Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of obstetric nursing equipment technology, specifically to a reclining chair for postpartum women. Background Technology

[0002] After childbirth, mothers often cannot sit on a flat stool for extended periods due to episiotomy or tearing wounds. Their wounds are not yet fully healed, and they also need to breastfeed. On the one hand, doctors advise mothers to get out of bed and move around to promote the discharge of lochia and aid postpartum recovery. On the other hand, they should avoid overexertion from breastfeeding to prevent infection and further injury. Current techniques for addressing this issue present the following problems:

[0003] Chinese patent document CN216222057U discloses an improved reclining chair for maternal and infant care, comprising a U-shaped support frame, a second backrest, a reclining board, a first backrest, and a U-shaped stool, arranged sequentially from front to back and from high to low, all connected as a single unit. One side of the reclining board is the mother's reclining area, and the other side is the baby's reclining area. The second backrest is located at the front of the mother's reclining area, and its high end is connected to the U-shaped support frame. An IV stand is located on one side of the U-shaped support frame, and a table is located below the U-shaped support frame. The U-shaped stool is located at the rear of the mother's reclining area, and a U-shaped groove is provided in the middle of the side of the U-shaped stool away from the reclining board. The purpose of this utility model is to provide an improved reclining chair for maternal and infant care that can simultaneously meet the needs of postpartum women in various relaxation positions during recovery, such as supine, lateral, standing, and sitting positions; and to prevent the perineal wound from touching the bed or stool when the mother is breastfeeding, thus reducing the mother's pain and facilitating a faster postpartum recovery.

[0004] Although the aforementioned literature mentions U-shaped support frames for postpartum women to hold onto, the fixed position of the reclining chair means that the U-shaped support frames can only provide support and cannot assist postpartum women in walking and recovery, making their function relatively limited. In addition, since postpartum women have weak lower limb strength after childbirth and lack structures to support their lower limbs, this affects the efficiency of doctors in nursing and examining the postpartum women's lower limbs or perineum.

[0022] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a reclining chair specifically for postpartum women, including a movable base 1. A reclining chair back 2 is movably installed on the front top of the movable base 1. A hip support plate 3 is fixedly installed on the front side of the movable base 1. A leg rest plate 4 is movably installed on the front side of the hip support plate 3. A storage compartment 11 is provided on the top of the movable base 1. Two partition plates 12 are fixedly installed between the front and rear sides of the inner wall of the storage compartment 11. An adjusting threaded rod 13 is movably installed on the front side of the inner wall of the storage compartment 11. The adjusting threaded rod 13 is located between the two partition plates 12. The front end of the adjusting threaded rod 13 extends through to the rear side of the movable base 1 and is fixedly installed with a rotating handle. Hand 131, adjusting threaded rod 13 has a movable plate 132 threadedly installed on the outer wall of the movable plate 13. The left and right sides of the movable plate 132 overlap with the opposite sides of the two partition plates 12 respectively. The top of the movable plate 132 is fixedly installed with a pressing upright plate 133. The bottom of the movable base 1 is fixedly installed with four self-locking universal wheels 14 in a rectangular array. The bottom of the recliner backrest 2 is provided with a slide groove 21. The inner wall of the slide groove 21 is fixedly installed between the front and rear sides with a limiting slide rod 22. The outer wall of the limiting slide rod 22 is slidably installed with a slider 23. The bottom of the slider 23 is movably connected to the top of the pressing upright plate 133. The rear end of the recliner backrest 2 is fixedly installed with a push handle 24.

[0024] When in use, the mother's upper body rests comfortably on the backrest 2 of the recliner, her buttocks can sit on the top of the buttock support plate 3, and her lower limbs are placed on the leg rest plate 4, assuming a lying position for easy rest. Simultaneously, rotating the rotating handle 131 on the rear side of the movable base 1 rotates the adjusting threaded rod 13. This, combined with the threaded connection between the movable plate 132 and the adjusting threaded rod 13, moves the compression plate 133 forward, causing the slider 23 to slide against the outer wall of the limiting slide rod 22 within the slide groove 21. This lifts the recliner backrest 2, which is movably mounted on the front top of the movable base 1, allowing the mother to lie down comfortably. The angle between the chair backrest 2 and the movable base 1 is increased, making it easier for the mother to lean her upper body at different angles. At the same time, the push handle 24 can be raised as the angle of the chair backrest 2 increases. When pushing with the push handle 24, the height of the push handle 24 can be adjusted by adjusting the angle of the chair backrest 2, making it easy for mothers of different heights to hold. With the help of the self-locking casters 14 at the bottom of the movable base 1, it can assist the mother in walking. When walking rehabilitation is not needed, the four self-locking casters 14 can be locked with their own self-locking switches.

