Description
The present invention relates to a lumber support assembly, and more particularly, to a lumber support assembly installed on a seat back frame inside a vehicle seat, capable of lifting up and down, and rotating toward the back and waist of the occupant.
Seats are installed inside the vehicle to allow passengers to sit.These seats are seat cushions that support the hips of the passengers, seatbacks that support the back, armrests that can put the arms of the passengers, and headrests that support the heads. Is made of.
Looking in detail the seatback associated with the present invention, a seatback frame serving as a skeleton of the seatback is installed inside the seatback, a lumber support assembly for supporting the back of the passenger is installed inside the seatback frame.
At this time, the lumber support assembly has a variable structure so as to fit the spine shape of the occupant in order to reduce the fatigue of the occupant during vehicle operation.
Looking at the conventional variable lumber support assembly, after forming a protrusion on the rotating rod coupled to the seat back frame, and installs a compact mat for supporting the waist of the occupant on the protrusion, the rotating rod according to the position of the occupant sitting on the seat Rotating the compact mat back and forth in the seatback frame to support the passenger's back and waist.
However, this conventional variable lumber support structure is inconvenient because it is impossible for the occupant to adjust the deformation of the compact mat according to his or her body because the installation position of the rotating rod is fixed.
In addition, by assembling and manufacturing a large number of parts, the failure rate is high, manufacturing cost and time are high, and vibrations and shocks generated due to road conditions or traffic conditions during driving are applied to the waist of the occupant through the protrusions. As it is transmitted, the occupant easily feels tired or at risk of injury.
The present invention is to solve the problems described above, an embodiment of the present invention is installed in the seat back frame in the vehicle seat in the lumber support assembly for supporting the back and waist to reduce the fatigue of the occupant while driving the vehicle The fixed wire is installed on the seat back frame, the upper end is rotatably installed on the fixed wire and supports the back part of the occupant, and the fixed mat is installed on the fixed wire to rotate the lower end of the compact mat toward the back part of the occupant. Means, and the lifting means installed on the lower side of the fixed wire to move the lifting means along the fixed wire, it is easy to manufacture as a simple structure, the occupant can adjust the deformation of the compact mat to fit his body It is associated with a four-way lumber support assembly.
According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in the lumber support assembly installed on the seat back frame inside the vehicle seat to support the back and the waist to reduce the fatigue of the occupant while driving the vehicle, the fixed wire, the fixed wire is installed on the seat back frame The upper end is rotatably installed on the compact mat to support the back of the occupant, the fixed wire is installed on the rotating means for rotating the lower end of the compact mat toward the back of the occupant, and the lower side of the fixed wire is installed There is provided a four-way lumber support assembly comprising elevating means for elevating the pivoting means along a fixed wire.
Here, the rotation means includes a base plate which is slidably coupled to one side of the fixed wire, a spindle shaft that is axially rotatable in the transverse direction of the base plate, and a pair of spindles that are spaced apart from each other on the spindle shaft. A nut and a pair of support wires installed to face each other between the pair of spindle nuts and rotated at one end by a slide movement of the spindle nut.
At this time, the right hand thread and the left hand thread are symmetrically formed on the spindle axis.
In addition, it is preferable that the support wire has a 'c' shape in which an opening is formed at one side and a closing portion is formed at the other side.
In addition, both ends of the opening of the support wire are hinged to the protrusions protruding from each other on the upper and lower sides of the base plate, and the closing portion is formed by bending upward from the opening at a predetermined curvature.
At this time, it is preferable that the projection jaw is provided on the inside of the protrusion to limit the rotation of the support wire.
In addition, it is preferable that one side of the spindle nut is formed with a guide groove for supporting the outer circumferential surface of the support wire, respectively.
In addition, the lifting means includes a lifting motor installed on one side of the lower end of the fixed wire, and a drive shaft axially rotated by the lifting motor screwed to one side of the base plate.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, the lumber support assembly supports the back and waist of the occupant, thereby reducing fatigue of the occupant during long-term driving of the vehicle.
In addition, by elevating the rotation means according to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a four-way lumber support assembly that can adjust the deformation of the compact mat to fit the body of the occupant.
In addition, a four-way lumber support assembly is provided which is bent in the direction of the occupant seated on the seat of the vehicle, centered on the center of the compact mat corresponding to the vertebra of the occupant, and is in close contact with the back and waist of the occupant.
In addition, a four-way lumber support assembly is provided, which has a simple structure, which reduces manufacturing costs and time, thereby improving productivity.
