[0002] In the field of medical treatment bed equipment, bed body mobility is a basic and essential function. A common way is to use mechanical structure to lift the bed body to adapt to different medical operation needs. Specifically, when the bed body needs to be moved, the bed body is lifted by the lifting mechanism, at which time the bed body caster is in contact with the ground, facilitating the medical staff to push the bed body to the designated position. When the bed body does not need to be moved, the bed body is lowered by the lifting mechanism, at which time the bed body leg is in contact with the ground, realizing the stable locking of the bed body and ensuring the safety and accuracy of the medical operation.

[0020] During lifting of the frame body, the end of the support surface one 202 which first contacts the frame body rotates from one side of the rotation center line 201 to the other side in the rotation direction of the lifting locking block 2, specifically, as Figure 3As shown, when the frame body is not lifted, the right end of the support surface one 202 (i.e. the end first contacting the frame body) is located at the left side of the rotation center line 201, as shown in Figure 4 As shown, when the frame body is completely lifted, the right end of the support surface one 202 (i.e. the end first contacting the frame body) is located at the right side of the rotation center line 201, so that the right end of the support surface one 202 passes the rotation center line 201 of the lifting locking block 2 when the frame body is completely lifted, so that the lifting locking block 2 can maintain the current state after the frame body is lifted, i.e. because the right end of the support surface one 202 passes the rotation center line 201 of the lifting locking block 2 in the process of rotation, so that the frame body can apply a force to the lifting locking block 2 after the frame body is lifted, so that the lifting locking block 2 can maintain the current state, thereby maintaining the lifting state of the frame body, so as to realize the lifting self-locking of the frame body, and at this time the frame body is always separated from the ground, so that the frame body can be quickly moved through the caster 1, and when the frame body is not needed to be moved, the frame body can be lowered to contact the ground by reversely rotating the lifting locking block 2, at this time the frame body cannot be moved through the caster 1.

[0021] As an implementable manner, as shown in Figure 4 As shown, after the frame body is lifted, in the cross section perpendicular to the rotation center line 201, the distance from the end of the support surface one 202 first contacting the frame body to the straight line intersecting the rotation center line 201 and perpendicular to the support surface one 202 is 3-7 mm (the straight line is a dotted line as shown in Figure 4 , i.e. the stability of the lifting self-locking of the frame body can be ensured, and the smoothness of the frame body changing from the lifting state to the lowering state can be ensured.

[0024] In the embodiment, the frame is supported by both the ground and the second supporting surface 204 when the frame is not lifted, so that the rotation of the lifting locking block 2 can be switched from the contact between the frame and the second supporting surface 204 to the contact between the frame and the transition surface 203, so as to perform the lifting process of the frame, and the transition surface 203 is smooth in the whole, so as to improve the smoothness of the frame during the lifting process, and gradually switched from the contact between the frame and the transition surface 203 to the contact between the frame and the first supporting surface 202, so as to complete the lifting of the frame.

[0027] As an implementable manner, as shown in the figure, Figures 6-8As shown, the connecting rod mechanism 6 includes two connecting rods 601 and a transmission rod 602, the left and right ends of the base 4 are provided with connecting rods 601, the two ends of the connecting rod 601 at the left end of the base 4 are respectively rotatably connected with the connecting shafts 3 at the left and right sides of the left end of the base 4, and the lifting locking block 2 at the left end of the base 4 is fixedly arranged on the connecting rod 601 at the left end of the base 4, the two ends of the connecting rod 601 at the right end of the base 4 are respectively rotatably connected with the connecting shafts 3 at the left and right sides of the right end of the base 4, and the lifting locking block 2 at the right end of the base 4 is fixedly arranged on the connecting rod 601 at the right end of the base 4, and the lifting locking blocks 2 at the left and right ends of the base 4 are arranged between the connecting shafts 3, the lifting locking block 2, the two ends of the transmission rod 602 are rotatably connected with the connecting rod 601 at the left end of the base 4 and the connecting rod 601 at the right end of the base 4, so that the connecting rod 601 at the left end of the base 4 can be driven to rotate by rotating the lifting locking block 2 at the left end of the base 4, the connecting rod 601 at the right end of the base 4 can be driven to rotate by the transmission rod 602, and the lifting locking block 2 at the right end of the base 4 is further driven to rotate, thereby achieving the simultaneous jacking or landing of the base 4.

[0029] As an implementable manner, the lifting locking block 2 is fixedly provided with a pedal 7, the pedal 7 can drive the lifting locking block 2 to rotate, specifically, the two lifting locking blocks 2 at the left end of the base 4 are both connected with the pedal 7, the pedal 7 does not contact with the base 4 and extends to the outside of the base 4, so that the lifting locking block 2 can be driven to rotate by applying a rotating force to the pedal 7, thereby achieving the lifting of the base 4.

[0030] In this embodiment, when in use: When the base 4 needs to be moved, the worker steps on the pedal 7 and applies a force to the pedal 7 which can drive the pedal 7 to rotate, thereby driving the lifting locking block 2 to rotate, so that the contact surface between the lifting locking block 2 and the base 4 gradually changes from the second supporting surface 204 to the transition surface 203 and finally to the first supporting surface 202, thereby achieving the jacking of the base 4; since the right end of the first supporting surface 202 exceeds the rotation center line 201 of the lifting locking block 2 when the base 4 is completely lifted, the base 4 will apply a force to the lifting locking block 2 to maintain the current state, thereby achieving the lifting self-locking of the base 4 and ensuring that the base 4 can maintain the state of being separated from the ground, and then the base 4 can be moved under the action of the casters 1; When the base 4 does not need to move, the staff can drive the pedal 7 to rotate reversely by applying a force in the opposite direction to the pedal 7, thereby driving the lifting locking block 2 to rotate reversely, so that the contact surface of the lifting locking block 2 gradually changes from the supporting surface one 202 to the transition surface 203 and finally to the supporting surface two 204, thereby realizing the lowering of the base 4. Since the distance between the end of the supporting surface one 202 which is first contacted with the frame body after the base 4 is lifted and the plane perpendicular to the supporting surface one 202 and where the rotation center line 201 is located is limited, the smoothness of the base 4 from the lifting state to the lowering state can be ensured.
