Abstract

A seat cushion structure of chair is provided, in which a seat cushion body has a chamber provided on its upper end surface. The chamber has holders provided on its two opposite walls, and a plurality of spring steel wires have their two ends fixed on the holders provided on the opposite walls of the chamber so as to span across the chamber. An elastic pad covers correspondingly the upper end surface of the seat cushion body in such a manner that user, when sits on the elastic pad, enjoys comfortable and elastic feeling by the support of the elastic pad and the spring steel wires provided under the elastic pad. Furthermore, user'"'"'s body heat can be dissipated through perforations provided on the elastic pad to the chamber of the seat cushion and thus to the outside, so as to enhance user'"'"'s comfort.

Claims

1. A seat cushion structure of chair, mainly comprises:

a seat cushion body having a chamber provided on its upper end surface, a plurality of holders being provided on two opposite walls of the chamber, each holder on one wall of the chamber being provided in such a manner that it corresponds to the holder on the opposite wall;

a plurality of spring steel wires having their two ends fixed on the holders provided on the opposite walls of the chamber of the seat cushion body so as to span across the chamber;

an elastic pad having its shape formed correspondingly to the upper end surface of the seat cushion body so as to cover the upper end surface of the seat cushion body.

2. The seat cushion structure of chair as claimed in claim 1, wherein a retaining hole is formed on each of the holders of the seat cushion body, and retaining portions are formed on both ends of each spring steel wire in such a manner that each retaining portion of each spring steel wire is engaged with the corresponding retaining hole.

3. The seat cushion structure of chair as claimed in claim 2, wherein the upper end surface of the seat cushion body further has a groove formed along the periphery of the s eat cushion body, while the bottom side of the elastic pad is correspondingly formed with a flange along the periphery of the elastic pad in such a manner that the flange of the elastic pad is inserted into the groove of the seat cushion body.

4. The seat cushion structure of chair as claimed in claim 3, wherein a plurality of tapped holes are provided on the bottom wall of the groove of the seat cushion body, and a plurality of tapped holes are correspondingly provided on the end face of the flange of the elastic pad, and a plurality of fastening members are employed to lock into the tapped holes on the groove of the seat cushion body and on the flange of the elastic pad so as to fix the seat cushion body and the elastic pad together.

5. The seat cushion structure of chair as claimed in claim 4, wherein the plurality of holders are parallelly arranged on opposite walls of the chamber formed in the seat cushion body, and the plurality of spring steel wires fixed on the holders are arranged to be parallel to each other, and gaps are respectively provided between the adjacent spring steel wires.

6. The seat cushion structure of chair as claimed in claim 5, wherein the elastic pad further has a plurality of perforations provided thereon to communicate with the chamber of the seat cushion body.

7. The seat cushion structure of chair as claimed in claim 6, wherein the spring steel wires are formed in wave shape.

8. The seat cushion structure of chair as claimed in claim 1, wherein the upper end surface of the seat cushion body further has a groove formed along the periphery of the s eat cushion body, while the bottom side of the elastic pad is correspondingly formed with a flange along the periphery of the elastic pad in such a manner that the flange of the elastic pad is inserted into the groove of the seat cushion body.

9. The seat cushion structure of chair as claimed in claim 6, wherein a plurality of tapped holes are provided on the bottom wall of the groove of the seat cushion body, and a plurality of tapped holes are correspondingly provided on the end face of the flange of the elastic pad, and a plurality of fastening members are employed to lock into the tapped holes on the groove of the seat cushion body and on the flange of the elastic pad so as to fix the seat cushion body and the elastic pad together.

10. The seat cushion structure of chair as claimed in claim 1, wherein the plurality of holders are parallelly arranged on opposite walls of the chamber formed in the seat cushion body, and the plurality of spring steel wires fixed on the holders are arranged to be parallel to each other, and gaps are respectively provided between the adjacent spring steel wires.
