[0040] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an adjustable sofa frame includes a sofa frame base 1, a linkage function frame 2 is installed on the sofa frame base 1, and the linkage function frame 2 includes cushion mounting frames 3 symmetrically arranged inside the sofa frame base 1. The cushion mounting frames 3 are connected to the sofa frame base 1 through a sliding component 4 and slide relative to the sofa frame base 1 through the drive component 5.

[0042] One end of the seat cushion mounting bracket 3 is hinged to the backrest mounting bracket 6, and the backrest mounting bracket 6 is tilted back and unfolded by the drive component 5.

[0043] A support connection component 7 for extending the seat cushion connection is connected to the other end of the seat cushion mounting frame 3. The support connection component 7 is connected to the drive component 5 and is linked with the seat cushion mounting frame 3. The support connection component 7 actively extends the front edge of the seat cushion, significantly increasing the flat area after the functional frame is unfolded. The connection and drive between the drive component 5 and the support connection component 7 control the overall sliding of the seat cushion mounting frame 3 and the backrest mounting frame 6 to tilt backward, simplifying the structure and reducing the failure rate.

[0044] Specifically, the support connection assembly 7 includes a support assembly 701 for extending and supporting the seat cushion connection and a connection assembly 702 for connecting the drive assembly 5;

[0045] The support component 701 is connected to the seat cushion mounting frame 3 and is located at the opposite end of the backrest mounting frame 6. The support component 701 is hinged to the drive component 5 through the connecting component 702. The drive component 5 drives the connecting component 702 to move the support component 701 and drives the seat cushion mounting frame 3 to slide relative to the sofa frame base 1, thereby causing the backrest mounting frame 6 to tilt back and unfold.

[0046] The support assembly 701 includes a first connecting rod 70101 connected to the seat cushion mounting frame 3. One end of the first connecting rod 70101 is fixedly connected to the seat cushion mounting frame 3, and the other end is fixedly connected to a support member 70102 that can be used to connect the sofa seat cushion.

[0047] The support member 70102 is hinged to the connecting assembly 702 via a rotating rod 70103, and the support member 70102 is equipped with a retractable support foot 70104.

[0048] Furthermore, the lower end of the support foot 70104 is equipped with a roller, which makes it easier to unfold and store the support foot 70104.

[0049] In this embodiment, the support member 70102 is provided with an arc-shaped first sliding groove 70105, the upper end of the support foot 70104 is hinged to the support member 70102, and the middle part is connected to the first sliding groove 70105 through a first connecting shaft 70106.

[0050] With the hinge point between the upper end of the support leg 70104 and the support member 70102 as the center, it can reciprocate within the arc-shaped first sliding groove 70105 via the first connecting shaft 70106 to store or unfold the support leg 70104, thus avoiding the space-consuming problem of traditional fixed brackets.

[0051] The support foot 70104 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 70103.

[0052] Its connecting component 702 includes a second connecting rod 70201, the connecting end 70202 of the second connecting rod 70201 is hinged to the driving component 5, and the pushing end 70203 of the second connecting rod 70201 is hinged to the rotating rod 70103.

[0053] In this embodiment, the sofa frame base 1 includes side plates 101 located on both sides and a first support rod 102 and a second support rod 103 arranged parallel to each other between the two side plates 101. The seat cushion mounting bracket 3, the sliding assembly 4, and the backrest mounting bracket 6 are all symmetrically arranged inside the two side plates 101.

[0054] The drive assembly 5 includes a sliding rod 501 located between the first support rod 102 and the second support rod 103. One end of the sliding rod 501 is provided with a drive motor 502. The drive motor 502 drives the slider 503 to move on the sliding rod 501. The connecting end 70202 of the second connecting rod 70201 is hinged to the slider 503.

[0055] The rotating rod 70103 is parallel to the first support rod 102 and the second support rod 103.

[0056] Furthermore, the seat cushion mounting bracket 3 includes a backrest connecting end 301, an extension connecting end 302, and a seat cushion mounting part 303. The backrest connecting end 301 is hinged to the backrest mounting bracket 6, and the extension connecting end 302 is fixedly connected to the first connecting rod 70101 and moves synchronously.

[0057] A limiting member 304 is provided on the lower side of the extended connection end 302. When the backrest mounting frame 6 is fully extended, the limiting member 304 is located on one side of the second support rod 103. The second support rod 103 limits the movement of the limiting member 304, thereby limiting the movement of the seat cushion mounting frame 3, accurately controlling the maximum sliding distance of the seat cushion, and preventing excessive extension from causing structural interference.

