Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hospital and / or nursing bed with rollers, preferably swivel castors, and with a lifting frame carrying a bed frame, which has a head-side and a foot-side lifting device for lifting and lowering and in which the lifting devices are provided with a formwork or paneling.
  • Such a bed is known from DE-OS 39 02 334.
  • the lying element is placed on an essentially flat supporting frame.
  • the support frame can be pivoted about at least one horizontal axis by means of at least one lifting device which can be moved exclusively in the vertical direction.
  • the support frame is also provided with a length compensation device.
  • the lifting devices each consist of an electric motor, lifting tubes being displaceably arranged on stationary guide rods which are connected to one another by means of a coupling rod.
  • So-called cross-connection supports are also provided, which carry the bed's casters and casters.
  • This bed design is complicated in construction and very complex, particularly with regard to the roller arrangement.
  • the lifting devices are provided together with the drive motors at the top and bottom.
  • the associated side members are underpinned by the guide rods and the cross-connecting members.
  • This design is intended, inter alia, to ensure that such a bed is suitable not only for nursing homes and hospitals, but also for the home care of a person.
  • such a bed appears to be susceptible to failure and weight.
  • the rollers cannot be retracted; so they are always in the extended state.
  • the older EP-OS 433 737 which is not prior to the priority documents of the present application, shows a hospital and / or nursing bed consisting of a bed frame in which a preferably adjustable bed insert or bed frame is arranged, and a lifting frame carrying the bed frame with a Lifting device for lifting and lowering the bed frame with several, preferably four, footrests.
  • the bed frame has support supports pointing downwards.
  • a castor is provided at the foot of the support supports.
  • the support brackets and the castors are arranged within the footrests and the casters protrude from the footrests in the lowered state.
  • the object of the invention is to improve a hospital and / or nursing bed of the type specified at the outset.
  • Footrests are arranged on the bed frame. These footrests have rollers, preferably castors, at their lower ends. The lifting devices and the footrests are each surrounded by a head and a foot panel.
  • the footrests project downward from the bed frame, preferably vertically downward.
  • Four footrests can be provided, which are preferably located in the areas of the corners of the bed frame.
  • the panels are connected to the bed frame and / or the footrests. The arrangement is such that the panels move with the bed frame when it is raised and / or lowered. With the bed according to the invention, a change to a standing position or driving position can be carried out by lifting or lowering the lifting frame.
  • the lifting devices can each consist of a motor, preferably an electric motor, and a spindle.
  • the lifting devices are preferably provided with guide elements, which are preferably arranged in the panels.
  • a common runner is attached to the lifting devices and, if appropriate, to the guide elements. So there is a skid both on the head side and on the foot side.
  • the undersides of the runners, ie their standing surfaces, can be rounded in the transverse direction so that the runners can be moved better on their standing surfaces.
  • footrests of the lifting frame and possibly also the guide elements of the lifting device are offset from one another, one behind the other or laterally next to one another.
  • the footrests can also be arranged on the end outside of the runners.
  • the lifting devices in particular the motors or electric motors, can preferably be controlled independently of one another on the head side and on the foot side.
  • the control for the motors can thus be designed so that they can be controlled individually. This makes it possible to set the motor in motion in one of the lifting devices and thus to raise and lower the lifting frame on one side in the longitudinal direction of the bed (longitudinal axis direction).
  • a further advantageous development is characterized in that the lifting devices are each surrounded by a further head-side and foot-side cladding which engage telescopically in the first head-side and foot-side claddings.
  • the other panels can be connected to the guide elements. The arrangement is then such that the further panels are moved together with the guide elements. This results in an even better covering of the lifting devices and thus an even more appealing appearance of the hospital and / or nursing bed.
  • the advantages of the invention are that the structure of the lifting frame is simplified and the stability of the bed is increased. A safe adjustment of the bed is also achieved. Additional locking devices for the castors are not required. A complex four-roller central lock is not necessary.
