Lifting structure of chair headrest
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a lifting structure of a headrest, and more particularly, to a lifting structure of a headrest of a chair mounted on a backrest of the chair.
Background
The design of the chair has gradually emphasized the ergonomics, so there are many background technologies in the market, such as the patent US6,709,059 applied to the lifting adjustment of the chair back. The above patent uses a straight swingable tooth (Cog) entering a chute opening of a chute base to move in each chute for lifting operation, and the tooth (Cog) can return to the position of the axial center after swinging by gravity. However, the above-mentioned patent components are complicated and troublesome to install, which relatively increases the cost and is not suitable for mass production, so that the conventional lifting structure does have room for further improvement.
The present invention is to design a member that can be easily installed for the lifting structure of chair headrest to solve the problems faced by the above patent.

As shown in fig. 4 and 5, the inclined inlet guide 11 is located near the top of the side separated by the axial center (as shown by the Y axis in fig. 3 and 5) of the lifting base 10 and extends downward from the top of the lifting base 10; the main straight guide groove 12 is located on the same side of the inclined inlet guide groove 11 and extends downwards from the upper part to the lower part of the lifting seat 10; the curved guide groove 13 is located between the lower portion of the slant entry guide groove 11 and the upper portion of the main straight guide groove 12, so that the slant entry guide groove 11 is communicated with the main straight guide groove 12, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, wherein the bottom surface of the curved guide groove 13 further forms a descending slope 131 toward the bottom surface of the slant entry guide groove 11, and further forms a steep descending slope 132 with a drop (as shown by a height H in fig. 6) toward the bottom surface of the main straight guide groove 12; and a plurality of stepped guide grooves 14 arranged in sequence from the lower portion to the upper portion of the lifting base 10 on the opposite side of the main straight guide groove 12, wherein each stepped guide groove 14 has a stop groove point 15, the upper portion of the uppermost stepped guide groove 14 communicates with the upper portion of the main straight guide groove 12 and defines an upper end groove point 16, and the lower portion of the lowermost stepped guide groove 14 communicates with the lower portion of the main straight guide groove 12 and defines a lower end groove point 17.
The lifting seat 10 is further locked with a positioning member 50 into a whole, but not to limit the invention, the positioning member 50 has a fastening straight rod 51 and a fastening cross rod 52, so that the fastening straight rod 51 and the fastening cross rod 52 of the positioning member 50 can be further clamped on the upper portion of a frame 201 of the chair back 2, and can be applied to the chair backs 2 with various shapes and sizes.
The upper end of the headrest bottom straight support 20 is connected with a headrest 3 so that the headrest 3 can synchronously lift and slide along with the headrest bottom straight support 20, the headrest bottom straight support 20 is provided with a straight sliding groove 21 for being detachably arranged on the lifting seat 10, and when the headrest bottom straight support 20 and the lifting seat 10 are combined into a whole, the lifting structure 1 and the chair back 2 are combined into a whole.
The upper end of the elastic positioning rod 30 is fixedly disposed at an axial center (as shown by the Y axis in fig. 3 and 5) in the straight chute 21 of the headrest bottom straight support 20, and the lower end thereof forms a positioning end 31, the positioning end 31 can be elastically retained at the axial center (as shown by the Y axis in fig. 3 and 5) in the straight chute 21 by the elasticity of the material of the elastic positioning rod 30, so that the positioning end 31 can swing left and right (as shown by the X arrow in fig. 3) at the axial center (as shown by the Y axis in fig. 3 and 5) by the elastic force.
The straight sliding groove 21 of the headrest bottom straight support 20 is further provided with a stabilizing member 40, but not limiting the invention, the stabilizing member 40 has a fixing hole 41 and a fixing groove 42, so that the upper end of the elastic positioning rod 30 can be embedded and fixed in the fixing hole 41, and an upper section part 32 of the elastic positioning rod 30 can be embedded and fixed in the fixing groove 42, so that the elastic positioning rod 30 can be held on the axial center (as shown by the Y axis of fig. 3 and 5) of the lifting seat 10 by the elasticity of the material.
