Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seating product technology, and in particular to a seat with an adjustable headrest. Background Technology
[0002] Chairs are essential furniture in people's lives, work, and studies. Traditional chairs lack headrests, making it inconvenient to lean back and negatively impacting the cervical spine. To address this, chairs with headrests were designed. However, existing headrests are fixed to the backrest, which is not universally suitable for users of different heights. Tall users may find the headrest too low, while shorter users may find it too high. Therefore, chairs with adjustable headrests have been designed. For example, Chinese utility model CN202221778873.1 discloses an adjustable headrest for a chair, which uses a height adjustment mechanism between the movable headrest and the chair back, allowing the headrest to move up and down to change its position. However, the technical solution provided by this patent has the following problems: First, its height adjustment mechanism is mainly located on the headrest, and the headrest is generally small in height, which results in a small adjustment range and makes it difficult to adjust it very low, which is not user-friendly for shorter users; Second, the structure of its height adjustment mechanism is relatively complex and its stability is poor, especially the hook fixing method, which is prone to damage and causes the headrest to fall off; Third, relying on the friction between the movable headrest and the headrest (backrest) to position the movable headrest is not very effective, and the headrest is prone to slipping off. Especially when used in schools, students often touch the headrest, making it difficult to keep the headrest in a high position. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a seat with a liftable headrest that features a simpler structure, a more rational design, higher stability in assembly and positioning, and a wider adjustment range.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a seat with a liftable headrest, comprising a seat plate, a backrest, a headrest, and a footrest, wherein the seat plate and the backrest are respectively mounted on the footrest, and the headrest is movably mounted on the backrest. The seat plate is characterized by having a sliding groove in the backrest, with a guide hole on the front of the groove, the guide hole being located on the front of the backrest, and the opening width of the guide hole being smaller than the width of the groove. A sliding foot is fixed to the back of the headrest via a fixing arm, the sliding foot being embedded in the groove, and the fixing arm passing through the guide hole to connect the sliding foot and the headrest. Several positioning holes are provided in the groove, and a flexible positioning pin is provided on the sliding foot. When the headrest slides until the positioning pin aligns with any positioning hole, the positioning pin engages with the positioning hole to achieve positioning of the headrest.
[0005] Furthermore, a slide rail is provided on the back of the backrest, with a slide groove located in the slide rail and a positioning hole located on the back of the slide rail.
[0006] Preferably, the positioning pin adopts a columnar or spherical structure, with an arc-shaped head at its front end. The positioning pin is installed inside the sliding foot by a spring and protrudes backward.
[0007] Preferably, both the slide rail and the sliding foot include two rails, with the two rails extending downwards from the top of the backrest to near the bottom, and the two sliding feet installed near the bottom of the headrest.
[0008] Furthermore, a slot is opened at the top of the slide rail, and the slot is located at the top of the backrest. The sliding foot is inserted into the slide groove through the slot.
[0009] Furthermore, an end cap is installed in the groove to seal the slide and cover the sliding foot inside the slide.
[0010] Furthermore, a buckle is provided on the side wall of the end cap, and a slot is provided on the slide rail to match the buckle. The end cap and the slide rail are locked together by the buckle engaging the slot.
[0011] Furthermore, a fixing seat is provided on the back of the backrest, and the backrest is assembled and fixed to the legs by a fixing rod inserted into the fixing seat.
[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a footrest, which is movably mounted below the seat plate via a footrest bracket.
[0013] This invention mounts the headrest onto the backrest by embedding a sliding foot into a slide rail. The sliding foot can only be pulled out from the top and will not fall off, resulting in higher assembly stability and a simpler structure. The slide rail, located on the backrest, can be quite long, allowing for a wider adjustment range to accommodate more people's needs. The headrest is positioned using a positioning pin that engages with positioning holes on the slide rail, providing better positioning stability. A greater force is required to raise or lower the headrest, preventing it from slipping off with minimal contact. Attached Figure Description
