Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turning over elderly patients, specifically to an assistive device for turning over elderly patients. Background Technology

[0002] As is well known, elderly patients often find it difficult to turn over in bed due to their advanced age and other illnesses, and some seriously ill patients often require several caregivers to turn them over. There is a type of turning pillow with a triangular prism shape and a sloping, flat surface. Its main function is to provide tilted support for the patient's body, reducing pressure and preventing pressure sores. However, the flat, sloping surface of this turning pillow is not conducive to fully embracing the body, resulting in poor comfort; furthermore, it lacks a mechanism for caregivers to gently push the elderly patient over, making it still quite difficult for staff to turn the patient. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides an assistive device for turning over elderly patients. This assistive device can improve the wrapping effect on elderly patients and assist staff in performing pushing operations, which is conducive to turning over elderly patients and effectively solves the problems mentioned in the background technology.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a turning aid for elderly patients, including a fixing block, wherein the fixing block is a triangular prism in the shape of an inverted object, a portion of the top is cut off to form a planar platform, the left sloping surface is a concave arc surface structure, and an arc-shaped pillow pad is detachably provided on the outside of the arc surface structure.

[0005] A fixing rod is fixedly installed on the top of the pillow, and a ball sleeve with a right opening is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the center position of the fixing rod. A push-pull structure that cooperates with the ball sleeve is fixedly installed on the platform to the right of the ball sleeve.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution, the jacking structure includes a fixed seat, which is fixed at the center of the top surface of the platform. A screw is screwed through the fixed seat from right to left. The left end of the screw is aligned with the right opening of the ball sleeve, and a horizontal screwing handle is fixed to the right end of the screw.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution, the right side of the fixing block is provided with arc-shaped fixing ears at intervals.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution, the pillow includes an internal sponge block, and a textile cover is provided on the outside of the sponge block.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, the upper and lower ends of the bottom surface of the pillow are respectively bonded to the upper and lower ends of the arc-shaped structure by hook and loop fasteners.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the bottom surface of the pillow is also fixedly provided with a fixing strap extending to the left at intervals.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an assistive device for turning over in elderly patients, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. This utility model features a fixed block that is an inverted triangular prism with a portion of the top cut off to form a flat platform. The left sloping surface has an inwardly concave arc structure, and an arc-shaped pillow pad can be detached from the outside of the arc structure. In use, the fixed block is a rigid structure that can effectively provide support, while the arc structure can provide good wrapping for the elderly patient's body on one side, increasing the patient's comfort. The pillow pad is relatively soft and comes into contact with the patient's body, further increasing the comfort of use. The pillow pad is a split structure, which is convenient for later disassembly, cleaning, and maintenance.

[0013] 2. This utility model features a fixed rod at the top of the pillow, with a ball sleeve with a right opening fixed on the upper surface of the center of the fixed rod. A pushing structure that cooperates with the ball sleeve is fixed on the platform to the right of the ball sleeve. In use, the fixed rod and the ball sleeve can increase the hardness of the pillow at the top, which facilitates the pushing structure to push the pillow to the left, making it easier to push and turn the elderly patient.

[0014] 3. This utility model includes a fixed base with a push-pull structure. The fixed base is fixed to the center of the top surface of the platform. A screw is screwed through the fixed base from right to left. The left end of the screw is aligned with the right opening of the ball sleeve. A horizontal screw handle is fixed to the right end of the screw. In use, the fixed block and the pillow can be used as a turning pillow. When it is necessary to turn an elderly patient, the screw can be screwed from right to left. The screw moves to the left and pushes the ball sleeve on the left side, thereby driving the pillow to turn the patient's body to the left. This helps the staff to turn the patient and avoids the problem of the staff having to push the patient's body by hand. When not turning the patient, the screw can be screwed to the right to remove it, reducing the space occupied.

[0015] 4. This utility model has arc-shaped fixing ears fixed at intervals on the front and back of the right side of the fixing block. When in use, the fixing ears and the bed rail can be fixed by tying ropes when turning over, which increases the firmness and stability of the fixing block.

[0016] 5. This utility model also features a fixing strap extending to the left that is fixed at intervals on the bottom surface of the pillow. When in use, before turning over an elderly patient, the left end of the fixing strap can be fixed to the left side of the bed rail to prevent the bottom of the pillow from slipping upwards when the pushing mechanism pushes the pillow from the top.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example 1

[0024] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an assistive device for turning over an elderly patient includes a fixing block 1, which is a triangular prism that lies flat. A portion of the top is cut off to form a flat platform 12. The left sloping surface of the platform is a concave arc-shaped structure 11, and an arc-shaped pillow 2 is detachably mounted on the outer side of the arc-shaped structure 11. A fixing rod 22 is fixed to the top of the pillow 2. A ball sleeve 23 with a right opening is fixed to the upper surface of the center position of the fixing rod 22. A pushing structure 3 that cooperates with the ball sleeve 23 is fixed on the platform 12 to the right of the ball sleeve 23.

[0025] The jacking structure 3 includes a fixed seat 31, which is fixed at the center of the top surface of the platform 12. A screw 32 is screwed through the fixed seat 31 from right to left. The left end of the screw 32 is aligned with the right opening of the ball sleeve 23. A horizontal screw handle 33 is fixedly provided at the right end of the screw 32.

[0026] The right side of the fixing block 1 is provided with arc-shaped fixing ears 13 (located at the top and bottom middle positions of the fixing block 1).

[0027] The pillow 2 includes an internal sponge block (not shown), and a textile cover (not separately marked) is provided on the outside of the sponge block. The fixing rod 22 is glued and fixed to the surface of the textile cover of the pillow 2.

[0028] The bottom and top ends of the pillow 2 are connected to the top and bottom ends of the curved structure 11 by hook and loop fasteners 21.

[0029] In use, the fixing block 1 is a rigid structure that effectively provides support. The curved structure 11 provides good wrapping around the elderly patient's body on one side, increasing patient comfort. The pillow pad 2 is relatively soft and comes into contact with the patient's body, further increasing comfort. The pillow pad 2 is a modular structure, facilitating disassembly, cleaning, and maintenance. The fixing rod 22 and ball sleeve 23 increase the rigidity of the pillow pad 2 at the top, facilitating the pushing structure 3 to push the pillow pad 2 to the left, making it easier to turn the elderly patient around. Specifically, the caregiver first gently lifts the elderly patient by hand. Then, the turning aid, consisting of the fixing block 1 and the pillow 2, is inserted under the patient's back. The screw 32 is then turned from right to left (the hook and loop fastener on the pillow 2 can be removed beforehand). The screw 32 moves to the left, inserting into the ball sleeve 23 and pushing against it, thus turning the pillow 2 to the left and assisting the caregiver in turning the patient, avoiding the strain of manually pushing the patient. After turning, the screw 32 is turned to the right to remove it, reducing space usage. The pillow 2 returns to its original position, engaging with the fixing block 1 and providing continuous support against the patient's back. The fixing block 1 can be secured to the fixing lug 13 and the bed rail with a rope (not shown), increasing its stability and strength. Example 2

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, the bottom surface of the pillow 2 is also fixed with a fixing strap 4 extending to the left at intervals.

[0031] When using the device, before turning over an elderly patient, the left end of the fixing strap 4 can be fixed to the left side of the bed rail to prevent the bottom of the pillow pad 2 from slipping upwards when the pushing mechanism 3 pushes the pillow pad 2 from the top.
