Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lumbar support technology, specifically an adjustable lumbar support chair. Background Technology

[0002] Lumbar traction is an effective method for relieving and treating common lumbar spine diseases. The principle of this treatment is to use external force to widen the intervertebral space of the lumbar spine, causing the herniated nucleus pulposus to reposition to a certain extent, thereby reducing or eliminating the compression of the nerve root by the nucleus pulposus, and rapidly reducing or eliminating the user's lower back and leg pain.

[0003] Existing lumbar support traction methods mainly utilize supine traction beds or support frames, lumbar-abdominal traction supports, and upper arm suspension traction devices. The supine traction method places the lower force point on the upper hip bone, applying downward tension through a connected traction strap. The other end uses a chest strap tightly bound to the chest, applying upward tension through a connected traction strap. To prevent slippage of the chest strap, the binding force must be significant, causing considerable pressure on the chest and rib area. Discomfort during binding and traction primarily manifests as compression pain and difficulty breathing; female users find the pressure on the chest even more unbearable. Another abdominal support traction method uses a lumbar strap tightly bound to the upper hip bone at the lower end, and an abdominal strap tightly bound to the lower ribs at the upper end. A retractable support device is installed on each side of the body using both straps, with the support force adjusted using a double-ended screw nut. Adjusting the length of the support device generates traction force on the lumbar spine; applying greater support force can cause severe discomfort. There are also similar devices that use armpit supports, but the support force is applied in a rigid manner, which makes the support force value uncontrollable and therefore poses certain safety hazards.

[0004] Patent number CN219963204U, entitled "A Lumbar Traction Chair," discloses a lumbar traction chair, including a seat body. A lifting frame is provided on the rear side of the seat body. Two symmetrically arranged underarm fixing straps are fixedly installed on both sides of the lifting frame. Underarm support devices are symmetrically arranged at the top of both sides of the lifting frame and are threadedly rotatably connected to them. Two symmetrically arranged lower fixing straps are fixedly installed on both sides of the seat body. This invention uses the underarm fixing straps to fix the chest of the human body; the underarm support devices to limit the shoulders of the human body; and the lower fixing straps to fix the buttocks of the human body, thus placing the human body in a traction and stretching state. The same rigid mechanical support method also poses the risk of uncontrollable support force. If the upward lifting stroke is not properly controlled, the support force on the lumbar spine will increase dramatically, which increases the risk of lumbar spine injury from violent strain. Public literature records that the appropriate lumbar support traction force is 20-50 kg, and different support forces should be set according to the individual user's situation. There are also some publicly available multi-functional support and traction chair technology solutions, including rehabilitation and health care support or multi-purpose chair technology solutions for office and home use, which claim to be usable as a chair and lumbar support chair, but the armrest spacing is not adjustable. Therefore, it is impossible to switch between uses and meet the needs of people with different chest widths. Utility Model Content

[0033] An adjustable lumbar support chair includes a seat frame 1, a backrest 2 mounted on the seat frame 1, and a lifting plate 3 slidably connected within the backrest 2.

[0041] An adjustable lumbar support chair includes a seat frame 1, a backrest 2 mounted on the seat frame 1, and a lifting plate 3 slidably connected within the backrest 2. Vertical shafts 5 are rotatably connected to both ends of the lifting plate 3, and lumbar support mechanisms are mounted on each vertical shaft 5. Each lumbar support mechanism includes a support frame 6 fixed to the vertical shaft 5, a movable telescopic rod 12 slidably connected to the support frame 6, a movable sleeve 11 fixed above the movable telescopic rod 12, and a gas spring cylinder 8 rotatably connected to the movable sleeve 11. A fixed limiting crank arm 10 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the gas spring cylinder body 8 and slidably connected to it; a locking knob 9 that cooperates with the fixed limiting crank arm 10 is connected to the upper part of the gas spring cylinder body 8; a gas spring piston rod 7 is slidably connected to the other end of the gas spring cylinder body 8; the other end of the gas spring piston rod 7 is slidably connected to the support frame 6; a movable adjusting rod 13 is slidably connected inside the movable sleeve 11; an armpit support 15 is rotatably connected to the movable adjusting rod 13; an armpit support positioning mechanism that cooperates with the movable adjusting rod 13 is provided inside the armpit support 15.

