The pre-pressing resisting section 231 of the elastic member 230 is substantially in the shape of a circular arc, and the first and second legs 233 and 234 are parallel to each other and extend along the axial direction of the circular arc. In other embodiments, the pre-pressing resisting section 231 can also be substantially in the shape of a square, a parallelogram, a triangle, an ellipse, a pentagon, a hexagon or any other shape, which is not limited here.

[0094] The first mounting hole 211 and the second mounting hole 221 can be round, square, strip-shaped, or other shapes, and can be through holes or blind holes. Of course, in some embodiments, the first mounting hole 211 and the second mounting hole 221 can also be designed as a first notch 213 and a second notch 223. The first notch 213 and the second notch 223 are respectively located at the ends of the first wedge 210 and the second wedge 220 that are close to each other, and the openings of the first notch 213 and the second notch 223 are arranged opposite to each other.

[0095] Optionally, the pre-compression support section 231 includes a middle section 232, the midpoint of which is located on the centerline 201; the first support leg 233 and the second support leg 234 are symmetrically arranged about the centerline 201. Optionally, the middle section 232 can be an arc segment, a straight segment, or a combination of both; no specific limitation is made here.

[0096] Please combine Figure 3 , Figure 9 The cam ring 150 is provided with a preload member 240, which protrudes from the outer circumferential surface of the cam ring 150. The preload member 240 and the cam ring 150 are integrally formed. Of course, the preload member 240 and the cam ring 150 can also be connected separately, such as by snap-fit, bonding, insertion, sleeve, riveting, magnetic adsorption, welding, threaded connection or bolt connection, etc., without specific limitations. The preload member 240 is provided with a groove 242, which can be an arc groove or a straight groove. The middle part 232 of the elastic member 230 is located in the groove 242, and the groove 242 limits the elastic member 230. The preload member 240 and the elastic member 230 are interference-fitted, and the preload member 240 causes the elastic member 230 to deform and generate prestress.

[0097] The pre-compression member 240 has a bearing surface 241 or a plurality of abrasion points spaced apart. The bearing surface 241 or the plurality of abrasion points abut against the middle part 232. That is, the middle part 232 may have one abrasion position or multiple abrasion positions.

[0098] Please combine Figure 10 The middle part 232 of the elastic member 230 and the pre-compression member 240 are in surface contact, that is, the entire bearing surface 241 on the pre-compression member 240 is in contact with the middle part 232.

[0099] Please combine Figure 11Optionally, the pre-compression member 240 has multiple abutment points, each abutment point being a protrusion 244. In other words, the pre-compression member 240 has multiple protrusions 244 spaced apart, and each of the multiple protrusions 244 abuts against the middle portion 232 of the elastic member 230. In this embodiment, the pre-compression member 240 has two protrusions 244 spaced apart, and each of the two protrusions 244 abuts against the middle portion 232 of the elastic member 230. The number of protrusions 244 can be one, two, three, four, or more, and is not specifically limited here. In this way, the middle portion 232 and the pre-compression member 240 achieve contact at multiple abutment points. Optionally, the multiple protrusions 244 are symmetrically distributed about the centerline 201.

[0100] It is understandable that the preload 240 may have one or more abutment positions. After the preload 240, elastic member 230, and wedge 200 are assembled, the wedge 200 will be subjected to a force along the centerline 201, allowing the wedge 200 to move more smoothly along the outer periphery of the neck ring 133. Since the middle part 232 is approximately located on the opposite side of the first leg 233 and the second leg 234, the direction of the prestress on the middle part 232 of the elastic member 230 is away from the direction of the first leg 233 and the second leg 234. This ensures that the wedge 200 moves more smoothly and reduces swaying.

