Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turning-over assistive equipment, and in particular to a turning-over assistive support for nursing care. Background Technology

[0002] Turning assistive devices are tools specifically designed for people with motor dysfunction, post-operative patients, or those in critical condition. They aim to help users change position more easily and safely, reducing discomfort and risks associated with maintaining the same posture for extended periods, such as preventing pressure sores.

[0003] Currently, the most commonly used device in hospitals is the turning belt. When using it, nurses first lay the folded turning belt flat under the patient, aligning the center line of the belt with the patient's spine. To assist with turning, the operator holds the handles on both sides of the belt and applies force simultaneously to turn the patient to the target side. Another type of turning aid device is the nursing bed, which has a height adjustment mechanism on one side. When it's time to turn the patient, the nurse operates the control device to slowly raise one side of the bed. The patient's body will then naturally roll to their side as the bed tilts, while the other side of the bed remains stable. Once the patient has reached the desired angle, the raising and lowering is stopped, completing the turning action.

[0004] The shortcomings of the existing technical solutions are as follows: When using a turning belt, caregivers need to first fold it and lay it flat under the patient, which increases the preparation steps and is quite troublesome. Moreover, assisting with turning over is very strenuous. Although the nursing bed has a height adjustment device on one side to assist with turning over, the patient may not be able to naturally turn to their side with the tilt of the bed, and may occasionally slide along the bed surface. This not only makes it difficult to achieve the ideal turning effect, but may also cause discomfort to the patient, add inconvenience to nursing work, and affect the efficiency and quality of nursing care. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a nursing turning assist bracket, which can solve the problems of cumbersome and laborious turning belts in the prior art, and the nursing bed may cause the patient to slide along the bed surface, making it difficult to achieve the effect of turning over.

[0006] A nursing care turning assistive support includes a leg turning mechanism and a shoulder turning mechanism. The leg turning mechanism includes a leg support plate for limiting the position of the legs. One end of the leg support plate is provided with a first extension push plate to facilitate the user lifting one end of the leg support plate. The leg support plate is provided with a buttock plate for supporting the patient's buttocks.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] 1. In use, the leg-turning mechanism and shoulder-turning mechanism of this utility model are equipped with a first extension push plate and a second extension push plate, which extend outward to form a relatively long power arm. Based on the lever principle, when the user pushes the extension push plate, a small force can generate a large torque, easily lifting the leg support plate and shoulder support plate, thereby lifting the patient's legs and shoulders, greatly reducing the force required for turning over. A baffle is provided at one end of the shoulder support plate to prevent the patient's shoulder from sliding during the lifting process; at the same time, the buttock plate supports the patient's buttocks, keeping the patient's body position relatively fixed during turning over, effectively preventing the patient from sliding along the bed surface and ensuring smooth turning over.

[0018] 2. In use, the leg-turning mechanism of this utility model includes a first positioning support member comprising a first support plate movably hinged to the bottom of the leg support plate, and a first locking plate with multiple sets of first locking slots. When one end of the leg support plate is lifted, the tilt angle of the leg support plate can be flexibly adjusted by selecting different first locking slots. The second positioning support member of the shoulder-turning mechanism has a similar structure; the second support plate cooperates with the second locking slot to achieve angle adjustment of the shoulder support plate. This design can meet the turning needs of different patients, such as providing a specific angle of lateral decubitus position for patients with unilateral pleural effusion, or meeting the angle requirements for drainage of patients after thoracic and abdominal surgery, bringing convenience to nursing work.

[0026] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below, but it should be understood that the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides a nursing turning assist bracket, including a leg turning mechanism 1 and a shoulder turning mechanism 2:

[0028] The leg-flipping mechanism 1 includes a leg support plate 101 for limiting the leg position. One end of the leg support plate 101 is provided with a first extension push plate 102 to facilitate lifting the leg support plate 101 by a user. The first extension push plate 102 extends outward a certain distance, reducing the force required to lift the thigh located on the leg support plate 101 through leverage. A hip plate 105 is provided on the leg support plate 101 to support the patient's buttocks. The bottom of the leg support plate 101 is provided with a first positioning support member to support the leg support plate 101 and maintain its tilt angle. Specifically, as shown... Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown;

[0029] The shoulder flipping mechanism 2 includes a shoulder support plate 201 for supporting the patient's shoulder. One end of the shoulder support plate 201 is provided with a second extended push plate 203 to facilitate the user to lift one end of the shoulder support plate 201. Through the lever principle, the force required to lift the shoulder located on the shoulder support plate 201 is reduced, making it easier for the user to lift the shoulder located on the shoulder support plate 201. The other end of the shoulder support plate 201 is provided with a baffle 202 to prevent the patient from slipping off, thus preventing the patient's shoulder from sliding along the shoulder support plate 201 when lifting. The bottom of the shoulder support plate 201 is provided with a second positioning support member to support the leg support plate 101 and maintain the tilt angle of the leg support plate 101.

