Description

Seat angle adjuster and seat with same
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of seat angle adjustment, in particular to a seat angle adjuster and a seat with the same.
Background
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural view of a typical seat.
As shown, a conventional seat includes a backrest 10 and a tub 20; in order to adapt to different requirements, the angle between the backrest 10 and the seat pan 20 can be adjusted appropriately during the use of the seat, especially for car seats, this function is usually achieved by means of a seat recliner 30'.
As shown in the figure, through the seat angle adjuster, the total adjustment angle between the seat back and the seat base is J, according to practical application requirements, some seats require that a certain range of the seat back and the seat base cannot be locked in the total adjustment angle range, that is, whether the unlocking handle is lifted or not, the seat back cannot be locked in the range, the angle in the range is called as a folding angle, J1 in the figure indicates the folding angle, and J2 indicates that the seat back can be locked in the angle range.
Referring to fig. 2 together, fig. 2 is an exploded view of a conventional seat recliner.
The seat recliner 30' includes a sheath 31, a ratchet 32, an unlocking cam 33, a slider 34, a locking cam 35, a center shaft 36, a return spring 37, and a slide plate 38.
Typically, the ratchet 32 of the seat recliner 30 is integral with the back rest 10 and the tongue plate 38 is integral with the bowl 20. The ratchet 32 is rotatable relative to the chute plate 38 to adjust the angle of the back rest 10 to the bowl 20.
The unlocking cam 33, the locking cam 35 and the return spring 37 all have a central hole for the central shaft 36 to penetrate, and can rotate under the drive of the central shaft 36, the locking cam 35 and the sliding block 34 are located on the same plane, the locking cam 35 is located in a middle groove of the sliding groove plate 38, the sliding block 34 is located in a sliding groove at the outer end of the sliding groove plate 38, and the sliding block 34 can only slide in the sliding groove in the radial direction.
During locking, the self-locking surface of the locking cam 35 is abutted against the self-locking surface of the sliding block 34, and the sliding block ratchet teeth at the outer end of the sliding block 34 are meshed with the ratchet teeth of the ratchet 32, so that the ratchet 32 cannot rotate relative to the chute plate 38, and the relative positions of the backrest 10 and the seat pan 20 of the seat are fixed; the locked state is maintained by the return spring 37.
When the central shaft 36 is unlocked and an external torque opposite to the return spring 37 is applied, the unlocking cam 33 rotates to drive the sliding block 34 to translate in the sliding groove towards the central shaft 36, and the sliding block ratchet and the ratchet are completely separated, at this time, the ratchet 32 can freely rotate relative to the center of the sliding groove plate 38, so that the angles of the backrest 10 and the seat basin 20 can be adjusted according to the needs.
The principle of the seat angle adjuster 30 for realizing the seat with the folding angle J1 is that a section of smooth surface is arranged on the tooth surface of the ratchet wheel 32, and in the range of the section of smooth surface, the sliding block and the ratchet wheel 32 cannot be meshed and cannot be locked, so that the folding function can be realized.
The seat recliner 30 has three sliders distributed at 120 ° between each slider, i.e. each slider has 17 teeth each for every 120 ° rotation of the ratchet wheel into the next cycle, and occupies 34 °, i.e. the sum of the folding angle J1 and the angle J2 at which the seat back can be locked, i.e. the total adjustment angle J is 120 ° -34 ° =86°.
In practical applications, a larger adjustment range of the folding angle of the seat is often required, and as calculated above, the folding angle J1 of the existing seat recliner 30 is only 86 ° (only one seat back can be locked at this time), so that the design cannot meet the requirement of a customer for a larger folding angle.
In order to achieve a larger design range of the folding angle J1, the seat angle adjuster is also provided with only two sliding blocks, but the thickness of the sliding blocks is large, so that the thickness of the sliding groove plates matched with the sliding blocks and the thickness of the ratchet wheels are large to accommodate the sliding blocks, the overall weight of the angle adjuster is increased, and the angle adjuster is not matched with the development requirement of light weight.
