Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nursing technology, and in particular to a lower limb dressing stand. Background Technology

[0002] Lower limb dressing changes are a routine clinical procedure for treating lower limb surgical diseases. Lower limb wounds and postoperative incisions require medical staff to examine, change dressings, and bandage them to promote healing and prevent complications. Dressing changes involve removing the old dressing, disinfection, applying medication, replacing the dressing, and bandaging. Often, the affected limb needs to be suspended in the air for easy dressing changes. Current solutions include having the patient lift the affected limb themselves, or having medical staff assist in lifting it, or propping the limb up on temporary objects, which is quite inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a lower limb dressing holder to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option or create conditions.

[0004] The technical solution adopted to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a lower limb dressing stand, comprising: a base plate; a support rod, vertically installed on the base plate, the support rod being rotatably mounted with a guide cylinder; a crossbar, rotatably installed on the top of the support rod, the crossbar being rotatably mounted with a support column slidably disposed on the guide cylinder, the guide cylinder being mounted with a fixing member for fixing the support column; and a support pillow, installed on the crossbar.

[0005] This technical solution offers at least the following benefits: When a patient's lower limb requires dressing changes, the crossbar can be raised. At this time, the support column slides within the guide cylinder, which rotates relative to the support rod. When the crossbar is horizontal, the support column is fixed in place by fasteners, ensuring the crossbar's support capacity. The lower limb requiring dressing changes rests on the support pillow of the crossbar, facilitating dressing changes and improving nursing efficiency. After the dressing change is completed, the fasteners can be released from the support column, allowing the crossbar to rotate relative to the support rod to a parallel position, thus facilitating the storage and placement of the lower limb dressing rack.

[0006] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the fixing component includes a movable pin inserted into the guide cylinder, and the support column has a positioning hole for the movable pin to be inserted. When the movable pin is pulled out of the positioning hole, the support column can slide relative to the guide cylinder to adjust the position of the crossbar. When the movable pin is inserted into the positioning hole, the support column cannot slide relative to the guide cylinder, thereby forming a stable triangular structure with the support column, support rod, and crossbar, ensuring the support capacity of the crossbar.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, an elastic element is installed between the movable pin and the guide cylinder. The elastic element provides a spring force to insert the movable pin into the positioning hole. The elastic element can insert the movable pin into the positioning hole when it is aligned, achieving the effect of quickly fixing the crossbar. Overcoming the spring force of the elastic element to pull the movable pin out of the positioning hole can release the movable pin from the restriction on the support column.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, an elastic protective cloth is fitted at the connection point between the crossbar and the support rod. One end of the elastic protective cloth is connected to the crossbar, and the other end is connected to the support rod. This prevents surrounding clothing or patient limbs from being caught when the crossbar and support rod rotate relative to each other. It also serves as a dustproof measure, improving the reliability and durability of the relative rotation between the crossbar and support rod.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the support rod includes an adjusting cylinder and an adjusting rod slidably disposed on the adjusting cylinder. The adjusting cylinder is mounted on the base plate, and the adjusting rod is rotatably connected to the crossbar. The adjusting cylinder is fitted with fasteners for fixing the adjusting rod. By sliding the adjusting rod relative to the adjusting cylinder and then fixing the adjusting rod with fasteners, the height position of the crossbar can be adjusted to adapt to different limb support heights, thus improving adaptability.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the fastener is a threaded rod that is threaded through the adjusting cylinder and presses against the surface of the adjusting rod. By tightening the threaded rod, the position of the adjusting rod can be limited by pressing the threaded rod against the surface of the adjusting rod. By loosening the threaded rod, the adjusting rod can be allowed to slide relative to the adjusting cylinder, thereby achieving the effect of height adjustment.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the support pillow is an arc-shaped elastic metal sheet with bolts threaded through it, allowing it to be detachably mounted on the crossbar. The metal sheet can provide adaptive support for affected limbs of different weights and diameters, improving patient comfort during dressing changes. Simultaneously, it facilitates the assembly and replacement of the support pillow.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the guide cylinder is equipped with a rotating shaft that passes through the support rod, and a nut is threaded onto the rotating shaft. The guide cylinder and the nut clamp the support rod, thereby facilitating the rotatable connection between the guide cylinder and the support rod.

