[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments described are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0023] In this utility model, when directions (up, down, left, right, front, and back) are described, it is only for the convenience of describing the technical solution of this utility model, and does not indicate or imply that the technical features referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0024] In this utility model, "several" means one or more, "multiple" means two or more, "greater than," "less than," "exceeding," etc. are understood to exclude the stated number; "above," "below," "within," etc. are understood to include the stated number. In the description of this utility model, if "first" or "second" is used, it is only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of indicated technical features or the order of the indicated technical features.

[0025] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "set," "install," and "connect" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integrally formed connection; a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a connection capable of mutual communication; or the internal connection of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this utility model discloses a four-link linkage sinking mechanism for an electrically adjustable car seat backrest cushion, comprising: The lower frame of the seat cushion assembly 1 has a first lower frame bone connecting part 11 and a second lower frame bone connecting part 12 on opposite sides. Backrest frame assembly 2, on the same side of the backrest frame assembly 2, is provided a first backrest connecting part 21 and a second backrest connecting part 22; the first backrest connecting part 21 is rotatably connected to the first lower frame bone connecting part 11. The upper frame of the seat cushion assembly 3 has a first upper frame bone connecting part 31 and a second upper frame bone connecting part 32 on opposite sides; the first upper frame bone connecting part 31 is rotatably connected to the second backrest connecting part 22. The front connecting bracket assembly 4 has a first front bracket connecting part 41 and a second front bracket connecting part 42 on opposite sides; the first front bracket connecting part 41 is rotatably connected to the second upper frame bone connecting part 32, and the second front bracket connecting part 42 is rotatably connected to the second lower frame bone connecting part 12.

[0027] In one embodiment, an angle adjuster 5 is provided between the first backrest connecting part 21 and the first lower frame connecting part 11. The (electric) angle adjuster 5 is a mechanical transmission device installed at the connection between the seat back and the seat cushion, which is used to adjust the backrest angle and works in conjunction with the drive motor. By using the angle adjuster 5 for adjustment, the forward tilting and reclining process of the seat is controlled and smooth, and a reliable linkage effect can be achieved.

[0028] It should be noted that the electric tilt-forward mechanism adopts a 5-type angle adjuster structure, which makes the frame adjustment more stable. The welding process used for each frame component is simple and highly consistent, which is conducive to mass production and quality control, and reduces manufacturing costs.

[0029] In one embodiment, a first pivot 23 is connected between the first upper frame bone connecting part 31 and the second backrest connecting part 22.

[0030] In one embodiment, the two first pivots 23 are located at opposite ends of the backrest frame assembly 2.

[0031] In one embodiment, support arms 33 are provided at both ends of the upper frame assembly 3 of the seat cushion, and a curved portion 331 is provided at one end of the support arm 33 near the backrest frame assembly 2, and the first upper frame bone connecting portion 31 is provided at the curved portion 331.

[0032] In one embodiment, the front connecting bracket assembly 4 includes two connecting arms 43 located on both sides of the front of the upper frame assembly 3 of the seat cushion, and each connecting arm 43 is provided with a first front bracket connecting part 41 and a second front bracket connecting part 42 at both ends.

[0033] In one embodiment, a second pivot 44 is provided between the first front support connecting portion 41 and the second upper frame bone connecting portion 32, and between the second front support connecting portion 42 and the second lower frame bone connecting portion 12.

[0034] In one embodiment, the lower seat frame assembly 1 is provided with a connecting plate 13 for threaded connection with the vehicle body.

[0035] In operation, this invention forms a stable four-bar linkage by establishing a four-point rotary connection between the backrest frame assembly 2, the upper seat frame assembly 3, the lower seat frame assembly 1, and the front connecting bracket assembly 4. When the electric drive device actuates the angle adjuster 5, the first backrest connecting part 21 rotates relative to the first lower frame connecting part 11, thereby driving the backrest frame assembly 2 to adjust its angle. During this process, the first upper frame connecting part 31 rotates with the second backrest connecting part 22 via a pivot, causing the upper seat frame assembly 3 to move synchronously.

[0036] Meanwhile, the movement of the upper frame frame assembly 3 is further transmitted to the front connecting bracket assembly 4 through the rotational relationship between the first front support connecting part 41 and the second upper frame bone connecting part 32, and the rotational relationship between the second front support connecting part 42 and the second lower frame bone connecting part 12, so that the four frame assemblies form a coupling of force and displacement, and the upper frame frame assembly 3 of the seat cushion sinks in linkage with the backrest frame assembly 2 as it flips.

[0037] When the backrest is electrically adjusted and reclined, the four-link structure ensures that the front of the seat cushion flips down and sinks, thus creating a continuous plane between the rear seats and the trunk, meeting the needs of "double bed mode" and expanding storage space.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to examples, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
