Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0023] Reference Figures 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a movable armrest for a gaming chair, comprising a base plate 1, a load-bearing plate 2 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the base plate 1, a motor 3 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the load-bearing plate 2, a rotating shaft 4 fixedly provided at the output end of the motor 3, a load-bearing block 5 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 4, the lower surface of the load-bearing block 5 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1, a first connecting plate 6 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 4, a first fixed shaft 7 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the first connecting plate 6, a second connecting plate 8 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the first fixed shaft 7, a second fixed shaft 9 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the second connecting plate 8, a connecting block 10 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second fixed shaft 9, a support plate 11 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the connecting block 10, a limit post 12 fixedly connected inside the support plate 11, and a support assembly provided on the upper surface of the base plate 1, the support assembly being used for limiting offset and providing support.

[0024] Specifically, the load-bearing block 5 supports the rotating shaft 4, the load-bearing plate 2 supports and fixes the motor 3, the second fixed shaft 9 supports the second connecting plate 8, the first connecting plate 6 supports the first fixed shaft 7, the connecting block 10 fixes the support plate 11, and the support plate 11 fixes the limiting post 12. When the rotating shaft 4 rotates, the first connecting plate 6 will rotate simultaneously. The first connecting plate 6 will cause the second connecting plate 8 to rotate through the first fixed shaft 7. When the second connecting plate 8 rotates, it will drive the second fixed shaft 9 to make the connecting block 10 move upward, and will also cause the support plate 11 to rotate. This will allow the support plate 11 to tilt at different angles to adapt to different usage requirements.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The support assembly includes a support block 13, the lower surface of which is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1, the outer wall of the support plate 11 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support block 13, a limit plate 14 is slidably connected to the upper inner side of the support block 13, the lower surface of the limit plate 14 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the support plate 11, a connecting rod 15 is fixedly connected to the inside of the limit plate 14, the outer wall of the connecting rod 15 is slidably connected to the lower inner side of the support block 13, and the outer wall of the connecting rod 15 is slidably connected to the inside of the load-bearing block 5.

[0026] Specifically, the limiting plate 14 limits the offset of the limiting post 12, the support block 13 supports the limiting post 12 and limits its offset, the connecting rod 15 connects the two limiting plates 14, the support block 13 supports the limiting plate 14, when the right limiting plate 14 moves forward, it will drive the left limiting plate 14 to slide forward inside the support block 13 through the connecting rod 15, and limit the offset of the limiting post 12, so that the right support plate 11 can achieve the effect of rotating upward.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 A hydraulic cylinder 16 is connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 16 is fixedly connected to the inside of the limiting plate 14. An armrest frame 27 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the base plate 1. A chair body 28 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the armrest frame 27.

[0028] Specifically, the base plate 1 has a fixing function on the hydraulic cylinder 16, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 16 has a fixing support function on the limit plate 14, and the handrail frame 27 has a fixing function on the base plate 1.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The inner wall of the support plate 11 is slidably connected to the outer shell 17, the outer wall of the outer shell 17 is slidably connected to the sliding plate 18, the inner wall of the sliding plate 18 is slidably connected to the support shell 19, the upper inner wall of the support shell 19 is slidably connected to the snap 20, the inner wall of the snap 20 is fixedly connected to the connecting post 21, and the outer wall of the connecting post 21 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support shell 19.

[0030] Specifically, the outer wall of the support plate 11 is provided with a sliding groove for the outer shell 17 to slide. The support plate 11 provides limiting offset and support for the outer shell 17. The outer walls on both sides of the outer shell 17 are provided with sliding grooves for the sliding plate 18 to slide. The outer shell 17 provides support and limiting offset for the sliding plate 18. The sliding plate 18 has holes inside, which are aligned with the limiting groove 26 for placing the support shell 19. The snap 20 can only move on the upper side of the support shell 19, which provides limiting offset for the snap 20. At the same time, the diameter of the middle part of the support shell 19 can only allow the connecting post 21 to slide.

[0031] Reference Figure 4 A stop 23 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the support shell 19. One end of a spring 22 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the stop 23, and the other end of the spring 22 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the snap 20.

