Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hospital beds, and in particular to a patient transfer bed. Background Technology
[0002] Transport beds are essential hospital equipment used to move patients from the operating table to wards, from ambulances to medical departments, and from patients to hospital examination rooms. They are necessary for internal patient transport. Transport beds require a bed board for the patient to lie down on and casters for easy movement. Patient transport often involves simultaneous intravenous infusion, oxygen administration, and physiological parameter monitoring, thus requiring the transport of infusion supplies, oxygen cylinders, portable ventilators, electrocardiogram monitors, and sometimes even more items.
[0003] Hospital patient transport beds often only have IV stands for hanging IV bottles, lacking a dedicated structure for carrying other items. When carrying oxygen cylinders, an oxygen cylinder cart is often needed to be pushed along with the transport bed, which is very inconvenient. Portable ventilators, ECG monitors, and other equipment often have to be placed on the bed, taking up a lot of space, and there is a risk of the equipment falling off.
[0004] The applicant previously applied for a patent for a patient transport bed, application number 202222398476.8. This patient transport bed includes a main body with a bed panel; it also includes a telescopic structure and an equipment storage basket. The telescopic structure is located below the head end of the bed panel and connected to it, extending along the length of the bed panel. The equipment storage basket is located in front of the bed panel and connected to the telescopic structure; the basket is foldable. When the basket is folded and the telescopic structure is shortened, the basket is located below the bed panel. When transporting patients requiring portable ventilators, ECG monitors, or other medical equipment, the telescopic structure extends, placing the basket in front of the bed panel. The basket remains upright and is relatively tall. Medical equipment can be placed inside the basket, avoiding encroachment on patient space; and its height effectively prevents medical equipment from falling out. However, this patient transport bed lacks a structure for storing oxygen cylinders, limiting its functionality. Furthermore, the equipment storage basket is located on one side of the bed, widening the transport bed and potentially making it difficult to pass through narrow passages. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0027] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the patient transport bed includes a bed body 1 and a shelf 2. Both sides of one end of the bed body 1 have vertically arranged insertion pipes 11. The shelf 2 includes a frame 21, a limiting plate 22, a storage tray 23, and a gas cylinder placement structure 24. The frame 21 includes two insertion rods 211. The frame 21 is vertically arranged, and the lower ends of the two insertion rods 211 are respectively inserted into the two insertion pipes 11. The limiting plate 22 is horizontally arranged and connected to the upper end of the frame 21. The storage tray 23 is placed inside the limiting plate 22. The gas cylinder placement structure 24 is located below the limiting plate 22 and connected to the frame 21.
[0028] The storage tray 23 of this invention can hold large and heavy medical equipment such as portable ventilators and electrocardiogram monitors. The gas cylinder placement structure 24 is specifically designed for holding oxygen cylinders 3. This invention has a large storage space, capable of holding various medical devices, fully meeting the treatment and monitoring needs during patient transport.
[0029] The storage tray 23 can be removed from the limiting tray 22. When the patient is undergoing an examination, the storage tray 23, along with the equipment, is taken out from the limiting tray 22 and placed near or on the examination equipment (such as a CT scanner), which makes the examination more convenient for the patient.
[0030] The storage rack 2 of this utility model is located in front of or behind the hospital bed 1, which will not make the width of the transfer bed wider, and will not make it difficult for the transfer bed to pass through some narrow passages.
[0031] The main body 1 of the bed can be designed based on existing technology. Some existing patient transport beds have an intubation tube 11 for inserting intravenous tubing. The intubation tube 11 of this utility model can be existing technology or added. It is preferable that the added intubation tube 11 has a blind hole, so that the insertion rod 211 can not move further after contacting the bottom of the hole. A tightening screw can be connected to the intubation tube 11 to tighten the intubation tube 11 and prevent the shelf 2 from moving upward.
[0032] In addition to two insertion tubes 11, the frame 21 may also include multiple horizontal bars, each spaced vertically, with both ends of the horizontal bars connected to the two insertion tubes 11. The storage tray 23 has a rectangular groove structure, which is used to accommodate the limiting tray 22 and restrict its translation. The storage tray 23 has a rectangular tray structure, and the medical equipment is placed inside, which has the effect of preventing the equipment from moving out.
[0033] The specific structure of the gas cylinder placement structure 24 is as follows: The gas cylinder placement structure 24 includes a placement cylinder 241, one end of the placement cylinder 241 has a bottom closed structure 242, and the other end of the placement cylinder 241 is an inlet 243. The placement cylinder 241 is inclined and the inlet 243 is higher than the bottom closed structure 242.
[0034] Oxygen cylinder 3 is placed into placement cylinder 241 through inlet 243. Placement cylinder 241 is tilted, and inlet 243 is higher than bottom closed structure 242, so that the top of oxygen cylinder 3 is tilted upward, which meets the requirements for oxygen cylinder placement.
[0035] The placement cylinder 241 can be composed of multiple annular components and multiple strip-shaped components. The annular components are coaxial and spaced apart, and the strip-shaped components are evenly distributed along the axial direction of the annular components and connected to each annular component. The bottom sealing structure 242 can be a cross-shaped component, which can prevent the oxygen cylinder 3 from falling out.
