A manual four-way headrest, comprising:
- a headrest rod, which is used for fixedly connecting to an upper end of a backrest;
- an inner pad block, which is fitted around the headrest rod so as to be able to slide vertically, the inner pad block being provided with a first mounting hole that passes through the headrest in a front-rear direction;
- a support component, which is provided with a guide post that extends in the front-rear direction of the headrest, the guide post being fitted in the first mounting hole so as to be able to slide forward and backward;
- a headrest body, which is fixedly mounted on a front end of the support component;
- and
- a locking mechanism, the locking mechanism comprising a locking strip that is slidably mounted along a width direction of the inner pad block, an elastic element that is disposed between the locking strip and the inner pad block, and an unlocking button that controls the sliding of the locking strip, and the locking strip having a first locking part and a second locking part;
- under an elastic force of the elastic element, the first locking part and the second locking part can be locked on the guide post and the headrest rod, respectively, to limit the forward-backward sliding of the guide post and the vertical sliding of the inner pad block;
- pressing the unlocking button can push the locking strip to slide, to remove the movement restriction of the first locking part and the second locking part on the guide post and the inner pad block.