In view of this, it is a technical problem that a person skilled in the art needs to solve at present how to improve the structure of the existing seat recliner to effectively control the weight of the recliner on the basis of increasing the folding angle of the seat.

In order to better understand the aspects of the present invention, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and detailed description.
Referring to fig. 4 to 6, fig. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an embodiment of a seat recliner provided by the present invention; FIG. 5 is an exploded view of the seat recliner of FIG. 4 at an angle; FIG. 6 is an exploded view of the seat recliner of FIG. 4 at another angle; FIG. 7 is a schematic view of a seat recliner of the embodiment with the ratchet and unlocking cams removed; FIG. 8 is a schematic view of the ratchet of FIG. 4.
In this embodiment, the seat recliner 30 'includes a sheath 31', a ratchet 32', an unlocking cam 33', a slider, a locking cam 35', a central shaft 36', a return spring 37', and a pulley plate 38'.
Wherein, the unlocking cam 33', the locking cam 35' and the return spring 37' are sleeved on the central shaft 36', and the unlocking cam 33', the locking cam 35' and the central shaft 36' can synchronously rotate; the locking cam 35' is located in the central cavity of the chute plate 38', the slide block is located in the chute at the outer end of the chute plate 38', and the slide block can only translate radially in the chute.
The sliding block and the locking cam 35 'are provided with locking surfaces matched with each other, in the locking state, the locking surfaces of the sliding block are in contact with the locking surfaces of the locking cam 35', and the external teeth of the sliding block are meshed with the internal teeth of the ratchet wheel 32', so that the ratchet wheel 32' cannot rotate to lock the relative positions of the chair back and the chair seat; during unlocking, the unlocking cam 33 'and the locking cam 35' are synchronously rotated by rotating the central shaft 36', the unlocking cam 33' drives the sliding block to radially inwards translate, the locking cam 35 'simultaneously rotates to leave a moving space for the sliding block, the sliding block is disengaged from the ratchet wheel 32', and the ratchet wheel 32 'can rotate relative to the sliding groove plate 38', so that the angle between the chair back and the chair seat can be adjusted.
In this embodiment, the number of the sliding blocks is four, including two first sliding blocks 34a 'and two second sliding blocks 34b', and accordingly, four sliding grooves are uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction on the sliding groove plate 38', wherein the two first sliding blocks 34a', the two second sliding blocks 34b 'are symmetrical with respect to the center of the sliding groove plate 38', that is, the adjacent first sliding blocks 34a 'and second sliding blocks 34b' are arranged at 90 °.
The ratchet 32 'has two radially protruding sections 321' at its inner circumference such that two concave sections 322 'are formed between the protruding sections 321', and the protruding sections 321 'are symmetrical with respect to the center of the ratchet 32', that is, one protruding section 321 'is located at an angle of 180 ° to one concave section 322' adjacent thereto.
A protrusion 341b ' is provided on the second slider 34b ' such that, when the second slider 34b ' translates radially outwardly, the protrusion 341b ' can abut against the protrusion 321' to disable the second slider 34b ' from engaging the ratchet 32 '.
After the arrangement, when the seat angle adjuster 30' works, if the convex part 341b ' of the second sliding block 34b ' abuts against the convex section 321' of the ratchet wheel in the radial outward translation process of the sliding block, the second sliding block 34b ' cannot continue to translate radially outward under the limitation of the convex section 321' of the ratchet wheel 32', and is in a clamping state, so that the unlocking cam 33' driving the second sliding block 34b ' to translate cannot rotate, and correspondingly, the first sliding block 34a ' is also in a clamping state and cannot translate radially outward, so that the sliding block cannot be meshed with the ratchet wheel 32', and the folding function can be realized, that is, the angle range of the convex section 321' is the folding angle of the seat, and obviously, the convex section 321' can be set to be approximately 180 degrees according to the requirement, so that the seat has a larger folding angle to meet the use requirement; in addition, the seat recliner is provided with four sliders, and the thickness of each slider can be designed smaller, and accordingly, the thickness of the chute plate 38 'and the thickness of the ratchet wheel 32' can be designed smaller, so that the recliner has lighter weight. It can be seen that the seat recliner 30' is capable of effectively controlling the weight of the recliner on the basis of increasing the seat folding angle.
