Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical stretchers and relates to a detachable rescue stretcher and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Stretchers are essential equipment for medical rescue operations. In emergencies such as war, earthquakes, and landslides, they fulfill the crucial task of quickly and safely transporting the wounded. These scenarios often involve large numbers of casualties, often with complex injuries such as fractures, internal organ damage, or hypothermia. Any carelessness during transport can lead to secondary injuries, such as fracture displacement, wound lacerations, or a further drop in body temperature, posing significant challenges to treatment. Therefore, designing a safe, convenient, and adaptable stretcher for various rescue scenarios is crucial for improving patient care and reducing transport risks.

[0003] Existing stretcher trolleys have several functional and design limitations that restrict their use in complex environments. First, most stretcher trolleys utilize an integrated design, with the stretcher and trolley body inseparable. This makes them suitable only for use on flat roads and impractical for use in mountainous terrain, rugged terrain, or confined spaces. For example, in areas with poor road conditions, stretcher trolleys are difficult to navigate, requiring rescue workers to rely on manual handling, which increases physical exertion and the risk of secondary injuries. Second, the lifting mechanisms of existing stretcher trolleys often utilize hydraulic or simple mechanical structures, resulting in a limited lifting range and difficulty meeting the height requirements of different rescue scenarios. They are also difficult to fold and occupy a large space during transportation and storage. For example, some stretcher trolleys are still bulky even when folded, making them difficult to carry in the field. Furthermore, the width of the stretcher's load-bearing surface is typically fixed, preventing flexible adjustment based on the patient's size. When transporting larger or smaller patients, a fixed-width stretcher may result in the load-bearing surface being too narrow or too loose, compromising handling comfort and stability. For example, the utility model patent with publication number CN213993958U discloses a stretcher with adjustable strut length, which is connected to the load-bearing surface through a fixed ring. However, after the width is adjusted, the load-bearing surface cannot be effectively tensioned, which limits its scope of use.

[0004] Cleaning and disinfection are another major problem with existing stretcher trolleys. Since the stretcher surface is usually fixed to the frame and difficult to disassemble, it is difficult to clean thoroughly after use. Repeated use may lead to the risk of cross-infection, especially in epidemics or large-scale rescue of casualties. This problem is particularly prominent. In addition, existing stretcher trolleys need to directly contact and lift the body of the injured many times during the transportation process, which increases the possibility of secondary injury. For example, patients with fractures or internal organ injuries may worsen their injuries due to vibrations or improper operation during frequent lifting. The rescue needs in low-temperature environments have not been fully met. Existing stretcher trolleys generally lack insulation functions and cannot provide support for rescue of hypothermic patients or in cold environments, which may cause the injuries to worsen.

[0005] Portability is a key requirement in field rescue operations, but existing stretcher designs rarely incorporate folding or portability features. Rescuers must carry bulky stretcher equipment, increasing the logistical burden. This is especially true during long-distance rescue operations, where the weight and size of the stretcher become limiting factors. Furthermore, existing stretcher carts are difficult to operate when loading and unloading, requiring multiple people to lift the injured person, which is inefficient and can easily cause injury.

[0006] In summary, the existing stretcher has the following major defects:

[0007] 1. The stretcher is an integrated design. The stretcher and the body cannot be disassembled. It is only suitable for flat roads and has limited use in the wild or on rugged terrain.

[0008] 2. The lifting mechanism has a limited range, making storage and transportation inconvenient;

[0009] 3. The injured person needs to be lifted directly multiple times during transportation, which may cause secondary injuries;

[0010] 4. The width of the stretcher cannot be adjusted to accommodate patients of different sizes, and the load-bearing surface is prone to loosening after adjustment;

[0011] 5. The stretcher surface is difficult to disassemble and clean, which poses a risk of cross infection;

[0012] 6. Lack of heat preservation function, unable to meet the rescue needs of low temperature environment or hypothermia casualties;

[0013] 7. Poor portability, difficult to carry during field rescue. Summary of the Invention

[0034] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0035] The present invention provides a detachable rescue stretcher and its use method. Compared with the existing technology, it has significant technical advantages and practical value. It can effectively solve many problems of existing stretchers in rescue scenarios, including limited application scenarios, easy secondary injuries during transportation, non-adjustable width, difficult cleaning, lack of thermal insulation function, and insufficient portability. The following details the beneficial effects of the present invention from multiple aspects:

[0036] 1. Detachable design to expand application scenarios

[0037] The stretcher trolley of the present invention adopts a detachable design, which flexibly connects the stretcher and the trolley body through a snap-on structure, solving the problem of limited application of the integrated design of traditional stretcher trolleys in different scenarios. The trolley body is equipped with a lifting mechanism and universal wheels, which is suitable for flat roads, such as urban roads or inside hospitals, and can transport the wounded quickly and smoothly; and the stretcher can be disassembled separately, which is suitable for scenes that are difficult for the trolley body to reach, such as wild mountains, rugged terrain or narrow spaces. This design realizes the flexible switching of the same equipment in multiple rescue environments, significantly expanding the scope of application. For example, in earthquake rescue, the stretcher can be separated for primary rescue in the ruins, and then combined with the trolley body after reaching a flat road, which improves the continuity and efficiency of the rescue.

