The invention relates to the technical field of furniture, in particular to a sofa seat frame, a sofa base assembly, a sofa and a sofa production and assembly process.
As we all know, the furniture industry has always been a labor-intensive traditional industry, especially the sofa industry. Its production process requires a lot of manual labor and production materials. For the sofa, the bearing capacity of the sofa determines the service life of the sofa, while the sofa base assembly determines the bearing capacity of the sofa to a large extent. At present, the sofa base assembly is generally composed of a rack and a sofa seat frame detachably connected to the rack.
Among them, sofa seat frames made of solid wood are the most common. When a wooden seat frame is made, a framework is first set up with solid wood in a wood factory, and hooks for connecting supporting elastic pieces are installed on the wooden framework, and the hooks are fixed on the wooden framework by means of rivets or screws, etc. After the wooden framework is made, the framework is transported to a sofa assembly workshop. In the sofa assembly workshop, the supporting elastic pieces are installed on the wooden framework to obtain the wooden seat frame. Subsequently, the wooden seat frame and the wooden or iron rack are assembled to obtain a sofa base assembly; then the seat cushion is placed on the supporting elastic pieces and is wrapped with sofa fabric, and the fabric is fixed to the wooden seat frame by rivets, thus completing the assembly of the seat cushion part. Therefore, the sofa seat frame made of a solid wood material is not only light in weight but also easy to process, since the sofa can be assembled by a traditional manual production line, the sofa seat frame made of the solid wood material is suitable for sofa production technology in traditional furniture industry.
However, the sofa seat frame made of the solid wood material has the following defects: first, the supporting strength of the wooden seat frame is not enough, so that the wooden seat frame is easy to damage after being used for a period of time and has a short service life; second, due to the material reason, the wood needs to be tested in import and export trade, and when single pieces that do not meet the requirements are found during sampling inspection, the whole batch needs to be stranded or repatriated, which is not conducive to international trade; third, the connection process between the wooden seat frame and the iron rack is complicated and the connection stability is poor; fourth, due to the different materials of the wooden seat frame and the iron rack, they need to be produced in different workshops, which not only has a higher cost, but also increases the transportation distance, resulting in low installation efficiency; fifth, rivets are usually used to connect the seat cushion fabric and the wooden frame, so that the fault tolerance rate is low, if there is an assembly error, it is difficult to rework, thus causing waste of a large amount of materials; and sixth, there are many manual manufacturing processes for the wooden seat frame, which is not conducive to standardized production and has difficulty in maintaining the unity of sofa quality.
In view of various defects of the wooden seat frame, some powerful furniture enterprises have begun to try to use metal materials to make the sofa seat frame. Compared with the wooden seat frame, a sofa seat frame made of a metal material has higher supporting strength and a longer service life. However, at present, the metal seat frame on the market still has the problems of complex structure, many parts and troublesome assembly. As disclosed in a Comparative Document 1 (Publication Number: CN110101245A), the frame comprises two symmetrically arranged longitudinal beams and two cross beams for connecting the two longitudinal beams. The cross section of the longitudinal beam is L-shaped and comprises a vertical plate and a transverse plate, wherein the vertical plate and the transverse plate define a containing cavity, and the two cross beams are symmetrically arranged on the folded edges at two ends of the longitudinal beam and are located in the containing cavity. In addition, the frame also comprises at least one supporting beam which connects the two cross beams. Although the sofa seat frame in the Comparative Document 1 reduces the manufacturing materials and weight, it has more parts and is troublesome to assemble. At the same time, the longitudinal beam with the L-shaped cross section not only has low supporting strength, but also is prone to deformation. In addition, since a containing cavity is defined by the vertical plate and the horizontal plate on the longitudinal beam, when the seat cushion is placed on the sofa seat frame, the two sides of the seat cushion are not supported correspondingly. When the seat cushion is squeezed, the two sides are easy to collapse, so it is also necessary to process the sponges on the two sides of the seat cushion, which not only wastes materials but also increases the processing procedures. Finally, the seat cushion fabric cannot be directly connected with the metal seat frame by riveting with rivets, which is more troublesome.
