Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of infant care aids technology, and more specifically, to a protective pad for a newborn incubator. Background Technology

[0002] Neonatal incubators provide newborns with a suitable living environment that is constant in temperature and humidity, noise-free, and with low bacterial infection risk, which is beneficial for medical staff to observe and treat newborns.

[0003] Currently, most neonatal incubators use a foam pad as the incubator mat. This foam pad is a single, flat piece with a cotton fabric cover and filled with foam. Only one incubator mat is used per incubator. Because the incubator mat is flat and lacks any protective covering, the newborn's limbs can come into contact with the incubator structure, leading to skin injuries. Therefore, it is usually necessary to place a separate neonatal nest mat on top of the existing incubator mat.

[0004] For example, Chinese patent CN201624921U discloses a newborn incubator mattress, which includes a mattress body and a mattress cover. The mattress cover is fixed to the bed frame by a skirt and straps, forming a protective boundary for the newborn's limbs and reducing the risk of direct skin contact with the bed frame. Although the incubator mattress has a skirt around its perimeter, the skirt's coverage is limited. It is designed to address the possibility that the newborn's limbs may come into contact with the bed frame at the rear when the newborn's body slides down. It cannot provide comprehensive protection for the newborn's head and torso from the side, and there is still a safety hazard of limbs colliding with the side walls of the incubator. Furthermore, the skirt is relatively low and can only provide limited obstruction. In practical applications, it is still necessary to make an additional newborn nest mat on the incubator mattress to provide a nest-like swaddling effect for the newborn. Utility Model Content

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, a clear and complete description will be provided below in conjunction with the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0028] A protective pad for newborn incubators, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it includes a support frame 1, which includes four independently extendable frame bodies 11 connected together in a square shape; a flexible enclosure 2 is connected to the inside of the support frame 1, and the inside of the flexible enclosure 2 cooperates with the incubator mattress 8 to form a receiving space 3 for receiving newborns. The size of the receiving space 3 can be changed by adjusting the extension and retraction of the frame bodies 11 of the support frame 1. Each frame body 11 is provided with a fixing component 5, and the fixing component 5 is detachably connected to the side of the incubator mattress 8.

[0029] Specifically, the flexible enclosure 2 is made of materials including, but not limited to, sponge; the four sides 11 of the support frame 1 can extend and retract independently, and the overall size of the square shape of the support frame 1 can be changed by adjusting the extension and retraction of each side 11. Since the flexible enclosure 2 is connected to the inside of the support frame 1, and the inside of the flexible enclosure 2 cooperates with the incubator mattress 8 to form a receiving space 3, changes in the size of the support frame 1 will cause changes in the position of the flexible enclosure 2. The flexible enclosure 2 will contract or expand under the action of the support frame 1, thereby adjusting the size of the receiving space 3. The fixing component 5 is detachably connected to the side of the incubator mattress 8, so that this protective pad can be fixed and installed as an independent unit without relying on the inherent structure of the mattress, achieving compatibility with any mattress.

[0030] The protective pad of this invention is detachably connected to the side of the mattress via a fixing component 5, eliminating the need to modify the mattress. It can be independently installed on incubator mattresses 8 of different brands and sizes, solving the safety hazard of existing incubator mattresses 8 lacking sponge protection around the edges, and achieving versatility with a single pad. Furthermore, the four side frames 11 are independently extendable, adjusting the size of the support frame 1 according to the newborn's body shape or the size of the incubator mattress 8, thereby changing the flexible enclosure 2 to alter the containment space 3, ensuring safe protection for different individuals and expanding the range of fit. As an independent protective unit, the protective pad can be disassembled for cleaning, disinfection, or replacement, meeting the hygiene requirements of medical environments and avoiding the risk of cross-contamination caused by modifying the entire mattress. Moreover, the containment space 3 formed by the flexible enclosure 2 provides excellent nest-like swaddling for newborns, eliminating the need for additional nest pads for placing newborns.

