Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of neck support technology, and in particular to a smart sofa with a neck support structure. Background Technology
[0002] With people placing increasing emphasis on healthy lifestyles, smart furniture is gradually becoming an important development direction in the home furnishing market. Among them, the neck support of sofas directly affects the comfort and cervical spine health of users when sitting or lying down for long periods of time. Traditional sofa neck supports are mostly fixed designs, which are difficult to adapt to the different body shapes and sitting postures of different users, and can easily lead to muscle fatigue and uneven pressure on the cervical spine. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a smart structure that can dynamically conform to the curve of the neck and adaptively adjust the support force to improve comfort and reduce the health risks caused by long-term use.
[0003] Currently, most sofa neck supports on the market use a rigid frame with fixed filling foam. Some high-end products introduce electric adjustment mechanisms, which drive the headrest to move up and down or tilt at an angle via a motor. In addition, some solutions use zoned filling technology, such as combinations of foams with different densities, to provide differentiated support. The core principle of these technologies is to adjust the support position through preset mechanical structures or simple electric controls, but they lack the ability to actively adapt to the user's real-time posture.
[0004] However, the above technology has a key drawback: static support cannot adapt to the dynamic needs of the human body. Since the stress state of the neck varies significantly in different postures such as sitting, lying down, and tilting the head back, the fixed-shape support structure is difficult to match the changes in the neck curve in real time, resulting in insufficient support or excessive local pressure, which in turn leads to muscle strain and cervical discomfort. To address this issue, a smart sofa with a neck support structure is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a smart sofa with a neck support structure, which aims to solve the problem that existing neck support structures cannot dynamically conform to the changes in the curve of the user's neck due to static fixation.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A smart sofa with a neck support structure includes a sofa body, wherein multiple support components are disposed inside the sofa body;
[0008] The support assembly includes a connecting frame that is slidably connected inside the sofa body. A memory foam is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting frame, and an airbag is fixedly connected inside the memory foam. An air inlet is provided on one side of the airbag. Multiple springs are provided inside the connecting frame, with one end of each spring fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting frame and the other end fixedly connected to the outer wall of the memory foam. Multiple disc springs are also provided inside the connecting frame, with one end of each disc spring fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting frame and the other end fixedly connected to the outer wall of the memory foam. An installation assembly is provided inside the sofa body.
[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0010] The mounting assembly includes a support plate and a connecting shaft. The outer wall of the support plate is fixedly connected to the inside of the sofa body, and one end of the connecting shaft is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting frame.
[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0012] A connecting rod is fixedly connected inside the connecting shaft, and sliding discs are fixedly connected to both ends of the connecting rod.
[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0014] The outer wall of the sliding disk is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting shaft, and a sliding ring is slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod.
[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0016] A second spring is provided on one side of the sliding ring. One end of the second spring is fixedly connected to one side wall of the sliding ring, and the other end is fixedly connected to one side wall of the sliding disk. Multiple slots are provided inside the support plate.
[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0018] The outer wall of the sliding ring is rotatably connected to a symmetrical transmission rod. Each side of the transmission rod is rotatably connected to a limiting ball, and the limiting balls are all engaged with the slot.
[0019] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0020] One side of each limiting ball is rotatably connected to a transmission rod two, and one side of each transmission rod two is rotatably connected to a sliding ring two, which is slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod.
[0021] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0022] A spring is provided on one side of the sliding ring two. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding ring two, and the other end is fixedly connected to the side wall of another sliding disc.
[0023] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0024] 1. In this utility model, when the user fits their neck against the memory foam, the memory foam will be squeezed when the user fully relaxes their head, causing the memory foam to deform elastically and further driving the spring and disc spring to deform elastically. The airbag can dynamically adapt to the dynamic changes of the user's neck, thereby providing the user with a more comfortable user experience. This solves the problem of uneven pressure distribution caused by traditional rigid support structures, and significantly improves the efficiency of neck muscle relaxation and the comfort of long-term use.
[0025] 2. In this utility model, by pulling the memory foam, the connecting shaft slides inside the support plate, thereby squeezing the limiting ball. The limiting ball further squeezes the second and third springs, causing the second and third springs to undergo elastic deformation, thereby achieving the effect of quick disassembly and installation of the support structure. This solves the problem that the support structure is not easy to disassemble and clean, and improves the efficiency of cleaning and replacement and the convenience of use.

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present invention provides an embodiment of a smart sofa with a neck support structure, comprising a sofa body 1, wherein a plurality of support components are provided inside the sofa body 1, the support components being used to provide comfortable support for the user's neck;
[0035] The support component includes a connecting frame 2, which provides a stable connection and support to ensure the stability of the support component's movement. The connecting frame 2 is slidably connected inside the sofa body 1. Memory foam 3 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting frame 2. The memory foam 3 absorbs instantaneous pressure impacts, preventing discomfort caused by the rapid deformation of the airbag 4. Memory foam 3 also has excellent elastic recovery, ensuring it returns to its original shape after being compressed. An airbag 4 is fixedly connected inside the memory foam 3. The airbag 4 is filled with air, providing stable elastic support for the user's neck. An air inlet 5 is located on one side of the airbag 4 for convenient use. Personnel inflate the airbag 4 to ensure its stability. Multiple springs 6 are installed inside the connecting frame 2. The function of springs 6 is to absorb some of the impact force and ensure the comfort of the user when using the support structure. One end of spring 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting frame 2, and the other end is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the memory foam 3. Multiple disc springs 7 are installed inside the connecting frame 2. The function of disc springs 7 is to further absorb the impact force. One end of disc spring 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting frame 2, and the other end is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the memory foam 3. An installation component is installed inside the sofa body 1 to facilitate the operator to clean and maintain the support structure at any time.
