Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish the description and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0029] Example:

[0030] like Figure 1-6As shown in this embodiment, an intelligent sleep protection and health care bed for the elderly includes a bed board mounting frame 1. A headboard 2 is fixedly mounted on the front end of the bed board mounting frame 1. A main controller 15 is located on the back of the headboard 2. A fixing frame 3 is fixedly mounted between the middle of the two opposite inner surfaces of the bed board mounting frame 1. A middle bed board frame 4 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the fixing frame 3. Side bed board frames 5 are hinged to the opposite sides of the middle bed board frame 4 via two hinges. A suitable mattress is placed on top of the middle bed board frame 4 and the two side bed board frames 5. Several linearly arranged plate pressure sensors 6 are installed on the upper surface of the side bed board frames 5. When the elderly lie in bed to sleep, the multiple plate pressure sensors 6 distributed on the upper surface of the side bed board frames 5 will detect the pressure distribution on the mattress in real time. A connecting piece 7 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the headboard 2. A connecting piece 8 is fixedly connected to the front of the connecting piece 7. A mounting frame 9 is hinged to the lower end of the connecting piece 8. A millimeter-wave radar 10 is installed inside the mounting frame 9. The millimeter-wave radar 10 is inclined. The millimeter-wave radar 10 faces the central bed frame 4. A connecting frame 11 is provided between the two side bed frames 5. Two symmetrically arranged connecting shafts 12 are fixedly installed through the lower end of the connecting frame 11. Electric push rods 13 are rotatably connected to the connecting shafts 12. When the main controller 15 detects abnormal pressure changes in the corresponding area of ​​the side bed frame 5 through the plate pressure sensor 6, or when the millimeter-wave radar 10 detects that the elderly person is close to the side, the main controller 15 will send a control signal to the electric push rods 13. A frame plate 14 is fixedly connected to the middle of the side bed frame 5. The push rod ends of the two electric push rods 13 are rotatably connected to the two frame plates 14 respectively. After receiving the signal, the push rod ends of the electric push rods 13 will extend and retract, thereby driving the side bed frame 5 to rotate around the hinge connected to the central bed frame 4. After the side bed frame 5 rotates, it can form an inclined protective barrier to block the elderly person on the bed, thereby preventing the elderly person from falling off the bed while sleeping, thus realizing automated safety protection.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bed board mounting frame 1 is fixedly installed with limit plates 16 near the four corners by bolts. The lower surface of the side bed board frame 5 is in contact with the limit plates 16. At this time, the two side bed board frames 5 are in the initial position, and the limit plates 16 can limit the side bed board frames 5.

[0032] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a first limiting member 17 is provided at the end of the connecting shaft 12 away from the connecting frame 11, and a second limiting member 18 is provided at the end of the frame plate 14. The first limiting member 17 and the second limiting member 18 cooperate to limit the electric push rod 13, prevent the electric push rod 13 from shifting position, and ensure its stability during use.

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a slot 19 is provided in the middle of the connecting frame 11, and the middle bed board frame 4 is installed in the slot 19. The front and rear ends of the connecting frame 11 are fixedly connected to the reinforcing frame 20 by bolts. The end of the reinforcing frame 20 away from the connecting frame 11 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the middle bed board frame 4 by bolts. The electric push rod 13 and the plate pressure sensor 6 are both electrically connected to the main controller 15. The two reinforcing frames 20 can ensure the stability of the connecting frame 11 itself.

[0034] In this application, the model of the chip pressure sensor 6 is FSR402, the model of the millimeter-wave radar 10 is MR24DB01, and the model of the main controller 15 is STM32F103C8T6. Since the chip pressure sensor 6, the millimeter-wave radar 10, and the main controller 15 are all known prior art, the working principle and usage of the chip pressure sensor 6, the millimeter-wave radar 10, and the main controller 15 will not be described in detail here.

[0035] The working principle of the above embodiment is as follows: First, a suitable mattress is placed on top of the central bed frame 4 and the two side bed frames 5. When the elderly person lies down to sleep, multiple plate-type pressure sensors 6 distributed on the upper surface of the side bed frames 5 will detect the pressure distribution on the mattress in real time. At the same time, the millimeter-wave radar 10 installed in front of the headboard 2 is tilted and facing the central bed frame 4, and can also monitor the elderly person's position on the bed in real time. The plate-type pressure sensors 6 and the millimeter-wave radar 10 will transmit the detected signals to the main controller 15 on the back of the headboard 2. When the main controller 15 detects the pressure distribution on the side bed frame 5 through the plate-type pressure sensors 6, the pressure distribution is monitored. If there is an abnormal pressure change in the area corresponding to the side bed frame 5, or if the millimeter-wave radar 10 detects that the elderly person is close to the side, the main controller 15 will send a control signal to the electric push rod 13. After receiving the signal, the push rod 13 will extend and retract, thereby driving the side bed frame 5 to rotate around the hinge connected to the central bed frame 4. After the side bed frame 5 rotates, it can form an inclined protective barrier to block the elderly person on the bed, thereby preventing the elderly person from falling off the bed while sleeping. This achieves automated safety protection without the need for real-time manual intervention, providing a more intelligent and convenient safe sleep environment for the elderly.

[0036] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present utility model and are not intended to limit the technical solutions described in the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, the present utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. Therefore, any modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present utility model, and all technical solutions and improvements that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the utility model, are covered within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
