Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical devices, and in particular to a bird's nest type vibrating water bed for newborns that can be placed in an incubator. Background Art

[0002] Newborns, especially premature and low-birth-weight infants, have unique physiological and developmental needs. Immediately after birth, they face the challenge of adapting to a completely new environment. Premature and frail newborns, in particular, have immature nervous systems, respiratory systems, and thermoregulatory functions. They urgently need a uterine-like environment to mitigate environmental stress responses. After all, the feeling of being enveloped in the womb, the gentle vibrations, and the support provided by liquids are familiar and reliant on them. From a postural and skeletal perspective, traditional hard mattresses have drawbacks, often leading to hyperextension and abnormal posture. The bird's nest design cleverly addresses this issue. Its all-around support keeps newborns in a flexed position similar to that of the fetus, which promotes natural bone and muscle growth. Furthermore, the gentle vibrations of the Bird's Nest vibrating waterbed for newborns closely mimic the roaming sensation experienced by the mother walking. This simulated roaming sensation provides a sense of security and soothes the newborn, significantly reducing crying. At the same time, it can also make the newborn's heart rate and respiratory rhythm more stable and reduce unnecessary energy consumption.

[0003] At present, newborns are generally placed directly in incubators, and the inside of the incubator is heated to maintain the body temperature of the patient. In the incubator, a towel or a pad is usually placed at the bottom before the newborn is placed, which ensures the comfort of the newborn during supervision to a certain extent. However, there are no specially designed vibrating water beds in the current incubators, and the breathing of the newborn cannot be stimulated by vibration, especially for the possible respiratory arrest in premature infants. There are also no corresponding monitoring methods and alarm functions, and there are still defects to a certain extent.

[0004] Therefore, a newborn bird's nest type vibrating water bed that can be placed in an incubator is needed to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical issues, the present invention discloses a bird's nest-like vibrating waterbed for newborns that can be placed in an incubator. Designed in a bird's nest-like structure, the device uses a U-shaped or ring-shaped cushion to wrap around the newborn, limiting involuntary limb movement and reducing awakenings caused by the startle reflex (Moro reflex). The device also provides dynamic support through a liquid medium, simulating the buoyancy and fluidity of amniotic fluid to avoid localized pressure concentrations. The device is also equipped with a vibration module for vibration, and features respiratory monitoring and alarm functions, providing feedback to medical staff on the newborn's current condition, facilitating timely intervention.

[0006] In order to achieve the above technical effects, the present invention designs a bird's nest-type vibrating water bed for newborns that can be placed in an incubator, comprising: a base, a support assembly, a U-shaped water pillow, and a weighing device; the weighing device is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the base, and the U-shaped water pillow is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the weighing device; a fixing belt is fixedly mounted on one side of the upper end of the U-shaped water pillow, an air bag is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the fixing belt, and a Velcro is fixedly mounted on the other side wall of the U-shaped water pillow; a wrapping effect is achieved by fixing the fixing belt to the other end of the U-shaped water pillow; the support assembly is symmetrically mounted on the side wall of the base, and the entire device is fixed inside the incubator by arranging the support assembly;

[0007] Furthermore, a circulation pipe is fixedly provided at the lower part of the side end of the U-shaped water pillow, and the circulation pipe is connected to a circulation pump provided inside the base;

[0008] Furthermore, the support assembly includes a support rod, a support plate, and a spring, wherein the spring is fixedly installed inside the base, the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the support rod, and the end of the support rod is fixedly installed with the support plate;

[0009] Furthermore, a groove for accommodating the support plate is provided on the side wall of the base, and a depression is fixedly provided on one side of the groove;

[0010] Furthermore, a plurality of temperature sensors are fixedly provided around the lower end of the U-shaped water pillow for detecting the current body temperature of the newborn;

[0011] Furthermore, a monitoring bracelet is fixedly provided at the lower end of the airbag, and the monitoring bracelet is used to monitor the heart rate and blood oxygen saturation of the newborn;

[0012] Furthermore, an alarm device is provided on both sides of the base, located in the middle of the supporting assembly, and an indicator light is provided on the alarm device.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0014] The present invention designs a bird's nest type vibrating water bed for newborns that can be placed in an incubator, comprising: a base, a support assembly, a U-shaped water pillow, and a weighing device; the weighing device is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the base, and the U-shaped water pillow is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the weighing device;

[0015] By wrapping the newborn in a U-shaped water pillow, unconscious limb swinging can be restricted, reducing awakenings caused by the startle reflex (Moro reflex). At the same time, the U-shaped water pillow provides dynamic support through the liquid medium, simulating the buoyancy and fluidity of amniotic fluid to avoid local pressure concentration. Furthermore, as the U-shaped water pillow circulates through the circulation pipe and circulation pump, the liquid medium can circulate to simulate the state of amniotic fluid. The circulation pump can also act as a vibration device, generating tiny vibrations through the pump body's own vibrations to stimulate the newborn, allowing the liquid medium in the U-shaped water pillow to flow to simulate amniotic fluid, while also achieving the vibration function.

