[0002] In the existing slide rail screw rod transmission structure, the locking mechanism mostly adopts pure metal nut structure and engages with the screw rod, this kind of engagement mode is high although, but first track 5, metal screw rod 2, metal locking mechanism 4 and second track 1 all are connected transmission through pure metal parts, and this kind of connection relation is easy to produce transmission feeling and scraping sound influence the riding experience in the transmission process.

[0003] Therefore, one of the solutions is that the nut in the locking mechanism 4 is suspended by a buffer member, so that it does not directly contact the locking mechanism support, and the vibration is blocked by the buffer member from the first track 5 to the second track 1 along the screw rod 2 and the locking mechanism 4. However, the nut member of the suspension structure is easily squeezed by the rubber member during the working process under the action of the screw rod 2. Long-term use will cause the gap between the internal parts to become larger, and there will be a very obvious jumping and shaking feeling on the actual new energy vehicle. SUMMARY

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a front electric slide rail and seat to improve the large gap between the screw rod and the locking mechanism under the condition of endurance working.

[0009] Further, the bushing has at least one wing extending transversely, and the wing wraps the elastic member from the outside to avoid the elastic member from being squeezed and worn out.

[0010] Further, the bushings are arranged in pairs at both ends of the nut.

[0011] Further, the driving mechanism and the lead screw are driven through a first gear and a second gear, the first gear is made of metal, and the second gear is made of plastic or a plastic-metal mixed material.

[0012] Further, the second gear is fixed to the end of the lead screw through a metal base shaft, the second gear external teeth are arranged on the outer periphery of the metal base shaft and form an integral structure, and the second gear external teeth are made of plastic.

[0013] Further, a base shaft gear ring is arranged on the outer surface of the metal base shaft, and the second gear external teeth are arranged on the base shaft gear ring.

[0014] Further, the second gear is arranged on the end of the lead screw and forms an integral structure.

[0024] In the description of the utility model, it is necessary to explain that the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "inner", "outer" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and the above description is simplified for the convenience of describing the utility model, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element indicated must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the utility model.

[0025] The singular forms "a", "said", and "the" used in the description are intended to encompass plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. The terms "comprise", "include" and "contain" used in the description indicate the presence of the stated feature, but do not exclude the presence of one or more other features.

[0026] In the description, when one element is said to be "on", "fixed to", "connected to", "joined to" or the like another element, the element can be directly on, fixed to, connected to, joined to or in contact with the other element, or there can be an intermediate element.

[0027] It can be understood that although the terms "first", "second" and the like can be used herein to describe different elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another. Therefore, the first element can be called the second element without departing from the teachings of the present application.

[0028] The exemplary embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood, however, that the present application can be presented in various ways and is not limited to the embodiments described below. It should also be understood that the embodiments disclosed herein can be combined in various ways to provide additional embodiments. In all the drawings, the same reference numerals represent the same or functionally similar elements.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 The main structure of the front electric sliding rail assembly is shown. The assembly drives the first rail 5 and the second rail 1 to axially slide relative to each other through a set of driving devices, which are screw driving structures that realize displacement through a screw rod 2 and a locking mechanism 4 screwed onto the screw rod 2. The driving mechanism 31 that drives the screw rod 2 to rotate and work, and the gear box 3 with a one-stage transmission structure composed of a first gear 32 and a second gear 33 arranged between the screw rod 2 and the driving mechanism 31.

[0030] Figure 2 And Figure 3The locking mechanism 4 in the front electric sliding rail assembly is shown, which includes a first locking mechanism support 41 fixed as a whole on the second rail 1, a first nut 42 clamped in the first locking mechanism support 41 through an elastic member 45, and the lead screw 2 penetrating into the first nut 42 from one side of the first locking mechanism support 41 and then out from the other end. This flexible connection mode can effectively buffer the vibration transmitted from the lead screw 2. A bushing 44 is arranged between the elastic member 45 and the first nut 42 to reduce friction and improve lubrication between the two parts. Since the first nut 42 will relatively float and deflect during the rotation of the lead screw 2, the bushing 44 reduces the friction between the two parts to prevent the elastic member 45 from being extruded and damaged by the first nut 42. Specifically, the bushing 44 isolates the contact end surface of the elastic member 45 and the first nut 42, thereby reducing the damage that the elastic member 45 may suffer. Further, the bushing 44 has a wing edge 44a extending forward and backward from the side and lapping on the side wall of the first locking mechanism support 41 to limit the outward overflow of the elastic member 45 from the outside. In a preferred embodiment, the bushing 44 is arranged at both ends of the first nut 42 in the axial direction.

[0031] Figure 4 and Figure 5 The gear box structure in the front electric sliding rail assembly is shown, which includes a first gear 32 and a second gear 33 engaged with the first gear 32 for transmission. Since the rotation speed of the first gear 32 is greater than that of the second gear 33, the first gear 32 is made of metal to improve the dimensional accuracy and ensure stable transmission. The second gear 33 is made of plastic to ensure low noise of the gear box 3 during operation. Since the materials of the second gear 33 and the lead screw 2 are different, they cannot be connected together by simple assembly process.

[0032] Figure 4 A first preferred embodiment is specifically shown, in which the second gear 33 is integrally plasticized at the end of the lead screw 2. This connection mode effectively avoids the problem of large size deviation of the parts caused by material deformation in the original metal riveting structure.

[0033] Figure 5 A second preferred embodiment is specifically shown, in which a base shaft gear ring 34a is arranged on the outer periphery of a metal base shaft 34, and the second gear outer teeth 33a are directly formed on the base shaft 34 by injection molding process to form an integral structure. The tooth structure of the base shaft gear ring 34a can increase the connection area of the second gear outer teeth 33a and the base shaft 34 to improve the strength, and finally the base shaft 34 is press-fitted at the end of the lead screw 2.