[0101] Please combine Figure 12 , Figure 13 The preload component 240 is connected to the camshaft 140. The preload component 240 and the camshaft 140 can be integrally formed or separately connected. The preload component 240 protrudes from the camshaft 140. The preload component 240 has a groove 242, and the middle part 232 of the elastic component 230 is held in the groove 242. The groove 242 and the middle part 232 are interference-fitted, and the preload component 240 causes the middle part 232 of the elastic component 230 to deform and generate prestress. This prestress acts on the wedge block 200, making the wedge block 200 move more smoothly along the neck ring 133, thereby reducing vibration and abnormal noise during the adjustment process.

[0102] Please combine Figure 14 The preload component 240 is part of the angle adjuster body 110. Optionally, the side of the cam ring 150 away from the first support 233 and the second support 234 serves as the preload component 240. By shortening the length of the preload abutment section 231 of the elastic member 230, the contour of the preload abutment section 231 is changed, so that the middle part 232 abuts against the cam ring 150. Optionally, the cam ring 150 and the elastic member 230 are interference-fitted, which can both limit the elastic member 230 and generate prestress on the wedge block 200 after the elastic member 230 is assembled. Optionally, the cam ring 150 is provided with a groove 242, and the middle part 232 is held in the groove 242.

[0103] Please combine Figure 15 ,Figure 16 The preload component 240 and the angle adjuster body 110 are connected separately. Optionally, the preload component 240 and the cam ring 150 are connected separately. The preload component 240 is provided with a through hole 243, which is sleeved on the cam ring 150. The middle part 232 of the elastic element 230 abuts against the preload component 240, which can also achieve a similar technical effect.

[0104] Optional, please refer to Figure 17 , Figure 18 The preload component 240 is provided with a first insertion part, and the camshaft 140 is provided with a second insertion part. The first insertion part and the second insertion part are inserted into each other to realize the insertion connection between the preload component 240 and the angle adjuster body 110. Among the first insertion part and the second insertion part, one is a slot 245 and the other is a plug. The plug is inserted into the slot 245 to realize the fixed connection between the camshaft 140 and the preload component 240.

[0105] Please combine Figure 19 , Figure 20 If the first toothed plate 120 is an inner toothed plate and the second toothed plate 130 is an outer toothed plate, the toothed plate boss includes a first boss 246. The preload member 240 includes the first boss 246 disposed on the first toothed plate 120, and the elastic member 230 abuts against the first boss 246. Optionally, the first boss 246 can be integrally formed on the first toothed plate 120, and the bushing 123 is installed on the inner wall of the first boss 246, and the bushing 123 and the first boss 246 are interference-fitted. The middle portion 232 of the elastic member 230 abuts against the first boss 246. The first boss 246 causes the elastic member 230 to generate prestress. Of course, in some embodiments, the bushing 123 can also be thickened and heightened so that the middle portion 232 of the elastic member 230 abuts against the bushing 123, which is not specifically limited here.

[0106] Optionally, the first boss 246 is provided with a slot 242, in which the elastic member 230 is held. The first boss 246 adopts an annular boss design, and the slot 242 is opened along the circumference of the first boss 246 to form an annular groove. Since the elastic member 230 and the first boss 246 rotate relative to each other during adjustment, the annular groove can ensure that the middle part 232 can be well held in the slot 242 no matter what state it is adjusted to, thus achieving better limiting of the elastic member 230.

[0107] Optionally, lubricant can be stored in the slot 242. Since the elastic element 230 and the first boss 246 rotate relative to each other, the lubricant can lubricate the first boss 246 and the elastic element 230, thereby reducing frictional resistance, improving the smoothness of the wedge block 200 movement, reducing frictional loss, and extending the service life of the components.

[0108] Combination Figures 21 to 23The designs of the first toothed plate 120 and the second toothed plate 130 are interchangeable. If the first toothed plate 120 is an outer toothed plate, the second toothed plate 130 is an inner toothed plate. The toothed plate boss includes a second boss 247. The preload member 240 includes a second boss 247 disposed on the first toothed plate 120, and the elastic member 230 abuts against the second boss 247. A collar 133 is connected to or integrally formed on the second toothed plate 130. It has similar technical effects and will not be described further here.

