Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a three-step prone positioning mat for improving breathing in premature infants. Background Technology

[0002] Premature infants often face various respiratory problems because their lungs are not fully developed at birth. Due to incomplete alveolar development and insufficient surfactant, premature infants are prone to respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), apnea, and shortness of breath. The lungs cannot expand effectively, leading to restricted gas exchange and insufficient oxygen supply. Some premature infants may also develop persistent pulmonary hypertension and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Therefore, a three-step prone positioning mat is needed to improve the breathing of premature infants.

[0003] The three-step prone positioning mat is a special mat used to improve the breathing of premature infants. It is designed with three different height steps to effectively help adjust the infant's position, promote lung expansion and airway patency. In the current technology, the air mat is designed into a stepped shape and then used directly on premature infants. This method lacks the ability to adjust the air mat, which makes the prone positioning mat unsuitable for infants at different stages, thus affecting the use of the prone positioning mat. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a three-step prone positioning mat to improve the breathing of premature infants. It aims to address the problem that the three-step prone positioning mat lacks adjustment during use and is not suitable for infants at different stages.

[0022] 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.

[0023] Reference Figures 1-3 This utility model provides one embodiment: a three-step prone positioning mat for improving breathing in premature infants, comprising a base mat 1, a stepped mat 2 on the upper surface of the base mat 1, a face air cushion 3 on the upper surface of the stepped mat 2, a stepped mat 4 on the lower surface of the stepped mat 2, a stepped mat 3 5 on the lower surface of the stepped mat 4, a hollow block 7 slidably connected to the inner wall of the stepped mat 2, a sliding rod 8 slidably connected inside the hollow block 7, a U-shaped frame 16 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding rod 8, and an inclined block 9 slidably connected to the outer wall of the U-shaped frame 16. A trapezoidal block 10 is fixedly connected to the rear outer wall of the inclined block 9. A fixed seat 11 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the trapezoidal block 10. A spring 12 is fixedly connected to the left outer wall of the trapezoidal block 10. The left outer wall of the spring 12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed seat 11. An auxiliary component is provided on the left outer wall of the trapezoidal block 10. The auxiliary component is used to assist the sliding of the trapezoidal block 10. The auxiliary component includes a telescopic rod 13. The right outer wall of the telescopic rod 13 is fixedly connected to the left outer wall of the trapezoidal block 10. The left outer wall of the telescopic rod 13 is fixedly connected to the right outer wall of the fixed seat 11.

[0024] Specifically, the face cushion 3 is designed with a hollow center to support the baby's face without affecting their breathing. The base pad 1 fixes the hollow block 7. The interior of the hollow block 7 restricts the sliding of the slide rod 8. The U-shaped frame 16 moves inside the hollow block 7, limiting the sliding range of the slide rod 8. Pushing the slide rod 8 drives the U-shaped frame 16. Under the action of the inclined surface of the U-shaped frame 16, the inclined block 9 moves to the left. The spring 12 limits the sliding range of the trapezoidal block 10. The telescopic rod 13 prevents the spring 12 from deforming up and down, thus assisting the sliding of the trapezoidal block 10.

[0025] Reference Figure 3 The outer wall of the inclined block 9 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixed seat 11, the middle outer wall of the trapezoidal block 10 is slidably connected to the interior of the hollow block 7, the right outer wall of the trapezoidal block 10 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the step pad 2, and the outer wall of the fixed seat 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow block 7.

[0026] Specifically, the inner wall of the fixed seat 11 supports the sliding of the trapezoidal block 10, the interior of the hollow block 7 restricts the sliding of the trapezoidal block 10, and the sliding of the trapezoidal block 10 limits or releases the step pad 2.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 The right outer walls of both step pad 1 2 and step pad 2 4 are arc-shaped, and the upper surface of step pad 3 5 is provided with a limiting pad 6, which is arc-shaped.

[0028] Specifically, step mat 1 (2), step mat 2 (4), and step mat 3 (5) are all made of memory foam with supportive properties to provide comfort and support for the baby. The rightmost edges of step mat 1 (2) and step mat 2 (4) are curved to provide a more natural and flexible position, reducing restrictions on the baby's movement. The positioning mat 6 restricts the movement of the baby's lower body to ensure that the premature baby maintains the correct position, thereby improving respiratory function and promoting lung development. The upper surface of step mat 3 (5) is provided with an anti-slip rubber layer to prevent the baby from sliding down.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 The outer wall of hollow block 1 7 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the base pad 1. Hollow block 2 14 is provided on the inner wall of stepped pad 2 4, and hollow block 3 15 is provided on the inner wall of stepped pad 3 5. The outer wall of hollow block 2 14 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the base pad 1, and the outer wall of hollow block 3 15 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the base pad 1. The lower surfaces of stepped pad 2 4 and stepped pad 3 5 are both provided on the upper surface of the base pad 1. Stepped pad 1 2 is located on the left side of the base pad 1, stepped pad 2 4 is located in the middle of the base pad 1, and stepped pad 3 5 is located on the right side of the base pad 1.

[0030] Specifically, the internal structures of hollow block 2 14 and hollow block 3 15 are consistent with those of hollow block 1 7. Under the action of hollow block 1 7, hollow block 2 14 and hollow block 3 15, step pad 1 2, step pad 2 4 and step pad 3 5 can be disassembled individually. Step pad 1 2 is located at the highest point, step pad 2 4 is located in the middle, and step pad 3 5 is located at the lowest point, so that premature infants can maintain a comfortable posture when lying prone. The upper surfaces of step pad 1 2, step pad 2 4 and step pad 3 5 are all provided with protrusions to reduce the infant's body from sliding or shifting towards the edge of the pad, thereby increasing the infant's safety.

[0031] Working principle: When using the prone position mat, pushing the slide rod 8 moves the U-shaped frame 16 upward, pushing the inclined block 9 to the left, causing the trapezoidal block 10 to slide to the left under the limit of the fixed seat 11, compressing the spring 12 and the telescopic rod 13. The extension and retraction of the telescopic rod 13 prevents the spring 12 from deforming, thus assisting the sliding of the trapezoidal block 10. The trapezoidal block 10 slides out of the inner wall of the step mat 2 through the outer wall, no longer restricting the step mat 2, achieving a quick disassembly effect. At the same time, under the action of the hollow block 7, hollow block 14, and hollow block 15, the step mats 2, 4, and 5 can be moved according to the usage requirements. The prone positioning mat is designed to be easily replaceable. After adjusting the mat, the premature infant is placed on it. Step 2 corresponds to the infant's head, step 4 to the torso, and step 5 to the lower body. With the help of the face air cushion 3, the premature infant achieves better breathing and physiological posture, thereby improving respiratory function. During use, the prone positioning mat can be replaced with step 2, step 4, and step 5 as needed to achieve personalized adjustment and precisely meet the respiratory support needs of the premature infant. It also allows for individual cleaning and disinfection of each part, helping to maintain the hygiene of the prone positioning mat.

[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
