DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a mechanical lifting backrest bracket includes a base 8, a slide rail 3, a movable cross bar 5, a lifting bracket 2, an unlocking device, and a lifting device; a fixed cross beam 9 is provided between the base 8, and the movable cross bar 5 is provided at the top of the base 8. The lifting device is a free-style gas spring, the cylinder of the free-style gas spring is connected to the middle part of the fixed cross beam 9, and the output end of the free-style gas spring is connected to the middle part of the movable cross bar 5; the two ends of the movable cross bar 5 are fixedly connected to the lifting bracket 2; the unlocking device cooperates with the lifting bracket 2. In the unlocked state, the output end of the free-style gas spring drives the movable cross bar 5 to rise and fall along the slide rail 3. In the locked state, the output end of the free-style gas spring cannot drive the movable cross bar 5 to rise and fall.

[0027] In this embodiment, the upper end of the lifting bracket 2 is fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the movable crossbar 5, and the slide rail 3 is fixed between the base 8 and the lifting bracket 2. The lifting bracket 2 can slide up and down along the slide rail 3. This structure ensures that the lifting bracket 2 slides along the direction of the slide rail 3 during the lifting process, plays a guiding role, and ensures smooth sliding.

[0028] In this embodiment, a locking notch 11 is provided at the lower part of the lifting bracket 2, and the unlocking device includes an unlocking cross bar 7, an unlocking rocker 12, a lock buckle 14 and a tension spring 1. The two ends of the unlocking cross bar 7 are respectively fixedly connected to the upper end of the unlocking rocker 12, and the lower end of the unlocking rocker 12 is fixedly connected to the lock buckle 14, and is hinged to the base 8 through a rotating shaft 17. When the unlocking rocker 12 is rotated, the lock buckle 14 is driven to rotate at the same time; a raised locking column 13 is provided on the lock buckle 14, one end of the tension spring 1 is fixed to the base 8, and the other end is connected to the locking column 13. When the locking column 13 is located in the locking notch 11, the lifting and lowering movement of the lifting bracket 2 is restricted; when the locking column 13 is out of the locking notch 11, the lifting bracket 2 can be lifted and lowered.

[0029] In this embodiment, a slope 16 is provided on the lower part of the lifting bracket 2 on the side facing the lock buckle 14. The setting of the slope 16 allows the locking column 13 to slowly climb along the slope 16 when the lifting bracket 2 is reset downward, slowly pulling the tension spring 1 apart, thereby avoiding the situation where the tension spring 1 and the lifting bracket 2 are stuck due to direct pulling apart.

[0030] In this embodiment, Figure 6 As shown, a latch 15 or a retaining spring is provided on the rotating shaft 17, and a wear-resistant gasket 18 is provided between the latch 15 or the retaining spring and the base 8. This structure prolongs the service life of the parts.

[0031] In this embodiment, the left and right ends of the unlocking cross bar 7 are fixedly connected to the unlocking rocker 12 respectively. The unlocking rocker 12 is provided at both ends of the unlocking cross bar 7, which increases the stability of locking and unlocking the unlocking cross bar 7 and avoids the uneven force when the human body hits the unlocking cross bar 7 during use, causing the unlocking cross bar 7 to twist, resulting in an erroneous triggering state.

[0032] In this embodiment, the fixed crossbeam 9 and the movable crossbar 5 are both provided with a connecting frame base 10 in the middle. The cylinder and output end of the free-style gas spring are respectively hinged to these two connecting frame bases 10 via pins. This structure allows the pneumatic spring to extend and retract with a certain degree of rotational flexibility, avoiding the problem of the movable crossbeam being stuck during the raising and lowering of the movable crossbeam.

[0033] In this embodiment, a sofa backrest mounting seat 4 is provided on the movable cross bar 5 or the lifting bracket 2, and the sofa backrest mounting seat 4 is used for being installed and connected to the sofa backrest.

[0034] Working principle, such as Figure 7As shown, during use of the lifting mechanism of the utility model, the user impacts the backrest with a certain force, causing the internal filling of the backrest to collapse and drive the unlocking crossbar 7 to move backward. The unlocking crossbar 7 then drives the unlocking rocker 12 to rotate, and the lock buckle 14 rotates simultaneously. The locking post 13 located at the lock buckle 14 disengages from the locked position of the locking notch 11. The movable crossbar 5, under the action of the free-style gas spring, drives the entire backrest to move diagonally upward along the slide rail 3, thereby achieving the sofa backrest bracket driving the sofa backrest to rise. To lower the backrest, a downward force is generally applied from above the backrest, and the described lifting bracket 2 moves downward until the backrest descends to the locked position. At this time, the locking post 13, under the action of the tension spring 1, is engaged in the locking notch 11, and the lifting bracket 2 is locked and no longer moves.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] This embodiment differs from the comparative document 1 in that the unlocking device is a sensor device 20, and the lifting device is an electric push rod 19. The sensor device 20 can be a pressure sensor or a sensor device with a micro switch, installed between the unlocking device and the base 8. When the user hits the backrest with a certain force, the unlocking device is triggered, causing the sensor device to sense the impact signal and then send a signal to the circuit board (the circuit board serves as the control center). The circuit board then sends the execution command to perform the lifting to the lifting device (here, the electric push rod 19), and the electric push rod 19 performs the lifting.

[0037] In the description of the specification of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "upper end", "lower end", "left and right ends", "lower part", etc. indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0038] In this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, the term "connection" and other terms should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can mean fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it.
