Background
Vibration of the vehicle seat is an important factor affecting the riding comfort of the vehicle. Especially under the idle working condition, the vibration excitation of the vehicle engine is large and the frequency is low, so that the vibration of the seat system is easy to excite. The headrest is located at the uppermost part of the vehicle seat system, and therefore the vibration is amplified to some extent, which causes extreme discomfort to the head of the occupant. In the case of a luxury vehicle-type seat, the headrest thereof has a complicated structure, and therefore, it is more common that the headrest vibrates greatly.
In this regard, the vibration of the seat headrest is reduced in many cases by reducing the vibration of the seat at the vehicle body mounting point, changing the modal frequency of the seat, adding a power headrest absorber to the seat back, and the like, so that improvement in the riding comfort is expected. However, these prior arts including the above are all intended to indirectly reduce the vibration of the headrest by lowering the base or the backrest of the vehicle seat, and the effect obtained in practice is poor.

Some technical parameters in the embodiment of fig. 1 are shown in the table shown in fig. 2.
Fig. 3 is a schematic front view of a headrest absorber according to the present invention mounted to a vehicle seat.
Detailed Description
First, it should be noted that the method for reducing vibration of a headrest for a vehicle seat, the headrest absorber, the steps, the constitution, the features and the advantages of the vehicle, etc. of the present invention will be specifically described below by way of examples, however, all the descriptions are for illustrative purposes only and they should not be construed as forming any limitation of the present invention. Furthermore, any single feature described or implicit in an embodiment or any single feature shown or implicit in the drawings or shown or implicit in the drawings, may still allow any combination or permutation to continue between the features (or their equivalents) without any technical barriers and thus further embodiments according to the invention should also be considered within the scope of this disclosure.
Fig. 1 schematically illustrates a basic flow of an embodiment of a method for reducing vibrations of a vehicle seat headrest according to the present invention, and fig. 2 is a table showing some technical parameters of the embodiment of fig. 1, and the method for reducing vibrations of a vehicle seat headrest according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the two drawings.
In this given embodiment, the method for reducing vibration of a vehicle seat headrest may include the steps of:
first, in step S11, a vehicle seat modal test is performed to obtain modal characteristics of the vehicle seat.
By way of example only, vehicle seat modal testing may be performed using a force hammer, an acceleration sensor, a signal collector, and transfer function analysis software. In an alternative case, for example, the direction of the modal test of the vehicle seat may be set to the front-rear direction of the insert rod of the headrest of the vehicle seat, the excitation point of the force hammer may be located at the middle position of the insert rod, the frequency resolution of the frequency response function analysis may be set to 0.5Hz, the loading state of the vehicle seat includes the states in which at least two occupants having different heights and weights are seated and lean against the backrest and the headrest of the vehicle seat, the modal frequency average of each occupant in the loading state of the vehicle seat may be calculated, and the modal frequency average may be taken as the resonance frequency of the headrest vibration absorber to be discussed below.
In addition, in an optional case, it is also possible to further perform tuning optimization after the headrest absorber is mounted to the headrest of the vehicle seat so as to make the vibration-absorbing effect of the headrest absorber within the preset deviation range of the resonance frequency as expected. For example, in fig. 2, it is shown that when tuning is performed for the headrest vibration absorber, it is evaluated whether the actual vibration damping effect is expected within a range of 10% deviation of the resonance frequency.
In addition, in the above tuning optimization, it is optional to appropriately adjust the set resonance frequency or the weight of the headrest vibration absorber (such as the weight of the vibration absorbing mass therein) so as to achieve the desired vibration absorbing effect of the headrest vibration absorber within the preset deviation range of the resonance frequency. For example, it is also shown in fig. 2 whether the actual vibration-damping effect within a range of 5% deviation of the weight of the vibration-absorbing mass in the headrest vibration absorber can be taken into account to make a corresponding adjustment so that the vibration-absorbing effect is finally expected.
Next, in step S12, a vehicle seat vibration test may be performed to obtain a maximum amplitude of the vehicle seat headrest at the vehicle in the idle condition. More specifically, the vibration test of the vehicle seat is mainly performed for the purpose of ensuring that the headrest vibration absorber can freely vibrate without interference from the surroundings under the idling condition of the vehicle, so that the vibration absorbing function is achieved.
