[0015] To make the contents of the present invention more clearly understood, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Identical parts are denoted by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "up," and "down" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, and the terms "inward" and "outward" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a particular component, respectively.
[0016] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a pillow for facilitating patient turning over comprises a pillow body 1 and a turning pad 4. The pillow body 1 is 1 to 1.5 meters long, with a semicircular upper end having a rubber protrusion 2 on its surface. The protrusion 2 is made of soft rubber and has an overall diamond shape. The outer side of the pillow body 1 is provided with a pillowcase that completely covers the protrusion 2. The pillowcase is made of anti-fouling fabric, and a temperature-sensitive color-changing fabric 3 is fixed to one side of the pillowcase. The pillow body 1 is used to facilitate the patient's leaning on the pillow to prevent a stiff neck. The turning pad 4 is located on one side of the pillow body 1 and is detachably connected to the lower end of the pillow body 1 via Velcro. The width of the turning pad 4 is less than the length of the pillow body 1. The upper surface of the turning pad 4 has multiple anti-slip grooves 5 for facilitating patient turning over. The pillow body 1 has a sponge layer near the protrusion 2. The sponge layer is covered with breathable fabric to facilitate heat dissipation at the head position and improve overall user comfort.
[0017] Side shields 8 are symmetrically fixed to either side of the pillow body 1. These shields are made of silicone and feature a rounded top. These shields support the top of the pillow body 1 and limit the maximum horizontal distance a person can lie down. When lying down, the head forms a depression on the surface of the pillow body 1. At this point, the side shields 8 deform to form inward-facing slopes, limiting movement.
[0018] A water storage pipe 6 is fixed to the inside of the pillow body 1. Made of rubber, it consists of multiple parallel, end-to-end pipes. A waterproof cloth is secured to the outside of the pipe 6, removably attached to the pillow body 1 via a snap. One side of the pipe 6 has a water inlet 10, which connects to the pipe 6 via a hose. A water outlet 9 is located on one side of the inlet 10, connected to the pipe 6 via a hose. A sealing cap is threadedly connected to the outlet 9 and the inlet 10, controlling water flow. One-way valves 7 are located inside the pipe 6, connected to the pipe 6 via glue. Two valves 7 are arranged in a set, tilted toward the outlet 9 to control water flow in one direction. The pipe 6 maintains full contact with the surface of the pillow body 1, allowing for heat exchange and improving overall heat dissipation.
[0019] The lower end of the pillow body 1 is provided with a partition 11, the opening of which faces the turning pad 4. The partition 11 is entirely made of elastic fabric and is used to store the rolled turning pad 4. The lower end of the turning pad 4 is provided with a rubber anti-slip patch that increases friction when laying the pad and prevents the turning pad 4 from shifting.
[0020] During use, a caregiver can connect the water inlet 10 with a pipe and release water inside. After confirming that the water is fully filled, the water inlet 10 is sealed. The patient can then lean on the pillow body 1 and open the water outlet 1 to slowly release water, thereby adjusting the height of the pillow body 1. The patient can then unfold the turning pad 4 so that the body can be completely placed on the turning pad 4. When lying down, the protrusion 2 will cooperate with the pillow body 1 to stabilize the head in one position to prevent movement. At the same time, the temperature-sensitive color-changing cloth 3 will change color according to the temperature inside the water pipe 6. If the temperature is too high, it will change color, reminding the caregiver to turn the patient over. When turning over, the patient can hold the turning pad 4 on one side and lift it up to change the patient's posture, thus achieving a complete turn.
[0021] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