In addition, the connection mode between the metal seat frame and the rack currently on the market also has the problems of insufficient supporting strength and the like. As disclosed in a Comparative Document 2 (Publication Number: CN101879014A), a sofa frame convenient for disassembly and assembly and small in transportation volume is disclosed, wherein a seat frame in the sofa frame is provided with a connecting slot, and a first rack body and a second rack body in the sofa frame are respectively provided with positioning clamping slots. In addition, the sofa frame also comprises a clamping and fixing unit, and the two ends of the clamping and fixing unit are respectively clamped in the positioning clamping slots of the first rack body and the second rack body and the connecting slot of the seat frame so as to realize the connection of the seat frame with the first rack body and the second rack body. Although the sofa frame in the Comparative Document 2 does not adopt threaded or complicated connection structures, and can be easily assembled and disassembled without any assembly tools with relatively high efficiency, the buckling clamping method is adopted, the force bearing mode between the seat frame and the rack is point-to-point or line-to-line, and the acting force at the joint is relatively large. At the same time, the supporting strength given by the rack body to the seat frame is also low, and damage is easy to occur.
To sum up, there are still many problems in the sofa seat frames made of metal materials on the market. Therefore, in order to adapt to the globalized furniture market, it is necessary to adjust the sofa industry chain and improve the structure and technology of the sofa seat frame, the sofa base assembly and the sofa so as to control the quality and production cost of the sofa and realize the standardized and automatic production of the sofa.
In order to overcome the at least one defect in the prior art, the invention provides a sofa seat frame, a sofa base assembly, a sofa and a sofa production and assembly process.
The technical solution adopted by the invention to solve the above problem is as follows:
a first aspect of the invention provides a sofa seat frame which comprises two cross beams arranged at intervals and two longitudinal beams connecting the two cross beams, wherein:
a plurality of supporting elastic pieces are arranged between the two cross beams; and
each longitudinal beam comprises a first supporting plate for supporting a seat cushion and a first side plate arranged at one side of the lower part of the first supporting plate and used for being detachably connected with sofa fabric on a seat cushion.
According to the sofa seat frame provided in the first aspect of the invention, a supporting structure for supporting the seat cushion can be formed by the plurality of supporting elastic pieces arranged between the two cross beams. As each longitudinal beam is provided with the first supporting plate, when the seat cushion is placed on the supporting structure, the first supporting plates can also give a certain supporting force to the seat cushion, thus improving the sitting comfort of users. In addition, when the sofa fabric is assembled, it is only necessary to install a clamping strip at the edge of the sofa fabric, and then clamp the clamping strip with the lower edges of the first side plates of the longitudinal beams to fix the sofa fabric on the seat cushion to the sofa seat frame. The process is simple and convenient, not only improves the installation efficiency, but also facilitates disassembly, has a high fault tolerance rate and cannot cause material waste.
Further, each longitudinal beam is a metal piece and comprises the first side plate, a second side plate arranged at a distance from the first side plate and located on the other side of the lower part of the first supporting plate, and the first supporting plate connecting the first side plate with the second side plate from the top of the first side plate and the top of the second side plate.
Therefore, by arranging the second side plates, not only is the overall structure of the longitudinal beams stabler, but also the firmness of the connection with the cross beams and a bottom rack is improved, thus improving the overall stability of the sofa seat frame and increasing the supporting strength of the sofa seat frame.
Further, the sofa seat frame also comprises first connecting pieces for connecting a sofa rack, each first connecting piece comprising two fifth side plates arranged at intervals and a third supporting plate connecting the bottoms of the two fifth side plates, wherein:
the third supporting plate is connected with the sofa rack; and
one fifth side plate is connected to the first side plate of the longitudinal beam, and the other fifth side plate is connected to the second side plate of the longitudinal beam.
Therefore, by arranging the plurality of first connecting pieces on the sofa seat frame, the installation efficiency between the sofa seat frame and the sofa rack can be improved. In addition, as each first connecting piece is provided with the third supporting plate, the supporting area of the joint between the sofa seat frame and the sofa rack is increased, the supporting strength of the sofa rack to the sofa seat frame is further improved, and the sofa seat frame is stabler and firmer.
Further, the third supporting plate and the two fifth side plates are integrally formed by bending, and are U-shaped.
Therefore, the first connecting piece integrally formed by bending has higher supporting strength and is convenient to process. In addition, the first connecting piece is arranged in a U shape, which not only makes the structure of the first connecting piece stabler, but also has higher connection stability with the sofa rack due to the flat bottom, thus further improving the supporting strength of the sofa rack to the sofa seat frame.
Further, the first side plate, the second side plate and the first supporting plate are integrally formed by bending, and are inverted U-shaped.
Therefore, the longitudinal beam integrally formed by bending has higher supporting strength and is convenient to process. In addition, the longitudinal beam is arranged in an inverted U shape, so that the structure of the longitudinal beam is stabler and the supporting strength is higher, thus improving the overall supporting strength of the sofa seat frame.