[0016] At the same time, a monitoring bracelet is fixed at the lower end of the airbag, which is used to monitor the heart rate and blood oxygen saturation of the newborn. The alarm device can provide feedback and alarm on the current heart rate, blood oxygen saturation and respiratory status of the newborn according to the set threshold value, and can feedback the current status of the newborn to medical staff so that medical staff can take timely measures. It is convenient and practical. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] Example 1

[0026] A bird's nest-like vibrating water bed for newborns that can be placed in an incubator comprises: a base 1, a support assembly 2, a U-shaped water pillow 5, and a weighing device 4; the weighing device 4 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the base 1 and is used to detect the weight of the newborn so that feedback can be provided to medical staff at any time; the U-shaped water pillow 5 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the weighing device 4; a fixing belt 52 is fixedly mounted on one side of the upper end of the U-shaped water pillow 5, and an air bag 53 is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the fixing belt 52; a Velcro 54 is fixedly mounted on the other side wall of the U-shaped water pillow 5; the fixing belt 52 is fixed to the other end of the U-shaped water pillow 5 to achieve a wrapping effect for the newborn; the support assembly 2 is symmetrically mounted on the side wall of the base 1, and the entire device is fixed inside the incubator by providing the support assembly 2; when the water bed is placed in the incubator, the newborn is placed in the U-shaped water pillow, and the fixing belt 52 and Velcro 54 cooperate to wrap the newborn, providing surrounding support similar to a bird's nest, limiting the newborn's unconscious limb swinging, and reducing awakening caused by the startle reflex.

[0027] At the same time, in this embodiment, a circulation pipe 51 is fixedly provided at the lower part of the side end of the U-shaped water pillow. Through the provided circulation pipe 51, the liquid inside the U-shaped water pillow 5 can circulate and flow, making it fluid, so as to simulate the environment in the amniotic fluid. At the same time, the liquid placed in the U-shaped water pillow 5 is not limited to water; the liquid used to simulate amniotic fluid can also be prevented. The circulation pipe 51 is connected to the circulation pump 7 provided inside the base 1. At the same time, the circulation pump 7 can also be used as a vibration method to provide vibration stimulation while working; the vibration method can be replaced by a vibration plate, and the frequency of the vibration can be adjusted; for example, a 0.9% sodium chloride solution (physiological saline) is the basic component, and then an appropriate amount of potassium chloride, calcium chloride, etc. are added, and then an appropriate amount of protein and sugar are added, and hyaluronic acid is added; in order to simulate the concentration and viscosity of amniotic fluid, it can more closely simulate the state of amniotic fluid when it is flowing when it is circulated again.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] In this embodiment, based on the support assembly 2 described in Example 1, the support assembly 2 includes a support rod 22, a support plate 21, and a spring. The spring is fixedly installed inside the base 1, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the support rod 22. The end of the support rod 22 is fixedly installed with the support plate 21. When the water bed is placed in the incubator, the support plate 21 cooperates with the structure inside the incubator, and the spring provides a certain buffering and supporting force, so that the water bed is stably fixed in the incubator. For example, when the support plate 21 is inserted into the corresponding position of the incubator, the elastic action of the spring ensures that the water bed will not shake in the incubator, ensuring the safety and comfort of the newborn. At the same time, a groove 12 for accommodating the support plate 21 is provided on the side wall of the base 1, and a recess 11 is fixedly provided on one side of the groove 12. The groove 12 can accommodate the support plate 21, and the setting of the recess 11 facilitates the removal of the support plate 21.

[0030] Example 3

[0031] In this embodiment, in order to effectively monitor the condition of the newborn, a plurality of temperature sensors 6 are fixedly installed around the lower end of the U-shaped water pillow 5 to monitor the current body temperature of the newborn. Since the temperature sensors 6 are placed between the weighing device 4 and the U-shaped water pillow 5, they measure the core body temperature of the newborn, not the ambient temperature of the incubator. The temperature sensors 6 can be infrared temperature sensors 6 to achieve wireless monitoring.

[0032] At the same time, in this embodiment, a monitoring bracelet 55 is fixedly provided at the lower end of the airbag 53. The monitoring bracelet 55 is used to monitor the heart rate and blood oxygen saturation of the newborn. The outside of the detection bracelet is wrapped with a flexible material, which can effectively detect while protecting the skin of the child from pressure. The detection principle of the detection bracelet is similar to the principle of measuring heart rate and blood oxygen saturation of the Xiaomi bracelet in the prior art, and no further explanation is given here; in addition, an alarm device is also provided on both sides of the base 1, located in the middle of the support assembly 2, and an indicator light 31 is provided on the alarm device.

[0033] In order to effectively detect the vital signs of the child and provide a corresponding alarm function, in this embodiment, the breathing detection of the ventilator and the blood oxygen saturation detection are used as the detection standard, the tentative breathing time is 15s as the standard, and the blood oxygen concentration is 94% as the standard; specifically:

[0034] When the child's breathing is temporarily paused for 15 seconds or the blood oxygen concentration drops below 94%, the alarm device sends an alarm message to the guardian's mobile phone (or external device to prevent the alarm sound from irritating the newborn), and the indicator light 31 continues to flash to remind medical staff of the emergency. After the medical staff handles the situation, the reset button on the alarm device is used to reset it. After resetting, the device enters normal detection again and continues monitoring.

[0035] At the same time, the alarm device in the above embodiment can also use a loudspeaker to remind by continuously flashing the indicator light 31. However, it is necessary to ensure that the decibel of the loudspeaker does not exceed 45, otherwise the alarm sound will irritate the newborn and affect the newborn.

[0036] The preferred embodiments of the present invention disclosed above are only used to help illustrate the present invention. The preferred embodiments do not describe all details in detail, nor do they limit the invention to only the specific implementation methods described.