[0031] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the frame 11 includes a first frame portion 111 and a second frame portion 114. One end of the first frame portion 111 has a movable groove 112. The second frame portion 114 is inserted into the movable groove 112 and slidably connected to the first frame portion 111. A locking component 12 is provided between the first frame portion 111 and the second frame portion 114. Specifically, the movable groove 112 of the first frame portion 111 provides a sliding track for the second frame portion 114, allowing the second frame portion 114 to move axially along the movable groove 112, thus achieving the extension and retraction adjustment of the frame 11's length. After adjustment to the target length, the locking component 12 restricts the relative sliding between the first frame portion 111 and the second frame portion 114, fixing the frame 11 at a specific extension / retraction position, thereby stabilizing the overall size of the support frame 1. Through the sliding extension and retraction of the first frame portion 111 and the second frame portion 114, the length of the four frame portions 11 can be independently adjusted, thereby changing the square size formed by the support frame 1, and causing the inner flexible enclosure 2 to adjust the size of the receiving space 3, adapting to the protection needs of newborns or incubator mattresses 8 of different sizes. The locking component 12 ensures that the frame 11 maintains a fixed length after telescopic adjustment, preventing changes in the storage space 3 due to frame shaking during use, and improving the structural stability and safety of the protective pad.

[0032] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 7As shown, the locking component 12 includes a locking shaft 121. A radial groove 115 is formed on the surface of the second frame portion 114, within which the locking shaft 121 slides. An elastic element 123 is provided between the locking shaft 121 and the bottom of the groove 115. Multiple adjusting holes 113, which mate with the locking shaft 121, are formed axially on the second frame portion 114. The locking shaft 121 can be inserted into different adjusting holes 113 to adjust the extension and retraction of the frame 11 and lock it in place. Specifically, the elastic element 123 is a compression spring, providing radial elastic force to the locking shaft 121, ensuring that one end always maintains a tendency to move towards the axis of the second frame portion 114. When the extension / retraction of the frame 11 needs to be adjusted, an external force pushes the second frame portion 114 to slide axially relative to the first frame portion 111. At this time, the locking shaft 121 is pressed into the slide groove 115, overcoming the elastic force of the elastic element 123 and sliding inward, disengaging from the current adjustment hole 113. After adjustment to the target length, the locking shaft 121 is aligned with the new adjustment hole 113, and the elastic force of the elastic element 123 pushes the locking shaft 121 radially into the adjustment hole 113, restricting the relative sliding between the first frame portion 111 and the second frame portion 114, thereby locking the extension / retraction of the frame 11. The elastic element 123 pushes the locking shaft 121 to automatically engage with the adjustment hole 113. Multiple adjustment holes 113 provide multiple length adjustment levels, which can accurately adapt to the size requirements of different newborns or incubator mattresses 8.

[0033] In some embodiments of this application, a locking sleeve 124 with a threaded portion 125 is also included. The outer end of the locking shaft 121 has a threaded hole 122. The locking sleeve 124 can be inserted into the threaded hole 122 through the threaded portion 125 and threadedly engaged to restrict the locking shaft 121 within the adjusting hole 113. Specifically, the threaded portion 125 of the locking sleeve 124 and the threaded hole 122 at the outer end of the locking shaft 121 form a threaded engagement. By rotating the locking sleeve 124, it is screwed in axially along the threaded hole 122, tightly pressing the locking shaft 121 into the adjusting hole 113. The mechanical engagement of the threads restricts the movement of the locking shaft 121 within the adjusting hole 113, thereby preventing the locking shaft 121 from dislodging from the adjusting hole 113 due to external force, and ensuring that the locking state of the locking shaft 121 for the extension and retraction of the frame 11 is stable and reliable.

[0034] The threaded engagement creates a mechanical lock, which, compared to a single locking structure, effectively prevents the locking shaft 121 from accidentally loosening or popping out, ensuring the frame 11 remains fixed after adjustment and preventing the receiving space 3 from shifting due to locking failure. The tightening or loosening of the threaded engagement allows medical personnel to quickly lock or unlock, improving adjustment efficiency. This dual locking mechanism enhances the overall stability of the support frame 1, ensuring the protective pad maintains reliable protective performance during use and guaranteeing the safety of newborns.