[0038] 2. The width is adjustable to accommodate patients of different sizes

[0039] The stretcher uses a screw to adjust the frame width, and combines multiple sets of zippers to connect the load-bearing cloth, allowing for flexible width adjustment. Traditional stretchers have a fixed width and are difficult to adapt to patients with large body sizes. This can cause the load-bearing surface to be too narrow, affecting comfort, or too wide, causing looseness and reducing handling stability. The present invention uses a screw to drive the long support rod to move, and selects a suitable zipper combination to ensure that the load-bearing cloth always remains in a tensioned state, solving the problem of loose load-bearing surface after width adjustment. This design can accommodate children, adults, or larger patients, enhancing the comfort and safety of transportation while improving the versatility of the equipment.

[0040] 3. Highly portable, suitable for field rescue

[0041] The stretcher's frame is composed of short folding sections that are folded using a hinged and sleeve structure. After folding, it can be loaded into a matching backpack, making it easy for rescuers to carry. Traditional stretchers are large, which increases the logistical burden during field rescues. However, the folding design of the present invention significantly reduces the difficulty of transportation and storage. In addition, the double shoulder straps are connected to the stretcher via buckles, allowing the shoulders to bear the weight instead of lifting with both hands, reducing the physical exertion of rescuers and improving the efficiency of long-distance transportation. This portability and ergonomic design are particularly suitable for rescue in the wild or remote areas, reducing logistical pressure and improving the mobility of rescue operations.

[0042] 4. Heat preservation function to meet the needs of low temperature environment

[0043] The carrier cloth and the covering cloth have built-in heating wires, which are powered by an external power supply interface and can provide thermal insulation in low-temperature environments or when rescuing hypothermic patients. Existing stretcher carts generally lack thermal insulation designs, which may cause the patient's body temperature to drop further in cold environments, aggravating the injury. The heating wire design of the present invention can effectively maintain the patient's body temperature, especially in high-altitude cold areas or night-time rescue scenarios, significantly reducing the risk of worsening injuries caused by hypothermia. The covering cloth is fixed with Velcro, which is not only easy to operate, but also can effectively wrap the patient, further improving the thermal insulation effect and stability during transportation.

[0044] 5. Easy to disassemble and clean, reducing the risk of cross infection

[0045] The stretcher's carrying cloth is quickly connected to the frame via a zipper, making it easy to disassemble and facilitate cleaning and disinfection. Traditional stretchers often have fixed load-bearing surfaces, which are difficult to clean and can lead to cross-infection after repeated use, a risk that is particularly high during epidemics or large-scale casualty rescue operations. The detachable carrying cloth design of the present invention allows rescuers to quickly replace the cloth with a clean one, reducing the risk of infection. Furthermore, the carrying cloth can be carried in bulk, meeting the needs of large-scale rescue operations and improving the management efficiency and sanitation safety of the equipment.

[0046] 6. Smooth lifting and lowering to reduce secondary injuries

[0047] The lifting mechanism of the vehicle body adopts four sets of scissor-shaped telescopic arms, which realize synchronous lifting and lowering through screw rods and connecting rods to ensure the stability of the load-bearing plate for the injured. Traditional stretcher carts have a limited lifting range or insufficient stability, and secondary injuries may be caused by vibration during transportation. The scissor-shaped telescopic arm design of the present invention combines electric and manual drive modes, supports flexible height adjustment, and is suitable for different rescue scenarios, such as getting on and off ambulances or transferring hospital beds. The hydraulic buckle realizes one-button unlocking, simplifies the connection and separation operation of the stretcher and the vehicle body, reduces the direct lifting of the injured during transportation, and significantly reduces the risk of secondary injuries such as fracture displacement or wound laceration.

[0048] 7. Easy operation and improved rescue efficiency

[0049] This invention optimizes the operational process through hydraulic buckles, zipper connections, and dual shoulder straps. The sleeping pad buckle utilizes a hydraulic principle, allowing for quick release with the push of a button. The stretcher buckle is secured with a slider and curved clips, making it easy and secure to operate. The buckled connection between the dual shoulder straps and the stretcher reduces arm fatigue, making it suitable for prolonged transport. These features collectively improve the convenience and efficiency of rescue operations, particularly during high-intensity, continuous rescue missions, saving rescuers' energy and enhancing overall rescue capabilities.

