Definitions
- This invention is in the field of actuators for moving components of seats and furniture, especially ergonomic supports such as lumbar supports, and most particularly when installed in automobile seats.
- movable ergonomic supports such as lumbar supports. Whether these supports move by bending or sliding, it is common for the movement to be produced by traction.
- a commonly used device for applying traction to movable ergonomic support parts is a traction cable, such as Bowden cable.
- Such cables have a sleeve or conduit having a wire inside the sleeve and disposed to slide axially through it. These cables are installed so that one sleeve end is connected to one portion of an ergonomic support and the wire end is connected to another portion.
- the present invention is a silent actuator combining a lower locking clutch with an upper drive assembly including a cam, at least one locking roller and at least one homing spring.
- An actuator for a traction device comprising has a locking clutch adapted for operative communication with a traction device. It has a drive disc having drive tabs. The drive tabs project axially into driving engagement with the locking clutch.
- the drive disc has a seat with an inner face.
- a drive shaft with a cam having an outer face is disposed within the seat of the drive disc such that said outer face of the cam and the inner face of the seat define a first constricting channel and a second constricting channel.
- the cam further has a projection. Locking rollers are disposed within the constricting channels.
- a fixed stop is disposed between the cam outer face and the inner face of said seat and between the first locking roller and the second locking roller.
- Springs are disposed in the constricting channels between the locking rollers and the projection.
- Figure 1 is an exploded view from an upper perspective
- Figure 2 is an exploded view from a lower perspective
- Figure 3 is a perspective view of a partially disassembled actuator
- Figure 4 is a top view of a driveshaft
- Figure 5 is a side view of a driveshaft
- Figure 6 is an isometric view of a drive disc
- Figure 7 is another isometric view of the drive disc.
- FIG. 1 is an exploded view of the actuator of the present invention from an upper perspective.
- the actuator includes a housing bottom 10 and a housing top 20.
- the housing bottom 10 includes a seat 14 for installation of the moving components of the actuator described below.
- the housing bottom 10 also includes a slot 12, preferably key hole shaped, for assembly of the actuator with a traction cable and insertion of a traction cable wire (not shown) into the actuator assembly.
- the housing bottom 10 finally includes a seat 16 for a traction cable sleeve end. Other traction devices, such as rods, may be actuated as well.
- a Bowden traction cable is assembled with a lower pulley 40.
- the pulley 40 has a channel seat 44 for a Bowden cable wire and a Bowden cable wire end bullet mount 42.
- the wire is drawn from the traction cable and slid into slot 12.
- the wire has a bullet or other wide ending for this mounting. This is slid through the wide key hole portion of the slot 12 and installed in the mounting slot 42 of the pulley 40.
- the wire is seated in the channel 44.
- the traction cable sleeve is seated in the sleeve end seat 16. When the pulley 40 is turned, in the counterclockwise direction in the depicted embodiment, the traction cable wire will be drawn from the traction cable sleeve.
- the pulley 40 is seated in the housing bottom 10.
- Part of the silent actuator of the present invention is a locking clutch or brake assembly 30.
- the components of the locking clutch include a ring 32, a hub 34, clutch locking rollers 36 and clutch springs 38.
- clutch springs 38 are rubber grommets that are cylindrical in shape.
- the hub 34 includes an eccentric or cam shaped surface. In the depicted embodiment, there are three such surfaces, separated by tabs or bosses 35. While three bosses are shown, any number of bosses 35 are equivalent. The top of these bosses 35 comprise an outer radius of the hub 34, which is disposed in rotating, sliding cooperation with an inner surface of the ring 32.
- the edge of the hub 34 between the bosses 35 has a radial distance from the center of the hub 34 that is less than the outer or top surface of the bosses 35.
- the hub 34 and the ring 32 are assembled on the same plane. As assembled, this inner surface of the edge of the hub 34 combines with the inner surface of the ring 32 to form spaces. Disposed within these spaces are the rubber grommets 38, the steel rollers 36, and downward protruding fingers 52 of a drive disk 50.
- the edge of the hub 34 is preferably arcuate, but may be generally flat, provided that the space it defines when assembled with the ring 32 is a constricting channel. In the depicted embodiment, there are three constricting channels. Alternatively, the inner surface of the ring 32 may be eccentric.
- the spaces are narrower at their counterclockwise extremity than they are at their clockwise extremity.