Referring to fig. 2 to 5, when the headrest bottom straight support 20 is assembled on the lifting seat 10, the positioning end 31 of the elastic positioning rod 30 can be guided into the inclined inlet guide groove 11 of the lifting seat 10 by the elastic bending of the material (as shown by the arrow X direction in fig. 3) away from the axial center (as shown by the axis Y in fig. 3 and 5), as shown in fig. 5 and 6, the positioning end 31 slides downward again and climbs upward toward the descending slope 131 of the curved guiding groove 13 by elastically returning to the axial center (as shown by the Y-axis in fig. 3 and 5) (as shown by the arrow X in fig. 3), and is guided into the main straight guide groove 12 over the steep falling slope 132, because the steep falling slope 132 has a height difference (as shown by the height H in fig. 6) toward the bottom surface of the main straight guide groove 12, the positioning end 31 is located on the bottom surface of the main straight guide groove 12 lower than the steep falling slope 132, and is not easy to slide back to the inclined inlet guide groove 11.
Referring to fig. 1, 4 and 5, after the positioning end 31 of the elastic positioning rod 30 is introduced into the main straight guiding groove 12 of the lifting seat 10, the positioning end 31 slides downward along the main straight guiding groove 12 to stop at the lower end groove point 17 (as shown in position a of fig. 1 and 5).
When the headrest bottom straight support 20 is pulled to make the positioning end 31 slide upwards synchronously, the positioning end 31 leaves the lower end slot point 17 (as shown in position a of fig. 1 and 5) and slides along the lowest stepped guide slot 14 to the stopping slot point 15 (as shown in position B of fig. 1 and 5) stopped on the stepped guide slot 14 to form a lowest height position.
By the same operation manner as described above, the positioning end 31 can be slid from the "B" stop groove point 15 of the next-step guide groove 14 and stopped at the "C" stop groove point 15 of the previous-step guide groove 14; or a "D" stopping groove point 15 sliding from the "C" stopping groove point 15 and stopping at the upper step guide groove 14; or slide from the "D" stop slot point 15 and stop on the "E" stop slot point 15 of the upper step guide groove 14 to complete the height position adjustment.
When the headrest bottom straight support 20 is pulled further to slide the positioning end 31 from the "E" stop slot point 15 to the uppermost upper slot point 16 (as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 5 at position F), the positioning end 31 can slide directly along the stepped guide slot 14 by the elasticity of the material to enter the main straight guide slot 12 and stop at the lower slot point 17 (as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 5 at position a), so that the next sliding adjustment operation of the height position of the headrest 3 can be performed.
Compared with the prior art, the lifting structure 1 of the chair headrest has the following advantages:
(1) the lifting structure 1 of the chair headrest of the present invention is composed of three main components, namely, the lifting seat 10, the headrest bottom straight support 20 and the elastic positioning rod 30, and the simple assembly of a small number of components is advantageous for cost reduction and mass production.
(2) The lifting structure 1 of the chair headrest of the invention and the chair back 2 can be combined separately, which is beneficial to the convenience of loading and transporting for manufacturers.
(3) The curved guiding groove 13 of the lifting seat 10 of the present invention has a bottom surface with a height difference (as shown by the height H in fig. 6), and a steep falling slope 132 with a height difference (as shown by the height H in fig. 6) is formed toward the bottom surface of the main straight guiding groove 12, so that the positioning end 31 is not easy to slide back to the inclined inlet guiding groove 11 and fall off after being guided into the main straight guiding groove 12 from the curved guiding groove 13.
The foregoing is merely a preferred embodiment of this invention, which is intended to be illustrative, not limiting; those skilled in the art will appreciate that many variations, modifications, and even equivalent variations are possible within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
