Definitions
- the invention relates to a hospital bed.
- the invention has for its object to provide a bed in which patients can be relocated effortlessly and in the most gentle manner possible.
- the inventive solution to this problem is the subject of claim 1, preferred embodiments are described in claims 2-12.
- the patient does not have to be lifted during the repositioning.
- the patient is only turned by the caregiver and the mattress (or previously) is moved laterally so that the patient is again in the center of the bed.
- the manual rotation of the patient is also eliminated, in that the patient can be rotated into a different position by means of one of the lifting rollers.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view of a hospital bed according to the invention
- FIG. 3 shows a cross section corresponding to FIG. 2, the two outermost rollers being in a different position
- Fig. 4 shows a cross section through the upper run of an endless chain shown schematically in Fig. 1.
- the sick bed shown has a conventional bed frame with a head part 1, a middle part 2 and a foot part 3, which are articulated at 4 and 5.
- the patient lies with the head and torso over the head part, with buttocks and thighs over the middle part and with lower legs and feet over the foot part.
- Two chains 6, 7 are tensioned along the bed, on which three trusses 8, 9, 10 are attached are.
- Each of the crossbeams 8, 9, 10 carries six pairs of coaxial rollers arranged next to one another, of which the roller pairs carried by the crossbeam 8 are designated by 11-16 in the drawing.
- An endless belt 17 (FIGS. 2-4) encloses all the rollers and is detachably fastened along its two edges to two endless chains 18, 19, the circumference of which corresponds to the circumference of the belt.
- the chain wheels 20-23 of the chains are arranged in the corners of the head and foot parts 1 and 3 and the drive wheels 21, 23 can be driven synchronously in both directions of rotation by two drive motors 25 and 26 controlled by a common motor controller 24.
- the mattress envelops the belt 17 as an endless sleeve 27 and is held on the belt by static friction and at the edges by (not shown) surface zippers (brand name Velcro fasteners), so that it is carried along by it during its orbital movement.
- the ends of the longitudinal chains 6 and 7 run between the upper and lower runs of the endless chain 18 and 19 and are releasably attached to beams 28, 29 attached to the end of the head and foot parts 1 and 3. (Arms "could also protrude on the beams between the runs, to which the chains would have to be attached.)
- the pairs of rollers 11-16 are made of foam and are freely rotatable on axes running in the longitudinal direction of the bed, of which in the drawing (FIGS.
- the crossbeam 8 consists of a central part 35 and two outer parts, of which only the left part, designated 36, is visible in the drawing (FIGS. 2 and 3).
- the middle part 35 is fastened to the chains 6 and 7 and formed as a rectangular hollow profile in which the outer parts are slidably mounted.
- the axes 33 and 34 of the middle pairs of rollers 13 and 14 are on the middle part 35, the axis 31 of the outermost pair of rollers 11 is on the outer part 36 and the axis 32 of the second outermost pair of rollers 12 is mounted on the free end of a lever 37 which is pivotable on the middle Part 35 is articulated.
- a coupling member 38 is articulated at one end approximately in the middle of the lever 37 and at the other end at the end of the outer part 36.
- a Vinkelhebel 39 is pivotally mounted on the outer part 36 and carries a rotatable roller 40, 41 at both ends.
- the roller 40 is in the rest position shown in Fig. 2 on the underside of the coupling member 38.
- One end of a cable 42 which is fastened to the central part 35, is guided around the roller 41.
- the cable 42 is deflected by a deflection roller 43 in the longitudinal direction of the bed and is guided downward in FIG. 1 to a pulling device 44, wherein it is guided between the upper and lower run of the endless chain 19 and through the beam 29.
- the right part of the bed not shown in FIGS.
- the band 17 is detachably connected to the endless chains 18 and 19 along its two edges. 4 shows the connection of the one band edge to the one chain in a schematic cross section through the upper chain center: the outer plates 48 of the chain are designed as angle pieces, on the parts of which are angled on the outer chain circumference, plates 49 are riveted.
- a pin 50 protruding outward in the circumferential plane with a head and on the side facing away from the bed an inwardly projecting axis 51, on which a guide roller 52 is mounted.
- the edge of the band 17 is provided with eyelets 53 which are held on the pins 50. Their heads prevent the eyelets from sliding off the pins, but the eyelets can easily be pulled off over the heads by hand.
- the guide roller 52 runs between two guide rails 54, 55 lying parallel to the orbital plane, whereby the chain is guided against rotation and displacement perpendicular to the orbital plane. A twisting and a displacement of the chain would otherwise be inevitable because of the tension exerted by the belt 17.
- a guide bar 56 between the chain runs finally prevents them from approaching. Instead of chains 18, 19, timing belts could also be used.
- the two endless chains 18 and 19 are driven, for example, counterclockwise by means of the motor control 24.
- the upper run of the belt 17 and the mattress 27 then transports the patient in the direction of the outer Roller pairs 11, 12.
- the drive is then switched off and the cable 42 and the two cables associated with it on the left side of the bed in FIG. 1 are actuated by means of the pulling device 44.
- the pair of rollers 12 and the pairs of rollers arranged behind them in the axial direction and arranged on the cross members 9 and 10 pivot upward, the patient being turned to the side.
- the patient then lies in the center of the bed in the side position and the cables can be relieved, whereupon the pairs of rollers go back to the rest position.
- the patient can be brought to the other side position using the cable 45 and the two other cables.
- the tape is e.g. detached from the endless chain 18 and the longitudinal chains 6 and 7 from the beam 28.
- the mattress 27 can then be pulled off the belt after the surface zip has been released.
- the band 17 could also form the inner surface of the mattress shell 27, i.e. Belt and mattress could be made in one piece, but removing the mattress for cleaning is more difficult.
- the support device consisting of the traverses 8 to 10 and the longitudinal chains 6 and 7 does not need to carry the entire weight of the rollers, the mattress and the patient, because the parts 1, 2, 3 of the bed frame form a base for the mattress.
- the tensile stress of the longitudinal chains 6 and 7 must be dimensioned so large that the mattress 27 slides easily over the support 1, 2, 3 in the direction of rotation during the drive.
- the tension must also ensure that the longitudinal chains 6, 7 hold the crossbeams 8, 9, 10 in their mutual position and in particular prevent the crossbeams from pivoting against one another.
- the parts 1, 2, 3 can be easily pivoted against one another (about the pivot axes 4, 5), for example the head part 6 can be pivoted upwards, because the longitudinal chains 6 and 7 are articulated and the beams 28, 29 holding them and the drive device 18 - 26 are attached to the head and foot sections 1 and 3, i.e. they can be pivoted with them.
- the longitudinal chains 6 and 7 other longitudinal parts, e.g. multi-part rods are provided, the individual parts of which are connected to one another in an articulated manner, the articulated connections having to lie in the region of the pivot axes 4, 5.
- the pulling device 44 could also be arranged on the underside of the bed and the two cable pulls 42, 45 on the beam 29 could be deflected downward. Furthermore, the pulling device 44 could be attached to the longitudinal chains 6 and 7 in the space between the lowest or uppermost row of rollers in FIG. 1, the belt 17 and the endless chain 19 and 18, and connecting lines from it between the strands of the chain 19 and 18, respectively be guided to a control device on the outside of the bed.
- the endless belt 17 can be made of, for example, stretch-resistant material of the brand name "Stamoid”.