[0109] It should be noted that the slot 242 on the preload component 240 can be additionally created, or it can be naturally formed after the components in the adjuster body 110 are installed, as long as it can limit the movement of the elastic component 230. In addition, if the elastic component 230 and the preload component 240 rotate relative to each other during adjustment, lubricant or the like can be applied to the preload component 240 or the elastic component 230 for lubrication.

[0110] It is worth noting that the components in the angle adjuster body 110 are not limited to those listed above. The pre-compression component 240 can be designed on any component of the angle adjuster body 110 according to the actual situation, as long as it can abut against the middle part 232 of the elastic component 230, so that the elastic component 230 generates a pre-stress acting on the wedge block 200, so that the wedge block 200 moves more smoothly along the outer periphery of the neck ring 133.

[0111] Alternatively, in some embodiments, the preload 240 may also be fixed on a carrier for mounting the angle adjuster body 110, which is not specifically limited here.

[0112] It is worth noting that the power for the drive wedge 200 to move along the outer circumference of the neck ring 133 comes from the force of the rotation of the camshaft 140. The camshaft 140 can be connected to a motor or similar device, which can provide driving force to the camshaft 140. The prestress generated by the elastic element 230 under the resistance of the preload element 240 reduces the swaying of the wedge 200 during movement, making the movement more stable.

[0113] Optionally, the angle adjuster body 110 also includes components such as a clamp 170 and a support ring 180. The clamp 170 is fixedly connected to the first toothed plate 120, providing axial support and limiting function. It should be understood that the clamp 170 does not impede the relative rotation of the first toothed plate 120 and the second toothed plate 130. The support ring 180 is connected to the camshaft 140, providing axial support and limiting function.

[0114] This utility model embodiment also provides a seat, including an adjuster 100 as described in any of the foregoing embodiments, a first toothed plate 120 and a second toothed plate 130 of the adjuster 100, one of which is connected to the backrest and the other to the seat. A wedge block 200 moves and presses against the neck ring 133 and the bushing 123, thereby causing the first toothed plate 120 and the second toothed plate 130 to rotate relative to each other, thus enabling the adjustment of the seat back angle. Because of the pre-pressing member 240 and the elastic member 230 providing support, the wedge block 200 can reduce wobbling during movement, improving the stability and smoothness of the wedge block 200's movement and preventing shaking and abnormal noise during adjustment.

[0115] In summary, the seat and angle adjuster 100 provided in this embodiment of the present invention have the following beneficial effects, including:

[0116] The angle adjuster 100 provided in this embodiment of the utility model is provided with a pre-compression member 240 and an elastic member 230 for support. The elastic member 230 is limited and subjected to the supporting force of the pre-compression member 240, so that the supporting force of the elastic member 230 acts on the wedge block 200, making the movement of the wedge block 200 along the neck ring 133 more stable. In this way, the shaking can be reduced during the movement of the wedge block 200, improving the stability of the movement of the wedge block 200, thereby ensuring that the angle adjuster 100 avoids structural collision and shaking during adjustment, and reduces vibration and abnormal noise. By providing a slot 242 on the pre-compression member 240, the elastic member 230 can be better limited, making the force of the elastic member 230 on the wedge block 200 more stable. In this embodiment, the design of the pre-compression member 240 is flexible and can be installed on any one or more of the multiple components of the angle adjuster body 110, with flexible layout space and strong adaptability.

[0117] The seat provided in this embodiment of the utility model includes the aforementioned angle adjuster 100, which can realize the smooth adjustment of the backrest angle and avoid structural collision. Especially in scenarios with large-angle adjustments such as rapid folding, it can still improve the stability of the movement of the wedge block 200, which is conducive to reducing vibration and abnormal noise.

[0118] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
