Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of furniture, and in particular relates to a seat frame mounting structure and a sofa containing the structure. Background Technology

[0002] A sofa is a piece of furniture for resting, commonly used in living rooms, reception rooms, and other similar spaces. A sectional sofa is constructed by joining the seat frame, backrest, and armrests using various connecting structures. Chinese Patent Publication No. CN221997416U discloses a sofa seat frame and its supporting skeleton. Specifically, it discloses the sofa seat frame body, which has multiple T-shaped slots on all four sides. T-shaped blocks are movably embedded in each of these slots. The T-shaped blocks are divided into two groups, and elastic elements are fixedly connected to the opposite faces of the two groups of T-shaped blocks. The two groups of T-shaped blocks are embedded into the T-shaped slots, causing the elastic elements to intersect, thus increasing their load-bearing capacity. Multiple limiting plates are then embedded into limiting grooves on the outer surfaces of the four sides of the sofa seat frame body, fitting against the upper ends of the T-shaped blocks to limit and fix them. Multiple bolts are threaded into the mounting holes and limiting holes, fixing the limiting plates inside the limiting grooves. This prevents the T-shaped blocks from falling out of the T-shaped slots. However, this sofa seat frame has a complex structure and is relatively cumbersome to assemble and disassemble with other sofa accessories. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to solve at least one problem of the prior art by proposing a seat frame mounting structure and a sofa containing the structure.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a seat frame installation structure, including at least two crossbeams, with connectors installed at both ends of the crossbeams. Adjacent crossbeams are connected by support members. The two ends of the crossbeams are connected to the armrests or sofa frames to form a seat frame. The armrests or sofa frames are provided with support members for interlocking with the connectors.

[0005] As an optional implementation, the crossbeam is equipped with a connecting rod, the connecting rod having a slot along its length, the support member being an Oxford cloth or Teslin cloth component, and both ends of the support member having limiting rods for engaging with the slots.

[0006] As an optional implementation, the support member is a reinforcing rod or a supporting elastic member.

[0007] As an optional implementation, the socket is a socket buckle with a limiting groove that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, and the plug is a plug plate that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The plug plate engages with the limiting groove on the socket buckle.

[0008] As an optional implementation, the crossbeam, the bearing, and the connector are all metal components.

[0009] As an optional implementation, a protective shell is fitted over the outer side of the seat frame.

[0010] This utility model also proposes a sofa having the above-mentioned seat frame mounting structure.

[0011] As an optional implementation, the sofa also includes a backrest connected to the armrests, and the crossbeam abuts against the backrest.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting plug-in parts at both ends of the crossbeam, the plug-in parts at both ends of the crossbeam are connected to the support parts on the armrest or sofa frame to form a seat frame. The crossbeams are connected by support parts, making the overall structure of the seat frame simple and novel. The support parts play a certain supporting role and can also improve the strength of the seat frame to a certain extent. The seat frame can be formed simply by plugging the crossbeams with other sofa accessories such as armrests or sofa frames, which makes disassembly and assembly relatively convenient.

They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0019] In the description of this application, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "setup" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0020] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 This embodiment provides a seat frame installation structure, including at least two crossbeams 1. The two ends of the crossbeams 1 are equipped with connectors 5. Adjacent crossbeams 1 are connected by support members 2. The two ends of the crossbeams 1 are connected to the armrests 3 or the sofa frame 4 to form a seat frame. The armrests 3 or the sofa frame 4 are provided with support plugs 6 for interlocking with the connectors 5.

[0022] The number of crossbeams 1 can be set according to needs, such as 2, 3, or 4. The more crossbeams 1 there are, the higher the support strength of the seat frame. To maintain the flatness of the upper surface of the seat frame, the crossbeams 1 are arranged in parallel. The two ends of the crossbeams 1 can also be connected to the armrests 3 or the sofa frame 4 using detachable connection methods such as mortise and tenon joints or screws. Users can choose to connect the two ends of the crossbeams 1 to the two armrests 3, or connect the two ends of the crossbeams 1 to the armrests 3 and the sofa frame 4 respectively, or connect the two ends of the crossbeams 1 to the two sofa frames 4 respectively, depending on the usage needs of the sofa.

[0023] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The crossbeam 1 is equipped with a connecting rod, and the connecting rod has a bayonet along its length. The support member 2 is made of Oxford cloth or Teslin cloth. Both ends of the support member 2 are provided with limiting rods for engaging with the bayonet, which facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the support member 2.

[0024] In this embodiment, the support member 2 is a reinforcing rod or a supporting elastic member.

[0025] In this embodiment, both the socket 6 and the connector 5 are provided with fastening holes for installing fastening screws or pins. The socket 6 is a socket buckle with a limiting groove that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The connector 5 is a connector plate that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The connector plate and the limiting groove on the socket buckle are engaged and snapped together, making it easy to assemble and disassemble the socket 6 and the connector 5, and making the connection relatively firm.

[0026] In this embodiment, the crossbeam 1, the support element 6, and the connector 5 are all metal components. Provided that strength requirements are met, the crossbeam 1 can also be made of wood, and the support element 6 and connector 5 can also be made of wood or rigid plastic.

[0027] In this embodiment, a protective shell is fitted over the outer side of the seat frame. The protective shell enhances the aesthetics while providing some protection. The material of the protective shell includes, but is not limited to, imitation leather, genuine leather, or velvet. To facilitate the installation and removal of the protective shell, zippers, buttons, or Velcro closures can be provided.
