[0035] As shown in the drawing, the pediatric medical bed (10) with improved structural stability of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as a medical bed for convenience of explanation) is a pediatric medical bed (10) that treats a child and prevents the child from being dislodged to the outside, and the medical bed (10) is composed of a base portion (20), a fixed fence portion (30), a guide support portion (40), and a folding fence portion (50).
[0036] The above base part (20) is composed of a base panel and casters formed on the bottom surface of the base panel.
[0037] The above base panel can be formed into a panel structure, or can also be formed into a frame structure.
[0038] It is also possible to form additional support legs on the bottom surface of the above base panel.
[0039] It is desirable to further place a cushion pad on the upper surface of the above base panel as shown in the drawing.
[0040] The above fixed fence part (30) is composed of a front panel (31) and a rear panel (32) formed on the base part (20).
[0041] In addition, a horizontal guide bar fitting portion (32a) may be formed on the rear panel (32). When the horizontal guide bar (53) rotates upward, it can be fitted into the horizontal guide bar fitting portion (32a). By this fitting, the horizontal guide bar (53) is fixed to the horizontal guide bar fitting portion (32a), thereby further improving structural stability.
[0042] The front panel (31) is fixed by screwing the lower part to one side of the base panel, and the rear panel (32) is fixed by screwing the lower part to the other side.
[0043] The above front panel (31) and the above rear panel (32) can also be formed into a frame structure.
[0044] The above guide support part (40) is provided on both sides of the base part (20).
[0045] The above guide support member (40) is composed of a fixed frame (41) having a fixed “ㄷ” shaped tubular structure whose upper part is fixed by screw fastening to the bottom surface of the base panel of the base member (20), and a rail frame (42) that is fixed by screw fastening to the front part of the fixed frame (41) and supports the folding fence member (50).
[0046] The above rail frame (42) is formed of metal or synthetic resin and is formed into a square tube structure.
[0047] The above folding fence part (50) is provided on the guide support part (40).
[0048] The above folding fence part (50) is composed of a rail fixing part (51) formed of rail brackets (511) provided on the rail frame (42) of the guide support part (40), a rotary support bar (52) whose lower end is hingedly connected to the rail bracket (511) of the rail fixing part (51), and a horizontal guide bar (53) whose upper end is hingedly connected to the rotary support bar (52) so as to rotate.
[0049] For reference, in the present invention, a cap (not shown) may be fitted and installed at the end of the rotary support bar (52), and the cap may be formed of a synthetic resin material. Since the rotary support bar (52) in the present invention may be formed of a metal material, the cap made of the synthetic resin material protects the end of the rotary support bar (52) while providing reduced friction to enable easy rotation.
[0050] The above rail brackets (511) are arranged at a certain interval on the upper surface of the rail frame (42).
[0051] The above rail bracket (511) is fixed to the rail frame (42) by screwing it.
[0052] The above rail bracket (511) is formed integrally with a base connection panel (511a) and a bracket member (511b) that is hinged to allow the lower portion of the rotary support bar (52) to rotate.
[0053] That is, the above folding fence part (50) maintains the rotating support bar (52) in a vertically erected state, and prevents the infant from escaping. As shown in the drawing, the rotating support bar (52) and horizontal guide bar (53) of the folding fence part (50) are folded toward the front panel (31) to lower the height of the folding fence part (50) and then move the infant.
[0054] In order to maintain the rotary support bar (52) in a vertically erected state, the folding fence part (50) may be hinged so that one end of the horizontal guide bar (53) is rotatably connected to the front panel (31), and may be supported by a rotary opening / closing panel provided with a locking means, or may be detachably fastened to the locking means. In addition, it is also possible to maintain the rotary support bar (52) in a vertically erected state by forming a joining groove in the rear panel (32) and detachably fitting the other end of the horizontal guide bar into the joining groove.
[0055] At this time, in the structure where the horizontal guide bar (53) is connected to the rotation opening / closing panel, the rotation opening / closing panel is rotated and then the rotation support bars (52) are rotated to be folded.
