Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a sliding sheet for care, which is used to slide people requiring care, such as sick people, injured people, physically disabled people, and elderly people. [Background technology]

[0002] When a person requiring care is unable to move around in bed on their own, the caregiver has to lift or drag them to move them. This not only causes pain to the person requiring care, but also places a heavy physical burden on the caregiver, which can lead to back pain, and often requires the help of two or more people to move the person.

[0003] Therefore, sliding sheets in the form of a cylindrical (endless loop) belt are known, as described in Patent Documents 1 to 4. This sliding sheet becomes a double sheet that overlaps vertically when the cylindrical shape is flattened, and is inserted between the caregiver and the bed to improve the sliding between the double sheets, and the sliding is used to drag the care-requiring person and make it easier to move. This reduces the physical burden on the caregiver to some extent, but the caregiver still needs to apply a considerable amount of force, so further reduction measures are needed.

[0004] In addition to the sliding sheet, a glove 50 for caregiving, as shown in Fig. 7, is also known. The caregiver puts his / her hand into this glove 50 and inserts it between the care recipient and the bed, slightly lifting the care recipient, and moves the care recipient by utilizing the sliding between the glove 50 and the bed. This also reduces the physical burden on the caregiver to some extent, but it requires some strength to lift the care recipient, and there are cases where it is difficult to slide between the glove 50 and the bed, so the caregiver must apply a considerable amount of strength.

[0005] As shown in Fig. 8, with the conventional sliding sheet 40, the caregiver can insert their hands between the double sheets, similar to the glove 50, and move the person requiring care by slightly lifting them up. However, this is not necessarily easy to use, as it is easy for the hands to move between the double sheets, and the contact area between the sheets decreases by the amount of the hands inserted, making it difficult to slide.

[0019] <1> Sliding seat body The material of the sliding sheet body is not particularly limited, but a woven fabric made of fibers with good slipperiness, such as nylon fibers, polyamide fibers, polyester fibers, and fluorine fibers, is preferable. The belt length (total loop length) of the sliding sheet body is not particularly limited, but may be 800 to 2000 mm, for example, and is preferably 1100 to 2000 mm in terms of ease of forming a quadruple sheet portion. The sliding sheet length when the cylindrical shape is flattened is 1 / 2 of the belt length. The width of the sliding sheet body is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, 300 to 1600 mm.

[0020] <2> Gloves The structure of the glove is not particularly limited, but as described above, a glove sheet attached to a sliding sheet body is preferable because it is easy to manufacture. The dimensions of the glove are not particularly limited, but in order to facilitate insertion of the hand and prevent the hand from moving significantly within the glove, it is preferable that the opening width is 130 to 200 mm and the depth is 150 to 400 mm. The material of the glove sheet is not particularly limited, but a woven fabric made of fibers with good slipperiness, such as nylon fibers, polyamide fibers, polyester fibers, and fluorine fibers, is preferable. The means for attaching the glove sheet to the sliding sheet body is not particularly limited, but examples include sewing, welding, adhesion, riveting, and the like.

[0021] <3> Slip-resistant coating The slippery coating is intended to improve the slipperiness of the sliding sheet body, and is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include silicon-based coatings and fluorine-based coatings. EXAMPLES

[0022] A description will be given of a sliding sheet 1 with gloves according to an embodiment shown in Fig. 1 to Fig. 6. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiment, and the shape, dimensions, materials, configuration, etc. of each part can be arbitrarily changed without departing from the spirit of the invention.

[0023] The sliding sheet with gloves 1 is composed of a sliding sheet main body 2 which is a cylindrical (endless loop) band, and gloves 3, 4 (pockets) formed on the sliding sheet main body 2 for the caregiver to insert their hands into.

[0024] The sliding sheet main body 2 is made of nylon fiber taffeta fabric, and is formed by forming a woven fabric with a length of 1200 mm and a width of 600 mm as shown in Figure 2 into a cylindrical shape and sewing both ends together as shown in Figures 1 and 3.

