The first connecting shell 1 is mounted on the mounting surface 810 and forms a first armrest surface 110, the second connecting shell 2 is rotatably mounted on the first connecting shell 1 around a set axis and forms a second armrest surface 210, and the first locking assembly 3 is disposed between the first connecting shell 1 and the second connecting shell 2 and has a locked state and an unlocked state. The set axis extends along the width direction of the chair, and the second connecting shell 2 rotates relative to the first connecting shell 1 around the set axis to change the angle between the second armrest surface 210 and the first armrest surface 110.
[0054] The first locking assembly 3 in this embodiment has the following functions: the first locking assembly 3 locks the first connecting shell 1 relative to the second connecting shell 2 in the locked state, and the first locking assembly 3 allows the first connecting shell 1 to rotate relative to the second connecting shell 2 in the unlocked state to adjust the angle between the first armrest surface 110 and the second armrest surface 210.
[0055] The seat armrest provided by the embodiment is designed as two parts of a first connecting shell 1 and a second connecting shell 2, and the armrest surface of the armrest body is designed as two parts of a first armrest surface 110 and a second armrest surface 210. The second connecting shell 2 is rotationally connected to the first connecting shell 1, so that the included angle between the first armrest surface 110 and the second armrest surface 210 can be adjusted by rotating the second connecting shell 2 relative to the first connecting shell 1, and the first connecting shell 1 can be locked relative to the second connecting shell 2 by the first locking assembly 3, so that the included angle between the first armrest surface 110 and the second armrest surface 210 is maintained at a desired angle. In some use scenarios, the first armrest surface 110 and the second armrest surface 210 at a certain angle can support the elbows and arms of the user, respectively, to meet the user's use requirements.
[0056] In the embodiment, the first locking assembly 3 includes a fixed block 30, a locking piece 31, and a first elastic piece 32. Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1, the first locking assembly 3 includes a fixed block 30, a locking piece 31, and a first elastic piece 32. The fixed block 30 is fixed to the first connecting shell 1, and the fixed block 30 is formed with a plurality of clamping teeth 300 distributed circumferentially along a specified axis. The first connecting shell 1 in the embodiment includes a first lower shell 10 and a first upper shell 11, and the first upper shell 11 is buckled on the first lower shell 10 to form an internal space of the first connecting shell 1. The fixed block 30 is fixedly arranged on the bottom wall of the first lower shell 10. The locking piece 31 is movably arranged on the second connecting shell 2 and is formed with engagement teeth 310 engaged with the clamping teeth 300. The engagement teeth 310 are engaged into the clamping teeth 300 when the first locking assembly 3 is in a locked state and are disengaged from the clamping teeth 300 when the first locking assembly 3 is in an unlocked state. The locking piece 31 is configured to be actuated and disengaged from the clamping teeth 300 in response to an external force, and the first elastic piece 32 acts on the locking piece 31 to make the engagement teeth 310 have a tendency to engage into the clamping teeth 300. Thus, the engagement teeth 310 can be switched between the states of engaging into the clamping teeth 300 and disengaging from the clamping teeth 300 by the cooperation of the button 33 and the first elastic piece 32, and the first locking assembly 3 can be switched between the locked state and the unlocked state.
[0057] Further, the first locking assembly 3 in the embodiment further comprises a transmission mechanism arranged in the second connecting shell 2, the transmission mechanism comprises a button 33 and a push-pull rod 34, the button 33 is rotationally arranged on the second connecting shell 2 and swings between a first position and a second position relative to the second connecting shell 2, one end of the push-pull rod 34 is movably hinged with the button 33, and the other end of the push-pull rod 34 is movably hinged with the locking piece 31. In the process of swinging from the first position to the second position, the button 33 pulls the locking piece 31 to act through the push-pull rod 34 and makes the meshing teeth 310 disengage from the clamping teeth 300, and in the process of swinging from the second position to the first position, the button 33 pushes the locking piece 31 to act through the push-pull rod 34 and makes the meshing teeth 310 engage in the clamping teeth 300. In use, the user presses the button 33 to make the button 33 swing against the action of the first elastic piece 32, since one end of the push-pull rod 34 is movably hinged with the button 33, the push-pull rod 34 is driven to act, at the same time, the push-pull rod 34 drives the locking piece 31 to act relative to the fixed block 30, so that the meshing teeth 310 disengage from the clamping teeth 300. After the user removes the force on the button 33, the button 33 is reset under the action of the first elastic piece 32, correspondingly, the push-pull rod 34 returns to the original position under the reset swing action of the button 33, and drives the locking piece 31 to act relative to the fixed block 30, so that the meshing teeth 310 engage in the clamping teeth 300.
[0058] The first elastic piece 32 in the embodiment is arranged between the second connecting shell 2 and the button 33 and presses the button 33 to have a tendency to swing to the first position. Specifically, the first elastic piece 32 in the embodiment is a torsion spring.
