Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an emergency escape device, and in particular to a mattress-type stretcher for carrying people. Background Technology

[0002] Most critically ill, paralyzed, or mobility-impaired patients are unable to move freely, so they often cannot escape on their own during disasters such as earthquakes or fires, requiring assistance to evacuate or be transported to safe locations. Current rescue and escape methods include single-person carrying or lifting of the patient, or multiple people carrying the patient onto a wheelchair or stretcher. However, because these methods do not involve proper covering, the patient's head, neck, hands, and feet are easily injured during emergency transport due to impacts and shaking. Furthermore, these methods are laborious and time-consuming, and patients without protective equipment cannot utilize existing high-rise escape ramps for rapid evacuation. Therefore, ensuring the safe and rapid evacuation of patients during disasters has become a crucial issue that medical institutions need to address. Summary of the Invention

[0023] The connecting unit 2 is mounted on the padding unit 1 and includes two first head-side connecting members 21 respectively disposed on the left and right sides of the rear top surface of the side enclosure 12, two second head-side connecting members 22 respectively disposed on the left and right sides of the rear bottom surface of the head enclosure 13, two first foot-side connecting members 23 respectively disposed on the left and right sides of the front top surface of the side enclosure 12, and two second foot-side connecting members 24 respectively disposed on the left and right sides of the front bottom surface of the foot enclosure 14. In this embodiment, each first head-side connecting member 21 and the corresponding second head-side connecting member 22 is a set of male and female hook-and-loop fasteners that can be fastened to each other, and each first foot-side connecting member 23 and the corresponding second foot-side connecting member 24 is a set of male and female hook-and-loop fasteners that can be fastened to each other. However, in practice, the male and female hook-and-loop fasteners can also be other structures, such as, but not limited to, a set of buttons, snaps, or magnetic snaps, as long as they are detachable interconnected structures.

[0024] The restraint unit 3 is mounted on the padding unit 1 and includes a headband 31, an abdominal binder 32, and two footbands 33 spaced apart from each other and connected between the side circumference portions 12. The headband 31 is located behind the abdominal binder 32 and can be opened to restrain and secure the head circumference portion 13. The footbands 33 are located in front of the abdominal binder 32 and can be opened to restrain and secure the foot portion 14. Each of the headband 31, the abdominal binder 32, and the footbands 33 is an adjustable restraint strap, constraint strap, or fixing strap. In this embodiment, the pulling and tightening directions of the footbands 33 are opposite, but this is not a limitation in design. It should be noted that the number of footbands 33 is not limited to two; one, three, etc., can be used depending on actual needs.

[0025] The handle unit 4 includes two U-shaped rear handles 41 protruding to the left and right from the rear side of the bottom surface of the support portion 11, two U-shaped front handles 42 protruding to the left and right from the front side of the bottom surface of the support portion 11, two rear connectors 43 connected to the rear handles 41 and disposed on the bottom surface of the support portion 11, and two front connectors 44 connected to the front handles 42 and disposed on the bottom surface of the support portion 11. The design of the rear connectors 43 and the front connectors 44 allows the support portion 11 to be lifted to prevent sagging. It should be noted that the number of rear connectors 43 is not limited to two, and the number of front connectors 44 is not limited to two; they can be one, three, etc., depending on actual needs.

[0026] In use, the pad unit 1 can be positioned on a flat mattress (see...). Figure 1 and Figure 2 ) and the folded stretcher condition (see Figure 3 (Changes occur between) For example Figure 1 As shown, under normal circumstances, the pad unit 1 becomes the mattress, suitable for patient 9 (see...). Figure 3 (Lie down.) At this time, the rear handle 41 and the front handle 42 are covered below by the side panel 12.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figures 2 to 3 As shown, when disasters such as earthquakes or fires occur, medical staff or other rescuers assist in bending the pad unit 1 into the stretcher state to rescue the patient 9. When folding the pad unit 1, first fold the head cover 13 forward, that is, fold the rear blocking area 135 along the angle of the oblique rear mountain fold line 134, and fold it forward along the horizontal rear boundary line 131 and the horizontal rear valley fold line 132, so that the rear blocking area 135 covers the back of the patient's head. Then, fold the head cover area 136 along the straight rear valley fold line 133 into an inverted U-shape, and extend it into the space between the support part 11 and the side enclosure part 12 to cover the top and sides of the head. At the same time, bend the side enclosure parts 12 upward and extend them respectively. The second head side connecting member 22 of the connecting unit 2 is connected to the first head side connecting member 21 respectively. The head cover 13 is bound and secured between the side enclosure parts 12 by the head strap 31 of the binding unit 3 to protect the head of the patient 9.

[0028] The rescuer then folds the foot cover 14 backward, that is, folds the front cover 145 along the angle of the diagonal forward mountain fold line 144, and folds it backward along the transverse front boundary line 141 and the transverse forward valley fold line 142, so that the front cover 145 covers the front of the patient's two feet. Then, the foot cover 146 extends backward into the space between the support part 11 and the side part 12, covering the two feet and folding the center inward towards the space between the two feet to form an M shape. It is then connected to the first foot side joint 23 by the second foot side joint 24 of the connecting unit 2. Then, the foot cover 14 is bound and secured between the side parts 12 by the foot strap 33 of the binding unit 3, blocking and fixing the feet so that they do not protrude forward or slip off, thus protecting the patient's feet.

[0029] Finally, the abdominal binder 32 of the restraint unit 3 is used to secure the center of the side circumference 12, so that the side circumference 12 stands upright and arches to protect the left and right sides of the patient 9, thereby protecting the patient 9's body. Therefore, when the padding unit 1 is bent into the stretcher state, the supporting part 11, the side circumference 12, the head circumference 13, and the foot circumference 14 together define a protective space 5 surrounded by the patient, which is used to protect and position the patient 9. It should be noted that the above-mentioned order of wrapping and binding of the head circumference 13 and the foot circumference 14 or the side circumference 12 can also be interchanged or changed, and is not limited to this embodiment.

[0030] When the mattress unit 1 is in the stretcher state, the rear handle 41 and the front handle 42 of the lifting unit 4 protrude from both sides of the mattress unit 1, allowing the rescuer to lift and carry it for evacuation. Furthermore, this mattress-type stretcher can also be used with high-rise escape slides (not shown) for rapid evacuation. In use, simply position the foot cover 14 of the stretcher towards the entrance of the high-rise escape slide and insert it into the slide. It can then slide downwards along the slide, and the anti-slip part 15 provides resistance during sliding, ensuring a smooth descent. This allows for safe and rapid evacuation.

[0031] In summary, the mattress-type stretcher of this utility model is designed such that the mattress unit 1 can change between the mattress state and the stretcher state. In emergency rescue, the mattress-type stretcher is folded into the stretcher state to surround and protect the patient 9, which facilitates the emergency escape of the patient 9 and achieves the effect of safe and rapid evacuation. It is quite practical and can indeed achieve the purpose of this utility model.