- the rubber grommets 38 are disposed at the extreme clockwise extremity of the spaces where, preferably, it seats into a corresponding convexity in the side wall of bosses 35. Proceeding along each space in a counter-clockwise direction, after the rubber grommets 38, the steel rollers 36 are disposed within the spaces followed by the fingers 52 of the drive disk 50. At its clockwise extremity, the spaces are wider in the radial direction than the diameter of either the steel rollers 36 or the rubber grommets 38.
- the hub 34 can be freely moved in a counter-clockwise direction.
- the spaces are radially narrower than the diameter of the steel rollers 36 at the counter-clockwise extremity of each space. Accordingly, if the hub 34 is rotated in a clockwise direction, at some point between the clockwise extremity of the space and the counter-clockwise extremity of the space, the steel roller 36 will become unable to fit between the inner surface edge of the hub 34 and the inner surface of the ring 32. At that point the steel roller 36 will jam or "lock” and prevent further rotation of the hub 34, as well as all components attached to it, specifically the pulley 40, from proceeding any further in the clockwise direction. This is the locking feature of the clutch assembly 30.
- the point at which the roller 36 locks may be anywhere between the grommet 38 and the drive disk finger 52. Preferably, the locking point is close to the free or resting position of the roller 36 as depicted in order that the clutch 30 have a quick locking response and little "play.”
- the rubber grommets 38 are disposed between the bosses 35 and the steel rollers 36. Their purpose is to act as a spring, biasing the steel rollers 36 towards that point in the space at which they lock and prevent further rotation of the hub 34. This biasing prevents an undesirable back rotation of the assembly. Biasing the steel rollers 36 to a point at or near where they lock also minimizes back rotation or "play" after a drive rotation.
- the rubber grommets 38 are preferred as springs, coil, leaf or other types of springs would be equivalent alternatives.
- the rubber grommets 38 and the steel rollers 36 are preferably cylindrical although other shapes, such as ball bearings, would be equivalent alternatives.
- the drive tabs 52 are turned, counterclockwise from above in the depicted embodiment, to push the tabs 35 to move the assembly towards the position to be selected by a user, and against the tension of the traction cable attached to the ergonomic support.
- the rubber grommet 38 and the locking roller 36 then being in the wide portion of the constricted channel, simply follow.
- Turning the hub 34 also turns the pulley 40 which is coaxially and co-rotating assembled with the hub 34. Accordingly, turning the pulley 40 applies traction to a traction cable wire, pulling it out of the end of a traction cable sleeve (not shown) which is mounted in a sleeve mount 16. After a selected position has been reached, a user releases pressure applied to a drive shaft 60. Thereafter, a return pressure is exerted on the hub 34 by the tension put on the Bowden cable wire by the user's weight on the support. However, this reverse homing tension causes the locking rollers 36 to advance into the narrow part of the constricting channel where they lock and hold the selected position.
- a return to an original or home position of the ergonomic support is achieved by releasing the locking clutch assembly 30 by rotating tabs 52 against the clutch locking rollers 36 in order to push them into the wide part of the constricting channel between the hub 34 and the ring 32.
- the upper silent drive assembly is comprised of the drive force transfer disc 50, the drive shaft 60, locking rollers 70 and springs 80.
- the drive shaft 60 includes a finned portion 62 which proceeds through a hole 22 in the upper housing 20. This upwards extension becomes a mount for a lever or wheel (not shown) which a seat occupant will use to apply force to the assembly for adjusting his or her lumbar support.
- the drive shaft 60 also includes a lower extension 64 which proceeds through a hole in the disc 50 downwards through pulley 40 and a coaxial hole in the lower housing unit 10.
- a recess, preferably threaded, in the lower extension 64 will receive a screw, bolt, rivet or other fixation device 24 for holding the entire assembly together.
- the drive shaft 60 has a cam 66.
- the cam 66 is on the same plane as the ring 50.
- the ring 50 includes a seat 54 for receiving, again on the same plane, the locking rollers 70, the cam 66, the springs 80 and a stop 26 (best seen on figure 2).
- the stop 26 is fixedly attached to or integrally formed with, as by molding, the upper housing 20.
- any of the components may be metal or plastic.
- the drive disc 50 and the locking rollers 70 are metal, and the other components are plastic.
