[0040] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. This utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments are only for illustrating this utility model and not for limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0041] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings only show the components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.

[0042] With advancements in vehicle technology, the functionality of vehicle seats has been continuously enhanced. For example, in addition to electric adjustments such as fore-and-aft movement and seat tilt, features like heating, ventilation, and massage have been added. Furthermore, recent years have seen the development of zero-gravity seats that simulate a weightless environment, reducing pressure on various parts of the body, allowing the seat to release pressure and evenly distribute body weight, maximizing user comfort when combined with a variety of functions.

[0043] However, in the event of a collision or emergency braking, the seat continues to move forward due to inertia, generating a large inertial force that causes the seat back to tilt forward, causing the occupants to fall forward and increasing the risk of collision between the occupants and objects inside the vehicle.

[0044] Based on the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model is proposed. An embodiment of this utility model discloses a seat locking device, which may include a retractor 1, a locking webbing 2, and a locking anchor point 3. The retractor 1 is located at the rear of the seat assembly. One end of the locking webbing 2 is connected to the retractor 1. The locking anchor point 3 is fixedly connected to the locking webbing 2 and is fixed to the vehicle's body system. In the event of a vehicle collision, the retractor 1 winds up the locking webbing 2 to restrict the seat assembly from rolling forward. In the event of a vehicle collision or emergency braking, the retractor 1 can wind up the locking webbing 2, thereby applying a downward and rearward preload force to the seat frame 7. This locks the seat assembly in place, preventing it from rolling forward. This prevents injury to occupants from the seat rolling forward and improves the safety factor of the seat assembly.

[0045] Reference Figures 1-3This utility model provides a seat locking device, which may include a retractor 1, a locking webbing 2, and a locking anchor point 3. The device includes a retractor 1, a locking webbing 2, and a locking anchor point 3. The retractor 1 is located at the rear of the seat assembly. One end of the locking webbing 2 is connected to the retractor 1. The locking anchor point 3 is fixedly connected to the locking webbing 2 and is fixed to the vehicle's body system so that, in the event of a collision, the retractor 1 can wind up the locking webbing 2 to prevent the seat assembly from rolling forward.

[0046] In this embodiment of the invention, the vehicle body system can be understood as including the vehicle body and various components and equipment installed on the vehicle body. The seat assembly, together with the vehicle body, constitutes the interior space and load-bearing structure of the vehicle. The seat assembly can be understood as a complete combination of all components that make up a fully functional and comfortable seat, including at least a seat frame 7, a seat cushion and backrest, a seat adjustment mechanism, and a headrest. For example, the seat frame 7 of the seat assembly is typically made of metal and provides structural support for other components of the seat assembly. Furthermore, the seat frame 7 can withstand the weight of the occupants (the collective term for driver and passengers) and various forces exerted during vehicle operation. The seat cushion and backrest are installed on the seat frame 7 and are the parts that the occupants directly contact, providing a comfortable seating experience. The seat adjustment mechanism is typically located at the bottom of the seat frame 7 and is used to adjust the position and angle of the seat assembly. The headrest is typically installed at the top of the seat backrest to support the head of the occupants. The rear of the seat assembly is located near the rear of the vehicle, and the front of the seat assembly is located near the front of the vehicle. The retractor 1 is located at the rear of the seat assembly to provide a tension force at the rear of the seat assembly.

[0047] One end of the locking webbing 2 is fixed to the retractor 1. The retractor 1 can be a pre-tensioned seat belt retractor. Therefore, the retractor 1 allows the locking webbing 2 to extend and retract freely under normal circumstances to meet the comfort needs of passengers. For example, when adjusting the backrest angle of the seat assembly, the user can adjust the length of the locking webbing 2 according to their needs. In the event of a collision or emergency braking, the retractor 1 is activated, enabling the locking webbing 2 to be quickly rolled up.

[0048] The locking webbing 2 refers to the strip of fabric that restrains the position of the seat assembly. For example, the locking webbing 2 can be made of materials such as polyester fiber or nylon. The locking webbing 2 can have a flat strip structure. The locking anchor point 3 refers to the fixing point of the locking webbing 2 on the vehicle body system. It provides a strong fixing point for the locking webbing 2, so that the force on the locking webbing 2 can be transmitted to the body system through the locking anchor point 3. The locking anchor point 3 can be made of metal. It can be fixed to the body system by welding or bolting. For example, the locking anchor point 3 can be fixedly connected to the body of the body system or fixedly connected to the seat assembly of the body system.

[0049] During normal vehicle operation, the retractor 1 is in a free state, allowing the unwinding length of the locking webbing 2 to be freely adjusted simultaneously when the occupants adjust the angle of the seat frame 7. In the event of a collision or emergency braking, the retractor 1 can wind up the locking webbing 2, applying a downward and rearward preload to the seat frame 7. This locks the seat assembly in place, preventing it from flipping forward. This prevents injury to occupants from the seat flipping forward and improves the overall safety of the seat assembly. Furthermore, this invention has a simple structure and reduces production costs while effectively improving the safety of the seat assembly.

