Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of incubators, and more particularly to an incubator that facilitates the adjustment of an infant's position. Background Technology

[0002] Infants may adopt various sleeping positions in an incubator, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, as detailed below:

[0003] 1. Supine position: This position keeps the airway clear and makes it easy to observe the newborn's complexion and breathing. The disadvantages are that it increases the risk of spitting up and choking, excessive neck flexion may cause airway obstruction, and prolonged supine position may lead to plagiocephaly.

[0004] 2. Side-lying position: Milk can flow from the corner of the mouth, helping to prevent spitting up and choking. Lying on the right side can reduce pressure on the heart. The disadvantage is that lying on the same side for a long time may lead to asymmetrical head shape and compress major blood vessels, affecting blood circulation.

[0005] 3. Lie face down with your head turned to one side to prevent obstruction of your mouth and nose. This can promote lung expansion and improve respiratory function.

[0006] 4. Semi-recumbent position, where the back is raised 30° to 45°. This can promote gastrointestinal motility and the secretion of digestive juices, which is beneficial for digestion. However, it is not recommended to maintain a semi-recumbent position for a long time while sleeping, as this may affect the normal development of the spine.

[0007] The incubator contains a baby lying table, usually made by rolling up blankets or swaddles into long strips and placing them in a circle on the table to form a "nest." The baby lies in this "nest," simulating the environment of the mother's womb and meeting the newborn's psychological needs. The baby is usually in a supine position in the "nest." If a side-lying position is needed, a pad or pillow is placed on one side of the "nest" as a back support, with the baby resting against it. If a prone position is needed, a pad or pillow is placed at one end of the "nest" as a prone support, with the baby's head or head and chest resting on it. If a semi-reclining position is needed, a pad or pillow is placed at one end of the "nest" as a back support, with the baby resting against it.

[0008] The above method has some drawbacks. First, the "bird's nest," back support, and prone support are not fixed in place and can easily slide on the baby's lying table, resulting in incorrect positioning and rendering them ineffective. Second, when placing the "bird's nest," back support, and prone support, the baby needs to be moved to make room. Since the space inside the incubator is limited, it is often necessary to take the baby out of the incubator, wait for the "bird's nest," back support, and prone support to be placed, and then put the baby back in. Leaving the baby outside the incubator may be detrimental to the baby's recovery and health. Utility Model Content

[0009] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an incubator that makes it easy to adjust the baby's position and prevents the positioning aids from shifting.

[0010] The technical solution adopted to solve the above problems is as follows: An incubator that facilitates infant repositioning includes an incubator bottom and an incubator cover, the cover being connected to the bottom. The bottom of the incubator has an infant reclining platform located inside the cover. It also includes a Velcro-covered plush mat, an infant pad, a lifting mechanism, and multiple positioning assist airbags. The Velcro-covered plush mat is placed on and connected to the infant reclining platform. The positioning assist airbags have Velcro hook pads; some airbags are attached to the Velcro-covered plush mat using these hook pads, while the remaining airbags are spares. Different positioning assist airbags can assist the infant in adopting different sleeping positions. The infant pad covers the Velcro-covered plush mat and the positioning assist airbags. The lifting mechanism is installed on the top of the incubator cover and can lift the infant pad.

[0011] Furthermore, a positioning assist airbag is a rectangular airbag, which includes a long side segment and a short side segment.

[0012] Furthermore, one of the positioning assist airbags is a lateral recumbent assist airbag, and the shape of the lateral recumbent assist airbag is a right-angled triangle; when the infant adopts the lateral recumbent position, the square-shaped airbag and the lateral recumbent assist airbag are respectively fixed to the Velcro velvet pad by Velcro hook pads, the lateral recumbent assist airbag is located inside the square-shaped airbag, the lateral recumbent assist airbag is set in the same direction as the long side segment, the lateral recumbent assist airbag is close to one long side segment, and the sloping surface of the lateral recumbent assist airbag faces the other long side segment.

[0013] Furthermore, one of the positioning assist airbags is a prone airbag; when the infant adopts the prone position, the square airbag and the prone airbag are respectively fixed to the Velcro velvet pad by Velcro hooks, the prone airbag is located inside the square airbag, and the prone airbag is set in the same direction as the short side and close to one of the short side.