[0013] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the top of the support pillow is provided with a protective soft pad, which can improve the patient's support comfort.

[0014] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the bottom of the base plate is equipped with multiple rollers, which facilitates the movement of the lower limb dressing rack. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Reference Figure 1 The lower limb dressing stand includes a base plate 100, a support rod 200, a crossbar 300, and a support pillow 400.

[0025] The base plate 100 has a square flat structure, and a roller 110 is installed on each of the four sides of the bottom of the base plate 100 to facilitate the movement of the lower limb dressing holder. The roller 110 is equipped with a brake pad. Pressing the brake pad against the outer periphery of the roller 110 can prevent the roller 110 from slipping, thereby preventing the dressing change process from being affected by the slipping of the roller 110 during use.

[0026] The support rod 200 includes an adjusting rod 220 and an adjusting cylinder 210. The adjusting cylinder 210 is a hollow circular tube. The outer diameter of the adjusting cylinder 210 is larger than the diameter of the adjusting rod 220, and the inner diameter of the adjusting cylinder 210 is the same as or slightly larger than the diameter of the adjusting rod 220, allowing the adjusting rod 220 to extend into the adjusting cylinder 210 from the top. The adjusting cylinder 210 is fitted with a fastener that secures the adjusting rod 220 relative to the adjusting cylinder 210. Specifically, the fastener is a threaded rod 230. One end of the threaded rod 230 passes through the adjusting cylinder 210 and abuts against the outer wall of the adjusting rod 220. The threaded rod 230 is threadedly connected to the adjusting cylinder 210, meaning that the top of the adjusting cylinder 210 has a threaded hole for the threaded rod 230 to be screwed into. The other end of the threaded rod 230 has a head with a diameter larger than the rod body to facilitate gripping and rotating the threaded rod 230.

[0027] A crossbar 300 is mounted on top of the adjusting rod 220, and a support pillow 400 is mounted on the crossbar 300. When the adjusting rod 220 slides relative to the adjusting cylinder 210, the height of the crossbar 300 can be adjusted to accommodate different support requirements. Multiple support strips are arranged in a ring between the adjusting cylinder 210 and the base plate 100, forming a triangular support structure between the support strips, the adjusting cylinder 210, and the base plate 100, thus ensuring the relative stability between the adjusting cylinder 210 and the base plate 100. In other embodiments, the fastener can also be a pin. Multiple insertion holes are arranged longitudinally on the adjusting rod 220. The pin is passed through the adjusting cylinder 210 and then inserted into the insertion hole at the desired height, thereby fixing the height of the adjusting rod 220.

[0028] One end of the crossbar 300 is rotatably connected to the top of the adjusting rod 220 via a hinge or pivot structure, allowing the crossbar 300 to swing between two positions: a lateral position perpendicular to the adjusting rod 220 and a longitudinal position parallel to the adjusting rod 220 after downward rotation. A mounting base is fixedly installed at the bottom of the crossbar 300, and a support column 310 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base via a pivot. A guide cylinder 240, a hollow tube structure, is rotatably mounted on the side wall of the adjusting rod 220, with its rotation axis perpendicular to the axis of the adjusting rod 220. The end of the support column 310 furthest from the support base passes through the guide cylinder 240, allowing the support column 310 to slide relative to the guide cylinder 240. A fixing component is installed on the guide cylinder 240 to secure the support column 310, preventing it from sliding relative to the guide cylinder 240 and thus fixing the position of the crossbar 300.

[0029] The fastener is a snap nail 500. A positioning hole 510 is provided on the support column 310. The snap nail 500 passes through the guide cylinder 240 and is embedded in the positioning hole 510. At this time, a stable triangular structure is formed between the support column 310, the adjusting rod 220, and the crossbar 300, with the crossbar 300 in a horizontal state, thus providing a stable support structure for the support pillow 400. When not in use, the snap nail 500 can be pulled out of the positioning hole 510, and the crossbar 300 can be swung downwards for storage. At this time, the support column 310 rotates relative to the mounting base and slides within the guide cylinder 240. Simultaneously, the guide cylinder 240 also rotates relative to the adjusting rod 220, ultimately ensuring that the crossbar 300 and the support column 310 are both in a longitudinally distributed state, saving space and facilitating storage.

