Abstract

The mattress has a foam core and a cover which are both flame resistant. The cover is reinforced by staples or clips which are attached by a cord or belt to resist breaking against the weight of the mattress with a person lying on it. This cord also facilitates for the person to be evacuated on the mattress down a ladder, out a window, over a balcony etc. without having to be rearranged. The cover may be in more than one piece having the cord, belt or even possibly straps on the bottom part only. USE/ADVANTAGE - For use in hospitals, care homes, old peoples homes etc.. It is comfortable and hygienic and inexpensive.

Beschreibung description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Rettungsmatratze nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1. The invention relates to a rescue mattress according to the preamble of claim 1.

Matratzen sollen einen guten Liegekomfort bieten. Von Pflegebettmatratzen wird zudem verlangt, dass sie eine bessere Hygiene bieten als gewöhnliche Matratzen und auch die grössere Belastung durch Dauerbenützung (oft im 24-Stunden-Einsatz) aushalten. Gewöhnliche Matratzen können relativ leicht brennen, wobei auch schwerbrennbare und sogar extrem schwerbrennbare Schaumkerne bereits bekannt sind, jedoch noch relativ selten eingesetzt werden. Mattresses should offer good lying comfort. Nursing bed mattresses are also required to offer better hygiene than ordinary mattresses and to withstand the greater strain of long-term use (often in 24-hour use). Ordinary mattresses can burn relatively easily, although flame-retardant and even extremely flame-retardant foam cores are already known, but are still used relatively rarely.

Bekannt sind Matratzen, bei welchen die Hüllen genäht und mit Griffen, sowie mit einem Reissver-schluss oder Bändelverschluss versehen sind. Diese Griffe sind nur vorgesehen um eine blosse Matratze zu tragen und zu wenden, sie sind jedoch nicht solid und robust genug, um damit einen schweren Patienten zu tragen. Matratzen welche auch zum Tragen von Patienten eingesetzt werden können, waren bisher nicht bekannt. Das Tragen und Retten von Patienten war daher mit den bekannten Matratzen bisher nicht möglich. Die bekannten Konstruktionen der Griffe hätten dies auch nicht zugelassen. Mattresses are known in which the covers are sewn and provided with handles, as well as with a zipper or a strap closure. These handles are only intended to carry and turn a bare mattress, but are not solid and sturdy enough to carry a heavy patient. Mattresses that can also be used to carry patients were previously unknown. Carrying and saving patients was therefore not possible with the known mattresses. The known constructions of the handles would not have allowed this either.

Im Katastrophenfall (Brand, Erdbeben usw.) muss damit gerechnet werden, dass in Krankenhäusern, Altersheimen, Pflegeheimen usw. Bettenlifte und andere Lifte, sowie zum Teil Treppenhäuser und Korridore nicht mehr benutzbar sind. Die Patienten müssen somit auf eine andere Art gerettet werden können. In the event of a disaster (fire, earthquake, etc.), it must be expected that bed lifts and other lifts, as well as stairwells and corridors, will no longer be usable in hospitals, old people's homes, nursing homes, etc. The patients must therefore be saved in a different way.

Im Katastrophenfall stehen zur Rettung zu wenig Tragbahren zur Verfügung, zudem dauert das Umlagern auf solche viel zu lange. Die Patienten müssen schnell gerettet werden können. Es musste somit eine schnellere, bessere Trag- und Evakuati-onsmöglichkeit gesucht werden. In the event of a disaster, there are too few stretchers available for rescue, and the relocation to them takes far too long. The patients must be able to be saved quickly. A faster, better carrying and evacuation option had to be sought.

Nach der Rettung müssen Patienten auch wieder irgendwo schonend gelagert werden. Wenn weder Betten, noch Matratzen gerettet werden konnten, so ist auch die Lagerung der Patienten nach der Rettung in Frage gestellt. After the rescue, patients must be carefully stored somewhere again. If neither beds nor mattresses could be saved, the patient's position after the rescue is also called into question.

