Description

[Detailed description of the invention] patient lifting device FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a lifting device useful for lifting a patient.

Background of the invention Traditionally, it took at least two nurses to lift a patient; There is a risk of injury to your back. To prevent back injuries, various types of lifting have been hair removal devices have been proposed.

As far as Ganto Toyama knows, the most recent prior art is Mino Elklaus (MIC). West German Patent No. 2460858 of HAEL KRAUS is the basis, and the details of this patent are In the book, a lift that works similar to ice scissors and lifts a patient from an overhead trolley is used. A lifting scissor device is disclosed. Although such devices are useful for special purposes, , a number of problems can arise in the use of such devices.

The problem is to avoid applying pressure points to bedridden patients, and to If necessary, the inability to move the patient laterally from the lifting device and the It is difficult to ``load'' and ``unload'' patients from the station.

In addition to the above problems, another problem sometimes experienced is that it is difficult to pass the device through the doorway. Another problem is that the patient cannot be bathed quietly. patient is safe It feels safe and allows the pressure to be applied to the patient's body over a wide area, making it possible to The most important thing is to make it as uniform as possible. Treat specific parts of the patient's body In order to It is important that the site is accessible even in minutes.

This may be the case if the patient has to be lifted while sitting, or if the patient is lying down. There may be cases where it is necessary to lift the device in the same position.Therefore, an object of the present invention is to The goal is to provide a means to meet all of these demands.

Summary of the invention In one embodiment of the invention, a lifting device useful for lifting a patient includes a vertically extending An underframe supported by wheels having a long guide, and a vertically A moving carriage and a lift connected between the underframe and the carriage to raise and lower the carriage. The lowering device and the carriage are mounted on a plate, and the mounting is positioned laterally outward from the plate. at least one patient lift assembly releasably engaged with the plate; at least one patient lifting assembly clamped to and sliding along the bar; or multiple lifting ribs that rotate about this bar, and each rib. clamping means for clamping the ribs to the bar so that each rib is positioned below the patient. Provide a curved shape as much as possible.

More specifically, in the present invention, a lifting device for lifting a patient includes an underframe and an underframe. by means of a wheel supporting the frame, a guy means extending perpendicularly from the underframe, and a guide means. A guided, vertically moving carriage and a carriage that is connected to the underframe and the carriage. There is a lifting means that can move the carriage up and down, and a means for mounting it on the carriage. , and said attachment is positioned laterally outwardly from the means, and said attachment is releasable to the means. The fitting fitting is provided with fitting means.

Brief description of the drawing Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. . Of the accompanying drawings, FIG. 1 shows a patient lifting assembly having a plurality of curved ribs. FIG.

Figure 2 is an end view of Figure 1; FIG. 3 is an enlarged side view of the components shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 6. , Figure 4 shows how to position the curved lifting ribs of Figures 1 and 2 below the patient. Perspective view showing the law, Figure 5 shows the patient being lifted by the lifting ribs in a lying position; Perspective view of Figure 6 is a partial cross-sectional view of the suspension bar of Figure 5 showing the clamping means; FIG. 7 is an illustration of another patient lift assembly including a seat frame assembly; FIG. 8 is a partially offset sectional view of FIG. 7.

(Figures 1, 2, and 3 are views from the opposite side of the other drawings. ) In this embodiment, a lifting device 10 useful for lifting a patient has a generally U-shaped flat surface. A planar underframe 11 is provided, and this underframe 11 has a bridge portion 12 and two extension arms. 13, all of which are supported by four caster wheels 14.

The underframe 12 is provided with upright guide means, the guide means having inwardly facing parallel surfaces. 18, 19 (FIG. 1) with a C-shaped cross-section channel 17; The carriage 210 wheel nodule engages to guide the carriage vertically. Kya The ridge 21 extends outwardly through the gap n of the C-shaped channel 17 and has an outer end. The mounting includes a plate n reaching member 24, the mounting member 24 being connected to the patient lifting assembly. The patient lifting assembly 5 is mounted on a bracket 27 (see Fig. 4). 27a and Fig. 5) or shortened mounting is a bracket) 27a and mounting is a member extension. By combining the body 28 (Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and Fig. 7), the installation can be done by the member route. It is positioned laterally outward. Ki’+ The lifting means for lifting IJ Tsuji 21 is , a hydraulic cylinder; in this embodiment, the cylinder 21 The battery switch and the underframe 11 cooperate with each other and are housed in the casings 31 and 32. and an electrically actuatable reciprocating actuator I controlled by a relay circuit We prepared the following.

The structure of Figures 1, 2, 3, 7 and 8, and Figures 4 and 5. In the configuration, the mounting member 24 has a rear support surface and a front surface 35, and further includes a support surface. It includes a plurality of holes 36 having a surface forming a surface.

Mount it on the bracket 275 or on the member extension body side, or on the upper end of the member hook. It supports the ring-shaped body and the ring-shaped body that presses against the back side. Rear extension bin 39 may fit into the support surface of the hole 36 and the patient lift assembly may be accidentally released or It constitutes a rear projection that prevents movement. Make the patient feel ok However, instead of the bottle and hole structure described above, ears and notches can be used. You can also.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1-5, the patient lifting assembly includes a bracket 27 (or, if the member extension side is used for installation, the length shown in Figure 1) At the outer end of the short bracket (27a), the clamp is inserted between the clamp members 43 (Fig. 2). The suspension bar 42 is provided with a suspended suspension bar 42.

The suspension bars 42 each have multiple releasable upper ends reaching ramp means 46 (FIG. 6). The releasable ramp means 46 carries a number of elastic lifting lips 45 and is tightened by a pin. 48 with an annular end 47 of each lifting lip 45 connected to the lifting lip 45. Ru. When the clamp lever 51 is activated, the lifting lever 45 holds the pin in the center. It is clamped by a centrally pivoting clamp cam 49. But the clamp When released, each lifting lip 45 slides and rotates relative to the pull-up bar 42. Allow one nurse to perform each lift without additional assistance. It is a curved device that can be used. The device can be pushed through the doorway. It can also be used to bathe patients. spring-loaded lift The fork applies approximately uniform pressure so as not to cause discomfort to the patient.

Each 7 orc can be individually retracted. Moreover, all these actions The process is carried out in conditions that not only do not cause discomfort to the patient, but also make the patient feel extremely safe. can become.
