Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of office chair technology, specifically to an office chair gas spring adjustment mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In modern office environments, the comfort and functionality of office chairs are crucial for improving work efficiency and protecting user health. Traditional office chairs are typically equipped with gas springs for adjusting seat height and backrest angle. However, existing office chairs have some design flaws, particularly regarding the adjustment of the gas spring support position, which limits their comfort and safety when reclining.

[0003] The support position is fixed:

[0004] Traditional office chair gas springs typically have fixed support positions and cannot be adjusted according to the user's weight or reclining angle. This means that when the user lies down, the gas spring cannot provide sufficient support, which can easily cause the office chair to tilt or even tip over, posing a safety hazard.

[0005] Therefore, an office chair gas spring adjustment mechanism is needed to improve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a gas spring adjustment mechanism for office chairs to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] An office chair gas spring adjustment mechanism includes a base mounting bracket. The base mounting bracket has a central mounting groove on its inner side and inner sliding grooves on both sides of the central mounting groove. An internally threaded slider is slidably mounted inside the inner sliding groove. A gas spring mounting seat is fixedly mounted at the lower end of the internally threaded slider, and a gas spring is inserted into the gas spring mounting seat.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a motor is fixedly mounted on one side surface of the middle mounting groove inside the base mounting bracket, and a lead screw is provided at the output end of the motor.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the lead screw is threadedly connected to the internal thread slider.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a drive sleeve is provided on one side of the base mounting bracket, and a worm gear is provided inside the drive sleeve via a rotating shaft.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a worm gear is rotatably provided inside the drive sleeve, and a worm wheel is meshed with the worm gear.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the worm gear and the lead screw are fixedly connected.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an arc-shaped sliding sleeve is fixedly provided on the surface of the rotating shaft, and a backrest mounting plate is fixedly provided on the surface of the arc-shaped sliding sleeve.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0031] Please see Figure 1-8 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0032] A gas spring adjustment mechanism for an office chair includes a base mounting bracket 8. The base mounting bracket 8 has a central mounting groove on its inner side, and inner sliding grooves 5 on both sides of the central mounting groove. An internally threaded slider 4 slides within the inner sliding grooves 5. A gas spring mounting seat 9 is fixed to the lower end of the internally threaded slider 4. A gas spring 10 is inserted into the gas spring mounting seat 9. A drive sleeve 3 is fixed to the side of the seat plate. The base mounting bracket 8 fixes the lower end of the seat plate. A backrest is mounted on the surface of a backrest mounting plate 1. When the backrest needs to be reclined for rest, a motor 7 is started, driving a lead screw 6 to rotate. The lead screw 6 drives a worm gear 12 within the drive sleeve 3 to rotate. The worm gear 12 drives a worm wheel 11 to rotate. The worm wheel 11, through a rotating shaft 13, drives an arc-shaped sliding sleeve 2 to rotate within the drive sleeve 3, thereby rotating the backrest mounting plate 1 and reclining the backrest. Simultaneously, the gas spring mounting seat 9 slides within the inner sliding grooves 5, adjusting the support position of the gas spring 10 to accommodate the shift in center of gravity when the person lies down, preventing the office chair from tipping over.

[0033] As an example of this utility model, a motor 7 is fixedly provided on one side surface of the middle mounting groove inside the base mounting bracket 8, and a lead screw 6 is provided at the output end of the motor 7.

[0034] As an example of this utility model, the lead screw 6 is threadedly connected to the internal thread slider 4.

[0035] As an example of this utility model, a drive sleeve 3 is provided on one side of the base mounting bracket 8, and a worm gear 11 is provided inside the drive sleeve 3 via a rotating shaft 13.

[0036] As an example of this utility model, the drive sleeve 3 is provided with a worm gear 12 for rotation, and the worm wheel 11 is meshed with the worm gear 12.

[0037] As an example of this utility model, the worm gear 12 is fixedly connected to the lead screw 6.

[0038] As an example of this utility model, an arc-shaped sliding sleeve 2 is fixedly provided on the surface of the rotating shaft 13, and a backrest mounting plate 1 is fixedly provided on the surface of the arc-shaped sliding sleeve 2.

[0039] Working principle: In use, the drive sleeve 3 is fixed to the side of the seat, the base mounting bracket 8 is fixed to the lower end of the seat, and the backrest is installed on the surface of the backrest mounting plate 1. When it is necessary to recline the backrest for rest, the motor 7 is started to drive the lead screw 6 to rotate. The lead screw 6 drives the worm gear 12 inside the drive sleeve 3 to rotate. The worm gear 12 drives the worm wheel 11 to rotate. The worm wheel 11 drives the arc-shaped sliding sleeve 2 to rotate inside the drive sleeve 3 through the rotating shaft 13, thereby rotating the backrest mounting plate 1 and reclining the backrest. At the same time, the gas spring mounting seat 9 slides inside the inner sliding groove 5 to adjust the support position of the gas spring 10, thereby adapting to the center shift after the person lies down and preventing the office chair from tipping over.

[0040] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
