Detailed Implementation
[0042] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit its scope.
[0043] This utility model relates to a medical nursing auxiliary bed, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, it includes:
[0044] Support mechanism 1, used to support the entire bed frame, is made of high-strength steel and has good load-bearing capacity and stability;
[0045] Mounting bracket 2 is mounted on support mechanism 1 and serves as the mounting base for the bed board;
[0046] The middle plate 3, set on the mounting frame 2, is the main bearing surface and is used to place the patient's buttocks.
[0047] The support plate 4 is installed at one end of the middle plate 3 to support the patient's upper body and can rotate freely around the length of the end of the middle plate 3. The support plate 4 has a connector 5 on its back to provide a rotation point.
[0048] The cylinder 6 is rotatably mounted on the connector 5 at its output end. The cylinder 6 can change the angle of the support plate 4 by extending and retracting, thereby adjusting the position of the patient's head.
[0049] The fixing part 7 is set on the mounting bracket 2, providing a stable mounting point for the cylinder 6, and the cylinder 6 is rotatably mounted on the fixing part 7;
[0050] The auxiliary plate 8 is installed at the other end of the middle plate 3 and can rotate freely around the length of the end of the middle plate 3. The auxiliary plate 8 is mainly used to support the patient's legs.
[0051] A flipping mechanism 9 is mounted on the mounting frame 2 and is connected to the auxiliary plate 8 for adjusting the connection angle between the auxiliary plate 8 and the intermediate plate 3.
[0052] This device is multifunctional, possessing both the head-raising function of a traditional assisted bed and the function of facilitating patient ambulation. Its specific working principle is as follows:
[0053] When adjusting the head: Activate cylinder 6 to extend or retract it, thereby pushing support plate 4 to rotate up or down around the end of middle plate 3 to achieve the desired angle;
[0054] When the patient needs to get out of bed: Position the buttocks at the middle plate 3, activate the cylinder 6 to extend it, thereby pushing the support plate 4 to rotate upward around the end of the middle plate 3 to support the patient's back. By operating the flipping mechanism 9, the auxiliary plate 8 rotates downward relative to the middle plate 3 to assist the feet in landing and assist the patient in getting out of bed.
[0055] The design of cylinder 6 and tilting mechanism 9 enables multi-angle position adjustment to meet the personalized needs of different patients. Medical staff can easily perform various adjustment operations. Flexible position adjustment helps improve patient comfort and promotes the recovery process.
[0056] In existing technologies, traditional support mechanisms typically employ simple fixed structures or manual adjustments to achieve bed height or orientation adjustments. However, these methods often suffer from limited adjustment range, inconvenient operation, and insufficient stability, failing to meet the high standards of personalized patient care required in modern medical nursing. This limitation is particularly pronounced when frequent adjustments to bed height and orientation are needed to assist patient recovery or daily care. To address these issues, this device incorporates a superior adjustment mechanism in support mechanism 1, such as… Figures 2 to 3 As shown, the organization mainly comprises the following components:
[0057] The base 11 is made of high-strength steel, which has good load-bearing capacity and stability. It has a mounting hole in the middle and four corners are equipped with rollers 12 to facilitate the movement of the entire nursing auxiliary bed. The rollers 12 are equipped with a locking mechanism to ensure that they can be locked when a fixed position is required. The rollers 12 can be easily locked or unlocked by foot pedal or other means.
[0058] The guide column 13 is rotatably installed in the mounting hole of the base 11, and an extension column 14 is provided inside the guide column 13. The extension column 14 is slidably installed along the length of the guide column 13, thereby driving the entire bed surface to rise and fall. The extension column 14 rotates synchronously with the guide column 13, and the mounting bracket 2 is set on the extension column 14.
[0059] The threaded rod 15 is rotatably mounted at the shaft hole of the guide column 13, and the threaded rod 15 is installed in conjunction with the threaded inner hole of the extension column 14. When the threaded rod 15 rotates, it drives the extension column 14 to move up and down, thereby changing the height of the bed.
[0060] A drive motor 16 is mounted on an extension post 14, and one end of the threaded rod 15 is mounted on the output end of the drive motor 16. The drive motor 16 provides power to rotate the threaded rod 15.
[0061] The adjustment mechanism 17 is mounted on the base 11 and connected to the guide column 13, and is used to adjust the direction of the mounting bracket 2 driven by the guide column 13.
[0062] The working principle of the support mechanism 1 of this device is as follows:
[0063] Height adjustment: When the height of the bed needs to be adjusted, start the drive motor 16 to drive the threaded rod 15 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod 15 causes the extension column 14 to slide up and down along the length of the guide column 13, thereby changing the height of the bed.
[0064] Direction adjustment: When it is necessary to adjust the direction of the bed, the adjustment mechanism 17 is activated. The adjustment mechanism 17 drives the guide column 13 to rotate around the mounting hole of the base 11 through the motor, thereby changing the direction of the entire bed.
[0065] Not only can the height of the bed be adjusted, but its direction can also be adjusted to meet the individual needs of different patients. The flexible height and direction adjustment helps to improve patient comfort and promote the recovery process. The rolling wheels 12 with locking mechanism allow the nursing auxiliary bed to move freely in the ward and be fixed in a designated position when needed.
