Definitions

  • the invention relates to an auxiliary device for a bed, in particular a patient bed, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Such an auxiliary device is known from GB-A-2 102 675.
  • This has an adjustable frame on the bed, which carries optionally drivable rollers at mattress height, the rollers being electrically driven via a chain drive which runs around the underside of the bed, a cloth extending between the rollers across the bed to which the patient lies and which can be moved in either direction.
  • This known construction is relatively complex and can not be easily attached to any conventional bed.
  • the beds consisting essentially of a bed frame, a resilient underlay (mattress) and an adjustable headboard, have already been adapted to the needs of patients and nursing staff in a variety of ways.
  • the lying surfaces are adjustable in height, head and foot sections are variable, and the bed frame is mobile.
  • the nursing staff is therefore required to regularly move such immobile patients to a different position so that the parts of the body that are exposed to stress are constantly changed. This is physically very difficult work with possible long-term damage to the spine and the associated loss of the caregiver. In addition, someone is not always available to change the location, especially at night.
  • DE-OS 35 90 309 provides a bed which is arranged between two shafts, two opposite sides of the sheet being wound around one shaft each. In order to turn a person lying on the sheet, the sheet is wound from one shaft to the other.
  • the laterally arranged shafts and hinges are a hindrance for the operating personnel. By folding the hinges to which the shafts are attached, the shafts are to be lowered so that a person can get out of bed better. This is a cumbersome construction that is unlikely to be practically accepted due to the difficult handling. In addition, an adapted bed construction is necessary for the attachment.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a structurally not very complex auxiliary device with a receiving device for the bed sheet to be wound up, which does not impede the nursing staff, is easy to handle, can bring about any desired changes in the patient's position and can be easily attached to any conventional bed .
  • the holding devices that can be attached to the head and foot ends for receiving the waves at different heights can on the one hand bring the patient into any desired height and inclination position and can also rotate about his body axis in another desired position. In the lower starting position, the waves and levers are in no way disturbing for the nursing staff.
  • a mattress 3 between the head end 1 and the foot end 2 of a bed.
  • a shaft 4a is arranged parallel to the right edge of the bed and is rotatably mounted in levers 5a and 5b both at the head end 1 and at the foot end 2.
  • the levers 5a and 5b can be pivoted upwards towards the center of the bed, as can be seen in the positions indicated.
  • the shaft 4a is raised over the mattress 3 to the middle of the bed.
  • a corresponding counter-rotating device is also attached to the left side of the bed. In Fig. 1, only the levers 6a and 6b are indicated in different positions.
  • the levers 5a and 6a are pivoted all the way out and down in the starting position.
  • a sheet-like support 7 (sheet) which is attached to the two side shafts 4a and 4b in such a way that it is wound up or unwound when the shafts 4a and 4b are rotated.
  • the cloth-like pad 7 moves in this way to the right or left edge of the bed.
  • the possibility of rotation of the shafts 4a and 4b is indicated by the arrow arcs P and P1.
  • the shafts 4a and 4b can be raised by means of the levers 5a and 6a (and the lever at the foot end, not shown) according to the arrows P2.
  • Fig. 3 shows a position with the levers 5a and 6a slightly raised and the lateral shafts 4a and 4b raised up to that point. This is the safety position because the patient cannot roll out of bed.
  • the raised shafts 4a and 4b together with the support 7 form a barrier.
  • Fig. 4 shows the patient after changing the position from the back to the side.
  • the levers 5a and 6a are still further pivoted upwards, and the pad 7 has lifted off the mattress 3.
  • the patient can be rolled onto his left or right side. His back areas are relieved of pressure from the couch, the stressed areas can be supplied with blood again, which prevents the development of sores (pressure ulcers).
  • the device can be operated both by hand and by motor. With manual drive, the shafts 4a and 4b are rotated using modified hand cranks. All of this happens without significant physical effort for the nursing staff. It is also possible to carry out a regular automatic change of the patient's position by equipping it with a program control. The times and the extent of the lever movements can be adapted to all requirements.
  • FIG 5 shows the patient in a lateral position, the position stabilization being achieved by further raising the waves to the left or right, depending on the position.
  • the special device can also consist of special guides and of electric drive, hydraulic or pneumatic cylinders.
  • 6a and 6b show the structure of the assembly unit to be attached to the foot end 2 or head end 1 of a bed with the levers 5a and 6a, which are each latched and pivotably mounted in a guide chamber 8a or 9a.
  • the levers 5a and 6a can be snapped into a locking plate 10a and 11a at fixed swivel heights.
  • the two guide chambers 8a and 9a are connected to one another by means of an exchangeable intermediate plate 12. For example, if the auxiliary device is mounted from a narrower bed to a wider bed then the intermediate bracket that is decisive for the narrower bed only has to be replaced by a wider intermediate bracket. Because the levers 5a and 6a are each mounted in a guide chamber 8a and 9a, all moving parts that are prone to accidents are protected at the critical points.
  • Fig. 7 shows the rotatably mounted shafts 4a and 4b with the levers 5a and 5b on a larger scale.
  • the shaft consists of telescopically displaceable sections.
  • the support 7 is received by a tubular middle part 13, into which one of end parts 14 rotatably mounted on the levers is inserted, while a driven counterpart 15 is coupled in a rotationally secure manner to the middle part 13 by means of a pipe clip 16 extended through the middle part 13 and the driven counterpart 15 is.
  • the central part 13 When the counterpart 15 is rotated by means of a crank attached to a crank pin 17, the central part 13 is rotated about the longitudinal axis in order to wind or unwind the support 7.
  • the middle part 13 rotates freely around a telescopic part 18 of the other end part 14 which is inserted into the middle part 13. If the auxiliary device is driven by a motor M mounted on the end part 14, then only the tubular linch pin 16 has to be converted to the end part 14.
  • the middle part is set in rotation via the end part 14, whereby it rotates freely around the telescopic part 18 ′ of the counterpart 15.
  • End part 14 and counterpart 15 are provided with a universal joint 20 or 20 'between telescopic part 18 or 18' and a lever bearing 19 or 19 '. If the shaft is lifted on one side, excessive kink loading is prevented, and problem-free transverse displacement of the headboard and footboard of the bed is made possible.
  • Telescopic guide and universal joint ensure the balance of the Differences in length between the bearing points and bridging the changing angles between end piece 14 or counterpart 15 and middle part 13.
  • auxiliary device brings significant relief here.
  • the levers of a shaft can be pulled apart for extension so that a "ramp" protrudes above the edge of the bed, which can be brought to and at the level of the transfer table. Now the patient can be easily pushed out of bed onto the X-ray table or the like. 8 shows such a possibility of use.
  • the patient must be turned back in the opposite direction of rotation. This then goes back to the prone position.
  • the patient can therefore not be rotated continuously in one direction of rotation, but must be rotated back and forth or left and right in the cycle.
  • the tubular shafts located in the back of the patient are locked in one of the three locking positions so that the patient is optimally supported. Pad is easily relaxed. If necessary, additional cushions are used.
  • the patient is raised by turning the two crank handles in opposite directions.
  • a pillow is placed under the chest and chin so that the patient can breathe freely.
  • the patient is drained. Unconscious patients are left lying with their breathing openings exposed in a slightly tense condition.
  • the two tubular shafts are locked in the first position.
  • Both pipe shafts are snapped into one of the two upper positions when the support is relaxed.
