Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of ultrasound examination bed technology. Specifically, this utility model relates to an ultrasound examination bed that assists in patient examination and provides fixed support. Background Technology
[0002] Existing medical examination beds, in order to facilitate doctors' practical operations on patients, often require patients to be in a lying or sitting position for examination. Prolonged sitting not only easily leads to patient fatigue, but also causes the patient's posture to tremble and change, which is detrimental to the doctor's examination. To better assist doctors in their examinations and reduce patient fatigue during the process, existing hospitals often use tiltable and liftable medical examination beds. These beds provide back support in sitting or tilted positions to achieve the aforementioned purpose and reduce patient fatigue. However, during the process of changing from a lying to a sitting position, the patient's upper body tilts with the bed board, causing a change in the center of gravity. This can easily lead to the patient sliding down the examination bed. Sliding down not only hinders the doctor's examination but also increases the time spent adjusting the posture.
[0003] Chinese Patent (Announcement No.: CN213099072U) discloses a medical examination bed that can, to some extent, solve the technical problem of medical examination beds lacking infusion stand equipment, making it inconvenient for patients to hang IV drips. The bed board is horizontally mounted on a bed frame, with one end of the board protruding from the bed frame along its length and having a notch. A positioning seat is located at the end of the bed frame away from the notch, and a positioning groove is formed on the positioning seat. One end of the IV rod has a positioning element that can be inserted into the positioning groove, allowing the IV rod to be detachably connected to the bed frame. However, when the patient's sitting posture cannot be adjusted, the patient is prone to sliding down the examination bed, which is not only detrimental to the doctor's examination. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model is designed to solve the above-mentioned problems. Its purpose is to provide an ultrasound examination bed that can assist patients in ultrasound examinations and can adjust the patient's sitting posture to facilitate the doctor's examination. To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an ultrasound examination bed that assists patients in examinations and provides fixed support, including a base plate, a support mechanism provided on the base plate, and a rotating mechanism provided on the support.
[0005] The support mechanism includes a first support plate, a second support plate, and a bed board. The first support plate is located at one end of the base plate, and the second support plate is located at the other end of the base plate. The first support plate and the second support plate are connected to the bed board, and the bed board is provided with a foot support mechanism.
[0006] The bed board is composed of a first plate and a second plate, with a pivot between the first plate and the second plate. The second plate is connected to the pivot, and the second support plate is connected to the support plate. The two ends of the support plate abut against the first plate and the second plate, respectively. The second plate is connected to a rotating mechanism.
[0007] The rotating mechanism includes a first fixed plate and a second connecting plate. The first fixed plate is disposed on the base plate. A first motor is connected to one side of the first fixed plate. The first motor is connected to a threaded rod. The other end of the threaded rod is connected to a second fixed plate. One end of the second fixed plate is connected to the base plate. A first connecting plate is connected to the threaded rod. A right-angle plate is disposed on the first connecting plate. The second connecting plate is disposed on both sides of a second flat plate. A first fixed rod is connected to the second flat plate. The first fixed rod abuts against the hypotenuse of the right-angle plate.
[0008] The foot support mechanism includes a third fixed plate, which is located at one end near the first support plate. The third fixed plate is connected to the base plate and is connected to a telescopic rod. The telescopic rod is connected to a foot support plate, which is sleeved on the first flat plate.
[0009] One end of the right-angle plate is connected to a second fixing rod, and the second fixing rod is connected to a push block. A pressure sensor is provided on one side of the first plate. A first roller is provided on one end of the second plate, and a second roller is provided on one end of the first plate. A second motor is provided on one end of the first roller, and the second motor is connected to the pressure sensor via a PLC controller.
[0010] A third fixing rod is provided between the first fixing plate and the second fixing plate, and the first connecting plate is sleeved on the third fixing rod.
[0011] The telescopic rod is composed of a first tube, a second tube, and a third tube nested together.
[0012] The foot support plate has a square-shaped structure.
[0013] At least one pressure sensor is provided.
[0014] The technical advantages of this invention are as follows: The rotation of the first motor drives the threaded rod to rotate clockwise, thereby moving the first connecting plate forward. The right-angle plate pushes the first fixed rod, which in turn pushes the second plate, causing it to rotate and thus adjusting the patient's sitting posture. During this process, the foot support plate effectively supports the patient's feet, preventing the patient from slipping on the examination bed during the transition from a horizontal to an inclined position. This facilitates the doctor's examination and saves time. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in order to help those skilled in the art to have a more complete, accurate and in-depth understanding of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, and to facilitate its implementation.
[0021] like Figures 1-3 As shown, an ultrasound examination bed for assisting patient examination and providing stable support includes a base plate 1, a support mechanism 2 mounted on the base plate 1, and a rotating mechanism 3 mounted on the support. The base plate 1 serves as the foundation of the entire examination bed, providing stable support. The support mechanism 2 is used to support the patient lying flat, and the rotating mechanism 3 is responsible for adjusting the patient's sitting posture.
[0022] The support mechanism 2 includes a first support plate 201, a second support plate 202, and a bed board 203. The first support plate 201 is located at one end of the base plate 1, and the second support plate 202 is located at the other end of the base plate 1. The first support plate 201 and the second support plate 202 connect to the bed board 203, and a foot support mechanism 4 is provided on the bed board 203. The first support plate 201 and the second support plate 202 are located at both ends of the base plate 1 and are used to support and fix the bed board 203, which serves as the surface for the patient to lie on. The foot support mechanism 4 is used to support the patient's feet, providing a comfortable examination experience.
