Both ends of the connecting rod 24 are rotatably connected to the connecting frame 23 and the movable support plate 13, respectively. The connecting frame 23 is provided with a threaded sleeve 26, which is threadedly connected to the lead screw 25. The threaded sleeve 26 is axially slidably connected to the connecting frame 23 and circumferentially engaged. The threaded sleeve 26 can only slide axially on the connecting frame 23 and cannot rotate. The mounting plate 12 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 14, and the lead screw 25 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 14. The mounting frame 14 provides support for the lead screw 25, enabling the lead screw 25 to stably drive the connecting frame 23 to move. The mounting frame 14 is fixedly mounted with a drive component 15 that is connected to and drives the lead screw 25 to rotate. The drive component 15 is a motor, and the motor output shaft drives the lead screw 25 to rotate, thus realizing the function of driving the lead screw 25 to rotate.
[0039] The buffer structure includes a buffer plate 31, a screw 32, a spring 33, and a flexible sleeve 34. The buffer plate 31 is fixedly connected to the threaded sleeve 26. The screw 32 is fixedly mounted on the connecting frame 23 and passes through the buffer plate 31. The spring 33 and the flexible sleeve 34 are sleeved on the screw 32, located between the buffer plate 31 and the connecting frame 23. A washer 35 is fitted onto the screw 32, located between the spring 33 and the flexible sleeve 34. The washer 35 increases the effective area of the spring force of the spring 33 on the flexible sleeve 34, preventing the spring 33 from puncturing the washer 35 and improving reliability. A nut 36 is threadedly connected to the screw 32, and the buffer plate 31 is engaged with the spring 33 and the nut 36 on both sides. The nut 36 holds the buffer plate 31 in place, preventing it from accidentally slipping off the screw 32. Nut 36 presses down on buffer plate 31, keeping buffer plate 31 pressing down on spring 33. This ensures that spring 33 always applies elastic force to connecting frame 23, adjusting the supporting force of spring 33 on movable support plate 13 through connecting frame 23 and connecting rod 24. At least two nuts 36 are provided on screw 32, with adjacent nuts 36 abutting against each other. In this embodiment, two nuts 36 are provided on one screw 32, and the friction between the two nuts 36 and screw 32 prevents the nuts 36 from rotating accidentally during vibration, improving stability. A locking block 27 is fixedly connected to threaded sleeve 26, engaging with the side of connecting frame 23 away from screw 32.

Air pump 42 drives air through ventilation pipe 41 and upper ventilation hole 43 to blow air onto the occupant's back, providing ventilation and heat dissipation for the seat and improving seating comfort. Movable support plate 13 has a through groove 45, and mounting plate 12 has a lower ventilation hole 44 connected to ventilation pipe 41. The position of lower ventilation hole 44 corresponds to the position of through groove 45. Air pump 42 drives air through ventilation pipe 41, lower ventilation hole 44, and through groove 45 to blow air onto the occupant's waist, increasing the effective ventilation and heat dissipation range and further improving seating comfort.
[0041] A sponge pad is placed on the upper part of the movable support plate 13 and the mounting plate 12, and then the sponge, seat frame 11, and mounting plate 12 are wrapped with leather or fabric. When the vehicle occupant sits in the seat, the movable support plate 13 and the mounting plate 12 support the occupant through the sponge pad. The drive member 15 drives the screw 32 to rotate, the screw 32 drives the threaded sleeve 26 connected to it to move, and the threaded sleeve 26 drives the connecting bracket 23 to move. During the movement, the connecting bracket 23 drives the movable support plate 13 to flip on the mounting plate 12 through the connecting rod 24, thereby adjusting the support position of the movable support plate 13 for the occupant. By aligning the mounting plate 12 with the position of the seat back, the adjustable movable plate is positioned at the occupant's waist. When the adjustable movable plate rotates on the mounting plate 12, the seat's support for the occupant's waist can be adjusted.
[0042] When the lead screw 25 drives the threaded sleeve 26 to move closer to the screw 32, it can engage with the connecting frame 23 through the locking block 27 and push the connecting frame 23 to move closer to the screw 32. When the lead screw 25 drives the threaded sleeve 26 to move closer to the locking block 27, it can push the connecting frame 23 to move closer to the locking block 27 through the buffer plate 31, spring 33, washer 35, and flexible sleeve 34, thus realizing the function of the threaded sleeve 26 driving the connecting frame 23 to move in different directions.
[0043] This embodiment has the following advantages:
[0044] When the vehicle vibrates, the adjustable lumbar support plate is compressed by the occupants and the mounting plate 12. As the pressure from the occupants increases, the adjustable lumbar support plate pushes the connecting bracket 23 to slide on the threaded sleeve 26 via the connecting rod 24. The connecting bracket 23 then compresses the spring 33 against the buffer plate 31, thus absorbing the impact. This application utilizes an adjustable lumbar support structure to improve the seat's cushioning effect, achieving the advantage of better cushioning performance.
[0045] The flexible sleeve 34 is made of rubber. By setting the flexible sleeve 34 between the connecting frame 23 and the spring 33, the mechanical friction and vibration generated during vehicle operation transmitted to the connecting frame 23 can be blocked, thereby improving the seating comfort.
