[0002] Currently, patients require frequent dressing changes after surgery. Regularly examining and changing the dressings at the wound site plays a crucial role in promoting wound healing and preventing complications. When changing dressings, medical staff typically elevate the patient's affected limb or place it on a temporary surface to fully expose the wound and facilitate the process.

[0003] Publication No. CN 220002196 U discloses a dressing rack with a locking component, which is disposed in the mounting groove and can lock the lifting component. The outer wall of the support column is symmetrically provided with guide grooves, and the outer wall of the connecting block is fixed with a guide rod inserted into the guide groove, which can adjust the height and angle of the dressing rack according to actual use needs.

[0004] Although the existing dressing change racks can be adjusted in height and angle, the entire dressing change rack is moved to the bedside for use. For some patients who have undergone leg surgery, if they use the dressing change rack, they need to move their bodies so that their legs can be placed on the rack. Moving the body not only requires the help of medical staff, which is inconvenient, but also hinders wound healing. Utility Model Content

[0021] Reference Figure 1-3 :

[0022] In one embodiment of this utility model, a dressing rack is provided, including a main frame unit 100 and a suspension unit 200. The main frame unit 100 includes a rectangular frame 101, with cylindrical rods 102 fixed on both sides of the rectangular frame 101. A cylindrical tube 103 is slidably connected to the outer side of the cylindrical rods 102. A rectangular tube 104 is fixed to one end of the cylindrical tube 103 away from the cylindrical rods 102. A rectangular rod 105 is slidably connected inside the rectangular tube 104. A fixing component is provided at the bottom of the rectangular rod 105. The suspension unit 200 includes a rotating shaft 201, with both ends of the rotating shaft 201 rotatably connected to the rectangular frame 101. A winding roller 202 is fixed to the outer side of the rotating shaft 201. A traction rope 203 is wound around the outer side of the winding roller 202, with one end of the traction rope 203 fixed to the winding roller 202 and the other end of the traction rope 203 fixed to a circular elastic band 204. A driving component for driving the circular elastic band 204 to move is provided inside the rectangular frame 101.

[0023] The cylindrical tube 103 has multiple stroke grooves 107 inside, and the cylindrical rod 102 has multiple limiting blocks 106 fixed at one end. The limiting blocks 106 slide in the corresponding stroke grooves 107. The rectangular tube 104 is threaded with a second hand-tightening bolt 112. The rectangular rod 105 has multiple positioning holes 111 inside, and the end of the second hand-tightening bolt 112 extending into the rectangular tube 104 can be embedded in the positioning hole 111.

[0024] In use, rotate the second hand-tightening bolt 112 to move it out of the positioning hole 111, and then move the rectangular tube 104 up and down to adjust the height of the rectangular frame 101. Then rotate the second hand-tightening bolt 112 in the opposite direction to insert it into the positioning hole 111, thereby fixing the rectangular tube 104 and the rectangular rod 105 together. That is, the height adjustment of the rectangular frame 101 is completed, and the height of the annular elastic band 204 is adjusted.

[0025] In addition, the fixing assembly includes a U-shaped plate 108 fixed to the bottom of the rectangular rod 105, a hand-tightening bolt 109 is threaded into the U-shaped plate 108, and a pressure plate 110 is fixed to the end of the hand-tightening bolt 109 extending into the U-shaped plate 108.

[0026] In use, first move the U-shaped plate 108 so that the bed edge is embedded in the U-shaped plate 108. Then turn the hand-tightening bolt 109 to move the pressure plate 110 down until the pressure plate 110 and the bed edge are pressed together, so that the U-shaped plate 108 is fixed on the hospital bed. Then, pass the patient's feet through the circular elastic band 204 so that the circular elastic band 204 supports the feet, that is, the legs are lifted and fixed to fully expose the wound and facilitate medical staff to change dressings. Since the cylindrical rod 102 can slide in the cylindrical tube 103, the distance between the two U-shaped plates 108 can be adjusted so that the device can be fixed on hospital beds of different widths.

[0027] In addition, the drive assembly includes a worm gear 205 fixed to the outside of the rotating shaft 201, a worm 207 rotatably connected inside the rectangular frame 101, the worm 207 and the worm gear 205 meshing with each other, and a throttle 206 fixed to one end of the worm 207 extending outside the rectangular frame 101.

[0028] In use, after the U-shaped plate 108 is fixed on the hospital bed, first turn the handle 206 counterclockwise to make the worm gear 207 rotate. When the worm gear 207 rotates, it drives the worm wheel 205 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 201 and the winding roller 202 to rotate. This causes the winding roller 202 to unwind the traction rope 203 and lower the circular elastic band 204 onto the hospital bed, making it easier to fit the patient's feet into the circular elastic band 204. Then, turn the handle 206 clockwise to raise the circular elastic band 204, that is, to lift the patient's legs to fully expose the wound and facilitate medical staff to change the dressing.

[0029] The exemplary implementation of the solution proposed in this disclosure has been described in detail above with reference to preferred embodiments. However, those skilled in the art will understand that various modifications and alterations can be made to the above specific embodiments without departing from the spirit of this disclosure, and various combinations can be made to the various technical features and structures proposed in this disclosure without exceeding the protection scope of this disclosure, which is determined by the appended claims.