[0023] The bed board 203 consists of a first flat plate 204 and a second flat plate 205. A pivot 206 is provided between the first flat plate 204 and the second flat plate 205. The second flat plate 205 is connected to the pivot 206. A second support plate 202 is connected to a support plate 207. Both ends of the support plate 207 are connected to the first flat plate 204 and the second flat plate 205, respectively. A rotating mechanism 3 is connected to the second flat plate 205. The bed board 203, consisting of the first flat plate 204 and the second flat plate 205, serves as the surface for the patient to lie on. The second flat plate 205 can rotate around the pivot 206 to adjust the patient's sitting posture.
[0024] The rotating mechanism 3 includes a first fixed plate 301 and a second connecting plate 302. The first fixed plate 301 is disposed on the base plate 1. A first motor 303 is connected to one side of the first fixed plate 301. The first motor 303 is connected to a threaded rod 304. The other end of the threaded rod 304 is connected to a second fixed plate 305. One end of the second fixed plate 305 is connected to the base plate 1. A first connecting plate 306 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 304. A right-angle plate 307 is disposed on the first connecting plate 306. The second connecting plate 302 is disposed on both sides of a second flat plate 205. A first fixed rod 308 is connected to the second flat plate 205. The first fixed rod 308 abuts against the hypotenuse of the right-angle plate 307. When the patient is not in bed, the first fixing plate 301 fixes the first motor 303. The rotation of the first motor 303 drives the threaded rod 304 to rotate clockwise, thereby driving the first connecting plate 306 forward. The right-angle plate 307 pushes the first fixing rod 308, and the first fixing rod 308 simultaneously pushes the second plate 205 to rotate, thereby adjusting the patient's sitting posture.
[0025] The foot support mechanism 4 includes a third fixing plate 401, which is located at one end near the first support plate 201. The third fixing plate 401 is connected to the base plate 1 and is connected to a telescopic rod 403. The telescopic rod 403 is connected to a foot support plate 402, which is fitted onto the first flat plate 204. The foot support plate 402 supports the patient's feet, providing a comfortable examination experience. The third fixing plate 401 provides support for the telescopic rod 403 and the foot support plate 402.
[0026] A right-angle plate 307 is connected to a second fixing rod 309 at one end, and a push block 310 is connected to the second fixing rod 309. A pressure sensor 5 is provided on one side of the first plate 204. A first roller 311 is provided at one end of the second plate 205. A second roller 312 is provided at one end of the first plate 204. A second motor 313 is provided at one end of the first roller 311. The second motor 313 is connected to the pressure sensor 5 and a PLC controller. After the patient finishes their examination and gets out of bed, the first motor 303 rotates, causing the threaded rod 304 to rotate counterclockwise, which in turn causes the first connecting plate 306 to move backward. The right-angle plate 307 pushes the second fixing rod 309, which in turn causes the push block 310 to move backward. Due to the action of the telescopic rod 403, the foot support plate 402 can move backward. The push block 310 pushes the foot support plate 402 to move backward. After the foot support plate 402 moves backward a certain distance, it will contact the pressure sensor 5. The pressure sensor 5 transmits a signal to the PLC controller. The PLC controller sends a control command to the second motor 313, which drives the first roller 311 to rotate, thereby moving the disposable mattress on the bed board 203 so that it can be replaced automatically.
[0027] A third fixing rod 314 is provided between the first fixing plate 301 and the second fixing plate 305, and the first connecting plate 306 is sleeved on the third fixing rod 314. The third fixing rod 314 can assist the movement of the first connecting plate 306 to ensure that no positional displacement occurs.
[0028] The telescopic rod 403 is formed by nesting a first tube 404, a second tube 405, and a third tube 406. This nesting allows the telescopic rod 403 to extend or retract.
[0029] The foot support plate 402 has a U-shaped structure, which makes it easier to use together with the bed board 203.
[0030] At least one pressure sensor 5 should be provided. Setting up multiple pressure sensors 5 can make signal transmission faster and more sensitive.
[0031] The role and effect of the embodiments
[0032] When the patient is not in bed, the first motor 303 rotates, causing the threaded rod 304 to rotate counterclockwise, which in turn causes the first connecting plate 306 to move backward. The right-angle plate 307 pushes the second fixing rod 309, which in turn causes the push block 310 to move backward. Due to the action of the telescopic rod 403, the foot support plate 402 can move backward. The push block 310 pushes the foot support plate 402 backward, allowing the patient to lie flat without being affected by the foot support plate 402.
[0033] After the patient sits on the bed, the first motor 303 rotates, driving the threaded rod 304 to rotate clockwise, which in turn drives the first connecting plate 306 forward. The right-angle plate 307 pushes the first fixing rod 308, which in turn pushes the second plate 205 to rotate, adjusting the patient's sitting posture. During this process, the foot support plate 402 can support the patient's feet, effectively preventing the patient from sliding down the examination bed when the second plate 205 changes from horizontal to inclined. Sliding down not only makes the doctor's examination more difficult, but also increases the time wasted in adjusting the posture.
[0034] After the patient finishes their examination and gets off the bed, the first motor 303 rotates, driving the threaded rod 304 to rotate counterclockwise. This causes the first connecting plate 306 to retract, and the right-angle plate 307 pushes the second fixing rod 309. The second fixing rod 309 then moves the push block 310 backward. Due to the action of the telescopic rod 403, the foot support plate 402 can move backward. The push block 310 pushes the foot support plate 402 backward. After moving a certain distance, the foot support plate 402 contacts the pressure sensor 5. The pressure sensor 5 transmits a signal to the PLC controller, which sends a control command to the second motor 313, controlling the second motor 313 to rotate the first roller 311. This causes the disposable mattress on the bed board 203 to move, thus automatically changing it. The entire process is streamlined and requires no manual operation, avoiding the problem of existing examination beds where doctors need to manually change the disposable mattress, which cannot be automated.
[0035] The present invention has been described above by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvements made using the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention; or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution to other situations without modification, are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
