[0047] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0048] The following detailed description is an exemplary description, which is intended to provide further detailed description of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical terms used in the present invention have the same meaning as those generally understood by those skilled in the art to which the present application belongs. The terms used in the present invention are only for describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit exemplary embodiments according to the present invention.
[0049] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, an automatic turning mattress is intended to provide automated turning care for long-term bedridden patients, so as to reduce the labor intensity of nursing staff and improve the comfort and nursing quality of patients. The mattress includes a headrest 1, a cushion body 2, a cushion tail 3, a data acquisition module and a control module. One side of the headrest 1 is rotationally connected to the first end of the first rotating shaft 4 and the first end of the second rotating shaft 5, and the second end of the first rotating shaft 4 and the second end of the second rotating shaft 5 are rotationally connected to one side of the cushion tail 3. A power mechanism is arranged in the headrest 1, which is transmission-connected with the first rotating shaft 4 and / or the second rotating shaft 5. The cushion body 2 is annular, sleeved on the first rotating shaft 4 and the second rotating shaft 5, and is used to rotate with the first rotating shaft 4 and / or the second rotating shaft 5. A plurality of lifting components 6 are closely arranged on the outer surface of the cushion body 2, and these lifting components 6 cooperate to lift and lower, so as to gradually push the user to turn over.
[0050] The data acquisition module is arranged on the surface of the mat body 2 and / or the upper part of the mat head 1 and / or the upper part of the mat tail 3, and is used to collect the user's physical state to obtain physical data. The module includes a sensor array, a camera unit and a data integration module. The sensor array is arranged on the outer surface of the mat body 2, and is used to detect the user's body pressure distribution, weight center position, heart rate, breathing rate and / or body temperature to obtain body parameter data. The camera unit is used to capture the user's posture to obtain posture data. The data integration module is used to integrate the body parameter data and posture data to obtain the user's body data.
[0051] The control module is used to receive the body data collected by the data acquisition module, analyze the body data, and obtain the first control instruction and the second control instruction. The first control instruction controls the forward and reverse rotation and the speed of the power mechanism, and the second control instruction controls the coordination between the lifting components 6 to flip the user. The control module includes at least one processor for executing a preset algorithm to analyze the body data collected by the data acquisition module; a storage unit for storing the algorithm, the collected body data, and the working status record of the mattress; an output interface for sending the generated first control instruction to the power mechanism and the second control instruction to the lifting component 6; a user interface for the user or caregiver to input operation instructions and view the working status of the mattress; and a communication module for exchanging data and communicating with an external care monitoring system.
[0052] A support member 7 is provided between the first rotating shaft 4 and the second rotating shaft 5 at the center of the cushion body 2, and the two ends of the support member 7 are respectively fixedly connected to the cushion head 1 and the cushion tail 3, and the support member 7 is slidably connected to the cushion body 2. This structural design enhances the stability and durability of the mattress. The lifting component 6 is a folding airbag, which stretches in the vertical direction when inflated. The cushion body 2 is also provided with an inflation component, each folding airbag is connected by a pipeline, and the inflation component is electrically connected to the control module, so that the inflation is more uniform and controllable.
[0053] The bottom of the headrest 1 and the footrest 3 extend beyond the lower surface of the mattress body 2. When the headrest 1 and the footrest 3 are arranged on the upper surface of the bed, a gap is left between the lower surface of the mattress body 2 and the upper surface of the bed. This design helps the mattress to be stably placed on the bed, and may also help ventilation and cleaning, thereby improving the sanitary conditions of the mattress.
[0054] The control method of the automatic turning over nursing mattress includes the following steps: the control module receives the turning over demand of the user; the data acquisition module is operated to collect the user's physical state in real time to obtain physical data; the control module receives the physical data from the data acquisition module; the processor in the control module analyzes the received physical data; based on the data analysis result, the control module generates a first control instruction and a second control instruction; the first control instruction is executed to control the forward, reverse and rotation speed of the power mechanism to drive the pad body 2 to rotate; the second control instruction is executed to control the lifting and lowering of the lifting components 6 on the outer surface of the pad body 2 to cooperate with the rotation of the pad body 2 to gradually push the user to turn over; in the process of controlling the power mechanism and the lifting components 6, the user's physical reaction is monitored through the data acquisition module to obtain monitoring data; according to the monitoring results, the first control instruction and the second control instruction are adjusted in real time.
