[0029] Reference manual attached Figures 1 to 5 The present invention provides a structure for an air-cushioned car seat suspension, comprising a bracket assembly 1, wherein a damping assembly 2 is provided inside the bracket assembly 1;

[0030] The damping assembly 2 includes a first link 21, which has a "Y" shaped structure;

[0031] The first connecting rod 21 has a first hinge groove 24 at one end and two second hinge grooves 26 at the other end.

[0032] The first hinge slot 24 is hinged to the second connecting rod 22;

[0033] The bottom of the first hinge groove 24 is provided with a fourth hinge lug 25, and a damping rod 23 is hinged to the fourth hinge lug 25.

[0034] The beneficial effects of the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present invention include at least the following:

[0035] In this embodiment of the invention, the first connecting rod 21 has a "Y"-shaped structure, which facilitates the fork at one end of the first connecting rod 21 to be hinged to the third hinge ears 17 on both sides of the bottom of the air spring 19, thus avoiding the air spring 19. The first hinge groove 24 facilitates the hinge of the first connecting rod 21 to the second connecting rod 22. The second hinge groove 26 facilitates the hinge of the first connecting rod 21 to the mounting plate 14 located inside the bottom frame 12.

The damping rod 23 allows one end of it to be hinged to the bottom end of the elbow structure formed by the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22. This makes the distance the top frame 11 moves toward the bottom frame 12 less than the compression distance of the damping rod 23, thus amplifying the compression stroke of the damping rod 23. This allows the damping rod 23 to absorb more energy during vibration, reducing the impact transmission of the seat to the passenger. It can also effectively absorb high-frequency micro-vibrations generated during vehicle operation, improving the user's riding comfort. The damping rod 23 is a CDC damper, which allows the vehicle's control system to adjust the damping force of the damping rod 23 according to road conditions during driving, improving driving comfort.

[0036] In one possible implementation, the support assembly 1 includes a top frame 11 and a bottom frame 12, with a scissor frame 13 provided between the two sides of the top frame 11 and the bottom frame 12.

[0037] In this embodiment of the invention, the scissor frame 13 facilitates the limiting and guiding of the relative movement between the top frame 11 and the bottom frame 12, so that the top frame 11 and the bottom frame 12 can be combined to form a stable frame structure, which facilitates the stable up and down movement of the top frame 11.

[0038] In one possible implementation, mounting plates 14 are fixedly installed on the inner center of both the top frame 11 and the bottom frame 12, and an air spring 19 is fixedly installed between the two mounting plates 14.

[0039] In this embodiment of the invention, the air spring 19 facilitates the provision of adjustable elastic support to adapt to different loads and isolate high-frequency vibrations.

[0040] In one possible implementation, two third hinge ears 17 are fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting plate 14 located inside the bottom frame 12, and the third hinge ears 17 are hinged to the second hinge slot 26.

[0041] In this embodiment of the invention, the third hinge lug 17 facilitates the hinge connection between the first connecting rod 21 and the mounting plate 14 inside the bottom frame 12, and allows the first connecting rod 21 to avoid the air spring 19.

[0042] In one possible implementation, a first hinge lug 15 is fixedly installed on one end of the inner side of the bottom frame 12, and the first hinge lug 15 is hinged to the end of the damping rod 23 away from the first connecting rod 21.

[0043] In this embodiment of the invention, the first hinge ear 15 facilitates the hinge connection between one end of the damping rod 23 and the inner side of one end of the bottom frame 12, thereby fixing one end of the damping rod 23 and enabling the damping rod 23 to output damping force to absorb vibration.

[0044] In one possible implementation, a second hinge lug 16 is fixedly installed on one end of the inner side of the top frame 11, and the second hinge lug 16 is hinged to the end of the second connecting rod 22 away from the first connecting rod 21.

[0045] In this embodiment of the invention, the second hinge ear 16 facilitates the hinge connection between the second connecting rod 22 and one end of the inner side of the top frame 11, thereby facilitating the transmission of the damping force output by the damping rod 23.

[0046] In one possible implementation, mounting ears 18 are fixedly installed on the outer sides of both ends of the top frame 11 and the bottom frame 12.

[0047] In this embodiment of the invention, the mounting ears 18 facilitate the fixed connection of the mounting ears 18 on the outer sides of both ends of the top frame 11 and the bottom frame 12 with the car seat and the car floor respectively, so that the device can fix the car seat to the car floor and provide shock absorption and cushioning for the car seat.

[0048] Specifically, the working principle of this air-cushioned car seat suspension is as follows: During use, the mounting ears 18 facilitate the fixed connection of the outer ends of the top frame 11 and bottom frame 12 to the car seat and the car floor, respectively. This allows the device to secure the car seat to the car floor and provide shock absorption. The scissor frame 13 limits and guides the relative movement between the top frame 11 and bottom frame 12, enabling the top frame 11 and bottom frame 12 to form a stable frame structure, facilitating stable up-and-down movement of the top frame 11. The air spring 19 provides adjustable elasticity. The system provides support, adapts to different loads, and isolates high-frequency vibrations. The third hinge ear 17 facilitates the hinge connection of the first connecting rod 21 to the mounting plate 14 inside the bottom frame 12, ensuring the first connecting rod 21 avoids the air spring 19. The first hinge ear 15 facilitates the hinge connection of one end of the damping rod 23 to the inner side of one end of the bottom frame 12, fixing one end of the damping rod 23 and allowing it to output damping force to absorb vibrations. The second hinge ear 16 facilitates the hinge connection of the second connecting rod 22 to one inner end of the top frame 11, enabling the transmission of the damping force output by the damping rod 23. The first connecting rod 21 has a "Y"-shaped structure, with a fork at one end for easy hinge connection to the third hinge lugs 17 on both sides of the bottom of the air spring 19, thus avoiding the air spring 19. The first hinge slot 24 facilitates the hinge connection between the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22. The second hinge slot 26 facilitates the hinge connection between the first connecting rod 21 and the mounting plate 14 located inside the bottom frame 12. The second connecting rod 22 is hinged to the first connecting rod 21 through the first hinge slot 24, forming an elbow structure. The damping rod 23 is hinged to the fourth hinge lug 25. This design allows one end of the damping rod 23 to be hinged to the bottom end of the elbow structure formed by the first connecting rod 21 and the second connecting rod 22. This makes the distance the top frame 11 moves toward the bottom frame 12 less than the compression distance of the damping rod 23, thus amplifying the compression stroke of the damping rod 23. This enables the damping rod 23 to absorb more energy during vibration, reducing the impact transmission of the seat to the passenger. It can also effectively absorb high-frequency micro-vibrations generated during vehicle operation, improving the user's riding comfort. The damping rod 23 is a CDC damper, which allows the vehicle's control system to adjust the damping force of the damping rod 23 according to road conditions during driving, thereby improving driving comfort.
