Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of protective cover technology, specifically a bed rail protective cover. Background Technology
[0002] In the daily medical environment of a hospital, the bed is an important space for patients to receive treatment and rest. However, due to the varying physical conditions of patients, some may be at risk of accidentally rolling off the bed and getting injured due to factors such as impaired consciousness, weakness, or limited mobility. To ensure patient safety, bed rail safety devices have been developed and are now widely used.
[0003] However, existing bed rail guards and protective covers have two main uses. First, they employ simple, fixed railings. While these provide some protection, they still pose a risk of injury to smaller, unconscious, or easily struggling patients who may squeeze through gaps or climb over the railings. Second, they use straps to secure protective fabrics or soft covers to the bed railings to fill gaps or increase height. However, this strapping method has several drawbacks. For example, the straps are prone to loosening and shifting, requiring frequent checks and re-tying by medical staff, increasing their workload. Furthermore, the process of untying and re-tying the straps during procedures such as comprehensive patient examinations is often cumbersome, time-consuming, and laborious. Multiple straps hanging around the bed not only affect the overall aesthetics and tidiness of the ward but can also cause entanglement during patient movement, creating additional inconvenience and even safety risks. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a bed rail guard cover that solves the problems of inconvenience in untying and retying the guard cover due to the existing method of fixing it with straps, and the problem of multiple straps hanging around the bed, affecting the overall aesthetics and tidiness of the ward.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A bed rail guardrail cover includes a cover body disposed on the outside of the bed rail, a movable shaft fixedly installed inside the cover body, the movable shaft being rotatably connected to the inside of the bed rail; it also includes a movable component for fixing and releasing the cover body from the bed rail; and a moving component for restricting the movable component connecting the bed rail and the cover body.
[0007] The movable components include: a fixing strip, which is fixedly installed on the surface of the bed railing; a fixing block is fixedly installed inside the fixing strip; a telescopic rod is fixedly installed inside the fixing block; a fixing spring is fixedly installed on the surface of the telescopic rod; a positioning block is fixedly installed on the inner side of the telescopic rod; the positioning block is slidably connected to the inside of the fixing block; and an insert rod is fixedly installed at the bottom of the cover, with an annular groove on the surface of the insert rod.
[0008] Preferably, an abutment block is fixedly installed on the surface of the insertion rod, an abutment plate is slidably connected to the surface of the insertion rod, a return spring is fixedly installed on the top of the abutment plate, and the return spring is fixedly installed on the surface of the insertion rod.
[0009] Preferably, a fixed shaft is fixedly installed on the surface of the movable shaft, a spiral spring is fixedly installed on the surface of the fixed shaft, and the spiral spring is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bed guardrail.
[0010] Preferably, the moving component includes: a limiting block, the limiting block being fixedly installed at the bottom of the cover, a slider being slidably connected inside the fixing strip, a control block being fixedly installed at the top of the slider, and a positioning shaft being fixedly installed on the inner side of the slider.
[0011] Preferably, a plug shaft is fixedly mounted on the surface of the positioning shaft, a limiting shaft is hinged to the surface of the plug shaft, one end of a torsion spring is fixedly mounted on the inner side of the limiting shaft, and the other end of the torsion spring is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the plug shaft.
[0012] Preferably, the cover body has a square groove inside, the fixing block has a hole on its surface, the fixing block has a T-shaped cross section, the positioning block has a rectangular cross section, the contact block has a semi-circular cross section, and the contact plate has an arc-shaped surface.
[0013] Preferably, the surface of the fixing strip is provided with a groove, the interior of the fixing strip is provided with a recess, and the surface of the limiting block is provided with a second hole.
[0014] By employing the above technical solution, this utility model provides a bed rail protective cover. It possesses at least the following beneficial effects:
[0015] (1) Through the setting of the movable components, the insertion shaft slides and drives the abutment block to abut against the surface of the positioning block, thereby moving the positioning block. The positioning block is reset by the fixing spring on the surface of the telescopic rod, so that the positioning block is inserted into the surface of the insertion rod for fixation. When it is necessary to release the fixation, the cover is pulled down again. At this time, the insertion rod abuts against the positioning block again through the surface abutment plate, so that the abutment block can move closer to the inner wall of the fixing block. When the positioning block moves, it will release the restriction on the insertion rod, preventing the cover from being fixed to the bed railing by the strap or other inconvenient methods, thus improving the convenience and aesthetics of the cover.
