Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical devices, and in particular to medical bed sheets. Background Technology

[0002] Medical bed sheet accessories are devices that use bed sheet fabric and folding handles to transport and transfer patients and assist patients in turning over.

[0003] Common methods for transferring patients from bed include direct lifting by medical staff and using a medical transfer board. Direct lifting by medical staff makes it difficult to maintain the patient's balance and stability, while using a medical transfer board requires the patient to cooperate with turning over and necessitates a proper height difference between the two surfaces. These methods may result in impacts to parts of the patient's body during transport, increasing the risk of fractures, dislocations, and other injuries. For patients with fractures, spinal injuries, or other special conditions, improper handling may cause secondary injuries and worsen their condition.

[0004] Changing bedsheets for bedridden patients often requires turning them over, which necessitates bending and twisting the body to adjust the patient's posture. This puts immense pressure on the lumbar spine, easily leading to lumbar muscle strain. Furthermore, uneven force during turning can cause secondary injuries to the patient.

[0005] Existing improvement measures suffer from problems such as high cost, difficulty in modification, impact on the use of ordinary bed sheets, inconvenience in storage, and difficulty in promotion. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a medical bed sheet assembly to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as secondary injury to patients during patient transfer, lumbar muscle strain of medical staff when changing bed sheets and turning over, and secondary injury to patients when changing bed sheets and turning over, as well as the problems that still exist in the existing improvement measures.

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a medical bed sheet assembly, including a bed sheet fabric and a folding handle. Flag sleeves are sewn onto the left and right sides of the bed sheet fabric. Each flag sleeve is divided into three equal parts by two arc-shaped openings. The folding handle is formed by side rods and a cross rod connected by a 90° rotating mechanism. When the folding handle is unfolded 90°, the side rod passes through the flag sleeve, and the end of the cross rod is connected to the end of the side rod, secured by a built-in press-type elastic self-locking mechanism.

[0008] As an improvement to the above scheme, the flag sleeves are sewn onto the back of the bed sheet fabric, 250mm from each end of the bed sheet fabric and 500mm from the long center line on both sides.

[0009] As an improvement to the above scheme, the distance between the two arc-shaped openings is 550mm. The length of each arc-shaped opening on the flag sleeve is 150mm.

[0010] As an improvement to the above solution, the 90° rotation mechanism at the connection between the side bar and the crossbar consists of a rotating shaft and a 90° limiting welding plate.

[0011] As an improvement to the above solution, when the folding handle is folded, the end of the crossbar is fixed to the side wall of the side bar by a built-in press-type elastic self-locking mechanism. The end of the crossbar is a hook, and when the end of the crossbar is folded, a guide groove is located at the corresponding position on the side bar.

[0012] As an improvement to the above solution, when the folding handle is unfolded to 90°, the ends of the crossbar and the side bar are fixed by a built-in press-type elastic self-locking mechanism. The end of the crossbar is a hook, and the end of the side bar is a guide groove.

[0013] As an improvement to the above solution, the crossbar of the folding lifting rod is a telescopic rod with two sections, consisting of locking points and locking point holes. The locking point holes are spaced 150mm apart, allowing the crossbar length to be adjusted to 850mm, 1000mm, and 1150mm.

[0014] As an improvement to the above solution, the side rod of the folding lifting rod is a telescopic rod with two sections, consisting of locking points and locking point holes. The spacing between the locking point holes is 150mm, allowing the side rod length to be adjusted to 2000mm, 2150mm, and 2300mm.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This medical bed sheet assembly transforms a bed sheet into a simple stretcher by sewing a flag sleeve onto the bed sheet fabric and adding a detachable folding handle, assisting medical staff in transporting patients and effectively reducing secondary injuries caused by improper handling. It also saves manpower for medical staff when transporting patients, reducing their workload. The design of the bed sheet fabric only requires adding a flag sleeve to the back of a regular bed sheet, making it low-cost, easy to modify, and not affecting the daily use of a regular bed sheet when not in use. The folding design of the horizontal and side bars, along with the built-in press-type elastic self-locking mechanism, ensures the structural stability and safety of the folding handle when in use. When not in use, the horizontal and side bars fold tightly together, greatly reducing space occupation and facilitating storage. When changing bed sheets for bedridden patients, this medical bed sheet assembly allows the bed sheet fabric to be threaded through one side of the handle to assist in turning the patient, improving the efficiency and quality of nursing work, reducing discomfort and risks to patients caused by uneven force during turning, and also reducing the possibility of injury to nurses during the operation.

