Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical equipment technology, and more specifically, it relates to an intelligent pressure monitoring and regulation device. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of industrial automation and intelligence, pressure monitoring and regulation devices are becoming increasingly important in fields such as industrial production, medical equipment, and aerospace.

[0003] Patients with panvascular diseases commonly face risks of microcirculatory disturbances and vascular endothelial damage due to systemic vascular dysfunction. Prolonged bed rest leading to excessive local pressure can cause a dual harm: firstly, it directly compresses superficial blood vessels, causing tissue ischemia; secondly, it activates endothelial inflammatory pathways through mechanical stress stimulation. When patients lie in bed, turning over or making other movements, it's impossible to monitor the pressure at the contact points in real time, thus hindering the effective prevention of pressure ulcers, reducing safety, and failing to provide a truly effective nursing experience.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we will study and improve the existing structure and its shortcomings to provide an intelligent pressure monitoring and regulation device, in order to achieve a more practical value. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an intelligent pressure monitoring and regulation device, which is achieved by the following specific technical means:

[0006] An intelligent pressure monitoring and regulation device includes an air cushion with a first slot, a second slot, and a third slot inside. An adjustment plate is positioned above each of the first, second, and third slots. Grooves are formed on the upper surfaces of the adjustment plates. Multiple pressure sensors are installed below the inner wall of each groove. An mounting plate is installed on one side of the inner wall of each groove. Multiple air chambers are formed on the upper surface of each mounting plate. Vent holes are correspondingly formed below the air chambers. The bottoms of the vent holes penetrate the mounting plate and communicate with the grooves. Air pumps are correspondingly installed below the inner walls of each groove. The output end of each air pump is connected to the bottom of the corresponding vent hole.

[0007] Preferably, cylinders are installed below the inner walls of the first, second, and third slots. The output ends of the cylinders are fixed to the bottom of the corresponding adjustment plates. An L-shaped connecting plate is installed on one side of each adjustment plate, and a fixing rod is slidably installed on the inner wall of each L-shaped connecting plate. The top and bottom of each fixing rod are fixed to the inner wall of the air cushion.

[0008] Preferably, an intelligent controller is installed below the inner wall of the first slot, and the intelligent controller and the air pump are electrically connected to multiple pressure sensors via wires.

[0009] Preferably, the upper surface of the air cushion has openings at the first, second, and third slots, and the outer wall of each adjustment plate is fitted to the inner wall of the opening.

[0010] Preferably, all of the mounting plates are made of rubber.

[0011] Preferably, all of the gas chambers are made of polyurethane.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. This utility model uses multiple pressure sensors installed below the mounting plate. When the patient lies on the air cushion, if the pressure sensors detect excessive local pressure at the patient's local contact points, they send a signal to the intelligent controller via wires. The intelligent controller can then drive the air pump to fill the corresponding air chamber with gas through the vent, causing it to expand and thus disperse the pressure at the patient's excessively high-pressure areas. The combined use of these technologies particularly enhances the monitoring accuracy of high-risk areas for panvascular lesions, such as the sacral and coccygeal regions and the femoral artery area, providing real-time monitoring and adjustment, thereby improving safety and providing an effective nursing experience.

[0014] 2. This utility model uses multiple cylinders to drive corresponding adjustment plates to slide up and down, and each adjustment plate is respectively set at the head end, torso, and lower limbs of the human body. When a large area of ​​pressure is too high, the pressure is dispersed by raising the adjustment plate to squeeze the contact part. The raising and lowering of the area can allow the patient to adjust to a height that suits them, bringing a more comfortable experience. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0022] Example:

[0023] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 4 As shown:

[0024] This utility model provides an intelligent pressure monitoring and adjustment device, including an air cushion 1 with a first slot 2, a second slot 3, and a third slot 4 inside. Adjustment plates 6 are provided above each of the first slot 2, second slot 3, and third slot 4. Grooves 7 are formed on the upper surfaces of the adjustment plates 6. Multiple pressure sensors 12 are installed on the lower part of the inner wall of each groove 7. An mounting plate 8 is installed on one side of the inner wall of each groove 7. Multiple air chambers 9 are formed on the upper surface of each mounting plate 8. Vent holes 11 are correspondingly formed below each air chamber 9. The bottoms of the vent holes 11 penetrate the mounting plate 8 and communicate with the grooves 7. Air pumps 10 are correspondingly installed on the lower part of the inner walls of each groove 7. The output end of the air pump 10 is connected to the bottom end of the corresponding vent 11. Multiple pressure sensors 12 are set below the mounting plate 8. When the patient lies on the air cushion 1, if the pressure sensor 12 detects that the local pressure at the patient's local contact point is too high, the pressure sensor 12 sends a signal to the intelligent controller 5 through the wire. The intelligent controller 5 can drive the air pump 10 to fill the corresponding air chamber 9 with gas through the vent 11, causing it to expand and thus disperse the pressure at the patient's high pressure point. The combined use of the above methods particularly enhances the monitoring accuracy of high-risk areas for panvascular lesions such as the sacrum, coccyx, and femoral artery region, and has the function of real-time monitoring and adjustment, thereby improving safety and providing an effective nursing experience.