[0016] (2) By setting up a moving component, the present invention allows the insertion shaft on the inner side of the slider to pass through the limiting block through the manual operation control block, so that the limiting shaft on the insertion shaft surface is locked inside the limiting block for fixation. The control block slides inside the fixing strip, so that the operation can only be performed inside the patient's bed. This prevents the cover from being easily changed or opened by accidental operation, avoiding the situation where the cover is accidentally unlocked or moved due to accidental operation by others, which would affect the normal functioning of the bed protection function, thus enhancing the reliability of protection and improving the patient's privacy.

Detailed Implementation
[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] Example 1
[0028] A type of bed rail protective cover, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, it includes a cover 2 set outside the bed guardrail 1, and a movable shaft 4 is fixedly installed inside the cover 2. The movable shaft 4 is rotatably connected to the inside of the bed guardrail 1.
[0029] It also includes a movable component 3, used to fix and release the cover 2 from the bed railing 1;
[0030] Movable component 5 is used to restrict the movable component 3 that connects the bed railing 1 and the cover 2;
[0031] First, the active component 3 includes: a fixing strip 31, which is fixedly installed on the surface of the bed rail 1; a fixing block 32 is fixedly installed inside the fixing strip 31; a telescopic rod 33 is fixedly installed inside the fixing block 32; a fixing spring 34 is fixedly installed on the surface of the telescopic rod 33; a positioning block 35 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the telescopic rod 33; the positioning block 35 is slidably connected to the inside of the fixing block 32; and an insert rod 36 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the cover 2. An annular groove 360 is opened on the surface of the insert rod 36, which can achieve the effect of resetting after the telescopic rod 33 is retracted through the fixing spring 34 set on the surface of the telescopic rod 33.
[0032] Secondly, a contact block 37 is fixedly installed on the surface of the insertion rod 36, and a contact plate 38 is slidably connected to the surface of the insertion rod 36. A return spring 39 is fixedly installed on the top of the contact plate 38. The return spring 39 is fixedly installed on the surface of the insertion rod 36. The return spring 39 on the top of the contact plate 38 can achieve the effect of resetting after the contact plate 38 has slid completely.
[0033] Furthermore, a fixed shaft 310 is fixedly installed on the surface of the movable shaft 4, and a spiral spring 311 is fixedly installed on the surface of the fixed shaft 310. The spiral spring 311 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bed guardrail 1. The cover 2 can be easily opened by the spiral spring 311 installed on the surface of the fixed shaft 310.
[0034] In this embodiment, through the setting of the movable component 3, the insertion shaft 55 slides and drives the abutment block 37 to abut against the surface of the positioning block 35, thereby moving the positioning block 35. The positioning block 35 is reset by the fixing spring 34 on the surface of the telescopic rod 33, so that the positioning block 35 is inserted into the surface of the insertion rod 36 for fixation. When it is necessary to release the fixation, the cover 2 is pulled down again. At this time, the insertion rod 36 abuts against the positioning block 35 again through the surface abutment plate 38, so that the positioning block 35 can move closer to the inner wall of the fixing block 32. When the positioning block 35 moves, it will release the restriction on the insertion rod 36, preventing the cover 2 from being fixed to the bed railing 1 by the strap or other inconvenient means, thus improving the convenience and aesthetics of the cover 2.
[0035] Example 2
[0036] like Figures 6-7 As shown, the moving component 5 includes: a limiting block 51, which is fixedly installed at the bottom of the cover 2; a slider 52 is slidably connected inside the fixing strip 31; a control block 53 is fixedly installed on the top of the slider 52; and a positioning shaft 54 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the slider 52.
[0037] Furthermore, a plug shaft 55 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the positioning shaft 54, and a limiting shaft 56 is hinged to the surface of the plug shaft 55. One end of a torsion spring 57 is fixedly mounted on the inner side of the limiting shaft 56, and the other end of the torsion spring 57 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the plug shaft 55. The torsion spring 57 set on the inner side of the limiting shaft 56 can achieve the effect of resetting after the limiting shaft 56 has been abutted.
[0038] Finally, a square groove 20 is provided inside the cover 2, which allows the patient to easily pull the cover 2 downwards. A hole 320 is provided on the surface of the fixing block 32, through which the insertion rod 36 can be inserted. The cross-section of the fixing block 32 is T-shaped, allowing the positioning block 35 to slide within it. The cross-section of the positioning block 35 is rectangular, which enhances the contact effect between the positioning block 35 and the contact plate 38. The cross-section of the contact block 37 is semi-circular. The surface of the 38 is arc-shaped, which can enhance the contact effect of the contact block 37 through the semi-circular contact block 37 and the contact plate 38 with the arc-shaped cross surface. The surface of the fixing strip 31 has a groove 3100, which can be used to allow the control block 53 to slide inside the fixing strip 31. The inside of the fixing strip 31 has a groove 3101, which can be used to allow the positioning shaft 54 and the insertion shaft 55 to pass through the inside of the fixing strip 31. The surface of the limiting block 51 has a hole 510, which can be used to position the limiting shaft 56.
