Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nursing equipment technology, and in particular to a head cleaning and care device. Background Technology

[0002] In clinical settings, head washing and care for patients is of paramount importance. On the one hand, some patients are unable to clean their heads independently due to illnesses (such as stroke, fractures, or post-operative recovery). Prolonged neglect of washing can lead to the accumulation of scalp oil, sweat, and dandruff, which can breed bacteria and fungi, increasing the risk of scalp infections (such as folliculitis). Furthermore, the dirt and grime can cause scalp itching, affecting sleep quality and mood. On the other hand, gentle massage during head washing can promote blood circulation in the head and improve local tissue oxygenation. This is especially beneficial for patients who are bedridden for extended periods, relieving muscle stiffness caused by fixed posture and reducing discomfort.

[0003] In existing technologies, traditional bed shampooing methods often use simple shampoo basins and require caregivers to manually rinse the hair with a handheld shower head (such as a rinsing bottle or shower head). This method has significant drawbacks in practical applications: First, it is cumbersome and burdensome for caregivers, as handheld rinsing prevents them from using their hands for massage and washing, resulting in low efficiency. Second, when caregivers are distracted by operating the shower head, water can easily splash onto the neck and face, increasing the workload of post-treatment cleaning. Therefore, we propose a head washing and care device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a head cleaning and care device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A head washing and care device includes a base plate, a water tank fixedly connected to the top of the base plate, two threaded vertical grooves on the top of the water tank, stainless steel threaded rods threaded to the inner walls of the two threaded vertical grooves, a shampoo basin placed on top of the water tank, tapered roller bearings fixedly fitted to the tops of the two stainless steel threaded rods, the outer rings of the two tapered roller bearings fixedly connected to the bottom of the shampoo basin, a hollow support column fixedly connected inside the shampoo basin, a groove on the outer wall of the shampoo basin, an arc-shaped neck plate fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove, a silicone strip fixedly connected to the outer wall of the arc-shaped neck plate, an arc-shaped transparent sheet fixedly connected to the outer wall of the silicone strip, and a washing assembly inside the shampoo basin.

[0007] Preferably, the cleaning assembly includes an arc-shaped tube, and the outer wall of the shampoo basin has two through holes. The two ends of the arc-shaped tube are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two through holes, respectively. The outer wall of the arc-shaped tube has multiple spray holes, and I-shaped rubber sleeves are fixedly fitted on both ends of the arc-shaped tube. The outer walls of the two I-shaped rubber sleeves are pressed against the inner walls of the two through holes, respectively. The I-shaped structure of the I-shaped rubber sleeves can restrict the axial movement of the arc-shaped tube, provide sufficient friction, so that the arc-shaped tube remains in a fixed position when spraying, and can be flexibly adjusted when rotating.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the base plate is fixedly connected to four casters, and the outer wall of the water tank is fixedly connected to a U-shaped handrail. The U-shaped handrail makes it easier for caregivers to grip and exert force, and allows for better control of the direction when pushing the device.

[0009] Preferably, a cross handwheel is fixedly fitted on the outer wall of both stainless steel threaded rods. The cross-shaped design of the handwheel increases the grip contact area, making it easier for caregivers to turn it.

[0010] Preferably, the top of both the arc-shaped neck plate and the support column are fixedly connected with anti-slip rubber pads. The rubber material of the anti-slip rubber pads has good anti-slip properties and can increase the friction between the patient's head and neck and the support components.

[0011] Preferably, the outer wall of the shampoo basin is fixedly connected to a drainage corrugated pipe, and the outer wall of the water tank is fixedly connected to a water injection pipe.