[0058] The backrest mounting bracket 6 includes an L-shaped connecting rod 601, a backrest connecting rod 602, and a connecting piece 603. The lower end of the connecting piece 603 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the side plate 101. The connecting piece 603 is provided with an arc-shaped third sliding groove 604. One end of the backrest connecting rod 602 is hinged to the connecting piece 603 and connected to the third sliding groove 604 through a third connecting shaft 605. One end of the connecting piece 603 is circular with the hinge point of the connecting piece 603, and can reciprocate within the arc-shaped third sliding groove 604 through the third connecting shaft 605.

[0059] The other end of the connecting piece 603 is hinged to the L-shaped connecting rod 601. The backrest connecting end 301 is provided with an arc-shaped second sliding groove 305. The L-shaped connecting rod 601 is connected to the second sliding groove 305 through the second connecting shaft 306. The lower end of the L-shaped connecting rod 601 is hinged to the backrest connecting end 301, and the upper end of the L-shaped connecting rod 601 is connected to the backrest plate 8. The L-shaped connecting rod 601 can reciprocate in the arc-shaped second sliding groove 305 with the hinge point with the backrest connecting end 301 as the center, and drive the backrest plate 8 to tilt backward through the second connecting shaft 306.

[0060] The backrest mounting bracket 6 and the seat cushion mounting bracket 3 are provided with double sliding grooves. The third sliding groove 604 of the connecting piece 603 limits the backward curvature of the backrest connecting rod 602. The second sliding groove 305 of the backrest connecting end 301 controls the rotation path of the L-shaped connecting rod 601, ensuring the angle when the backrest is unfolded and ensuring that the backrest mounting bracket 6 and the seat cushion slide synchronously, avoiding jamming or rebound.

[0061] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown in the figure, this is an unfolded view of the functional frame of this utility model. The drive motor 502 drives the slider 503 to move along the sliding rod 501 towards the second support rod 103, causing the push-out end 70203 of the second connecting rod 70201 to push the rotating rod 70103, thereby moving the first connecting rod 70101 and the seat cushion mounting bracket 3. Simultaneously, this causes the backrest mounting bracket 6 and the backrest panel 8 to tilt backward and unfold. When the backrest mounting bracket 6 and the backrest panel 8 are fully unfolded, the limiting member 304 is located on one side of the second support rod 103 and restricts the limiting member 304 and the seat cushion mounting bracket. As the frame 3 moves, the drive motor 502 continues to drive the slider 503 to move on the sliding rod 501, causing the push-out end 70203 of the second connecting rod 70201 to push the rotating rod 70103 to rotate. At the same time, the connecting end 70202 of the second connecting rod 70201 rotates, so that the support foot 70104 slides in the arc-shaped first slide groove 70105 with the hinge point between its upper end and the support member 70102 as the center, through the first connecting shaft 70106. The support foot 70104 rotates out and touches the ground, completing the support of the front end of the support connection assembly 7.

[0062] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, this is a diagram of the functional shelf of this utility model in its storage state when used as a sofa. Figure 1 and Figure 4In the unfolded state, when it is necessary to shorten the sofa cushion, the drive motor 502 drives the slider 503 to move on the sliding rod 501 toward the first support rod 102. The connecting end 70202 of the second connecting rod 70201 rotates, causing the pushing end 70203 of the second connecting rod 70201 to pull the rotating rod 70103 to rotate. This causes the support foot 70104 to slide in the opposite direction in the arc-shaped first slide groove 70105 with the hinge point between its upper end and the support member 70102 as the center, through the first connecting shaft 70106. This retracts the support foot 70104 on the lower side of the support member 70102 toward the first support rod 102 until the first connecting shaft 70106 moves from one end of the first slide groove 70105 to the other end, thus completing the retraction of the support foot 70104.

[0063] At this time, the drive motor 502 continues to drive the slider 503 to move towards the first support rod 102 side of the sliding rod 501. By pulling the rotating rod 70103, the first connecting rod 70101 and the seat cushion mounting bracket 3 are moved towards the first support rod 102 side, while the backrest mounting bracket 6 and the backrest panel 8 are restored to their original state until the slider 503 slides to the original position, thus completing the restoration of the entire functional frame and forming a normal sofa state.

[0064] The present invention provides a seat cushion mounting bracket 3 and a backrest mounting bracket 6 that achieve the linkage function of the seat cushion and the backrest through a simple mechanical structure. Users can easily adjust the posture of the sofa by simply using the drive component 5 without complicated operation steps. The support connection component 7 is set at a section of the active seat cushion mounting bracket 3 to extend the front edge of the seat cushion and provide support. After the functional frame is unfolded, the flat lying area is significantly expanded, making it more convenient to use.

[0065] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. However, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