Schon deshalb wäre die Rettung der Patienten mitsamt der Matratze ein sehr grosser Vorteil. Da dies mit konventionellen Matratzen bisher nicht möglich war, mussten neue Möglichkeiten geprüft werden. Dabei kam der Erfinder auf die Idee, die Rettung mit einer Rettungsmatratze vorzunehmen und entwickelte eine solche. For this reason alone, rescuing the patient together with the mattress would be a very great advantage. Since this was previously not possible with conventional mattresses, new possibilities had to be examined. The inventor came up with the idea of performing a rescue with a rescue mattress and developed one.

Der hier nun vorliegenden Erfindung liegen die Aufgaben zugrunde, eine Matratze bereit zu stellen, welche einerseits dem normalen Einsatz in Pflegebetten dient und da allen Anforderungen in Bezug auf Komfort und Hygiene gerecht wird, und die andererseits zur Rettung der Patienten im Katastrophenfall dienen kann. Zudem sollte die Rettungsmatratze auch nicht viel teurer sein als eine gewöhnliche, herkömmliche Pflegebettmatratze. The present invention is based on the tasks of providing a mattress which, on the one hand, is used in normal care beds and since it meets all requirements in terms of comfort and hygiene, and which, on the other hand, can be used to rescue patients in the event of a disaster. In addition, the rescue mattress should not be much more expensive than an ordinary, conventional care bed mattress.

Erfindungsgemäss wird die Aufgabe gelöst durch eine Rettungmatratze gemäss dem Anspruch 1. According to the invention, the object is achieved by a rescue mattress according to claim 1.

Für die Herstellung einer Rettungsmatratze wird ein in der Petrochemie bekannter, extrem schwerbrennbar geschäumter Polyurethanschaum in geeigneter Matratzenqualität auf Ätherbasis als Schaumkern eingesetzt. Die Hülle wird zum Beispiel aus zwei Hüllenhälften hergestellt. Als Hüllenmaterial wird ein schwerbrennbares Gewebe eingesetzt, welches auch mit einer Schicht von etwa 10 mm dik-kem, ebenfalls sehr schwerbrennbarem Polyäther-schaum und einem leicht elastischen Steppstoff auf der Innenseite zusammen versteppt sein kann und so verstärkt wird. Es ist aber auch sonst ein sehr reissfester Hüllenstoff möglich. Die Seitenränder werden ringsum mit einem soliden Band verstärkt, so dass die danach montierten Ösen oder Krampen beim Tragen und Retten des Patienten nicht ausreis-sen. Danach werden die beiden Hüllenhälften mit einer soliden, schwerbrennbaren, etwa 10 mm dicken Kordel oder einer Gurte ringsum, horizontal so zu-sammenverschlauft, dass ein sog. Tragkordelver-schluss entsteht. An diesem kann danach die Matratze mit dem Patienten getragen oder an einem Kran oder Aufzug mit 4 Seilen oder Gurten mit Karabinerhaken aufgehängt und so gerettet werden. For the production of a rescue mattress, an extremely flame-retardant foamed polyurethane foam in a suitable mattress quality, based on ether, is used as the foam core. For example, the shell is made from two shell halves. A flame-retardant fabric is used as the covering material, which can also be quilted together on the inside with a layer of about 10 mm thick, also flame-retardant polyether foam and a slightly elastic quilting material, which reinforces it. However, a very tear-resistant covering material is also possible otherwise. The side edges are reinforced all around with a solid band so that the eyelets or cramps that are fitted afterwards do not tear out when the patient is carried and rescued. Then the two halves of the casing are looped together horizontally with a solid, flame-retardant, about 10 mm thick cord or with straps all around so that a so-called carrying cord lock is created. The mattress can then be carried on the patient or hung on a crane or elevator with 4 ropes or belts with carabiners and thus saved.