[0030] The end of the snap nail 500 furthest from the insertion positioning hole 510 has a head larger than the diameter of the nail body. An elastic element 600, a helical spring, is installed between the head and the guide cylinder 240. The helical spring is sleeved around the nail body of the snap nail 500, with one end connected to the guide cylinder 240 and the other end connected to the head. The spring force keeps the snap nail 500 pressed against the side wall of the support column 310. When the support column 310 slides relative to the guide cylinder 240 until the positioning hole 510 aligns with the snap nail 500, the snap nail 500 is inserted into the positioning hole 510 under the action of the helical spring force, thus keeping the crossbar 300 horizontal. This facilitates quick deployment of the crossbar 300 for dressing changes, improving nursing efficiency.

[0031] After use, the movable pin 500 can be pulled to overcome the elasticity of the coil spring and disengage the movable pin 500 from the positioning hole 510. The crossbar 300 can then be swung downwards to store the crossbar 300 and the support column 310.

[0032] The guide cylinder 240 has a rotating shaft fixed on the side away from where the snap pin 500 is inserted. The rotating shaft passes through the adjusting rod 220 and can rotate relative to the adjusting rod 220 to any angle. After passing through the adjusting rod 220, the rotating shaft is threaded with two nuts, which allows the rotating shaft to be rotatably mounted on the adjusting rod 220, thus realizing the rotatable connection between the guide cylinder 240 and the adjusting rod 220.

[0033] In other embodiments, the fastener may be a screw that is threaded into the guide cylinder 240 and presses against the surface of the support column 310, thereby fixing the support column 310 in the desired position.

[0034] To prevent injury to personnel or clothing from being caught when the crossbar 300 and adjusting rod 220 rotate relative to each other, an elastic protective cloth 700 is fitted at the position where the crossbar 300 and adjusting rod 220 rotate relative to each other. One end of the elastic protective cloth 700 is fitted and fixed to the crossbar 300, and the other end is fitted and fixed to the adjusting rod 220. The elastic protective cloth 700 also serves as a dustproof layer, thereby protecting the internal rotating structure.

[0035] The support pillow 400 is a flexible metal sheet with a concave arc shape in the center to support the patient's limb, providing good wrapping while adapting to limbs of different sizes, thus improving fit. A bolt 410 is inserted through the bottom of the metal sheet, and a countersunk hole is provided for the bolt 410 to pass through, preventing the bolt 410 from pressing against the patient's limb surface and causing discomfort. The bolt 410 passes through the crossbar 300, allowing the support pillow 400 to be detachably installed on the crossbar 300. A recessed groove is provided at the bottom of the crossbar 300 for the bolt 410 to be installed, ensuring that the bolt 410 does not protrude from the bottom of the crossbar 300 and thus preventing the bolt 410 from interfering with the folding and storage of the crossbar 300.

[0036] A protective sleeve is fitted over the metal sheet, and a protective pad 420 is attached to the top of the protective sleeve via Velcro. The protective pad 420 includes an outer cover and an inner core, with the outer cover fitted over the inner core. The inner core can be made of materials such as silicone, sponge, or cotton. The outer cover is attached to the top of the protective sleeve via Velcro, thus providing soft support for the patient's limb and improving patient comfort.

[0037] The base plate 100, support rod 200, crossbar 300, support pillow 400, support column 310, and guide cylinder 240 are all made of stainless steel.

[0038] It should be noted that the height of the base plate 100 is slightly lower than that of a typical hospital bed, allowing the base plate 100 to extend under the bed and place the support pillow 400 on the bed, making it easier for the patient to change dressings while in bed.

[0039] The lower limb dressing stand in this embodiment is suitable for medical staff to change and bandage patients' lower limbs. It is not only easy and flexible to move, allowing it to be easily moved to the bedside in the ward for dressing changes, but also has an adjustable support height, providing high patient comfort. Furthermore, it allows for single-person operation of lower limb dressing changes, solving the problem of multiple people needing to work together when changing and bandaging patients in surgery, improving the efficiency of dressing changes for medical staff, and increasing patient satisfaction.

[0040] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