[0014] Furthermore, the two positioning assist airbags are a semi-recumbent back airbag and a semi-recumbent anti-slip airbag. The semi-recumbent back airbag is shaped like a right-angled triangle. When the infant is in a semi-recumbent position, the square airbag, the semi-recumbent back airbag, and the semi-recumbent anti-slip airbag are respectively attached to the Velcro velvet pad with Velcro hooks. The semi-recumbent back airbag and the semi-recumbent anti-slip airbag are located inside the square airbag and are set in the same direction as the short side. The semi-recumbent back airbag is close to one short side, and the sloping surface of the semi-recumbent back airbag faces the other short side. The semi-recumbent anti-slip airbag is located in front of the sloping surface of the semi-recumbent back airbag.

[0015] Furthermore, the baby pad is rectangular in shape and has four hanging holes at its four corners; the lifting mechanism includes a drive mechanism and a suspension structure, the suspension structure includes a rectangular frame and four hooks, the four hooks are respectively connected to the four corners of the rectangular frame, and the drive mechanism can drive the suspension structure to move up and down.

[0016] Furthermore, there are four drive mechanisms, which are respectively set at the four corners of the rectangular frame. The drive mechanism includes an electric telescopic cylinder, a pulley, and a pull rope. The electric telescopic cylinder and the pulley are fixed above the incubator cover. The pull rope goes around the pulley, one end of the pull rope is connected to the electric telescopic cylinder, and the other end of the pull rope passes through the incubator cover and is connected to the rectangular frame.

[0017] Furthermore, the incubator that facilitates the adjustment of the baby's position includes a top cover, which is connected to the incubator cover and covers the drive mechanism.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: When using this invention, the baby's position-assisting airbag is selected and attached to the Velcro plush pad according to the baby's desired position. Then, the baby pad is placed on top, and the baby is placed on the baby pad. The position-assisting airbag helps the baby maintain the desired sleeping position. When the baby needs to change sleeping position, the baby pad is lifted using the lifting mechanism, and the baby lying on the baby pad is also lifted. Then, the position-assisting airbag is replaced.

[0019] In this way, the positioning assistive airbags are firmly attached and fixed, preventing them from shifting and becoming ineffective, which helps the infant maintain the required position for an extended period. During the replacement of the positioning assistive airbags, the infant is not removed from the incubator, avoiding the adverse effects of leaving the incubator and promoting the infant's recovery.

[0032] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the incubator for facilitating infant repositioning includes an incubator bottom 1 and an incubator cover 2, with the cover 2 connected to the bottom 1. The bottom 1 has an infant reclining platform 11 located inside the cover 2. It also includes a Velcro velvet mat 3, an infant pad 6, a lifting mechanism 5, and multiple positioning assist airbags 4. The Velcro velvet mat 3 is placed on and connected to the infant reclining platform 11. The positioning assist airbags 4 have Velcro hook pads 8; some airbags 4 are attached to the Velcro velvet mat 3 via the hook pads 8, while the remaining airbags 4 are spares. Different airbags 4 can assist the infant in adopting different sleeping positions. The infant pad 6 covers the Velcro velvet mat 3 and the positioning assist airbags 4. The lifting mechanism 5 is installed on the top of the cover 2 and can lift the infant pad 6.

[0034] In use, the positioning assist airbag 4 is attached to the Velcro plush pad 3 according to the baby's desired position, then the baby pad 6 is placed on top, and the baby is placed on the baby pad 6. The positioning assist airbag 4 helps the baby maintain the desired sleeping position. When the baby needs to change sleeping position, the baby pad 6 is lifted using the lifting mechanism 5, and the baby lying on the baby pad 6 is also lifted. Then the positioning assist airbag 4 is replaced.

[0035] In this way, the positioning assistive airbags 4 are firmly attached and fixed, preventing them from shifting and becoming ineffective, which helps the infant maintain the required position for an extended period. During the replacement of the positioning assistive airbags 4, the infant is not removed from the incubator, avoiding the adverse effects of leaving the incubator and promoting the infant's recovery.

[0036] The incubator bottom 1 and incubator cover 2 are the same as existing technology. Velcro is a common item in daily life, including hook and loop fasteners and loop fastener fleece; both the loop fastener pad 3 and the hook and loop fastener pad 8 utilize existing technology.

[0037] As described in the background section, infants may be placed in supine, lateral, prone, or semi-recumbent positions within the incubator. The position-assisting airbag 4 is configured accordingly.

