[0016] A wheelchair backrest tilting and adjustment limiting structure includes a first backrest seat 1 and a first backrest seat 2. The main technical improvement of this product is that: a protrusion 11 extends forward from the front wall of the first backrest seat 1; the rear wall of the first backrest seat 2 has an axially open elongated opening 21, which is also horizontally arranged and gradually expands radially from the inside to the outside; the protrusion 11 is inserted into the elongated opening 21, and a space is reserved between the protrusion 11 and the upper and lower walls of the elongated opening 21 to allow the first backrest seat 2 to tilt relative to the protrusion 11. The first backrest seat 1 and the second backrest seat 2 have a front-to-back tilting limit space gap 23. This gap 23 is a pre-reserved space between the upper and lower inner walls of the elongated opening 21 and the protrusion 11. The front-to-back tilting angle of the second backrest seat 2 is limited by the height of the gap 23. A movable connection anti-detachment device 4 is provided between the protrusion 11 and the inner bottom wall of the elongated opening 21. The first backrest seat 1 and the first backrest seat 2 are connected by this movable connection anti-detachment device 4, achieving both anti-detachment and movable connection. This product structure allows for the movable connection and anti-detachment of the first and second backrest seats, as well as the front-to-back tilting motion of the second backrest seat relative to the first backrest seat. The protrusion and the elongated opening limit the front-to-back tilting angle of the second backrest seat. The protrusion of the first backrest seat and the wall structure of the elongated opening of the second backrest seat are thick, and the limiting structure is robust and will not burst. This product has a reasonable structure, is easy to assemble, and is flexible in use. The movable connection anti-detachment device 4 is hidden inside the elongated opening 21 and will not pinch or injure the user's hand.
[0017] Preferably, the movable connection anti-detachment device 4 includes an inner protrusion 401, a crossbar 402, a first rod hole 403, a second rod hole 404, and a notch 405. The inner bottom wall of the long opening 21 extends and protrudes to connect the inner protrusion 401. The inner protrusion 401 is arranged horizontally and inserted into the notch 405. The inner protrusion 401 has a first rod hole 403 horizontally. The front end of the protrusion 11 has a second rod hole 404 horizontally. The first rod hole 403 and the second rod hole 404 are horizontally connected. The first rod hole 403 and the second rod hole 404 are connected together to the crossbar 402 for anti-detachment. The crossbar 402 is a screw assembly. The specific connection structure of the movable connection anti-detachment device 4 is hidden inside the long opening 21. This structure has a stable hinged connection, a firm connection, and a simple structure.
[0018] Preferably, the inner bottom wall of the elongated opening 21 extends and protrudes to connect with an inner protrusion 401; there are two protrusions 11, with a notch 405 formed between the two protrusions 11, and the inner protrusion 401 is sandwiched between the two protrusions 11. The width of the notch 405 is approximately the same as the width of the inner protrusion 401; the above structure provides a more stable and tighter connection, without being too loose.
[0019] Preferably, the inner protrusion 401 of the opening is cylindrical; the inner bottom wall of the long opening 21 is arc-shaped; and the front end of the protrusion 11 is arc-shaped. This makes the flipping movement smoother.
[0020] Further: In another structure, the movable connection anti-detachment device 4 includes an anti-detachment arc-shaped long horizontal column 41, an anti-detachment arc-shaped long groove 42, and a narrowing opening 43; the front end of the protrusion 11 extends with the anti-detachment arc-shaped long horizontal column 41; the inner bottom of the long opening 21 is axially provided with an anti-detachment arc-shaped long groove 42; the height of the narrowing opening 43 is less than the diameter of the anti-detachment arc-shaped long horizontal column 41 for anti-detachment connection; the anti-detachment arc-shaped long horizontal column 41 is embedded in the anti-detachment arc-shaped long groove 42, and the two fit perfectly; the end of the protrusion 11 is located at the narrowing opening 43; at least a limiting space gap 23 is reserved between the protrusion 11 and the inner wall of the long opening 21 to allow the second backrest seat to rotate back and forth relative to the first backrest seat; the back and forth rotation angle of the second backrest seat 2 is limited by the limiting space gap 23. The above structure is easy to set up and assemble, has good anti-detachment ability, simple structure, and low cost.
[0021] Furthermore: The protrusion 11 is a horizontal long plate 11A, which mainly increases the connection area and makes it more stable to use; a limiting space gap 23 is formed between the plate surface of the horizontal long plate 11A and the wall surface of the long opening 21, and the upper top surface and lower bottom surface of the horizontal long plate 11A abut against the upper top wall and lower bottom wall of the corresponding long opening 21 to form a pulling limit, which limits the front and rear flipping angle of the second backrest 2.
[0022] When the second backrest seat 2 is flipped backward relative to the first backrest seat 1, the upper top wall of the long opening 21 and the upper top surface of the horizontal plate 11A press against each other to limit the backward flipping angle of the second backrest seat 2; when the second backrest seat 2 is flipped forward relative to the first backrest seat 1, the lower bottom wall of the long opening 21 and the lower bottom surface of the horizontal plate 11A press against each other to limit the forward turning angle of the second backrest seat 2. Thus, the forward and backward flipping angle of the second backrest seat 2 can be adjusted and the flipping angle can be limited. The above structure increases the contact area between the second backrest seat 2 and the first backrest seat 1, improves the stability of the movable connection, ensures stable flipping, provides good limiting effect, is not easily damaged, and has a robust structure.
[0023] Further: The front and rear flip angle is between 0 degrees and 45 degrees, and the second backrest 2 can rotate relative to the first backrest 1 between 0 degrees and 45 degrees; a suitable flip angle range for the second backrest 2 is set; preferably: the front and rear flip angle is between 0 degrees and 30 degrees, which is suitable for most uses and has better stability.
[0024] Furthermore: the space of the long opening 21 is trapezoidal; the horizontal plate 11A is trapezoidal, with a suitable shape and a solid structure.
[0025] Furthermore: The first backrest seat 1 has a vertical through hole 13 for threading and mounting the backrest rod 14 of the wheelchair; the first backrest seat 1 is integrally injection molded, which is easy and efficient to produce; the front wall of the second backrest seat 2 has a mounting flat surface 24 for connecting with the back of the wheelchair backrest pad frame 15 and for easy screw tightening, increasing the connection area; the second backrest seat 2 is integrally injection molded, which is easy and efficient to produce.
[0026] Furthermore, an elastic reset device 3 connects the first backrest seat 1 and the second backrest seat 2. The second backrest seat 2 automatically resets relative to the first backrest seat 1 via the elastic reset device 3. When the person is not leaning against the wheelchair backrest cushion frame 15, the elastic reset device 3 always returns the second backrest seat 2 and the wheelchair backrest cushion frame 15 to their initial state, resulting in a neat and aesthetically pleasing appearance. The wheelchair backrest cushion frame 15 is used to install the backrest cushion.
[0027] Furthermore: The elastic reset device 3 is a pressure spring 3A. The pressure spring 3A is pressed and connected between the first backrest 1 and the second backrest 2. One end of the pressure spring 3A is fixedly connected to the rear wall of the second backrest 2 with a screw, and the other end is fixedly connected to the front wall of the first backrest 1 with a screw. Choosing a suitable elastic reset structure results in low cost and good reset effect.
[0028] Preferably, a spring hole 101 is provided at the bottom of the front wall of the first backrest seat 1, and a spring hole 201 is provided at the bottom of the rear wall of the second backrest seat 2.
