[0050] Various exemplary embodiments of the present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement, numerical expressions, and values ​​of the components and steps set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present application.

[0051] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the scope of this application and its application or use.

[0052] Techniques, methods, and equipment known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and equipment should be considered part of the specification.

[0053] In all the examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0054] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be discussed further in subsequent figures.

[0055] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects solved by this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0056] One embodiment of this application provides a seat 100, including a backrest 2 and a headrest 1. Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of the seat 100 when the headrest 1 is adjusted to the highest position, and Figure 2 is a structural schematic diagram of the seat 100 when the headrest 1 is adjusted to the lowest position.

[0057] As shown in Figures 2, 3, and 4, the backrest 2 includes a backrest body 20 and a linear motion mechanism 3 installed within the backrest body 20. The headrest 1 includes a headrest rod 12. The backrest 2 has a travel hole 26 extending along the height direction of the seat 100. The headrest rod 12 extends along the front-back direction of the seat 100, and one end of the headrest rod 12 passes through the travel hole 26 and is connected to the linear motion mechanism 3. The "front" orientation refers to the side of the backrest 2 that the human body leans against.

[0058] The linear motion mechanism 3 can drive the headrest rod 12 to move along the height direction of the seat 100, thereby adjusting the height of the headrest 1 to meet the head and neck support needs of people of different body types or postures, and improve the comfort of head and neck support. In addition, the height adjustment of the headrest 1 can be controlled by physical buttons on the side panel of the seat 100 and virtual buttons on the central control screen.

[0059] Compared to the headrest rod 12 of the related technology which extends along the height direction of the seat 100, the headrest rod 12 of this application extends along the front-back direction of the seat 100. The headrest rod 12 does not overlap with the backrest 2 in the height direction of the seat 100. The height adjustment range of the headrest 1 is not affected by the interference between the headrest rod 12 and the backrest 2, so as to increase the downward adjustment range of the headrest 1 and realize the large range height adjustment of the headrest 1, so as to meet the height requirements of the headrest 1 in the zero-gravity posture (i.e., the reclining posture) of the zero-gravity seat 100.

[0060] It should be noted that when it is said that the headrest rod 12 extends along the front-back direction of the seat 100, it refers to the overall extension direction of the headrest rod 12, and does not limit the headrest rod 12 to a straight rod. The middle part of the headrest rod 12 can be a curved end with a small arc or a bent section with a small angle.

[0061] In the seat 100 of this application, one end of the headrest rod 12 extending along the front-back direction of the seat 100 passes through the travel hole 26 on the backrest body 20 and is connected to the linear motion mechanism 3 inside the backrest body 20. The linear motion mechanism 3 can drive the headrest rod 12 to move along the height direction of the seat 100 to realize the height adjustment of the headrest 1. Since the headrest rod 12 extends along the front-back direction of the seat 100, the headrest rod 12 and the backrest 2 do not overlap in the height direction of the seat 100, avoiding the height of the headrest rod 12 occupying the height space of the backrest 2, thereby increasing the downward adjustment travel of the headrest 1, realizing a large travel height adjustment of the headrest 1, and meeting the support needs of the head and neck with a larger height adjustment range.

[0062] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 3 and 7, the linear motion mechanism 3 includes a drive mechanism 30 and a slider 31 that is pulsatorically connected to the drive mechanism 30. One end of the headrest rod 12 is connected to the slider 31. The drive mechanism 30 is used to drive the slider 31 to slide along the height direction of the seat 100. The guide sliding of the slider 31 along the height direction of the seat 100 is used to guide the height adjustment of the headrest 1, thereby improving the stability of the headrest 1 during the height adjustment process.

[0063] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 9 and 11, the headrest 1 further includes a connecting plate 13, which is connected to one end of the headrest rod 12 and is fixed to the slider 31. Whether welded or fixed by fasteners, the connecting plate 13 has a large cross-sectional area, making it easy to fix to the slider 31.

[0064] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 7 and 9, a first positioning hole 131 is provided on the connecting plate 13. The first positioning hole 131 has an opening facing the slider 31. A first positioning pin 311 is provided on the slider 31, extending along the front and rear of the seat 100. The first positioning pin 311 can be inserted into the first positioning hole 131 when the connecting plate 13 is installed on the slider 31.

[0065] When the connecting plate 13 is installed on the slider 31, the connecting plate 13 is positioned by inserting the first positioning pin 311 into the first positioning hole 131, which facilitates the subsequent fixing of the connecting plate 13 onto the slider 31, improves the convenience of assembly, and reduces the number of installers and labor costs.

[0066] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 6 to 11, a plurality of bolts are also included. The slider 31 is provided with a plurality of connecting holes 310. The connecting plate 13 is provided with a plurality of internal threaded holes 132 corresponding to the plurality of connecting holes 310. The rear side of the backrest body 20 is provided with an operating hole 28 corresponding to the plurality of connecting holes 310. The operating hole 28 allows the bolts to pass through the connecting holes 310. The shank of each bolt passes through the corresponding connecting hole 310 and is threadedly connected to the corresponding internal threaded hole 132.

[0067] It should be noted that the operating hole 28 corresponds to the connecting hole 310 on the slider 31 when it slides to its limit position, so as to facilitate the positioning of the slider 31. The operating hole 28 shown in the figure corresponds to the internal thread hole 132 on the connecting plate 13 when it slides to its lowest limit position.

[0068] In one embodiment, four bolts are provided, the slider 31 is square, and the slider 31 has connecting holes 310 at its four corners. The connecting plate 13 has internal threaded holes 132 at its four corners that correspond one-to-one with the four connecting holes 310.