[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this invention, and not all embodiments.

[0023] See attached document Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 This utility model is a medical bed sheet assembly, comprising a bed sheet fabric 1 and a folding lifting rod 4. Flag sleeves 2 are sewn onto the back of both sides of the bed sheet fabric 1, and each flag sleeve 2 has two arc-shaped openings 3 dividing it into three equal parts. The folding lifting rod 4 is formed by connecting side rods 5 and crossbars 6 via a 90° rotating mechanism 7.

[0024] When using a medical sheet assembly to move a patient, press the end of the crossbar 6. The folding lifting rod 4 can be unfolded by the built-in press-type elastic self-locking mechanism 9 between the end of the crossbar 6 and the side wall of the side rod 5. After the folding lifting rod 4 is unfolded 90°, the side rod 5 passes through the flag sleeve 2, and the end of the crossbar 6 is fixed to the end of the side rod 5 of the opposite folding lifting rod 4 by the built-in press-type elastic self-locking mechanism 9. Then place the outer sheets of the two flag sleeves on the sheet fabric between the two rods 5. When two people are moving the patient, one person can stand facing the bed on each side, holding the two arc-shaped openings 3 of the flag sleeve 2 with each hand. Alternatively, two people can stand facing the bed from the front and back of the sheet, holding the ends of the left and right rods 5 with each hand. When four people are moving a patient, two people can stand side by side on each side. One person holds the ends of the side bars 5 near the foot of the bed and the arc-shaped openings 3 of the flag sleeve 2 near the foot of the bed with both hands. The other person holds the ends of the side bars 5 near the head of the bed and the arc-shaped openings 3 of the flag sleeve 2 near the head of the bed with both hands. Alternatively, four people can stand facing the bed on each side, holding the two arc-shaped openings 3 of the flag sleeve 2 with their hands. The other two people stand facing the bed, one in front of the bed and one behind the bed sheet, holding the ends of the side bars 5 with their hands.

[0025] After handling, pressing the end of the crossbar 6 will separate the crossbar 6 from the side bar 5 via the built-in press-type elastic self-locking mechanism 9 at the end of the crossbar 6 and the end of the side bar 5. The side bar 5 can be pulled out from the flag sleeve 2, restoring the bed sheet to its normal use as a regular medical sheet with the flag sleeve sewn on the back side. The crossbar 6 can be folded by the 90° flipping mechanism 7, and pressing the end of the crossbar 6 will fix it to the side of the side bar 5 via the built-in press-type elastic self-locking mechanism 9 at the end of the crossbar 6 and the side wall of the side bar 5, facilitating storage.

[0026] When changing bed sheets for bedridden patients using medical sheet assembly, pull one side of the sheet 1 out from under the bed, press the end of the crossbar 6, and the folding lifting rod 4 can be unfolded through the built-in press-type elastic self-locking mechanism 9 between the end of the crossbar 6 and the side wall of the side rod 5. After the folding lifting rod 4 is unfolded, the side rod 5 passes through the flag sleeve 2. Medical staff can hold the side rod 5 to assist the patient in turning over, which can make the patient's force more even.

[0027] The crossbar of the folding lifting rod is a telescopic rod with two sections, consisting of locking points and locking point holes 10. The locking point holes 10 are spaced 150mm apart, allowing the crossbar length to be adjusted to 850mm, 1000mm, and 1150mm. The side rod of the folding lifting rod is also a telescopic rod with two sections, consisting of locking points and locking point holes 10. The locking point holes 10 are spaced 150mm apart, allowing the side rod length to be adjusted to 2000mm, 2150mm, and 2300mm. This design adapts to various medical beds and application scenarios.

[0028] Of course, this design is not limited to the above-described embodiments; combinations of different features of the above embodiments can also achieve good results. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model, and these equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