Further, the first supporting plate is provided with a reinforcing rib.
Therefore, the arranged reinforcing rib can enhance the strength of the longitudinal beam and make the structure of the longitudinal beam stabler.
Further, the two cross beams are each provided with a plurality of hooks integrally formed by stamping; one ends of the supporting elastic pieces are connected to the hooks on one cross beam, and the other ends of the supporting elastic pieces are connected to the corresponding hooks on the other cross beam.
Therefore, the hooks formed by stamping have higher strength than the existing hooks welded or connected to a cross beam through other forms, and are less likely to be damaged under the pulling action of the supporting elastic pieces, thus prolonging the service life of the sofa seat frame, simplifying the assembly process and omitting the step of welding the hooks.
Further, each hook is provided with a protrusion for preventing unhooking of the supporting elastic piece.
Therefore, the protrusion can not only prevent the supporting elastic piece from being separated from the hook in the use process, but also avoid bending the end of the supporting elastic piece to reinforce the connection with the hook when the supporting elastic piece is hooked, thus reducing the assembly steps and improving the assembly efficiency.
Specifically, the supporting elastic piece is a serpentine spring.
Further, each cross beam is a metal piece and comprises a second supporting plate, a third side plate arranged on the outer side of the lower part of the second supporting plate and used for being detachably connected with the sofa fabric on the seat cushion, and a fourth side plate arranged on the inner side of the lower part of the second supporting plate, wherein:
a plurality of hooks on each cross beam are formed by stamping the second supporting plate and the fourth side plate.
Therefore, when the sofa fabric is assembled, it is only necessary to install the clamping strip at the edge of the sofa fabric, and then clamp the clamping strip with the lower edges of the third side plates on the two cross beams, so that the sofa fabric on the seat cushion can be fixed to the sofa seat frame. The process is simple and convenient, not only improves the installation efficiency, but also facilitates disassembly, has a high fault tolerance rate, and cannot cause material waste.
Further, the third side plate, the fourth side plate and the second supporting plate are integrally formed by bending, and are inverted U-shaped.
Therefore, the cross beam formed by integral bending has higher supporting strength and is convenient to process. In addition, each cross beam is arranged in an inverted U shape, so that the structure of the cross beam is stabler and the supporting strength is higher, thus improving the overall supporting strength of the sofa seat frame.
Further, the two ends of each cross beam are also provided with reinforcing plates, and the reinforcing plates are connected with the third side plates and the fourth side plates.
Therefore, by arranging the reinforcing plates at two ends of each cross beam, the structure of the cross beam is stabler and the supporting strength of the cross beam is further improved.
In addition, a second aspect of the invention also provides a sofa base assembly which comprises a rack and the sofa seat frame which is detachably connected with the rack and is provided by the first aspect of the invention, wherein:
the rack comprises two metal supporting legs arranged opposite to each other; and
third supporting plates of the sofa seat frame are detachably connected to the supporting legs.
Therefore, by arranging the third supporting plates to be connected with the supporting legs, the supporting area at the joint between the sofa seat frame and the rack can be improved, thus improving the overall supporting strength of the rack to the sofa seat frame and making the sofa seat frame stabler and firmer. In addition, the supporting legs made of a metal material are adopted for replacing the existing wooden frame structure, not only have a simple structure, but also have higher supporting strength and improve the overall stability of the sofa base assembly.
Besides, a third aspect of the invention further provides a functional sofa base assembly which comprises a functional rack and the sofa seat frame which is detachably connected to the functional rack and is provided by the first aspect of the invention, wherein:
the functional rack comprises a first base and two telescopic brackets arranged on the first base at intervals, each telescopic bracket comprising a seat frame mounting plate and a first mounting plate arranged on the seat frame mounting plate; and
the third supporting plates of the sofa seat frame are detachably connected to the first mounting plates.
Therefore, by arranging the third supporting plates to be connected with the first mounting plates, the supporting area of the joint between the sofa seat frame and the functional rack can be improved, thus improving the overall supporting strength of the functional rack to the sofa seat frame and making the sofa seat frame stabler and firmer.
Further, the first mounting plate is formed by bending the seat frame mounting plate.
Therefore, the supporting strength of the first mounting plate formed by bending the seat frame mounting plate is higher.
Further, the first mounting plate is arranged at a middle position in the height direction of the seat frame mounting plate.
Therefore, by arranging the first mounting plate at the middle position in the height direction of the seat frame mounting plate, the height of the first mounting piece is lowered, thereby lowering the mounting height of the sofa seat frame, and further improving the sitting comfort of users.
