In order to improve the comfort of sitting, a strip-shaped seat front air bag 7 is arranged at the front of the seat cushion, and a seat right rear air bag 5 and a seat left rear air bag 6 are symmetrically arranged at the rear of the seat cushion. The seat front air bag 7, the seat right rear air bag 5 and the seat left rear air bag 6 almost occupy the entire seat cushion. An upper back air bag 2 and a lower back air bag 3 are arranged above and below the backrest respectively. The upper back air bag 2 and the lower back air bag 3 almost occupy the entire backrest. A head air bag 1 is arranged in the headrest.

[0025] The air bag is a flat inflation mechanism, needs to have air tightness, and has enough flexibility to support the driver, each air bag is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet, each air inlet is connected with a gas distribution valve through an independent pipeline, the gas distribution valve is connected with a gas storage tank, high pressure gas stored in the gas storage tank is used to inflate the air bag, similar to the gas supply principle of gas spring, which can greatly improve the inflation efficiency, the gas storage tank is matched with a gas pump for inflating the gas storage tank, which can reduce the continuous working time of the gas pump (or compressor), the gas pump only needs to supplement the gas when the pressure of the gas storage tank is lower than the set value.

[0026] Each air outlet is connected with an independent pressure relief valve through an independent pipeline, the pressure relief valve can quickly release the pressure of the corresponding air bag, and the high inflation can make the pressure change of each air bag extremely fast, so as to meet different control requirements. A (gas) pressure sensor can be arranged at each interface of the gas distribution valve, so that the pressure conditions in each air bag and the gas storage tank can be monitored, each pressure sensor is connected and outputs an induction signal to a seat control unit, the seat control unit is connected and outputs a control signal to the gas pump, the gas distribution valve and each pressure relief valve, so that the seat controller can control the inflation (pressure) state of each air bag.

[0027] The armrest is provided with a connection seat control unit interactive control unit, which can be a touch screen, which can manually adjust the state of the seat according to the needs, including the position state of the seat and the inflation state of each air bag on the seat, in addition, a plurality of gravity pressure sensors are distributed on the surface of the seat cushion, which can be uniformly distributed in a matrix on the surface of the seat, each pressure sensor is connected and outputs an induction signal to the seat controller, the weight distribution and sitting angle information of the driver can be obtained, which can be used as an input parameter of intelligent control of the system.

[0028] The adjusting base 4 includes a sliding seat connected to the seat cushion bottom surface and a fixed seat fixed on the deck, the fixed seat is provided with a sliding rail, the sliding seat is fixed in the sliding rail through a sliding block, the sliding seat can slide along the sliding rail, the extension direction of the sliding rail is the axial direction of the ship, so the distance between the seat body and the operating table can be controlled, the fixed seat is provided with an electric cylinder for driving the sliding block to move along the sliding rail, the seat control unit is connected to and outputs a control signal to the electric cylinder, so that electric sliding can be realized, a lifting mechanism is arranged between the sliding seat and the seat cushion, the lifting mechanism is four electric lifting rods fixed on the sliding seat and the seat cushion bottom surface respectively, that is, one electric lifting rod is vertically fixed at each corner, the electric lifting rod has a short and thick structure to reliably support the seat cushion, the seat control unit is connected to and outputs a control signal to each electric lifting rod, and the four electric lifting rods can realize inclination of the seat in different directions, which can be used to offset the heaving of the ship and improve the riding comfort, for example, an inclination sensor for collecting the horizontal inclination angle can be arranged in the system, and the inclination sensor is connected to and outputs a sensing signal to the seat control unit. The inclination angle can be controlled manually or automatically adjusted in real time, for example, ship state monitoring and adjustment:

[0029] (1) Monitor the state of the ship according to the ship roll angle, pitch angle and heave intensity.

[0030] (2) According to the monitored data, the control unit automatically adjusts the inclination angle of the seat to maintain the balance and comfort of the driver.

[0031] Control the adjusted lateral compensation angle = - ship roll angle

[0032] Control the adjusted lateral compensation angle = - ship pitch angle

[0033] According to the detected heave data, the control unit automatically adjusts the bottom lifting pump of the seat.

[0034] Compensate for the lifting height = - ship heave height

[0035] Of course, the air bag can also be manually adjusted, and can also be automatically adjusted in real time, for example, the driver posture monitoring and seat air bag adjustment:

[0036] (1) The seat bottom sensor (3, front, left rear and right rear) detects the weight distribution of the driver.

[0037] (2) The seat back sensor (3, headrest of the seat back, upper half of the seat back, lower half of the seat back) detects the sitting angle of the driver.

[0038] (3) According to the monitored data, the control unit adjusts the support point position and force of the seat bottom to provide better support and stability.

[0039] When the driver first sits on the seat, the driver is prompted to sit straight and naturally lean against the backrest, the driver can adjust the air bag inflation degree according to the feeling and set the program memory, and the air bag pressure is the initial value at this time.

[0040] When the six air bags change due to the change of the driver's posture, such as leaning to the left, leaning to the right, and kicking the legs, the air bag pressure changes due to the change of the body pressure distribution, and the air bag inflates and deflates through the inflation and deflation system to make the air pressure reach the initial value set again.

[0041] The application is described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it is obvious that the specific implementation of the application is not limited by the above-mentioned mode, as long as various non-essential improvements are made by adopting the method concept and technical scheme of the application, or the concept and technical scheme of the application is directly applied to other occasions without improvement, which is within the protection scope of the application.
