Further, the air bag body 101 comprises at least two air bag bodies 103 connected in a straight line. The interiors of the air bag bodies 103 are communicated with each other, so that the same air pipe can be used for inflation and deflation. Moreover, the upper part and the lower part of the air bag body 101 can be in a wave-shaped structure through the above structure, which is beneficial to the horizontal placement of the air bag body 101.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment, the cushion softness adjusting device comprises a cushion frame 200 and an elastic support structure arranged above the seat bag air bag 100, the elastic support structure is composed of a plurality of elastic support members 300, the elastic support member 300 is a serpentine spring or an elastic rubber band, the inside of the cushion frame 200 is a containing space, the elastic support member 300 is arranged at the top opening position of the cushion frame 200, and the two ends of the elastic support member 300 are connected with the cushion frame 200 respectively to realize the installation of the elastic support member 300; the seat bag air bag 100 is installed in the containing space and is arranged corresponding to the elastic support structure, so that the expansion height of the seat bag air bag 100 can be controlled to limit the stretching range of the elastic support member 300 downwards, thereby realizing the softness adjustment of the sofa cushion.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment, the control module 2 is integrated with an air pressure sensor 21 for monitoring the gas pressure delivered by the electric air pump 1, so that the control module 2 knows whether the electric air pump 1 is working normally.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment, the electric control type air supply pipeline comprises a first electric valve 5, a second electric valve 6, a third electric valve 7, a fourth electric valve 8, a first-stage air inlet pipe 9, a monitoring air supply pipe 10, a second-stage air inlet pipe 11, a lower air supply pipe 12 and an upper air supply pipe 13, the first electric valve 5, the second electric valve 6, the third electric valve 7 and the fourth electric valve 8 are all electromagnetic valves connected and controlled by the control module 2.

[0035] Further, the air inlet end of the first electric valve 5 is connected with the air outlet end of the electric air pump 1 through the first-stage air inlet pipe 9, the first air outlet end of the first electric valve 5 is connected with the air pressure sensor 21 through the monitoring air supply pipe 10, so that the air pressure sensor 21 can detect the pressure of the gas delivered by the electric air pump 1; the second air outlet end of the first electric valve 5 is connected with the air inlet end of the second electric valve 6 through the second-stage air inlet pipe 11; the upper air pipe 31 and the lower air pipe 41 are connected with the two air outlet ends of the second electric valve 6 respectively, so that the gas passing through the second electric valve 6 can enter the upper air bag 3 and the lower air bag 4 through the upper air pipe 31 and the lower air pipe 41 respectively;

[0036] Further, one end of the lower air supply pipe 12 is connected with the lower air pipe 41, and the other end is connected with the air inlet end of the third electric valve 7, when the lower air bag 4 is inflated, the third electric valve 7 blocks the lower air supply pipe 12, so that the gas input into the lower air pipe 41 through the second electric valve 6 can enter the lower air bag 4, thereby realizing the inflation of the lower air bag 4; when the lower air bag 4 is deflated, the second electric valve 6 is closed and the third electric valve 7 is opened to deflate, so that the gas in the lower air bag 4 flows to the lower air supply pipe 12 through the lower air pipe 41, and then is discharged after passing through the third electric valve 7.

[0037] Further, one end of the upper air pipe 13 is connected with the upper layer air pipe 31, and the other end is connected with the air inlet of the fourth electric valve 8. When the upper layer air bag 3 is inflated, the fourth electric valve 8 blocks the upper air pipe 13, so that the gas input by the second electric valve 6 into the upper layer air pipe 31 can enter the upper layer air bag 3, thereby realizing the inflation of the upper layer air bag 3.

In addition, the air inlet of the electric air pump 1 can be provided with an air pump air inlet pipe 17 connected with the pipeline air port 16, so as to also reduce the probability of the air inlet of the electric air pump 1 being blocked by sundries.

[0039] Through the above structure, four-gear control of the seat bag air bag 100 can be realized. The higher the gear, the higher the force of the seat bag air bag 100 supporting the sofa cushion, the lower the deformation amplitude of the sofa cushion, and the higher the hardness of the sofa cushion perceived by the user, thereby realizing the purpose of adjusting the hardness of the sofa cushion. For example, the first gear can be set to make the upper layer air bag 3 not inflated, so that the upper layer air bag 3 is in a flat state, and then the lower layer air bag 4 is inflated to two-thirds of the maximum capacity. The second gear can be set to make the upper layer air bag 3 remain in a flat state, and then the lower layer air bag 4 is inflated to the maximum capacity. The third gear can be set to make the lower layer air bag 4 be inflated to the maximum capacity, and the upper layer air bag 3 be inflated to three-fourths of the maximum capacity. The fourth gear can be set to make the upper layer air bag 3 and the lower layer air bag 4 be inflated to the maximum capacity, so that the seat bag air bag 100 supports the elastic support structure, and the hardness of the sofa cushion is the highest.

[0040] As a preferred embodiment, the seat bag air bag 100 is externally sleeved with a protective cloth sleeve 400, which is used to wrap and protect the seat bag air bag 100, thereby reducing the probability of the seat bag air bag 100 being damaged.

[0041] As a preferred implementation, the control module 2 is installed in a control box 500, which can be installed in a containing space, and the control module 2 is protected by the control box 500, reducing the risk of damage to the control module 2 by external force impact; further, the electric air pump 1, the first electric valve 5, the second electric valve 6, the third electric valve 7 and the fourth electric valve 8 can all be arranged in the control box 500, so that the control box 500 can also protect them, reducing the probability of damage by impact. In addition, the control module 2 can be externally connected to a control panel, allowing the user to use the keys of the control panel to issue corresponding control instructions to the control module 2, so that the control module 2 controls the seat air bag 100 to expand to a corresponding amplitude according to the corresponding control instructions, meeting the user's requirements for the softness of the sofa cushion.

[0042] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and any technical solutions that achieve the same purpose by substantially the same means are within the scope of protection of the present application.
