Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of elderly disability care technology, and in particular to a care device for preventing disability in bedridden elderly people. Background Technology
[0002] Elderly people aged 60 and above in China who require assistance or rely entirely on others for daily activities such as eating, bathing, dressing, toileting, urination and defecation control, and indoor activities due to old age, illness, or disability are classified as having "mild disability" according to international standards. This is defined by being unable to perform one or two of the six activities (eating, dressing, getting in and out of bed, toileting, indoor movement, and bathing); "moderate disability" by being unable to perform three or four; and "severe disability" by being unable to perform five or six. (This information is based on data from 2020 regarding elderly people aged 60 and above in my country.) The population will increase to 255 million, accounting for 17.8% of the total population, of which 46 million will be disabled elderly, accounting for 18.3% of the total elderly population. Disability refers to physical or mental damage caused by accidental injury or disease, resulting in the loss of the ability to live or socialize. Due to old age, illness or disability, daily life activities such as eating, bathing, dressing, toileting, controlling urination and defecation, and indoor activities must be completed with the assistance of others or completely dependent on the assistance of others. This requires the use of nursing devices to prevent disability in bedridden elderly.
[0003] An existing patent (publication number: CN222033547U) discloses a nursing device for preventing disability in bedridden elderly people, including a support frame. Guide rods are symmetrically installed inside the support frame, and a corrugated tube is fitted onto the end face of each guide rod. A buffer frame is fixedly connected to the end face of the corrugated tube. By holding the two grip slots B of the support frame with both hands and swinging both arms left and right simultaneously, a training block slides along the guide rod under the action of thrust. When the damping ring of the training block is in contact with the end face of the buffer frame of the corrugated tube, it has a good cushioning effect. As the user swings the support frame left and right, the training block moves horizontally along the guide rod, effectively exercising the user's hands. Alternatively, the user can hold the two grip slots A of the support frame with both hands and swing the support frame up and down, causing the training block to move up and down along the guide rod. This provides diverse exercise methods and good training effects. However, this technical solution still has shortcomings, specifically as follows:
[0004] The aforementioned device exercises the patient's hands by swinging the support frame up and down or left and right. However, the muscle groups used in this swinging motion are relatively small, resulting in poor exercise effectiveness for the patient. Therefore, we propose a nursing device to prevent disability in bedridden elderly individuals and address the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0031] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 The present invention will be described in further detail below.
[0032] Example 1, refer to Figure 1-3 In this embodiment, to address the problem that existing methods of exercising a patient's hand by swinging a support frame up and down or left and right involve relatively small muscle groups, resulting in poor exercise effectiveness, this utility model discloses a nursing device for preventing disability in bedridden elderly individuals.
[0033] The device includes a care frame 1, which has two support rods 2 fixedly installed inside. A movable frame 3 is movably sleeved on the side of the two support rods 2. Two movable grooves 6 are opened on the rear side of the movable frame 3. A tension member 7 is slidably installed inside the movable grooves 6.
[0034] The tensioning component 7 includes four movable plates 701, which are slidably disposed inside the movable groove 6. A tension spring 702 is fixedly disposed on the top of the movable plate 701, and one end of the tension spring 702 is fixedly engaged with the side of the inner wall of the movable groove 6. A second compression spring 703 is fixedly disposed on the bottom of the movable plate 701, and one end of the second compression spring 703 is fixedly engaged with the inside of the movable groove 6. When the patient pulls the handle 704 to move the movable plate 701, it can cause the second compression spring 703 to squeeze and stretch the tension spring 702, so that the patient's arm muscles can be used for exercise.
[0035] The shape of the movable plate 701 and the inside of the movable groove 6 are both T-shaped. A handle 704 is fixedly installed on the side of the movable plate 701. By pulling the two handles 704 as a group, the patient can exercise the patient's arm and grip strength.
[0036] The specific working principle is as follows: The patient places both thumbs on the upper side of the two lower handles 704 and the other four fingers of both hands on the upper side of the two upper handles 704. Then, the patient uses the forearm muscles and palms to squeeze the two handles 704 together towards the middle, which stretches the tension spring 702 and compresses the second compression spring 703, thereby exercising the patient's palms and forearm muscles, resulting in a good exercise effect for the patient.
[0037] Example 2, refer to Figure 1-3 Based on the same concept as in Embodiment 1 above, this nursing device for preventing disability in bedridden elderly also includes:
[0038] The nursing frame 1 has two support rods 2 fixedly installed inside. The sides of the two support rods 2 are movably sleeved with a movable frame 3. The front of the movable frame 3 is fixedly equipped with a handle 4. The left and right sides of the support rods 2 are fixedly equipped with first compression springs 5.
