Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of patient transfer equipment technology, specifically to a soft-pack arm structure and a transfer machine. Background Technology

[0002] As the population ages, society has an urgent need for medical care and long-term care for the elderly, especially those who are disabled or semi-disabled. Therefore, mobility aids have a large market potential as assistive products for elderly care.

[0003] A patient transfer machine is a tool used to lift patients from chairs, allowing caregivers to push them to the toilet and gently place them on the commode. It can also be used to move patients from chairs to dining chairs or other situations requiring patient transfer. This device typically consists of an electrically powered actuator that drives a robotic arm to lift or lower the patient.

[0004] Currently, most arm padding systems consist of an inner metal frame covered with foam, and an outermost PU leather sleeve. This raises the issue of connecting the soft material (leather and foam) to the metal components. Poor connection can lead to wrinkles in the leather and foam, affecting aesthetics. Furthermore, existing transfer machines typically have detachable safety belts, which are attached during use and removed when not in use. To facilitate belt connection, a safety belt connection structure is usually provided on the arm padding system. However, existing safety belt connection structures are usually fixed to the arm padding structure. When the safety belt is not in use, the connection structure protrudes from the outside of the arm padding system, potentially causing injury to the user's arm. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new arm padding structure to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a flexible arm structure and a transfer machine.

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a soft armrest structure, including an internal metal support frame and a soft material disposed on the outside of the metal support frame.

[0007] Preferably, the connector includes a square movable plate extending vertically, a connecting post connecting the metal support frame and the movable plate laterally, and a locking member connected to the connecting post and located outside the movable plate. A connecting groove extending vertically is opened at the upper end of the movable plate, and a hook hole for connecting the seat belt is opened at the lower end of the movable plate. The movable plate can move up and down relative to the connecting post or the metal support frame.

[0008] Preferably, the locking element is a nut.

[0009] Preferably, the isolation cover is a square box with a notch on the bottom.

[0010] Preferably, the metal support frame includes a square plate-shaped body and folded edges formed around the body on one side facing the thickness direction of the body, wherein the lower folded edge has a clearance opening for the connector to extend or retract and move to avoid it.

[0011] Preferably, the sponge has an opening corresponding to the avoidance position, and the leather sleeve has a zipper corresponding to the avoidance position and the opening position.

[0012] Preferably, the body and all the folded edges are integrally formed.

[0013] Preferably, the folded edge at one end of the body along its length and the sponge and leather sleeve on its outer side together form a mounting surface, and a first connecting hole is provided on the mounting surface for the soft arm structure to be connected to the arm connector.

Detailed Implementation

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.

[0028] The transfer machine (not shown) in this embodiment of the utility model can be a commercially available embracing transfer machine, and its specific structure is not described or limited. This utility model mainly improves the embracing arm soft-padded structure 100 of existing embracing transfer machines. Specifically, the embracing arm soft-padded structure 100 provided in this embodiment of the utility model can be found in [reference needed]. Figures 1 to 7 It mainly includes an internal metal support frame 10 and an external soft material 20. The soft material 20 includes a sponge 21 directly filling the outside of the metal support frame 10 and a leather sleeve 22 (e.g., PU material) sewn around the outside of the sponge 21. The sponge 21 is a shaped sponge 21 that is filled into the outside of the metal support frame 10 using a mold (not shown) to fix its shape. As for the structure of the sponge 21, an example is... Figure 1 As shown, the sponge 21 of this utility model has a structure with a large arc at the top, a small arc at the bottom, and a roughly square shape in the middle. That is, the width at the top is greater than the width at the bottom, resulting in a full and aesthetically pleasing appearance. The processing of the armrest soft pouch structure 100 of this utility model embodiment involves first processing a metal support frame 10 (including a seat belt connecting structure 30), then filling the outside of the metal support frame 10 with the shaped sponge 21 in a mold, and then covering the outer periphery of the shaped sponge 21 with a leather sleeve 22. Next, openings (not shown) are cut at the position of the seat belt connecting structure 30 on both the shaped sponge 21 and the leather sleeve 22, and a zipper (not shown) is provided at the opening on the leather sleeve 22. Since the seatbelt connection structure 30 is first installed on the metal support frame 10, to prevent the seatbelt structure from being affected by the foamed sponge 21 when the sponge 21 is filled into the metal support frame 10 through molding, the seatbelt connection structure 30 of this embodiment includes two parts: one part is an isolation cover 31 that can be fixed relative to the metal support frame 10, and the other part is a connector 32 that is movable relative to the metal support frame 10 and the isolation cover 31 and is located inside the isolation cover 31. The isolation cover 31 is designed to separate the sponge 21 from the connector 32, so that the connector 32 is not fixed and cannot move during the foaming process of the sponge 21. The connector 32 is designed to be movable so that it can be stored back into the isolation cover 31 when the user is not using the seatbelt, solving the problem that the connector 32 may be injured by collision if it is always extended. When the seatbelt needs to be used, the connector 32 can be pulled out through the openings on the sleeve 22 and the sponge 21. In other words, the connector 32 of this utility model embodiment can be extended out of the isolation cover 31 and the soft material 20 (including sponge 21 and leather sleeve 22) under force (pulling force of the hand) to facilitate the connection of the seat belt, or it can be retracted into the soft material 20 and the isolation cover 31 under force (pushing force of the hand) and stored inside the isolation cover 31.

