Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically relating to a limb rehabilitation device for unconscious patients used in intensive care unit care. Background Technology

[0002] Rehabilitation equipment mainly helps patients perform passive movements and daily activities to promote rehabilitation. Most of them are made of stainless steel, iron, plastic, and wood, and are manufactured into the required parts through machining, welding, injection molding and other production processes. Finally, several or hundreds of parts are assembled into rehabilitation equipment. The design is trending towards intelligence. Rehabilitation equipment can meet the patient's daily passive movement of the upper and lower limbs. Timed electric turning care beds can meet the daily turning needs, and electric wheelchairs can meet the needs of walking and standing. Therapists use some equipment to perform passive movements or manual training on the patient's limb function. Patients can also use the equipment for self-training or training under the guidance of therapists.

[0003] Nowadays, hospitals are typically major medical institutions in a region, with a large number of beds capable of providing intensive care and long-term care for many patients simultaneously. Hospitals also house patients with a wide variety of conditions, including unconscious patients. Because these patients have lost movement and cannot move their limbs, they cannot move or change position on their own and must remain in bed, requiring care and attention from others. In this bedridden state, the patient's lumbar region often suffers from a lack of support. Due to inadequate design of traditional bed boards or support systems, the lumbar region lacks effective support, causing the lumbar spine to be in a non-physiological curved state. This lack of support increases pressure on the intervertebral discs, inducing lower back pain, muscle spasms, and even accelerating spinal degenerative changes. Over time, this can lead to chronic pain, postural deformities, or nerve damage, further hindering the rehabilitation process. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings in the existing technology, this utility model provides a limb rehabilitation device for unconscious patients in intensive care unit care, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background technology.

[0024] like Figure 1-3As shown, a limb rehabilitation device for unconscious patients in intensive care unit care is disclosed. In this embodiment, the device includes a main body 1 and a bed board 2 fixed to the main body 1. A rectangular opening 21 is provided in the middle of the bed board 2, extending along the length of the bed board. Two smooth rods 22 are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the bottom edge of the opening 21, i.e., the bottom surface of the bed board 2. The smooth rods 22 are fixed to the bottom surface of the bed board 2 by fixing blocks 221. A sliding plate 3 is slidably connected to the smooth rod 22. Sliding blocks 33 are provided on both sides of the sliding plate 3, with two on one side. The sliding blocks 33 form a sliding engagement with the smooth rods 22 through through holes, allowing the sliding plate 3 to slide along the smooth rods 22. A push plate 32 is fixed at the bottom of the sliding plate 3. The push plate 32 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of a first electric telescopic cylinder 34. The first electric telescopic cylinder 34 is installed inside the main body 1 and fixed by a mounting bracket. When energized, the telescopic rod can push the push plate 32, thereby causing the sliding plate 3 to slide along the smooth rods 22, achieving horizontal position adjustment.

[0025] Among them, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 A rectangular groove 31 is formed on the sliding plate 3, and the rectangular groove 31 is a through groove design that penetrates the thickness of the sliding plate 3. A lifting mechanism is provided below the rectangular groove 31. The lifting mechanism includes a mounting box 41 and a second electric telescopic cylinder 42. The mounting box 41 is fixed to the bottom of the sliding plate 3, and its upper opening is aligned with the rectangular groove 31 to allow the lumbar support 4 to extend. The second electric telescopic cylinder 42 is vertically installed in the mounting box 41, with its telescopic end facing upward and its end fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the lumbar support 4. The surface of the lumbar support 4 is covered with a silicone cushioning layer. When the second electric telescopic cylinder 42 is energized, it can drive the lumbar support 4 to rise and fall vertically, adjusting the height to accommodate different body positions. The first electric telescopic cylinder 34 and the second electric telescopic cylinder 42 are electrically connected to an external control device.

[0026] For further details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 The main body 1 has guardrails 11 fixed on both sides. The guardrails 11 are made of stainless steel and are used to prevent patients from falling accidentally. Self-locking casters 12 are installed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the main body 1.

[0027] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: After the device is powered on, the first electric telescopic cylinder 34 is powered on, and the telescopic rod pushes the push plate 32, which drives the sliding plate 3 to slide along the smooth rod 22. This allows the horizontal position of the lumbar support 4 to be adjusted to accommodate patients of different body shapes. The second electric telescopic cylinder 42 can also be activated to drive the lumbar support 4 to rise and fall vertically. Thus, the lumbar support 4 can adjust its height and position according to the patient's body position, so that the waist is supported and the lumbar spine is prevented from being in a non-physiological curved state. The guardrails 11 on both sides of the main body 1 prevent the patient from falling, and the self-locking universal wheels 12 on the bottom of the main body 1 facilitate movement and fixation. The entire device, through the height-adjustable and sliding design of the lumbar support 4, solves the problem of the lack of effective support in traditional bed boards and promotes the rehabilitation process of unconscious patients.
