Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a quilt support frame designed with a temperature control and adjustment function, which is suitable for hospitals and is used for supporting and keeping warm quilts. Background Art
[0002] In medical care, home care and various rehabilitation institutions, blanket supports are widely used as auxiliary equipment to support and fix blankets, clothing and other items to ensure the comfort and cleanliness of patients. However, the design of traditional blanket supports is often limited to the basic support function, ignoring the comprehensive needs of temperature control, material safety and ease of use in practical applications.
[0003] 1. Lack of temperature control requirements
[0004] Traditional blanket supports, whether made of metal or plastic, mostly only have a simple frame structure and support function, and cannot adjust the temperature according to the ambient temperature or patient needs. In medical care, for patients who need to keep warm, such as those after surgery, after childbirth, or those who are frail and sick, traditional blanket supports cannot provide a suitable warm environment, which may cause the patient's body temperature to drop, increase the risk of infection, and delay the recovery process.
[0005] 2. Limitations of materials and structural design
[0006] In terms of material selection, traditional blanket supports are mostly made of metal or hard plastic. Although these materials are strong and durable, they lack sufficient softness and comfort, and can easily cause pressure or discomfort to patients. In terms of structural design, traditional blanket supports often lack adjustability and cannot be personalized according to the patient's height, body shape or specific needs, which limits their scope of application and comfort.
[0007] 3. Insufficient security and ease of use
[0008] In terms of safety, traditional blanket supports may cause injuries to patients due to unreasonable design or improper materials when fixing and supporting blankets and clothes. For example, sharp edges, unstable structures or easily detached parts may pose a potential threat to patients. In terms of usability, traditional blanket supports often lack convenient adjustment mechanisms and operating interfaces, making it difficult or inconvenient for medical staff or family members to operate.
[0009] In summary, traditional blanket support frames have many deficiencies in temperature control, material safety and ease of use, and cannot meet the high requirements for comfort and safety in modern medical care and home care. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a blanket support frame with temperature control function to solve the problems existing in the prior art. This new blanket support frame should have a temperature adjustment function and be able to perform precise temperature control according to the ambient temperature or patient needs; at the same time, the patient's comfort and safety should be fully considered in material selection and structural design; in addition, it should also have a convenient adjustment mechanism and operation interface to improve its ease of use and practicality.

[0035] Example:
[0036] This embodiment provides a quilt support frame with temperature control and adjustment function
[0037] 1. Structural composition and manufacturing
[0038] Support frame structure
[0039] Left support frame 10 and right support frame 20:
[0040] The left support frame 10 and the right support frame 20 are symmetrically designed, and each support frame is composed of fixed columns 30 corresponding to each other and arranged in parallel, and the fixed columns 30 can be directly placed on the bed surface;
[0041] Between the upper and lower fixed columns 30, a plurality of support arms 40 are arranged at equal intervals, which are arranged vertically and are retractable support arms, and are composed of an outer tube 41 and an inner tube 42 which is nested in the outer tube 41 and can slide up and down relative to the outer tube 41;
[0042] The support arm 40 located at the middle position has a buckle-type locking mechanism 50 disposed on its outer tube 41 at the telescopic opening, and a plurality of slots 421 corresponding to the buckle-type locking mechanism 50 are disposed at equal intervals from top to bottom on the outer wall of the inner tube 42. The user can lock the inner tube 42 at a desired height position by pressing the buckle button 51;
[0043] Specific structure
[0044] Outer tube and inner tube:
[0045] Outer tube: As the main structural part of the support arm, its inner wall is smooth to accommodate the sliding of the inner tube;
[0046] Inner tube: nested in the outer tube and can slide up and down relative to the outer tube to adjust the length of the support arm.
[0047] Snap-on locking mechanism:
[0048] Position: It is set on the outer tube, at the telescopic opening (i.e. the opening where the inner tube and the outer tube slide relative to each other);
[0049] Structure: The snap-on locking mechanism is mainly composed of a snap-on button, a snap-on spring and a snap-on lock tongue. The snap-on button is located on the surface of the outer tube for easy operation by the user; the snap-on spring is used to provide the resetting force of the snap-on lock tongue; and the snap-on lock tongue is used to lock with the slot on the inner tube.

[0051] Position: Set on the outer wall of the inner tube, arranged at equal distances from top to bottom;
[0052] Structure: Each card slot is a recessed notch, the shape and size of which matches the card buckle lock tongue so that the card buckle lock tongue can be smoothly inserted and locked.
[0053] Implementation
[0054] Adjust the support arm length:
[0055] The user first grasps the outer tube and the inner tube, and then pulls the inner tube outward to slide it relative to the outer tube, thereby adjusting the length of the support arm.
[0056] Locking support arm length:
[0057] When the inner tube slides to the desired height position, the user presses the buckle button, at which time the buckle spring is compressed and the buckle lock tongue moves accordingly;
[0058] The user continues to move the inner tube slightly (if necessary) until the buckle locking tongue aligns with a slot on the inner tube;
[0059] When the buckle button is released, the buckle spring releases energy to push the buckle lock tongue into the buckle slot, thereby locking the length of the support arm.
[0060] Unlock support arm length:
[0061] When the length of the support arm needs to be adjusted again, the user only needs to press the buckle button again to make the buckle lock tongue come out of the slot;
[0062] Through the above-mentioned specific structure and implementation method, the support arm located in the middle position can achieve precise length adjustment and stable locking, providing users with a more convenient and comfortable use experience.

[0084] First connection plug: This plug is electrically connected to the heating element and is used to connect the intelligent thermostat and the heating element in series. The user only needs to insert the first connection plug into the corresponding socket of the heating element to realize the intelligent thermostat controlling the heating element;
[0085] Second connection plug: This plug is used to connect the power supply. The user only needs to insert the second connection plug into the power socket to provide a stable power supply for the smart thermostat. The smart thermostat is equipped with overload protection and short circuit protection safety measures to ensure the stability and safety of the power connection.
[0086] Temperature sensor 90:
[0087] The temperature sensor 90 is disposed at the lower end of one of the brackets 72 of the heating rack and is electrically connected to the intelligent temperature controller 80. The temperature sensor 90 is used to monitor the temperature of the heating rack in real time and feed back the temperature information to the intelligent temperature controller 80 so that the intelligent temperature controller 80 can perform precise control according to the set temperature.