In a specific embodiment, when the convex portion 341b 'of the second slider 34b' abuts against the convex portion 321 'of the ratchet 32', a predetermined gap is maintained between the external teeth of the second slider 34b 'and the internal teeth of the ratchet 32'. In this way, the slide block and the ratchet wheel 32 'can not be meshed in the range of the protruding section 321' of the ratchet wheel 32', the situation that the slide block and the ratchet wheel 32' are meshed due to machining errors of parts is avoided, and the reliability of the angle adjuster is ensured.
Specifically, the predetermined gap may be set to 0.2mm or more; it will be appreciated that the predetermined gap may be flexibly set according to actual requirements.
In a specific embodiment, the second slider 34b 'is engaged with the ratchet 32', that is, when the ratchet 32 'rotates until the second slider 34b' is within the concave section 322', a predetermined gap is provided between the convex portion 341b' of the second slider 34b 'and the inner circumferential surface of the ratchet 32' between the two convex sections 321', that is, the concave section 322'. This is provided to ensure that the male portion 341b ' of the second slider 34b ' does not interfere with the female portion 322' of the ratchet 32' over the locking angle range, avoiding the inability to engage the slider with the ratchet 32' due to interference. The preset gap may be set according to the actual situation.
In a specific scheme, the number of teeth of the first sliding block 34a ' and the second sliding block 34b ' is 15-25, so that each sliding block has a proper number of teeth, compared with two sliding blocks or three sliding blocks in the background art, four sliding blocks are arranged in the scheme, the number of teeth of each sliding block is relatively smaller, the thickness of the sliding blocks can be reduced, but the total meshing number of teeth of all sliding blocks and the ratchet wheel 32' can still be ensured, so that the strength is ensured. More specifically, the number of teeth of each slider in this embodiment may be 21.
In a specific embodiment, the unlocking cam 33 'is configured to drive the slider to translate in the radial direction by matching the profiled hole 332' with the boss 342 'of the slider, wherein the specific structure of the profiled hole 332' is not a core point of the present invention, and reference is made to the prior art design.
That is, the first slider 34a 'and the second slider 34b' are provided with bosses 342', and obviously, the unlocking cam 33' is provided with four profiled holes 332 'to be respectively matched with the bosses 342' of the four sliders. Obviously, the projection 341b ' of the second slider 34b ' should be positioned outside the boss 342' so as to initially abut the projection 321' of the ratchet 32' when it moves radially outwardly.
Referring to fig. 2, in the conventional design, the return spring 37 is disposed on the inner side of the angle adjuster, that is, between the pulley plate 38 and the ratchet 32, a cavity for accommodating the return spring 37 needs to be formed in the middle of the pulley plate 38, and the cavity in the middle of the pulley plate 38 must also be designed with a larger diameter due to the larger diameter of the return spring 37, which results in a larger overall size of the angle adjuster, and does not meet the requirement of lightweight development. In addition, the outer hook of the return spring 37 needs to be fixedly connected with the chute plate 38 so that the return spring 37 can be compressed when the central shaft 36 rotates, and the existing design is to design a positioning hole on the chute plate 38, so that after the angle adjuster is immersed in the coating liquid, the coating liquid enters the angle adjuster from the positioning hole 382, and the performance of related parts is affected.
Therefore, the setting position of the return spring and the fixing way of the return spring and the chute plate are improved.
Referring to fig. 9 and fig. 10 together, fig. 9 is a schematic structural diagram of the return spring, the central shaft and the chute plate in the embodiment; fig. 10 is a partial enlarged view of the I-site in fig. 9.
In this embodiment, the return spring 37 'is disposed outside the runner plate 38', a protrusion is disposed outside the runner plate 38', a groove 384' is formed on the protrusion and opened toward the center of the runner plate 38', an outer hook 371' of the return spring 37 'is engaged with the groove 384', and the outer hook 371 'is interference fit with the groove 384'.
