Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oscillator installation, and in particular to a foam embedded seat oscillator bracket. Background Art

[0002] A seat vibrator is a device that causes the seat to vibrate. Functionally, it primarily uses mechanical or electromechanical means to vibrate the seat in a specific pattern (e.g., frequency, amplitude, etc.). Mechanically, it typically consists of a power source and transmission components. The power source is typically a motor, which drives a transmission mechanism such as an eccentric or crankshaft connecting rod. For example, when the motor rotates, the eccentric's center of rotation is misaligned with the center of rotation, causing it to periodically move up and down. This movement is transmitted to the seat through connecting components, causing it to vibrate up and down. In practical applications, seat vibrators have a wide range of uses. In car seats, they can be used as part of a massage function, using different vibration settings to relieve fatigue. For example, some car seat massage functions offer multiple modes, such as wave-type vibration massage, which uses the seat vibrator to rhythmically vibrate different parts of the seat, simulating the effects of a manual massage, from the neck to the waist.

[0003] Existing screw-type mounting methods require a doghouse-shaped BOSS pillar formed into the interior. Due to structural strength requirements, the BOSS pillar design limits the space optimization of the actuator on the interior. Adhesive mounting methods often require a trade-off between bonding strength and ease of disassembly. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model proposes a foam-embedded seat vibrator bracket, which solves the problem that the design of the BOSS column in the related art limits the optimization of the space occupied by the exciter on the interior decoration part, and the bonding method often requires a trade-off between bonding strength and ease of disassembly.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is as follows:

[0006] A foam embedded seat vibrator bracket, used for installing and fixing the vibrator, comprising:

[0007] The clamping bracket has an installation space, and the inner wall of the clamping bracket has a plurality of clamping slots;

[0008] A snap ring, provided on a circumferential side wall of the oscillator;

[0009] There are a plurality of clamping blocks, which are spaced apart and arranged on the outer wall of the clamping ring. The clamping blocks are clamped with the clamping grooves.

[0010] Optionally, the clamping bracket has a fan-shaped opening for accommodating the connecting end of the oscillator and providing a moving space for the connecting end of the oscillator.

[0011] Optionally, the clamping groove is L-shaped and has an insertion opening with a length equal to that of the clamping block, and the inner wall further has an inner recess, and the clamping block has a protrusion for clamping with the inner recess.

[0012] Optionally, the clamping bracket comprises:

[0015] Optionally, the first circular ring body further has an annular through groove for passing through foam liquid.

[0016] Optionally, the clamping block is L-shaped, and the end of the clamping block has a guide inclined surface.

[0017] Optionally, the longitudinal section of the inner recess is trapezoidal, semicircular or rectangular, and the longitudinal section of the protrusion is consistent with the shape of the inner recess.

[0018] Optionally, the insertion opening is towards the top of the first circular ring body.

[0019] Optionally, the inner surface of the clamping ring is a friction surface.

[0020] The working principle and beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0021] In the utility model, when installing the oscillator, the oscillator with the clamping ring and the clamping block is aligned with the insertion opening of the clamping bracket, the oscillator is pushed in the axial direction, the clamping block slides into the insertion opening of the clamping groove, and the clamping block completely enters the clamping groove, at this time, the clamping bracket and the clamping ring are tightly connected through the clamping block and the clamping groove, and the oscillator is stably fixed in the installation space; when disassembling, force is applied in the reverse direction, the clamping block is separated from the clamping groove, and the oscillator can be removed. Compared with the traditional screwing mode, a complex doghouse structure BOSS column does not need to be arranged on the interior decoration, the interior decoration space is greatly saved, and the layout possibility of the exciter is optimized; compared with the bonding mode, the problem that the bonding strength and the disassembly convenience are difficult to balance does not exist, the oscillator can be firmly installed, and can be quickly disassembled when maintenance or replacement is required, so that the assembly and after-sales maintenance efficiency are improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] In order to more clearly illustrate the embodiments of the present invention or the technical solutions in the prior art, the specific implementation methods of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings and other implementation methods can be obtained based on these drawings without inventive work.

Furthermore, to simplify the drawings and facilitate understanding, in some figures, only one of the components with the same structure or function is schematically shown or labeled. In this document, "one" not only means "only one" but also "more than one," and "several" includes "two" and "more than two."

