Detailed Implementation
[0034] To make the technical problem to be solved, the technical solution, and the beneficial effects of this utility model clearer and more understandable, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.
[0035] Please see Figures 1 to 5This embodiment provides a backrest folding structure, including two backrest rods 001 arranged side by side, and a backrest folding assembly 002 disposed on the two backrest rods 001 and used to move the two backrest rods 001 away from or towards each other; the backrest folding assembly 002 includes a first folding mechanism 021 located above and rotatably connected to the two backrest rods 001 at both ends, a second folding mechanism 022 located below and rotatably connected to the two backrest rods 001 at both ends, and a telescopic rod 023 disposed between the first folding mechanism 021 and the second folding mechanism 022 and used to move the middle of the first folding mechanism 021 and the middle of the second folding mechanism 022 towards or away from each other, and a limiting member 233 disposed on the telescopic rod 023 to prevent the telescopic rod 023 from extending or shortening. The middle part of the first folding mechanism 021 moves upward to fold the first folding mechanism 021, and the middle part of the second folding mechanism 022 moves downward to fold the second folding mechanism 022. When the first folding mechanism 021 and the second folding mechanism 022 are folded, the two back-to-back rods 001 move closer to each other, realizing the folding of the back-to-back folding structure. Conversely, the middle part of the first folding mechanism 021 moves downward to unfold the first folding mechanism 021, and the middle part of the second folding mechanism 022 moves upward to unfold the second folding mechanism 022. When the first folding mechanism 021 and the second folding mechanism 022 are unfolded, the two back-to-back rods 001 move further apart, realizing the opening of the back-to-back folding structure. After opening, the length of the telescopic rod 023 is limited by the limiting member 233, which can prevent the first folding mechanism 021 and the second folding mechanism 022 from folding on their own. When the first folding mechanism 021 or the second folding mechanism 022 is unfolded or folded, both ends rotate with the back-to-back rods 001.
[0036] The first folding mechanism 021 includes a first hinge seat 211 and two first rotating rods 212 disposed between the first hinge seat 211 and the backrest rod 001. One end of the first rotating rod 212 is rotatably connected to the first hinge seat 211, and the other end is rotatably connected to the backrest rod 001. When the first rotating rod 212 rotates upward relative to the backrest rod 001, the first hinge seat 211 moves upward relative to it, thereby folding the first folding mechanism 021. Conversely, when the first rotating rod 212 rotates downward relative to the backrest rod 001, the first hinge seat 211 moves downward relative to it, thereby opening the first folding mechanism 021.
[0037] The second folding mechanism 022 includes a second hinge seat 221 and two second rotating rods 222 disposed between the second hinge seat 221 and the backrest rod 001. One end of each rotating rod 222 is rotatably connected to the second hinge seat 221, and the other end is rotatably connected to the backrest rod 001. When the second rotating rod 222 rotates downward relative to the backrest rod 001, the first hinge seat 211 moves downward relative to it, thereby folding the second folding mechanism 022. Conversely, when the second rotating rod 222 rotates upward relative to the backrest rod 001, the second hinge seat 221 moves upward relative to it, thereby opening the second folding mechanism 022.
[0038] The telescopic rod 023 includes a first connecting rod 231 mounted on the first folding mechanism 021, and a second connecting rod 232 with one end located inside the first connecting rod 231 and the other end located on the second folding mechanism 022. The end of the second connecting rod 232 located inside the first connecting rod 231 is movably connected to the first connecting rod 231. One end of the first connecting rod 231 is sleeved on one end of the second connecting rod 232, and the two are movably connected to allow the telescopic rod 023 to extend or retract during folding or unfolding. The telescopic rod 023 also includes a limiting member 233 to prevent the second connecting rod 232 from moving within the first connecting rod 231; that is, the limiting member 233 is located within the second connecting rod 232. Specifically, when the backrest folding structure is unfolded, the telescopic rod 023 retracts, and the limiting member 233 prevents the telescopic rod 023 from further retracting or extending.
[0039] The limiting member 233 includes an elastic part 2331 located inside the second connecting rod 232 and having elasticity and being V-shaped, and a limiting part 2332 disposed on the elastic part 2331. The first connecting rod 231 is provided with a first through hole 2311 for the limiting part 2332 to pass through, and the second connecting rod 232 is provided with a second through hole 2321 for the limiting part 2332 to pass through. When the backrest folding structure is unfolded, the limiting part 2332 can pass through the first through hole 2311 and the second through hole 2321 to play a limiting role, preventing the second connecting rod 232 from moving inside the first connecting rod 231. Specifically, before the telescopic rod 023 is shortened, the limiting part 2332 is located inside the second through hole 2321 and abuts against the inner side wall of the first connecting rod 231. When the backrest folding structure is unfolded, the telescopic rod 023 is shortened, and the second connecting rod 232 moves inside the first connecting rod 231, driving the limiting part 233 to move. When it reaches the first through hole 2311, due to the elasticity of the elastic part 2331, that is, under the action of elastic potential energy, the limiting part 2332 is pressed into the first through hole 2311 to achieve the limiting.
