For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection, a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0030] Embodiment, an auxiliary turning-over device for the elderly, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, includes a turning-over pad main body 1. The turning-over pad main body 1 includes a turning part 11, a partition block 12, and a support block 13. The turning part 11 is in a semi-circular shape with a circular arc at the lower end. The partition block 12 is arranged in the middle of the upper end of the turning part 11. There are two support blocks 13 which are arranged on the left and right sides of the upper end of the turning part 11. The turning-over pad main body 1 is a prior art, and its specific form will not be described in detail. The first support plate 2 and the second support plate 3 are detachably connected to the rear side of the turning-over pad main body 1. The first support plate 2 corresponds to the support block 13, and the second support plate 3 corresponds to the partition block 12. The first support plate 2 supports the lower leg and foot when lying on the side, and the second support plate 3 supports the upper leg and foot when lying on the side, so that the feet of the elderly do not fall empty and ensure the comfort of lying on the side for a long time. When lying on the side for a short time, the first support plate 2 and the second support plate 3 are not needed and do not need to be installed. Anti-detachment blocks 6 are arranged on one side of the upper end of the support block 13 close to the partition block 12, so as to prevent the legs of the elderly from falling off the turning-over pad main body 1 when lying on the side.

[0031] The detachable installation method of the first support plate 2 is that a clamping block 14 is provided at the rear end of the support block 13, clamping grooves 21 are provided at both the front and rear ends of the first support plate 2, and the clamping block 14 is inserted into the clamping groove 21 to form a fixation. The thickness of the first support plate 2 is equal to that of the support block 13, reducing the gap between the legs and the first support plate 2. The upper end of the first support plate 2 is at the same height as the support block 13, the lower end of the first support plate 2 vertically extends to the lower end of the flipping part 11, and the lower end of the first support plate 2 and the lower end of the flipping part 11 form the same arc surface, which facilitates the flipping of this device. When in use, fix the clamping groove 21 at the front end or the rear end of the first support plate 2 on the clamping block 14. Specifically, whether it is the front end or the rear end needs to be determined according to the flipping direction of the elderly. In this way, whether flipping to the left or to the right, only one first support plate 2 is needed.

[0032] The detachable installation method of the second support plate 3 is that a limiting groove 15 is opened downward in the middle of the upper end of the partition block 12. A limiting plate 31 is provided on the front side of the second support plate 3, a limiting block 32 is provided at the front end of the limiting plate 31, the limiting plate 31 is inserted into the limiting groove 15 from the upper end, the limiting block 32 is provided at the front end of the partition block 12, the thickness of the second support plate 3 is equal to that of the partition block 12, the upper end of the second support plate 3 extends to the upper end of the partition block 12, and the lower end of the second support plate 3 extends to the lower end of the flipping part 11. When in use, just snap the limiting plate 31 into the limiting groove 15. The second support plate 3 supports the lower leg and foot located above, which is simple and convenient.

[0033] The areas of the first support plate 2 and the second support plate 3 are relatively large and cover a wide area. In this way, when the patient lies on the side, the lower legs can be in different forms and can all play a supporting role.

[0034] A number of ventilation holes 4 penetrating left and right are opened on both the first support plate 2 and the second support plate 3. The setting of the ventilation holes 4 improves the air permeability during use. Of course, to a certain extent, it also reduces the mass of the first support plate 2 and the second support plate 3.

[0035] The turning pad main body 1 and the clamping block 14 are integrally formed, the limiting plate 31, the limiting block 32 and the second support plate 3 are integrally formed. The turning pad main body 1, the clamping block 14, the first support plate 2, the limiting plate 31, the limiting block 32 and the second support plate 3 are all made of high-density sponge and anti-fouling outer covers. The high-density sponge is relatively soft, has a high comfort level when used, and also has a certain elasticity, enabling an interference fit when the various components are clamped together to ensure the stability of the fixation.

[0036] Hook-and-loop fastener rough surfaces 16 are provided on both the left and right sides of the flipping part 11. The anti-rolling blocks 5 are detachably mounted on the hook-and-loop fastener rough surfaces 16, and the anti-rolling blocks 5 are connected to the hook-and-loop fastener rough surfaces 16 through hook-and-loop fastener soft surfaces 51. The anti-rolling blocks 5 can prevent the patient from rolling back to the supine position when lying on the side, because the bed is relatively hard or the unconscious force of the elderly themselves can easily cause this situation, affecting the progress of lying on the side.

[0037] Usage method: Install the first support plate 2 and the second support plate 3 on the turning pad main body 1, then lift the legs of the elderly, fix the turning pad main body 1 at the knee joints of the elderly, apply force to the shoulders of the elderly and the turning pad main body 1 after putting down the legs to turn the elderly into a side-lying state, adjust the posture of the lower legs of the elderly, and then fix the anti-rolling blocks 5.

[0038] It should also be noted that this device is not only applicable to the elderly, but also suitable for patients who cannot turn over actively, especially patients with unstable joints and easy to fall off in the lower limbs.

[0039] This specific embodiment is only an explanation of the present invention, and it is not a limitation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make modifications without creative contributions to this embodiment according to needs after reading this specification, but as long as it is within the scope of the claims of the present invention, it is protected by the patent law.
