Detailed Implementation
[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Example 1
[0022] In order to adjust the tilt angle of the handrail 6 to improve the practicality of the device, combined with the attached... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 An adjustable armrest for an auditorium chair includes a base 1, a seat, and a backrest. Legs 2 are connected between the backrest and both sides of the base 1. Support rods 3 are connected to the top of the legs 2 on both sides of the backrest. Connecting blocks 4 are slidably connected to the support rods 3. Positioning pins are connected to the support rods 3 via elastic elements. Several limiting holes are provided on the connecting blocks 4, and the limiting holes and positioning pins can cooperate to achieve positioning. An armrest 5 is hinged to the top of the connecting blocks 4. An armrest 6 is provided at the top of the armrest 5. A positioning component for positioning the angle of the armrest 5 is connected to the armrest 5. The positioning component includes an incomplete fixing tooth 7 connected to the top of the connecting blocks 4. The top of the connecting blocks 4 is hinged to the armrest 5 via a hinge shaft. A limiting tooth 8 that meshes with the fixing tooth 7 is slidably connected inside the armrest 5.
[0023] In order to determine the tilt angle of the armrest 6 in order to provide stable support for the arm, combined with the attached... Figure 3 The handrail 5 is equipped with a limiting component that can lock the limiting tooth 8. The limiting component includes a drive cavity 9 located in the handrail 5. A U-shaped rod 10 is slidably arranged in the drive cavity 9. The drive cavity 9 has a drive component inside the U-shaped rod 10 that can drive the U-shaped rod 10. The drive component includes a drive shaft 13 hinged to the inside of the U-shaped rod 10 by a torsion spring. The other end of the drive shaft 13 rotatably passes through the drive cavity 9 and is connected to a pressure plate at its end. Wing plates 14 are respectively connected to both sides of the drive shaft 13. The distance between the ends of the wing plates 14 is the same as the distance between the inside of the U-shaped rod 10. Slide rods 11 are respectively provided at both ends of the U-shaped rod 10. The other end of one slide rod 11 slides through the drive cavity 9 and is connected to the limiting tooth 8. A first spring 12 is provided between the other end of the slide rod 11 and the drive cavity 9. An avoidance groove 15 is provided at the end of the drive cavity 9 near the limiting tooth 8. The avoidance groove 15 is slidably engaged with the limiting tooth 8.
[0024] Driven by a torsion spring, the drive shaft 13 drives the U-shaped rod 10 to overcome the action of the first spring 12 and slide the slide rod 11 out, so that the limiting tooth 8 meshes with the fixed tooth 7. Since the distance between the ends of the wing plates 14 is consistent with the distance between the inside of the U-shaped rod 10, the two wing plates 14 and the slide rod 11 are horizontal and abut against the inner wall of the U-shaped rod 10. The wing plates 14 and the slide rod 11 are collinear to form a "dead point", thereby realizing the positioning of the limiting tooth 8. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the armrest 5, the pressure plate drives the wing plate 14 to rotate through the drive shaft 13. When the wing plate 14 drives the U-shaped rod 10 to a vertical state, the slide rod 11 drives the U-shaped rod 10 through the first spring 12 to move the limiting tooth 8 along the axial direction of the slide rod 11. At this time, the limiting tooth 8 no longer meshes with the fixed tooth 7, and the angle of the armrest 5 can be adjusted at will.
[0025] Example 2
[0026] Based on Embodiment 1, in order to adjust the extension length of the handrail 6 to meet usage needs and improve the practicality of the device, in conjunction with the attached... Figure 4 The top of the handrail 5 is connected to a sliding groove 16, and a sliding sleeve 17 is provided in the sliding groove 16 to slide and cooperate with the sliding groove 16. The top of the sliding groove 16 is provided with a through hole, and several limiting grooves 18 are evenly arranged on both sides of the bottom end of the sliding groove 16. A limiting block 19 is slidably provided in the sliding sleeve 17. The limiting block 19 can slide downward through the sliding sleeve 17 and cooperate with the limiting groove 18. A connecting rod 20 is connected to the top of the limiting block 19. The connecting rod 20 slides through the sliding sleeve 17 and the through hole and is connected to the handrail 6 at the top. A spring 21 is sleeved on the connecting rod 20. The spring 21 is connected between the sliding sleeve 17 and the limiting block 19.
[0027] In the natural state of spring 21, the limiting block 19 slides out of the sliding sleeve 17 and engages with the limiting groove 18, thereby facilitating the positioning of the extension length of the handrail 6. When it is necessary to adjust the extension length of the handrail 6, by lifting the handrail 6, the handrail 6 drives the limiting block 19 to slide into the sliding sleeve 17 through the connecting rod 20. At this time, spring 21 is compressed and stored, and then the handrail 6 drives the sliding sleeve 17 to slide along the direction of the sliding groove 16 to adjust the extension length of the handrail 6 to the required length. When the handrail 6 is released, under the reset action of spring 21, the limiting block 19 is driven to engage with the limiting groove 18 again to achieve the positioning of the handrail 6.
