There are many options for Chair Tilt Mechanisms with different styles and designs. Most of you know that tilt mechanisms can be classified based on their function. However, you may not know that they can also be sorted based on the number of their functions. And this is what we will introduce to you.
The tilt mechanism of the chair is installed under the seat and connected to a cylinder. This type of construction is very clear as shown in the video on the right. And from that video, we can learn how to use the multifunctional tilt mechanism. But it is not visible when someone is sitting in the chair. When people buy a chair, they are in a similar situation, which is overlooked by most people.
When choosing an office chair, the general public usually pays attention to appearance, function, and price.
"Meanwhile, experts know that the technical core of an office chair lies in the design and manufacturing of the chair's tilt mechanism, and the safety core lies in the class of the gas cylinder. As long as customers understand these two important points, they can choose a chair that is generally durable, comfortable, and safe."
"The following will inform you about 5 common office chair tilt mechanisms available in the market, with their functions increasing from 1 to 5."
Here is a Summary of 5 Types of Office Chair Tilt Mechanisms
"To make it easier for you to understand the basic mechanism of tilting with different functions, we have summarized these 5 functions and created a table to show them. Then we will explain everything in detail."
1. General Lifting Tilt Mechanism - One function
Only the seat height adjuster (high and low), the seat cushion can be raised and lowered freely.
Press the chair cylinder button to release the pressure inside the cylinder. (how the cylinder works)
This is commonly used in bar stools, laboratory chairs.
This tilt mechanism has an adjustment lever. The seat cushion can be raised and lowered freely as above.
Also regulated by a rotation control device, it can control the elasticity of the back with a manually adjustable spring. However, it cannot lock the rear tilt angle.
Characteristics of the NG003B Tilt Mechanism Design
"As shown in the image above, our NG003B Rotary Tilt Mechanism is designed in a butterfly shape."
Office chairs with such a tilt mechanism mostly have a structure where the seat cushion is directly connected to the backrest. Therefore, when tilted backward, the angle between the backrest and the seat cushion remains, and the sitting posture of the human body does not change.
In other words, if one wants to continuously lie down while resting, the body will not be able to achieve a position close to lying down. Therefore, generally, consumers will move their buttocks slightly forward to adjust their sitting position. The effect of adjusting the sitting posture by moving the body forward is limited. Moreover, chiropractic can easily cause pain and discomfort due to improper pressure on chiropractic.
In addition, there is a structure where the chair backrest and seat cushion are assembled separately. In this structure, L-shaped brackets are used to connect the backrest and are linked to the seat cushion with springs. This allows the backrest to have flexibility to tilt backward. Only the backrest has elastic support. Meanwhile, the seat cushion remains stationary, making it insufficient for reclining for long periods.
"However, its structure is simple and the price is affordable. It is very cost-effective, so the volume of demand is very large."
This type of tilt mechanism is a popular tilt mechanism today. It has three adjustment functions: backward locking, seat cushion lifting, and backward elasticity adjustment.
In addition, the design of the tilt mechanism of this type is very diverse, such as our NG012D, NB002, NT002C. The three functions can be realized with one Lever or two Levers, plus a Knob.
Turn the cylinder knob at the bottom of the tilt mechanism clockwise to increase the elasticity of the chair backrest. And turn it counterclockwise to decrease the elasticity of the chair backrest.
Compared to the three-function tilt mechanism in general, the ergonomic four-function tilt mechanism adds the function of adjusting the front and rear seat cushions.
The depth adjustment function of the seat cushion makes it suitable for users with different leg lengths. Users place their thighs fully on the cushion through moderate adjustment. Increasing the contact area between the body and the seat cushion is the best way to reduce pressure on the lower extremities. Less pressure makes users feel more comfortable and allows for longer sitting times.
In addition to the four original adjustment functions, the five-function tilt mechanism also adds the function of adjusting the seat cushion angle. And it can adapt to the specific needs of different users with more indicators.
For example, when you need to write and read at the desk, it will be easier for users to adjust the chair cushion to tilt slightly forward. When watching a movie or taking a break, adjust the chair cushion to tilt backward for more comfort.
"For the four types of tilt mechanisms mentioned above, the seat plate can only be tilted backward with the backrest passively."
However, the seat plate with a five-function tilt mechanism can not only be tilted backward, but more importantly, can be tilted forward independently. The seat can be tilted forward to ensure even pressure distribution on the legs and keep the feet flat on the floor. As a result, your legs will feel more comfortable when sitting in this chair.
Conclusion
The various types of tilt mechanisms mentioned above are arranged according to the number of functions that can be realized. They can meet various levels of adjustment needs.