[0012] Preferably, a submersible pump is fixedly connected inside the water tank, and a flexible hose is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the output end of the submersible pump through the outer wall of the water tank. One end of the flexible hose is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the arc-shaped pipe, and the end of the arc-shaped pipe away from the flexible hose is sealed.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0014] This system adjusts the shampoo basin to a comfortable height for the patient by rotating a cross handwheel to raise and lower a stainless steel threaded rod. The patient's head rests on an anti-slip rubber pad on top of the support column, while the neck is fitted with an anti-slip rubber pad on the curved neck plate to prevent the head from sliding. Meanwhile, a silicone strip is secured to the forehead with Velcro, forming a reliable water-blocking structure in conjunction with a curved transparent sheet. This eliminates the need for caregivers to hold the shower head, freeing their hands for massage and auxiliary washing. Furthermore, the curved tube is sealed and rotated using an I-shaped rubber sleeve, allowing for adjustment of the spray direction while preventing leakage. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Depend on Figures 1-4 As shown, a head cleaning and care device is disclosed, including a base plate 1, with a water tank 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. The water tank 2 can store cleaning water and can be easily filled with water with a water inlet pipe to meet the usage needs in scenarios where there is no external water source.

[0023] Four casters 3 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the base plate 1. All four casters 3 are equipped with existing foot pedal brake structures. A U-shaped handrail 4 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the water tank 2. The U-shaped handrail 4 makes it easier for caregivers to hold and exert force, and can better control the direction when pushing the device, so as to avoid the device deviating during movement.

[0024] The top of the water tank 2 has two threaded vertical grooves, and the inner walls of the two threaded vertical grooves are threaded with stainless steel threaded rods 5. When the stainless steel threaded rods 5 rotate, they can move up and down along the vertical grooves. The top is connected to the shampoo basin 8 through a tapered roller bearing 7, which can drive the shampoo basin 8 to achieve height adjustment. The stainless steel material has high strength and corrosion resistance, and is not easily deformed after long-term use.

[0025] Two stainless steel threaded rods 5 are each fixedly fitted with a cross handwheel 6 on their outer walls. A shampoo basin 8 is placed on top of the water tank 2. Tapered roller bearings 7 are fixedly fitted on the tops of the two stainless steel threaded rods 5. The outer rings of the two tapered roller bearings 7 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the shampoo basin 8. A hollow support column 9 is fixedly connected inside the shampoo basin 8. The support column 9 keeps the head in a stable position during washing and prevents the head from directly contacting the bottom of the shampoo basin 8, which could cause discomfort.

[0026] The outer wall of the shampoo basin 8 has a groove, and the inner wall of the groove is fixedly connected to an arc-shaped neck plate 11. The top of the arc-shaped neck plate 11 and the support column 9 are both fixedly connected to anti-slip rubber pads 10. The rubber material of the anti-slip rubber pads 10 has good anti-slip properties, which can increase the friction between the patient's head and neck and the support components, and prevent the head from sliding during the washing process.

[0027] A silicone strip 12 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the curved neck plate 11, and a curved transparent sheet 13 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the silicone strip 12. The silicone strip 12 is made of soft silicone material and has a certain degree of sealing. It can be fixed to the patient's forehead with existing Velcro, and can conform to the contour of the forehead to form the first water barrier. At the same time, it is connected to the curved transparent sheet 13, which combines the water barrier and transparent observation functions, thus preventing water from contacting the forehead.

[0028] The outer wall of the shampoo basin 8 is fixedly connected to a drainage corrugated pipe 17, the outer wall of the water tank 2 is fixedly connected to a water inlet pipe, and the inside of the water tank 2 is fixedly connected to a submersible pump 18. The outer wall of the output end of the submersible pump 18 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the water tank 2 with a flexible hose. The penetration position is sealed, and one end of the flexible hose is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the arc-shaped pipe 14.

