The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1A and 1B, the multi-link folding mechanism 1 according to the present invention includes a first link 11, a second link 12, a telescopic link 13, and a third link 14, wherein bottom ends of the first link 11, the telescopic link 13, and the third link 14 are hinged to a fixed plane, a top end of the first link 11 is hinged to the second link 12, the second link 12 is hinged to a top end of the telescopic link 13, and a middle portion of the telescopic link 13 is hinged to a top end of the third link 14. Since the length of the telescopic link 13 can be changed, the second link 12 can be moved backward and downward with a large stroke by changing the included angle α between the first link 11 and the second link 12, and the telescopic link can be adjusted from the unfolded state shown in fig. 1A and 1B to the folded state shown in fig. 2A and 2B with a large stroke.
As shown in fig. 3, the multi-link folding mechanism 1 further includes a base structure 15 on a fixed surface to which a first support seat 151 and a second support seat 152 spaced apart from each other are fixed by screws, wherein the first support seat 151 has a first support mounting shaft 151a protruding laterally, and the second support seat 152 has a second support mounting shaft 152a and a third support mounting shaft 152b protruding laterally and spaced apart from each other. The second link 12 has laterally projecting first and second link mounting shafts 121 and 122 spaced apart from each other. The middle of the pantograph link 13 has a laterally projecting third link mounting shaft 131. Both ends of the first link 11 are hinged to the first support mounting shaft 151A and the first link mounting shaft 121, respectively, to achieve the support and rotation functions of the front end of the second link 12 through two hinge points (see fig. 1A and 2A). Both ends of the telescopic link 13 are respectively hinged to the second support mounting shaft 152A and the second link mounting shaft 122, and both ends of the third link 14 are respectively hinged to the third support mounting shaft 152b and the third link mounting shaft 131, so as to realize the supporting and rotating functions of the rear end of the second link 12 through four hinge points (see fig. 1A and 2A).
As shown in fig. 4, the telescopic link 13 includes a first member 131 hinged to the second link 12 (see fig. 3), a second member 132 hinged to the base structure 15 (see fig. 3), and a linear slide assembly located therebetween, the linear slide assembly including a guide rail 133 and a slider 134 slidable along the guide rail 133, wherein the first member 131 and the slider 134 are fixedly connected by a screw 135, and the second member 132 and the guide rail 133 are fixedly connected by a bolt, so that the first member 131 and the second member 132 can move telescopically in a length direction to form a linear motion pair. When the telescopic link 13 contacts the second member 132 at the slider 134, the extreme position of movement is reached, i.e. the catch point.
As shown in fig. 3, the multi-link folding mechanism 1 further includes a lock unlocking mechanism 16 provided on the second link 12 for locking and fixing the second link 12 in the unfolded state or the folded state and for unlocking the second link 12 from the unfolded state or the folded state to adjust to the folded state or the unfolded state. The lock-unlock mechanism 16 includes an execution unlock mechanism 161, a cable 162, a lock-up latch 163, and a compression spring 164, wherein the execution unlock mechanism 161 is fixed to one side of the second link 12 by screw installation, the lock-up latch 163 passes through the compression spring 164 and is movably installed to the other side of the second link 12 by a mount, and the cable 162 extends through the second link 12 and is connected to the execution unlock mechanism 161 and the lock-up latch 163, respectively, so that the lock-up latch 163 is driven to retract backward in the axial direction against the urging force of the compression spring 164 by the execution unlock mechanism 161 via the cable 162.
As shown in fig. 5, the top end of the first link 11 has a laterally protruding boss 111 inserted into the first link mounting shaft 121 to be hinged (see fig. 3). The boss 111 has a first pin hole 111a and a second pin hole 111b penetrating through a circumferential wall thereof, which are engaged with the locking pin 163. The first link 11 further has a stopper 112 having a sheet-like structure extending in an arc shape, and is inserted into and engaged with an arc groove 123 below the first link mounting shaft 121 of the second link 12 (see fig. 3).
As shown in fig. 6, in the unfolded state, the lock latch 163 is extended forward in the axial direction by the driving of the compression spring 164, remains inserted into the first latch hole 111a, and fixes the first link 11 and the second link 12, thereby locking the multi-link folding mechanism 1. At this time, the stopping point 112 is located at one end of the arc groove 123 and is tightly pressed against the second link 12, so as to play a role of supporting the second link 12.
As shown in fig. 7, the cable 162 pulls the locking latch 163 backward against the elastic force of the compression spring 164 by performing the unlocking mechanism 161 (see fig. 3) to withdraw from the first latch hole 111a of the boss 111, so that the boss 111 (the first link 11) and the first link mounting shaft 121 (the second link 12) can rotate relative to each other, the angle between the first link 11 and the second link 12 is changed to be folded, and the stopping point 112 moves in the arc groove 123.
When the stopper 112 moves to the other end of the arc groove 123 and abuts against the second link 12, the boss 111 (the first link 11) rotates to the position shown in fig. 8, and the lock latch 163 is inserted into the second latch hole 111b by the driving of the compression spring 164, so that the first link 11 and the second link 12 are fixed in the folded state, thereby locking the multi-link folding mechanism 1.
As shown in fig. 9, the car seat 2 according to the present invention includes a seat cushion 21 and a seat back 22, wherein the seat back 22 and the seat cushion 21 are hinged to achieve folding of the seat back 22, and a multi-link folding mechanism 1 is provided on both sides of the seat cushion 21, wherein the second links 12 are formed as both side wall plates of the seat cushion 21, so that the seat cushion 21 can achieve large-stroke folding by means of the multi-link folding mechanism 1. Furthermore, in the folded state, the backrest 22 can be kept horizontal so that luggage can be placed thereon.
The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, which are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and various changes may be made in the above embodiments of the present invention. All simple and equivalent changes and modifications made according to the claims and the content of the specification of the present application fall within the scope of the claims of the present patent application.
