Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of medical auxiliary equipment, and more specifically, to a detachable bed rail monitoring and alarm device. Background Technology

[0002] During hospitalization, rehabilitation, and observation, existing hospital beds typically have bed rails that can be lowered to facilitate patient movement or toileting. Patients can lower the rails themselves or with the assistance of family members or nurses when they need to get out of bed. However, some elderly patients, those with impaired balance, cognitive impairment, or poor communication and cooperation may overestimate their abilities and lower the rails to get out of bed without informing their caregivers. If caregivers do not notice in time, the patient may fall due to impaired balance or lower limb weakness, resulting in varying degrees of injury. Furthermore, to ensure patient safety, nurses need to frequently enter and exit different wards to check if patients have gotten out of bed on their own and to inquire if they need to get out, significantly increasing their workload due to unnecessary back-and-forth movements.

[0003] Existing devices for monitoring the lowering of hospital bed rails, such as those with patent numbers CN202120986994.4 and CN202420641725.8, can all detect whether the bed rails are lowered and issue an alarm if they are. However, these devices all require fixed installation on the bed, which incurs significant costs and time in modifying each bed, resulting in poor flexibility. Furthermore, not every patient in every bed needs the monitoring device, leading to waste. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a more flexible bed rail monitoring device to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a detachable bed rail monitoring and alarm device. When this device is installed on the bed where needed, it can effectively monitor whether the patient in the bed has lowered the bed rail on their own and issue an alarm when the patient does so, thereby preventing the patient from falling. It has the characteristics of easy installation, good monitoring effect and good flexibility.

[0005] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A detachable bed rail monitoring and alarm device includes a fixed frame, on which a limit switch, an alarm, a rechargeable battery, and a rotating rod are mounted. The rotating rod is a hook-shaped rod, with one straight end rotatably connected to the fixed frame via a bearing seat. The hook-shaped end of the rotating rod extends below the limit switch. An extension tube is provided on the outer side of the straight end of the rotating rod, with its inner end slidably connected to the rotating rod. The outer end of the extension tube is sleeved on the outside of the linkage tube that links the bed bottom side rail and the bed rail. Both ends of the extension tube are threaded with anti-screws, which are respectively tightened onto the rotating rod and the linkage tube. When the bed rail is lowered, the hook-shaped end of the rotating rod rotates to a horizontal position and triggers the limit switch. The limit switch is connected to the rechargeable battery and the alarm circuit. A fixing structure is provided on the rear side of the fixed frame for fixing the fixed frame to the bed bottom support.

[0007] Furthermore, the fixing structure includes a pair of U-shaped rods, the front sides of which are fixedly connected to the fixing frame, and the rear sides of which are threaded with anti-screws.

[0008] Furthermore, the inner walls of the pair of U-shaped rods are provided with anti-slip rubber pads.

[0009] Furthermore, the opening distance of the U-shaped rod is greater than the width of the support rod at the bottom of the hospital bed.

[0010] Furthermore, a self-locking switch is installed on the fixed frame, and the limit switch is connected to the alarm circuit through the self-locking switch.

[0011] Furthermore, one end of the linkage tube passes through the bottom side rail of the hospital bed and is fixedly connected to the bed railing, while the other end of the linkage tube extends out of the bottom side rail of the hospital bed.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This utility model discloses a detachable bed rail monitoring and alarm device. It comprises a rotating rod mounted on a fixed frame, consisting of a limit switch, an alarm, a rechargeable battery, and a hook-shaped rod. One straight end of the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the fixed frame via a bearing seat. The hook-shaped end of the rotating rod extends below the limit switch. An extension tube is provided on the outer side of the straight end of the rotating rod.
