Patent number: 10058183Abstract: A headrest lifting mechanism is revealed. The headrest lifting mechanism is disposed on a seat back and including a lifting base, a bottom-side vertical support and an elastic positioning rod. A headrest is connected to an upper end of the bottom-side vertical support. A positioning end of the elastic positioning rod fixed on the bottom-side vertical support is moved downward into one of the slots of the lifting base owing to material elasticity when the bottom-side vertical support is assembled with the lifting base. Thus the bottom-side vertical support and the positioning end are slid and positioned together in the slots of the lifting base. The number of the parts is reduced and the assembly is simplified. This enables cost reduction and mass production.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2016Date of Patent: August 28, 2018Assignee: Atec International Team Co., Ltd.Inventor: Te-Chun Chen

Patent number: 10010182Abstract: An adjustment device for vertically adjusting a chair headrest is revealed and is installed on a seat back frame while in use. The adjustment device includes a sliding member, a fixing member and a button set. A vertical toothed part of the button set is moved and separated from a first rack of the sliding member when the button set is pressed. Then the sliding member is moved vertically relative to the fixing member for synchronous adjustment of vertical position of the headrest. After the button set being released, the vertical toothed part of the button set is turned back and engaged with the first rack of the sliding member. Thus the sliding member and the headrest are positioned at a new position after the adjustment.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2017Date of Patent: July 3, 2018Assignee: Atec International Team Co., Ltd.Inventor: Te-Chun Chen
