Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to a base for medical equipment. Background Technology
[0002] When transporting or packing large medical equipment using forklifts, the medical equipment needs to be placed in a packaging box first, and then a cushioning base is placed at the bottom of the packaging box to meet the shock protection requirements during transportation. This type of base usually uses multiple cushioning balls set at the foot of the base to achieve the cushioning function.
[0003] The aforementioned base requires drilling holes at the foot block location during manufacturing, and then using T-nuts to install the buffer ball onto the foot block. Since the buffer ball and the drilling holes at the foot block are both relatively expensive, the material and manufacturing costs of this type of base are both high. Therefore, a base with buffering function and lower cost needs to be designed. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the high production cost of existing medical equipment packaging trays, thereby providing a tray for medical equipment.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A base for a medical device, comprising:
[0007] panel;
[0008] A support and buffer mechanism includes at least one pair of oppositely arranged support and buffer components, wherein the at least one pair of support and buffer components forms a placement space for placing medical devices above the panel;
[0009] The support and cushioning assembly includes a support block connected above the panel and a cushioning material layer connected to the support block and providing cushioning in a direction perpendicular to the panel.
[0010] Furthermore, the support block includes a bottom support block and a top support block, the bottom support block being connected to the panel, and the top support block being adapted to provide support for the medical device; the cushioning material layer is disposed between the bottom support block and the top support block.
[0011] Furthermore, the total thickness of the buffer material layer and the bottom support block is 1 / 6 to 1 / 2 of the overall thickness of the support buffer assembly.
[0012] Furthermore, the support and buffer assembly also includes a side buffer block connected to the side of the top support block facing the placement space, and the side buffer block provides a buffering effect along the line connecting the top support block and the placement space.
[0013] Furthermore, the upper end of the support block is provided with a stepped structure on the side near the placement space, the stepped structure including a stepped side facing the placement space, and the side buffer block is disposed on the stepped side.
[0014] Furthermore, the support and cushioning assembly also includes a scratch-resistant protective layer disposed on the side of the support block facing the placement space.
[0015] Furthermore, the support and buffer assembly is rotatably connected to the panel about an axis.
[0016] Furthermore, the pair of support buffer components have a first position and a second position during rotation; when the support buffer component is in the first position, the distance between the pair of support buffer components is less than the passage width of the medical device they support; when the support buffer component is in the second position, the distance between the pair of support buffer components is greater than or equal to the passage width of the medical device they support.
[0017] Furthermore, the support and cushioning assembly is rotatably connected to the panel via a hinge, the hinge being located on the side of the support and cushioning assembly facing away from the placement space.
[0018] Furthermore, a limiting block for limiting the position of medical devices on the panel is provided above the panel, and a buffer layer is provided on the side of the limiting block facing the placement space.
[0019] Furthermore, a corner positioning element is provided above the panel for positioning the outer packaging of the medical device on the panel.
[0020] Furthermore, the panel is also equipped with multiple hanging rings.
[0021] The present invention provides a base for medical equipment. By setting a pair of opposing support and buffer components on the panel of the base, the support blocks of the support and buffer components can provide support for large medical equipment on the base, and the buffer material layer of the support and buffer components can provide a buffering effect for the medical equipment in a direction perpendicular to the panel. The support and buffer components of this base do not require the use of buffer balls for cushioning, which has the advantages of low material cost and low processing cost. In addition, the support and buffer components can restrict the movement of large medical equipment on the panel, which can improve the safety of large medical equipment during transportation.

[0034] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0035] During forklift handling or packaging transportation of large medical equipment, it is usually necessary to first place the large medical equipment in a packaging box, and then place a support base at the bottom of the packaging box to support the medical equipment and meet its shockproof requirements. Existing medical equipment supports typically have multiple cushioning balls at the foot positions for shock absorption. However, using cushioning balls as the base structure has the problem of high cost.
[0036] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a base for a medical device, comprising a panel 1, a footrest 2, a horizontal plate 3, and a support and cushioning mechanism; the support and cushioning mechanism includes at least one pair of opposing support and cushioning components 4, which together form a placement space 4a for placing the medical device above the panel 1. Each support and cushioning component 4 includes a support block connected above the panel 1 and a cushioning material layer 43 connected to the support block and providing cushioning in a direction perpendicular to the panel 1.
[0037] This type of base for medical equipment features a pair of opposing support and cushioning components 4 on the panel 1. The support blocks of the support and cushioning components 4 provide support for large medical equipment on the base, while the cushioning material layer 43 of the support and cushioning components 4 provides cushioning in a direction perpendicular to the panel 1. This base eliminates the need for cushioning balls, offering advantages in both material and manufacturing costs. Furthermore, the support and cushioning components 4 restrict movement of large medical equipment on the panel 1, improving safety during transportation.