Further, third side plates of the cross beams close to a sofa backrest are provided with an extension plate used for being detachably connected with the sofa fabric on the seat cushion.
Therefore, the extension plate is arranged to be connected with the sofa fabric, so that a motor at the bottom of the sofa can be sealed to prevent articles or dust from falling into the motor to affect the motor at the bottom of the sofa.

Preferably, the first side plate 112, the second side plate 113 and the first supporting plate 111 are integrally formed by bending. The first side plate 112, the second side plate 113 and the first supporting plate 111 are formed by bending the same steel plate in order to facilitate processing and maintain the relatively high supporting strength of the longitudinal beam 11. It should be noted that the first side plate 112, the second side plate 113 and the first supporting plate 111 are not limited to the integrally formed structure, and can also be fixed by welding.
Therefore, each longitudinal beam 11 is provided with the first supporting plate 111, and when the seat cushion is placed on the plurality of supporting elastic pieces 13, the first supporting plates 111 can also give a certain supporting force to the seat cushion, thus improving the sitting comfort of users. Secondly, when the sofa fabric is assembled, it is only necessary to install a clamping strip at the edge of the sofa fabric, and then clamp the clamping strip on the sofa fabric with the lower edges of the first side plates 112 of the two longitudinal beams 11, so that the sofa fabric on the seat cushion can be fixed to the sofa seat frame 1. The process is simple and convenient, not only improves the installation efficiency, but also facilitates disassembly, has a high fault tolerance rate, and cannot cause material waste. In addition, by arranging the second side plates 113, not only is the overall structure of the longitudinal beams 11 stabler, but also the firmness of its connection with the cross beams 12 and the bottom rack is improved, thus improving the overall stability of the sofa seat frame 1 and increasing its supporting strength. In addition, each longitudinal beam 11 is arranged in an inverted U shape, so that the structure of the longitudinal beam 11 is stabler and the supporting strength is higher, thus improving the overall supporting strength of the sofa seat frame 1.

Referring again to
Preferably, the third side plate 122, the fourth side plate 123 and the second supporting plate 121 are integrally formed by bending. The third side plate 122, the fourth side plate 123 and the second supporting plate 121 are formed by bending the same steel plate in order to facilitate processing and maintain the relatively high supporting strength of the cross beam 12. It should be noted that the third side plate 122, the fourth side plate 123 and the second supporting plate 121 are not limited to the integrally formed structure, and can also be fixed by welding. Further, reinforcing plates 124 are arranged at two ends of each cross beam 12, and the reinforcing plates 124 are connected to the third side plate 122 and the fourth side plate 123.
Therefore, when the sofa fabric is assembled, it is only necessary to install the clamping strip at the edge of the sofa fabric, and then clamp the clamping strip on the sofa fabric with the lower edges of the third side plates 122 of the two cross beams 12, so that the sofa fabric on the seat cushion can be fixed to the sofa seat frame 1.

Therefore, the hooks 125 formed by stamping have higher strength than the existing hooks 125 connected to the cross beam 12 by welding or other forms, and are less likely to be damaged under the elastic force of the supporting elastic pieces 13, thereby prolonging the service life of the whole sofa, simplifying the assembly process and omitting the step of welding the hooks 125.
Specifically, each hook 125 is substantially C-shaped. Each hook 125 is also provided with a protrusion 1251 for preventing the unhooking of the supporting elastic piece 13. The protrusion 1251 not only prevents the supporting elastic piece 13 from being separated from the hook 125 during use, but also avoids bending the end of the supporting elastic piece 13 to reinforce the connection with the hook 125 when the supporting elastic piece 13 is hooked, thereby reducing the assembly steps and improving the assembly efficiency.
In the present embodiment, each supporting elastic piece 13 is a serpentine spring. The two ends of the serpentine spring are respectively movably hooked on the hooks 125 of the two cross beams 12. As such, a plurality of serpentine springs are arched upward toward the sitting face of the sofa seat frame 1, thereby forming an arc-shaped sitting surface, which has good vibration damping performance and improves the sitting comfort of users. Admittedly, in other preferred embodiments, the supporting elastic piece 13 can also be a rubber band or a combination of a serpentine spring and the rubber band to achieve the effect of elastically supporting the seat cushion of the sofa.

