Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical instruments, and particularly relates to a neonatal incubator cover, a neonatal incubator and a neonatal incubator system. BACKGROUND

[0002] A neonatal incubator is a medical device that provides an appropriate environmental temperature and humidity for newborns, especially premature infants, low birth weight infants, etc. It can simulate the environment in the uterus and maintain the stability of the body temperature of newborns. Because newborns, especially premature infants, have underdeveloped thermoregulation, thin subcutaneous fat, and a relatively large body surface area, they are prone to heat loss and hypothermia. The incubator adjusts the internal temperature to ensure uniform distribution of the internal temperature, thereby creating a warm and comfortable environment for the newborn. The front side of the neonatal incubator usually has two operation windows. The operation windows provide a direct access channel for medical personnel to contact the newborn, allowing them to perform routine nursing operations without opening the entire box door of the incubator. For example, medical personnel can change the diaper of the newborn, adjust the posture of the newborn, and pat the back to soothe the newborn, etc. through the operation windows.

[0003] In the prior art, the two operation windows are usually circular holes or elliptical holes, and each operation window allows one hand of the medical personnel to operate inside the box. However, the two operation windows are usually kept at a certain distance, i.e., there is a partition between the two operation windows. The closer the two operation windows are, the smaller the distance between the two hands will be, and the smaller the internal operation space will be. The farther the two operation windows are, the larger the distance between the two hands will be, and the larger the internal operation space will be. Therefore, the two operation windows are usually set at a large distance, which reduces the coordination of the two hands and makes it difficult for the two arms to approach for more complex operations. However, if the entire box door is directly opened for more complex operations, the heat inside the box will rapidly decrease, which will affect the safety of the newborn. In the process of simulating a neonatal ward in a college, the existing structure of the neonatal incubator is not convenient for students to operate, and in a hospital, the existing structure of the neonatal incubator is not convenient for medical personnel with little experience to operate, which further affects the treatment effect.

[0004] A neonatal incubator cover structure is disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent No. 202420994235.6, which has two operation windows kept at a large distance. A neonatal incubator inside turning device is disclosed in Chinese Invention Patent No. 202010786337.5, which solves the problem of high work intensity of medical personnel after entering the incubator. Essentially, the hands cannot approach each other, which makes the posture more laborious, and the improved structure is very complex. If the two operation windows are directly enlarged or connected to form a large hole, the loss of heat inside the box will be greatly increased every time the operation window is opened, which is not conducive to the care of the newborn.