As an exemplary illustration, the vehicle seat vibration test may be performed using an acceleration sensor, a signal collector, and spectrum analysis software. In an alternative case, for example, the vehicle seat vibration test point may be disposed in the front-rear direction of the plunger of the headrest of the vehicle seat, and the frequency resolution of the spectral analysis may be 1.0 Hz.
Next, in step S13, parameters of the headrest absorber, including the resonant frequency, the weight, the mounting direction and the size of the headrest absorber, and the clearance from the periphery, are determined based on the modal characteristics of the vehicle seat, the maximum amplitude of the headrest of the vehicle seat when the vehicle is in the idle condition, and the weight and the size of the headrest of the vehicle seat obtained in the previous step.
As an exemplary illustration, the vibration absorbing mass in the headrest vibration absorber can be set to 15% of the headrest weight. In an alternative case, the modal frequency average value of each occupant in the loaded state of the vehicle seat, which has been calculated heretofore, may be taken as the resonance frequency of the headrest absorber. After the weight and the resonance frequency of the vibration-absorbing mass have been determined, the stiffness of the rubber springs that can be used to mount the headrest vibration absorber to the headrest can also be determined. For example, the mounting direction of the headrest absorber may be set to the front-rear direction X as the main direction.
Further, in an alternative case, the gap between the headrest absorber and the periphery may be determined according to the maximum amplitude of the headrest of the vehicle seat when the vehicle is in an idle condition, and the predetermined gap range (for example, a predetermined gap range) may be exceeded in the gap+0.1 mm), the headrest absorber can be provided with a bracket for hard limiting of the headrest absorber, and/or a flexible material (such as felt, rubber, etc.) can be provided on the surface of the headrest absorber for soft limiting of the headrest absorber, so as to avoid the headrest absorber from impacting peripheral parts under bumpy road conditions to generate undesirable abnormal sound.
Subsequently, in step S14, the headrest vibration absorber is manufactured based on the parameters obtained in step S13 and then mounted to the headrest of the vehicle seat, thereby achieving a good technical effect of vibration damping and absorption.
The mounting of a headrest absorber according to the invention to a vehicle seat is shown in figure 3 only in a schematic manner. As shown in fig. 3, the vibration absorbing mass 1 of the headrest vibration absorber can be attached to the frame 2 of the headrest of the vehicle seat via 4 rubber springs 3, which headrest is to be inserted onto the vehicle seat via the plug rods 4 of the 2 vehicle seat headrests. According to a large number of practical tests, it is shown that when a headrest vibration absorber according to the present invention having a weight of about 0.3kg is applied, the vibration of the headrest of the seat of the vehicle at the time of idling of the vehicle can be reduced by 10dB, which is 2 times as much as the vibration reduction effect generally achieved by applying the prior art, and the weight is only 50% thereof.
In view of the technical advantages of the method for reducing vibration of a headrest of a vehicle seat, such as those mentioned above, the method is very suitable for wide application, so that the vibration of the headrest can be effectively reduced, the amplitude of the vibration transmitted from the headrest to the head of an occupant can be greatly reduced, and even the vibration can be completely eliminated, and the riding comfort and user satisfaction can be remarkably improved.
In addition, according to still another aspect of the present invention, there is also provided a headrest vibration absorber for reducing vibration of a headrest of a vehicle seat, the headrest vibration absorber being manufactured by the method for reducing vibration of a headrest of a vehicle seat provided according to the present invention, and by using such a headrest vibration absorber, vibration of the headrest can be significantly reduced, achieving excellent technical effects of vibration-reducing and absorbing.
In addition, the present invention also provides a vehicle having at least one vehicle seat equipped with a headrest absorber designed to be provided according to the present invention, so as to fully exploit the technical advantages of the present invention, such as those discussed above, which are significantly superior to the prior art.
The method for reducing vibration of a headrest of a vehicle seat, the headrest absorber and the vehicle according to the present invention have been explained in detail by way of examples only, and these examples are provided only for illustrating the principles of the present invention and the embodiments thereof, not for limiting the present invention, and those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Accordingly, all equivalents are intended to be included within the scope of this invention and defined in the claims which follow.
