Description

Slim type lumbar protection chair {SLIM-TYPE LUMBAR PROTECTING CHIAR}

The present invention adopts a tension spring as an elastic member of the tilting means, the user can smoothly back the back plate tilt variable tilting back and the desired inclination is maintained stable to significantly improve the feeling of use, and minimize the protrusion of the back of the back space The present invention relates to a slim lumbar protection chair that enhances usability and improves the merchandise by implementing a slim design.

The chair is required to be able to stably support the entire body from the cervical spine, which is upper back to the lower lumbar spine, even in a posture change such as the user tilting his back.

However, the general chair is fixed to the support connected to the lower plate of the lower back plate, when the user leans back, the back plate does not support the waist portion, the waist is floating in the air, and sitting in the chair for a long time back pain, etc. There was a problem causing.

As an alternative to this problem, a chair that allows the back plate to support the lower back even when the user leans back is disclosed in Publication No. 20-2009-0002112 (hereinafter referred to as "prior art").

As shown in FIG. 10, the chair 100 according to the related art is fixed to a structure positioned below the seat plate 120, and a support 130 supporting the back plate 110 is tilted through the tilting means 150. Is configured to be coupled to the back plate 110, the tilting means 150 is the first bracket 155 is fixed to the back plate 110, the second bracket 156 fixed to the support 130, the first A torsion shaft 151 connecting the first bracket 155 and the second bracket 156 from the upper portion, and a torsion fitted to the hinge shaft 151 and interposed between the first bracket 155 and the second bracket 156. It consists of a spring 153, an adjustment screw 157 for fixing the second bracket 156 to the first bracket 155 and fixed to the first bracket 155, and a cover 158 covering the upper portion of the tilting means 150. .

Looking at the operation state of the configuration as described above, the first bracket 155 fixed to the back plate 110 and the second bracket 156 fixed to the support 130 through the torsion spring 153 is hinged by the user When the back is folded back, the back plate 110 is inclined about the hinge axis 151 and has a merit of closely supporting the waist at all times in conjunction with a change in posture of the user.

However, this conventional technology has various problems by using the torsion spring 153 as described above.

First, since the torsion spring has a slight increase in repulsive force during the pressurization from the initial stage of pressurization, after the user starts to change the inclination of the back plate by applying a force to the back, for example, even if the user stops pushing the force to the desired inclination of 30 degrees. There is a fatal disadvantage that the tilt rotation of the back plate continues due to weight pressure and the waist is lifted.

When the torsion spring is used as a high strength to prevent such a waist, there is a problem in that it is inconvenient to use because it requires a very large force to be applied to the user's power in the tilt variable starting to tilt the back plate.

Second, the torsion spring can not be fixed to any one side when assembling first, there is a difficulty in the assembly work and reduces productivity.

Third, the torsion spring inevitably requires a variable space for the torsion spring 153 between the first bracket 155 on the back plate 110 and the second bracket 156 on the support 130. The support 130 from the protruding width is large, occupies a large amount of rear space in which the chair is placed, generates a rectangular space, and makes space utilization difficult.
