Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to seats for vehicles, etc., and to explain in more detail, the center part of the seat cushion, which is normally used as a seat cushion, or the side part of the seat cushion can be used as an armrest. The present invention relates to a seat for a vehicle etc. that can be used as a seat.

Conventional automobile seats, for example, first and second seats
In the case of a so-called bench type seat in which the seating portions of the seat cushion are integrally formed, a separately formed armrest may be placed between the first and second seating portions of the seat cushion, or an armrest may be placed between the first and second seating portions of the seat cushion. In many cases, a method such as pulling out the armrest that is partially stored is used, and in the former case, this armrest becomes a nuisance when the armrest is not in use, and in the latter case, when pulling out the armrest, the armrest is turned backwards. Moreover, it has the disadvantage that small items cannot be stored in a well-organized manner in the space of the vertically long armrest storage area that is formed after removing the armrest stored in the seat bag.

The purpose of this invention is to be able to store the armrest in the seat cushion when the armrest is not in use, to use the seat cushion without the armrest protruding, and to be able to use the armrest without facing backwards. To provide a seat for a vehicle, etc. that can be extremely easily pulled out and used as an armrest, small items etc. can be neatly stored under the armrest of the seat cushion, and can also be used as a table. This will become clear from the detailed description below with reference to the drawings.

1 to 3 schematically show an embodiment in which the vehicle seat according to the present invention is applied to a bench type seat of an automobile, and this seat 1 has first and second seats. Although shown as a seat cushion 2 having sections 2A and 2B, it can be similarly applied to a large seat having a third seating section or more, and the present invention can also be applied to seats for home use. It is possible.

First and second seating portions 2 of seat cushion 2
An armrest storage part 4 is formed between A and 2B, and an armrest part 5 is stored in this armrest storage part 4. The armrest storage portion 4 is formed to be elongated from the front side portion 2a of the seat cushion 2 toward the seatback 3, and is also formed in a concave shape with an appropriate distance left between the lower end of the seatback 3 and the armrest storage portion 4. A step portion 7 is formed on the front side.

The armrest portion 5 constitutes a part of the seat cushion 2 in the normal state shown in FIG. 1, and can be used as an armrest as shown in FIG. 2. That is, the armrest portion 5 is formed into an elongated shape that is substantially the same as the armrest storage portion 4, and is designed to prevent the armrest portion 5 from protruding or falling from the upper surface of the seat cushion 2, and to fit into the stepped portion 7 of the armrest storage portion 4. The thickness of the front side of the armrest part 5 to be placed is approximately equal to the height up to the stepped part 7 of the armrest storage part 4, and the rear end of the armrest part 5 is formed to have a thickness that is approximately equal to the height of the armrest storage part 4 up to the stepped part 7. The protrusion 8 is formed to have a thickness that is approximately equal to the height. Although the length of the protrusion 8 is relatively long in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, it can be set as appropriate.

The armrest section 5 is connected to the armrest storage section 4 via a pair of links 9.
One end of the link 9 is connected to a pivot pin 10 at the lower part of both inner sides of the armrest storage section 4, slightly rearward from the center.
The other ends are rotatably supported by pivot pins 11 in front of both sides of the armrest portion 5, respectively. The pivot pins 10 and 11 are fixed to a frame (not shown) of the seat cushion 2, a frame (not shown) of the armrest portion 5, etc. Reference numeral 13 denotes a pull-out belt attached to the rear end of the armrest portion 5 for pulling out the armrest portion 5.

A concave first engaging portion 15 is formed on the seat cushion 2 at a position close to the seat back 3, and a convex second engaging portion 17 is formed on the protruding portion 8 at the rear end of the armrest portion 5. The convex second engaging portion 17 is engaged with the concave first engaging portion 15, and a concave third engaging portion 17 is formed at the lower rear end of the armrest storage portion 4. An engaging portion 19 is formed, and when the armrest portion 5 is pulled out by rotation of the link 9, the seat cushion 2
It is designed to be held in a stable state or stored in an armrest storage section 4 in a stable state.

According to this configuration, when the armrest portion 5 is stored in the armrest storage portion 4, the space between the first and second seating portions 2A and 2B of the seat cushion 2 can be used in a flat state. Furthermore, by pulling the pull-out belt 13 diagonally rearward, the second and third engaging portions 17 and 19 can be disengaged and the armrest portion 5 can be pulled out in the three directions of the seat back. Link 9 is pivot pin 1
0, and the protruding portion 8 formed at the rear end of the armrest portion 5 is rotated around the seat cushion 2.
When placed on the rear end portion of the seat cushion 2, the first engaging portion 15 formed on the rear end portion of the seat cushion 2 is connected to the second engaging portion 17 formed on the protruding portion 8 of the armrest portion 5.
are engaged, and the front end portion of the armrest portion 5 is held according to the length of the pair of links 9. Furthermore, when the armrest part 5 is used as an armrest, when storing the armrest part 5 in the armrest storage part 4, it is only necessary to engage each engaging part in the opposite manner as described above, and the armrest part 5 can be pulled out or stored, and since there is no need to turn backward each time during this operation, the operation can be performed quickly.

4 and 5 show the case where the armrest portion 5 is applied to the seat 1 having a different shape, the tip of the armrest portion 5 is formed relatively round, and the protruding portion 8 at the rear end is formed. It has the same structure as the above-mentioned embodiment except that it is formed relatively short.

Furthermore, when storing or taking out small items in the space formed below the stepped portion 7 of the armrest storage portion 4, it is only necessary to rotate the armrest portion 5 around one end of the link 9. This allows you to store and take out small items easily and quickly.
As shown by imaginary lines in FIGS. 4 and 5, the armrest portion 5 can be inverted and held in a substantially horizontal state with the back side of the armrest portion 5 as the top surface. In this case, the back side of the armrest portion 5 can be used as a table.

In this embodiment, the armrest storage section 4
is formed in the center of the seat cushion 2, but it can also be formed in the side part of the seat cushion 2, and the first to third engaging parts 15,
The shapes of the arms 17 and 19 are not limited to those shown in the drawings, and the shape of the armrest portion 5 is also not limited to that shown in the drawings.

According to the vehicle seat of the present invention, the armrest portion can be stored in the seat cushion when the armrest is not in use, and when the armrest is desired to be used, the armrest portion can be stored in the seat cushion from the armrest storage portion of the seat cushion. It can be pulled out easily and quickly, and there is no need to turn backwards during this work, making the work easier. Also, the armrest storage section can be used as a storage compartment for small items, and it is extremely easy and quick to put in and take out small items. Furthermore, the back side of the armrest part can be used as a table.
