Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary technology, specifically to a patient turning aid device for use in the intensive care unit. Background Technology
[0002] During the medical process, some critically ill patients may have poor coordination of their body control due to their condition or surgery. Lying flat for a long time can also make patients feel uncomfortable, lose mobility, be unable to take care of themselves, or turn over on their own. Maintaining one position for a long time will cause local body tissues to be continuously compressed, which will lead to obstructed local blood circulation, making patients feel uncomfortable. In severe cases, it can lead to local tissue necrosis, bedsores, and other conditions.
[0003] The existing technology has the following problems:
[0004] 1. Existing assisted turning equipment for critical care medicine often uses the method of pulling up the bed sheet to turn the patient over. However, when the patient is incontinent, pulling up the bed sheet will cause the patient's body to be covered with feces, thereby increasing the workload of medical staff.
[0005] 2. In the use of existing assisted turning equipment for critical care medicine, patients often move their bodies involuntarily when turning over, which often requires two medical staff to guide the patient's body during actual use. Utility Model Content
[0006] This invention provides a patient turning aid device for use in intensive care units to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0008] A patient-assisted turning device for intensive care unit includes a turning body, a mattress placed at the center of the top of the turning body, and auxiliary components provided on both sides of the outer wall of the turning body. Slots are provided at both ends of the top of the turning body, and baffles are inserted into the inner walls of the slots. Telescopic frames are fixedly connected to both ends of the bottom of the turning body, and universal wheels are rotatably connected to both ends of the telescopic frames.
[0009] A further improvement of the present invention is that the auxiliary component includes support plates installed on both sides of the outer wall of the turning body, and the inner cavity of the support plates is slidably connected to an adjustment frame, and the top of the adjustment frame is fixedly connected to a stabilizing plate. The outer walls of the stabilizing plate are rotatably connected to rotating frames, and a limit rod is fixedly connected between the rotating frames. The two ends of the outer walls of the limit rod are slidably connected to moving blocks, and a handle is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the moving block.
[0010] A further improvement of the present invention is that: a motor is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the outer wall of the moving block, and a rotating rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor; one end of the outer wall of the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the top of the inner cavity of the moving block; an auxiliary bandage is wrapped around the outer wall of the rotating rod; the bottom of the auxiliary bandage is in contact with the surface of the mattress; an insert is installed at the center of the surface of the auxiliary bandage; and a fixing strap is fixedly connected to the top of the insert.
[0011] A further improvement of this utility model is that: the two ends of the surface of the auxiliary bandage are provided with insertion ports, and the inner cavity of the insertion port is in contact with the outer wall of the auxiliary bandage.
[0012] A further improvement of this utility model is that: the two ends of the bottom of the stabilizing plate are rotatably connected to a rotating shaft block, and the inner cavity of the rotating shaft block is slidably connected to an extension rod, while the outer wall of the extension rod is in contact with the surface of the auxiliary bandage.
[0013] A further improvement of the present invention is that: the outer wall of the adjustment frame is provided with a plurality of slots, and the inner wall of the slots is fitted with a card plate, and one end of the outer wall of the card plate penetrates the inner cavity of the support plate.
[0014] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technological progress achieved by this utility model compared to the prior art is as follows:
[0015] 1. This utility model provides a patient-assisted turning device for intensive care units. By pushing the handle to adjust the position of the moving block on the surface of the limiting rod, and then adjusting the rotating shaft blocks set at both ends of the bottom of the stabilizing plate, and pulling the extension rod set in the inner cavity of the rotating shaft block, one end of the extension rod presses against both ends of the auxiliary bandage surface, so that the auxiliary bandage fits against the mattress surface. This not only fixes the position of the auxiliary bandage, but also avoids the patient feeling uncomfortable on the mattress. It further solves the problem that traditional patient-assisted turning devices for intensive care units often use the method of pulling up the bed sheet to turn the patient. However, when the patient is incontinent, pulling up the bed sheet will cause the patient's body to be soiled with feces, thereby increasing the workload of medical staff.
[0016] 2. This utility model provides a patient-assisted turning device for intensive care units. It features an insert block at the center of a fixing strap. When turning the patient, the bottom of the insert block is installed at the center of the surface of the auxiliary bandage, and both ends of the fixing strap are aligned with the patient's thigh. Then, the two ends of the fixing strap are pulled and inserted into the inserts at both ends of the auxiliary bandage surface. A fastening buckle at one end of the fixing strap limits its movement through the inserts, ensuring the patient's thigh is positioned between the auxiliary bandage and the fixing strap. This further solves the problem that traditional intensive care unit patient-assisted turning devices often require two medical staff to guide the patient's body during turning, as the patient's body may move involuntarily.