[0036] Specifically, when a user experiences neck stagnation, muscle tension, or postural fatigue, requiring dynamic support to prevent cervical strain, the memory foam 3 is first tightly fitted to the user's neck. When the user fully relaxes their head, the memory foam 3 elastically deforms under pressure, perfectly adapting to the shape of the user's neck, thus providing elastic support. As the memory foam 3 is compressed and deformed, the airbag 4 also begins to elastically deform, further compensating for the force on the neck and ensuring the user's comfort. The airbag 4 not only provides additional support but also effectively relieves pressure and prevents fatigue caused by prolonged use. When the memory foam 3 and airbag 4 elastically deform together, the force continues to be transmitted to spring 6 and disc spring 7. Spring 6 and disc spring 7 absorb external impact and store elastic potential energy. The synchronous deformation of spring 6 and disc spring 7 ensures that the support structure always maintains an ergonomic state, providing stable and comfortable protection for the user's neck.
[0037] Reference Figure 3 - Figure 5The mounting assembly includes a support plate 8 and a connecting shaft 9. The outer wall of the support plate 8 is fixedly connected to the inside of the sofa body 1. One end of the connecting shaft 9 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting frame 2. A connecting rod 10 is fixedly connected inside the connecting shaft 9. The function of the support plate 8 and the connecting shaft 9 in the mounting assembly is to provide stable support and connection for the mounting assembly, ensuring the stability of the installation support structure. Both ends of the connecting rod 10 are fixedly connected to sliding plates 11. The outer wall of the sliding plates 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting shaft 9. A sliding ring 12 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod 10. The function of the sliding ring 12 is to further transmit power, thereby ensuring that the power can drive subsequent components. A spring 2 13 is provided on one side of the sliding ring 12. The function of the spring 2 13 is to provide elastic support and elastic restoring force, ensuring that the assembly can quickly reset after installation or disassembly, ensuring the stable movement of the assembly. One end of the spring 2 13 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding ring 12, and the other end is fixedly connected to the side wall of one of the sliding plates 11. Multiple slots 19 are opened inside the support plate 8. The slot 19 functions in conjunction with other components to ensure the locking and unlocking of the installation assembly. The outer wall of the sliding ring 12 is rotatably connected to symmetrical transmission rods 14. The transmission rods 14 also provide rotational power, further ensuring the retraction of the limit balls 15. Each side of the transmission rod 14 is rotatably connected to a limit ball 15, which engages with the slot 19. Through the interaction of the limit balls 15 and the slot 19, operators can quickly install and disassemble the support structure, facilitating operation. The supporting structure is cleaned regularly. A transmission rod 16 is rotatably connected to one side of the limiting ball 15. A sliding ring 17 is rotatably connected to one side of the transmission rod 16. The sliding ring 17 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod 10. A spring 18 is provided on one side of the sliding ring 17. The function of the spring 18 is to provide a reverse force to the limiting ball 15, ensuring that the limiting ball 15 can be stably inserted into the slot 19. One end of the spring 18 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding ring 17, and the other end is fixedly connected to the side wall of another sliding plate 11.
[0038] Specifically, when regular cleaning and maintenance, replacement of personalized support modules, or transportation and storage are required, operators can disassemble the structure by pulling the memory foam 3. Under the pulling force, the connecting shaft 9 slides inside the support plate 8. As the connecting shaft 9 slides, a certain amount of compressive force is generated. This compressive force pushes the limiting ball 15 to contract inwards towards the connecting shaft 9. During the movement of the limiting ball 15, the transmission rod 14 and transmission rod 2 16 will also rotate and shift accordingly, thereby further transmitting the force to the sliding ring 12 and sliding ring 2 17. This causes the sliding ring 12 and sliding ring 2 17 to slide along the outer wall of the connecting rod 10, thereby compressing the spring 3 18 and spring 2 13. The elastic deformation of the spring 3 18 and spring 2 13 helps to store more elastic potential energy and also plays a buffering role, ultimately causing the limiting ball 15 to disengage from the slot 19, thus unlocking the support structure. After unlocking, operators can easily clean and maintain the support structure, greatly improving the ease of use.
[0039] Working Principle: When using this sofa's neck support structure, the user first places their neck against the memory foam 3. As the user fully relaxes their head, the memory foam 3 elastically deforms under the pressure applied, ensuring it conforms perfectly to the user's neck and provides elastic support. Simultaneously, the airbag 4 also elastically deforms, further compensating for the force on the user's neck and ensuring comfort. While the memory foam 3 and airbag 4 are deformed, the force is further transmitted to spring 6 and disc spring 7, causing them to elastically deform synchronously, storing elastic potential energy and absorbing impact. This ensures the support structure maintains an ergonomic neck support state, protecting the user's neck. Providing stable comfort, when the support structure needs cleaning, the operator pulls the memory foam 3, causing the connecting shaft 9 to slide inside the support plate 8 under the pulling force. Simultaneously, the sliding of the connecting shaft 9 generates a squeezing force, which drives the limiting ball 15 to contract inwards towards the connecting shaft 9. The movement of the limiting ball 15 also drives the transmission rod 14 and transmission rod 2 16 to rotate and deflect, further transmitting the force to the sliding ring 2 17 and sliding ring 12. This causes the sliding ring 2 17 and sliding ring 12 to slide on the outer wall of the connecting rod 10, thereby squeezing the spring 3 18 and spring 2 13. This causes the spring 3 18 and spring 2 13 to undergo simultaneous elastic deformation, storing elastic potential energy. This allows the limiting ball 15 to disengage from the slot 19, unlocking the structure. After unlocking, the user can clean and maintain the support structure at any time, providing convenience.