As described above, the return spring 37 'is arranged on the outer side of the sliding groove plate 38', the return spring 37 'does not occupy the internal space of the angle adjuster, and a concave cavity for accommodating the return spring 37' is prevented from being formed on the inner side of the sliding groove plate 38', so that the diameter of the sliding groove plate 38' can be designed smaller, the overall size of the angle adjuster is reduced, correspondingly, the weight is also reduced, the requirement of the light weight development of the seat is met, in addition, the material is saved due to the reduction of the overall size of the angle adjuster, and the cost is reduced; meanwhile, a protruding part is arranged on the outer side of the sliding groove plate 38', a groove 384' with an opening facing the center of the sliding groove plate 38 'is arranged on the protruding part, and an outer hook 371' of the return spring 37 'is clamped in the groove 384', so that the structure that a through hole is arranged on the sliding groove plate 38 'to be matched with the outer hook 371' is avoided, the influence of a coating liquid entering the angle adjuster on related parts is avoided, and the performance of the angle adjuster is guaranteed.
In a specific embodiment, the outer side of the chute plate 38' is provided with a plurality of protrusions 383' along the circumferential direction, and these protrusions 383' can be matched with the through holes of the seat coupling plate.
In the specific assembly, the chute plate 38 'and the seat coupling plate are first sleeved together by the cooperation of the protruding part 383' and the through hole, and then welded and fixed. That is, in a typical design, the pulley plate 38 'of the seat recliner is fixedly connected to the seat, and correspondingly, the ratchet wheel 32' is fixedly connected to the seat back, and the ratchet wheel 32 'and the pulley plate 38' are rotatable relative to each other to adjust the angle between the seat back and the seat.
In this way, the protruding portion of the recess 384' can be one of the plurality of protruding portions 383', so that the protruding portion can be prevented from being specially machined on the outer side of the runner 38', the machining steps can be simplified, and the machining cost can be reduced. Of course, it will be appreciated that it is also possible to provide separate protrusions to provide recesses for receiving return springs 37'.
It should be further noted that the structure in which four protrusions 383' are provided on the outer side of the runner plate 38' is exemplarily shown in the drawings, and it should be understood that the number of the protrusions 383' may be set according to actual matching requirements and conditions, and is not limited to the one shown in the drawings.
The interference fit between the outer hook 371 'and the groove 384' can be achieved in various ways, and the outer hook 371 'is slightly larger than the groove 384' in size, so that the outer hook 371 'is pressed into the groove 384' during assembly.
Specifically, the groove 384 'of the runner plate 38' includes an inner groove segment 3841 'and an outer groove segment 3842', the inner groove segment 3841 'being proximate the central axis 36'; the width of the outer channel segment 3842' tapers radially inwardly in the axial projection plane.
During the process of adjusting the angle between the back and the seat, the central shaft 36 'will compress the return spring 37', and the return spring 37 'will generate a pulling force towards the center direction, i.e. towards the central shaft 36' during the continuous compression, and the outer groove 3842 'of the groove 384' is designed into a structure with large outside and small inside, so as to block the outer hook 371', and simultaneously avoid pulling the return spring 37' out because of the interference fit between the outer hook 371 'and the groove 384'.
After the above design, the outer hook 371 'of the return spring 37' and the groove 384 'of the runner plate 38' can be assembled in the following manner; firstly, when the outer hook 371' of the return spring 37' is in an initial state of an equal-width structure matched with the inner groove section 3841', during assembly, the outer hook 371' extends into the outer groove section 3842' from the inner groove section 3841', then the outer hook 371' of the return spring 37' is pressed downwards by force to be flattened and deformed, and the whole groove 384' is filled, so that the structure shown in fig. 10 is formed, and the outer hook 371' of the return spring 37' can form interference fit with the groove 384' of the sliding groove plate 38', and the outer hook 371' of the return spring 37' is prevented from falling off.