[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments:
[0025] like Figures 1-6As shown, this utility model provides a patient-assisted turning device for intensive care unit, including a turning body 1. A mattress 2 is placed at the center of the top of the turning body 1, and auxiliary components are provided on both sides of the outer wall of the turning body 1. Slots 3 are opened at both ends of the top of the turning body 1, and baffles 4 are inserted into the inner wall of the slots 3. Telescopic frames 5 are fixedly connected to both ends of the bottom of the turning body 1, and universal wheels 6 are rotatably connected to both ends of the telescopic frames 5. The auxiliary components include support plates 7 installed on both sides of the outer wall of the turning body 1, and adjusting frames 8 are slidably connected to the inner cavity of the support plates 7. The top of the adjusting frames 8 is fixedly connected to a stabilizing device. The stabilizing plate 9 has rotating frames 10 rotatably connected to both sides of its outer wall, and limiting rods 11 are fixedly connected between the rotating frames 10. Moving blocks 12 are slidably connected to both ends of the outer wall of the limiting rods 11, and a handle 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the moving blocks 12. Rotating shaft blocks 20 are rotatably connected to both ends of the bottom of the stabilizing plate 9, and an extension rod 21 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the rotating shaft blocks 20. The outer wall of the extension rod 21 is in contact with the surface of the auxiliary bandage 16. The outer wall of the adjusting frame 8 has several slots 22, and a locking plate 23 is locked into the inner wall of the slots 22. One end of the outer wall of the locking plate 23 penetrates the inner cavity of the support plate 7.
[0026] During operation, the mattress 2 is placed at the center of the top of the turning body 1, and then the baffles 4 are inserted into the slots 3 at both ends of the top of the turning body 1 to complete the assembly of the turning body 1. Telescopic frames 5 are installed at both ends of the bottom of the turning body 1, and casters 6 are installed at both ends of the telescopic frames 5 to facilitate the movement of the patient by medical staff. Support plates 7 are installed on both sides of the outer wall of the turning body 1, and an adjustment frame 8 is installed inside the cavity of the support plate 7. Since the outer wall of the adjustment frame 8 is provided with several slots 22, when the adjustment frame 8 moves to the appropriate position, it pushes the locking plate 23 on one side of the outer wall of the support plate 7, and uses one end of the locking plate 23 to embed into the slot 22 to fix the adjustment frame 8. A stabilizing plate 9 is installed on the top of the adjustment frame 8, and rotating frames 10 are installed on both sides of the outer wall of the stabilizing plate 9. Limiting devices are set between the rotating frames 10. The limit rod 11 is used to limit the movement blocks 12 set at both ends of its outer wall. At this time, the auxiliary bandage 16 is wrapped around the surface of the rotating rod 15 set at the top of the moving block 12, and the bottom of the auxiliary bandage 16 is laid flat on the surface of the mattress 2. When the patient needs to turn over, the handle 13 set on one side of the outer wall of the moving block 12 is pulled outward, so that the moving block 12, together with the limit rod 11 and the rotating frame 10, rotates around the two sides of the outer wall of the stabilizing plate 9 as the center. The tension is used to make the auxiliary bandage 16 use the patient's thigh and shoulder as the fulcrum to create a gap between the patient's body and the mattress 2. Then the motor 14 corresponding to the turning direction is started, so that the motor 14 drives the rotating rod 15 and the auxiliary bandage 16 wrapped around its outer wall to rotate. During this period, the medical staff supports the patient's body with both hands and completes the patient's turning over under the traction of the auxiliary bandage 16.
[0027] It should be further explained that, due to the differences in patients' heights, the position of the moving block 12 on the surface of the limiting rod 11 is adjusted by pushing the handle 13, and then the pivot blocks 20 set at both ends of the bottom of the stabilizing plate 9 are adjusted, and the extension rod 21 set in the inner cavity of the pivot block 20 is pulled, so that one end of the extension rod 21 presses against both ends of the surface of the auxiliary bandage 16, so that the auxiliary bandage 16 fits against the surface of the mattress 2. This not only fixes the position of the auxiliary bandage 16, but also avoids the patient feeling uncomfortable on the mattress 2. This further solves the problem that, in the process of using traditional assisted turning equipment for patients in intensive care units, the bed sheet is often pulled up to turn the patient over. However, when the patient is incontinent, pulling up the bed sheet will cause the patient's body to be soiled with feces, thereby increasing the workload of medical staff.
