Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nursing cabinet technology, and in particular to an expandable nursing cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] In hospitals, bedside care cabinets are usually provided at the head of the bed to facilitate patients' placement of their belongings. These cabinets not only store patients' items but also facilitate the placement of medical equipment during patient care and treatment. However, since some patients may need to use multiple medical devices at the same time, such as patients undergoing hepatobiliary, pancreatic, or splenic surgery who often use ventilators and electrocardiogram monitors, there is often a shortage of bedside care cabinets, causing inconvenience to both patients and medical staff.

[0003] According to Chinese utility model patent CN213588857U, a nursing cabinet for hepatobiliary, pancreatic, and splenic surgery is disclosed. The cabinet includes a cabinet body, with rotatable support members on both sides. A first engaging member slides on each support member, securing the support member to the cabinet body. A placement member slides on the cabinet body, with a second engaging member sliding on the placement member. This utility model allows for the rotation of the support members while simultaneously pulling the first engaging member. When the support member is horizontal, the first engaging member is released, allowing it to be inserted into a first engaging hole via a sixth support rod under the action of a first elastic member, thus limiting the support member's position. The support member is used to place medical supplies. By pushing a second sliding rod, one end of a third sliding rod is positioned within a contact groove, pulling the placement member to extend it beyond one side of the cabinet body for placing medical supplies. Depending on nursing needs, different cabinet structures can be selectively adapted to meet the placement requirements of medical supplies during nursing procedures, reducing the occupancy of medical space.

[0004] Based on the search of the aforementioned patents and the discovery of existing technologies, the aforementioned patents expand the cabinet space by unfolding the support components on both sides of the cabinet. However, relevant hospital regulations stipulate that the distance between hospital beds should be about one meter. When the support components are unfolded, the side closest to the hospital bed cannot be unfolded, and it may even touch the adjacent hospital bed after unfolding, causing inconvenience to others and making it impractical. Therefore, in order to address the above problems, we propose an expandable nursing cabinet. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model embodiment provides an expandable nursing cabinet to solve the aforementioned technical problems.

[0006] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: it includes a cabinet, a lifting mechanism, a receiving unit, and a driving mechanism. The lifting mechanism is mounted on the cabinet and moves up and down along the height extension direction of the cabinet. The receiving unit includes multiple receiving trays, all of which are mounted on the lifting mechanism. A placement space is formed between two adjacent receiving trays. The placement space is used to adjust the size of the placement space by following the lifting mechanism. The driving mechanism is mounted on the cabinet and is used to drive the extension of the lifting mechanism.

[0007] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism is a scissor lift mechanism, which includes multiple scissor units that are hinged end to end. Each scissor unit includes two intersecting connecting rods, which are rotatably connected by a connecting shaft. The side wall of the receiving plate is connected to the connecting shaft.

[0008] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism is a socket-type lifting mechanism, which includes multiple interconnected and slidably arranged connecting bodies, and a connecting plate connects the connecting body to the receiving plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the top of the cabinet is provided with a storage cavity for storing the lifting mechanism.

[0010] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes multiple telescopic components and a top plate connected to the top of the multiple telescopic components, the top plate being connected to the upper end of the lifting mechanism.

[0011] Furthermore, when the lifting mechanism is retracted to its shortest state, the top plate is used to seal the opening of the storage cavity.

[0012] The above-mentioned technical solutions adopted in the embodiments of this utility model can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0013] In this utility model, a lifting mechanism is set on the cabinet, and multiple receiving plates are set on the lifting mechanism. When the driving mechanism drives the lifting mechanism to move, the lifting mechanism moves up and down along the height direction of the cabinet, which changes the size of the placement space between the two receiving plates. The instruments that need to be used can be placed in the placement space, and the cabinet is expanded in the height direction. Compared with the left and right expansion, it not only increases the use of the expanded space, but also avoids touching the adjacent beds and causing inconvenience to others.

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0026] The technical solutions provided by the various embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] This utility model embodiment provides an expandable nursing cabinet, including a cabinet body 1. The cabinet body 1 has internal storage space for storing patient supplies. Since the cabinet body 1 is typically placed at the head of the bed and is flush with the bed height, its actual usable area is limited. For example, after surgery, a patient may need equipment such as a ventilator or electrocardiogram monitor, and the usable area of ​​the cabinet body 1 may not meet the patient's needs. To expand the space utilization of the cabinet body 1 without affecting other patients in the ward, a lifting mechanism is included. The lifting mechanism is located on the cabinet body 1 and can be raised and lowered along the height extension direction of the cabinet body 1, achieving expansion within the height space. To facilitate the receiving of the items to be placed, a receiving unit is provided. The unit includes multiple receiving trays 2, all of which are mounted on the lifting mechanism. A placement space 3 is formed between two adjacent receiving trays 2. The size of the placement space 3 is adjusted according to the lifting mechanism's movement. That is, when the lifting mechanism extends upwards, the placement space 3 becomes larger, allowing medical devices and other items to be placed in it. When the lifting mechanism retracts downwards, the placement space 3 becomes smaller, thus reducing the space occupied. To facilitate the operation of the lifting mechanism, a drive mechanism 4 is provided on the cabinet 1. The drive mechanism 4 controls the lifting distance of the lifting mechanism and provides support to ensure the stability of the placed items. Compared to the existing technology that expands left and right, this not only increases the use of the expanded space but also avoids the problem of touching adjacent beds and causing inconvenience to others.