[0035] In some embodiments of this application, the flexible enclosure 2 has multiple connecting portions 21 on its outer side, which are respectively connected to the first frame portion 111 and the second frame portion 114 of the four side frames 11. Specifically, there are eight connecting portions 21, which are respectively connected to the first frame portion 111 and the second frame portion 114 of the four side frames 11. The flexible enclosure 2 is fixedly connected to the first frame portion 111 and the second frame portion 114 of the four side frames 11 through the connecting portions 21 on its outer side. When the first frame portion 111 and the second frame portion 114 of the frame 11 adjust the length of the frame 11 by sliding and telescoping, the connecting portions 21 synchronously pull the flexible enclosure 2 along with the telescoping of the frame 11, so that the flexible enclosure 2 can change its shape according to the size change of the frame 11, thereby maintaining a close fit with the frame 11 and forming a correspondingly sized receiving space 3 in conjunction with the incubator mattress 8.

[0036] The flexible enclosure 2 is fixedly connected to the first frame portion 111 and the second frame portion 114 of the four side frames 11 via the outer connecting portion 21. When the first frame portion 111 and the second frame portion 114 of the frame 11 adjust the length of the frame 11 by sliding and telescoping, the connecting portion 21 moves the flexible enclosure 2 synchronously with the telescoping of the frame 11. This allows the flexible enclosure 2 to change its coverage area according to the size of the frame 11, ensuring that the flexible enclosure 2 can fit tightly against the inner side of the frame 11 regardless of its telescoping length, and work with the incubator mattress 8 to form a correspondingly sized receiving space 3; thus adapting to the body shape of newborns and the size of different models of incubator mattresses 8. Multiple connecting portions 21 are connected to the four side frames 11 respectively, so that the flexible enclosure 2 is supported in four directions, avoiding tearing or deformation caused by unilateral force, and improving the stability and reliability of the overall structure. The connection portion 21 is fixed to the frame 11.

[0037] In other embodiments, the number of connecting parts 21 can also be set to 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11 or 12, so as to achieve multi-point connection with the support frame 1.

[0038] In some embodiments of this application, the connecting part 21 of the flexible barrier 2 is detachably connected to the frame 11. Specifically, the connecting part 21 of the flexible barrier 2 and the frame 11 are fixed or separated through a detachable connection method, such as a non-permanent connection structure like a buckle or Velcro. When it is necessary to clean the flexible barrier 2 or replace parts, the fixed state of the connecting part 21 and the frame 11 can be quickly released, and the connection can be reconnected after the operation is completed. The detachable connection allows the position of the flexible barrier 2 to be adjusted or the barrier to be removed without disassembling the entire support frame 1. This makes it convenient for medical staff to adapt the barrier shape according to the expanded and contracted dimensions of the frame 11, or to clean and disinfect the barrier separately, meeting the hygiene requirements of medical scenarios. When the flexible barrier 2 needs to be replaced due to wear and tear, it is not necessary to replace the entire protective pad; only the old barrier needs to be removed and the new barrier installed, reducing resource waste and maintenance costs.

[0039] In some embodiments of this application, the fixing component 5 includes an elastic strap 51 connected to the frame 11 and a fixing part 52 connected to the mattress. A snap-fit ​​element 53 is provided between the fixing part 52 and the elastic strap 51. Specifically, the fixing part 52 is bonded to the side of the heating chamber mattress 8 through its adhesive surface. One end of the elastic strap 51 is connected to the frame 11, and the other end is detachably connected to the fixing part 52 on the mattress through the snap-fit ​​element 53. During installation, the elastic strap 51 is stretched to fit the side size of the mattress, and the frame 11 is fixed to the edge of the mattress by the locking action of the snap-fit ​​element 53. During disassembly, the connection state of the snap-fit ​​element 53 is released, the elastic strap 51 retracts, and the frame 11 is separated from the heating chamber mattress 8, thus removing the protective pad. The elastic deformation capability of the elastic strap 51 is utilized to adapt to the side of the mattress of different thicknesses or shapes, achieving flexible fixing. Because the flexible enclosure 2 is detachably connected to the frame 11, this protective pad can be quickly installed on different incubator mattresses 8 without tools or complicated operations. It can be used in conjunction with the existing incubator mattress 8 to form an incubator mattress 8 with a fence that can wrap and protect newborns. As a fixed structure independent of the incubator mattress 8, it does not require modification of the mattress or reliance on its inherent structure. It can be adapted to different brands and models of incubator mattresses 8, solving the problem of existing mattresses lacking protection around the perimeter and requiring the separate fabrication of a nest for newborns, thus achieving multiple uses with one pad. The elastic strap 51, through the tension generated by stretching and the mechanical locking of the snap fastener 53, ensures that the support frame 1 is tightly connected to the mattress, preventing the protective pad from shifting due to newborn movement or touch during use, thereby enhancing safety.