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, a positioning assistive airbag 4 is a rectangular airbag 41, which includes a long side segment 411 and a short side segment 412. The rectangular airbag 41 forms a "bird's nest" as shown in the background art. The infant lies in it, usually in a supine position.

[0039] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, one of the positioning assist airbags 4 is a side-lying assist airbag 42, which is a right-angled triangle. When the infant is in a side-lying position, the rectangular airbag 41 and the side-lying assist airbag 42 are respectively attached to the Velcro lining pad 3 using Velcro hook pads 8. The side-lying assist airbag 42 is located inside the rectangular airbag 41, and is positioned in the same direction as the long side segment 411. The side-lying assist airbag 42 is closer to one long side segment 411, and its sloping surface faces the other long side segment 411. The side-lying assist airbag 42 is used to support the infant's back to assist in side-lying. The side-lying assist airbag 42 is suitable for both left and right side-lying positions.

[0040] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, one of the positional assist airbags 4 is a prone airbag 43. When the infant adopts a prone position, the rectangular airbag 41 and the prone airbag 43 are respectively attached to the Velcro pad 3 using Velcro hook pads 8. The prone airbag 43 is located inside the rectangular airbag 41, and the prone airbag 43 is positioned in the same direction as and close to one of the short side segments 412. The infant's head or head and chest are placed on the prone airbag 43, which assists the infant in lying prone.

[0041] like Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the two positioning assist airbags 4 are a semi-recumbent back airbag 44 and a semi-recumbent anti-slip airbag 45. The semi-recumbent back airbag 44 is shaped like a right-angled triangle. When the infant adopts a semi-recumbent position, the rectangular airbag 41, the semi-recumbent back airbag 44, and the semi-recumbent anti-slip airbag 45 are respectively attached to the Velcro closure pad 3 using Velcro hook pads 8. The semi-recumbent back airbag 44 and the semi-recumbent anti-slip airbag 45 are located inside the rectangular airbag 41 and are positioned in the same direction as the short side segment 412. The semi-recumbent back airbag 44 is close to one short side segment 412, and the sloping surface of the semi-recumbent back airbag 44 faces the other short side segment 412. The semi-recumbent anti-slip airbag 45 is located in front of the sloping surface of the semi-recumbent back airbag 44. The infant's back rests against the semi-recumbent back airbag 44, the buttocks are between the semi-recumbent back airbag 44 and the semi-recumbent anti-slip airbag 45, and the legs are slightly raised and resting on the semi-recumbent anti-slip airbag 45. The semi-reclining anti-slip airbag 45 is designed to prevent infants from slipping.

[0042] like Figures 9 to 11 The baby mat 6 functions like a mattress, and its structure is basically the same as existing mattresses. The specific structure of the baby mat 6 and the lifting mechanism 5 can be as follows: The baby mat 6 is rectangular in shape, with four hanging holes 61 at its four corners; the lifting mechanism 5 includes a drive mechanism 52 and a suspension structure 51. The suspension structure 51 includes a rectangular frame 511 and four hooks 512, which are respectively connected to the four corners of the rectangular frame 511. The drive mechanism 52 can drive the suspension structure 51 to move up and down. There are four drive mechanisms 52, each corresponding to one of the four corners of the rectangular frame 511; the drive mechanism 52 includes an electric telescopic cylinder 521, a pulley 522, and a pull rope 523. The electric telescopic cylinder 521 and the pulley 522 are fixed above the incubator cover 2. The pull rope 523 passes around the pulley 522, with one end connected to the electric telescopic cylinder 521 and the other end passing through the incubator cover 2 and connected to the rectangular frame 511.

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, when the lifting mechanism 5 lifts the baby pad 6, the middle of the baby pad 6 is concave to prevent the baby from slipping out. The electric telescopic cylinder 521 pulls or releases the pull rope 523, which moves the suspension structure 51 and the baby pad 6 up and down. The telescopic speed of the electric telescopic cylinder 521 should be relatively slow, so that the baby is lifted and lowered slowly. Care should be taken to observe the baby during lifting and lowering to prevent injury. Ordinary cotton rope can be used for the pull rope 523. The incubator cover 2 should have a small hole through which the pull rope 523 passes.

[0044] Furthermore, the preferred incubator for easy adjustment of the infant's position includes a top cover 7, which is connected to the incubator cover 2 and covers the drive mechanism 52. The top cover 7 also covers the small hole through which the pull cord 523 passes, so that the top of the incubator cover 2 remains closed.
