Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 7 The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail.

[0025] Depend on Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the present invention includes two fixed rods that cooperate with the hospital bed and a folding mechanism rotatably connected to the upper side of the fixed rods. In order to extend the bed rails of the ward to reduce the gap between the bed rails and the headboard and reduce the probability of the child falling off the bed, the fixed rods include two sliding rods 1 and an adjusting sleeve 2. The two sliding rods 1 are detachably connected to the front and rear ends of the adjusting sleeve 2, and each folding mechanism is set on the upper side of the corresponding sliding rod 1.

[0026] The folding mechanism includes a connecting assembly 4 connected to the sliding rod 1 and an extension mechanism. The extension mechanism includes a first connecting plate 5, a second connecting plate 6 and a third connecting plate 7. A first connecting plate 5 is provided on the upper side of the connecting assembly 4. A second connecting plate 6 is rotatably connected to the upper side of the first connecting plate 5. A third connecting plate 7 is rotatably connected to the side of the second connecting plate 6 away from the first connecting plate 5.

[0027] It should be noted that in this embodiment, there are 2 fixing rods and 4 folding mechanisms. The 4 folding mechanisms can block the four gaps formed by the two bed rails on the left and right sides of the bed and the head and foot of the bed.

[0028] When in use, the fixing rod can be fixed to the patient's bed. At this time, the adjusting sleeve 2 can be operated to make the sliding rods 1 at the front and rear ends of the adjusting sleeve 2 move away from each other and press against the bed legs of the patient's bed, thus completing the connection between the fixing rod and the bed. Then, adjust the position of the first connecting plate 5 so that the first connecting plate 5, the second connecting plate 6 and the third connecting plate 7 together block the gap between the patient's bed rail and the headboard, which can reduce the probability of the child falling off the bed.

[0029] When needed, the folding mechanisms on the left and right sides of the headboard of the patient's bed can be unfolded. At this time, under the action of the first connecting plate 5, the second connecting plate 6 and the third connecting plate 7 on the left and right sides of the bed, they can be combined to form a shelf, which makes it convenient for medical staff and family members to place items when needed.

[0030] When there is no need to block the gap, each folding mechanism can be rotated relative to the sliding rod 1, so that each folding mechanism can be stored under the bed, making it convenient for the child to get in and out of bed.

[0031] Furthermore, by Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in order to facilitate use by staff, a first chamfer 8 is provided on the upper side of the first connecting plate 5, and a second chamfer 9 is provided on the side of the second connecting plate 6 near the first connecting plate 5. The first chamfer 8 and the second chamfer 9 cooperate to form a structure in which the second connecting plate 6 is rotated and limited relative to the first connecting plate 5. A clearance groove 10 is provided in the middle of the second connecting plate 6, and the third connecting plate 7 is rotatably connected to the left and right inner side walls of the clearance groove 10. A storage groove 11 is provided on the side wall of the third connecting plate 7.

[0032] Furthermore, by Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in order to make the support more stable when placing items, a first limiting groove 12 is provided on each of the left and right sides of the positioning groove 10, and a first limiting block 13 is fixedly connected to each of the left and right sides of the third connecting plate 7. The first limiting block 13 and the first limiting groove 12 cooperate with each other to form a structure in which the third connecting plate 7 is rotated and limited relative to the second connecting plate 6.

[0033] When the folding mechanism needs to be unfolded, the second connecting plate 6 can be rotated relative to the first connecting plate 5 until the second chamfer 9 and the first chamfer 8 are in contact. An angle limit is formed between the second connecting plate 6 and the first connecting plate 5. Then, the third connecting plate 7 is rotated relative to the second connecting plate 6. At this time, with the cooperation of the first limiting block 13 and the first limiting groove 12, the angle of the third connecting plate 7 relative to the second connecting plate 6 can be limited.

[0034] Furthermore, by Figures 1 to 7As shown, to make it more convenient for medical staff to use, the first connecting plate 5 is provided with a sliding block 14 and a fixed block 15 on the side near the bed. The sliding block 14 is fixedly connected to the first connecting plate 5. A first arc-shaped groove 16 is opened on the lower side of the sliding block 14. Multiple rolling wheels 17 are rotatably connected inside the first arc-shaped groove 16. A first sliding strip 18 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixed block 15 near the first connecting plate 5. A first sliding groove 19 that matches the first sliding strip 18 is opened on the side of the first connecting plate 5 near the fixed block 15. Two magnets 20 are provided between the fixed block 15 and the sliding block 14. The two magnets 20 can attract each other, so that the first connecting plate 5 can only be moved by human power in a specific position. The fixed block 15 and the sliding block 14 are both fixedly connected to the corresponding magnets 20.

[0035] It should be noted that a second arc-shaped groove is provided on the lower side of the fixing block 15. The fixing block 15 is engaged with the bed rail through the second arc-shaped groove. During use, the fixing block 15 will not move relative to the bed rail. With the cooperation of the connecting mechanism and the fixing block 15, the first connecting plate 5 can only slide back and forth along the sliding rod 1.