[0032] Specifically, the stop 23 and the snap button 20 support and fix the spring 22. When the snap button 20 is pressed down, the snap button 20 will compress the spring 22. When the snap button 20 is released, the spring 22 will release the elastic force on the snap button 20 and return the snap button 20 to its original position.

[0033] Reference Figure 4 A pressing block 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting column 21. A limiting ball 25 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the pressing block 24. The outer wall of the limiting ball 25 is slidably connected to the inside of the support shell 19. The outer wall of the limiting ball 25 is slidably connected to the inside of the support plate 11. A limiting groove 26 is opened inside the support plate 11. The outer wall of the limiting ball 25 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 26.

[0034] Specifically, the middle part of the limiting groove 26 is wider and is used to place the limiting ball 25. The remaining space of the limiting groove 26 only allows the lower part of the support shell 19 to slide. The lower part of the support shell 19 has a hole with the outer side higher than the inner side. When the pressing block 24 presses the limiting ball 25, the limiting ball 25 will slide outward through the hole and get stuck on the middle inner wall of the limiting groove 26, achieving the function of limiting offset and making the support plate 11 and the outer shell 17 fit tightly. When the pressing block 24 does not press the limiting ball 25, the limiting ball 25 will slide into the interior of the support shell 19 through the hole and fit against the upper outer wall of the pressing block 24.

[0035] Working principle: When the device is needed, the hydraulic cylinder 16 is activated, which drives the limiting plate 14 to move back and forth. When the right limiting plate 14 moves forward, it drives the left limiting plate 14 to slide forward on the inner wall of the support block 13 via the connecting rod 15, fixing and limiting the offset of the left limiting post 12. Then, the motor 3 is activated, which drives the rotating shaft 4 to rotate inside the load-bearing block 5. When the rotating shaft 4 rotates, it drives the first connecting plate 6 to rotate. When the first connecting plate 6 rotates, it drives the second connecting plate 8 upward via the first fixed shaft 7 and rotates on the outer wall of the second fixed shaft 9. When the second connecting plate 8 moves upward, it drives the connecting... Block 10 is moved upwards, thereby causing the right side of the support plate 11 to rotate upwards via the connecting block 10, allowing the support plate 11 to rotate in two directions to adapt to different usage needs. Then, the outer shell 17 is slidably placed on the inner wall of the support plate 11. The sliding plate 18 has holes inside. The sliding plate 18 is slid downwards to fit against the outer walls of both sides of the support plate 11, and the holes of the sliding plate 18 are aligned with the sliding grooves inside the support plate 11. Then, the snap button 20 is pressed downwards. When the snap button 20 moves downwards, it will drive the connecting post 21 to move downwards and compress the spring 22. When the connecting post 21 moves downwards, it will drive the pressing block 24 downwards. The middle part of the pressing block 24 is a flat-topped cone. When the pressing block 24 moves downward, its upper outer wall will no longer press the limiting ball 25. When the pressure on the limiting ball 25 disappears, it will slide into the support shell 19 through the hole opened inside the support shell 19. Then, the support shell 19 will slide into the support plate 11 through the hole of the sliding plate 18. When the lower side of the support shell 19 slides into the inner wall of the limiting groove 26, the snap 20 will be released. At this time, the snap 20 will lose the pressure on the spring 22. Then, the spring 22 will release the elastic force on the snap 20, causing the snap 20 to move upward. When the snap 20 moves upward, it will drive the connecting post 21 upward. The upward movement of the connecting post 21 will drive the pressing block 24 upward. When the pressing block 24 moves upward, the outer wall The limiting ball 25 is squeezed and slides outward through the internal hole of the support shell 19. When the limiting ball 25 slides outward, it gets stuck on the inner wall of the limiting groove 26. The limiting groove 26 limits the displacement of the limiting ball 25, thereby making the shell 17 fit tightly with the support plate 11. This device not only enables the armrest to achieve bidirectional angle adjustment, allowing the armrest to adapt to different sitting postures or work requirements and meet different arm support needs, providing a comfortable user experience, but also allows for quick replacement and installation of the armrest shell 17. Users can replace the armrest shell 17 or the inner core according to different needs, increasing the product's adaptability and maintainability.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing 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. 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.