[0040] The first folding mechanism 021 is also provided with a pressing part 2111 for pressing the limiting part 2332. Specifically, the pressing part 2111 is located on the first hinge seat 211. When the limiting part 2332 is located in the first through hole 2311, the pressing part 2111 presses down on the limiting part 2332, causing the elastic part 2331 to be compressed into the first through hole 2311. Since the end of the limiting part 2332 is an arc surface, only a small amount of external force is needed to extend the telescopic rod 023, thereby releasing the restriction of the limiting member 233 and allowing the backrest folding structure to be folded. The pressing part 2111 is directly integrally formed onto the first hinge seat 211, and both the first hinge seat 211 and the second hinge seat 221 can be made of plastic parts and can be integrally formed by injection molding. The inner side of the pressing part 2111 is designed to fit the outer shape of the telescopic rod 023 in an arc shape, and a step part 2112 is provided on the inner side of the arc shape corresponding to the limiting part 2332. The step part 2112 allows the limiting part 2332 to be pressed in better.
[0041] The first hinge seat 211 has first grooves on both sides for connecting the first rotating rod 212, and a second groove in the middle for the first connecting rod 231 to be inserted. The second hinge seat 221 has third grooves on both sides for connecting the second rotating rod 222, and a fourth groove in the middle for one end of the second connecting rod 232 to be inserted. Specifically, the first rotating rod 212 is inserted into the first groove or the second rotating rod 222 is inserted into the third groove, and then rotation is achieved by fixing with rivets or by locking with bolts and nuts. The connection between the other end of the first rotating rod 212, the other end of the second rotating rod 222 and the backrest rod 001 can also be fixed with rivets or locked with bolts and nuts. The fixing method of the first connecting rod 231 being inserted into the second groove and the fixing method of the second connecting rod 232 being inserted into the fourth groove can be referred to the above.
[0042] Please see Figures 1 to 11 This utility model also provides a folding recliner with a backrest folding structure. The folding recliner also includes two sets of supporting folding components, a third folding mechanism 006 for connecting the two supporting folding components and being foldable, and a support mechanism 007 for connecting the backrest rod 001 below to the supporting folding components. The supporting folding components are set corresponding to the backrest rod 001. The third folding mechanism 006 includes two limiting pieces 071 located on both sides of the supporting folding components and rotatably connected to the supporting folding components at one end, a limiting seat 072 set at the other end of the two limiting pieces 071, and a limiting sleeve 723 set between the limiting seat 072 and the backrest rod 001. The limiting seat 072 is provided with a limiting groove 721 that can abut against the supporting folding components. When the recliner is folded, the two limiting pieces 071 drive the limiting seat 072 to first move away from the rear support leg 032 of the supporting folding components, and then rotate downwards.
[0043] The supporting folding assembly includes a front support leg 031 and a rear support leg 032 connected at the top by a rotating shaft, a seat support rod 004 with one end rotatably connected to the backrest rod 001 and the middle or near the middle position rotatably connected to the front support leg 031, and an armrest 005 with one end rotatably connected to the backrest rod 001. An adjustment seat 051 is provided below the armrest 005 between the front support leg 031 and the rear support leg 032. The adjustment seat 051 is provided with an adjustment channel 511 for the rotating shaft to pass through and several stop slots 512 for locking the rotating shaft. Several stop slots 512 are located above the adjustment channel 511 and communicate with the adjustment channel 511. Different stop slots 512 correspond to different angles of the backrest folding structure, so as to realize the adjustment of the backrest folding structure. The front support leg 031 and the rear support leg 032 can rotate above the pivot shaft to achieve folding or unfolding. The third folding mechanism 006 includes two first folding rods 061 that are hinged together in the middle. The upper part of the first folding rod 061 is rotatably connected to the seat support rod 004, and the lower part is rotatably connected to the front support leg 031. The rotation connection of this utility model can be achieved by directly riveting with rivets, or by connecting the rotatable connection with a nut after passing through a bolt, or by using one or two U-shaped seats to achieve the rotational connection. The specific fixing and installation methods all adopt existing technologies. For example, a U-shaped seat is welded to the end of the backrest rod 001, and one end of the seat support rod 004 is embedded in the groove of the U-shaped seat. Then, rivets or bolts are used with nuts to achieve the rotational connection between the seat support rod 004 and the backrest rod 001, thereby satisfying the folding or unfolding function.
[0044] In summary, the backrest folding structure of this utility model, by setting a first folding mechanism, a second folding mechanism, and a telescopic rod, forms an "I"-shaped structure when the folding chair is unfolded, which can support flexible fabrics such as Oxford cloth and prevent collapse.
