AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing assisted turning devices for clinical nursing rely on electric mechanisms, which are costly to use and widely adopt, and require patients to slightly lift their bodies to cooperate, thus limiting their use.

Method used

It uses a manually inflatable balloon to drive the airbag expansion, combined with Velcro hooks and a pull rod assembly to achieve passive turning over, eliminating the need for an electric drive component. The combination of a conical sleeve and a sponge inner liner provides rigid triangular support and elastic cushioning.

Benefits of technology

It reduces the cost of use, enables completely passive turning over, avoids the need for patients to actively lift themselves, and improves the practicality and accessibility of the device.

Abstract

This utility model belongs to the field of assisted turning devices for clinical nursing, specifically an assisted turning device for clinical nursing, including a conical sleeve with an internal cavity. A sponge liner is fitted inside the cavity. A lifting component is fitted onto the inner surface of the conical sleeve, and a pull rod assembly is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the conical sleeve in an axially symmetrical manner. The lifting component includes an airbag fitted onto the inner surface of the conical sleeve. An air inlet is provided on the side of the airbag, and a one-way gas valve is fixedly connected to the side of the air inlet. A flexible tube is fitted onto the surface of the one-way gas valve, and an inflatable ball is fitted to one end of the flexible tube. By manually operating the inflatable ball, gas is injected into the airbag through the flexible tube and the one-way gas valve. The expansion of the airbag compresses the sponge liner, causing the conical sleeve to form a rigid triangular structure that supports the patient's body. This eliminates the need for an electric drive component, reducing usage costs and achieving a physical passive turning function.
