Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of fall protection technology, and in particular to a fall protection auxiliary support device for psychiatric patients. Background Technology
[0002] As people age, their physical functions decline, and the incidence of diseases increases. Fall prevention and support devices are needed for psychiatric patients to provide support and prevent falls. However, these devices do not take into account that the elderly are prone to fatigue while walking and may not be able to find a stool to sit down and rest in time, which may lead to falls and reduce the effectiveness of the devices in preventing falls for psychiatric patients.
[0003] A search of related technologies revealed a Chinese patent document (application publication number CN114404234A) for a fall prevention assistive device for elderly psychiatric patients. This device includes a support frame with handrails on both sides and support rods at the bottom. The support rods are equipped with casters for easy movement. A fall prevention component is located between the support rods and the support frame to provide comprehensive protection for the patient. A trigger is located between the fall prevention component and the support rods to activate the component and protect the patient. This fall prevention assistive device for elderly psychiatric patients, through its trigger, can activate the fall prevention component to protect the patient's head and legs if the patient falls while using the toilet due to physical reasons. This can effectively prevent injuries caused by falls during nighttime toilet use. However, this device does not consider the fact that elderly people are prone to fatigue while walking and may not be able to find a stool to sit down and rest in time, leading to falls and reducing the device's fall prevention effect for psychiatric patients.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] This fall-prevention support device for psychiatric patients is designed for elderly individuals who are highly susceptible to psychiatric illnesses. To prevent falls during walking, fall-prevention support devices are necessary. These devices typically consist of a support frame that provides support to psychiatric patients. However, psychiatric patients often tire easily while walking and may not be able to find a stool or sit down to rest. This device allows the fixed plate to rotate around the support rod, enabling the fixed plate to horizontally support a cotton pad. The psychiatric patient can then sit on top of the pad to rest, improving the device's fall-prevention effect. The positioning plate fixes the rotation range of the abutment plate, allowing the fixed plate to rotate only 90 degrees.

[0028] The connection method can be any existing method, such as bonding, welding, or bolting, depending on the actual needs.
[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 6 A fall-prevention and support device for psychiatric patients, in this embodiment, includes:
[0030] Four support plates 1 for preventing falls in psychiatric patients. The bottom and top surfaces of the support plates 1 are respectively connected to support seats 3 for preventing falls and slipping in psychiatric patients and arc-shaped support frames 2. The support seats 3 are made of rubber and have an anti-slip function to enhance the support stability of the device. The support frames 2 are divided into two groups, with the inner arc surfaces of the two support frames 2 in each group arranged inward. The two support frames 2 are provided with handrails 13 for preventing falls in psychiatric patients on adjacent sides. The handrails 13 provide support for psychiatric patients and prevent them from falling while walking.
[0031] A fall prevention and fixation component 4 for psychiatric patients includes a rotating sleeve 5 and a support rod 6. The inner cavity of the rotating sleeve 5 is connected to an arc-shaped positioning plate 7. The inner wall of the positioning plate 7 is slidably connected to the support rod 6. The side of the support rod 6 is connected to an abutment plate 8 for pressing against the positioning plate 7. The two ends of the support rod 6 are connected to the support plate 1. The outer tube surface of the rotating sleeve 5 is connected to a fixing plate 9. A cotton pad 10 is adhered to the top surface of the fixing plate 9. During the rotation of the support rod 6 on the inner ring surface of the positioning plate 7, it drives the abutment plate 8 to rotate 90 degrees, so that the fixing plate 9 is in a vertical or horizontal state.
