Description
本發明係有關於一種適臀椅,尤指一種能獨立自動依照臀部兩半側大小之不同而調整高度,以形成有效且舒適的支撐者。 The present invention relates to a hip-fitting chair, in particular to a chair that can independently and automatically adjust the height according to the size of the two halves of the buttocks to form an effective and comfortable support.
人體在站立時,其全身之體重支撐在足部;在坐下時,整個上半身之體重支撐則在於骨盆。骨盆和足部猶如建築物之地基,如果地基不穩固,整個建築物即容易傾倒。而當人體之骨盆左右不對稱而通常顯現在梨形臀部之兩半側大小不一致時,坐下時之骨盆額狀面或左右會傾斜,並由於左右不對稱之座面機械應力,讓頸、胸、腰、臀之脊椎會隨著傾斜,造成脊椎的肌肉過度使用,進而產生頸肩臂、胸背廓或腰臀腿部位之酸痛或不適。 When the human body is standing, its body weight is supported on the feet; when sitting down, the weight of the entire upper body is supported by the pelvis. The pelvis and feet are like the foundation of a building. If the foundation is not stable, the entire building will easily fall. When the human body’s pelvis is asymmetrical and usually appears on the two halves of the pear-shaped buttocks, the frontal or left and right sides of the pelvis will tilt when sitting down. The spine of the thoracic, waist, and buttocks will be tilted, causing excessive use of the muscles of the spine, resulting in soreness or discomfort in the neck, shoulder, arm, chest and back, or waist, hip and leg.
針對上述骨盆左右不對稱的病理結構,目前在業界即有人提出一種解決方案,以應用於一般座椅及辦公椅上,其包含一椅墊本體、一第一調整部以及一第二調整部。椅墊本體內部具有一調整空間;第一調整部設於調整空間內的右半部,椅墊本體外側邊並設有第一控制器,第一控制器連接第一調整部,供調整控制第一調整部上、下的位置;第二調整部設於調整空間內的左半部,椅墊本體外側邊設有第二控制器,第二控制器連接第二調整部,供調整控制第二調整部上、下的位置。藉以依照不同使用者的骨盆高度調整最適合的椅墊高度,讓骨盆以上的脊椎保持平衡直 立,以減少肌肉疲勞。 In view of the above-mentioned asymmetry pathological structure of the pelvis, some people in the industry have proposed a solution to be applied to general chairs and office chairs, which includes a cushion body, a first adjustment part, and a second adjustment part. There is an adjustment space inside the seat cushion body; the first adjustment part is arranged in the right half of the adjustment space, the outer side of the seat cushion body is provided with a first controller, and the first controller is connected to the first adjustment part for adjustment Control the up and down positions of the first adjustment part; the second adjustment part is located in the left half of the adjustment space, the outer side of the cushion body is provided with a second controller, and the second controller is connected to the second adjustment part for adjustment Control the upper and lower positions of the second adjustment part. By adjusting the most suitable chair cushion height according to the pelvic height of different users, the spine above the pelvis can be balanced and straight. Stand to reduce muscle fatigue.
惟,前途方案之椅墊本體係為一體式之坐墊,當第一調整部與第二調整部具有上下位置的高度差異,而人體之臀部兩半分別壓住第一、第二調整部時,椅墊本體之頂面即會形成緊繃之狀態而向上抵壓住人體之尾骨,造成尾骨之壓力。再者,該第一調整部及第二調整部係以軌道結構、油壓結構、氣壓結構或是其他常見的結構所驅動以產生固定的高度差異,亦即,該方案在使用之前必須先針對使用者之骨盆傾斜狀態先進行量測,才能準確的進行高度調整作業,如此一來,不但會增加結構製造成本,且會造成使用上之不便。有鑑於此,為了提供一種有別於習用技術之結構,並改善上述之缺點,發明人積多年的經驗及不斷的研發改進,遂有本發明之產生。 However, the chair cushion of the future plan is an integrated cushion. When the first adjustment part and the second adjustment part have a height difference between the upper and lower positions, and the two halves of the human body press the first and second adjustment parts respectively, The top surface of the chair cushion body will form a tight state and press up against the tailbone of the human body, causing pressure on the tailbone. Furthermore, the first adjustment part and the second adjustment part are driven by a rail structure, a hydraulic structure, a pneumatic structure or other common structures to produce a fixed height difference, that is, the solution must be targeted before use The user's pelvic inclination state can be measured first before the height adjustment can be accurately performed. This will not only increase the manufacturing cost of the structure, but also cause inconvenience in use. In view of this, in order to provide a structure that is different from the conventional technology and improve the above-mentioned shortcomings, the inventor has accumulated many years of experience and continuous research and development improvements, and thus the present invention was born.