[0042] The armpit support positioning mechanism includes a positioning gear 16 coaxially fixed to the movable adjustment rod 13, and a gear limiting block 17 that slidably connects to the armpit support 15 and cooperates with the positioning gear 16; a fixed sliding sleeve 20 is fixedly connected to the armpit support 15, and a positioning fixing post 19 is fixedly connected to the fixed sliding sleeve 20; the gear limiting block 17 is provided with a through hole that cooperates with the positioning fixing post 19; a return spring 18 is sleeved on the positioning fixing post 19, one end of the return spring 18 is fixedly connected to the fixed sliding sleeve 20, and the other end of the return spring 18 is fixedly connected to the gear limiting block 17; a positioning slider handle 14 is slidably connected below the armpit support 15, and the positioning slider handle 14 is fixedly connected to the gear limiting block 17.

[0043] The fixed limiting crank arm 10 is provided with a first sliding groove 101 that cooperates with the gas spring cylinder 8; the support frame 6 is provided with a second sliding groove 61 that cooperates with the gas spring piston rod 7.

[0044] Both the first slide rail 101 and the second slide rail 61 are arc-shaped slide rails, and the centers of the first slide rail 101 and the second slide rail 61 are located at the rotational connection point between the gas spring cylinder 8 and the movable sleeve 11.

[0045] The angle between the gas spring cylinder and the movable sleeve can be locked by a locking knob that cooperates with the fixed limit crank arm.

[0046] The back plate 2 is rotatably connected to a lifting stud 4 that is screwed to the lifting plate 3.

[0047] The upper surface of the armpit support 15 is concave arc-shaped.

[0048] The fixed limit arm 10 is equipped with a scale.

[0049] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3, 4, and 5: Based on Embodiment 1, when the user needs support, the height of the lifting plate 3 can be adjusted by manually or by rotating the lifting stud 4 with a motor, thereby adjusting the overall height of the lumbar support mechanism. Then, the armpit support can be adjusted to a suitable height with the adjustment lever 13. Then, the locking knob 9 is loosened to release the limit between the gas spring cylinder 8 and the fixed limit arm 10. The angle between the gas spring cylinder 8 and the movable sleeve 11 can be adjusted as needed. When the gas spring cylinder 8 is rotated to a suitable position on the fixed limit arm 10, the support force is set and the locking knob 9 is tightened. At this time, the corresponding position of the gas spring piston rod 7 is also linked synchronously.

[0050] The magnitude of the supporting force can be determined by the angle between the gas spring cylinder 8 and the movable sleeve 11. If the design supporting force of the gas spring is F, the supporting force obtained by the armpit support 15 is N, and the angle between the gas spring cylinder 8 and the movable sleeve 11 is α, the supporting force N of the armpit support 15 can be obtained according to the formula N=F×cosα. Then cosα=N / F. The value of the angle α can be obtained by using the formula α=arccos(cosα)=arccosN / F.

[0051] Taking a gas spring with a supporting force of 260N installed on the outrigger as an example, the following table shows the correspondence between the four typical included angles α between the gas spring cylinder 8 and the movable sleeve 11 and the supporting force N, obtained using the formula α=arccosN / F:

[0052] serial number Support force N (approximate value) Angle α 1 260 0° 2 225 30° 3 184 45° 4 130 60°

[0053] When the user sets the support force, adjust the angle between the gas spring cylinder 8 and the movable sleeve 11 to the preset value, and tighten the locking knob 9 to lock it; for ease of use, convert and mark the scale inside the limiting crank arm 10 with the support force value corresponding to the angle (e.g., Figure 8 As shown, the user can select a suitable range according to their own weight; when the user applies a certain pressure to the armpit support 15, the gas spring piston rod 7 slides relative to the gas spring cylinder 8, and at the same time the movable sleeve 11 slides relative to the movable telescopic rod 12; simultaneously, the gas spring piston rod 7 slides in the second slide groove 61, forming a dynamic triangular structure with variable side length and constant angle, which not only ensures the smooth and stable operation of the mechanism, but also ensures that the armpit support 15 always receives constant support force, effectively solving the safety hazards caused by the inability to set the support force value and the lack of a buffer zone, and ensuring the user's comfort, safety and stable exercise and treatment effect during the support traction process.