[0050] In one optional embodiment of the utility model, the retractor 1 is fixed to the seat frame 7 of the seat assembly, and the locking anchor point 3 is fixed to the sill beam 9 of the vehicle body. Alternatively, the retractor 1 is fixed to the vehicle body of the body system, and the locking anchor point 3 is fixed to the seat frame 7 of the seat assembly.

[0051] In this embodiment of the invention, the positions of the retractor 1 and the locking anchor point 3 can be arranged according to the available space in the vehicle body system, improving the product applicability of the seat locking device. In some embodiments, the retractor 1 can be installed on the seat frame 7 of the seat assembly, and the locking anchor point 3 can be fixed to the sill beam 9. The sill beam 9 is located at the junction of the vehicle chassis and the side of the vehicle body. For example, the sill beam 9 can be a hollow beam structure made of steel. In other embodiments, the locking anchor point 3 can also be fixedly connected to the seat frame 7, and the retractor 1 can be fixed to the vehicle body of the vehicle body system. For example, the retractor can be fixed to the sill beam 9, the inner side panel, the floor, etc.

[0052] In one optional embodiment of the utility model, the retractor 1 is detachably connected to the seat frame 7. Alternatively, the retractor 1 is detachably connected to the vehicle body.

[0053] In this embodiment of the invention, the detachable connection between the retractor 1 and the seat frame 7, or the detachable connection between the retractor 1 and the vehicle body, facilitates the assembly, disassembly, maintenance, or replacement of the retractor 1. The detachable connection can be secured using methods such as snap-fit ​​or bolt connection.

[0054] An optional utility model embodiment, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, when the retractor 1 is located on the seat frame 7, the seat locking device further includes a retractor bracket 4, which is welded and fixed to the seat frame 7, and the retractor 1 is fixed to the retractor bracket 4 by bolts.

[0055] In this embodiment of the invention, the winding bracket 4 can be a plate-like structure. For example, the winding bracket 4 can be welded and fixed to the seat frame 7 in a horizontal direction. This provides an assembly plane for mounting the retractor 1. Furthermore, considering that the surface of the seat frame 7 is typically curved or has a small planar area, direct mounting of the retractor 1 is not advantageous. In some embodiments, the contact surface of the winding bracket 4 that contacts the seat frame 7 is adapted to the surface shape of the seat frame 7 to improve the contact area and weld strength between the winding bracket 4 and the seat frame 7.

[0056] The winding bracket 4 is bolted to the winding device 1. On the one hand, the winding bracket 4 increases the contact area with the winding device 1, which facilitates the fixed connection of the winding device 1. On the other hand, the bolted connection between the winding device 1 and the winding bracket 4 greatly improves the ease of disassembly and assembly of the winding device 1 when it malfunctions and needs to be repaired or replaced.

[0057] In other embodiments, when the locking anchor point is fixed to the seat frame 7, the seat locking device may further include a plate-shaped anchor point bracket, which may be welded to the seat frame 7, and the locking anchor point 3 may be fixed to the anchor point bracket by bolts.

[0058] An optional utility model embodiment, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3As shown, the seat locking device further includes a webbing guide ring 5, through which the locking webbing 2 passes to guide the locking webbing 2. The webbing guide ring 5 is detachably connected to the seat frame 7.

[0059] In this embodiment of the invention, the webbing guide ring 5 is used to orient and guide the locking webbing 2, thereby ensuring that the locking webbing 2 can move along a preset path. For example, the locking webbing 2 is inserted into the webbing guide ring 5 to prevent the locking webbing 2 from twisting, tangling, or deviating from the preset path during use. Therefore, in the event of a vehicle collision or emergency braking, the locking webbing 2 can provide a rearward preload force to the seat assembly. Furthermore, the webbing guide ring 5 is detachably connected to the seat frame 7, facilitating the assembly, disassembly, maintenance, or replacement of the webbing guide ring 5.

[0060] An optional utility model embodiment, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the seat locking device also includes a guide bracket 6, which is welded and fixed to the seat frame 7, and the webbing guide ring 5 is fixed to the guide bracket 6 by bolts.

[0061] In this embodiment of the invention, the guide bracket 6 can be a plate-like structure. For example, the guide bracket 6 can be welded and fixed to the seat frame 7 in a horizontal direction. This provides an assembly plane for mounting the webbing guide ring 5. Furthermore, considering that the surface of the seat frame 7 is typically curved or has a small planar area, direct mounting of the webbing guide ring 5 is not advantageous. In some embodiments, the contact surface of the guide bracket 6 that contacts the seat frame 7 is adapted to the surface shape of the seat frame 7 to improve the contact area and weld strength between the guide bracket 6 and the seat frame 7.

[0062] The webbing guide ring 5 and the guide bracket 6 are connected by bolts. On one hand, the guide bracket 6 increases the contact area with the webbing guide ring 5, facilitating its secure connection. On the other hand, the bolted connection between the webbing guide ring 5 and the guide bracket 6 facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the webbing guide ring 5. This significantly improves the ease of assembly and disassembly when the webbing guide ring 5 malfunctions and requires repair or replacement.