本發明之一目的在提供一種適臀椅,俾能解決習用椅墊本體在形成兩側不同高度支撐之後,對人體之尾骨造成壓力,並在安裝驅動結構之後而會增加結構製造成本,並造成使用上不便的問題,而能自動形成有效且舒適的支撐結構,並降低生產成本、方便使用。 One of the objectives of the present invention is to provide a hip chair that can solve the problem of pressure on the tailbone of the human body after the conventional chair cushion body is supported at different heights on both sides, and will increase the manufacturing cost of the structure after the drive structure is installed, and cause The problem of inconvenience in use can automatically form an effective and comfortable support structure, reduce production costs, and facilitate use.

The first
而第二彈性件5係包括二個壓縮彈簧,二個壓縮彈簧之頂部分別向上容納於右墊部32底面之二個第二定位孔322內,二個壓縮彈簧之底部分別向下套接二個第二定位柱23,藉以讓第二彈性件5定位於支架2的框形坐墊板21內,並連結於右墊部32之下方,供使用者之臀部右半側坐於右墊部32之第二區域321上時,讓右墊部32向下移動,並在壓力消失之後回復原位。實施時,第二彈性件5亦可為壓縮後可以回復原狀之高密度泡棉,高密度泡棉直接結合於右墊部32之底面。
The second
藉此,如第4圖所示,當使用者臀部之左半側小於右半側,且使用者臀部之左、右半側分別坐在左墊部31之第一區域311與右墊部32之第二區域321上方時,即可經由第一彈性件4及第二彈性件5自動調整下壓的距離,讓左墊部31之高度大於右墊部32之高度在大約1mm至15mm之間,從而使不同大小之臀部兩半側能夠分別形成不同應力而相同負重之支撐,以
維持脊椎的平衡直立及軀幹之左右負荷相同。
Thereby, as shown in Figure 4, when the left half of the user’s buttocks is smaller than the right half, and the left and right halves of the user’s buttocks are seated in the
請參閱第5圖所示,其為本創作適臀椅1之第二實施例,其與第一實施例不同之處在於:左墊部31與右墊部32之中間位置具有一撓性連接部33,撓性連接部33之頂面低於左墊部31頂面之第一區域311與右墊部32頂面之第二區域321,以形成一長條形凹槽331,藉以在使用者之臀部左、右兩半側分別坐在左墊部31之第一區域311與右墊部32之第二區域321上方時,可以讓脊椎下端的尾骨端部能夠容納在凹槽331內,以避免對尾骨造成壓力。
Please refer to Figure 5, which is the second embodiment of the
因此,本發明具有以下之優點: Therefore, the present invention has the following advantages:
1、本發明之左墊部與右墊部在一般沒有受力的情況下係為等高之狀態,可以讓具有相同大小臀部兩半側之使用者舒適的乘坐,而對於具有不同大小臀部兩半側之使用者而言,則可以經由第一彈性件及第二彈性件之彈性支撐作用,形成左、右不對稱高度之坐墊,以分別對骨盆額狀面形成不同應力而相同負重之支撐,因此,可以有效維持使用者脊椎的平衡直立及軀幹之左右負荷相同。 1. The left pad portion and the right pad portion of the present invention are in a state of equal height when there is generally no force, so that users with the same size of the hip halves can ride comfortably, and for the two hips of different sizes For the half of the user, the elastic support of the first elastic element and the second elastic element can form a cushion with asymmetrical height on the left and right to form different stresses on the frontal surface of the pelvis and support the same load. Therefore, the balance and erection of the spine of the user can be effectively maintained and the left and right loads of the trunk are the same.
2、本發明之左墊部與右墊部之中間位置具有一長條形凹槽,可以形成一個足夠大小之空間以容納尾骨端部,因此,當使用者之臀部兩半側分別坐在左墊部與右墊部之上方時,可以有效避免對尾骨造成壓力傷害。 2. The middle position of the left cushion part and the right cushion part of the present invention has a long strip groove, which can form a space of sufficient size to accommodate the end of the tailbone. Therefore, when the user’s buttocks sit on the left side respectively When the cushion is above the right cushion, it can effectively avoid pressure damage to the tailbone.
綜上所述,依上文所揭示之內容,本發明確可達到預期之目的,提供一種不僅能獨立自動調整下陷距離,使對使用者之不同大小臀部兩半側分別形成有效且舒適的支撐,且能有效避免對尾骨造成壓力傷害之適臀椅,極具產業上利用之價值,爰依法提出發明專利申請。 In summary, based on the content disclosed above, the present invention can clearly achieve the expected purpose, providing a method that can not only independently adjust the sinking distance, but also form an effective and comfortable support for the two halves of the user's hips of different sizes. , And can effectively avoid pressure damage to the coccyx, the hip chair is of great value for industrial use. Yan filed an invention patent application in accordance with the law.
