Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical supplies technology, specifically a postoperative patient support device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of modern medicine, postoperative rehabilitation is a crucial step in promoting the recovery of bodily functions and improving quality of life. Taking urological patients as an example, after undergoing treatments such as bladder tumor removal or prostatectomy, patients usually need to get out of bed and move around within a short period of time after surgery to prevent complications such as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary infection, and to accelerate the recovery process. However, these patients face numerous challenges in the early postoperative period. Due to surgical trauma, the effects of anesthesia, and the body's postoperative stress response, patients commonly experience weakness, limb fatigue, and poor balance. This is especially true for patients who have undergone urinary tract catheterization, as the presence of the drainage tube not only restricts their freedom of movement but also increases the risk of accidental dislodgement. When patients attempt to stand up independently, insufficient lower limb strength makes them highly susceptible to instability and falls, which can lead to secondary injuries, increased patient suffering and financial burden, and hinder subsequent rehabilitation. Currently, commonly used assistive devices in clinical practice, such as ordinary walking aids and crutches, while providing some support, cannot meet the specific needs of postoperative patients, especially those with intubation. Ordinary walking aids have a fixed height, making it difficult to adjust flexibly according to individual patient differences, and lack proper fixation and protection measures for drainage tubes in intubated patients. Crutches, on the other hand, require a high level of upper limb strength and balance, posing significant safety risks for extremely weak postoperative patients. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a lifting and support device specifically designed for postoperative intubated patients to address the safety and convenience issues they face during their recovery process. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, a postoperative patient support device is provided, which aims to solve the problem of height adjustment, adapt to the usage needs of different patients, maintain the patient's balance, and fix urine bags or other drainage bags.

[0004] To achieve the above and other related objectives, this utility model proposes a postoperative patient support device, comprising: The bottom movable frame can be placed on the ground and moved in any direction on the ground, and is positioned around the front of the patient; A height adjustment bracket is mounted on the bottom movable bracket; A height adjustment mechanism is provided between the bottom movable frame and the height adjustment frame, and the height adjustment mechanism is used to adjust the height of the height adjustment frame; An underarm support frame, mounted on the height-adjustable frame, provides support for the patient's underarms; A hanging rack, installed on the height-adjustable frame, is used to hold the patient's indwelling bag.

[0005] In one embodiment of the present invention, an elastic element is provided between the underarm support frame and the height adjustment frame, the elastic element being used to provide elastic support for the underarm support frame in the vertical direction.

[0006] In one embodiment of the present invention, the bottom movable frame includes at least two sets of movable unit frames, one end of the two sets of movable unit frames is hinged and the hinge axis is arranged vertically, and the height adjustment frame includes at least two sets of unit adjustment frames, one end of the two sets of unit adjustment frames is hinged and the hinge axis is arranged vertically, and the hinge axis of the movable unit frame is coaxial with the hinge axis of the unit adjustment frame.

[0007] In one embodiment of this utility model, a locking unit is provided on the hinge shaft of the two sets of movable unit frames. The locking unit is used to lock or unlock the hinge shaft of the two sets of movable unit frames. The locking unit includes a locking handle. One end of the locking handle is connected to a threaded hole on the hinge shaft of the two sets of movable unit frames. A first locking disc is provided on the locking handle, and a second locking disc is provided on one set of the movable unit frames. The first locking disc and the second locking disc are engaged or disengaged.

[0008] In one embodiment of this utility model, the two sets of movable unit frames are generally in the shape of arc plates, and the outlines of the two sets of unit adjustment frames are consistent with the outlines of the two sets of movable unit frames.

[0009] In one embodiment of this utility model, the height adjustment mechanism includes a vertical adjustment rod. The lower end of the vertical adjustment rod is fixed at a position away from the hinge shaft of the movable unit frame. An adjustment nut sleeve is rotatably provided at the upper end of the vertical adjustment rod. An adjustment threaded rod is provided at the hinge shaft end away from the unit adjustment frame. The adjustment threaded rod is vertical and cooperates with the adjustment nut sleeve.