[0036] The specific fixing method of the gas cylinder placement structure 24 can be as follows: The patient transport bed includes a suspension rod 25, and the side of the gas cylinder placement structure 24 is connected to the frame 21. The upper edge of the gas cylinder placement structure 24 is connected to the limiting plate 22 through the suspension rod 25. This ensures that the gas cylinder placement structure 24 is firmly fixed and can accommodate heavier oxygen cylinders 3.
[0037] The preferred limiting plate 22 includes a plate body 231 and two handles 232, which are respectively connected to both ends of the plate body 231. The handles 232 are used to facilitate lifting the plate body 231.
[0038] Furthermore, the preferred patient transport bed includes a suspension rod 26, which is vertically positioned. The lower end of the suspension rod 26 is connected to the edge of the limiting plate 22, and the upper end of the suspension rod 26 is provided with a hook 261. The suspension rod 26 is used to hang infusion bottles, infusion bags, and other infusion supplies to facilitate infusion during patient transport.
[0039] Preferably, both ends of the bed body 1 have vertically arranged insertion tubes 11. This allows the shelf 2 to be placed in front of or behind the bed, depending on the need. The shelf 2 can be easily removed by pulling it out of the insertion tubes 11, making assembly and disassembly convenient.
[0040] The aforementioned patient transfer bed is equipped with a shelf 2, which is fixed in shape and occupies a large amount of space when not in use. Even when removed for storage, it is inconvenient. Therefore, this invention can be further designed to be foldable to reduce the space occupied when not in use and to facilitate removal and storage.
[0041] Specifically, such as Figures 4 to 5As shown, the specific arrangement of the shelf 2 is as follows: The shelf 2 includes a support rod 27; a limiting plate 22 is hinged to the frame body 21; the support rod 27 and the gas cylinder placement structure 24 are located on the same side of the frame body 1, the support rod 27 is located below the limiting plate 22, one end of the support rod 27 is hinged to the limiting plate 22, and the other end of the support rod 27 is hinged to the frame body 21 through a first hinge pin 28; the first hinge pin 28 can be removed, and when the first hinge pin 28 is removed, the limiting plate 22 can be rotated to a vertical position.
[0042] like Figure 6 As shown, by removing the first hinge pin 28, the shelf 2 loses its support and can be rotated to a vertical position.
[0043] The specific structure of the gas cylinder placement structure 24 is as follows: The gas cylinder placement structure 24 includes a flexible net bag 244, a net bag hanger 245, and a hanger support rod 246; the net bag hanger 245 is hinged to the frame 21; one end of the hanger support rod 246 is hinged to the net bag hanger 245, and the other end of the hanger support rod 246 is hinged to the frame 1 through a second hinge pin 247. When the second hinge pin 247 is removed, the net bag hanger 245 can be rotated to a vertical position; the flexible net bag 244 is inclined, and the flexible net bag 244 includes a mesh bag body 2411, a strap 2415, and two rigid strips 2412. The shape of the mesh bag body 2411 is... The mesh bag 2411 is semi-circular, with a bottom mesh 2413 at one end and a mesh bag inlet 2414 at the other end. The mesh bag 2411 is inclined, with the mesh bag inlet 2414 higher than the bottom mesh 2413. Two rigid strips 2412 are connected to the two sides of the mesh bag 2411 respectively. One rigid strip 2412 is connected to the frame 1, and the other rigid strip 2412 is connected to the mesh bag hanger 245 through a flexible strap 248. One end of the strap 2415 is connected to one rigid strip 2412, and the other end of the strap 2415 can be detachably connected to the other rigid strip 2412.
[0044] When the gas cylinder placement structure 24 is in use, the mesh bag hanger 245 is raised due to the support of the hanger support rod 246, thereby unfolding the mesh bag body 2411. After the oxygen cylinder 3 is placed into the mesh bag body 2411, it is secured with the straps 2415, thus fixing the oxygen cylinder 3 in place. For storage, if... Figure 6 As shown, when the second hinge pin 247 is removed, the net bag hanger 245 loses its support and rotates downwards; as the net bag hanger 245 rotates downwards, since the flexible net bag 244 is flexible, its shape becomes flat, and the gas cylinder placement structure 24 is in the storage state, occupying little space.
[0045] The limiting plate 22, identical to the first type of shelf 2, includes a plate body 231 and two handles 232, which are connected to both ends of the plate body 231. The patient transfer bed includes a suspension rod 26, which is vertically arranged and has a hook 261 at its upper end. The difference is that the lower end of the suspension rod 26 needs to be detachably connected to the edge of the limiting plate 22 to reduce the space occupied by the shelf 2 when not in use. The detachment and connection can be done in a conventional manner.
[0046] When the second type of shelf 2 is folded up, in addition to the limiting plate 22 and the gas cylinder placement structure 24, which need to be folded, the storage tray 23, the suspension rod 26, the first hinge pin 28, and the second hinge pin 247 need to be removed. It is best to have a place to store these removed components. Therefore, this utility model preferably includes a storage box 29, which is connected to the shelf body 1. The storage box 29 and the gas cylinder patient transport bed placement structure 24 are located on different sides of the shelf body 1. The storage box 29 is used to store the components removed during storage.
