Abstract

Provided are an ottoman linkage device, a frame body, and a seat. The ottoman linkage device includes an upper link, a lower link, a middle ottoman link, a first front ottoman link, a second front ottoman link, a first connection link, a second connection link, a front ottoman bracket, and a middle ottoman bracket. The upper link or the lower link is rotatable under a driving force to make the ottoman linkage device unfold or fold. By changing the length of the first connection link and the length of the second connection link, the magnitude of the driving force of the first connection link can be adjusted.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An ottoman linkage device, comprising an upper link, a lower link, a middle ottoman link, a first front ottoman link, a second front ottoman link, a first connection link, a second connection link, a front ottoman bracket, and a middle ottoman bracket, wherein the lower link, the middle ottoman link, and the middle ottoman bracket are sequentially hinged, the upper link, the first front ottoman link, and the middle ottoman bracket are sequentially hinged, the middle ottoman link is hinged to the upper link, the second front ottoman link is hinged between the first front ottoman link and the front ottoman bracket, the first connection link is hinged to the second connection link, the first connection link is hinged to the front ottoman bracket, the second connection link is hinged to the first front ottoman link, and the middle ottoman bracket is hinged to the first connection link.

2. The ottoman linkage device of claim 1 , wherein one end of the middle ottoman bracket is hinged to the first connection link, and another end of the middle ottoman bracket is provided with a recliner cushion attachment platform.

3. The ottoman linkage device of claim 2 , wherein one end of the front ottoman bracket is hinged to the second front ottoman link, and another end of the front ottoman bracket is provided with a front ottoman cushion attachment platform.

4. The ottoman linkage device of claim 3 , wherein, when the ottoman linkage device is unfolded, the recliner cushion attachment platform is horizontally flush with the front ottoman cushion attachment platform; and
when the ottoman linkage device is folded, the recliner cushion attachment platform is vertically flush with the front ottoman cushion attachment platform.

5. The ottoman linkage device of claim 2 , wherein a height of a hinge point of the second front ottoman link and the front ottoman bracket is lower than a height of a top surface of the recliner cushion attachment platform.

6. The ottoman linkage device of claim 1 , wherein one end of the first front ottoman link is hinged to the upper link, another end of the first front ottoman link is hinged to the middle ottoman bracket, and a hinge point of the second front ottoman link and the first front ottoman link is between hinge points at two ends of the first front ottoman link.

7. The ottoman linkage device of claim 1 , wherein one end of the first connection link is hinged to the front ottoman bracket, another end of the first connection link is hinged to the second connection link, and a hinge point of the middle ottoman bracket and the first connection link is between hinge points at two ends of the first connection link.

8. The ottoman linkage device of claim 1 , wherein, the upper link or the lower link is rotatable under a driving force and capable of driving a linkage of the middle ottoman link, the first front ottoman link, the second front ottoman link, the first connection link, the second connection link, the front ottoman bracket, and the middle ottoman bracket to make the ottoman linkage device unfold or fold.

9. A frame body, comprising a fixed assembly, a movable link assembly, and the ottoman linkage device of claim 1 , wherein the movable link assembly is connected to the fixed assembly, and the ottoman linkage device is hinged to the movable link assembly.

10. A seat, comprising the frame body of claim 9 .

11. The ottoman linkage device of claim 2 , wherein, the upper link or the lower link is rotatable under a driving force and capable of driving a linkage of the middle ottoman link, the first front ottoman link, the second front ottoman link, the first connection link, the second connection link, the front ottoman bracket, and the middle ottoman bracket to make the ottoman linkage device unfold or fold.

12. The ottoman linkage device of claim 3 , wherein, the upper link or the lower link is rotatable under a driving force and capable of driving a linkage of the middle ottoman link, the first front ottoman link, the second front ottoman link, the first connection link, the second connection link, the front ottoman bracket, and the middle ottoman bracket to make the ottoman linkage device unfold or fold.

13. The ottoman linkage device of claim 4 , wherein, the upper link or the lower link is rotatable under a driving force and capable of driving a linkage of the middle ottoman link, the first front ottoman link, the second front ottoman link, the first connection link, the second connection link, the front ottoman bracket, and the middle ottoman bracket to make the ottoman linkage device unfold or fold.

14. The ottoman linkage device of claim 5 , wherein, the upper link or the lower link is rotatable under a driving force and capable of driving a linkage of the middle ottoman link, the first front ottoman link, the second front ottoman link, the first connection link, the second connection link, the front ottoman bracket, and the middle ottoman bracket to make the ottoman linkage device unfold or fold.

15. The ottoman linkage device of claim 6 , wherein, the upper link or the lower link is rotatable under a driving force and capable of driving a linkage of the middle ottoman link, the first front ottoman link, the second front ottoman link, the first connection link, the second connection link, the front ottoman bracket, and the middle ottoman bracket to make the ottoman linkage device unfold or fold.

16. The ottoman linkage device of claim 7 , wherein, the upper link or the lower link is rotatable under a driving force and capable of driving a linkage of the middle ottoman link, the first front ottoman link, the second front ottoman link, the first connection link, the second connection link, the front ottoman bracket, and the middle ottoman bracket to make the ottoman linkage device unfold or fold.

17. A frame body, comprising a fixed assembly, a movable link assembly, and the ottoman linkage device of claim 2 , wherein the movable link assembly is connected to the fixed assembly, and the ottoman linkage device is hinged to the movable link assembly.

18. A frame body, comprising a fixed assembly, a movable link assembly, and the ottoman linkage device of claim 3 , wherein the movable link assembly is connected to the fixed assembly, and the ottoman linkage device is hinged to the movable link assembly.

19. A frame body, comprising a fixed assembly, a movable link assembly, and the ottoman linkage device of claim 4 , wherein the movable link assembly is connected to the fixed assembly, and the ottoman linkage device is hinged to the movable link assembly.

20. A frame body, comprising a fixed assembly, a movable link assembly, and the ottoman linkage device of claim 5 , wherein the movable link assembly is connected to the fixed assembly, and the ottoman linkage device is hinged to the movable link assembly.
