[0002] In the field of surgical procedures, ensuring patient safety and comfort during surgery is always of paramount importance. The lateral decubitus position is a common surgical position widely used in various surgeries, such as those involving the brain, spine, chest, and certain abdominal surgeries. During lateral decubitus surgery, one side of the patient's body is suspended in the air, significantly increasing the risk of falling off the operating table. To reduce this risk, guardrails are installed on both sides of the operating table to prevent patients from falling.

[0003] In the existing technology, the installation position of the guardrail is fixed and cannot be adjusted. Since different types of surgery have different requirements for the patient's position, the guardrail protection position cannot be moved forward or backward according to the type of surgery. Furthermore, the fit position of the guardrail is different for patients of different body types. Fixed guardrails are prone to improper protection position, which may lead to the risk of patients falling out of bed, thus reducing the versatility and applicability of the device.

[0004] In summary, this utility model provides a device for preventing falls from surgical lateral decubitus beds, thereby solving the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0022] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a device for preventing falls in a surgical lateral decubitus bed, comprising a bed frame 1 and a mattress 10 positioned at the top of the bed frame 1. Two fixing plates 2 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the bed frame 1, specifically at the bottom corners. Adjustable slides 3 are slidably connected to both sides of the bottom of the bed frame 1, specifically between opposite sides of each pair of fixing plates 2. One side of each fixing plate 2 is rotatably connected to a lead screw 4 via a bearing. One end of each lead screw 4 passes through the two adjusting slides 3 and the other two fixing plates 2 respectively. Extending to the front of the other two fixed plates 2, right-angle seats 5 are fixedly installed on the opposite sides of the two adjusting slides 3. The inner right angles of the two right-angle seats 5 are respectively in contact with the two sides of the bed frame 1. Side plate adjusting components 6 are fixedly installed on the top of the two right-angle seats 5. Support rods 8 are fixedly installed around the bottom of the bed frame 1. Each support rod 8 has a caster wheel fixedly installed at its bottom end. The installation of the caster wheel allows the entire bed frame to be moved easily, whether adjusting its position in the operating room or moving it between different areas. The bed frame 1 is easy and convenient to use. Meanwhile, a reinforcing crossbar 9 is fixedly installed between the opposite sides of each pair of adjacent support rods 8. The reinforcing crossbar 9 greatly enhances the stability of the bottom structure of the bed frame 1, ensuring that the bed frame will not shake or deform during movement, providing double protection for the patient's safety. The lead screw 4 is threadedly connected to the adjusting slide 3, and a handle 7 is fixedly connected to one end of each lead screw 4. The lead screw 4 and the adjusting slide 3 use a precise threaded connection. This connection method allows the adjusting slide 3 to move precisely linearly along the thread of the lead screw 4 when the lead screw 4 is rotated. The operator only needs to hold the handle 7 and easily rotate it to operate the lead screw 4, thereby precisely adjusting the position of the adjusting slide 3 to meet different usage needs. The two side plate adjusting components 6 are installed in a mirror symmetrical structure, and the two right-angle seats 5 are installed in a mirror symmetrical structure. Their inner right angles are tightly fitted to the two sides of the bed frame 1, which not only reinforces the bed frame 1 but also provides a stable connection point for the subsequent installation of the side plate adjusting components 6.

[0024] Please see Figure 2-4The side panel adjustment assembly 6 includes two fixing blocks 61, which are respectively fixedly installed on the front and rear sides of the top of the right-angle base 5. Each of the two fixing blocks 61 has a pin 62 rotatably connected to its opposite side via a bearing. A side baffle 63 is rotatably connected between the two fixing blocks 61 and their opposite sides via the pin 62. A horizontal plate 64 is fixedly connected between the bottom of both sides of the inner wall of the side baffle 63. The horizontal plate 64 serves to support and reinforce the side baffle 63. A protective guard is fixedly embedded between the inner frame surface of the side baffle 63 and the top of the horizontal plate 64. Net 65, the protective net 65 can effectively prevent patients from accidentally falling off the bed when in the lateral position during surgery, providing a key protective barrier for the patient's safety. A positioning plate 66 is fixedly connected to one side of the right-angle seat 5 and one side of the horizontal plate 64 by two fastening screws 67. One side of the protective net 65 is flush with the side of the side frame 63 near the bed frame 1. This design ensures that the protective net 65 can play a protective role to the maximum extent, while also avoiding discomfort or safety hazards to the patient that may be caused by the protective net 65 protruding or denting.

[0025] Please see Figure 2-4 The top and bottom of one side of the positioning plate 66 are provided with threaded holes that are compatible with the fastening screws 67. One end of each threaded hole extends into the interior of the right-angle seat 5 and the horizontal plate 64, respectively. By screwing the fastening screws 67 into these threaded holes, the positioning plate 66, the right-angle seat 5 and the horizontal plate 64 can be tightly fixed together to form a stable structural whole. When it is necessary to lower the side frame 63, the fastening screws 67 can be directly rotated and removed, so that the side frame 63 can be rotated 90° through the pin 62 and is no longer upright, making it convenient for the patient to lie on the bed.

[0026] Specific implementation method: The support rods 8 installed around the bottom of the bed frame 1 are equipped with wheels at the bottom, which allows the bed frame to move flexibly in places such as operating rooms. The reinforcing crossbars 9 between every two adjacent support rods 8 enhance the structural stability of the bottom of the bed frame 1, prevent shaking and deformation during movement, and ensure the safety of patients during movement.

[0027] The operator holds the lever 7 at one end of the lead screw 4 and rotates it. Because the lead screw 4 and the adjusting slide 3 are connected by a precision thread, the rotation of the lead screw 4 is converted into a precise linear movement of the adjusting slide 3 along the thread of the lead screw 4. The movement of the adjusting slide 3 drives the right-angle seat 5, which is fixed on the opposite side, to move. Since the right angle inside the right-angle seat 5 fits against the two sides of the bed frame 1, the position of the side plate adjusting assembly 6 on both sides of the bed frame 1 can be precisely adjusted to adapt to different surgical needs and patient body shapes.

[0028] Under normal conditions, the side frame 63 of the side plate adjustment assembly 6 is rotatably connected by pins 62 on two fixing blocks 61, and the positioning plate 66 between the right-angle seat 5 and the horizontal plate 64 is screwed into the corresponding threaded hole by the fastening screw 67, which tightly fixes the positioning plate 66, the right-angle seat 5 and the horizontal plate 64, keeping the side frame 63 upright. The horizontal plate 64 at the bottom of the inner wall of the side frame 63 reinforces the side frame 63, and the protective net 65 fixedly embedded between it and the inner frame surface of the side frame 63 prevents the patient from falling off the bed when in the lateral position during surgery. When the patient needs to lie down on the bed, the fastening screw 67 is turned and removed, and the side frame 63 can rotate 90° around the pin 62 and be lowered to facilitate the patient's lying down. After the patient is in a lying position, the side frame 63 is turned back to upright and the fastening screw 67 is tightened to fix it, so that it can play a protective role again.

[0029] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