[0038] The following Examples 1 and 2 illustrate the specific structure of the base for medical devices.
[0039] Example 1
[0040] like Figure 1 Figure 4 shows a base for medical equipment, comprising a panel 1, foot blocks 2, a cross plate 3, and a support and buffer mechanism. The panel 1, foot blocks 2, and cross plate 3 are all made of wood. There are three parallel foot blocks 2. The panel 1 is a square flat plate fixed above the three foot blocks 2. The cross plate 3 connects adjacent two foot blocks, so that insertion holes are formed on both the lateral and longitudinal sides of the base for easy operation by forklifts or other transport equipment. The support and buffer mechanism is connected above the panel 1 and includes at least one pair of opposing support and buffer components 4, forming a placement space 4a for placing the medical equipment above the panel 1. Typically, large medical equipment includes a chassis connected to multiple casters at the bottom of the chassis. When the medical equipment is placed above the panel 1 of the base, the multiple casters support the panel 1 directly above it, the chassis is suspended above the panel 1, and at least one pair of support and buffer components 4 supports the bottom and sides of the chassis 1.
[0041] The support and cushioning assembly 4 includes a bottom support block 41, a top support block 42, and a cushioning material layer 43. The bottom support block 41 is connected above the panel 1, and the cushioning material layer 43 is placed between the bottom support block 41 and the top support block 42. Both the bottom support block 41 and the top support block 42 are made of wood, and the cushioning material layer 43 is made of vinyl acetate copolymer resin (EVA) or high-density polyethylene foam (EPE). The cushioning material layer 43 provides vertical cushioning and shock absorption for the medical device in a direction perpendicular to the panel 1. The top support block 42 has a stepped structure on the side near the placement space 4a. The stepped structure includes a step side 421 and a step bottom. The step bottom is parallel to the panel 1 and supported on the bottom surface of the chassis. The step side 421 is perpendicular to the panel 1 and faces the placement space 4a, and is supported on the horizontal side of the chassis. The stepped structure on the top support block 42 provides vertical support and horizontal restraint for the medical device.
[0042] In some embodiments, the support and cushioning assembly 4 further includes a side buffer block 44, which is connected to the stepped side 421 of the top support block 42 facing the placement space 4a. The side buffer block 44 provides cushioning along the line connecting the top support block 42 and the placement space 4a. The side buffer block 44 is made of vinyl acetate copolymer resin (EVA) or high-density polyethylene foam (EPE). The side buffer block 44 can prevent the medical device from directly colliding with the harder top support block 42 when it swings horizontally, thus providing cushioning and shock absorption in the horizontal direction for the medical device.
[0043] In some embodiments, the support and cushioning assembly 4 further includes a scratch-resistant protective layer 45, which covers the sides of the bottom support block 41, top support block 42, cushioning material layer 43, and side cushioning block 44 facing the placement space 4a; and the scratch-resistant protective layer 45 also covers the top surface of the top support block 42 facing the medical device; the scratch-resistant protective layer 45 prevents the support and cushioning assembly 4 from scratching the medical device. The material of the scratch-resistant protective layer 45 is vinyl acetate copolymer resin (EVA) sheet or corrugated cardboard.
[0044] In some embodiments, the total thickness of the cushioning material layer 43 and the bottom support block 41 is 1 / 6 to 1 / 2 of the overall thickness of the support and cushioning assembly 4. Preferably, the total thickness of the cushioning material layer 43 and the bottom support block 41 is 1 / 3 of the overall thickness of the support and cushioning assembly 4; the thickness of the cushioning material layer 43 and the thickness of the bottom support block 41 are equal. This arrangement ensures that the entire support and cushioning assembly 4 has a good cushioning and shock absorption effect when supporting medical equipment, and uses less material.
[0045] like Figure 2 As shown, four corner positioning pieces 8 are also provided at the four corners of the upper part of panel 1. After the medical device is placed on panel 1, a packaging box needs to be placed on the medical device on panel 1. The four corner positioning pieces 8 are installed on the four corner positioning pieces 8. Specifically, the four corner positioning pieces 8 include two L-shaped positioning blocks 81 and two straight positioning blocks 82. The two L-shaped positioning blocks 81 are located on one side of panel 1, and the two straight positioning blocks 82 are located on the other side of panel 1. When the medical device is pushed on the base, the medical device is pushed from the side of panel 1 with the two straight positioning blocks 82 to the side of panel 1 with the L-shaped positioning blocks 81. The distance between the two casters on the same side of the medical device is the passage distance of the medical device. The distance between the two straight positioning blocks 82 is greater than or equal to the distance between the two casters on the same side of the medical device. When the medical device is placed in place, the four casters of the medical device correspond exactly to the four corner positioning pieces 8.
