Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nursing vehicle technology, specifically to a basic nursing vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Basic nursing care constitutes a significant portion of nursing work, typically including dressing changes and personal hygiene. This is especially important for critically ill patients, who require twice-daily bathing in the morning and evening. However, nursing staff must retrieve clothing and bedding from a fixed storage location each time, a process that is time-consuming and severely impacts nursing efficiency. On the other hand, while placing spare clothing and bedding directly beside the patient's bed saves time, it also makes the clean clothing highly susceptible to contamination due to environmental factors. Furthermore, the placement of basins during bathing procedures lacks standardization. The common practice is to place basins haphazardly on nearby stools or even on the patient's bedside table. This not only hinders nursing procedures but also easily leads to water splashing onto the surrounding environment, resulting in water stains throughout the ward. This affects ward cleanliness and causes numerous inconveniences for subsequent nursing procedures.

[0003] Furthermore, there are also problems with the management of supplies for the daily care of critically ill patients, such as nail trimming, hair shaving, and hair combing. For example, nursing staff often have to take out each item individually as needed, and then clean and disinfect each item after use. This cumbersome and complicated process not only consumes a lot of the nursing staff's energy but also hinders the efficient and orderly conduct of nursing work. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome at least one of the defects of the prior art and provide a basic nursing vehicle.

[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A basic nursing vehicle includes:

[0007] The vehicle body has a storage space;

[0008] A pair of first openings are respectively provided on both sides of the vehicle body. The pair of first openings are connected to the storage space. A pair of upright plates are provided on both sides of the first openings. The pair of upright plates are rotatably connected to the side walls of the first openings respectively.

[0009] A pair of folding doors are respectively provided on both sides of the vehicle body. The upper end of the folding door is folded and connected to the upper end wall of the first opening. A pair of limiting grooves are provided on the side of the folding door near the vehicle body. When the pair of upright plates rotate to be directly below the pair of limiting grooves, the pair of upright plates engage with the pair of limiting grooves, so that the folding door serves as a load-bearing platform.

[0010] Furthermore, the storage space is divided into four compartments in a grid shape by a partition installed inside the storage space; the pair of first openings are located on the pair of compartments near the upper surface of the vehicle body.

[0011] Furthermore, the vehicle body is also provided with a second opening, which is opened on the four-compartment space, and the four-compartment space is opened and closed by a double door provided on the second opening.

[0012] Furthermore, the vehicle body is also equipped with a handle, through which the nursing vehicle is moved.

[0013] Furthermore, a soiled clothing placement assembly is provided on the vehicle body near the handle side. The soiled clothing placement assembly includes a placement rack on the side of the vehicle body and a soiled clothing placement basket located within the placement rack.

[0014] Furthermore, the contact portion between the soiled clothing storage basket and the storage rack is provided with Velcro, which allows the two to be detachably connected as one unit.

[0015] Furthermore, the storage space is equipped with a disinfection component, which includes multiple disinfection lamps installed in the storage space and connected to a control panel installed on the handle.

[0016] Furthermore, the upright plate is a right-angled triangular upright plate, wherein one right-angled side is hinged to the inner wall of the first opening, and the other right-angled side abuts against the folding door.

[0017] Furthermore, the upper surface of the vehicle body has an arc-shaped transition around its perimeter.

[0018] Furthermore, multiple omnidirectional wheels are equidistantly installed at the bottom of the vehicle body.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0020] (1) This utility model provides a basic nursing cart. When the folding doors on both sides of the cart are opened and the upright plate is rotated to engage directly below the limiting groove, it can serve as a support platform, increasing the operating space and area for placing items, making it flexible and convenient to use. Specifically, a washbasin can be placed on the support platform, effectively avoiding the current situation where, during the bathing operation, the washbasin is randomly placed on a nearby stool or even on the patient's bedside table, causing water to splash onto the surrounding environment and resulting in water stains throughout the ward.

[0021] (2) This utility model provides a basic nursing cart. The storage space of the nursing cart is divided into four compartments in a grid shape by partitions, which facilitates the classification and storage of different nursing supplies, and improves the orderliness of the storage and the convenience of retrieval. In addition, a pair of first openings are opened on the sub-spaces near the upper surface of the cart body, which makes it convenient to take out frequently used items from the side of the sub-spaces.

[0022] (3) This utility model provides a basic nursing cart. In addition to the first opening, the nursing cart is also equipped with a second opening and can be opened and closed by a double door. Items can be taken out from different directions and openings according to actual needs, making the operation more flexible. Attached Figure Description