[0029] The shampoo basin 8 has a cleaning assembly inside, which includes an arc-shaped tube 14. The outer wall of the shampoo basin 8 has two through holes. The two ends of the arc-shaped tube 14 are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two through holes. The outer wall of the arc-shaped tube 14 has multiple spray holes 15. The multiple spray holes 15 can disperse the clean water in the arc-shaped tube 14 into fine water streams to avoid the water stream from concentrating and impacting the scalp, causing discomfort. Both ends of the arc-shaped tube 14 are fixedly fitted with I-shaped rubber sleeves 16. The outer walls of the two I-shaped rubber sleeves 16 are pressed against the inner walls of the two through holes. The I-shaped structure of the I-shaped rubber sleeves 16 can restrict the axial movement of the arc-shaped tube 14 and provide sufficient friction to keep the arc-shaped tube 14 in a fixed position when spraying, and can be flexibly adjusted when rotating.

[0030] Working principle: When in use, the four casters 3 at the bottom of the base plate 1, together with the U-shaped handle 4 on the outer wall of the water tank 2, can be easily pushed to a suitable nursing position to meet the movement needs in different scenarios; then, an appropriate amount of warm water is injected into the water tank 2 through the water injection pipe on the outer wall of the water tank 2 to complete the water supply preparation.

[0031] Rotate the cross handwheels 6 on the outer wall of the two stainless steel threaded rods 5. Since the stainless steel threaded rods 5 are threadedly connected to the vertical groove on the top of the water tank 2, the stainless steel threaded rods 5 move up and down along the vertical groove when rotated. Since the top of the stainless steel threaded rods 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the shampoo basin 8 through the tapered roller bearing 7, the raising and lowering of the stainless steel threaded rods 5 can drive the shampoo basin 8 to rise and fall until it is adjusted to a height that is comfortable for the patient, so that the patient can put his head into the shampoo basin 8.

[0032] After the patient's head is placed in the shampoo basin 8, the head can be placed on the anti-slip rubber pad 10 on the top of the support column 9. The anti-slip rubber pad 10 can increase the friction between the head and the support column 9, prevent the head from sliding, and improve the comfort of contact. The neck is attached to the outer wall of the curved neck plate 11. The anti-slip rubber pad 10 on the top of the curved neck plate 11 further ensures the stability of the neck. The existing Velcro is installed between the silicone strip 12 and the curved neck plate 11. The silicone strip 12 is fixed to the patient's forehead by the Velcro. The curved transparent sheet 13 facing upward can play a role in blocking water and prevent water from splashing onto the face during the washing process.

[0033] When the cleaning function is activated, the submersible pump 18 inside the water tank 2 starts working, drawing out clean water from the water tank 2 and delivering it to the arc-shaped pipe 14 through a flexible hose that runs through the output end of the submersible pump 18 and through the outer wall of the water tank 2. After entering the arc-shaped pipe 14, the clean water is sprayed out from the spray holes 15 on its outer wall, achieving spray cleaning of the head. Since the two ends of the arc-shaped pipe 14 are rotatably connected to the through holes on the outer wall of the shampoo basin 8 through I-shaped rubber sleeves 16, and the outer wall of the I-shaped rubber sleeves 16 is pressed against the inner wall of the through holes, providing sufficient friction, the arc-shaped pipe 14 can maintain a fixed position during spraying. This ensures the sealing of the arc-shaped pipe 14 when it rotates, preventing water leakage, and also allows the direction of the spray holes 15 to be adjusted by rotating the arc-shaped pipe 14, so that the water flow can cover different areas of the head, improving the comprehensiveness of the cleaning.

[0034] Wastewater generated during the cleaning process will collect in the shampoo basin 8 and eventually be discharged through the corrugated drain pipe 17 fixed and interconnected on the outer wall of the shampoo basin 8.

[0035] It should be noted that, in actual use, an existing PLC controller and a battery can be added. Both the PLC controller and the battery are electrically connected to the submersible pump 18 to facilitate the control of the overall operation.

[0036] All standard parts used in this utility model can be purchased from the market. Irregular parts can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art. In addition, the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here. Furthermore, the structure and principle of the components known to those skilled in the art can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.

[0037] Although embodiments of this application have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this application, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