[0036] When the position of the first connecting plate 5 needs to be moved, the first connecting plate 5 can be pushed directly. At this time, under the action of the rolling wheel 17 inside the sliding block 14, the friction between the sliding block 14 and the bed rail can be reduced. When the folding mechanism needs to be stored under the bed, the bed rail can be moved to store it. At this time, the bed rail that is engaged with the fixing block 15 will move downward, and the bed rail will disengage from the fixing block 15, so the first connecting plate 5 can be stored under the bed.

[0037] Furthermore, by Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in order to reduce the space of the device when it is not in use, the connecting component 4 includes a first U-shaped plate 21 and a second U-shaped plate 22. A second sliding strip 23 is fixedly connected to each of the left and right sides of the sliding rod 1. The first U-shaped plate 21 has two second sliding grooves 24 that are adapted to the second sliding strips 23. The second sliding strips 23 and the second sliding grooves 24 cooperate with each other to form a structure in which the first U-shaped plate 21 slides back and forth along the sliding rod 1. The second U-shaped plate 22 is rotatably fitted on the outside of the first U-shaped plate 21.

[0038] Furthermore, by Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in order to facilitate the storage of the device, a rotary damper 25 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the second U-shaped plate 22, and a small gear 26 is fixedly connected to the rotating end of the rotary damper 25. A large gear 27 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the first U-shaped plate 21, and the small gear 26 meshes with the large gear 27.

[0039] Furthermore, by Figures 1 to 7As shown, a third sliding strip 28 is fixedly connected to the side of the second U-shaped plate 22 near the first connecting plate 5. A third sliding groove 29 is provided on the lower side of the first connecting plate 5. The third sliding strip 28 and the third sliding groove 29 cooperate with each other to form a structure in which the first connecting plate 5 slides back and forth relative to the second U-shaped plate 22. Through the third sliding groove 29 and the third sliding strip 28, the position of the first connecting plate 5 relative to the bed rail can be adjusted by a greater distance.

[0040] In use, the first U-shaped plate 21 can slide back and forth relative to the sliding rod 1 under the action of the second sliding groove 24 and the second sliding bar 23. When the first connecting plate 5 needs to rotate, the first connecting plate 5 drives the second U-shaped plate 22 to rotate through the third sliding bar 28. Since the small gear 26 and the large gear 27 mesh, the first connecting plate 5 will not rotate quickly under the action of the rotation damper 25 during the rotation of the second U-shaped plate 22 relative to the first U-shaped plate 21. In addition, it should be noted that the rotation damper 25 also has a self-locking function, which can store the folding mechanism under the bed when needed.

[0041] Furthermore, by Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in order to accommodate beds of different lengths, a support plate 30 is fixedly connected to the side of the sliding rod 1 away from the adjusting sleeve 2. An operating sleeve 31 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the adjusting sleeve 2. A double-threaded rod 32 is rotatably connected inside the operating sleeve 31. Two moving plates 33 are slidably connected inside the adjusting sleeve 2. A threaded sleeve 34 is rotatably connected to the lower side of each moving plate 33. Each threaded sleeve 34 is threadedly connected to the double-threaded rod 32. An operating knob 35 is fixedly connected to each of the front and rear sides of the double-threaded rod 32. Each operating knob 35 has an operating groove 36 on the side away from the double-threaded rod 32. The double-threaded rod 32 has symmetrical threads, which can drive the two threaded sleeves 34 to move in opposite directions when the double-threaded rod 32 is rotated. An anti-slip pad is provided on the side of the support plate 30 away from the sliding rod 1.

[0042] In use, by rotating the operating knob 35, the double threaded rod 32 can be rotated, which in turn pushes the two sliding rods 1 to move through the threaded sleeve 34 and the moving plate 33. The sliding rods 1 are fixed relative to the bed by the support plate 30 abutting against the bed legs.

[0043] When using this utility model, firstly, each sliding rod 1 can be connected to the corresponding adjusting sleeve 2. Then, the suction cup 37 on the sliding rod 1 is brought into contact with the bottom of the bed board. The adjusting sleeve 2 is operated so that the sliding rod 1 abuts against the bed leg through the support plate 30, thus fixing the sliding rod 1 relative to the bed. Then, the position of the first connecting plate 5 is adjusted so that the first connecting plate 5, the second connecting plate 6, and the third connecting plate 7 together block the gap between the patient bed rail and the headboard, thereby reducing the probability of the child falling off the bed.

[0044] When needed, the folding mechanisms on the left and right sides of the headboard of the patient's bed can be unfolded. At this time, under the action of the first connecting plate 5, the second connecting plate 6 and the third connecting plate 7 on the left and right sides of the bed, they can be combined to form a shelf, which makes it convenient for medical staff and family members to place items when needed.

[0045] When there is no need to block the gap, each folding mechanism can be rotated relative to the sliding rod 1, so that each folding mechanism can be stored under the bed, making it convenient for the child to get in and out of bed.

[0046] This utility model has a novel structure, ingenious design, and simple and convenient operation. Through this design, it effectively realizes the function of blocking the gap between the bed rails in the ward, reducing the gap between the bed rails and the headboard, reducing the probability of children falling off the bed, adding the function of placing items, making the support more stable when placing items, and increasing the overall folding and storage function of the device.

[0047] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
