[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] Example 1:

[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 An ergonomic sofa lumbar support device includes a main body 1, an adjustment mechanism, and a contact mechanism. The adjustment mechanism includes a motor 2 and a lead screw 3. The motor 2 is fixedly installed inside the main body 1. One end of the lead screw 3 is fixedly installed on the motor 2 and rotatably connected to the main body 1. A lifting frame 4 is installed on the lead screw 3. A first roller 5 is installed on the lifting frame 4. The lifting frame 4 slides inside the main body 1. The first roller 5 is installed in the lifting frame 4 and is rotatably connected to the lifting frame 4 and slidably connected to the main body 1. The contact mechanism includes a contact element 6 and a spring 7. One end of the spring 7 is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 4. The contact element 6 is installed in the lifting frame 4 and slidably connected to the lifting frame 4. A second roller 8 is installed on the contact element 6.

[0030] In this embodiment, the adjustment mechanism includes a motor 2 and a lead screw 3. In use, the motor 2 drives the lead screw 3 to rotate, so that the lifting frame 4 can slide in the first slide groove 12 of the main body 1 under the action of the threaded hole 11 and the threaded engagement of the lead screw 3. The first roller 5 slides in the second slide groove 13, and the first limiting block 15 on the lifting frame 4 slides in the first limiting groove 14 of the main body 1, thus completing the stable sliding of the lifting frame 4 and facilitating the position adjustment of the lifting frame 4.

[0031] In this embodiment, the contact mechanism includes a contact element 6 and a spring 7. During use, when the human body leans against the contact element 6, it applies pressure to the contact element 6. At this time, the contact element 6 slides in the second limiting block 17 and the second limiting groove 18, and squeezes the spring 7. It is also slidably connected to the through rod 16. Moreover, the shock-absorbing block 19 on the contact element 6 is also connected to the lifting frame 4 to reduce the reaction force when the human body leans against it. When the contact element 6 slides on the main body 1, the second roller 8 slides in the sofa to facilitate the sliding of the contact element 6. The main body 1 is directly covered with a sofa cover, and the seat cushion 9 on the sofa can be replaced. When replacing the back cushion 10, the back cushion 10 can be taken out in the fitting groove 20.

[0032] Example 2:

[0033] In summary, during use, firstly, the motor 2 directly drives the lead screw 3 to rotate, causing the lifting frame 4 to slide in the first slide groove 12 of the main body 1 under the action of the threaded engagement between the threaded hole 11 and the lead screw 3. The first roller 5 slides in the second slide groove 13, while the first limiting block 15 on the lifting frame 4 slides in the first limiting groove 14 of the main body 1, completing the stable sliding of the lifting frame 4 and facilitating position adjustment. When a person approaches the contact piece 6, the person applies pressure to the contact piece 6, and the contact piece 6 then moves to the second limiting groove 14. Block 17 slides in the second limiting groove 18 and compresses the spring 7, while also slidingly connecting with the through rod 16. The shock-absorbing block 19 on the contact member 6 is also connected to the lifting frame 4 to reduce the reaction force when the human body leans against it. When the contact member 6 slides on the main body 1, the second roller 8 slides in the sofa to facilitate the sliding of the contact member 6. The main body 1 is directly covered with a sofa cover, and the seat cushion 9 on the sofa can be replaced. When replacing the back cushion 10, the back cushion 10 can be taken out in the fitting groove 20.

[0034] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