[0030] When in use, place the patient's legs on the leg support plate 101 and wear the shoulder support plate 201 under the patient's shoulder blades. At the same time, push the first extension push plate 102 and the second extension push plate 203 to rotate the patient's legs, waist and shoulders in a directional manner. The overall force required is relatively small, which achieves the effect of turning the patient over.

[0031] When treating patients with unilateral pleural effusion, it is best to turn the patient into a lateral decubitus position with a certain angle. Alternatively, in cases where drainage is promoted after thoracic or abdominal surgery, it is necessary to reduce incision tension while ensuring drainage effectiveness, so that the patient is in a lateral decubitus position of 30°–45°, or maintain a lateral decubitus position with a certain angle according to the patient's comfort. This can also be achieved through the first positioning support and the second positioning support, the specific structure of which is as follows:

[0032] The first positioning support includes a first support plate 108 that is movably hinged to the bottom of the leg support plate 101. A first locking plate 106 is movably connected to the end of the leg support plate 101 away from the first extension push plate 102. The first locking plate 106 has multiple sets of first locking grooves 107 for limiting the first support plate 108. When one end of the leg support plate 101 is lifted, the lower end of the first locking plate 106 will move towards the first locking plate 106 under the action of gravity. By selecting different first locking grooves 107, the final tilt angle can be adjusted.

[0033] The second positioning support includes a second support plate 204 that is movably hinged to the bottom of the shoulder support plate 201. A second locking plate 206 is movably connected to the end of the shoulder support plate 201 away from the second extension push plate 203. The second locking plate 206 has multiple sets of second locking grooves 207 that cooperate with the second support plate 204. The angle adjustment method is the same as described above and will not be repeated here. The bottom of the shoulder support plate 201 has a placement groove 205 for storing the second support plate 204.

[0034] It should be noted that during use, the second support plate 204 is not placed in the placement slot 205, but extends to the other side parallel to the second locking plate 206. As the user lifts the second extension push plate 203, the second support plate 204 will slide from the end of the second locking plate 206 to the middle of the second locking plate 206, thus facilitating the determination of the corresponding position of the second locking slot 207. The first support plate 108 is used in a similar manner to the second support plate 204, and will not be described in detail here.

[0035] After maintaining the leg support plate 101 and the shoulder support plate 201 at the same angle, the user can free their hands and quickly place the triangular pillow 3 behind the patient to fit against their back. Then, the user can decide whether to remove the leg flipping mechanism 1 and the shoulder flipping mechanism 2 as needed. To remove them, simply lift the leg support plate 101 and the shoulder support plate 201 so that the first support plate 108 disengages from the first locking groove 107 and the second support plate 204 disengages from the second locking groove 207. Since the first support plate 108 and the second support plate 204 are not locked, they can be easily stored and removed.

[0036] Both the leg support plate 101 and the shoulder support plate 201 have an arc-shaped surface at the end that contacts the bed surface, making it easy for the user to lift the leg support plate 101 and the shoulder support plate 201 along one end. Because the contact surface between the leg support plate 101 and the shoulder support plate 201 and the bed surface is constantly changing when lifted, which is not conducive to the direct connection of the first locking plate 106 and the second locking plate 206, the leg support plate 101 is connected to the first locking plate 106, and the shoulder support plate 201 is connected to the second locking plate 206, thereby ensuring the connection effect.

[0037] In one specific embodiment, the leg support plate 101 is a U-shaped plate, which facilitates lifting both legs together. The buttock plate 105 is provided on one side of the leg support plate 101 near the first extended push plate 102, while the other side is not provided with a buttock plate 105, or both sides can be provided, all of which fall within the scope of protection of this patent.