[0039] In this embodiment, by setting the moving component 5, the insertion shaft 55 on the surface of the positioning shaft 54 on the inner side of the slider 52 is driven by the manual operation control block 53 to pass through the limiting block 51, so that the limiting shaft 56 on the surface of the insertion shaft 55 is engaged with the inner side of the limiting block 51 for fixation. The control block 53 slides on the inner side of the fixing strip 31, so that the operation can only be performed by the patient inside the bed. This prevents the cover 2 from being easily changed or opened by accidental operation, avoiding the situation where the cover 2 is accidentally unlocked or moved due to accidental operation by others, thereby affecting the normal functioning of the bed protection function, enhancing the reliability of protection and improving the patient's privacy.
[0040] In use, this utility model provides a bed rail protective cover. The patient lies on the bed, and the cover 2 is manually inserted into the square slot 20 and pulled downwards. This causes the cover 2 to swing downwards on the outside of the bed rail 1 via the movable shaft 4, thus protecting the bed. As the cover 2 swings downwards, it also causes the insertion shaft 55 to swing downwards into the fixed block 32. The semi-circular contact block 37 on the surface of the insertion shaft 55 abuts against the rectangular positioning block 35 inside the fixed block 32. At the shaped cut surface, the positioning block 35 moves closer to the inner wall of the fixing block 32, causing the telescopic rod 33 to retract. When the contact block 37 moves to the top of the positioning block 35, the telescopic rod 33 will return to its original position under the action of the fixing spring 34. This resets the telescopic rod 33 and, similarly, resets the positioning block 35, allowing it to be fixed in the annular groove 360 on the surface of the insertion rod 36. When it is necessary to release the fixation, the cover 2 can be pulled downwards again. The insertion rod 36 will contact the rectangular section of the positioning block 35 through the arc-shaped cross-section of the contact plate 38. Due to the action of the return spring 39, the contact plate 38 will slide on the surface of the insertion rod 36. When the return spring 39 is compressed to its maximum, the contact plate 38 will no longer slide on the surface of the insertion rod 36, allowing the positioning block 35 to move again closer to the inner wall of the fixing block 32. When the positioning block 35 moves, it will release the restriction on the insertion rod 36. After the restriction is released, the cover 2 can be pushed upward. The bottom end of the contact plate 38 on the surface of the insertion rod 36 abuts against the positioning block 35. Similarly, the positioning block 35 pushes the contact plate 38 to slide on the surface of the insertion rod 36 towards the bottom end of the contact block 37. When the return spring 39 is compressed to its tightest position again, it can resist the sliding of the positioning block 35, thereby pulling the insertion rod 36 out of the fixing block 32 and releasing the fixing effect. This prevents the cover 2 from being fixed to the bed railing 1 by straps or other inconvenient means, improving the convenience and aesthetics of the cover 2.
[0041] When the cover 2 slides downwards, it also causes the limiting block 51 to slide downwards. When the limiting block 51 slides downwards, it will insert into the inside of the fixing strip 31. At this time, by manually operating the control block 53, the insertion shaft 55 on the surface of the positioning shaft 54 inside the slider 52 will pass through the limiting block 51. First, the hole 510 on the surface of the limiting block 51 will abut against the limiting shaft 56 on the surface of the insertion shaft 55, causing the limiting shaft 56 to move closer to the surface of the insertion shaft 55. After the insertion shaft 55 passes through the limiting block 51, the limiting shaft 56 will be reset under the action of the spiral spring 311, so that the limiting shaft 56 is locked inside the limiting block 51 for fixation, while the control block 53 slides inside the fixing strip 31. Therefore, it can only be realized when the patient... The operation is performed inside the bed frame, preventing the cover 2 from being easily misoperated and changed position or opened. This prevents other unrelated personnel in the ward from interfering with the fixing and unlocking of the cover 2 from the outside of the bed. It avoids the situation where the cover 2 is accidentally unlocked or moved due to the misoperation of others, which would affect the normal functioning of the bed's protective function, thus enhancing the reliability of the protection and improving the patient's privacy. When it is necessary to release the position, the patient only needs to operate the control block 53 in the opposite direction to move the limiting shaft 56 out of the limiting block 51. When the limiting shaft 56 moves in the opposite direction, the limiting block 51 will resist the limiting shaft 56, thereby causing the limiting shaft 56 to swing inward on the surface of the insert shaft 55, thus releasing the restriction.