[0055] The control method also includes the following steps: receiving a turning-over demand instruction input by a user or a caregiver through a user interface, or automatically monitoring the user's physiological signals and posture changes to determine the turning-over demand; the control module confirms whether the user's turning-over demand is reasonable and necessary based on the input instruction or the monitored physiological signals and posture changes; if the turning-over demand is confirmed, the control module will set the parameters of the turning-over action, including the turning angle, speed and strength, according to the user's physical condition and the working history record of the mattress; the control module selects a preset turning-over program, which is customized according to the user's weight, body shape and past turning-over data to improve the safety and comfort of the turning-over action; the control module dynamically adjusts the turning-over parameters and programs when receiving user feedback or detecting an abnormal situation; before executing the turning-over action, the control module checks whether all components of the mattress are working properly and ensures that the mattress is in a state suitable for executing the turning-over action.
[0056] In a specific implementation, the data acquisition module of the mattress can monitor the user's physical state through a variety of sensor arrays. For example, the pressure sensor can detect the pressure distribution of the user's body to determine the center of the user's weight; the heart rate sensor and the respiratory rate sensor can monitor the user's heart rate and respiratory rate to evaluate the user's physiological state; the body temperature sensor can monitor the user's body temperature to determine whether the user has abnormal conditions such as fever. The camera unit can be installed at an appropriate position on the mattress and analyze the user's posture through image recognition technology to determine whether the user needs to turn over.
[0057] The processor in the control module can execute a preset algorithm based on the collected data to analyze the user's physical condition and turning needs. For example, if the user's body pressure distribution shows that a certain part is under great pressure for a long time, the processor can determine that the user needs to turn over to avoid the occurrence of pressure sores. The processor can also determine whether the user is in a comfortable state and whether the timing and method of turning over need to be adjusted based on the user's physiological parameters such as heart rate, respiratory rate and body temperature.
[0058] The storage unit of the control module can store a large amount of algorithms and user data to facilitate the processor to perform data analysis and decision-making. The output interface can send the first control instruction and the second control instruction generated by the processor to the power mechanism and the lifting component 6 to realize the automatic turning function of the mattress. The user interface can be designed as a touch screen or a button type, which is convenient for the user or caregiver to input operation instructions and view the working status of the mattress. The communication module can enable the mattress to exchange and communicate data with the external care monitoring system to realize remote monitoring and control.
[0059] In the design of the mattress, the bottoms of the headrest 1 and the footrest 3 extend beyond the lower surface of the mattress body 2, so that when the headrest 1 and the footrest 3 are arranged on the upper surface of the bed body, a gap is left between the lower surface of the mattress body 2 and the upper surface of the bed body. This design helps to ventilate and clean the mattress, improves the sanitary conditions of the mattress, and also helps to stably place the mattress on the bed body.
[0060] During the manufacturing process of the mattress, high-strength, wear-resistant materials can be used to manufacture the cushion body 2 and the lifting component 6 to ensure the durability and stability of the mattress. At the same time, waterproof and breathable materials can be used to manufacture the surface of the cushion body 2 to improve the comfort and sanitary conditions of the mattress. During the assembly process of the mattress, a modular design can be used so that the various components of the mattress can be easily disassembled and replaced for easy maintenance and repair.
[0061] In summary, the automatic turning nursing mattress of this embodiment realizes real-time monitoring of the user's physical condition and automatic turning function by integrating multiple sensors and control modules, thereby improving the efficiency and quality of nursing. At the same time, high-strength, wear-resistant, waterproof, and breathable materials are used in the design and manufacturing process of the mattress, as well as modular design, so that the mattress has better durability, stability, comfort, and sanitary conditions. Through this automatic turning nursing mattress, the labor intensity of nursing staff can be effectively reduced, and the comfort and nursing quality of patients can be improved.
[0062] It is known from common technical knowledge that the present invention can be implemented by other embodiments that do not deviate from its spirit or essential features. Therefore, the above disclosed embodiments are only illustrative in all respects and are not exclusive. All changes within the scope of the present invention or within the scope equivalent to the present invention are included in the present invention.