[0028] A motor 14 is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the outer wall of the movable block 12, and a rotating rod 15 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 14. One end of the outer wall of the rotating rod 15 is rotatably connected to the top of the inner cavity of the movable block 12. An auxiliary bandage 16 is wrapped around the outer wall of the rotating rod 15, and the bottom of the auxiliary bandage 16 is in contact with the surface of the mattress 2. An insert 17 is installed at the center of the surface of the auxiliary bandage 16, and a fixing strap 18 is fixedly connected to the top of the insert 17. Insertions 19 are opened at both ends of the surface of the auxiliary bandage 16, and the inner cavity of the insert 19 is in contact with the outer wall of the auxiliary bandage 16.
[0029] During operation, an insert 17 is set at the center of the fixing strap 18. When the patient needs to be turned over, the bottom of the insert 17 is installed at the center of the surface of the auxiliary bandage 16, and both ends of the fixing strap 18 are aligned with the patient's thighs. Then, the two ends of the fixing strap 18 are pulled and inserted into the inserts 19 set at both ends of the surface of the auxiliary bandage 16. Since one end of the fixing strap 18 is equipped with a fastening buckle (which is existing technology), the fixing strap 18 passing through the insert 19 is limited, and the patient's thigh is positioned between the auxiliary bandage 16 and the fixing strap 18. At this time, the motor 14 set at the top of one side of the outer wall of the moving block 12 is activated, which drives the rotating rod 15 set at the output end to rotate, and the rotating rod 15 tightens and wraps the auxiliary bandage 16, thereby realizing the turning over of the patient. This further solves the problem that in the use of traditional assisted turning equipment for patients in critical care medicine, the patient's body will move involuntarily when turning over, which often requires two medical staff to guide the patient's body in actual use.
[0030] The working principle of the patient turning device used in the intensive care unit will be explained in detail below.
[0031] like Figures 1-6As shown, the assembly of the turning body 1 is completed by placing the mattress 2 at the center of the top of the turning body 1, and then inserting the baffles 4 into the slots 3 at both ends of the top of the turning body 1. Telescopic frames 5 are installed at both ends of the bottom of the turning body 1, and casters 6 are installed at both ends of the telescopic frames 5, facilitating the movement of the patient by medical staff. Support plates 7 are installed on both sides of the outer wall of the turning body 1, and an adjustment frame 8 is installed inside the cavity of the support plate 7. Since the outer wall of the adjustment frame 8 has several slots 22, when the adjustment frame 8 moves to the appropriate position, it pushes the locking plate 23 on one side of the outer wall of the support plate 7, and... The adjusting frame 8 is fixed by inserting one end of the clamping plate 23 into the clamping slot 22. A stabilizing plate 9 is set on the top of the adjusting frame 8, and rotating frames 10 are set on both sides of the outer wall of the stabilizing plate 9. A limiting rod 11 is set between the rotating frames 10, thereby limiting the moving blocks 12 set at both ends of the outer wall. At this time, the auxiliary bandage 16 is wrapped around the surface of the rotating rod 15 set on the top of the moving block 12, and the bottom of the auxiliary bandage 16 is laid flat on the surface of the mattress 2. When the patient needs to turn over, the handle 13 set on one side of the outer wall of the moving block 12 is pulled outward, so that the moving block 12 and the limiting rod are moved together. The rotating frame 10 and the stabilizing plate 9 rotate around the two sides of the outer wall of the stabilizing plate 9, thereby using tension to create a gap between the patient's body and the mattress 2 by using the patient's thighs and shoulders as fulcrums. Then, the motor 14 corresponding to the turning direction is activated, causing the rotating rod 15 and the auxiliary bandage 16 wrapped around its outer wall to rotate. During this process, medical staff use both hands to support the patient's body and complete the patient's turning under the traction of the auxiliary bandage 16. It should be further noted that, due to the difference in patients' heights, the position of the moving block 12 on the surface of the limiting rod 11 can be adjusted by pushing the handle 13. The pivot blocks 20 at both ends of the bottom of the rear stabilizing plate 9 are adjusted, and the extension rod 21 in the inner cavity of the pivot block 20 is pulled, so that one end of the extension rod 21 presses against both ends of the surface of the auxiliary bandage 16, so that the auxiliary bandage 16 fits against the surface of the mattress 2. This not only fixes the position of the auxiliary bandage 16, but also avoids the patient feeling uncomfortable on the mattress 2. This further solves the problem that traditional assisted turning equipment for patients in intensive care units often uses the method of pulling up the bed sheet to turn the patient over. However, when the patient is incontinent, pulling up the bed sheet will cause the patient's body to be soiled with feces, thereby increasing the workload of medical staff.
[0032] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
