[0034] Compared with the existing technology, this office chair with footrest can freely adjust the distance of the elastic footrest 4 through the setting of the telescopic component 3, and the adjustment can be achieved by pulling and pulling, and the adjustment operation is simple and convenient; through the setting of the rotating shaft 2 and the adjustment mechanism 5, the angle between the telescopic component 3 and the seat cushion 11 can be adjusted in a portable manner, and the telescopic component 3 with adjusted angle can be limited and fixed in a portable manner, which is simple to operate. The overall angle change of the telescopic component 3 drives the change of the angle and position of the elastic footrest 4, which can better adapt to the human body structure, is more comfortable when used, and can better adapt to users of different heights to meet the usage needs of different users.
[0035] The process of using the office chair with a footrest of the present invention is as follows: first adjust the angle of the telescopic assembly 3 according to the needs of use, and then adjust the length of the telescopic assembly 3. The process of adjusting the angle of the telescopic assembly 3 is as follows: hold the handle 57 to withdraw the fixing column 55 from the fixing slot 111, pull the pull rod 54 upward through the fixing column 55, and the upward movement of the pull rod 54 drives the clamping plate 52 to rotate along the rotating column 58. The tooth groove 521 of the clamping plate 52 disengages from the adjusting gear 51, releasing the limit on the adjusting gear 51. At this time, the rotating shaft 2 can be freely rotated and the telescopic assembly 3 can be adjusted to the appropriate position. After the adjustment is completed, the clamping plate 52 is rotated by the pull rod 54, so that the tooth groove 521 engages with the adjusting gear 51, and the fixing column 55 is inserted back into the fixing slot 111, completing the adjustment and limit of the telescopic assembly 3. The process of adjusting the length of the telescopic assembly 3 is to grasp the telescopic bracket 33 and pull it outward or push it inward. When pulling it outward, the telescopic bracket 33 slides along the telescopic unit 32, which in turn slides along the telescopic rod 31. During this sliding process, the telescopic clamping post 36 is squeezed into the telescopic slot 35 by the force and the sidewalls of the telescopic slide 34, compressing the telescopic spring 37. When the length is adjusted to the desired value, gently shake the telescopic unit 32 or the telescopic bracket 33 back and forth, causing the telescopic clamping post 36 to pop out and engage with the nearby limit slot 341 under the force of the telescopic spring 37. The telescopic clamping post 36 will not separate from the limit slot 341 under the action of a small external force, thus achieving the locking and limiting function. Under the action of a large external force, the telescopic clamping post 36 can be disengaged from the limit slot 341 and moved horizontally.
[0036] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, with each embodiment focusing on the differences from other embodiments. Reference can be made to the common and similar parts between the various embodiments. For the devices disclosed in the embodiments, since they correspond to the methods disclosed in the embodiments, the description is relatively simple, and the relevant parts can be referred to the method description.
[0037] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements to the technical solutions of the present invention made by ordinary technicians in this field should fall within the scope of protection determined by the claims of the present invention.
