AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

When adjusting from a sitting to a reclining position, the seat cushion of the existing high-speed rail business class seats may shift forward, potentially causing the passenger's buttock support point to shift forward and resulting in a safety hazard of the passenger slipping off.

Method used

Design a motion frame for a business chair that can unfold and lie flat at a large angle. Through the cooperation of a horizontal movement mechanism and a track groove, the seat cushion can move horizontally and in an arc. Combined with the linkage of a limiting slide and a rocker arm, it ensures that the front of the seat cushion does not move forward and raises the support point to prevent slipping.

Benefits of technology

This effectively prevents passengers from slipping and improves the comfort and safety of seat adjustments.

[0027] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] See Figures 1-6 To address the problems mentioned in the background section, this utility model provides a business chair frame that can be laid flat at a large angle to solve the aforementioned technical problems. The technical solution is as follows:

[0029] A business chair frame that can be laid flat at a large angle includes: a seat base 1, an upper support plate 2, a track plate 3, a seat frame motion plate 4, a backrest 5, a rocker arm 6, and a horizontal movement mechanism.

[0030] The upper support plate 2 is fixed to the seat base 1; the horizontal moving mechanism is set on the upper support plate 2;

[0031] Track plates 3 are fixed in pairs at intervals on the upper support plate 2; track grooves 3-1 are distributed on the outer side of track plates 3 along their length direction; track grooves 3-1 include connected straight segment track grooves 3-11 and arc segment track grooves 3-12; the arc segment track grooves 3-12 extend upward on the side away from the straight segment track grooves 3-11.

[0032] Each track plate 3 has an independent seat frame motion plate 4 on its outer side; the top of the two seat frame motion plates 4 is used to assemble the seat cushion; the structure of the seat cushion is not shown in the attached drawings.

[0033] The front side of the seat frame motion plate 4 is connected to the drive end of the horizontal moving mechanism, and the rear side of the seat frame motion plate 4 is slidably connected to the track groove 3-1 through the limiting slide 4-1;

[0034] The lower end of the backrest 5 is hinged to the seat frame moving plate 4; the upper end of the rocker arm 6 is hinged to the backrest 5, and its lower end is hinged to the rear side of the seat frame moving plate 4.

[0035] The present invention provides a method for adjusting the motion frame of a business chair that can be fully reclined at a large angle, as follows:

[0036] 1. Control the horizontal movement mechanism to drive the seat frame movement plate 4 (the seat cushion is fixed on the seat frame movement plate 4) to move forward. During the forward movement of the seat frame movement plate 4, its movement path is restricted by the track groove 3-1. That is, the seat frame movement plate 4 moves forward along the straight section track groove 3-11 first, and the seat cushion moves horizontally first.

[0037] 2. After entering the arc track groove 3-12, the limiting slide 4-1 slides along the upward arc track, causing the four sides of the seat frame to move forward and slightly rise, so that the front of the seat cushion will not extend too far forward when lying down. Instead, the upward movement raises the support point and prevents the passenger from slipping.

[0038] 3. Because the lower end of the backrest 5 is hinged to the seat frame moving plate 4, the upper end of the rocker arm 6 is hinged to the backrest 5, and the lower end of the rocker arm 6 is hinged to the rear side of the seat frame moving plate 4, the seat frame moving plate 4 and the backrest 5 form a linkage mechanism.

[0039] As the seat frame motion plate 4 moves forward, the rocker arm 6 drives the backrest 5 to tilt backward, forming a linkage operation of "slightly lifting the seat cushion + tilting the backrest back", which unfolds the backrest 5 and the seat cushion on the seat in sequence to form the requirements of semi-reclining and reclining sitting positions.

[0040] In this embodiment, the limiting slide 4-1 includes a rolling element and a rotating shaft that is connected to the rolling element; one end of the rotating shaft is fixed on the seat frame moving plate 4; the rolling element is one of a roller, a bearing or a bushing.

[0041] In this embodiment, both ends of the track groove 3-1 are fixed with blocks 8 to limit the moving boundary of the sliding member 4-1; the block 8 is made of polyurethane block.

[0042] In this embodiment, the horizontal movement mechanism includes a rack mounting plate 7, a rack 7-1, a gear 8, and a drive motor; the drive motor is not labeled in the accompanying drawings.

[0043] The rack mounting plate 7 slides linearly inside the track plate 3; the rack 7-1 is fixed to the bottom of the rack mounting plate 7.

[0044] The drive motor is fixed on the upper support plate 2, and the main shaft 9-1 of the drive motor is fixed with a gear 8; the gear 8 and rack 7-1 on the same side are meshed and connected for transmission.

[0045] The horizontal moving mechanism drives the gear 8 to mesh with the rack 7-1 via the drive motor, and combined with the guide rail slider, causes the seat frame moving plate 4 to complete the forward movement operation.

[0046] In this embodiment, the front side of the seat frame moving plate 4 is connected to the rack mounting plate 7 in the horizontal moving mechanism via a rotating shaft 9.

[0047] In this embodiment, the rack mounting plate 7 and the track plate 3 slide together via a linear guide and a slider.

[0048] The present invention provides a business seat frame that can be laid flat at a large angle, which has the following advantages: The present invention designs a business seat frame that can be laid flat at a large angle. Through the coordinated design of various structures, it solves the problem that the seat cushion may slip off the seat if it moves forward, and at the same time improves the comfort and safety of seat adjustment.

The components shown as components may or may not be physical components; they may be located in one place or distributed across multiple network components. Some or all of the modules can be selected to achieve the purpose of this embodiment according to actual needs.
