[0002] Bedside instrument shelves are common equipment in medical settings, typically used in hospital wards, especially intensive care units, general wards, or emergency rooms. Their main function is to provide a convenient location for placing various medical instruments, equipment, medications, and nursing supplies next to the bed.
[0003] Traditional bedside shelves require a large space when used to store medical instruments. Furthermore, different instruments often require different placement heights for easy access by medical staff. Existing shelves often have a fixed height for supporting the instruments, making it difficult for medical staff to use them at a suitable height. Additionally, medical instruments often require pre-treatment skin cleaning or medication administration, and the lack of storage for medical waste can affect the hygiene of the patient when using the instruments.
[0004] Therefore, in response to the problems of existing bedside storage racks taking up a large area and being inconvenient to use, a bedside instrument storage rack was developed. By adding an electric lifting structure, a limiting auxiliary structure, and a multi-layer isolation storage structure to the bedside storage rack, the space required for use can be greatly reduced, medical instruments can be used by medical staff at an appropriate height, and waste generated by patients during treatment can be stored.

The upper four corner edges of the movable base 1 are fixedly connected to the mounting cylinder 8, and the electric telescopic rod 2 is fixedly connected inside the mounting cylinder 8. The conveying end of the electric telescopic rod 2 is installed at the lower four corner edges of the lifting base 3. The upper edge of the lifting base 3 is fixedly connected to the top railing 13, and a U-shaped frame 7 is fixedly connected to the inclined angle of the outer wall of the top railing 13. A connecting frame 17 is snapped onto the U-shaped frame 7, and a trash can 5 is installed on the connecting frame 17. The upper edge of the movable base 1 is fixedly connected to the bottom railing 10, and the lower end of the lifting base 3 has a through hole 14, the inner wall of which is in contact with the outer wall of the bottom railing 10.
[0057] The electric telescopic rod 2 can push the lifting base 3 to a suitable height or lower it to the top of the moving base 1 to adjust the medical instruments on the lifting base 3 to a suitable height, or retract them when not in use, so as not to affect the use of the bedside space. The trash can 5 can be used to collect the waste generated by the patient during treatment. The bottom railing 10 and the top railing 13 can respectively limit the medicines or instruments placed on the moving base 1 and the lifting base 3 to prevent them from falling during movement or use.
[0058] Please see Figures 3-4 In this embodiment, the four corners of the lower end of the movable base 1 are fixed with movable wheels 6. The upper center of the movable base 1 is provided with a first storage groove 9. In use, the first storage groove 9 can limit and support the bottom of the medicine or instrument placed therein to prevent it from tipping over during movement. The upper center of the lifting base 3 is provided with a second storage groove 11. The front end of the lifting base 3 is provided with a cabinet groove 12. In use, the second storage groove 11 can limit and support the bottom of the medicine or instrument placed therein, thereby assisting its stability when placed in the second storage groove 11. A storage cabinet 4 is provided in the cabinet groove 12. The front end of the storage cabinet 4 is fixed with a handle 15. In use, the storage cabinet 4 can store the medical supplies commonly used by patients.
