Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of maternal and infant care bed technology, specifically relating to a nursing cart for newborn care. Background Technology

[0002] In neonatal clinical care, strollers are essential for bathing, massage, feeding, and medical procedures. However, existing strollers face two major technical bottlenecks in practical application: First, traditional strollers often employ a single welded frame structure or an irreversible folding design, resulting in bulky equipment that cannot be disassembled into planar components when not in use. This not only occupies limited hospital storage space but also significantly increases loading volume and cost during logistics and transportation, particularly hindering the multi-equipment configuration and emergency transport needs of primary healthcare institutions. Second, existing stroller frames are typically horizontally fixed, lacking tilt adjustment functionality tailored to the physiological characteristics of newborns. Clinical studies have shown that when feeding in a supine position, the infant's esophagus and stomach are horizontal, increasing the risk of milk reflux and choking. Furthermore, caregivers cannot adjust the stroller frame angle to create a semi-recumbent position with the head higher than the feet, significantly increasing the incidence of choking.

[0003] Therefore, how to provide a nursing cart for newborn care that is easy to store and has an adjustable angle has become a problem that needs to be considered by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a nursing cart for newborn care, which can be stored and transported by folding and splicing. The design of the self-locking gas spring can realize the angle adjustment of the tray frame, making it convenient for caregivers to take care of newborns.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A nursing cart for newborn care includes a bottom support frame, a rectangular frame, and a basin stand. Two bottom support frames, each U-shaped, are hinged to the bottom sides of the upright rectangular frame. A fixing hole is provided below the hinge axis of each bottom support frame. A threaded hole is provided on the rectangular frame corresponding to the fixing hole, and fixing bolts are threaded through the fixing hole and connected to the rectangular frame. Silent casters are provided at the bottom of each bottom support frame. A horizontal mounting plate is provided at the front top of the rectangular frame, and a first fixing plate is hinged to the top of the horizontal mounting plate. A support block is provided at the rear top of the rectangular frame. A self-locking gas spring is hinged to the middle of the rectangular frame, and an angle adjuster is installed at the other end of the self-locking gas spring. The angle adjuster is hinged to a second fixing plate, which abuts against the support block. A countersunk through hole is provided at the bottom of the basin stand, and the basin stand is bolted to the first and second fixing plates through the countersunk through hole.

[0007] Furthermore, the height of the first fixing plate is the same as the height of the second fixing plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the angle adjuster includes a mounting plate and an adjusting handle. The telescopic shaft of the self-locking gas spring is threadedly connected to the slotted mounting plate. The push switch of the telescopic shaft passes through the slotted mounting plate. The adjusting handle is hinged to the bottom of the slotted mounting plate, and the top of the adjusting handle abuts against the push switch.

[0009] Furthermore, an elastic buckle with an opening is provided below the bottom crossbeam of the bottom support frame at a location with the same width as the basin stand.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a storage frame, which is installed on the upper surface of the bottom crossbeam of the rectangular frame.

[0011] Furthermore, a push-pull handle is provided on one side of the top of the basin stand, and a guide tube is vertically provided on the other side. An adjustment knob is installed inside the guide tube for fixing the infusion stand.

[0012] Furthermore, the end of the basin stand away from the push-pull handle is provided with a headboard mounting slot.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model uses an upright rectangular frame as the main support, which can be folded and stored by rotating the bottom support frame. At the same time, the basin frame can be installed in reverse, and the basin frame and the bottom support frame cover the rectangular frame, which effectively reduces the footprint of the nursing cart and facilitates its storage and transportation. The setting of the self-locking gas spring can adjust the angle of the basin frame by turning the adjustment handle, thereby avoiding the situation of newborns choking on milk when feeding. The setting of the silent universal wheels can easily push the newborn to bathing, examination and rocking and soothing before sleep. Attached Figure Description