[0010] In one embodiment of the present invention, a guide tube and a guide rod are provided between the movable unit frame and the unit adjustment frame near one end, and the guide rod is vertical and passes through the guide tube.

[0011] In one embodiment of this utility model, the underarm support frame is generally arc-shaped, the elastic element is a spring, and the upper and lower ends of the elastic element abut against the underarm support frame and the unit adjustment frame, respectively. The position of the underarm support frame on the unit adjustment frame is adjustable.

[0012] In one embodiment of this utility model, the unit adjustment frame is provided with a strip-shaped hole, the underarm support frame is provided with a through rod, the end of the through rod passing through the strip-shaped hole is provided with a locking nut, and the elastic element is sleeved on the through rod.

[0013] In one embodiment of this utility model, a horizontal slide rail is provided at the upper end of the through rod, and a slider is provided on the underarm support frame, the slider being slidably disposed on the horizontal slide rail.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the technical effect of this utility model is as follows: The bottom movable frame can move flexibly in any direction on the ground, following the patient's movements and providing a stable yet flexible support range. The design, positioned in front of the patient, creates a reliable protective area to prevent accidental falls, while not restricting limb movement, facilitating rehabilitation training and daily activities within the device, effectively enhancing the patient's autonomy and convenience. The combination of the height adjustment mechanism and the height adjustment frame allows for precise height adjustment based on individual patient differences and varying recovery stages. Whether patients are of different heights or in different recovery phases (early, middle, etc.), they can find a comfortable and stable support height through adjustment. This ensures the underarm support fits snugly under the patient's armpit, distributing body weight, reducing the burden on the lower limbs, and lowering the risk of muscle strain and joint damage due to improper support, thus improving patient comfort and safety. The underarm support acts directly under the patient's armpit, providing stable and strong support to help the patient maintain balance while standing and walking. For postoperative patients who are weak or have limb weakness, this support effectively compensates for their lack of self-support, significantly reducing the likelihood of falls and safeguarding their rehabilitation activities. The hanging bracket is specifically designed to hold patient indwelling bags. Its rational installation position and structural design ensure stable hanging of the bag, avoiding the risk of dislodgement due to shaking or pulling, while also allowing patients to easily observe the fluid status within the bag, facilitating nursing procedures for medical staff. Furthermore, the integrated design of the hanging bracket and the overall device eliminates the inconvenience of hanging the bag separately, allowing patients to move around without worrying about bag placement, further enhancing the patient experience.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. This utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this utility model.

[0018] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in this embodiment are only schematic representations of the basic concept of this utility model. Therefore, the drawings only show the components related to this utility model and are not drawn according to the actual number, shape and size of the components. In actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.

[0019] Commonly used assistive devices in clinical practice, such as ordinary walking aids and crutches, can provide support to some extent, but they cannot meet the special needs of postoperative patients, especially those with intubation. Ordinary walking aids have a fixed height, making it difficult to adjust flexibly according to individual patient differences, and they lack proper fixation and protection measures for drainage tubes in intubated patients. Crutches, on the other hand, require a high level of upper limb strength and balance, posing significant safety risks for extremely weak postoperative patients. To address this, a postoperative patient lifting support device is proposed, comprising: a base movable frame 10, which is placed on the ground and can move in any direction on the ground, surrounding the front of the patient; a height-adjustable frame 20, mounted on the base movable frame 10; a height-adjusting mechanism is provided between the base movable frame 10 and the height-adjustable frame 20 for adjusting the height of the height-adjustable frame 20; an axillary support frame 30, mounted on the height-adjustable frame 20, for supporting the patient's armpits; and a hanging frame 40, mounted on the height-adjustable frame 20, for placing the patient's indwelling bag.

[0020] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 3 The underarm support frame 30 can be placed under the patient's armpit to provide support and act as a crutch. The height of the underarm support frame 30 can be adjusted by medical staff through the height adjustment mechanism to adapt to the use of different patients, so that the patient can move in an upright position and avoid problems such as slumped shoulders or spinal curvature.

[0021] In one embodiment, the hanger 40 is also provided with hooks to fix the patient's IV bag, and the hooks on the hanger 40 are height-adjustable to meet the needs of use at different heights.