[0069] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG7, the drive mechanism 30 includes a motor 32, a base 33, a lead screw 34 and a nut. The base 33 is fixed inside the backrest body 20. The lead screw 34 extends along the height direction of the seat 100. One end of the lead screw 34 is rotatably supported on the base 33, and the other end is connected to the output shaft of the motor 32. The nut is threadedly connected to the lead screw 34. The base 33 is provided with a circumferential limiting structure that can restrict the circumferential rotation of the nut.

[0070] The slider 31 is fixed to the nut, or the slider 31 and the nut are integrated. When the motor 32 drives the lead screw 34 to rotate, the nut can move linearly along the height direction of the seat 100, and the slider 31 moves with the nut to drive the headrest 1 to move along the height direction of the seat 100.

[0071] In one embodiment, the motor 32 is a Hall motor 32, which can provide real-time feedback on the current position of the headrest 1. It can cooperate with the ECU of the seat 100 in the vehicle to memorize the position of the headrest 1 and automatically adjust it to the preset zero-gravity posture position with one click.

[0072] In one embodiment, the slider 31 and the nut are integrated, that is, the slider 31 shown in the figure is the nut. The center of the slider 31 is provided with an internal threaded hole 132 that extends along the height direction of the seat 100, and the lead screw 34 is threadedly connected in the internal threaded hole 132.

[0073] In one embodiment, a slide rail protruding towards the headrest 1 is provided on the base 33. The slide rail extends along the height direction of the seat 100, and the slider 31 is slidably connected to the slide rail. The slide rail constitutes a circumferential limiting structure. The slide rail has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.

[0074] In one embodiment, the base 33 is a plate, and the base 33 includes a first bent section, a middle section and a second bent section. The first bent section and the second bent section are formed by bending the middle section toward the side away from the headrest 1, so that the middle section forms the slide rail mentioned above.

[0075] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG3, the backrest body 20 includes a backrest foam 23, a backrest cover 29, a backrest frame 21, a backrest decorative piece 240, and a backrest back panel 22. The backrest back panel 22 is fixed to the rear of the backrest frame 21, and the backrest foam 23 is fixed to the front of the backrest frame 21. The backrest foam 23 is fitted onto the outer ring of the backrest frame 21 from the front. The front side of the backrest foam 23 is provided with a decorative hole 27 that matches the shape of the backrest decorative piece 240. The headrest contacts and engages with the front side of the backrest decorative piece 240. The backrest decorative piece 240 is installed in the decorative hole 27 and fixed on the backrest frame 21. A travel hole 26 is formed on the backrest decorative piece 240.

[0076] The backrest foam 23 has limited hardness. Compared to the headrest 1, which is in contact with the backrest foam 23, the backrest decorative part 240 is made of a harder material, which makes it easier to control the processing tolerance. The headrest 1 and the backrest decorative part 240 have good contact with each other and the gap is small, which enhances the exquisite feel of the seat 100.

[0077] In one embodiment, the backrest panel 22 is snapped together with the backrest frame 21.

[0078] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 3 to 5, the backrest decorative component 240 includes a decorative component body 25 and a decorative component base 24.

[0079] As shown in Figure 3, both the main body 25 and the base 24 of the decorative part are provided with openings, which together constitute the aforementioned travel hole 26.

[0080] The split-structure backrest trim 240 can hide the connection structure between the trim base 24 and the slider 31 under the trim body 25 and the backrest molding 23, thereby improving the sophistication of the seat 100.

[0081] In one embodiment, the decorative body 25 is snapped into the decorative base 24.

[0082] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG3, the external dimensions of the decorative component body 25 are smaller than those of the decorative component base 24. The larger external dimensions of the decorative component base 24 are closer to the shape of the backrest frame 21, which makes it easier to design the connection structure between the decorative component base 24 and the backrest frame 21 on the periphery of the backrest frame 21, thus avoiding the linear motion mechanism 3.

[0083] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 6 and 7, the backrest frame 21 includes a backrest horizontal tube 211, a backrest crossbeam 212, a mechanism fixing plate 214, and multiple decorative component fixing plates 213.

[0099] In one embodiment, the headrest body also includes a speaker (not shown in the figure). The speaker is mounted on the headrest side wing frame 15, with the speaker's sound outlet facing the headrest foam 11. The headrest foam 11 has multiple first sound-permeable holes corresponding to the speaker's position. The sound emitted from the speaker's sound outlet is transmitted to the passenger through the first sound-permeable holes, ensuring both the speaker's sound quality and the support of the headrest 1's side wall. Furthermore, the speaker mounted on the headrest 1 is close to the passenger's ears, ensuring privacy during calls while enhancing the experience of calls and entertainment.

[0100] During assembly, first install the speaker on the headrest side wing frame 15, and then assemble the headrest side wing frame 15 onto the headrest frame base 14.

For example, the drive mechanism 30 may consist only of a linear motor 32, the output shaft of which is directly connected to the headrest rod 12.

[0110] In other embodiments, the connecting plate 13 can be omitted, and the other end of the headrest rod 12 can be directly fixed to the slider 31.

[0111] In other embodiments, the connecting plate 13 may be welded, riveted, or snap-fitted to the slider 31.

[0112] In other embodiments, the circumferential limiting structure may include two sets of limiting shafts. Each set of limiting shafts includes multiple limiting shafts spaced apart along the height direction of the seat 100. The limiting shafts extend along the left and right direction of the seat 100.
