Referring to FIG. 5, the airbag 420 may be attached to the airbag 420 without a separate support portion 322 ' And an airbag hanger 421 'which is inserted into an open hole of the lower surface of the lower case 322 and is received in the airbag 420 by the inflow / outflow port 421.

Here, a protective rib 522 is disposed around the airbag 420 to prevent the airbag 420 from flowing or being damaged by an external force or impact, and is fixed to the lower surface of the lower case 322.

4 and 5, when the pressurized air or fluid is introduced by an external utility, the air bag 420 swells (Sw) in a normal state (Re), and the diaphragm 300 .

6, when the support portion 322 'is provided between the airbag 420 and the lower surface of the lower case 322, the airbag 420 may further include an overlock material. see.

6 is a perspective view showing an airbag, a support, and an overhang separately used as a height adjusting portion of the diaphragm according to the present invention. Referring to FIG. 6, a fluid or air can be prevented from flowing on one surface of the support portion 322 ' The airbag 420 has an airtight shape that is entirely enclosed but can be inflated or contracted by pressurized air or fluid. The inflow / (421), and the fluid may be water or oil.

In this case, the outlet portion 421 is connected to an external utility, and the support portion 322 'is provided with a separate opening 611 on the surface contacting the outlet portion 421.

Here, the attachment of the support portion 322 'and the airbag 420 may be achieved by attaching the support portion 322' to the support portion 410 physically by heat pressing, as well as attaching the airbag 420 to the support portion 410, It is not necessary to limit the attachment method particularly in view of preventing the airbag 420 from being reduced or expanded.

The inflow and outflow port 421 is filled with air or fluid by the utility (not shown) to fill or empty the air bag 420 to expand or contract the air bag 420, Or lower.

Herein, the utility refers to a device capable of supplying air or fluid with a pressure or a differential pressure by a separate power source, and may be provided as a separate body as in the prior art, or may be a utility installed in a home, hospital, System, water supply and drainage system, pressurized air system by compressor, differential pressure air system by vacuum pump, etc.).

In addition, the airbag 420 is not particularly limited within the range of durability of the material due to repeated expansion and contraction, but may be natural rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), butadiene rubber BR, butyl rubber, epichlorohydrin rubber, nitrile rubber, hydrogenated nitrile rubber, brominated polyisobutyl isoprene-co-paramet hyl styrene, urethane rubber, fluorine rubber, silicone rubber, SEBS, ethylene propylene rubber, EPDM rubber, At least one selected from the group consisting of polyacrylonitrile rubber, polyacrylonitrile rubber, polyacrylonitrile rubber, polyacrylonitrile rubber, polyacrylonitrile rubber, polyacrylonitrile rubber, polyacrylonitrile rubber,

The airbag 420 may further include a separate overlock material 630 to increase the durability of the airbag 420.

In addition, the height adjuster 340 may be an integral cylinder composed of a cylinder operated by pressurized air and a piston, which will be described with reference to FIG.

7 is a side view (a), a lower surface (b) and a side view (c) of the height adjusting portion of the diaphragm according to the present invention. Referring to FIG. 7, the piston 710 used as the height adjusting portion The lower case 322 protrudes from the lower surface of the lower case 322, thereby raising the diaphragm 300.

The piston 710 is provided with a separate cap portion 711 at its lower end to prevent slipping or noise from the floor. The piston 710 is inserted into the lower case 322 and fixed Is integrally formed with a cylinder 710 'which is attached and fixed to the outside, is closed, and is raised or lowered by a differential pressure or pressurized air or fluid supplied from an external utility. In the figure, four integral- However, since the shape of the cap portion 711 can be variously changed, one, two, three, or more of the cap portions 711 may be provided so as to be limited within a range capable of raising or lowering the diaphragm 300 It is not.

Here, the mechanism for operating the height adjusting unit 340 in conjunction with the sensing sensor 333 will be described. The sensing sensor 333 senses whether the diaphragm 300 is in contact with the user (Not shown). When the sensing sensor 333 is in contact with the user when operating power is applied to the diaphragm 300, the control unit transmits an activation signal to an external utility .

On the other hand, if the sensing sensor 333 is in non-contact with the user when the operating power is applied to the diaphragm 300, the control unit transmits an operation signal to the utility. Thereby supplying the fluid.

Then, the controller 300 senses that the diaphragm 300 is lifted and comes into close contact with the body of the user, and the control unit detects the stop signal to interrupt the supply of pressurized air or fluid by the sensing sensor 333, The supply of pressurized air or fluid is stopped.

In addition, when the user sends an operation signal indefinitely when the user does not contact the absence user, there is a risk of damage to the height adjuster 340. Therefore, the controller generates a stop signal for stopping the operation by itself . For example, such a configuration can be set in correlation with consideration of the pressure to be pressurized and the expansion speed of the height adjusting section.

Subsequently, after the use is finished, the control unit supplies the air or the fluid supplied to the height adjuster 340 to the external utility through the differential pressure So that the height adjusting unit 340 can be restored to its original state.

The operation of the piston 710 in the integrated module of the piston 710 and the cylinder 710 'used as the height adjuster is not limited to the operation of the pressurized / differential pressure air or fluid, but also the operation of electromagnetic solenoid valve, And the piston 710 can be raised and lowered. One end of the piston 710 can be raised and lowered by a magnetic force, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In addition, the electromagnetic lifting as well as the mechanical lifting may be used, which will be described with reference to FIG.

Fig. 8 is a view showing the construction of the rack pinion gear of the piston for lifting and lowering the height adjusting portion according to the present invention and the construction diagram (b) of the cam gear. Fig.

Referring to FIG. 8, one end of the piston of the integral piston 710 and the cylinder 710 'module engages with a motor Mo capable of forward rotation or reverse rotation. For example, a rack pinion gear The diaphragm 300 of the present invention rises when the motor Mo rotates in the positive direction and the motor 300 moves downward when the motor Mo rotates in the opposite direction.

In another example, the piston of the integral piston 710 and the cylinder 710 'module is raised and lowered by an arm 810 of the cam gear Cam coupled to the motor Mo, The description is omitted.

Here, the motor Mo is inserted into and fixed to the lower case 322 adjacent to the cylinder 710 '.

The hitch case 123 may be provided with a latching protrusion 911 for preventing the projection 921 provided along the outer circumferential surface of the one end of the hose 920 from being caught and removed.