[0040] Furthermore, the fixing part 52 has an adhesive surface coated with a medical-grade silicone adhesive layer, including but not limited to silicone pressure-sensitive adhesive, and covered with a peelable protective paper. It is directly adhered to the mattress surface during use. The snap-fit ​​component 53 has a snap-fit ​​structure. A male snap-fit, such as a protruding snap-fit, is provided at the end of the elastic strap 51, and a female snap-fit, such as a snap-fit ​​seat with a slot, is provided at the corresponding position on the fixing part 52. The male and female snap-fits are engaged by pressing, achieving connection through the mechanical engagement of the snap-fit. To disassemble, press the unlock button on the side of the snap-fit ​​to release the engagement.

[0041] In some embodiments of this application, a length adjustment ring is provided in the middle of the elastic strap 51. Specifically, the length adjustment ring is located in the middle of the elastic strap 51, and the overall effective length of the strap can be adjusted by changing the folding length of the elastic strap 51 through the adjustment ring. In specific operation, both ends of the strap can be manually pulled to make the strap slide within the adjustment ring, shortening or lengthening the exposed part, thereby changing the tightness of the connection between the elastic strap 51 and the mattress fixing part 52 to adapt to the side of the mattress with different thicknesses or shapes. By flexibly adjusting the length of the elastic strap 51 through the adjustment ring, the protective pad can adapt to the edge dimensions of different specifications of mattresses, such as thickness differences, ensuring that the fixing part 5 fits tightly with the side of the mattress and avoiding unstable installation problems caused by the strap being too long or too short.

[0042] In some embodiments of this application, the bottom of the flexible enclosure 2 is provided with a pad 4 that contacts the incubator mattress 8, and the surface of the pad 4 has anti-slip texture. Specifically, the pad 4 is made of silicone. The pad 4 at the bottom of the flexible enclosure 2 directly contacts the surface of the incubator mattress 8. The anti-slip texture on the surface of the pad 4 increases the roughness of the contact surface, increasing the friction between the pad 4 and the mattress, thereby inhibiting the sliding displacement of the protective pad on the mattress and ensuring that the support frame 1 and the flexible enclosure 2 remain stable during use. The anti-slip texture effectively prevents the protective pad from shifting due to external forces such as newborn movement or medical staff operation through physical friction, ensuring the fixed position of the receiving space 3 and improving protective safety.

[0043] In some embodiments of this application, the flexible enclosure 2 has a connecting strap 6 on its surface, and a shoulder pad 7 is attached to the end of the connecting strap 6. The shoulder pad 7 can be placed at any position within the receiving space 3 via the connecting strap 6. Specifically, the connecting strap 6 on the surface of the flexible enclosure 2 connects the shoulder pad 7 to the enclosure surface. The shoulder pad 7 can be adjusted to an appropriate height below the neck via the connecting strap 6, which can slightly lift the newborn's head, using physical support to help keep the airway straight and reduce the risk of suffocation due to tongue retraction or spitting up, especially suitable for premature infants or low-birth-weight infants who are prone to choking on milk. The flexible positioning characteristics of the connecting strap 6 allow the shoulder pad 7 to be precisely fixed to the back of the neck, providing non-rigid flexible support for the newborn, helping to maintain the head position when lying on the side or back, avoiding head deformation caused by prolonged repetition of the same posture, such as plagiocephaly, and adapting to the needs of medical staff for phased correction of the newborn's position.