[0032] The two end faces of the rotating sleeve 5 are in rotational frictional contact with the support plate 1. The four support plates 1 are evenly divided into two groups, and the rotating sleeve 5 is set on the adjacent sides of the two groups of support plates 1. The bottom surface of the fixed plate 9 abuts against two L-shaped connecting brackets 12. When the fixed plate 9 is in a horizontal state, the bottom surface of the fixed plate 9 abuts against the top surface of the two connecting brackets 12, so that the two connecting brackets 12 provide support and fixation for the fixed plate 9. The bottom surface of the rotating sleeve 5 is threaded with a clamping bolt for clamping the support rod 6, and the threaded part of the clamping bolt passes through the positioning plate 7. The end face of the threaded part of the clamping bolt is connected to a rubber block. The clamping force between the rubber block and the support rod 6 is controlled by... The rotation resistance of the rotating sleeve 5 is controlled. The inner walls of the two connecting frames 12 are arranged concentrically. The bottom surface of the connecting frame 12 is connected to the connecting plate 11. The two ends of the connecting plate 11 are connected and fixed to the support plate 1. The handrail assembly 13 includes a rubber sleeve 18 and a positioning sleeve 17. The inner cavity of the rubber sleeve 18 is bonded to the positioning sleeve 17. The inner cavity of the positioning sleeve 17 is connected to the connecting rod 15. The side of the connecting rod 15 is fitted with a positioning ring 16. The inner wall of the positioning sleeve 17 is provided with a circular groove for the positioning ring 16 to rotate. The side of the connecting rod 15 is embedded and fixedly connected to the limiting plate 14. The two ends of the limiting plate 14 are connected and fixed to the support frame 2.
[0033] To prevent psychiatric patients from falling due to fatigue while walking, especially since the elderly are highly susceptible to psychiatric illnesses, the rotating sleeve 5 drives the positioning plate 7 and support rod 6 to rotate relative to each other. During the transmission process, the fixed plate 9 is adjusted from a vertical to a horizontal state. A soft cotton pad 10 is provided on the top surface of the fixed plate 9, allowing psychiatric patients to sit on the bottom of the cotton pad 10 to rest when they are tired from walking, thus enhancing the device's anti-fall effect. When the fixed plate 9 rotates to a horizontal state, the bottom surface of the fixed plate 9 abuts against the top surfaces of the two connecting frames 12, providing support for the fixed plate 9 and enhancing the structural stability of the device's components. The positioning plate 7 is set to fix the abutment plate 8 within the circumferential movement range around the support rod 6, limiting the fixed plate 9's 90-degree rotation around the support rod 6. The tightening bolt drives the rubber block to provide a clamping effect on the support rod 6, preventing the fixed plate 9 from wobbling or shifting when it is in a vertical state, further improving the structural stability of the device's components.
[0034] To prevent psychiatric patients from falling, four support plates 1 are installed to support and fix four support frames 2 and support seats 3, so that the bottom surface of the support seat 3 is in contact with the ground. The rubber material of the support seat 3 provides anti-slip function. Two support frames 2 fix a handrail assembly 13, so that psychiatric patients can hold two handrail assemblies 13. This device provides support for psychiatric patients and prevents them from falling while walking.
[0035] To improve the comfort of using the device, a limiting plate 14 is provided to connect the two support frames 2 and to fix the connecting rod 15. The positioning sleeve 17 can rotate relative to the connecting rod 15, providing conditions for the relative rotation of the rubber sleeve 18 and the connecting rod 15. When a psychiatric patient holds the two rubber sleeves 18, it prevents local twisting and friction between the patient's hand and the rubber sleeve 18 due to changes in the holding angle, and even the formation of blisters on the hand, thus improving the comfort of using the device. The positioning ring 16 is provided to prevent the positioning sleeve 17 from detaching from the connecting rod 15 and to enhance the structural stability of the device's components.
[0036] Working principle
[0037] This psychiatric patient fall prevention and support device allows the user to hold two rubber sleeves 18 with their hands. The connecting rod 15 and positioning ring 16 can rotate relative to the positioning sleeve 17, thus providing conditions for the relative rotation of the connecting rod 15 and the rubber sleeve 18 and preventing the psychiatric patient from rubbing their hands during use.
[0038] When a psychiatric patient becomes tired from walking, the fixation plate 9 can be rotated around the support rod 6 to a horizontal position. The bottom surface of the fixation plate 9 abuts against the bottom surfaces of the two connecting frames 12. The psychiatric patient can sit on the top of the cotton pad 10. The positioning plate 7 fixes the rotation range of the abutment plate 8, so that the abutment plate 8 can only rotate 90 degrees, thereby fixing the rotation range of the fixation plate 9.
