Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of public transportation technology, and in particular relates to a multifunctional bus seat back. Background Technology
[0002] The bus seat backrest is a core component for ensuring passenger safety and enhancing comfort. Its design and function revolve around three core objectives: "safety protection," "sitting support," and "humanized adaptation." These are the most basic and crucial functions of the seat backrest. In scenarios where buses frequently start and stop, and may experience sudden bumps or emergency braking, the seat backrest reduces the probability of passenger injury. The bus seat backrest is not just a "simple backrest," but a core component that integrates ergonomic support, humanized adaptation, and space optimization. Its design directly affects passenger safety, comfort, and experience, and is also an important manifestation of the "people-oriented" concept in public transportation vehicle design.
[0003] Currently, most bus seat backrests are designed to only support front-seat passengers and are isolated from rear-seat passengers, lacking practicality. Commuters often bring takeout meals on the bus to save time. While drinks are typically served in round disposable paper or plastic cups, the small trays on buses can hold them. However, the frequent stops and starts of buses cause drinks to tip over due to inertia, spilling the contents of the disposable paper or plastic cups. Therefore, we propose a multifunctional bus seat backrest. Utility Model Content

[0025] Example 1: This example provides a multi-functional bus seat backrest, including: a bracket 1, a backrest body 2, and a tray 3. The backrest body 2 is fixedly installed inside the bracket 1. A support 4 is fixedly installed on the back of the backrest body 2. The tray 3 is hinged to the inner wall of the support 4. A support arm 5 is hinged to the bottom of the tray 3. A positioning mechanism 6 is provided below the support arm 5. The support 4 provides support for the tray 3, enabling the tray 3 to have a flipping function. When not in use, the tray 3 can be flipped downwards to prevent obstruction of passengers getting on and off the bus.
[0026] The inner side of the tray 3 has a through hole 7. Two sets of ear seats 8 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the tray 3, and the two sets of ear seats 8 are symmetrical. The inner wall of the ear seat 8 is fixedly connected to a slide rod 9. The outer surface of the slide rod 9 is slidably connected to two clamping blocks 10, and the two clamping blocks 10 are symmetrical. The clamping blocks 10 are located above the through hole 7. The inner wall of each clamping block 10 has a slot 11. The outer side of the slide rod 9 is sleeved with two sets of first springs 12, and the two sets of first springs 12 are symmetrical. The outer surface of the ear seat 8 is hinged to a swing arm 13. One end of the swing arm 13 is hinged to one side of one of the clamping blocks 606, and the other end of the swing arm 13 is hinged to one side of the other clamping block 606. The outer surface of each clamping block 10 is fixedly connected to a pull ring 14.
[0027] The through hole 7 is used to accommodate the bottom of the paper cup or plastic cup. The ear seat 8 and the slide rod 9 provide support for the clamp 10 to maintain the stability of the clamp 10. The swing arm 13 causes one clamp 10 to drive the other clamp 10 in a linkage when it moves. The pull ring 14 facilitates the movement of the clamp 10. After the clamp 10 moves, the slot 11 expands to accommodate paper cups or plastic cups with a larger diameter.
[0028] Example 2: This example provides a multi-functional bus seat backrest. In addition to the technical solutions of the above examples, it also has the following technical features: one end of each of the multiple sets of first springs 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the clamping block 10, and the other end of each of the multiple sets of first springs 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the ear seat 8.
[0029] The first spring 12 provides elastic support to the clamping block 606, pushing the two clamping blocks 10 to converge towards the middle.
[0030] Example 3: This example provides a multi-functional bus seat backrest. In addition to the technical solutions of the above examples, it also has the following technical features: the inner wall of the bracket 1 is hinged to the support frame 15, and the inner wall of the support frame 15 is fixedly connected to the pull rod 16.
