Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bed washing and care technology, specifically relating to a head cleaning tool for bedridden patients. Background Technology

[0002] Head cleaning care for bedridden patients is an indispensable part of medical care, and it is of great significance for promoting patient recovery, preventing complications, and improving patients' quality of life.

[0003] Existing head cleaning tools are usually a fixed-height basin that can hold and drain water. They are simple in structure, easy to place on the bedside or bed for bedridden patients, and are low in cost and easy to use.

[0004] Traditional shampooing tools are usually fixed in height and cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the height of the nursing bed or the specific needs of the patient. Because the height is not adjustable, patients may feel increased pressure on their neck or back due to improper posture when receiving head cleaning, which may even cause pain. This discomfort is particularly noticeable for patients who are bedridden for a long time, have difficulty moving, or are physically weak.

[0005] Furthermore, due to the needs of people with different body types, fixed-height water basins are not suitable for everyone. For example, when a person is overweight, the area supporting their neck may be too large, and the area near the neck may not be cleaned properly.

[0006] In summary, there is an urgent need for a height-adjustable head cleaning tool for bedridden patients. Utility Model Content

[0007] To address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, this utility model provides a head cleaning tool for bedridden patients, solving the problem that the height of existing head cleaning tools cannot be adjusted.

[0008] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0009] A head cleaning device for bedridden patients includes a basin and a headrest. The headrest is positioned on top of the basin, and the basin and the headrest form a height-adjustable cleaning space. The cleaning space is used to support the patient's head and collect cleaning water. The headrest is an inflatable cushion used to inflate the headrest according to the patient's body shape, thereby adjusting the height of the cleaning space.

[0010] Preferably, the headrest includes a main ring and a bolster, the bolster being fixedly connected to the main ring, the bolster being used to abut against the patient's neck, and the height of the bolster being higher than the height of the main ring to prevent cleaning water from leaking out of the bolster.

[0011] Preferably, the water basin has a centrally recessed structure.

[0012] Preferably, it also includes a support pillow for supporting the patient's head. The basin has a threaded groove in the center, and the support pillow has a threaded part that is threadedly connected to the threaded groove, for adjusting the height of the support pillow to a height that is compatible with the cleaning space.

[0013] Preferably, it also includes a water outlet pipe, which is connected to a water outlet provided at the bottom of the basin side, for draining the cleaning water in the cleaning space.

[0014] Preferably, the ratio of the circumference of the occipital portion to that of the main ring portion is 1:8.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] This application allows the cleaning device to be adapted to bedridden patients of different body types and heights by adjusting the height of the headrest.

[0021] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0022] like Figures 1-2As shown, a head cleaning tool for bedridden patients includes a basin 1 and a head pillow 2. The head pillow 2 is placed on top of the basin 1, and the basin 1 and the head pillow 2 form a height-adjustable cleaning space. The cleaning space is used to support the patient's head and receive cleaning water. The head pillow 2 is an inflatable air cushion, which is used to inflate the head pillow 2 according to the patient's body shape to adjust the height of the cleaning space.

[0023] In this embodiment, the height of the cleaning space formed between the headrest 2 and the water basin 1 is adjusted by inflating and deflating the headrest 2. Specifically, the headrest 2 is an inflatable air cushion, which allows caregivers or family members to increase its height by inflating the headrest 2 or decrease its height by deflating it according to the patient's body shape and specific needs. This adjustment method is simple, direct, and can accurately adapt to the height and body shape of different patients, ensuring that the head is properly supported during the cleaning process.

[0024] In summary, by adjusting the height of the headrest 2, this cleaning tool can be adapted to bedridden patients of different body types and heights. The adjustable height allows the patient's head to be placed more stably in the cleaning space, facilitating head cleaning operations for nursing staff. The inflatable cushion design of the headrest 2 has good elasticity and support, and can adapt to the shape and weight of the patient's head, reducing discomfort during the cleaning process and improving the patient's overall comfort.

