The present disclosure relates to a seat connecting device with an adjustable backrest, which belongs to the technical field of swivel chairs.
The swivel chair is a common office chair, which has the advantages of flexible rotation and flexible movement, and also has the function of convenient adjustment of the height of the chair seat, people can lean or lie down to rest after office work. This common swivel chair cannot meet people's needs because it does not have the function of an adjustable backrest. Therefore, the market urgently needs a chair capable of adjusting the tilt angle of the seat back.
The Chinese patent application with Publication No. CN10933798A discloses a wire control device for adjusting a tilt and tightness (elasticity) of the seat back frame. It includes a back frame tilt adjustment wire control device and a back frame tightness adjusting wire control device arranged in the seat. The back frame tilt adjustment wire control device includes a back frame connection tail plate for connecting the seat back frame, a tilt adjustment mechanism capable to be connected to the back frame connection tail plate, a tilt rope and a tilt adjusting handle. One end of the tilt rope is connected with the tilt adjustment mechanism, and the other end is connected with the tilt adjusting handle. The back frame tightness adjusting wire control device includes a tightness adjustment control rod, a first tightness rope, a second tightness rope and an elastic adjustment mechanism. One end of the first tightness rope is connected with the tightness adjustment control rod, and the other end is connected with the tightness adjusting mechanism. One end of the second tightness rope is connected with the tightness adjustment control rod, and the other end is connected with the tightness adjusting mechanism.
In this solution, since the back frame tightness adjusting wire control device mainly adjusts the tightness adjusting threaded rod through the elastic drawing, the tightness adjusting threaded rod itself has a strong pre-tightening force acting or reacting between the seat back and the seat, it needs to provide greater force to adjust it. The amount of force that the elastic drawing can provide is limited; this is not determined by the tensile strength of the elastic drawstring itself. In addition to the tensile strength of the elastic drawstring itself, the strength of the elasticity adjusting mechanism, the strength of the connection between the tightness adjusting mechanism and the elastic drawstring, etc. are also the factors. Usually the tightness adjusting mechanism itself is a more complicated mechanism. It is regulated by two-direction ropes that are wound on the lifter and rotated in two directions to make it rotate forward and backward. Then the required force is even greater, which further affects the adjustment of the tightness adjusting threaded rod of the back frame tightness adjusting wire control device.

The present disclosure has the following beneficial effects:
1. The adjustment of seat back tightness according to the present disclosure means the size of force required to adjust the seat back when people need to adjust the tilt angle of the seat back. For example, the larger the required force, the tighter the seat back; the smaller the required force, the looser the seat back. The required tightness of the seat back is related to the user's body type, so different users often need to adjust the tightness of the seat back appropriately. The present disclosure adopts the universal joint to replace the original draw rope for transmission, which improves the response timeliness of the force transmission of the product when adjusting the seat back elasticity; also improves the accuracy and controllability of the seat back elasticity adjustment. At the same time, relative to the use of pull-rope adjustment method, it also effectively improves the size of the force arm, improves the size of the force transmission of the product during adjustment, improves the demand for the size of the force transmission, reduces the force requirements for the user, and effectively reduces the possibility of damage to the adjustment mechanism due to excessive input force when the product is adjusted, thereby increasing the service life of the product.
2. The seat back tilt adjustment of the present disclosure means the adjustment of the tilt angle of the seat back when people use the chair; and the seat back tilt control assembly of the present disclosure means the assembly that controls the tilt adjustment of the seat back, that is, controls whether the seat back can be adjusted. When the seat back is in a non-adjusting state, it can also determine what tilt angle the seat back is in. The present disclosure uses a connecting plate with a plurality of rows of holes, a tilt adjuster, a tilt rope and a tilt adjusting handle to perform tilt control and adjustment of the seat back, which is different from the above-mentioned seat back tightness control assembly that needs to be adjusted by a larger driving force. The seat back tilt control assembly is equivalent to being a control switch, and it can be controlled with only a small force, so it adopts the tilt rope as a control medium. The structure is simple, with convenient use;
3. The lifting adjustment of the present disclosure means the adjustment of the height of the seat when people use the chair. The lifting adjustment of the present disclosure is implemented on the basis of the use of gas springs; the lifting rope is controlled by the lifting handle, and then the gas spring paddle is controlled. Whether the gas spring paddle presses the control point of the gas spring or not, usually external force is used to adjust the extension of the movable part of the gas spring. Similarly, the lifting adjust assembly according to the present disclosure is equivalent to exist as a control switch, which can be controlled with only a small force, so the lifting rope is used as the control medium, which has the characteristics of simple structure and convenient use;
4. The seat adjustment of the present disclosure means the adjustment of the amount of extension of the seat in the horizontal direction with reference to the direction directly in front of the user when people use the chair. This adjustment also has a greater impact on the comfort of the chair. If the user is a child, a smaller extension is usually required; if the user is an adult, a larger extension is usually required. In the present disclosure, a control handwheel, a transmission bar, and a regulating gear and the regulating rack are adopt to adjust the extension of the seat, and to limit the rotation direction of the control handwheel through the limit housing, so that the control handwheel will not rotate due to accidental touch when in a non-adjusting state. When adjustment is required, the control handwheel is pulled out slightly to release the limit of the control handwheel by the limit housing. At this time, the extension of the chair seat can be adjusted by turning the control handwheel. In order to prevent the control handwheel from being pulled out into an adjustable state due to accidental touch when the control handwheel is in the non-adjusting state, the present disclosure also sets up a structure of a positioning steel ball, a positioning spring and a steel ball guide sleeve. The control handwheel can be prevented from being pulled out due to accidental touch by that the positioning section inside the control handwheel is elastically pressed against by the positioning steel ball.
