Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an armrest stopper for a flip-up armrest mounted on seats of aircraft, buses, railway vehicles, etc.

[Conventional technology]

The flip-up armrests conventionally attached to seats in aircraft, buses, railway vehicles, etc. are rotatably attached to the frame at the lower end of the seatback, and can be moved to the side of the seatback as desired when passengers get on or off the seat. It is constructed so that it can be flipped up.

[The problem that the idea aims to solve]

However, as shown in FIG.
Armrest A should be placed in contact with the side edge of seat back B to prevent it from rotating rearward.
A stopper is provided near the rotating part to prevent excessive rotation toward the rear. However, in order to create a structure in which the armrest is received at the side edge of the seatback to prevent it from rotating backwards, as in the former case, it is necessary to form a corresponding edge on the side edge of the seatback. In the latter case, the armrest cannot be tilted backwards to follow the tilt of the seat back, and when the seat back is tilted, special consideration must be given to the strength of that part. The armrest protruded from the seat back surface, making it difficult to use.

The present invention was devised in view of the above problem, and prevents the armrest from over-rotating backwards when the armrest is flipped up on the side edge of the seatback, and also prevents the armrest from rotating along the upright seatback surface. If the seatbacks on both sides of the armrest are tilted backwards, the armrest can be tilted backwards and stopped by following the reclining movement of the seatbacks while still being prevented from rotating. An object of the present invention is to provide an armrest stopper that can be used as a hanging device for hanging a hook for hanging baggage or other personal items.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, the armrest stopper according to the present invention has a protrusion fixed to the side edge of the seat bag that protrudes laterally to prevent over-rotation when the armrest is flipped up, and the protrusion In this embodiment, the body is covered with a suspension cap having a radially outwardly projecting edge formed at the distal end thereof.

[Effect]

According to the above configuration, when the armrest is flipped up, it collides with the armrest stopper projecting from the side edge of the seat back at a predetermined position, preventing over-rotation toward the rear. When the seat back is reclined, the armrest tilts to follow the reclining movement of the seat back. Therefore, when the armrest is flipped up, it does not protrude from the seat back surface.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the armrest stopper according to the present invention will be described below.

In Figure 2, 1 is the seat back of the seat, 2
is an armrest arranged at an intermediate position between the seat back 1 and the other seat backs 1. The armrest 2 is rotatably pivoted to a seat frame (not shown) at the lower end of the seat bag 1, and is configured to be able to flip upward when a passenger gets on or off the seat or as needed. 3 is
This is an armrest stopper attached so as to protrude laterally at both left and right end edges of the seat bag 1. This armrest stopper 3 consists of a suspension cap 4 made of rubber or synthetic resin, and a protrusion 5 for holding the suspension cap 4 on the side edge of the seat bag 1.
has an edge 6 projecting radially outward at its tip, and the protrusion 5 is fixed to the side edge of the seat bag 1 by a screw 7 passed through its axial center. The edge 6 of the hanging cap 4 can prevent the hook from falling off the hanging cap 4 when a hook (not shown) such as a hanging tool is hooked onto the hanging cap 4. , allowing use as a luggage hanger for rear seat passengers. The installation location and number of armrest stoppers 3 for one seat bag 1 can be appropriately selected depending on the installation location of the armrest 2 for the seat.

[Effect of idea]

Since the armrest stopper according to the present invention is constructed as described above, it is possible to prevent over-rotation when the flip-up armrest attached to the seat of an aircraft, bus, railway vehicle, etc. is flipped up, and also to prevent the armrest stopper from over-rotating when the armrest is flipped up. Even when the seatback reclines, the position of the armrest stopper moves with the seatback, tilting the armrest, preventing the armrest from protruding beyond the seatback surface, and allowing rear seat passengers to use it as a hanging device for baggage. This invention has excellent practical effects after implementation.