[0050] 8. Multifunctional integration to meet complex rescue needs

[0051] The present invention integrates multiple functions, including a detachable structure, width adjustment, foldable and portable, heat preservation and heating, and hydraulic buckles, which comprehensively improve the practicality of the equipment. The backpack can store supplies such as first aid kits, spare carrying cloths and batteries, enhancing logistical support capabilities. The switching between electric and manual lifting modes adapts to the use requirements under different power conditions and ensures normal operation in power outages or emergency situations. This multifunctional design enables the stretcher to cope with a variety of complex scenarios such as urban rescue, field rescue, and post-disaster reconstruction, demonstrating high adaptability and reliability.

[0052] In summary, the detachable rescue stretcher of the present invention significantly improves rescue efficiency and safety through its innovative design, addressing the shortcomings of traditional stretchers in terms of application scenarios, handling safety, cleanability, and portability. Its flexible disassembly structure, smooth lifting mechanism, convenient operation, and heat-insulating and clean functions make it widely applicable in various rescue environments, providing efficient and reliable support for the treatment of the wounded.

By selecting different zippers for connection to the long struts 11, the width of the carrier cloth 2 can be adjusted to maintain tension and prevent slack. One side of the carrier cloth 2 is connected to the cover cloth 5, which is equipped with multiple Velcro strips for attachment to the carrier cloth 2 to cover the patient. Both the carrier cloth 2 and the cover cloth 5 have built-in heating wires connected to a power source to provide insulation for patients in low-temperature environments or those experiencing hypothermia.

[0095] 2.3 Backpack 3 and shoulder straps 4

[0096] Backpack 3 is made of waterproof nylon and is used to store supplies such as a folded stretcher, a first aid kit, and batteries. The shoulder straps 4 are equipped with buckles, and buckles 14 are located at each end of the long support rod 11. When the stretcher is unfolded, the shoulder straps 4 are connected via buckles 14, allowing the shoulder straps 4 to bear the weight, reducing arm fatigue. The backpack 3 and shoulder straps 4 are detachably connected via buckles, allowing for flexible configuration and portability.

[0097] The stretcher in this embodiment is used as follows:

[0098] 1. Adjust the width of the stretcher: According to the patient's size, rotate the screw 13 of the frame 1 to adjust the spacing between the long struts 11. Select the appropriate zipper on the carrier cloth 2 to connect it to the long struts 11. Rotate the screw 13 to tighten the carrier cloth 2, ensuring there is no slack. The stopper 15 fixes the screw 13 in place to prevent width changes.

[0099] 2. Position the injured person: Lift the injured person onto the stretcher and place them on the carrier cloth 2, with their head at the front. Secure the cover cloth 5 with Velcro to wrap the injured person. If the ambient temperature is low or the injured person is experiencing hypothermia, connect the power cord to activate the heating element to maintain body temperature.

[0100] 3. Carrying the wounded: In complex terrain (such as mountains), the stretcher is separated, and the rescuers connect the buckle 14 of the long support rod 11 with the buckle of the double shoulder strap 4, and use the shoulders to carry the stretcher to reduce arm fatigue. On flat roads (such as city roads), the stretcher is fixedly installed on the wounded load-bearing plate 8 by the stretcher buckle 83, the arc-shaped clamp fastens the long support rod 11, and the knob is locked. The sleeping pad 82 slides into the groove guide rail of the load-bearing plate 81 through the roller, and the tooth 851 of the sleeping pad buckle 85 is clamped into the groove and fixed. According to the target height (such as an ambulance or a hospital bed), the height of the lifting mechanism is adjusted by electric mode (the motor group 17 drives the screw rod 9) or manual mode (inserting the crank to rotate the screw rod 9) and pushed to the target position.

[0101] 4. Hospital transfer: After arriving at the hospital, press the button 853 of the sleeping pad buckle 85, and the hydraulic pressure will separate the teeth 851 to release the sleeping pad 82; unfasten the knob of the stretcher buckle 83, disassemble the stretcher, and place the injured person together with the carrying cloth 2 on the bed to reduce direct lifting and reduce the risk of secondary injury.

[0102] 5. Folding and Storage: After use, rotate sleeve 122 to remove the hinge point, fold the long and short struts 11 and 12, and place them in backpack 3. Backpack 3 will store the spare carrier cloth 2 and first aid supplies. Remove the carrier cloth 2, clean and disinfect it (using medical alcohol or high-temperature disinfection), wipe the body of the backpack, fold it to the lowest height, and store it in a dry environment.

[0103] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not limiting. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solutions, which should all be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
