[0021] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, but should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0022] Example:
[0023] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this utility model provides a home-based elderly care bed, including a bed frame 41. The bed frame 41 provides a stable support structure for the entire care bed. A base 11 is located below the bed frame 41, and a first adjustment component is mounted on the base 11. The first adjustment component includes a bidirectional lead screw 111 and a first drive motor 112. This configuration allows for height adjustment of the bed frame 41, enabling users to adjust the bed height according to their needs and improving the applicability of the device. A first adjustment groove 115 and a first drive motor 112 are located at the top of the base 11. The bidirectional lead screw 111 passes through the first adjustment groove 115, and the output shaft of the first drive motor 112 is connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw 111. Two sets of moving parts 113 are sleeved on the bidirectional lead screw 111, and each moving part 113 is connected to a fixed block 31 via a first connecting rod 114. Users can control the height adjustment of the bed frame 41 by operating the first drive motor 112, enabling the device to meet the needs of different users and care scenarios, improving the convenience of the device and enhancing the user's ability to adjust the height. A second adjustment assembly and two sets of bed boards are provided above the bed frame 41, one of which is a movable board 22, the bottom of which is connected to the second adjustment assembly.
[0024] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the second adjustment component includes a lead screw 121 and a second drive motor 122. This configuration allows for adjustment of the angle of the movable plate 22, enabling the user to find a more comfortable lying position and improving the overall comfort of the device. The top of the bed frame 41 is provided with a second adjustment groove 126 and a second drive motor 122. The lead screw 121 passes through the second adjustment groove 126, which has sliding grooves on both sides. A movable block 123 is fitted onto the lead screw 121, and protruding shafts 124 are provided on both sides of the movable block 123. The protruding shafts 124 are engaged in the sliding grooves and are connected to the movable plate 22 via second connecting rods 125. The user can change the angle of the movable plate 22 by activating the second drive motor 122, allowing the device to adapt to different user postures, thus improving its adaptability and enhancing the user experience.
[0025] like Figure 2 , 4As shown, the other bed board is a fixed board 21, with a defecation opening on the fixed board 21. A bedpan 51 is located below the defecation opening and is slidably connected to the bed frame 41 via a slide rail assembly located at the top of the bed frame 41. This design allows users to conveniently relieve themselves in bed, improving the ease of care. The slide rail assembly includes a slide rail 61 located at the top of the bed frame 41. Limiting blocks 62 are detachably installed at both ends of the slide rail 61, and a slider 63 is slidably mounted on the slide rail 61, connected to the bottom of the bedpan 51. Users can pull out or push back the bedpan 51 by sliding the slider 63, improving the practicality of the device. A third adjustment assembly is located between the two bed boards, including multiple turning boards 71. The turning boards 71 assist users in turning over, reducing the risk of pressure sores and enhancing the nursing function of the device.
[0026] The third adjustment component also includes an electric push rod 141, which is mounted on the top of the bed frame 41. A support platform 42 is located on the top of the bed frame 41, and the support platform 42 is rotatably connected to one end of the turning board 71. The other end of the turning board 71 is connected to the bed frame 41 via the electric push rod 141. Both the bed board and the turning board 71 have mounting slots on their tops, and the heating element 81 is installed in these slots. The user can control the electric push rod 141 to turn the turning board 71, enabling the device to provide better care and improve user comfort. A power supply 91 and a controller 101 are located on the top of the bed frame 41. The controller 101 is electrically connected to the power supply 91 and the heating element 81, enabling control of the heating element 81's operating status to meet the user's different temperature needs. The controller 101 can be a Delta DVP28SV digital controller, and the heating element 81 can be a Skyworth SWH1806 ceramic heating element. Meanwhile, the base 11 has multiple damping rods 12 on its top, and the top of the damping rods 12 is connected to the bottom of the bed frame 41, which ensures the stability of the bed frame 41 during height adjustment or use, reduces vibration and impact, and provides users with a safer and more comfortable experience.
[0027] The bed frame 41 is equipped with a support frame 131, and both the bed board and the turning board 71 are secured within the support frame 131. The support frame 131 has through holes on both sides, and the movable plate 22 has round shafts 23 on both sides, which pass through the through holes. This structural design ensures the stable installation and movement of the bed board and the turning board 71, improving the reliability of the device.
[0028] like Figure 1 , 2As shown, the bed frame 41 has rotatable guardrails 151 on both sides, multiple sets of casters 161 at the bottom of the base 11, and multiple mattresses 171 on the bed board. The guardrails 151 enhance user safety; the casters 161 facilitate the movement of the nursing bed; and the multiple mattresses 171 increase user comfort. Users can rotate the guardrails 151 to adjust their position as needed; move the casters 161 to change the position of the nursing bed; and enjoy comfortable sleep with the soft support of the mattresses 171.
[0029] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:
[0030] In use, users can operate the first drive motor 112, the second drive motor 122, and the electric push rod 141 via the controller 101 to adjust the height of the bed frame 41, the angle of the bed board, and the ability to turn over, according to their own needs. The heating element 81 provides warmth in cold weather. The bedpan 51 facilitates the elderly's excretion, and the slide rail assembly ensures its usability. Components such as the guardrail 151, casters 161, and mattress 171 work together to provide comfortable, convenient, and safe care services for home-based elderly care. When the height of the bed frame 41 needs to be adjusted, the first drive motor 112 is activated, driving the bidirectional lead screw 111 to rotate, causing the moving part 113 to move, thereby adjusting the height of the bed frame 41 through the first connecting rod 114 and the fixed block 31. To change the angle of the movable plate 22, the second drive motor 122 is activated, driving the lead screw 121 to rotate, causing the movable block 123 to move, which in turn drives the movable plate 22 to rotate through the cam shaft 124 and the second connecting rod 125. When assisting the elderly to turn over, control the extension and retraction of the electric push rod 141 to push the turning board 71 to flip.
[0031] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It is obvious to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments.