[0056] The above rail bracket (511) is made of synthetic resin material, and can also be formed of metal material.
[0057] In addition, by attaching a plurality of rail brackets (511) to the rail fixing member (51), it is easier to replace when damaged and easier to install and maintain compared to the rail brackets (511) that are formed as a single piece.
[0058] In addition, the height of the folding fence part (50) can be increased by the guide support part (40).
[0059] At this time, the base connection panel (511a) of the rail bracket (511) is further formed with mounting grooves (511a') on both sides, and a connecting end portion (60) made of filling insertion units (61) is further fastened to the rail fixing portion (51) to interconnect the rail brackets (511).
[0060] The above-mentioned filling fitting unit (61) connects the rail brackets (511) and can be fixed by being forcibly fitted into the fixing groove (511a'), and can be fixed by being screwed after being fitted into the fixing groove (511a').
[0061] Alternatively, it is also possible to further form a fitting projection on the bottom surface of the above-mentioned mounting groove (511a') and further form a fitting groove on the bottom surface of the above-mentioned filling fitting unit (61) so that the fitting projection is fitted therein.
[0062] The above-mentioned filling insert unit (61) is formed in a panel structure and connects the rail brackets (511) to each other to improve the support and fixing force, prevent foreign substances from entering between the rail brackets (511), and enhance the aesthetic appeal.
[0063] The above rail bracket (511) is further formed with a buffer damper (70) that connects the base connection panel (511a) and the bracket member (511b) together.
[0064] The bracket member (511b) is prevented from being separated from the base connection panel (511a) by the above buffer damper (70), thereby improving strength and support capacity.
[0065] For example, the above buffer dampers (70) can be installed two at a predetermined interval on the rail frame (42), and configured so that one buffer damper (70) can support 20 kg, so that two buffer dampers (70) installed on one rail frame (42) can support a total of 40 kg.
[0066] The above rail frame (42) is further provided with a side reinforcing support member (80) to support the bracket member (511b) and the filling insert unit (61).
[0067] The above side reinforcement support member (80) is composed of a hook connection member (81) formed integrally with a pair of hook angle members (811) formed integrally with the rail frame (42), a side reinforcement frame (82) formed integrally with a pair of fastening angle members (821) to fasten the hook connection member (81), and a protruding pressure member (83) formed to protrude outwardly on the upper surface of the side reinforcement frame (82) and supporting the bracket member (511b) and the filling fitting unit (61).
[0068] That is, the impact transmitted from the outside to the rail frame (42) is buffered by the side reinforcement frame (82), and the protruding pressure portion (83) supports the bracket member (511b) and the filling fitting unit (61), thereby improving the supporting force and fixing force and preventing separation and movement.
[0069] A fastening hole (611) is further formed in the above filling fitting unit (61), and a through hole (421) is further formed in the above rail frame (42).
[0070] The above filling insert unit (61) and the rail frame (42) are interconnected by a connecting fixing means (90).
[0071] The above-mentioned connecting fixing means (90) is composed of a connecting bracket (91) which is arranged on the upper surface of the filling fitting unit (61) and has a connecting hole (911) formed therein, a connecting bolt (92) which has one end inserted so as to penetrate the connecting hole (911), the fastening hole (611) and the through hole (421), and a fixing nut (93) which is fastened to one end of the connecting bolt (92) which penetrates the through hole (421), thereby improving the fixing force and supporting force of the filling fitting unit (61) and the rail brackets (511) supported by the filling fitting unit (61), and preventing them from being moved by an external force.
[0072] It is preferable that the above connecting fixing means (90) be fastened to a pair of filling fitting units (61).
[0073] Although the present invention has been described in detail so far, it should be made clear that the embodiments mentioned in the process are merely exemplary and not limiting, and the present invention is provided by the following claims, and changes in components that can be equally dealt with within the scope that does not depart from the technical idea or field of the present invention are within the scope of the present invention.
