Definitions

the invention relates to nursing beds more particularly to adjustable beds of the type normally used in hospitals or old people's homes and also by particular for nursing invalids or sick persons.
Such beds are wellknown but generally have embodied complicated mechanisms which add considerably to the cost of the bed as for instance electrical motors or present maintenance problems as hydraulic systems.
the principal object of the present invention is to provide an improved and pratical nursing bed construction in which the height and tilting of the mattress support may be easily-achieved.
An other object of the invention is to provide a very simple nursing bed construction in which the tilting of the mattress support may be easily achieved around an infinity of axis.
An other object of the invention is to provide an improved adjustable height and tilting nursing bed which may be simply and inexpensively produced.
the nursing bed of the present invention which comprises a mattress support and at least.two telescopic legs is provided with gas springs mounted between the sliding parts of the legs, with locking means and releasing means for the gas springs.
the gas springs which can work independently one from the others counterbalance the weight of the mattress support and the weight of the patient.
the locking means acting on each gas spring allow to obtain for the mattress support a predeterminated position chosen among an infinity of height and tilting positions.
the releasing means allow the nurse to modify the position of the mattress support without effort.
a nursing-bed comprises a mattress support 1 and four telescopic legs with sliding parts 2 and 3. So as to fix a predeterminated length for each leg locking means are provided.
a gasspring 5 is provided between sliding parts. 2 and 3 of each telescopic leg. So when the locking mean 4 is unlocked gasspring 5 tends to raise the support mattress against its and patient weight. If well chosen gasspring 5 allow the nurse to lift or lower the bed without effort.
each gasspring works independently and in a continuous way, it is possible to obtain an infinity of height and tilting positions.
tilting may occur around a longitudinal axis, or transversal but also around any other axis between the two precited at right angle axis.
potential patients in hospitals may have very various size ahd weight.
the figure 3 shows a gasspring provided with calibrating means adapted to counterbalance the difference of weight of potential patients.
This gasspring presents a cilinder 7 defining an in_er chamber 8 filled with compressed gas so as to push awaya piston 9 slidingly located in the cilinder 7.
an adjustable piston 10 which allows to modify the compression of the gas in chamber 8.
Under piston 10 are fixed two legs 11 between the extremities of which is weld a nut 12.
Under the cilinder 7 is located a milled headed screw 13 which cooperates with the nut.12.
a clip 14 prevents piston 10 to be pushed out of cilinder 7 by compressed gas..
piston 10 slides in cilinder 7 modifying the volume of chamber 8 thus modifying the compression.of gas within chamber 8.
a guid system 15, 16 is provided.
valvesystem the control mean 18 of which is located upon the stang 17 of the active.piston as it can be seen in figure 4.
Releasing means comprise levers 19 pivoted on mattress support 1 by means of axles 20.
Lever 19 comprises a flat portion 21 adapted to push on control mean 18 and a prehension portion 22 extending away from lever 19.
levers may be joined up so as to act on two or more locking means. For instance, it may be seen in figure 5 that raising the prehension position 22 of lever A will also raise prehension 22 of lever B and flat portion 21 of lever A will.lower flat position 21 of lever C the prehension portion 22 of which will raise prehension portion 22 of lever D.
levers it is possible to act on 1, two or all of gassprings as it may be seen in figures 6,7 and 8 in which levers noted A to H act on gassprings noted 1 to 4 as reported in tables.