[0022] In one embodiment, when the underarm support frame 30 provides underarm support to the patient, the entire device can be dragged across the floor as the patient walks, thus serving as a human body support.

[0023] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 3 An elastic element 50 is provided between the underarm support frame 30 and the height adjustment frame 20. The elastic element 50 is used to provide elastic support for the underarm support frame 30 in the vertical direction.

[0024] In the above embodiments, the elastic element 50 installed between the axillary support frame 30 and the height adjustment frame 20 in the postoperative patient support device greatly optimizes the support performance of the device and brings significant technical benefits. When the patient stands or walks with the axillary support frame 30, the elastic element 50 can sense the subtle movements and force changes of the patient's body in real time and provide flexible elastic support along the vertical direction. This elastic support can effectively buffer the impact force of the patient's body on the support frame, avoid the local pressure pain in the armpit that may be caused by traditional rigid support, and significantly improve the patient's comfort during use. Moreover, for postoperative patients who are extremely weak and have poor muscle control, even slight imbalances or swaying of body posture during standing or walking can lead to significant impacts. The elastic element 50, through its own elastic deformation, can absorb and dissipate these impact energies in a timely manner, reduce the amplitude of the patient's body sway, help the patient maintain better body balance, reduce the risk of falls caused by inertia or accidental movements, and provide a safer rehabilitation support environment for the patient.

[0025] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 3 To enable the entire device to be opened or closed to adapt to different usage needs, the bottom movable frame 10 includes at least two sets of movable unit frames 11 and three sets of universal wheels 16. The three sets of universal wheels 16 form an isosceles triangle structure. One end of the two sets of movable unit frames 11 is hinged and the hinge axis is arranged vertically. The height adjustment frame 20 includes at least two sets of unit adjustment frames 21. One end of the two sets of unit adjustment frames 21 is hinged and the hinge axis is arranged vertically. The hinge axis of the movable unit frame 11 and the hinge axis of the unit adjustment frame 21 are arranged coaxially.

[0026] In one embodiment, two sets of the three sets of casters 16 are respectively mounted on two sets of movable unit frames 11, and the other set of casters 16 is mounted on the hinge axis of the movable unit frame 11, which can achieve stable support for the entire device. In the above embodiment, the two sets of unit adjustment frames 21 of the height adjustment frame are also vertically hinged at one end, and their hinge axes are arranged coaxially. This design allows the device to be flexibly folded and stored. When not in use, the movable unit frame 11 and the unit adjustment frame 21 can be rotated and folded around the hinge axis, effectively reducing the space occupied by the device and facilitating storage and transportation. It is especially suitable for scenarios with limited space, such as wards and homes, and improves the space utilization rate of the device.

[0027] In one embodiment, see Figure 5The two sets of movable unit frames 11 are provided with locking units on their hinge shafts. The locking units are used to lock or unlock the hinge shafts of the two sets of movable unit frames 11. The locking unit includes a locking handle 12. One end of the locking handle 12 is connected to a threaded hole on the hinge shaft of the two sets of movable unit frames 11. The locking handle 12 is provided with a first locking disc 121. One set of movable unit frames 11 is provided with a second locking disc 111. The first locking disc 121 and the second locking disc 111 are engaged or disengaged.

[0028] In one embodiment, the two sets of movable unit frames 11 are generally arc-shaped plates, and the outlines of the two sets of unit adjustment frames 21 are consistent with the outlines of the two sets of movable unit frames 11.

[0029] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The height adjustment mechanism includes a vertical adjustment rod 13. The lower end of the vertical adjustment rod 13 is fixed at a position away from the hinge shaft of the movable unit frame 11. An adjustment nut sleeve 131 is rotatably provided at the upper end of the vertical adjustment rod 13. An adjustment threaded rod 14 is provided at the hinge shaft of the unit adjustment frame 21. The adjustment threaded rod 14 is vertical and cooperates with the adjustment nut sleeve 131.