[0031] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed, detachable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct or indirect connections through an intermediary; and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0032] In addition, in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 5 , which is an embodiment of the present utility model, proposes a foam embedded seat vibrator bracket for installing and fixing the vibrator 1, including a clamping bracket 6 with an installation space 201, and a plurality of clamping grooves 7 on the inner wall of the clamping bracket 6; a clamping ring 2 is arranged on the circumferential side wall of the oscillator 1; there are a plurality of clamping blocks 3, and the plurality of clamping blocks 3 are arranged at intervals on the outer wall of the clamping ring 2, and the clamping blocks 3 are clamped with the clamping grooves 7.

[0034] In the above solution, the clamping bracket 6 is annular in shape, with an internal mounting space 201 specifically designed for the shape of the oscillator 1. Several slots 7 are evenly distributed on the inner wall, forming a stable clamping structure with the clamping block 3 to position and secure the oscillator 1. The clamping ring 2 tightly surrounds the circumferential sidewalls of the oscillator 1, while the clamping block 3 protrudes outward, corresponding to the slots 7 of the clamping bracket 6. The clamping assembly is completed by rotation. This combined structure is simple and compact, requiring no complex molding processes or additional large fixing structures.

[0035] Working process: When installing the oscillator 1, align the oscillator 1 with the snap ring 2 and the block 3 with the insertion port 6021 of the snap bracket 6, push the oscillator 1 axially, and make the block 3 slide along the insertion port 6021 of the slot 7 until the block 3 completely enters the slot 7. At this time, the snap bracket 6 and the snap ring 2 are tightly connected through the block 3 slot 7, and the oscillator 1 is firmly fixed in the installation space 201; when disassembling, apply force in the opposite direction to make the block 3 fall out of the slot 7, and the oscillator 1 can be removed.

[0036] Compared with the traditional screw connection method, there is no need to set up a complex doghouse structure BOSS column on the interior, which greatly saves interior space and optimizes the layout possibility of the exciter; compared with the bonding method, there is no problem of balancing bonding strength and disassembly convenience, which can not only ensure that the oscillator 1 is firmly installed, but also can be quickly disassembled when maintenance or replacement is needed, thereby improving assembly and after-sales maintenance efficiency.

[0037] Furthermore, the clamping bracket 6 has a fan-shaped opening 202 . The fan-shaped opening 202 is used to accommodate the connecting end 8 of the oscillator 1 , and the fan-shaped opening 202 is also used to provide a movable space for the connecting end 8 of the oscillator 1 .

[0038] In the above solution, a fan-shaped opening 202 is cut out of the clamping bracket 6. The opening size is designed based on the size and range of motion required for the connection end 8 of the oscillator 1. In addition to the existing ring-shaped and slot 7 structure of the clamping bracket 6, the newly added fan-shaped opening 202 breaks the limitations of the traditional closed ring, creating a dedicated area for accommodating and moving the connection end 8 of the oscillator 1. During installation, the oscillator 1 can be installed by rotating the vibrator to engage the clamping block 3 with the slot 7.

[0039] Working process: After the oscillator 1 is mounted on the clamping bracket 6, the connecting end 8 is located in the fan-shaped opening 202, and the clamping work is completed by rotating the connecting end 8 of the vibrator to the other side of the fan-shaped opening 202.

[0040] Furthermore, the card slot 7 is L-shaped and has an insertion opening 6021 , the length of the insertion opening 6021 is equal to the length of the card block 3 , and the inner wall also has a recess 701 , the card block 3 has a protrusion, and the protrusion is engaged with the recess 701 .

[0041] In the above scheme, during installation, the block 3 is aligned with the insertion opening 6021 and pushed until it fully enters. At this point, the oscillator 1 is slightly rotated, causing the block 3 to slide along the L-shaped slot 7, with the protrusion simultaneously engaging the recessed portion 701, completing the final locking. For removal, the block 3 is rotated in the opposite direction and removed. This simple and intuitive operation ensures uniform force distribution across all components, making them less susceptible to damage. This significantly enhances the stability of the connection between the bracket 6 and the oscillator 1, effectively preventing loosening and dislodging of components due to vehicle jolts and prolonged vibration, ensuring continued normal operation of the device. The L-shaped slot 7 and the recessed and raised protrusion design ensure a strong connection without adding excessive assembly difficulty, maintaining high assembly efficiency.

[0042] Furthermore, the clamping bracket 6 includes a first annular body 602, and the clamping groove 7 is arranged on the inner wall of the first annular body 602; the second annular body 601 is arranged on the circumference of the outer wall of the first annular body 602, the first annular body 602 and the second annular body 601 are arranged vertically, and the longitudinal section of the first annular body 602 and the second annular body 601 is T-shaped.

