Benefits of technology

The present invention is a space adjustment mechanism for a chair that includes a seat base unit, a backrest sliding unit, and an angular cross linking unit. This mechanism solves the issues with fixed-size children chairs and provides a more comfortable and adjustable seat for children.

Problems solved by technology

If a child's body is too small to sit in a larger chair, the child's back can not touch with the backrest to get sufficient support; oppositely, if a child's body is too big to sit in a smaller chair, the thigh of the child can not get full support by the seat, unless the seatback is capable of moving backward,

Embodiment Construction

[0022]Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, the space adjustment mechanism for a chair according to the present invention is basically including a seat base unit 1, a backrest sliding unit 2 and an angular cross linking unit 3.

[0023]The seat base unit 1 has a body portion 11 for accommodating an occupant to sit thereupon, and a shaft 12 extending downward from down side of the body portion 11.

[0024]The backrest sliding unit 2 has a backrest 21 connected with a slidable rack 23 which has at least one portion slidably engaged with the body portion 11 and formed with a pair of tubular sections 24 parallel to each other. For instance, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the backrest sliding unit 2 may be equipped with a bridging member 22 connected between the pair of tubular sections 24 for slidably engaging with the down side of the body portion 11. Preferably, the down side of the body portion 11 is formed with at least a guiding slot 110, and the bridging member 22 is formed with at least a protruded p...

Abstract

A space adjustment mechanism for a chair includes a seat base unit, a backrest sliding unit and an angular cross linking unit. The seat base unit has a body portion for accommodating an occupant sitting thereupon, and a shaft extending downward from the body portion. The backrest sliding unit has a backrest connected with a slidable rack which is slidably engaged with the body portion and formed with a pair of tubular sections. The angular cross linking unit has a first extending member for telescopically engaged with the shaft, and a pair of second extending members for telescopically engaged with the tubular sections. By this mechanism, when the first extending member is moving downward along the shaft, the backrest is driven to move backward for accommodating elder child, when the first extending member is moving upward, the backrest is driven to move forward for accommodating little child.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a space adjustment mechanism for a chair, especially to a mechanism capable of changing the position of the backrest for accommodating the children of different growing stages.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]Children's body is changing day by day in their growing stages. If a child's body is too small to sit in a larger chair, the child's back can not touch with the backrest to get sufficient support; oppositely, if a child's body is too big to sit in a smaller chair, the thigh of the child can not get full support by the seat, unless the seatback is capable of moving backward,[0005]It is a long desire to improve the function as well as provide a new structure of a chair for children thereby accommodating the growing children occupant in a comfortable way.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0006]For fulfilling the above-mentioned long need and eliminating the drawbacks of fixed-size ch...