[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a limiting block 6 is provided above panel 1 to limit the movement of medical devices on panel 1. A buffer layer 7 is provided on the side of limiting block 6 facing the placement space 4a; that is, the buffer layer 7 is located on the side of limiting block 6 facing the two L-shaped positioning blocks 82. When the medical device is placed in position, the limiting block 6 blocks the side of the medical device closest to the two L-shaped positioning blocks 81, and the buffer layer 7 can provide horizontal and vertical cushioning for the medical device. Through the cooperation of the buffer material layer 43, the side buffer block 44, and the buffer layer 7, shock absorption and cushioning can be provided for the medical device from three different mutually perpendicular directions, improving the safety of the medical device during transportation.
[0047] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, panel 1 is also equipped with four lifting rings 9, two of which are located on opposite sides of one of the support and buffer components 4, and the other two are located on opposite sides of the other support and buffer component 4. The lifting equipment can hook onto the four lifting rings 9 to lift the base and the medical equipment as a whole.
[0048] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the support and buffer assembly 4 is rotatably connected to the panel 1 about an axis. The pair of support and buffer assemblies 4 have a first position and a second position during rotation. When the support and buffer assembly 4 is in the first position, the distance between the pair of support and buffer assemblies 4 is less than the passage width of the medical equipment they support. When the support and buffer assembly 4 is in the second position, the distance between the pair of support and buffer assemblies 4 is greater than or equal to the passage width of the medical equipment they support. When the pair of support and buffer assemblies 4 rotates to the second position, the large medical equipment can be pushed horizontally above the panel 1. After the large medical equipment is placed in position, the pair of support and buffer assemblies 4 rotates from the second position to the first position. At this time, the pair of support and buffer assemblies 4 can support the large medical equipment and provide cushioning and shock absorption, while also limiting the movement of the large medical equipment and reducing horizontal swaying during transportation.
[0049] In some embodiments, the support and buffer assembly 4 is rotatably connected to the panel 1 via a hinge 5, with one side of the hinge 5 connected to the top of the panel 1 and the other side of the hinge 5 connected to the side of the bottom support block 41 facing away from the placement space 4a.
[0050] Example 2
[0051] like Figure 5The support for a medical device shown in Figure 7 differs from Embodiment 1 in that the support and cushioning mechanism includes two pairs of opposing support and cushioning components 4. All four support and cushioning components 4 work together to provide support and cushioning for the medical device, with a limiting block 6 located between one pair of support and cushioning components 4. The structures of the two support and cushioning components 4 within the same pair are identical, while the structures of the two support and cushioning components 4 in different pairs can be identical or different.
[0052] One of the top support blocks 42 of the pair of support and buffer components 4 has a recessed limiting groove 422 on the stepped bottom surface, which can provide support and limit for the medical device. The scratch-resistant protective layer 45 covers the inward-facing sides of the bottom support block 41, the top support block 42, and the buffer material layer 43. The highest top surface of the top support block 42 is not covered by the scratch-resistant protective layer 45, but the two relatively large sides of the support and buffer components 4 are covered by the scratch-resistant protective layer 45. There are no corner positioning parts on the panel 1. Lifting lugs 10 are fixed on the four sides of the panel 1. The edges of the four sides of the panel 1 have mounting holes. The lifting lugs 10 are fixed to the bottom surface of the panel 1 by screws passing through the mounting holes. The lifting lugs 10 also extend outward from the side of the panel. The hook of the lifting equipment hooks onto the holes on the multiple lifting lugs 10, which can lift the base and the medical device on it.
[0053] In summary, the base for medical equipment provided by this utility model provides at least one pair of opposing support and buffer components 4 on the panel 1 of the base. The top support block 42 of the support and buffer component 4 can provide support for large medical equipment on the base. The buffer material layer 43, side buffer blocks 44 and buffer layer 7 of the support and buffer component 4 can provide shock absorption and cushioning for the medical equipment from three different directions. This base does not require the use of buffer balls for cushioning, and has the advantages of low material cost and processing cost. In addition, the support and buffer component 4 can restrict the movement of large medical equipment on the panel 1, which can improve the safety of large medical equipment during transportation.
[0054] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
