[0019] Regarding the drawback that the hospital bed guardrail in the prior art is extremely prone to fall-out accidents. After careful analysis by the inventor, it is found that the main reason for the above technical problems is that in the mother-baby co-room, which is a special ward, infants often sleep together with their mothers in the same bed, aiming to promote early contact and emotional connection between the mother and the infant, and at the same time facilitating the mother to observe and take care of the infant at any time during the postpartum recovery period to ensure that the infant receives timely breastfeeding and comfort. However, the existing hospital bed guardrail design has certain safety hazards, mainly concentrated on the gap size between adjacent guardrail vertical bars. If these gaps are designed too large, it is impossible to effectively prevent the small body or head of the infant from passing through. Especially when the infant is in an active state or turns over during sleep, it is extremely prone to fall-out accidents. Infant fall-out not only may cause physical injuries such as abrasions and fractures, but also may trigger psychological fright and uneasiness, posing a potential threat to the healthy growth of the infant. Based on the above analysis, the inventor designs a hospital bed guardrail with a deployable and foldable curtain. When the curtain is deployed, it covers the gaps between adjacent guardrail vertical bars on the guardrail body, making it difficult for the infant to fall; it can also be stored in a storage box to protect the curtain.

[0020] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, in one embodiment of the present utility model, the hospital bed guardrail includes a guardrail body 1, a curtain 2, a lock 3, and a storage box 4 for storing the curtain 2. The curtain 2 covers the front side of the guardrail body 1 and one end is connected to the guardrail body 1 through the storage box 4, and the other end is detachably connected to the guardrail body 1 through the lock 3.

[0021] The storage box 4 includes a box body 41, a spring 42, and a rotating shaft 43. The spring 42 is a coiled spring. The rotating shaft 43 is rotatably arranged inside the box body 41. The box body 41 is provided with a retractable opening. Both the spring 42 and the protective curtain 2 are wound around the rotating shaft 43 and are located at both ends of the rotating shaft 43 respectively. One end of the spring 42 is connected to the box body 41, and the other end is connected to the rotating shaft 43. One end of the protective curtain 2 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 43, and the other end extends out of the box body 41 through the retractable opening and is connected to the lock 3. A partition 44 is provided inside the box body 41. The partition 44 divides the interior of the box body 41 into a left inner cavity and a right inner cavity. One end of the rotating shaft 43 is connected to the inner wall of the left inner cavity, and the other end passes through the partition 44 and is connected to the inner wall of the right inner cavity. The spring 42 is located in the right inner cavity, and the protective curtain 2 is located in the left inner cavity. When the protective curtain 2 is not in use, simply open the lock 3, and the protective curtain 2 can be automatically retracted into the box body 41 under the action of the spring 42.

[0022] Among them, the box body 41 is provided with a limiting device 5, which includes a screw rod 51, pressing plates 52 respectively arranged at both ends of the screw rod 51, and a knob 53. The screw rod 51 is inserted into the box body 41 and is threadedly connected to it. The pressing plate 52 is located inside the box body 41. The knob 53 is used to rotate the screw rod 51 to press the pressing plate 52 against the protective curtain 2. By setting the limiting device 5, it is not easy for infants and young children to fall. The pressing plate 52 is provided with a rotating hole, and the screw rod 51 is rotatably inserted into the rotating hole. When rotating the screw rod 51, to avoid the pressing plate 52 rotating along with the screw rod 51, the pressing plate 52 and the inner wall of the box body 41 cooperate to clamp the protective curtain 2 to prevent the protective curtain 2 from being pulled.

[0023] The lock 3 includes a movable lock piece 31 and a fixed lock piece 32. The movable lock piece 31 is fixedly connected to the protective curtain 2 and blocks outside the storage box 4. The fixed lock piece 32 is fixedly connected to the guardrail body 1. The movable lock piece 31 is U-shaped. The fixed lock piece 32 is 7-shaped and includes a connecting piece 33 and an inserting piece 34 formed by bending and extending from one side of the connecting piece 33. The inserting piece 34 can be inserted into the slot of the movable lock piece 31, and the connecting piece 33 is connected to the guardrail body 1. The length of the movable lock piece 31 is the same as the width of the protective curtain 2. The movable lock piece 31 is outside the box body 41, which not only facilitates the operator to pull the protective curtain 2 but also prevents the protective curtain 2 from being completely wound inside the box body 41 and being difficult to pull out. The lock 3 is strip-shaped, and at the same time, the length of the movable lock piece 31 is the same as the width of the protective curtain 2, so that the protective curtain 2 is not easy to wrinkle during use.

[0024] The guardrail body 1 includes an upper crossbar, a lower crossbar and a plurality of guardrail vertical bars. The upper crossbar and the lower crossbar are arranged in parallel. The plurality of guardrail vertical bars are evenly distributed between the upper crossbar and the lower crossbar. The lower ends of the plurality of guardrail vertical bars are respectively hinged to the lower crossbar. The upper ends of the guardrail vertical bars except the first guardrail vertical bar at the front end are respectively hinged to the upper crossbar. The upper end of the first guardrail vertical bar at the front end is hinged to the upper crossbar through a locking device. The locking device includes a stop block and a bolt. The stop block is fixedly installed on the upper crossbar. The stop block is provided with a mounting groove. The first guardrail vertical bar at the front end is inserted into the mounting groove. The stop block is provided with a pivot shaft passing through both sides of the stop block and the guardrail vertical bar. The bolt is inserted into the mounting groove and is threadedly connected to the first guardrail vertical bar at the front end. When the bolt is disengaged from the threaded hole and the curtain 2 is stored in the box body 41 at the same time, the guardrail vertical bar can be tilted to one side, and the curtain 2 is not likely to affect the folding of the guardrail body 1, so that the guardrail body 1 can be stored on both sides of the hospital bed, which is beneficial for medical staff to carry out treatment.

[0025] All of the above embodiments are exemplary rather than restrictive. Those skilled in the art, under the concept of the present invention, make various modifications or deformations to the specific embodiments described above, and all should be within the protection scope of the present invention.