[0059] As shown in FIG. Figure 3 In the embodiment, the second connecting shell 2 is designed to include a second lower shell 20 and a second upper shell 21, the second upper shell 21 is buckled on the second lower shell 20, and the two enclose an internal space of the second connecting shell 2. The push-pull rod 34, the first elastic piece 32 and the button 33 are all arranged in the second connecting shell 2, and an opening is arranged on the second lower shell 20 for the button 33 to extend out of the second connecting shell 2 to the outside, so as to facilitate the user to press the button 33 from the outside.
[0060] In order to make the meshing teeth 310 more easily engage in the clamping teeth 300, the action stroke of the locking piece 31 is limited in the embodiment, specifically, the seat armrest provided in the embodiment further comprises a limiting shell 22 arranged in the second connecting shell 2, the limiting shell 22 forms a limiting channel 220, and the locking piece 31 is slidingly arranged in the limiting channel 220.
[0061] As mentioned above, in some specific application scenarios, the user desires that the first handrail surface 110 and the second handrail surface 210 have a certain angle, but in more common application scenarios, the user still desires that the first handrail surface 110 and the second handrail surface 210 are parallel to each other. To this end, the second connecting shell 2 in the embodiment can be rotated relative to the first connecting shell 1 to make the first handrail surface 110 and the second handrail surface 210 be in the same plane, so as to meet the general needs of the user. Further, in combination with the description in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , one of the one end of the first connecting shell 1 and the one end of the second connecting shell 2 is formed with an arc-shaped slot 111, and the other is formed with an arc-shaped protrusion 23 matched with the arc-shaped slot 111. The arc-shaped protrusion 23 and the arc-shaped slot 111 are rotationally matched to make the gap between the first handrail surface 110 and the second handrail surface 210 be less than a set distance when the first handrail surface 110 and the second handrail surface 210 are parallel. The set distance is a selected value less than 2 mm. This setting can reduce the gap between the first handrail surface 110 and the second handrail surface 210, and can better support the user's arm.
[0062] In the embodiment, the arc-shaped slot 111 is arranged on the first connecting shell 1, and correspondingly, the arc-shaped protrusion 23 is arranged on the second connecting shell 2. It is easy to understand that in other alternative embodiments, the arc-shaped slot 111 can also be arranged on the second connecting shell 2, and correspondingly, the arc-shaped protrusion 23 is arranged on the first connecting shell 1.
[0063] Further, the seat armrest provided by the embodiment also has the function of height adjustment. In combination with the description in Figure 4 , the mounting structure includes a mounting plate 4, a first connecting arm 5, a second connecting arm 6, and a second locking assembly 7. The mounting plate 4 is used to be mounted with the seat frame of the seat. The first connecting arm 5 is arranged on the mounting plate 4, and in the embodiment, the first connecting arm 5 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 4. The second connecting arm 6 is arranged in a sliding manner relative to the first connecting arm 5 along a set direction, and the armrest body is arranged at the top end of the second connecting arm 6. The set direction is the height direction of the seat, so when the second connecting arm 6 slides relative to the first connecting arm 5, the armrest body will change its position along the height direction relative to the seat frame.
[0064] The second locking assembly 7 is arranged between the first connecting arm 5 and the second connecting arm 6 and has a first state and a second state, the second locking assembly 7 locks the first connecting arm 5 relative to the second connecting arm 6 in the first state, and the second locking assembly 7 allows the second connecting arm 6 to slide relative to the first connecting arm 5 in the second state. That is, when the height position of the handrail body needs to be adjusted, the second locking assembly 7 is first switched to the second state, then the second connecting arm 6 is slid relative to the first connecting arm 5 until the handrail body moves to the target height, and then the second locking assembly 7 is switched to the first state to lock the first connecting arm 5 and the second connecting arm 6.
[0065] Specifically, the second locking assembly 7 in the embodiment includes a swing rod 70 and a reset member 72. The second connecting arm 6 is formed with a sliding cavity, and the second connecting arm 6 is slidably sleeved outside the first connecting arm 5 through the sliding cavity inside the second connecting arm 6. An internal space is formed in the first connecting arm 5, and the swing rod 70 is arranged in the internal space of the first connecting arm 5. The swing rod 70 is provided with a rotating shaft 71, both ends of the rotating shaft 71 are arranged outside the internal space of the first connecting arm 5 and are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sliding cavity. Thus, the swing rod 70 is rotatably arranged in the second connecting arm 6 through the rotating shaft 71. One end of the swing rod 70 is formed with a pulling portion 700 extending to the outside of the second connecting arm 6, and the other end of the swing rod 70 is formed with a clamping portion 701. A plurality of clamping holes 50 distributed along the height direction are arranged on the first connecting arm 5. When the clamping portion 701 is clamped into the clamping hole 50, the first connecting arm 5 and the second connecting arm 6 are locked. When the user presses the pulling portion 700 from the outside, the swing rod 70 will swing to make the clamping portion 701 come out of the clamping hole 50. The reset member 72 is arranged between the pulling portion 700 and the second connecting arm 6 and presses the pulling portion 700 so that the clamping portion 701 has a tendency to be clamped into the clamping hole 50. Specifically, the reset member 72 is a compression spring, one end of the compression spring is pressed to the pulling portion 700, and the other end of the compression spring is pressed to the top inner wall of the sliding cavity.