- the cam 66 is thickest at a position in line with the stop 26 and between the locking rollers 70 A and 70B. That is, the outer surface of the cam 66, together with an inner wall 56 of the seat 54, form constricting channels in which the locking rollers 70 operate.
- two bilateral constricting channels are shown, although fabrication or assembly that yields only one, or more than two, constricting channels, is within the scope of the present invention.
- the channel constricts to a narrow portion substantially corresponding to and in registry with the tab 26.
- the constricting channel widens, bilaterally in the depicted embodiment, as it progresses towards the position in which the rollers 70 are disposed and onwards to that portion of the channel in which the springs 80 are disposed.
- Alternative embodiments also considered to be within the scope of the present invention would include an eccentrically shaped inner surface of the vertical face 56 of the seat 54 combined with a circular outer surface of the cam 66. Any such configuration forming constricting channels when assembled are within the scope of the present invention.
- Substantially opposite of the stop 26 is a passive roller 72.
- the passive roller 72 acts to stabilize the assembly and smooth its operation.
- the passive roller 72 is held in place with projections 68. This pair of projections 68 serve two purposes.
- the passive roller 72 is seated.
- All three rollers may be cylindrical or spherical.
- the locking rollers 70 may be other shapes, such as wedges, provided they comprise an element that locks motion of the cam 66 and the disc 50.
- a user turns a lever or wheel (not shown) in order to turn the drive shaft 60. Because the drive shaft 60 is not directly or fixedly attached to the disc 50 or the hub 34, the transfer of the user applied driving force is only applied through the assembly of the cam 66, the locking rollers 70 and the drive disc 50.
- the cam 66 will first rotate until its wide portion comes into contact with the locking roller 70A.
- the locking roller 70A will then be constricted between the cam 66 and the vertical face 56 of the ring 50 and lock. Thereafter, the cam 66, the locking roller 70A and the ring 50 will turn in unison.
- integrally formed vertical tabs 52 on the ring 50 will also turn. Turning tabs 52 has the effect of also turning the lower locking clutch, the hub 34 and the pulley 40, in the manner previously described. Consequently, the traction cable wire is drawn from the traction sleeve and the tractive force is transferred to the ergonomic device, actuating it.
- the opposite locking roller 70B is restrained from turning in a counterclockwise direction with the rest of the assembly by the stop 26.
- the stop 26 is fixed in place. In the depicted embodiment, it is a part of the upper housing 20, which is fixed.
- the spring 80B is compressed between the locking roller 70B and the projection 68. While the user turns the lever, there is sufficient force to compress the spring 80B through a substantial range, approaching 180 degrees.
- the actuator will usually need to be turned several times in order to put the ergonomic device that it actuates through a full range of motion.
- the user may stop turning the device at any time when a selected comfortable position is reached.
- the user stops turning either because he has reached his selected position, or because the drive shaft 60 is turned as far it can go, the user will release the lever.
- the compressed spring 80B will exert its expansive force between the locking roller 80B and the projection 68.
- the expanding force of spring 80B will act on projection 68 in order to turn the cam 66 and the drive shaft 60 in a cloclcwise direction back to its home position.
- the ring 50 will be held in its position by the previously described action of the locking clutch assembly 30.
- a return to an original or home position of the ergonomic support is achieved by releasing the locking clutch assembly 30 by rotating the tabs 52 against the clutch locking rollers 36 in order to push them into the wide part of the constricting channel between the hub 34 and the ring 32. Consequently, the upper drive assembly must turn the ring 50 in a return direction, which in the depicted configuration is clockwise, viewed from above. In order to do so, the user simply turns the lever in the opposite direction, clockwise.
- the depicted embodiment is bilaterally symmetrical. Therefore, the operation is the same, but reversed. Clockwise rotation of the cam 66 engages the locking roller 70B and through it also engages the vertical face 56 of the drive disc 50, turning it clockwise.
- the stop 26 will hold the locking roller 70A in place and the spring 80A will be compressed between the projection 68 and the locking roller 70A.
- the user will release the handle and the spring 80A will expand between the locking roller 70A and the projection 68 in order to turn the drive shaft 62 back to a home position.
- This movement is not restricted by the locking roller 70B, because rotation of the cam 66 in that direction will bias the locking roller 70B towards the wider part of the channel between the cam 66 and the vertical face 56, allowing it to move.
- One of the several advantages of the present invention is that the drive apparatus is silent.