Preferably, the two fifth side plates 142 and the third supporting plate 141 are integrally formed by bending. In order to facilitate processing and maintain the relatively high supporting strength of the first connecting piece 14, the two fifth side plates 142 and the third supporting plate 141 are formed by bending the same steel plate. It should be noted that the two fifth side plates 142 and the third supporting plate 141 are not limited to the integrally formed structure, and can also be fixed by welding.
Referring to
In this embodiment, the two fifth side plates 142 are fixed to the first side plate 112 and the second side plate 113 by welding, respectively, and the third supporting plate 141 is fixed to the sofa rack by bolted connection.
As a result, each first connecting piece 14 is arranged in a U shape, so that the structure of the first connecting piece 14 is stabler and the supporting strength is higher. By arranging the third supporting plates 141 to be connected with the sofa rack, the supporting area at the joint of the sofa seat frame 1 and the sofa rack can be increased, thereby improving the overall supporting strength of the sofa rack to the sofa seat frame 1 and making the sofa seat frame 1 stabler and firmer.
Referring to
Referring to
Therefore, by arranging the third supporting plates 141 to be connected with the supporting legs 31, the supporting area at the joints between the sofa seat frame 1 and the supporting legs 31 can be increased, the supporting strength of the rack 3 to the sofa seat frame 1 can be improved, and the sofa seat frame 1 can be stabler and firmer.

Therefore, the fifth supporting plate 821 is arranged to be connected with the sofa foot pad plate 7, so that the supporting strength of the sofa base assembly to the sofa foot pad plate 7 is improved, and the sofa foot pad plate 7 is stabler and firmer.
In addition, the sofa further comprises fourth connecting pieces 83 through which the sofa armrest 5 is detachably connected to the sofa seat frame 1. Each fourth connecting piece 83 comprises a first member 831 and a second member 832, and the first member 831 is in sliding insertion fit with the second member 832. In this embodiment, the first members 831 are connected to the longitudinal beams 11, and the second members 832 are connected to the sofa armrests 5. Admittedly, in other embodiments, the first members 831 can be connected to the sofa armrests 5 and the second members 832 can be connected to the longitudinal beams 11.

Specifically, the first substrate 8311 is in a strip-shaped plate shape, and the guide rail 8312 is of a first bent structure formed by bending the side edge of the first substrate 8311 toward one surface of the first substrate 8311; the stopper 8313 is of a second bent structure formed by bending one side edge of the first substrate 8311 near the end toward one surface of the first substrate 8311; both the first bent structure and the second bent structure are bent toward the same surface of the first substrate 8311.
In this embodiment, the first bent structure is bent two times and is in an L shape; the second bent structure is bent one time. Admittedly, in other embodiments, the first and second bent structures can be in other shapes; at the same time, the two guide rails 8312 may not be limited to the integrally bending formed structure, and can also be fixed to the first substrate 8311 by welding.
Specifically, the second substrate 8321 is also in a strip-shaped plate shape, and the guide bar 8322 is of a third bent structure formed by bending the side edge of the second substrate 8321 toward one surface of the second substrate 8321.
In this embodiment, the third bent structure is bent three times and is in the shape of “Π”; admittedly, in other embodiments, the third bent structure can be in other shapes. At that same time, the two guide bars 8322 may not be limited to the integrally bending formed structure, and can also be fixed to the second substrate 8321 by welding.
Further, the width between the two guide rails 8312 gradually decreases in the axial direction of the first substrate 8311, and the width between the two guide bars 8322 gradually decreases in the axial direction of the second substrate 8321. As a result, when the two guide bars 8322 are inserted into the two guide rails 8312, the guide bars and the guide rails are in tighter fit, thereby improving the stability of the assembly of the sofa armrest 5.
In addition, the first substrate 8311 and the second substrate 8321 are each provided with a plurality of bolt holes 8314 which are uniformly arranged in the axial direction of the first substrate 8311 and the second substrate 8321, respectively. The first member 831 and the second member 832 are positioned via the bolt holes 8314 and connected by bolts.
Therefore, after the first member 831 and the second member 832 are in sliding insertion fit, the first member 831 and the second member 832 are fixed by two methods: one is to abut the two guide bars 8322 of the second member 832 against the stopper 8313 of the first member 831; and the other is to align the bolt holes 8314 in the first substrate 8311 of the first member 831 with the bolt holes 8314 in the second substrate 8321 of the second member 832, and then complete connection with bolts. The two fixing methods are adopted to improve the flexibility of the assembly of the sofa armrest 5.
In addition, in this embodiment, the sofa armrests 5, the sofa backrest 6 and the sofa foot pad plate 7 are all integrally formed by a blow molding process.