[0025] The gloves 3, 4 include both a belt width direction glove 3 into which the hand is inserted in the belt width direction, and a belt length direction glove 4 into which the hand is inserted in the belt length direction. The belt width direction gloves 3 include a first glove 3a into which a hand is inserted from one side of the belt, and a second glove 3b into which a hand is inserted from the other side of the belt. The belt length direction globe 4 is located at the center of the sliding sheet body 2 in the belt width direction.

[0026] Each of the gloves 3 and 4 has three sides of a rectangular glove sheet 5 sewn with thread to the cylindrical inner surface of the sliding sheet body 2, and the remaining side forms an opening 6. The glove sheet 5 is made of a nylon taffeta fabric. The opening of each of the gloves 3 and 4 is 170 mm wide and 250 mm deep.

[0027] A silicone coating is applied as a slippery coating to the cylindrical inner surface of the sliding sheet main body 2 and the surface of the glove sheet 5. Furthermore, a urethane coating is applied as a waterproof coating to the surface of the sliding sheet main body 2.

[0028] The gloved sliding sheet 1 of the embodiment configured as described above is similar to conventional sliding sheets in that the cylindrical sliding sheet body 2 is flattened to form a double sheet stacked on top of each other, which is inserted between the caregiver and the bed and allows the double sheet to slide between them. However, it is revolutionary in that it is provided with gloves, which allows it to be used by forming a quadruple sheet portion as follows.

[0029] (A) Figure 4 shows the case where the gloved sliding sheet 1 is used by inserting the hand into the glove 3 in the width direction. As shown in the figure (a), the caregiver inserts the hand into the glove 3 in the width direction, folds part of the edge of the sliding sheet main body 2 (double sheet) as shown in (b) to form a quadruple sheet part (see Figure 3 (c)), and inserts it between the care recipient and the bed as shown in (c) to move the care recipient in the length direction of the bed. The quadruple sheet part makes it easy to insert. In addition, the quadruple sheet part has many sliding surfaces in layers and is very easy to slide around in, so the care recipient can be moved easily and only small force is required with the hand.

[0030] (a) Figures 5 and 6 show the case where the gloved sliding sheet 1 is used by inserting the hand into the glove 4 in the belt length direction. As shown in Figure 5(a), the caregiver inserts the hand into the glove 4 in the belt length direction, and as shown in (b), folds a part of the edge of the sliding sheet main body 2 (double sheet) to form a quadruple sheet part, which is inserted between the shoulder of the care recipient and the bed as shown in Figures 6(a) and (b) to move the shoulder of the care recipient in the width direction of the bed. Next, similarly, as shown in (c), the waist of the care recipient is moved in the width direction of the bed. At this time, the quadruple sheet part makes it easy to insert. In addition, the quadruple sheet part has many sliding surfaces in layers and is very easy to slide, so the care recipient can be moved easily and only small force is required.

[0031] According to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained. 1. The sliding sheet body 2 and gloves 3 and 4 are combined. Until now, the sliding sheet and gloves were each needed for different purposes, but now a single sliding sheet 1 can fulfill all of these functions. 2. The sliding sheet body 2 and the gloves 3, 4 are combined, so less force is required compared to conventional gloves, making it easier to use. 3. As described above, by inserting the hand into gloves 3 and 4 and forming the quadruple sheet portion, it becomes easier to insert the hand and reduces frictional resistance when moving or sliding the person in need of care. 4. By attaching the globes 3 and 4 in three directions as described above, a single sliding sheet 1 can be used in a variety of ways. 5. It is possible to move the patient in the supine position in both the length and width directions of the bed, which is particularly effective in moving the patient in the width direction of the bed. 6. Even when changing position from supine to lateral, it is possible to change position with light force, which is very effective. 7. The sliding sheet 1 can be easily inserted into the back part of the body that comes into contact with the bed, and can be slid smoothly from the back to the waist. 8. Improves blood circulation for those requiring care and helps prevent bedsores.

[0032] The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be embodied by making appropriate modifications without departing from the spirit of the invention. [Explanation of symbols]
