Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seat adjustment equipment technology, and in particular to a seat flipping mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Seating is a primary facility in theaters, cinemas, and other similar venues. Existing seating is generally fixed in place, which no longer meets the diverse needs of the market. To achieve seat rotation, the entire device needs to meet certain dimensions in the width direction. For seats arranged front-to-back, this significantly occupies installation space in the width direction, especially in scenarios where installation space is limited and the device cannot be pushed forward or backward or rotated using levers, resulting in low space utilization. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a seat flipping mechanism with a compact structure. It uses mechanics to flip the seat, is easy to control, reduces the overall size of the device in the width direction, improves the space utilization rate, and meets the diversified needs of the market.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A seat flipping mechanism includes a drive assembly and a flipping assembly. The drive assembly includes a drive motor, a push rod, and a push rod mounting base. The drive motor controls the movable part of the push rod to perform linear reciprocating motion, and the push rod mounting base is used to fix the fixed part of the push rod.
[0006] The flipping assembly includes a push rod connecting lug, a transmission plate, a flipping bracket, a rotating shaft, and two bearing supports. The transmission plate is arc-shaped with a groove and several lug fixing holes. The push rod connecting lug connects the movable outer end of the push rod to the transmission plate. The flipping bracket has a rotating shaft fixing hole in the middle, a stepped pin inserted into the groove at one end, and a seat connecting lug at the other end. Bearings are mounted on the two bearing supports. The rotating shaft passes through the rotating shaft fixing hole and is connected to the bearings at both ends. The transmission plate coincides with the central axis of the rotating shaft. The connecting surfaces of the push rod connecting lug and the transmission plate are also arc-shaped, ensuring a tight fit. The flipping bracket is fixed to the rotating shaft in a cross shape, and the seat connecting lug connects to the seat. During operation, the drive motor drives the push rod to move the transmission plate between the two bearing supports. During this movement, the groove exerts a downward or upward force on the stepped pin, causing the flipping bracket to swing around the rotating shaft and achieve flipping.
[0007] Preferably, a connecting block is provided between the movable outer end of the push rod and the push rod connecting lug, which can be connected and fixed by the flange at the end.
[0008] Preferably, the arc α of the transmission plate is between 100° and 115°, the angle through which the starting point and ending point of the slide groove rotates along the arc surface of the transmission plate is ≥90°, and when the transmission plate is flattened, the angle β between the slide groove and the axis of the transmission plate in the horizontal direction is between 40° and 50°. The slide groove is diagonally inclined on the transmission plate, so that the rotation angle ranges from 0° to 90°.
[0009] Preferably, the number of seat connecting ear seats is two and they are arranged symmetrically for better connection and fixation of the seat.
[0010] Preferably, the transmission plate located between the two bearing supports is provided with stops on both sides to provide protection and limit movement.
[0011] Preferably, the stop is made of angle steel.
[0012] The advantages of this utility model are: 1. The mechanism has a compact structure, and the seat flipping is achieved mechanically, making control simple;
[0013] 2. The push rod is set parallel to the central axis of the rotating shaft, which reduces the overall size of the equipment in the width direction, saves installation space in the width direction, and is suitable for use with seats arranged in front and behind. It is especially suitable for scenarios where the equipment installation space is small and cannot be pushed back and forth, and the overall flipping is achieved by using the lever principle, thereby improving the space utilization rate and meeting the diversified needs of the market.