[0025] like Figure 3As shown, a sponge pad 31 is fixedly adhered to the top of the hip support plate 3, and L-shaped support frames 32 are fixedly installed on both the left and right sides of the hip support plate 3. A hand support rod 321 is fixedly installed on the top of the L-shaped support frame 32. Folding storage slots 42 are opened on both the left and right sides of the bottom of the leg placement plate 4. Support legs 421 are movably installed on the front of both the left and right sides of the inner wall of the two folding storage slots 42. Magnetic plates 422 are fixedly installed on the front side of the inner wall of the two folding storage slots 42. Magnetic plates 423 are fixedly installed on the rear side of the top of the inner wall of the two folding storage slots 42.

[0026] When the mobile base 1 is moved as a whole, in order to facilitate turning operations, the two support legs 421 can be folded into the folding storage slot 42 to release the attraction relationship with the magnetic plate 422 until they are attracted to the magnetic plate 423 in the folding storage slot 42, thus completing the folding and storage of the support legs 421. When it is necessary to lie down again, simply pull the support legs 421 out of the folding storage slot 42 and keep them in a vertical position so that their front sides are attracted and fixed to the magnetic plate 422. The leg placement board 4 can then be supported by the contact between the bottom of the support legs 421 and the ground, making it convenient for the mother to lie down. When the mother needs to get up, the hand support rod 321 at the top of the L-shaped support frame 32 can provide good support and make it easy to get up.

[0027] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the leg placement plate 4 is provided with a lifting mechanism 41 on both the left and right sides. Each of the two lifting mechanisms 41 includes an L-shaped support frame 411. The two L-shaped support frames 411 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the leg placement plate 4 at their horizontal opposite ends. A U-shaped placement plate 412 is fixedly installed on the top of the L-shaped support frame 411. A U-shaped sponge pad 413 is fixedly glued to the top of the U-shaped placement plate 412. Metal side plates 43 are fixedly installed on the rear of both the left and right sides of the leg placement plate 4. Circular magnetic blocks 322 are fixedly installed at the front ends of the two hand support rods 321. When the tops of the two metal side plates 43 are in a vertical state, they are attracted to the front of the two circular magnetic blocks 322 respectively.

[0028] When the mother lies down, if the caregiver or doctor needs to observe the condition of the perineal wound, the mother only needs to spread her legs and place them on the U-shaped placement plate 412 at the top of the two L-shaped support frames 411 for easy observation. The U-shaped sponge pad 413 at the top of the U-shaped placement plate 412 can improve leg comfort. By flipping the entire leg placement plate 4 upwards until it is in a vertical position, and using the mutual attraction between the metal side plate 43 and the circular magnet 322 at the front end of the hand support rod 321 for temporary fixation, the length of the entire recliner can be shortened, making it easier to turn around.

[0029] The working principle of this maternity recliner will be explained in detail below.

[0030] like Figures 1-5 As shown, during use, the mother's upper body can rest on the backrest 2 of the recliner, her buttocks can sit on the top of the buttock support plate 3, and her lower limbs can be placed on the leg rest plate 4, assuming a lying position for easy rest. At the same time, by rotating the rotating handle 131 on the rear side of the movable base 1, the adjusting threaded rod 13 can be rotated. With the threaded connection between the movable plate 132 and the adjusting threaded rod 13, the pressing upright plate 133 can be moved forward, causing the slider 23 to slide on the outer wall of the limiting slide rod 22 in the slide groove 21, thereby lifting the recliner backrest 2, which is movably installed on the front top of the movable base 1, so that the angle between the recliner backrest 2 and the movable base 1 is increased. The chair backrest 2 is raised to allow the mother to lean against it at different angles. The push handle 24 also rises as the angle of the backrest 2 increases. When using the push handle 24, its height can be adjusted by changing the angle of the backrest 2, making it easy for mothers of different heights to grip. Combined with the self-locking casters 14 at the bottom of the movable base 1, it assists the mother in walking. When walking rehabilitation is not needed, the four self-locking casters 14 can be locked using their self-locking switches. Furthermore, when moving the movable base 1 as a whole, turning can be easily achieved by using two... The support leg 421 folds into the folding storage slot 42, releasing its attraction to the first magnetic plate 422, until it attracts the second magnetic plate 423 within the folding storage slot 42, completing the folding and storage of the support leg 421. Then, the entire leg rest 4 can be flipped upwards until it is vertical, and temporarily secured using the mutual attraction between the metal side plate 43 and the circular magnet 322 at the front end of the handrail support rod 321. This shortens the overall length of the recliner, facilitating turning. To recline again, simply pull the support leg 421 out of the folding storage slot 42, keeping it vertical, so that its front side is in contact with the magnetic... The plates 422 are mutually attracted and fixed, allowing the leg support plate 4 to be supported by the contact between the bottom of the support leg 421 and the ground, making it convenient for the mother to lie down. When the mother needs to get up, the hand support bar 321 at the top of the L-shaped support frame 32 can provide good support and make it easy to get up. At the same time, when the mother is lying down, if the caregiver or doctor needs to observe the condition of the mother's perineal wound, the mother only needs to spread her legs and place them on the U-shaped placement plate 412 at the top of the two L-shaped support frames 411 for easy observation. The U-shaped sponge pad 413 at the top of the U-shaped placement plate 412 can improve the comfort of the legs.

[0031] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
