[0025] The present invention will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 1 This is a perspective view of the present invention, specifically a perspective view of the upper seat frame assembly 2 in its rearmost position. Figure 2 This is another perspective view of the present invention, namely, a perspective view of the upper frame assembly 2 of the seat cushion in the most forward position. Figure 3 This is a perspective view of the backrest assembly of this utility model after folding. Figure 4 This is another perspective view of the backrest assembly after folding. The present invention provides a folding seat with a sliding function, including a lower seat frame assembly 1, an upper seat frame assembly 2, a backrest assembly 3, a drive unit 4, and an adjuster 5. The lower seat frame assembly 1 is connected to the vehicle body, the upper seat frame assembly 2 is connected to the lower seat frame assembly 1 and can move back and forth, the lower seat frame assembly 1 and the upper seat frame assembly 2 form a seat cushion assembly, the backrest assembly 3 is connected to the upper seat frame assembly 2, the drive unit 4 is disposed on the lower seat frame assembly 1 and connected to the upper seat frame assembly 2, the drive unit 4 is used to drive the upper seat frame assembly 2 to move back and forth, the adjuster 5 is disposed on the backrest assembly 3, the backrest assembly 3 is folded forward onto the seat cushion assembly through the adjuster 5, and then the seat cushion assembly and the backrest assembly 3 flip backward into the corresponding recess on the vehicle body.

[0027] In one embodiment, the drive unit 4 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lower seat frame assembly 1. The drive unit 4 includes a drive motor 41, a linkage mechanism 42, and a connecting rod 43. The drive motor 41 is preferably a lead screw motor. The linkage mechanism 42 is connected to the upper seat frame assembly 2, the lower seat frame assembly 1, and the drive motor 41. The drive motor 41 drives the linkage mechanism 42 to move, and the linkage mechanism 42 drives the upper seat frame assembly 2 to move. In a preferred embodiment, a connecting rod 43 is provided. One end is rotatably connected to the lower seat frame assembly 1, and the other end is connected to the drive motor 41. When the drive motor 41 is a lead screw motor, the other end is connected to the lead screw of the drive motor 41. The main body of the drive motor 41 is rotatably connected to the middle of the linkage mechanism 42. When the drive motor 41 is working, the main body of the drive motor 41 moves away from or close to the connecting rod 43, thereby pushing the linkage mechanism 42 to move. The two ends of the linkage mechanism 42 are respectively connected to the upper seat frame assembly 2 and the lower seat frame assembly 1, thereby driving the upper seat frame assembly 2 to move back and forth.

[0028] In one embodiment, a slide rail mechanism (not shown) is also included. The slide rail mechanism is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the rear of the lower seat frame assembly 1 and connects the upper seat frame assembly 2 and the lower seat frame assembly 1, so that the upper seat frame assembly 2 can slide more stably on the lower seat frame assembly 1.
