Abstract

An adjustment mechanism of a bendable elastic cushion includes a base, a backrest frame, and one or more curved guide rails. The one or more curved guide rails are fixedly connected to the base, and the backrest frame is slidably connected to the one or more curved guide rails, so as to change an angle between the backrest frame and a horizontal plane by sliding the backrest frame along a direction in which the one or more curved guide rails extend.

 when the one or more elastic locking members are in the unlocked state, the backrest frame and the one or more elastic locking members are released from an interlocking connection in the direction in which the one or more curved guide rails extend. 
   
     
     
         3 . The adjustment mechanism of the bendable elastic cushion according to  claim 2 , wherein:
 each of the one or more elastic locking members comprises a positioning pin and a spring,   a first end of the spring abuts the base to form a fixed end,   a second end of the spring abuts the positioning pin to form a movable end, and   when the one or more elastic locking members are in the unlocked state, the positioning pin compresses the spring to accumulate an elastic reset force.   
     
     
         4 . The adjustment mechanism of the bendable elastic cushion according to  claim 3 , wherein:
 the one or more curved guide rails are two curved guide rails,   the two curved guide rails are arranged at intervals along a width direction of the base,   the one or more elastic locking members are two elastic locking members in a one-to-one correspondence with the two curved guide rails,   two sides of the positioning pins of the two elastic locking members facing each other are connected by a release rope, and   the release rope is configured to be pulled by a second external force to drive the positioning pins to compress the springs, so that the two elastic locking members are moved to be in the unlocked state.   
     
     
         5 . The adjustment mechanism of the bendable elastic cushion according to  claim 1 , wherein:
 the base comprises a first part configured to be placed on ground and a second part extending away from the first part, and   the second part has a clamping chamber for accommodating the one or more curved guide rails.   
     
     
         6 . The adjustment mechanism of the bendable elastic cushion according to  claim 4 , wherein:
 the backrest frame is in a door-shape, and   two vertical rods of the backrest frame are respectively slidably connected to the two curved guide rails.   
     
     
         7 . The adjustment mechanism of the bendable elastic cushion according to  claim 1 , wherein:
 the backrest frame comprises a walking mechanism that slides with the one or more curved guide rails.   
     
     
         8 . The adjustment mechanism of the bendable elastic cushion according to  claim 7 , wherein:
 the walking mechanism is located in the one or more curved guide rails and comprises one or more rollers that are matched with an inner walls of the one or more curved guide rails.   
     
     
         9 . The adjustment mechanism of the bendable elastic cushion according to  claim 7 , wherein:
 the walking mechanism is sleeved on outsides of the one or more curved guide rails, and   the walking mechanism comprises one or more first rollers cooperating with an upper surface of the one or more curved guide rails and one or more second rollers cooperating with a lower surface of the one or more curved guide rails.   
     
     
         10 . A bendable elastic cushion equipped with the adjustment mechanism according to  claim 1 . 
     
     
         11 . The bendable elastic cushion according to  claim 10 , comprising:
 a soft cushion, and   a plurality of elastic units arranged in an array, wherein:
 the plurality of elastic units are divided into a mattress area arranged on the base and a backrest area configured to move along with the backrest frame according to areas where the mattress area and the backrest area are located. 
   
     
     
         12 . The bendable elastic cushion according to  claim 11 , wherein:
