This application claims priority to Chinese patent application number 202222170041.8, filed on Aug. 17, 2022. Chinese patent application number 202222170041.8 is incorporated herein by reference.
The present disclosure relates to a rocking chair frame with an elastic device.
Conventional chairs in the existing techniques cannot make people relax, while rocking chairs can make people relax. For example, Chinese patent application number 201110415825.6 discloses an automatic rocking chair. A locking spring part comprises a shell, a side wall of the shell is disposed with a button, and a bottom of the shell is disposed with a push rod that can be ejected by pressing the button. The push rod can reset the button. In addition, each of a front end and a rear end of an arc-shaped base provided under the rocking chair is disposed with a spring, which can be seen from the accompanying drawings of Chinese patent application number 201110415825.6. The spring is directly exposed, which is prone to safety hazards. Moreover, the entire rocking chair is long in length and large in size.
For example, Chinese patent application number 202022591974.5 discloses a spring rocking chair. A fixed seat cooperates with a supporting frame, and the supporting frame comprises a front leg frame, a rear leg frame, and a backrest frame. A first connecting piece is connected to the front leg frame and the backrest frame, and a second connecting piece is connected to the rear leg frame and the backrest frame. A telescopic piece is matched and connected between the first connecting piece and the second connecting piece.

In this embodiment, referring to
The working principle of the rocking chair frame is described as follow.
In an initial state, the left foot pad 16 and the right foot pad 26 are flush with the bottom surface of the left lower frame 40 and the bottom surface of the right lower frame 50.
When a person sits on the rocking chair frame, a center of gravity of the person can be moved backward by the person slightly touching the ground with the feet of the person, which can drive the left side frame 10 and the right side frame 20 to rotate backward. Since the left housing 81 and the right housing 91 are supported by the left supporting rod 60 and the right supporting rod 70 respectively, the left housing 81 and the right housing 91 are relatively fixed. The left fixed piece 83 and the right fixed piece 93 move downward respectively under a drive of the left backrest rod 11 and a drive of the right backrest rod 21, so as to respectively enable the left spring 82 and the right spring 92 to be driven to move down to be compressed to store elastic potential energy.
Conversely, when the person's center of gravity moves frontward, the left side frame 10 and the right side frame 20 can be driven to rotate frontward, and the left fixed piece 83 and the right fixed piece 93 respectively move upward under the drive of the left backrest rod 11 and the drive of the right backrest rod 21, so as to respectively drive the left spring 82 and the right spring 92 to move upward to release the elastic potential energy and accelerate frontward movement of the left side frame 10 and the right side frame 20 to enable the left side frame 10 and the right side frame 20 to be reset to the initial state.
The entire rocking chair frame has a compact structure and good stability, is also short in length, small in size, and high in comfort. Moreover, the folding operation can be performed by folding the foldable cross frame 30, which is more convenient to use.
The aforementioned embodiments are merely some embodiments of the present disclosure, and the scope of the disclosure is not limited thereto. Thus, it is intended that the present disclosure cover any modifications and variations of the presently presented embodiments provided they are made without departing from the appended claims and the specification of the present disclosure.
