Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of vehicle seat technology, and in particular relates to a vehicle seat that assists the elderly to change from a sitting to a standing position. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, the number of elderly people is also increasing, leading to a rise in assistive devices developed specifically for them. Recently, chairs with features that help the elderly stand have become very popular in the home seating industry. With elderly people traveling more frequently, there is also a growing demand for convenient and practical features that can be provided within the limited space of a car.

[0003] During our ride, we noticed that due to safety requirements to prevent passengers from falling into the seats, passengers were basically stuck in the seats. After a while, it became very inconvenient for elderly people to get up and get off the bus. They needed to be helped or even pulled by others. The cramped space caused great inconvenience to passengers and even posed a risk of shoulder dislocation or fracture for the elderly. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a vehicle seat that can assist the elderly in changing from a sitting to a standing position.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the following problem:

[0006] A vehicle seat assisting the elderly in changing from a sitting to a standing position includes two parallel slide rails, a seat sliding bracket slidably mounted on the two slide rails, and a seat frame on the upper part of the seat sliding bracket. The seat frame includes a front horizontal tube, a rear horizontal tube, and left and right side plates connected to the two ends of the front and rear horizontal tubes. The front parts of the left and right side plates are respectively hinged to the upper end of a front connecting rod, and the lower ends of the two front connecting rods are respectively hinged to the upper front part of the seat sliding bracket. The rear parts of the two seat sliding brackets are respectively hinged to one end of an auxiliary standing connecting rod, and the other end of the auxiliary standing connecting rod is hinged to one end of an upper connecting rod. The other end of the upper connecting rod is respectively hinged to both sides of the rear horizontal tube. A lead screw motor is hinged to a motor fixing tube connected to the middle of the two seat sliding brackets. A screw sleeve screwed onto the lead screw motor is hinged to the upper part of the auxiliary standing connecting rod. The lead screw motor drives the rotation of the lead screw, which drives the screw sleeve to move up and down, thereby driving the lifting and lowering of the rear part of the seat frame through the auxiliary standing connecting rod and the upper connecting rod.

[0007] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the upper end of the front connecting rod is tilted backward, the front connecting rod and the upper connecting rod are arranged parallel to each other, the upper end of the auxiliary lifting connecting rod is tilted forward and forms a V-shaped structure with the upper connecting rod, and the opening of the V-shaped structure is arranged facing backward.

[0008] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the screw sleeve is hinged to the upper part of the auxiliary lifting link on the lower side of the hinge axis between the auxiliary lifting link and the upper link via a screw sleeve mounting seat.

[0009] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, a motor mounting base is welded onto the motor fixing tube, and the mounting lug of the lead screw motor is hinged to the motor mounting base.

[0010] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the upper part of the auxiliary lifting link is provided with a forward-extending threaded sleeve mounting lug, and the threaded sleeve is hinged to the threaded sleeve mounting lug on the auxiliary lifting link through a threaded sleeve mounting seat.

[0011] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the auxiliary lifting link and the upper link are hinged together by riveting.

[0012] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the potty sliding bracket is welded to the motor fixing tube.

[0013] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the vehicle seat is equipped with a control button that is electrically connected to the lead screw motor. Pressing the control button can control the lifting and lowering of the rear of the seat frame through the lead screw motor.

[0014] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, the vehicle seat is equipped with a vehicle speed sensor and / or displacement sensor and controller. When the vehicle is in motion, the controller receives the sensing signal transmitted by the vehicle speed sensor or displacement sensor and controls the disconnection of the power supply circuit of the lead screw motor.

[0015] As a further optimization of the above technical solution, a seat support net is hung on the front and rear horizontal tubes of the sitz bath frame. The seat support net is formed by interlacing and connecting longitudinal elastic rods arranged at horizontal intervals and transverse connecting pieces arranged at vertical intervals. The two ends of the elastic rods are respectively hung on the front and rear horizontal tubes.

[0016] The advantages of this invention compared to the prior art are:

[0017] 1. This utility model uses a lead screw motor to lift the rear of the seat frame, thereby tilting it forward to assist the elderly in standing. Because the lead screw of the lead screw motor is relatively long, the movement distance of the screw sleeve on the lead screw is also relatively long. This allows the rear of the seat frame to be lifted to a greater height through the transmission linkage, making it very convenient to assist the elderly in standing.

[0018] 2. This utility model uses a lead screw motor to drive the movement of the screw sleeve. When the lead screw motor is not moving, the screw sleeve will be locked at a certain position on the lead screw. In this way, the seat frame can be locked at any high position to facilitate the elderly to get up from the seat.

[0019] 3. This utility model utilizes the existing shock absorption structure of the seat, only adding a lead screw motor and a screw sleeve structure. The structure is simple, the production cost is low, and it is easy to promote and apply. Attached Figure Description
