A backrest translation mechanism includes a holder mounted on a sofa seat, a swing locating member, a backrest mount, a slider, and a positioning pin. The swing locating member has a first end pivoted on the holder, several locking slots with downward openings arranged at regular intervals along its length direction. The locking slots are adapted for engaging with and unidirectionally locking up the positioning pin, one side of each locking slots is provided with an inclined surface inclined towards an opposite direction of the first end. The slider is slidably set on the swing locating member and has a retaining slot and a limiting slot. The positioning pin is accepted by the retaining slot and the locking slot jointly, and the positioning pin is restricted to be out of the locking slot by the limiting slot.

1. A backrest translation mechanism, used for adjusting positions of a backrest relative to a sofa seat, comprising a holder, a swing locating member, a backrest mount, a slider, and a positioning pin;
wherein the holder is mounted on the sofa seat; wherein the swing locating member is shaped as a strip whose one end is defined as a first end pivoted on the holder, the swing locating member has several locking slots with downward openings arranged at regular intervals along a length direction of the swing locating member for engaging with and unidirectionally locking up the positioning pin by gravity, and one side of the locking slot that is far from the first end is provided with an inclined surface which is inclined from top to bottom and towards an opposite direction of the first end; wherein the backrest mount has an upper end mounted on the backrest and a lower end slidably set on the holder along the length direction; wherein the slider is slidably set on the swing locating member along the length direction, and the slider has a retaining slot and a limiting slot both of which extends along the length direction and penetrates through the slider; the positioning pin is accepted by the retaining slot and the locking slot jointly, the limiting slot is located on one side of the retaining slot that closes to the first end and communicated with the retaining slot, and the positioning pin is restricted to be out of the locking slot by the limiting slot; wherein the positioning pin is fixed on the lower end of the backrest mount and slidably inserted into the retaining slot and the limiting slot; wherein the retaining slot and the limiting slot have a common lower wall, and an upper wall of the retaining slot is higher than that of the limiting slot, thus forming a lying L shape; wherein in assembly the upper wall of the limiting slot is lower than a position of the opening of the locking slot, and the upper wall of the retaining slot is higher than the position of the opening of the locking slot; wherein while moving the backrest mount along with the positioning pin toward the opposite direction of the first end, the positioning pin is contained in the retaining slot, once met by the positioning pin, the locking slot rotates down to contain the positioning pin and thereby locking up the positioning pin, and at this point the positioning pin is close to the upper wall; and wherein while the positioning pin is being moved out of any one of the locking slots along the inclined surface to the interval, the positioning pin is moved to close to the common lower wall, and the swing locating member together with the slider rotate upward, and at this point the backrest mount along with the positioning pin is allowed to move toward the first end, and the positioning pin is slid into the limiting slot which restricts the locking slot to lock the positioning pin. |
