Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seating, and in particular to a seat-back linkage type seat. Background Technology
[0002] As an indispensable part of daily life and work, seating is becoming increasingly functional. With the development of technology, people are paying more and more attention to the space utilization of seating, especially in public places such as conference rooms, theaters, and stadiums, where the space utilization of seating is crucial.
[0003] Existing chairs generally include components such as a backrest, armrests, and seat cushion. To reduce the space occupied by the chair, the seat cushion is usually designed to be flip-up, meaning it is mounted between the two armrests and can be folded up when not in use, thus reducing space usage. While this structure achieves some effect, the fixed, non-adjustable backrest takes up too much space. With limited row spacing, this reduces pedestrian access, hindering movement and evacuation, resulting in poor usability. Utility Model Content

[0035] The technical solutions provided by the various embodiments of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0036] See Figures 1 to 11 This utility model provides a seat with a linked backrest, including symmetrically arranged and spaced armrest seats 1, and a seat assembly 2 and a backrest assembly 3 hinged between the two armrest seats 1. The seat assembly 2 is located in front of the backrest assembly 3. The seat assembly 2 and the backrest assembly 3 are connected by a linkage mechanism, which is used to link the backrest assembly 3 to rotate and unfold when the seat assembly 2 is flipped open. The linkage mechanism includes a drive link 4 installed on one or both sides of the seat assembly 2. The drive link 4 is located inside the armrest seats 1, with one end connected to the seat assembly 2 and the other end hinged to the backrest assembly 3. A reset member is installed inside the seat assembly 2. When the occupant leaves, the reset member causes the seat assembly 2 to flip back to its original position. The seat assembly 2, through the drive link 4, drives the backrest assembly 3 to move towards the center and return to its original position, maintaining the seat assembly 2 and backrest assembly 3 in a folded-in state.
[0037] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a seat pivot 21 is mounted on the seat assembly 2, allowing the seat assembly 2 to rotate relative to the seat pivot 21. A support seat 11 is mounted on the armrest seat 1 and fixed to the seat pivot 21. Both ends of the seat pivot 21 are placed on the corresponding support seats 11 and fixed to them with rivets. One end of the drive linkage 4 is fixed to the outer wall of the seat assembly 2.
[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the drive linkage 4 includes a rocker arm 41 and an arc-shaped rod 42. One end of the rocker arm 41 is fixed to the outer wall of the seat assembly 2, and the rocker arm 41 can rotate with the seat assembly 2. The seat assembly 2 has metal connecting plates on both sides, and the rocker arm 41 can be fixed to the metal connecting plates by welding. One end of the arc-shaped rod 42 is hinged to the rocker arm 41, and the other end of the arc-shaped rod 42 is hinged to the backrest assembly 3.
[0039] When the seat assembly 2 is turned over to open, the seat assembly 2 rotates, the seat assembly 2 drives the rocker 41 to rotate, and the rocker 41 drives the backrest assembly 3 to rotate and unfold through the arc-shaped rod 42. When the passenger leaves, the seat assembly is returned to the original position under the action of the return member, the seat assembly drives the backrest assembly to return to the middle through the driving connecting rod, and the seat assembly and the backrest assembly are kept in the storage state of being close to the middle. After storage, the depth of the seat is reduced, the space for pedestrians to pass through is increased under the same row spacing, and the movement and evacuation of personnel are facilitated.
[0040] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the side end of the seat assembly 2 is provided with a first baffle 22, and the armrest seat 1 is provided with a first limiting plate 12 and a second limiting plate 13 for blocking the first baffle 22. The first baffle 22, the first limiting plate 12 and the second limiting plate 13 are all L-shaped. The first baffle 22 can move between the first limiting plate 12 and the second limiting plate 13. When the seat assembly 2 is turned over to open, the first baffle 22 is positioned on the first limiting plate 12 for limiting; when the seat assembly 2 is stored, the first baffle 22 is positioned on the second limiting plate 13 for limiting. Among them, the two sides of the first baffle 22 are respectively provided with first buffer pads 23, which can be made of plastic or silicone material, which can buffer when the first baffle 22 contacts the first limiting plate 12 and the second limiting plate 13, thereby reducing noise and weakening collision, and the use effect is good.
[0041] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 7 , the lower end of the backrest assembly 3 is provided with a connecting lug plate 31, the upper end of the connecting lug plate 31 is hinged to the armrest seat 1 through a hinge shaft 32, and one end of the driving connecting rod 4 is hinged to the lower end of the connecting lug plate 31.
[0042] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the side end of the backrest assembly 3 is provided with a second baffle 33, the second baffle 33 is in the shape of a trapezoid with one end open, and the armrest seat 1 is provided with a horizontal limiting rod 14 and a vertical limiting rod 15 for blocking the second baffle 33. When the backrest assembly 3 is unfolded, the second baffle 33 is positioned on the horizontal limiting rod 14 for limiting; when the backrest assembly 3 is stored, the second baffle 33 is positioned on the vertical limiting rod 15 for limiting. Among them, the two sides of the second baffle 33 are respectively provided with second buffer pads 34, which can be made of plastic or silicone material, which can buffer, thereby reducing noise and weakening collision.
[0043] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 8 and Figure 11As shown, the reset member 6 can be a spring. In order to increase the buffering damping effect, a buffering gas spring is installed in the seat assembly 2 on one side of the spring. A gas spring 5 is installed between the armrest seat 1 and the backrest assembly 3, one end of the gas spring 5 is hinged to the horizontal limiting rod 14 of the armrest seat 1, and the other end of the gas spring is connected with the backrest assembly 3, thereby increasing the buffering effect.
[0044] In some embodiments, as shown, Figure 4 As shown, the linkage mechanism is two groups and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the seat assembly 2; two groups of linkage mechanisms are adopted, the force is flat and horizontal, the structure is more stable, and the linkage effect is better.
[0045] In the specification, the same or similar parts among various embodiments can be referred to each other, and each embodiment focuses on the difference from other embodiments.
[0046] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or replacements within the technical range disclosed in the present application, which should be covered in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