[0031] The support frame 15 provides support for the pull rod 16, maintaining its stability. The support frame 15 also creates a distance between the pull rod 16 and the bracket 1. For elderly people or people with mobility issues who have difficulty getting up, the pull rod 16 provides leverage to help them get up. The distance between the support frame 15 and the bracket 1 also prevents the pull rod from touching passengers in front of it when grabbing it.
[0032] Example 4: This example provides a multi-functional bus seat backrest. In addition to the technical solutions of the above examples, it also has the following technical features: the positioning mechanism 6 includes a slide rail 601, which is fixedly installed on the back of the backrest body 2. A slider 602 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide rail 601. The inner wall of the slider 602 is hinged to the end of the support arm 5 away from the tray 3.
[0033] The positioning mechanism 6 maintains the stability of the support arm 5, and the slide rail 601 provides support and guidance for the slider 602, thus maintaining the stability of the slider 602.
[0034] Example 5: This example provides a multi-functional bus seat backrest. In addition to the technical solutions of the above examples, it also has the following technical features: a through groove 603 is provided on the inner side of the slider 602; a support seat 604 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the slider 602; a claw 605 is hinged to the inner wall of the support seat 604; the claw 605 is located inside the through groove 603; a second spring 607 is fixedly connected to one side of the claw 605 inside the through groove 603; and the other end of the second spring 607 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through groove 603.
[0035] The through groove 603 provides a space for the chuck 605 to be accommodated, and at the same time allows the chuck 605 to have space to move. The chuck 605 provides resistance to the slider 602 to maintain the stability of the slider 602. The second spring 607 provides an elastic pushing force to the chuck 605, so that the second chuck 605 always keeps in contact with the chuck block 606 when there is no external interference.
[0036] Example 6: This example provides a multi-functional bus seat backrest. In addition to the technical solutions of the above examples, it also has the following technical features: multiple locking blocks 606 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide 601, and the multiple locking blocks 606 are arranged in an equidistant array. The claw 605 is in contact with one of the locking blocks 606.
[0037] Specifically, the locking block 606 provides resistance to the chuck 605, limiting the movement of the chuck 605. The chuck 605 then transmits the resistance to the slider 602, maintaining the stability of the support arm 5.
[0038] Example 7: This example provides a multi-functional bus seat backrest, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above examples, also has the following technical features: each group of ear seats 8 has three ear seats 8, and the three ear seats 8 are arranged at equal distances; each group of first springs 12 has two first springs 12, and the two first springs 12 are symmetrical.
[0039] Two lugs 8 provide support at both ends of the slide bar 9 to maintain its stability. The middle position of the slide bar 9 of one lug 8 is used to separate the two clamping blocks 10 and provide support for the swing arm 13. Two first springs 12 are located outside the two clamping blocks 10.
[0040] Working principle: First, after the passenger sits down, the pusher tray is moved upwards. Simultaneously, the support arm 5 moves the slider 602 to a horizontal position. Once the tray 3 reaches a horizontal position, the pawl 605 contacts the locking block 606, restricting the movement of the support arm 5 and maintaining the stability of the tray 3. When the tray 3 needs to be lowered, pressing the end of the pawl 605 away from the locking block 606 disengages the other end of the pawl, releasing the positioning restriction on the slider 602. This allows the slider 602 to move downwards along the slide rail 601, while the support arm 5 and the tray 3 move downwards simultaneously. The tray 3 is then placed back to its original perpendicular position to the back panel. After the tray 3 is in a horizontal position, a paper cup or plastic cup is placed inside the slot 11. The bottom of the paper cup or plastic cup passes through the through hole 7 and is located below the tray 3. If the paper cup or plastic cup has a large diameter, the pull ring 14 moves the locking block 606. While the locking block 606 moves, the first spring 12 is compressed. The compressed first spring 12 provides elastic pushing force to the clamping block 10, which tightly restricts the paper cup or plastic cup to the inner wall of the slot 11. After the clamping block 10 moves, the distance between the slots 11 increases, which can accommodate paper cups or plastic cups with a larger diameter.