[0043] In the above scheme, the T-shaped longitudinal cross-section structure of the clamping bracket 6, the first circular body 602 is used to realize the clamping function of the oscillator 1, and the inner wall groove 7 is the core connection part; the second circular body 601 serves as an auxiliary support and installation structure, which increases the contact area between the bracket and the external seat sponge, disperses the force, and improves the overall stability. In addition, this vertical arrangement structure is compact and saves space.

[0044] Furthermore, the first annular body 602 also has an annular groove 3011, and the annular groove 3011 is used for passing the foam liquid.

[0045] In the above solution, the inner wall of the through-channel is smooth, ensuring smooth flow of the foam liquid without clogging or sticking to the wall. Transition radiuses are provided at both ends of the through-channel to facilitate liquid inlet and outlet, and the mold is integrally formed using an insert process. The annular through-channel 3011 utilizes the structure of the first annular body 602, providing a dedicated circulation channel for the foam liquid without interfering with the mounting function of the card slot 7 and the oscillator 1, ensuring that the foam liquid evenly penetrates the contact area between the bracket and the seat.

[0046] Working Process: During the seat foam filling process, liquid foam is injected under pressure from one end of the through-channel. The liquid foam enters the mold and slowly flows along the annular through-channel 3011, filling the mold completely and integrating the first annular body 602 with the foam. Once the liquid foam solidifies, it further enhances the overall structural stability while also leveraging the foam's sound-absorbing and noise-reducing properties. If the seat requires cleaning or replacement of the foam later, the through-channel also facilitates the introduction of cleaning fluids or disassembly tools. The through-channel helps evenly distribute the liquid foam, preventing localized accumulation or glue shortages, ensuring consistent product quality, and reducing defective product rates due to foam processing issues.

[0047] Furthermore, the clamping block 3 is L-shaped, and an end portion of the clamping block 3 has a guiding slope 5 .

[0048] In the above solution, the guiding slope 5 of the L-shaped block 3 at the starting end greatly reduces the resistance when the block 3 is inserted into the slot 7, which facilitates the assembly operation. Even in a narrow space or blind installation scenario, the position of the slot 7 can be quickly found by relying on the guidance of the slope, thereby improving the assembly efficiency.

[0049] Working process: When installing the oscillator 1, the guiding inclined surface 5 at the end of the card block 3 first contacts the edge of the card slot 7. As a slight pressure is applied, the inclined surface slides into the interior of the card slot 7. With the help of the inclined surface guiding effect, the card block 3 automatically aligns with the path of the card slot 7. No complicated adjustments are required afterwards to allow it to be fully embedded. The whole process is smooth and fluent, reducing wear on the surface of the components. When disassembling, the inclined surface also facilitates quick disengagement.

[0050] Furthermore, the longitudinal section of the inner recess 701 is trapezoidal, semicircular or rectangular, and the shape of the longitudinal section of the protrusion is consistent with the shape of the inner recess 701 .

[0051] In the above scheme, the inner recess 701 matches the protrusion shape, achieving different degrees of mechanical locking effect according to the different shape characteristics. The trapezoidal structure uses the beveled edge to guide the protrusion of the clamping block 3 to slide in, while the wide bottom edge provides stable support. The semicircular structure provides uniform clamping force in the circumferential direction. The rectangular structure is simple to manufacture, has a large mating surface, and can withstand large vertical tension. The diverse shape options meet the needs of different working conditions.

[0052] Furthermore, the insertion port 6021 faces the top of the first annular body 602 .

[0053] In the above solution, on the seat assembly line, workers holding the vibrator 1 can easily align the block 3 with the top insertion opening 6021, and the block smoothly enters the slot 7. This is an efficient and smooth operation. This improves production efficiency and reduces the risk of component damage caused by assembly difficulties. It also effectively blocks foreign matter, reduces the risk of connection failure caused by foreign matter getting stuck, and reduces equipment failure rates.

[0054] Furthermore, the inner surface of the snap ring 2 is a friction surface.

[0055] In the above scheme, the friction surface increases the friction between the retaining ring 2 and the inner surface of the oscillator 1. Without changing the basic structure and assembly method of the two, it provides additional reliable circumferential resistance to prevent the retaining ring 2 from generating relative rotation or displacement during the working vibration of the oscillator 1, thereby enhancing the overall connection stability. The fine texture does not affect the performance and appearance of the oscillator 1 itself.

[0056] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all of these should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