[0066] Further, the seat armrest provided by the embodiment can also adjust the handrail body relative to the second connecting arm 6 in the plane rotation and the front and back movement. As shown in FIG. 6, the second connecting arm 6 is provided with a plurality of clamping holes 60 distributed along the height direction, and the first connecting arm 5 is provided with a plurality of clamping holes 50 distributed along the height direction. When the clamping portion 701 of the swing rod 70 is clamped into the clamping hole 60, the second connecting arm 6 is locked relative to the first connecting arm 5. When the clamping portion 701 of the swing rod 70 is clamped into the clamping hole 50, the second connecting arm 6 is locked relative to the first connecting arm 5. Thus, the seat armrest can adjust the handrail body relative to the second connecting arm 6 in the plane rotation and the front and back movement. Figure 5As shown in FIG. 1, the top end of the second connecting arm 6 in the embodiment forms a first protrusion 60, and the mounting structure further comprises an intermediate shell 8, a connecting block 82, a first clamping block 83 and a second elastic member 84. The intermediate shell 8 comprises a first bottom shell 80 forming a first cavity and a first cover plate 81 arranged on the first bottom shell 80, the first bottom shell 80 forms a first through hole 800 and a surrounding barrier on the bottom wall, the surrounding barrier is annular, the inner wall of the surrounding barrier forms a plurality of first tooth grooves 801 distributed in the circumferential direction, and the first connecting shell 1 is arranged on the first cover plate 81. The connecting block 82 is arranged in the surrounding barrier and forms a first circular shaft 820 rotationally matched with the first through hole 800, the first circular shaft 820 is provided with a first key groove, and the first protrusion 60 is keyed with the first key groove. The first clamping block 83 is arranged on the connecting block 82 and can be engaged with the first tooth grooves 801, and the second elastic member 84 is arranged between the connecting block 82 and the first clamping block 83 and presses the first clamping block 83 so that the first clamping block 83 has a tendency to be clamped into the first tooth grooves 801. It should be noted that the above-mentioned engagement in the embodiment refers to the action of the first clamping block 83 clamped into and out of the first tooth grooves 801 under external action, and the principle is specifically described as follows: Figure 5 As shown in FIG. 1, the first clamping block 83 is provided with an engagement part 830 for engaging with the first tooth grooves 801, and the engagement part 830 is provided with a guide arc surface, and correspondingly, the first tooth grooves 801 have a shape matched with the engagement part 830. When external force is transmitted to the first clamping block 83, part of the force will act on the second elastic member 84 under the interaction of the guide arc surface of the engagement part 830 and the inner wall surface of the first tooth grooves 801, so that the first clamping block 83 can overcome the action of the second elastic member 84 and be out of the first tooth grooves 801. After the external force is removed, the first clamping block 83 can be clamped into the corresponding first tooth grooves 801 under the action of the second elastic member 84.
[0067] Through the above structure design, the intermediate shell 8 and the handrail body arranged on the intermediate shell 8 can be kept stable relative to the second connecting arm 6 by clamping the first clamping block 83 into the first tooth grooves 801. When it is needed to rotate the intermediate shell 8 relative to the second connecting arm 6, the user can press the intermediate shell 8 or the handrail body, so that the first clamping block 83 can overcome the action of the second elastic member 84 and be out of one first tooth groove 801, and after the intermediate shell 8 is rotated relative to the second connecting arm 6, the first clamping block 83 can be clamped into the next adjacent first tooth groove 801 under the action of the second elastic member 84. Repeating the above process can rotate the handrail body and the intermediate shell 8 to the desired position.
[0068] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown in , the armrest body in this embodiment can also rotate horizontally and move forward and backward relative to the intermediate shell 8. Specifically, in this embodiment, the mounting surface 810 is formed at the top of the first cover plate 81, and the mounting surface 810 is formed with a second through-hole 811. A second protrusion 100 is provided at the bottom of the first connecting shell 1. The seat armrest also includes a connecting frame 85, a positioning plate 12, a second clamping block 13, and a third elastic member 14. The connecting frame 85 is disposed within the intermediate shell 8 and has circumferentially distributed second tooth grooves 850 formed therein. The positioning plate 12 is rotatably disposed within the connecting frame 85 and has a second circular shaft 120 formed therein that rotatably engages with the second through-hole 811. The second circular shaft 120 is provided with a second keyway, and the second protrusion 100 is keyed to the second keyway. The second clamping block 13 is disposed on the positioning plate 12 and can mesh with the second tooth groove 850. The third elastic member 14 is disposed between the positioning plate 12 and the second clamping block 13 and applies pressure to the second clamping block 13 so that the second clamping block 13 tends to be clamped into the second tooth groove 850 .
[0069] Through the above structural design, the user can apply a certain force to the first connecting shell 1 to enable the first connecting shell 1 to drive the positioning plate 12 to rotate relative to the intermediate shell 8 (and the connecting frame 85).