[0063] In some embodiments, both the guide bracket 6 and the retractor bracket 4 can be made of steel, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the seat locking device.

[0064] In one optional embodiment of the utility model, the webbing guide ring 5 is located above the take-up device 1.

[0065] In this embodiment of the invention, the webbing guide ring 5 is located above the retractor 1. For example, the retractor 1 can be fixed to the side of the seat frame 7 near the vehicle door, and the webbing guide ring 5 can be located on the same side of the seat frame 7 where the retractor 1 is installed, and above the retractor 1. This ensures that the locking webbing 2 can be close to the top of the seat frame 7. When the locking webbing 2 is rolled up under the action of the retractor 1, the locking webbing 2 can apply a downward and backward pretension force to the seat frame 7, thereby improving the pretensioning effect of the locking webbing 2 in pulling the seat frame 7 backward.

[0066] This utility model embodiment also provides a seat assembly, which includes a seat locking device as described in any of the above utility model embodiments.

[0067] In this embodiment of the invention, in the event of a vehicle collision or emergency braking, the retractor 1 can roll up the locking webbing 2, thereby applying a downward and rearward preload force to the seat frame 7. This locks the seat assembly in place, preventing it from flipping forward. This prevents injury to occupants from the seat flipping forward and improves the overall safety of the seat assembly.

[0068] In some embodiments, the seat assembly may be the seat assembly corresponding to the driver's seat of the vehicle, the seat assembly corresponding to the front passenger seat of the vehicle, or the seat assembly corresponding to the rear seats of the vehicle, without further limitation.

[0069] An optional utility model embodiment, referring to Figure 4 As shown, the seat assembly also includes an angle sensor 8, which is mounted on the seat assembly and electrically connected to the vehicle controller 10 to detect the backrest tilt angle of the seat assembly.

[0070] In this embodiment of the invention, the angle sensor 8 is used to detect the backrest tilt angle of the seat assembly, thereby determining whether the seat assembly has flipped forward, and thus whether the seat assembly needs to be locked in place. For example, the angle sensor 8 can be installed on the seat frame 7 of the seat assembly, or on the seat back of the seat assembly.

[0071] The angle sensor 8 can be electrically connected to the vehicle controller 10, and transmit the angle sensing signal detected by the angle sensor 8 to the controller 10. In the event of a vehicle collision or emergency braking, if the backrest tilt angle (e.g., the rotation angle) of the seat assembly is greater than a preset threshold, it indicates that the backrest tilt angle of the seat assembly is abnormal. In this case, the retractor 1 needs to be activated to wind up the locking webbing 2 to prevent the seat assembly from flipping forward and increasing the safety risk of the occupants colliding with objects in front.

[0072] This utility model embodiment also provides a vehicle, the vehicle including a seat assembly as described in any of the above utility model embodiments.

[0073] In this embodiment of the invention, in the event of a vehicle collision or emergency braking, the retractor 1 can roll up the locking webbing 2, thereby applying a downward and rearward preload force to the seat frame 7. This locks the seat assembly in place, preventing it from flipping forward. This prevents injury to occupants from the seat flipping forward and improves vehicle safety.

[0074] An optional utility model embodiment, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the vehicle also includes a controller 10, which is electrically connected to the retractor 1 to control the operation of the retractor 1.

[0075] In this embodiment of the invention, the vehicle may include, but is not limited to, the following types: gasoline vehicles, diesel vehicles, pure electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles. The controller 10 may be the vehicle's ECU (Electronic Control Unit) controller 10. The controller 10 is electrically connected to the retractor 1, and the retractor 1 can be activated via the controller 10 to quickly wind up the locking webbing 2. Therefore, unified control and management can be achieved through the controller 10, simplifying the structure of the seat locking device and improving its ease of control.

[0076] In some implementations, refer to Figure 5 As shown, the vehicle may further include a pressure sensor 11 embedded in the seat cushion of the seat assembly. The pressure sensor 11 is electrically connected to the controller 10, thereby allowing the determination of whether there is someone sitting in the seat assembly. For example, if the pressure value detected by the pressure sensor 11 is greater than a pressure threshold, it is determined that there is someone sitting in the seat assembly.

[0077] In some implementations, refer to Figure 5 As shown, the vehicle may further include a front collision sensor 12 disposed at the front of the vehicle body. The front collision sensor 12 is electrically connected to the controller 10. For example, the front collision sensor 12 may be mounted behind the front bumper of the vehicle to detect frontal collision impact forces. The front collision sensor 12 may include an acceleration sensor and / or a pressure wave sensor. For example, if the front collision sensor 12 detects that the collision acceleration reaches an acceleration threshold, the seat assembly has a forward tilting tendency, requiring the retractor 1 to tighten the locking webbing 2 to lock the current position of the seat assembly.

[0078] In summary, this utility model discloses a seat locking device, a seat assembly, and a vehicle. The device may include a retractor 1, a locking webbing 2, and a locking anchor point 3. The retractor 1 is located at the rear of the seat assembly. One end of the locking webbing 2 is connected to the retractor 1.