[0025] In this system, cylinders 14 are installed on the lower part of the inner walls of the first slot 2, the second slot 3, and the third slot 4. The output ends of the cylinders 14 are fixed to the bottom of the corresponding adjustment plates 6. An L-shaped connecting plate 15 is installed on one side of each adjustment plate 6, and a fixing rod 16 is slidably installed on the inner wall of each L-shaped connecting plate 15. The top and bottom of each fixing rod 16 are fixed to the inner wall of the air cushion 1. The cylinders 14 drive the corresponding adjustment plates 6 to slide up and down. Each adjustment plate 6 is set at the head, torso, and lower limbs of the human body. When a large area of ​​pressure is too high, the pressure is dispersed by raising the adjustment plate 6 to squeeze the contact area. The raising and lowering of the area allows the patient to adjust to a suitable height, bringing a more comfortable experience.

[0026] The intelligent controller 5 is installed on the lower part of the inner wall of the first slot 2. The intelligent controller 5 and the air pump 10 are electrically connected to multiple pressure sensors 12 through wires.

[0027] Among them, the upper surface of the air cushion 1 has openings 13 at the first slot 2, the second slot 3 and the third slot 4, and the outer wall of each adjustment plate 6 is fitted to the inner wall of the opening 13.

[0028] Among them, multiple mounting plates 8 are made of rubber material, which has excellent elasticity and wear resistance. When the patient lies on the mounting plate 8, the pressure plate 8 is squeezed, which in turn squeezes the pressure sensor 12, and the pressure sensor 12 can detect the pressure value.

[0029] Among them, multiple air chambers 9 are made of polyurethane. Polyester fiber is a high-strength, heat-resistant synthetic fiber with good tensile and tear resistance. The air chambers 9 are initially deflated and are inflated by the air pump 10 to compress the patient's area.

[0030] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: First, when the patient lies on the air cushion 1, the pressure sensor 12 detects the pressure value of the patient's local contact points, such as the sacrum, coccyx, femoral artery area, and other high-risk areas. If the pressure sensor 12 detects that the local pressure is too high, it will send a signal to the intelligent controller 5 through the wire. After receiving the signal, the intelligent controller 5 drives the corresponding air pump 10 to work. The air pump 10 inflates the air chamber 9 through the vent 11. It should be noted that the air chamber 9 is made of polyurethane material and is initially deflated. After the air chamber 9 is inflated, it expands and squeezes the areas of the patient with excessive pressure, thereby dispersing the pressure.

[0031] Secondly, the air cushion 1 has a first slot 2, a second slot 3, and a third slot 4 inside. A cylinder 14 is installed on the lower part of the inner wall of each slot. When a large area of ​​pressure is too high in a certain area, such as the head, torso, or lower limbs, the cylinder 14 drives the corresponding adjusting plate 6 to slide up and down. The raising or lowering of the adjusting plate 6 can raise or lower the corresponding area, and the pressure is dispersed by squeezing the contact parts. At the same time, the patient can adjust it to a suitable height according to their own needs. When the local pressure is too high, the intelligent controller 5 receives the signal and drives the corresponding air pump 10 to inflate. When the pressure returns to normal, the intelligent controller 5 can control the air pump 10 to stop working or release gas, restoring the initial state of the air chamber 9. This device monitors the patient's local pressure in real time through the pressure sensor 12. Combined with the synergistic effect of the intelligent controller 5 and the air pump 10, it dynamically adjusts the inflation state of the air chamber 9 to achieve pressure dispersion. At the same time, the raising and lowering function of the adjusting plate 6 further optimizes the pressure distribution, especially enhancing the monitoring accuracy of high-risk areas such as the sacrum, coccyx, and femoral artery area, thereby improving the patient's safety and nursing experience.

Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
