Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. The present utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific implementation manners. Without conflict, the following embodiments and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0032] Figure 1 —3 shows the main technical content of this embodiment. This specific embodiment provides a warning device for patient position change, which includes:

[0033] A housing 1 having a first chamber 11 and a second chamber 12;

[0034] A control module disposed in the first chamber 11;

[0035] A warning module disposed in the first chamber 11;

[0036] Tilt switch, configured in the second chamber 12, the tilt switch includes: a first electrode sheet 13, electrically connected to the control module;

[0037] A second electrode sheet 14, arranged at an interval from the first electrode sheet 13, wherein the second electrode sheet 14 is electrically connected to the warning module;

[0038] A conductive part 15, movably arranged between the first electrode sheet 13 and the second electrode sheet 14, wherein the conductive part 15 has a lead position between the first electrode sheet 13 and the second electrode sheet 14. When the housing 1 tilts, the conductive part 15 can move to the lead position, and the conductive part 15 electrically connects the first electrode sheet 13 and the second electrode sheet 14.

[0039] Reference Figure 2 —4, in this embodiment, the second chamber 12 includes an upper chamber 121 and a lower chamber 122 that are mirror images of each other. Both the upper chamber 121 and the lower chamber 122 are conical chambers. Among them, the first electrode sheet 13 is located in the upper chamber 121, and the second electrode sheet 14 is located in the lower chamber 122; specifically, the lead position is located at the connection between the inner wall of the upper chamber 121 and the inner wall of the lower chamber 122. When in use, the housing 1 is worn on the patient's torso. When the patient's center of gravity is unstable and about to fall, the housing 1 tilts with the change of the patient's body position. At this time, the conductive part 15 moves towards the lead position in the upper chamber 121 and the lower chamber 122 to connect the first electrode sheet 13 and the second electrode sheet 14. At this time, the warning module is powered on to send a reminder to the surrounding area or the nursing station in the hospital.

[0040] Referring to Fig. -5, in this embodiment, the conductive part 15 is a conductive ball. Among them, in the normal state, the conductive ball is located in the lower chamber 122. When in use, when the housing 1 tilts, the conductive ball rolls between the lower chamber 122 and the upper chamber 121. Specifically, when the conductive ball is at the lead position, the outer wall of the conductive ball is tangent to the outer wall of the first electrode sheet 13 and the outer wall of the second electrode sheet 14 at the same time, so as to conduct the first electrode sheet 13 and the second electrode sheet 14, enabling the warning module to be powered on.

[0041] Preferably, to avoid accidental contact between the first electrode sheet 13 and the second electrode sheet 14, an insulating rubber strip is arranged at the joint of the upper chamber 121 and the lower chamber 122, so that the first electrode sheet 13 and the second electrode sheet 14 are spaced apart. Specifically, the lower edge of the first electrode sheet 13 and the upper edge of the second electrode sheet 14 are both joined to the insulating rubber strip. Among them, the thickness of the insulating rubber strip is the same as the thickness of the first electrode sheet 13, so as to avoid the conductive ball being unable to contact the first electrode sheet 13 and the second electrode sheet 14 when the conductive ball is at the lead position.

[0042] Reference Figure 6, in this embodiment, it further includes: a fixing component, where the fixing component is disposed on one side of the housing 1. Specifically, the housing 1 has a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other, and the second surface of the housing 1 is the side facing the patient's body. During use, the housing 1 is worn on the patient's chest position through the fixing component. In this position, when the patient walks, since the horizontal position of this instrument is relatively high, it is not easy to shake during the patient's walking process, thereby avoiding the shaking of the conductive ball in the second chamber 12 during the patient's walking process.

[0043] Specifically, the fixing component includes: a first fixing portion 161, a second fixing portion 162, and an elastic needle 163 located between the first fixing portion 161 and the second fixing portion 162. One end of the elastic needle 163 is fixedly connected to the first fixing portion 161, and the other end of the elastic needle 163 is inserted into the second fixing portion 162. Specifically, a hole is formed on the surface of the second fixing portion 162 facing the first fixing portion 161, and one end of the elastic needle 163 can be inserted into this hole; during use, pinch the patient's hospital gown and apply force to the elastic needle 163 to make one end of the elastic needle 163 pass through the hospital gown and insert into the hole of the second fixing portion 162, thereby realizing wearing this instrument on the patient's body.

[0044] Reference Figure 2 —4, in this embodiment, the control module includes: a control main board 17, a power module 18, a power switch 19, and a signal transmission module. The control main board 17 is electrically connected to the power module 18, the signal transmission module is electrically connected to the control main board 17, and the power switch 19 is disposed on the outer wall of the housing 1 and is electrically connected to the control main board 17 and the power module 18 by wires. Among them, the control main board 17 is electrically connected to the first electrode plate 13 by wires. During use, the control main board 17 is powered on and turned on through the power switch 19. Among them, the signal transmission module is wirelessly connected to the call system in the hospital. During use, when the patient is about to fall due to unstable center of gravity and when the patient has fallen, at this time, the first electrode plate 13 and the second electrode plate 14 are electrically connected through the conductive ball, so that the warning module is powered on to issue a warning. At this time, the signal transmission module transmits the patient's body position information to the call station (nurse station) through the hospital call system, so that medical staff can help the patient in time and treat the patient in time.

[0045] More specifically, the power module 18 includes: a storage battery and a charging interface. The storage battery and the charging interface are both electrically connected to the control main board 17. Among them, the storage battery is located in the first chamber 11, and the charging interface is formed on the outer wall of the housing. Alternatively, the power module 18 may further include: a battery slot and a slot cover. The battery slot is disposed around the housing 1 and is electrically connected to the control main board 17 and the power switch 19; the battery slot is used to load button batteries, and the slot cover is detachably connected to the battery slot.

[0046] In this embodiment, the warning module includes: a speaker 20. The speaker 20 is electrically connected to the second electrode plate 14 and the control main board 17. When the conductive part 15 is in the lead position, the speaker 20 is powered on. During use, when the patient falls, the speaker 20 emits a warning so that the medical staff nearby can learn about the patient's situation and provide assistance to the patient in a timely manner.

[0047] In addition, in this embodiment, it further includes: a counterweight cavity and a counterweight block arranged in the counterweight cavity. The counterweight cavity includes: a first counterweight cavity and a second counterweight cavity. The first counterweight cavity and the second counterweight cavity are arranged on both sides of the second chamber 12 in a mirror image manner. A counterweight block is arranged in each counterweight cavity. With this setting, the housing 1 can always maintain a relatively stable state during the wearing process, so that the guiding ball will not accidentally touch the first electrode plate 13.

[0048] The usage method of the present utility model:

[0049] 1. Wear the housing on the patient's hospital gown through the fixing component, and the housing is located at the patient's chest position;

[0050] 2. Power on the control main board through the power switch to make the device in an on state;

[0051] 3. When the patient is about to fall due to unstable center of gravity and after the patient has fallen, at this time, the conductive ball is in the lead position to connect the first electrode plate and the second electrode plate. The signal transmission module transmits the patient's current information to the nurse station. At the same time, the warning module emits a warning to remind the medical staff closer to the patient.