[0025] In one embodiment, the headrest 2 includes a main ring portion 21 and a pillow portion 22, which is fixedly connected to the main ring portion 21. The pillow portion 22 is used to support the patient's neck, and its height is higher than that of the main ring portion 21. This serves two purposes: first, to ensure that the patient's neck is adequately supported, thus improving overall comfort; and second, to utilize the height difference between the pillow portion 22 and the main ring portion 21 to form a natural waterproof barrier. When cleaning water is poured or splashed into the basin 1, the height advantage of the pillow portion 22 can effectively prevent the cleaning water from leaking out from under the patient's neck, thereby keeping the patient's body and the bed sheet dry. In addition, the main ring portion 21 and the pillow portion 22 have a smooth transition, avoiding an excessive height difference between them, which would cause inconvenience to the cleaner.

[0026] In one embodiment, the basin 1 has a centrally recessed structure and is made of plastic. It can hold water and provides support. When a bedridden patient needs to use head cleaning tools, their head is placed in the cleaning space formed by the headrest 2 and the basin 1. The headrest 2 provides necessary head support, while the basin 1 is responsible for catching the water used during the cleaning process. Due to the recessed design of the basin 1 and the supportive effect of the plastic material, it ensures that water will not overflow or leak during the cleaning process, thereby keeping the patient and the surrounding environment clean and dry.

[0027] In one embodiment, a support pillow 3 is also included. The support pillow 3 is used to support the patient's head. A threaded groove 11 is provided in the center of the basin 1, and the support pillow 3 is provided with a threaded part 31. The threaded part 31 is threadedly connected to the threaded groove 11, which is used to adjust the height of the support pillow 3 to a height suitable for the cleaning space. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the support pillow 3, the caregiver only needs to screw the threaded part 31 of the support pillow 3 into the threaded groove 11 of the basin 1. The height can be finely adjusted by rotating the part. The threaded connection not only ensures a tight connection between the support pillow 3 and the basin 1, preventing the support pillow 3 from accidentally moving or falling off during the cleaning process, but also allows the caregiver to accurately adjust the support pillow 3 to a height suitable for the cleaning space according to the patient's specific needs and body characteristics.

[0028] In one embodiment, a water outlet pipe 4 is also included. The water outlet pipe 4 is connected to a water outlet 12 located at the bottom of the side of the basin 1. This water outlet pipe 4 is used to drain the cleaning water in the cleaning space, ensuring that the water in the cleaning space is completely drained during the drainage process. When the cleaning water needs to be drained, the caregiver only needs to open the valve of the water outlet pipe 4 connected to the water outlet 12. Using existing technology, the cleaning water flows into the water outlet pipe 4 through the water outlet 12 and is eventually discharged into an external container. The water level in the cleaning space will gradually decrease until it is completely drained. The addition of the water outlet pipe 4 greatly simplifies the drainage operation, allowing caregivers to quickly and effectively drain the water in the cleaning space, thereby reducing the time spent on cleaning after the cleaning process. The addition of the water pipe 4 makes this head cleaning tool for bedridden patients more complete, not only meeting basic cleaning needs but also providing a convenient drainage function.

[0029] In one embodiment, the circumference ratio of the occipital portion 22 to the main ring portion 21 is 1:8, which makes the occipital portion 22 provide good support for the necks of people with different body shapes. The aim is to ensure that the occipital portion 22 can provide stable and comfortable support for the necks of people with different body shapes. As a key component of the head pillow 2, the size and shape of the occipital portion 22 play a crucial role in the support effect. Through a large number of ergonomic studies and data analysis, when the circumference ratio of the occipital portion 22 to the main ring portion 21 reaches 1:8, the occipital portion 22 can just cover the area of ​​the patient's neck without causing the patient too much pressure or restriction. This allows the patient to maintain a natural neck posture when receiving cleaning care, reducing tension and anxiety caused by discomfort or pressure.

[0030] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
