Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric vehicle seat adjustment and control technology, and in particular to a seat slide control mechanism and an electric vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing popularity of electric vehicles and the growing demand for comfort, seat adjustment has become a common feature in electric vehicles. Traditional electric vehicle seat sliding control structures mainly adopt a mechanical design, using a round steel bar installed on a slide rail under the seat as a control mechanism. The locking and unlocking functions of the slide rail are achieved by rotating the round steel bar.
[0003] However, because the control lever must protrude beyond the seat structure, it not only affects the overall aesthetics of the vehicle but also easily interferes with the user's movements during entry and exit, causing considerable inconvenience. While this traditional structure can basically meet the functional requirements of seat adjustment, it has significant shortcomings in terms of user experience and can no longer meet the high standards of comfort and convenience required by modern electric vehicles. Utility Model Content

[0022] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0023] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the seat slide 10 control mechanism provided in this embodiment has a compact overall structure and is easy to operate, making it suitable for seat adjustment devices in vehicles such as electric vehicles. The seat slide 10 control mechanism includes a control component 100, a transmission component 200, and a locking component 300, thereby realizing the locking and unlocking functions of the seat slide 10.
[0024] The control component 100 is installed on the outer wall of the vehicle handrail 20 and can rotate relative to the handrail. When the user manually moves the control component 100, the rotational motion of the control component 100 is transmitted to the locking component 300 through the transmission component 200, driving the locking component 300 to switch between the locked state and the unlocked state.
[0025] The seat slide 10 includes a fixed track 11 and a sliding track 12; the sliding track 12 is slidably connected to the fixed track 11, and the seat body is connected to the sliding track 12. In the locked state, the locking member 300 forms an effective engagement with the sliding track 12 in the seat slide 10, restricting the sliding of the sliding track 12 relative to the fixed track 11; while in the unlocked state, the engagement is released, and the sliding track 12 can move freely on the fixed track 11, thereby realizing the adjustment of the seat position.
[0026] Regarding the structure of the control component 100, specifically: The control component 100 includes a rotating buckle plate 110 and a connecting part 120; the rotating buckle plate 110 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the vehicle handrail 20 through a rotating shaft or hinge structure, so that the rotating buckle plate 110 can rotate around the rotating shaft within a certain angle range.
[0027] The rotating buckle plate 110 has a connecting part 120 on the side facing the inside of the handrail. This connecting part 120 serves as a power output point and is used to connect to one end of the transmission component 200. The connecting part 120 can be designed as a protruding post or a hook to facilitate reliable connection with the subsequent transmission component 200 and ensure effective transmission of operating force.
[0028] The transmission component 200 adopts a cable structure, including a cable body 210, a first cable bracket 220, and a second cable bracket 230. The cable body 210 is the transmission element, comprising an outer tube and a cable thread passing through the outer tube. One end of the cable thread is fixedly connected to the connecting part 120 on the control component 100, and the other end of the cable thread extends to and connects to the locking component 300. The outer tube is supported and positioned by the first cable bracket 220 and the second cable bracket 230. The first cable bracket 220 is installed on the side of the frame seat 30 near the control component 100 to stabilize the initial section of the cable body 210 and reduce force transmission loss caused by bending. The second cable bracket 230 is located near the locking component 300 to support the end section of the cable body 210, ensuring that the cable thread can smoothly pull the locking component 300 during the pulling process.
[0029] It should be noted that the locking part 310 of the locking member 300 has an opening. The end of the cable passes through the opening on the locking part 310 and is connected to the buckle. The outer diameter of the buckle is larger than the size of the opening, thereby fixing the end of the cable to the locking part 310.
[0030] A locking member 300 is disposed near the seat slide rail 10. The locking member 300 includes a locking part 310 and a fixing part 320. The fixing part 320 serves as the mounting base for the entire locking member 300 and is fixed to the vehicle chassis or seat bracket by screws or other fastening methods. The locking part 310 is rotatably connected to the fixing part 320 via a rotating shaft 321, allowing the locking part 310 to swing around the rotating shaft 321, thereby realizing the conversion between locking and unlocking actions. The rotating shaft 321 passes through a mounting hole on the locking part 310 to ensure smooth rotation of the locking part 310.
[0031] The locking part 310 has a locking protrusion 311 on the side facing the sliding rail 12. When locked, the locking protrusion 311 can be inserted into a preset engagement slot on the sliding rail 12 to form a mechanical limit and prevent the seat from sliding. Since the sliding rail 12 has multiple spaced engagement slots along its length, the seat can be locked in multiple predetermined positions to meet the usage needs of drivers and passengers of different body types.
[0032] To achieve automatic reset and reliable locking, the locking member 300 is also equipped with a rotating elastic element 330, preferably a torsion spring. The rotating elastic element 330 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 321, with one end of the rotating elastic element 330 abutting against the fixed part 320 and the other end of the rotating elastic element 330 abutting against the locking part 310, applying a continuous elastic restoring force.
[0033] Without external force, the rotating elastic element 330 causes the locking part 310 to always maintain a tendency to rotate towards the sliding track 12, so that the locking protrusion 311 naturally embeds into the nearest snap-fit groove, realizing the "default locking" function.
[0034] When the user operates the control component 100, the control component 100 pulls the cable to pull the locking part 310, overcoming the spring force and causing it to rotate in the opposite direction around the rotating shaft 321, thus causing the locking protrusion 311 to disengage from the locking groove and enter the unlocked state. Once the operation is completed, the control component 100 is released, and the locking part 310 quickly returns to its original position under the action of the spring, ready for the next locking action.
[0035] In summary, the seat slide 10 control mechanism integrates the operating components into the outer wall of the armrest, replacing the traditional manual levers that protrude under or to the side of the seat. This not only enhances the aesthetics of the interior but also significantly improves the human-computer interaction experience. Users can adjust the seat without bending over or reaching out, making it especially suitable for scenarios where seat positions are frequently changed.
[0036] Meanwhile, the connection between the components is clear, the force transmission path is well-defined, the structure is stable and reliable, and it has good durability and anti-interference ability. It can adapt to the vibration and impact environment during vehicle operation. Combined with the sliding rail 12 with multi-slot design, it further enhances the flexibility and positioning accuracy of seat adjustment, effectively solving the problem of inconvenience caused by exposed control rods in the existing technology.
[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