[0066] In existing technologies, adjustment mechanisms typically employ simple gear drives, chain drives, or manual adjustments to achieve bed orientation. However, these methods often suffer from insufficient adjustment precision, poor stability, complex operation, and inadequate self-locking performance. The limitations of existing technologies are particularly evident when precise bed orientation adjustment is required to assist patient rehabilitation or daily care. Furthermore, while some existing technologies can achieve orientation adjustment, they are prone to changing direction when power is cut off or external forces are applied, causing inconvenience and safety hazards for patients. To address these issues, this device incorporates a superior transmission method in the adjustment mechanism 17, such as... Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the organization mainly comprises the following components:
[0067] The power motor 17a, mounted on the base 11, is the power source for the adjustment mechanism 17;
[0068] Worm gear 17b is located at the output end of power motor 17a;
[0069] The worm gear 17c is coaxially mounted on the guide column 13 and meshes with the worm 17b. When the worm 17b rotates, the worm gear 17c will rotate accordingly, thereby driving the guide column 13 to rotate and thus changing the direction of the bed.
[0070] A stabilizing member 17d is provided on the base 11, and the worm gear 17b is rotatably disposed in the inner hole of the stabilizing member 17d.
[0071] The working principle of the adjusting mechanism 17 of this device is as follows:
[0072] When the orientation of the bed needs to be adjusted, the power motor 17a is started. The power motor 17a drives the worm 17b to rotate. Since the worm 17b meshes with the worm wheel 17c, the worm wheel 17c will also rotate. The rotation of the worm wheel 17c drives the guide column 13 to rotate around the mounting hole of the base 11, thereby changing the orientation of the entire bed.
[0073] The worm gear 17b and worm wheel 17c transmission system enables highly precise directional adjustment, ensuring the bed can be accurately adjusted to the required angle. The self-locking characteristics of the worm gear 17b and worm wheel 17c ensure that the current direction remains unchanged even when power is cut off, improving system safety. Flexible directional adjustment helps improve patient comfort and promotes the rehabilitation process.
[0074] As a preferred option, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the organization mainly comprises the following components:
[0075] The self-locking motor 91 is mounted on the mounting bracket 2 and is the power source of the flipping mechanism 9. The output end is provided with a connecting shaft 92 for transmitting the rotational motion of the motor.
[0076] A transmission beam 93 is mounted on a connecting shaft 92, and the transmission beam 93 rotates synchronously with the connecting shaft 92.
[0077] The support beam 94 is rotatably mounted on the transmission beam 93, and the other end of the support beam 94 is mounted on the auxiliary plate 8. The design of the support beam 94 allows the auxiliary plate 8 to be angled relative to the intermediate plate 3.
[0078] The auxiliary component 95 is mounted on the mounting bracket 2, and the connecting shaft 92 is rotatably mounted with the auxiliary component 95, providing a stable rotation mounting point for the connecting shaft 92;
[0079] The working principle of the flipping mechanism 9 in this device is as follows:
[0080] When the angle of the auxiliary plate 8 needs to be adjusted, the self-locking motor 91 is started. The self-locking motor 91 drives the connecting shaft 92 to rotate, thereby driving the transmission beam 93 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the transmission beam 93 is transmitted to the auxiliary plate 8 through the support beam 94, so that the auxiliary plate 8 rotates around the end length direction of the intermediate plate 3 to achieve the required angle.
[0081] Using a self-locking motor 91 as the power source, very precise angle adjustment can be achieved, ensuring that the auxiliary plate 8 can be accurately adjusted to the required position. The self-locking characteristic of the self-locking motor 91 can maintain the current angle even when the power supply is stopped, which improves the safety of the system. Flexible angle adjustment helps to improve patient comfort and promote the rehabilitation process.
[0082] As a preferred option, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, a buffer pad 41 is provided on the support plate 4 to buffer the impact when the support plate 4 comes into contact with the mounting frame 2, thereby protecting the patient and the equipment.
[0083] When the support plate 4 rotates downward to its lowest position, the buffer pad 41 will contact the mounting frame 2. The buffer pad 41 absorbs the impact force between the support plate 4 and the mounting frame 2 through its elastic properties, reducing vibration and noise. This buffering effect not only improves the patient's comfort, but also extends the service life of the equipment and reduces damage caused by impact.
[0084] As a preferred option, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, including:
[0085] Four guardrails 10 are respectively set at both ends of the support plate 4 and the auxiliary plate 8. The two guardrails 10 at both ends of the support plate 4 and the two guardrails 10 at both ends of the auxiliary plate 8 are symmetrically arranged. Each guardrail 10 is designed to provide safety protection and prevent patients from accidentally slipping or falling out of bed during use. The guardrails 10 can also be flipped to adapt to the needs of different patients.
[0086] When the guardrails 10 are in the raised position, they form a physical barrier to prevent patients from slipping off the bed or falling out.
[0087] As a preferred option, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the mounting frame 2 is provided with a headboard 21, and the headboard 21 is provided with slots for moving the bed.
[0088] The headboard 21 provides patients with extra safety protection to prevent accidental falls. The slotted design allows caregivers to easily move the bed, improving the ease of operation. The headboard 21 is both beautiful and practical, increasing the overall aesthetics of the bed.
[0089] The medical nursing auxiliary bed of this utility model can be installed, connected or set up in a common mechanical way, and can be implemented as long as it can achieve its beneficial effect.
[0090] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