[0028] Preferably, to facilitate the expansion of the height of cabinet 1, such as... Figure 1 As shown, this is the first embodiment of the present invention. The lifting mechanism is a scissor lift mechanism, which includes multiple scissor units 5 that are hinged end to end. Each scissor unit 5 includes connecting rods 51 that are arranged in a crisscross pattern. The two connecting rods 51 are rotatably connected by a connecting shaft 6. When the driving mechanism 4 drives the lifting mechanism to lift, the two ends of the two mutually rotating connecting rods 51 will gradually approach each other, and the scissor unit 5 will deform. Therefore, in actual use, the two connecting rods 51 at the bottom can be slidably connected to the cabinet 1, or one of them can slide with the cabinet 1 while the other is hinged to the cabinet 1, thereby enabling the scissor unit 5 to deform. At this time, the side wall of the receiving plate 2 is connected to the connecting shaft 6. When the lifting mechanism lifts, the size of the placement space 3 can be changed at the same time, increasing the expansion space.

[0029] Preferred, such as Figure 2As shown, this is the second embodiment of the present invention. The lifting mechanism can also be a socket-type lifting mechanism. The socket-type lifting mechanism includes multiple interconnected and slidably arranged connecting bodies 7. Similarly, when the driving mechanism 4 drives the socket-type lifting mechanism to rise and fall, the multiple interconnected connecting bodies 7 are gradually unfolded, expanding the space in height. Then, the connecting bodies 7 are connected to the receiving plate 2 through a connecting plate 8. The length of the connecting plate 8 should be less than the notch opened on the lower connecting body 7, so that when the multiple connecting bodies 7 drive their corresponding receiving plates 2 to descend and retract, it will not hinder the socketing between the connecting bodies 7. Compared with the scissor-type lifting mechanism, the length of the connecting body 7 will not decrease when the height changes, and the connection range with the receiving plate 2 is larger than the connection range between the connecting shaft 6 and the receiving plate 2. The stability of the receiving plate 2 is higher, and the connecting bodies 7 are unfolded one by one. When it is not necessary for all the placement spaces 3 to be unfolded, it can be flexibly controlled. However, the scissor-type lifting mechanism can not only drive the placement space 3 to adjust synchronously, but also has a compact structure after retraction, occupying less static space than the socket-type lifting mechanism.

[0030] Preferably, in order to store the lifting mechanism, the top of the cabinet 1 is provided with a storage cavity 9 for storing the lifting mechanism. When the lifting mechanism is lowered and retracted, the lifting mechanism is stored inside the storage cavity 9, so as to avoid the exposed mechanical structure from affecting the cleanliness of the department environment.

[0031] Preferably, to improve the stability of the lifting mechanism, the drive mechanism 4 includes multiple telescopic members 41 and a top plate 42 connected to the top of the multiple telescopic members 41. The top plate 42 is connected to the top of the lifting mechanism. The telescopic members 41 can be electric telescopic rods, electric push rods, etc. To ensure smooth lifting, the telescopic members 41 can be located in the dead corner of the cabinet 1, providing support to the lifting mechanism from all four sides. To accommodate the telescopic movement of the lifting mechanism, if the lifting mechanism is a scissor-type lifting mechanism, then if the connecting shaft 6 in the topmost scissor unit 5 is connected to the top plate 42, it is a rotatable connection. If two connecting rods 51 are connected to the top plate 42, then the two connecting rods 51 can be slidably connected to the top plate 42, or one of the connecting rods 51 can be rotatably connected to the top plate 42. Next, another connecting rod 51 that is slidably connected to the top plate 42 and rotatably connected to the top plate 42 corresponds to the connecting rod 51 that is rotatably connected to the bottom of the cabinet 1. The connecting rod 51 that is slidably connected to the top plate 42 and slidably connected to the bottom of the cabinet 1 also correspond to the connecting rod 51 that is slidably connected to the top plate 42. When the lifting mechanism descends and retracts to its shortest state, the top plate 42 descends with the lifting mechanism and can completely cover the upper opening of the storage cavity 9. This is used to seal the opening of the storage cavity 9, forming a physical barrier to prevent dust, liquids (such as disinfectant, water stains) or debris from entering the storage cavity 9 and to avoid contaminating the lifting mechanism. After the top plate 42 is covered, it forms a flat top surface of the cabinet 1, which can be directly used as a temporary operating platform or storage space, avoiding the waste of top space caused by the recessed opening of the storage cavity 9.

[0032] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
