AI Technical Summary
Existing seat control switches are cumbersome to operate, inconvenient to use while driving, and pose safety hazards. In particular, relying on the central control screen for operation leads to complicated steps and long periods of time that require shifting one's gaze.
Design a seat control switch that centrally arranges the physical buttons for adjustment functions on the side of the seat. Using components such as electroplated parts, internal slide rail parts, and silicone pads, it enables one-button direct adjustment. The digital level signal triggered by the button directly controls the seat motor, simplifying the operation steps and improving the response speed.
The operation steps have been reduced from three to five steps in the central control screen menu to one step, resulting in faster adjustment response, reduced eye shift time, improved human-computer interaction experience and ride comfort, and is ergonomic with a low rate of misoperation.

Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of seat technology, and in particular to a seat control switch. Background Technology
[0002] A chair is a piece of furniture or equipment that provides support for the human body and facilitates sitting. It consists of a support structure and a load-bearing part. It is widely used in homes, offices, transportation, and entertainment scenarios. Its design focuses on basic functionality to help the human body maintain a comfortable sitting posture to reduce fatigue. It also often combines ergonomics, aesthetics, and specific usage needs. For example, car seats need to take into account safety and shock absorption, while office chairs need to be adapted to spinal protection for long-term work.
[0003] Seat control switches are used to adjust the position of the seat. They are installed on the side of the seat, the inside of the door, or the center console in the form of buttons, knobs, levers, or touch panels. They transmit mechanical or electronic signals to achieve personalized adjustments to the seat, improving riding comfort and ease of use. They are commonly found in cars, airplanes, and high-end office chairs. However, manual switches require a lot of force to pull, and the adjustment process is choppy and difficult to control the angle precisely. Some knob switches require multiple rotations to complete the adjustment, which is inefficient. In existing technology, sliding friction is replaced with rolling friction: miniature ball bearings or PTFE-coated sliders are embedded in the transmission path of levers and knobs, which can significantly reduce the force required to pull or rotate. However, the current technology relies on the central control screen to operate the seat, which is cumbersome, inconvenient to operate while driving, and poses safety hazards. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a seat control switch, which aims to improve the problems of the existing technology that rely on the central control screen to operate the seat, resulting in cumbersome steps, inconvenience in operation while driving, and safety hazards.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a seat control switch, including a panel, wherein electroplated parts are installed on the top left and right ends of the panel, an electroplated upper piece is installed on the top of the electroplated parts, a main body shell is provided at the bottom of the panel, an electroplated frame is installed on the rear side of the panel, a plurality of laser-engraved keys are equidistantly installed on the top of the electroplated frame, a slide rail inner component is installed in the middle of the bottom end of the main body shell, a four-way adjustable plastic part is installed on the right side of the slide rail inner component, and a leg rest inner component is installed on the right side of the four-way adjustable plastic part.
[0006] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0007] Two adjustable plastic parts are provided on the left side of the slide rail internal component. A backrest internal component is installed on the top of the two adjustable plastic parts. A headrest internal component is installed on the rear side of the two adjustable plastic parts. A bracket is provided on the bottom inner side of the electroplated frame. Multiple internal components one are installed at equal intervals on the top of the bracket. Multiple internal components two are installed at equal intervals on the front side of the top of the bracket.

[0015] A second circuit board is mounted on the bottom of the silicone pad, a second rear cover is provided on the outer side of the bottom of the second circuit board, and a first rear cover is provided at the bottom of the main body shell.
[0016] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] In this invention, commonly used seat adjustment functions are physically integrated into buttons and centrally located on the side of the seat, easily accessible by the passenger's naturally hanging hand. This allows for one-touch adjustment, reducing the average three to five steps from the central control screen menu to just one. The adjustment response is faster, comfort is enhanced, and the switches are positioned within the passenger's natural operating area, minimizing arm movement during operation. Users do not need to focus their attention on the switches, significantly reducing the time spent looking down to search for screen menus or operating complex interfaces, thus improving the passenger experience. The human-machine interface is optimized, with clear button layout, well-defined labels, moderate key travel, and clear feedback, conforming to driver operating habits and ergonomics. Blind operation has high recognition accuracy and a low error rate, providing a more intuitive and comfortable operating experience. Attached Figure Description