[0029] For connector 32, such as Figures 4 to 6As shown, it includes a movable plate 321, a connecting post 322, and two locking elements 323. The movable plate 321 is a roughly square plate, specifically its length along... Figure 6 The movable plate 321 extends vertically, with a connecting groove 3211 at its upper end and a hooking hole 3212 at its lower end. The exemplary connecting groove 3211 is a slot-shaped elongated hole extending along the length of the movable plate 321, and the hooking hole 3212 is exemplaryly a circular hole. Alternatively, it can be a non-closed hole with an opening on one side, meaning the lower end of the movable plate 321 can be a hook-shaped structure (not shown). The connecting groove 3211 allows the connecting post 322 to pass through, and the hooking hole 3212 allows the seat belt (not shown) to be hooked. The locking member 323 is connected to the connecting post 322 and located on the outside of the movable plate 321. That is, the locking member 323 and the panel of the metal support frame 10 sandwich the movable plate 321 in the middle. To facilitate the movement of the movable plate 321, in this embodiment of the invention, there is a gap between the movable plate 321 and the surface of the metal support frame 10; that is, the locking member 323 is not directly pressed against the movable plate 321. In this embodiment of the utility model, the locking element 323 is exemplarily a conventional nut, and the quantity is exemplarily as follows: Figure 5 The two shown can, of course, be other quantities, such as one. As an alternative embodiment, the locking member 323 can also be other structures well known to those skilled in the art, which are not specifically described or limited, and can be easily understood and implemented by those skilled in the art.

[0030] For the isolation shield 31, a notch 311 is provided at the lower end of the shield 31 to facilitate the extension or retraction of the movable plate 321. As for the shape of the isolation shield 31, exemplarily as shown... Figure 3 and Figure 5 The preferred embodiment is a square box with an open bottom and a hollow interior, which is simple to manufacture and provides a sufficiently large storage space for the retractable movable plate 321.

[0031] For the metal support frame 10, such as Figure 3 As shown, it includes a generally square plate-shaped body 11 and folded edges 12 formed around the body 11, bent in the thickness direction of the body 11 (specifically, the outer side, i.e., the side facing away from the user). The design of the folded edges 12 can increase the contact area between the metal support frame 10 and the sponge 21. The isolation cover 31 is located at the lower end of the body 11, and to facilitate the extension or retraction of the movable plate 321, as shown... Figure 6 As shown, a clearance opening 121 is provided on the lower folded edge 12 along the extension or retraction path of the movable plate 321 to allow the connecting piece 32, specifically the movable plate 321, to extend or retract. Preferably, the body 11 and all folded edges 12 are integrally molded. This simplifies the manufacturing process and reduces the number of steps.

[0032] The arm-mounted soft pouch structure 100 of this utility model embodiment needs to be installed on the mounting plate of the chest pad via the arm-mounted connector 200. Therefore, in the arm-mounted soft pouch structure 100, the folded edge 12 at one end of the body 11 along the length direction and the corresponding sponge 21 and leather sleeve 22 serve as a mounting surface 23. Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a first connecting hole 120 is provided on the mounting surface 23. Figure 4 The example shown is two parts, one above the other. Correspondingly, a second connecting hole (not shown) is opened on the arm connector 200. Fasteners 40, such as bolts, are sequentially inserted into the second connecting hole and the first connecting hole 120 to connect the arm soft package structure 100 and the arm connector 200 together. The specific structure of the arm connector 200 is not described, as it is not an innovation of this utility model.

[0033] The armrest soft-padded structure 100 of this utility model uses a metal support frame 10 as the support structure to support the weight of the human body. The sponge 21 is a shaped sponge 21, which is a soft material 20 that comes into direct contact with the human body, preventing discomfort caused by contact with hard objects. The sponge 21 fills the outside of the metal support frame 10, maintaining a fixed shape and a full, aesthetically pleasing appearance. The seat belt connection structure 30 can extend under force when in use or retract under force when not in use, solving the problem of potential injury from collisions when extended during use. The seat belt connection structure 30 includes an isolation cover 31, which protects the connector 32 from impact when the sponge 21 is filling the structure. The armrest soft-padded structure 100 of this utility model satisfies the product's required load-bearing function, has an aesthetically pleasing and full shape, is easy to assemble, and exhibits high consistency in mass production.

[0034] Other structures of the transfer machine are not described or limited, but can be found in the description of the applicant's previously filed patent application with patent number CN222983305U, entitled "A Foldable Transfer Machine".

[0035] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of this utility model and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be included within its protection scope. Furthermore, the appended claims are intended to cover all variations and modifications falling within the scope and boundaries of the appended claims, or equivalent forms of such scope and boundaries.
