Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of critical care technology, and more specifically, to a self-adjustable critical care turning device. Background Technology
[0002] When caring for critically ill patients, prolonged bed rest can easily lead to pressure sores and ischemia of the skin tissue. Therefore, it is necessary to frequently help them turn over. Turning over can effectively reduce pressure, prevent pressure sores, relieve muscle fatigue on all sides of the body, adjust the distribution of blood in the body, promote blood circulation, prevent venous thrombosis, and facilitate changing or tidying the bed, as well as performing back skin care, thus meeting the needs of treatment and nursing care.
[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN221731328U discloses a critical care turning device. This design, through the use of a threaded rod, allows for easier adjustment of the adjustment plate position when turning critically ill patients. Rotating a knob causes the threaded rod to slide the adjustment plate along the outer wall of a limiting groove, positioning it to a position where the patient can use their hand for leverage. This improves the ease of assisting patients in turning and enhances the control of the device's ability to provide leverage during assisted turning. However, the following drawbacks exist in its implementation: the device lacks effective protective measures during the turning process, and it cannot be autonomously adjusted, requiring assistance from medical personnel.
[0004] Therefore, an adjustable turning device for critical care is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0028] Example:
[0029] Please see Figure 1-5 An adjustable critical care turning device includes four connecting blocks 1, each with a locking roller 2 fixedly connected to its lower end, a support mechanism 3 fixedly connected to the upper end of the four connecting blocks 1, an intelligent controller 4 fixedly connected to the left side of the support mechanism 3, and a turning mechanism 5 fixedly connected to the upper part of the support mechanism 3.
[0030] This solution uses an intelligent controller 4 to control the operation of the turning mechanism 5. The turning mechanism 5 works in conjunction with the support mechanism 3 to quickly help critically ill patients turn over. The four locking rollers 2 facilitate the movement of the device, improving its flexibility.
[0031] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 The support mechanism 3 includes four support legs 31. The lower ends of the four support legs 31 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of four connecting blocks 1 respectively. Two short rods 32 are fixedly connected to the ends of the four support legs 31 that are close to each other. Two long rods 33 are fixedly connected to the ends of the four support legs 31 that are close to each other. A reinforcing plate 34 is fixedly connected to the ends of the two long rods 33 that are close to each other. Two headboards 35 are fixedly connected to the ends of the four support legs 31 that are close to each other. Two side panels 36 are fixedly connected to the ends of the four support legs 31 that are close to each other. A turning airbag 37 is fixedly connected to the ends of the two side panels 36 that are close to each other.
[0032] This design uses four support legs 31, two long rods 33, and two short rods 32 to form the overall frame of the device. Two side panels 36 and two headboards 35 are used to surround the device in the front, back, left, and right directions, which can effectively prevent critically ill patients from falling during turning. At the same time, two turning airbags 37 can protect the patient during turning and prevent the patient from bumping into the device, making it relatively safe.
[0033] Please see Figure 2-4The turning mechanism 5 includes an air cushion 51, a turning component 52 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the air cushion 51, and a drive component 53 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the turning component 52.
[0034] The turning assembly 52 includes a bed board 521. Two positioning pieces 522 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the bed board 521. Guide rods 523 are fixedly connected to the ends of the two positioning pieces 522 that are close to each other. Sliding sliders 524 are slidably connected to the outer surfaces of the two guide rods 523. The ends of the two sliding sliders 524 that are far apart from each other are fixedly connected to the ends of the two headboards 35 that are close to each other.
[0035] The drive assembly 53 includes a support plate 531. The right end of the support plate 531 is fixedly connected to the left end of the long rod 33 located on the left side. A motor 532 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support plate 531. The output end of the motor 532 is fixedly connected to a lead screw 533 via a coupling. Two positioning strips 534 are rotatably connected to the outer surface of the lead screw 533. The lower ends of the two positioning strips 534 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two long rods 33 respectively. The ends of the two positioning strips 534 that are close to each other are fixedly connected to two guide rods 536. Slider 537 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of each guide rod 536. The upper ends of the two sliders 537 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the bed board 521. A moving block 535 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the lead screw 533. The upper end of the moving block 535 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the bed board 521.
[0036] This solution uses an intelligent controller 4 to control the start of motor 532. There are two methods: one is to directly press the button on the intelligent controller 4, which is convenient for nursing staff; the other is to use voice control, which is convenient for patients to use when nursing staff are busy. When motor 532 is started, lead screw 533 will rotate on the inner surface of the two positioning bars 534 under the action of motor 532. The rotation of lead screw 533 will drive moving block 535 to move on its outer surface. When motor 532 rotates forward, moving block 535 will move to the left on the outer surface of lead screw 533; when motor 532 rotates in reverse, moving block 535 will move to the right on the outer surface of lead screw 533. The end is fixedly connected to the lower end of the bed board 521, so when the moving block 535 moves, it will move the bed board 521 along with it. By using the cooperation of two sliders 537, two guide rods 536, two guide rods 523 and two sliders 524, the stability of the bed board 521 when it moves can be guaranteed. When the bed board 521 moves, it will bring the air cushion 51 above it along with it. At this time, the critically ill patient lying on the air cushion 51 will also move with it. When the critically ill patient moves to the left, the side will come into contact with the turning airbag 37. Under the action of the turning airbag 37, the patient can slowly change from a lying position to a right lateral position. Similarly, when the critically ill patient moves to the right, the lying position will change to a left lateral position. This can effectively help the critically ill patient reduce pressure and prevent pressure sores.
[0037] It should be noted that the specific installation methods, circuit connection methods, and control methods of the locking roller 2, intelligent controller 4, and motor 532 in this utility model are all conventional designs, and will not be described in detail in this utility model.
[0038] Working principle: When caring for critically ill patients, bedding and pillows can be placed on top of the air mattress 51, allowing the patient to lie on it. Two side panels 36 and two headboards 35 provide protection in all four directions (front, back, left, and right) to effectively prevent the patient from falling during turning. When the patient needs to turn, they can call for a nurse to operate the device or use the voice-activated device. Once the turning command is received by the intelligent controller 4, the controller will start the motor 532. The lead screw 533 will rotate on the inner surface of the two positioning bars 534 under the action of the motor 532. The rotation of the lead screw 533 will drive the moving block 535 to move on its outer surface. When the motor 532 rotates forward, the moving block 535 will move on the outer surface of the lead screw 533. When the surface moves to the left, and the motor 532 reverses, the moving block 535 moves to the right on the outer surface of the lead screw 533. When the moving block 535 moves, it will move the bed board 521. By using the cooperation of two sliders 537, two guide rods 536, two guide rods 523, and two sliders 524, the stability of the bed board 521 when it moves can be guaranteed. When the bed board 521 moves, it will bring the air cushion 51 above it with it. At this time, the critically ill patient lying on the air cushion 51 will also move with it. When the critically ill patient moves to the left, the side will come into contact with the turning airbag 37. Under the action of the turning airbag 37, the patient can slowly change from lying down to right lateral position and complete the turning. Similarly, when the critically ill patient moves to the right, the lying down position will change to left lateral position.
[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model; however, the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and its improved concept, should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
