Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of elderly care turning over technology, and in particular to an elderly care turning over device. Background Technology

[0002] Nursing refers to comprehensive care activities conducted through professional knowledge and skills for individuals or groups, including health maintenance, disease prevention, rehabilitation support, and end-of-life care. Its core objective is to promote, restore, or maintain a healthy state. Elderly individuals often experience difficulty turning over independently due to declining physical function, prolonged bed rest, or post-operative weakness, requiring nursing assistance for turning them over to prevent pressure sores, promote blood circulation, and improve comfort.

[0003] An existing elderly care turning device (publication number: CN221904459U) uses a turning component and a pushing component on the surface of a fixed plate to facilitate the fixing of the plate. The device allows for adjustment of the turning angle according to the elderly person's condition when turning them over. However, it relies solely on a single rubber pad, which has poor breathability. Long-term use can easily lead to stuffy and damp skin, increasing the risk of pressure sores and affecting the comfort of caregivers. Furthermore, when adjusting the turning plate, caregivers rely solely on experience to manually operate the device, which can easily lead to excessive turning angles and cause the elderly person to slip.