[0038] In another specific embodiment, the leg support plate 101 is S-shaped, with the upper recessed area on the side of the leg support plate 101 near the first extended push plate 102 serving as the upper leg placement position 104, and the lower recessed area on the side of the leg support plate 101 away from the first extended push plate 102 serving as the lower leg placement position 103. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the patient places one leg in the upper leg placement 104 and the other leg in the lower leg placement 103. The user lifts the leg support plate 101, causing the leg in the upper leg placement 104 to rotate along the end of the leg support plate 101, thus achieving patient rotation. Compared to the previous embodiment, this embodiment requires less effort. The buttock plate 105 is located at the position corresponding to the upper leg placement 104 and is used to support the buttocks during rotation.

[0039] Working principle: In use, the patient's legs are placed on the leg support plate 101. The buttock plate 105 on the leg support plate 101 provides stable support for the patient's buttocks, ensuring that the buttocks remain in a fixed position during turning over. A first extension push plate 102, equipped at one end of the leg support plate 101, extends outward to form a relatively long power arm. When it is necessary to lift the patient's legs, the user pushes the first extension push plate 102. Based on the lever principle, using the contact point between the leg support plate 101 and the bed surface as the fulcrum, a small force can generate a large torque, thereby easily lifting the leg support plate 101 and lifting the patient's thighs.

[0040] The patient's shoulder rests on the shoulder support plate 201. A baffle 202 at one end of the support plate effectively prevents the patient's shoulder from slipping during turning, ensuring the stability of the shoulder position. A second extension push plate 203 at one end of the shoulder support plate 201 provides a leverage point for the user. When pushing the second extension push plate 203, based on the lever principle, using the contact point between the shoulder support plate 201 and the bed surface as the fulcrum, the longer power arm reduces the force required to lift the shoulder support plate 201, making it easier for the user to lift the patient's shoulder.

[0041] The tilt angle of the leg support plate 101 is adjusted and fixed using a first positioning support. When one end of the leg support plate 101 is lifted, the first positioning support activates, allowing the user to select a suitable position and lock it in place. This maintains the leg support plate 101 at a specific tilt angle, meeting the turning angle requirements of different patients, such as achieving a 30°-45° lateral decubitus position to meet the needs of special medical scenarios like unilateral pleural effusion treatment or postoperative drainage in the chest and abdomen. The tilt angle of the shoulder support plate 201 is adjusted and fixed using a second positioning support. During the lifting of the shoulder support plate 201, the second positioning support adjusts to a suitable angle and locks in place according to the user's operation, maintaining the shoulder support plate 201 at the set tilt position. This works in conjunction with the leg support plate 101 to achieve the patient's overall turning motion.

[0042] After the patient's legs and shoulders are placed on the leg support plate 101 and shoulder support plate 201 respectively, the user simultaneously pushes the first extension push plate 102 and the second extension push plate 203. By applying force to the legs and shoulders through leverage, the user induces coordinated movements of the patient's legs, waist, and shoulders, achieving overall directional rotation of the patient. This coordinated operation method distributes the force required for turning, making the entire process easier.

[0043] Once the leg support plate 101 and shoulder support plate 201 are adjusted to the same angle and fixed, the user can temporarily free their hands. At this time, quickly place the triangular pillow 3 behind the patient, ensuring it fits snugly against the patient's back to provide comfortable support. If the leg flipping mechanism 1 and shoulder flipping mechanism 2 need to be removed according to actual nursing needs, a simple operation is all that's required to unlock the first and second positioning supports, allowing for easy storage and removal of these two mechanisms.

[0044] In different embodiments of the leg support plate 101, the U-shaped leg support plate 101 can simultaneously support both legs of the patient, enabling synchronous lifting of both legs. The buttock plate 105 can be positioned appropriately according to actual needs to provide support for the buttocks, ensuring the stability of the buttocks during the lifting of both legs and making the turning movement smoother. The S-shaped leg support plate 101 has an upper leg placement position 104 and a lower leg placement position 103. After the patient places both legs in the corresponding positions, when the user lifts the leg support plate 101, the leg in the upper leg placement position 104 will rotate along the end of the support plate, causing the patient's body to turn over. This design makes the force on the legs more reasonable during the turning process, and compared with the U-shaped leg support plate 101, the turning operation can be completed with less force. At the same time, the buttock plate 105 is located in the corresponding position of the upper leg placement position 104, providing necessary support for the buttocks.

[0045] The above-disclosed embodiments are only a few specific examples of the present utility model. However, the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