[0030] In the above embodiment, the lower end of the vertical adjusting rod 13 is fixed to the end of the movable unit frame 11 away from the hinge axis, and the upper end is rotatably equipped with an adjusting nut sleeve 131. Together with the vertically positioned adjusting threaded rod 14 that matches the adjusting nut sleeve 131, a simple and efficient height adjustment system is formed. Medical staff or patients only need to rotate the adjusting nut sleeve 131, and through the threaded transmission principle, the height adjustment frame 30 can be easily raised and lowered without complicated tools or cumbersome operations, greatly improving the convenience of height adjustment. For patients with limited physical strength after surgery, this simple operation method reduces the difficulty of use, allowing patients to adjust the device height at any time according to their own needs.

[0031] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 To guide the distance between the mobile unit frame 11 and the unit adjustment frame 21, a guide tube 15 and a guide rod 151 are provided between the mobile unit frame 11 and the unit adjustment frame 21 near one end. The guide rod 151 is vertical and passes through the guide tube 15.

[0032] In one embodiment, the underarm support frame 30 is generally arc-shaped, the elastic element 50 is a spring, and the upper and lower ends of the elastic element 50 abut against the underarm support frame 30 and the unit adjustment frame 21 respectively. The position of the underarm support frame 30 on the unit adjustment frame 21 is adjustable.

[0033] In one embodiment, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 The unit adjustment frame 21 is provided with a strip-shaped hole 211, the underarm support frame 30 is provided with a through rod 31, the rod end of the through rod 31 passing through the strip-shaped hole 211 is provided with a locking nut 311, and the elastic element 50 is sleeved on the through rod 31.

[0034] In the above embodiments, the arc-shaped design of the axillary support frame 30, the application of the spring elastic element 50, and the position-adjustable structure work together to form a highly humanized and functional support system, bringing multi-dimensional technical advantages to postoperative patients. Furthermore, soft sponges can be applied to the axillary support frame 30, which can significantly improve the comfort of axillary support for patients.

[0035] The adjustable position of the axillary support frame 30 on the unit adjustment frame 21 is achieved through the cooperation of the strip hole 211, the through rod 31, and the locking nut 311. Patients can flexibly adjust the installation position of the axillary support frame according to their body shape and rehabilitation training needs, ensuring that the support frame accurately fits the optimal support point under the armpit, providing more personalized support services. Whether the patient is tall or petite, or whose physical condition changes during rehabilitation, they can find the most comfortable and stable support method through adjustment, further improving the applicability and versatility of the device. Simultaneously, the spring sleeve on the through rod 31 maintains the continuity of the elastic support function when adjusting the position of the axillary support frame 30, avoiding interruption of support performance due to adjustment, and always providing reliable elastic cushioning protection for the patient. In one embodiment, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 The upper end of the through rod 31 is provided with a horizontal slide rail 312, and the underarm support frame 30 is provided with a slider 301. The slider 301 is slidably disposed on the horizontal slide rail 312, and the upper end of the through rod 31 is in rotational engagement with the underarm support frame 30.

[0036] The horizontal slide rail 312 and slider 301 structure make the underarm support frame 30 more convenient to adjust. Patients can actively adjust the horizontal position of the underarm support frame 30 according to their own body width and arm swing habits to achieve personalized adaptation. For example, patients with wider shoulders can move the support frame outward appropriately, while patients who need to perform rehabilitation training in a specific direction can also adjust the position of the support frame to obtain a more favorable support angle, thereby effectively improving the device's adaptability to diverse patient groups and complex rehabilitation scenarios.

[0037] In one embodiment, the hanger 40 is mounted on a telescopic rod, which is vertical and is a common telescopic rod construction. The hanger 40 is provided with multiple sets of hooks, which are placed on both sides of the height adjustment frame 20. According to the patient's usage needs, indwelling bags such as urine bags can be hung on the hooks at the lower position of the hanger 40, while infusion bottles or infusion bags can be hung on the hooks at the upper position of the hanger 40.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and an explanation of the technical principles used. Those skilled in the art should understand that the scope involved in this application is not limited to the technical solutions formed by a specific combination of the above technical features, but should also cover other technical solutions formed by any combination of the above technical features or their equivalent features without departing from the inventive concept.
