Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for controlling the energy supply to one or more actuators designed as servomotors, a lying surface and / or Med lake constitution - backrest, footboard, heart part or the like - a piece of furniture - couch, chair, bed, nursing bed, hospital bed - and rigid handlebar elements are associated with the lying surface and / or a base of the furniture in geared connection, wherein the power supply to the actuator in question is made by a single hand switch with actuating means, the signal-giving energy supply network for the actuators and the furniture is assigned, wherein the lying surface or its pivotally connected lying surface parts in height, if necessary in the room in different angular positions, adjustable by an associated actuator or by a plurality of actuators and can be locked in the respective position, with a plurality of arranged on the single hand control actuating means.
  • the invention relates to such furniture.
  • the invention relates to a controller for controlling the power supply to one or more actuators designed as servomotors for such furniture.
  • the additional switching device has a time switching element which delays the triggering of the respective function, the additional switching device comprising a block for time delay, a block for activating the function and a block for signal output.
  • a block for signal detection and a block for pulse shaping is connected upstream and a block for function linking and forwarding of the signals downstream.
  • the additional switching device includes a comparator, in which a certain sequence of actuated, free actuating elements can be stored, so that upon actuation of the additional switching device associated actuators the function can be triggered only in combination with the sequence.
  • the auxiliary switching device includes a block for the signal recognition of the free actuators for the sequence, a block for forwarding the signals and a block for pulse shaping.
  • the additional switching device includes a block for the signal recognition for the actuators of the special functions, a block for the input of the combination of the actuators, a block for the combination comparison and release, and a block for the function linking and forwarding.
  • the additional switching device includes a magnetically sensitive switch which can be actuated by a magnetic field.
  • This magnetic field should be generated by a permanent magnet, which can be attached as a loose component from the outside to the housing of the hand-shaker.
  • the additional switching device includes an infrared or radio signals generating transmitter in the form of loose additional part and these signals receiving and processing the function triggering block in the form of a receiver.
  • the additional switching device should include a reader for an insertable into the handset smart card.
  • the additional switching device includes a comparator
  • a specific sequence of free actuating elements to be actuated should be storable in the latter, so that the function can only be triggered in combination with the sequence when the actuating elements assigned to the additional switching device are actuated.
  • This solution has the advantage over the time delay that it should be extremely difficult for an unauthorized person to find out how the function is triggered.
  • this known type that initially one of the additional switching device associated actuating elements is to be operated, and that then in the said sequence, the free actuators must be actuated.
  • the handset includes actuators associated with special functions that may only be triggered by authorized persons, such as nursing staff.
  • an actuator must be pressed until a time has elapsed after which the function is then triggered. Simultaneous pressing of actuators (buttons), therefore remains ineffective. When pressing the actuator, a switch is closed. From that moment on, the time delay runs. If the actuator is released in advance or pressed only briefly, no function is triggered. Also, a renewed pressing is ineffective, as to the actuators must be pressed.
  • the EP 1 948 108 B1 describes a bed that is adjustable in height and has several motors for height adjustment and adjustment of Salviniusen too - backrest, foot part - has. This bed has a sensor device that works on the Hall effect.
  • a manual switch allows you to control a height position by authorized persons (nursing staff) who are not supposed to control the patient in bed. For this purpose, the authorized persons must press certain buttons on the handset at the same time to control this locked for the patient position (low position of the mattress frame).
  • the invention has for its object to propose a structurally suitable furniture, in particular a nursing bed, hospital bed, intensive care bed, armchair or the like, which includes such a control.
  • the invention has for its object to provide for a furniture of the type presupposed an advantageous control of the power supply to the actuators designed as servomotors, which also allows the programmable control of only the nursing staff reserved areas of the bed with simple means.
  • the procedure according to claim 1 makes it possible to control the lying surface and its parts by sequential actuation of an unlocking means and within a short period of seconds by operating at least one further actuating means on the maximum or below the minimum height of the lying surface or parts thereof, normally from Furniture user, for example, by a patient in a hospital bed or by a patient in a nursing bed, is controllable.
  • This is above the patient-controllable altitude range lying maximum or below the minimum altitude range Area of the bed, can be controlled by the inventive method only by authorized persons, for example by the nursing staff.
  • a special feature is the sequential, ie successive operation of button-type actuating means on a single hand switch, namely an unlocking and then at least one further actuating means. Only if the very short period of time is respected, can the couch surface or its parts be controlled at altitudes that are below the height ranges normally accessible by the patient or above these height ranges. Inadvertent pressing of actuators on the handset, for example by pinching the handset under a pillow or the like, does not trigger the function reserved for authorized persons only. Because the unlocking means and at least one other actuating means is not sequentially-sequentially-actuated within a short period of time after the Entrlegelungsstoff has been released, that is no longer actuated, in particular is pressed, no function is triggered. Too long pressing or pressing only one actuating means, for example the unlocking means, does not make it possible to control the lying surface or its parts in height ranges reserved for authorized persons only.
  • a further advantage is that, in contrast to the prior art, no special additional switching devices, such as magnetic switches, which are to be attached to the outside of the handset, are required. Only if within the a very short period of time sequential actuation of the designated actuating means - unlocking and actuating means - done by the authorized person, the desired function is triggered, that is, the bed surface controlled with their parts in height ranges, not without a patient in a hospital or nursing bed are further accessible and could lead to damage to underlying objects or even injury if the bed surface is too low.
  • an actuating means is provided on the handset, for the storage of height settings of the lying surface, including the height ranges below and / or above the controllable by the bed user height areas and / or configurations of Med vommaschine - backrest, heart part, foot or The like - after actuation of the unlocking means is used.
  • height ranges can be stored either by the manufacturer or else by authorized persons, which are above and / or below the usual height ranges located by the patient or the user of the furniture. In an emergency, retrieval of such altitude ranges by the authorized persons is given quickly.
  • the lying area with its parts by authorized persons to a height relative to the floor between 30 and 50 cm, preferably between 20 and 35 cm, lower.
  • a piece of furniture of this kind can be a nursing bed, a hospital bed or an intensive care bed. Also, certain furniture can move like a chair against each other after appropriate angular adjustment of their mattress parts, so that then the resting, for example, in a bed person, this bed, for example, a hospital bed or a nursing bed, easier to leave or even use the bed if necessary.