  • the patient and / or nursing bed shown in FIG. 1 has a bed frame 1 with an adjustable bed insert 9.
  • Four vertically downward-pointing footrests 4 are arranged on the bed frame 1 in its corner regions, each of which has a swivel castor at its lower ends 5 have.
  • the footrests 4 are designed as columns.
  • a lifting device is provided both on the head side and on the foot side (ie both at the head end of the bed frame 1 and at the foot end thereof).
  • Each lifting device consists of one Electric motor 8, through which a spindle (lifting spindle) 6 can be driven.
  • a spindle nut is engaged with the spindle 6 and is connected to a support 16 pointing vertically downward. By a rotation of the lifting spindle 6 generated by the electric motor 8, the support 16 is moved up or down. 1, the support 16 is shown in its downwardly extended position.
  • the lifting devices consisting of electric motor 8 and spindle 6, and the footrests 4 are each surrounded by a head-side and a foot-side cover 10.
  • the linings 10 are connected to the bed frame 1. They extend vertically downwards from the underside of the bed frame 1 and have a rectangular cross section.
  • Guide sleeves 3 are also connected to the bed frame 1 and extend vertically downward from the underside of the bed frame 1.
  • Guide rods 13 are slidably mounted within the guide sleeves 3 and protrude below the guide sleeves 3.
  • the guide sleeves 3 and the guide rods 13 each have a rectangular cross section. They form guide elements which are telescopically adjustable and which increase the safety of the lifting movement.
  • the guide sleeves 3 are also arranged within the casing 10.
  • a runner 2 is arranged both on the head side and on the foot side.
  • the bed stands on the runners 2.
  • the runners 2 can be moved into the position denoted by 2 'by the electric motors 8. In this position, the runners lie within the casing 10.
  • the guide rods 13 are then fully inserted into the guide sleeves 3, and the support 16 is in its upper end position. In this retracted position, the castors 5 protrude from the cover 10 below.
  • the arrangement is such that the castors 5 only as far as protrude out of the panel 10 if necessary.
  • the bed is in this position on the castors 5 and can be driven. By lifting or lowering the lifting frame, a change to a standing position or a driving position of the bed can be carried out.
  • the motors 8, the spindles 6, the guide elements 3 and the footrests 4 are surrounded by the casing 10.
  • the runner 2 is retracted into the position denoted by 2 'if necessary or extended into the bottom position shown in solid lines in FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 2 top view
  • the footrests 4 and the guide elements 3 are arranged one behind the other.
  • the footrests 4 and the guide elements 3 offset to one another or laterally next to one another.
  • the guide elements 3 are located outside the footrests 4, as seen in the longitudinal direction of the bed.
  • the footrests 4 at the lower ends of which there is a swivel castor 5, are arranged on the end outside of the associated runner 2.
  • the footrests 4 are thus located in the extension of the longitudinal extension of the runner 2. They are arranged at the ends of the runner outside the body of the runner 2, but inside the lining 10.
  • the runner 2 is moved upwards into the covering 10. This is done by a rotation of the spindle 6 caused by the electric motor 8, by means of which the support 16 is moved upwards. During this movement, the support 16 slides into the spindle 6. Furthermore, the guide rods 13 slide into the guide sleeves 3; the guide elements therefore slide into each other. If the The skid has been retracted completely upwards, i.e. has reached the position shown in FIG. 3, the castors 5 of the footrests 4 - protruding from the casing 10 - onto the floor, and the skid 2 moves into the position shown at 2 ' within the formwork. The bed (or the bed body) can now be moved and moved on the castors 5.
  • the runner 2 In the reverse sequence of movements, the runner 2 is extended downward from the position shown in FIG. 3 into the position shown in FIG. 1. The runners 2 sit on the stand underlay (floor) and give the bed body a safe stand.
  • the runners are rounded in the transverse direction on their undersides to ensure a safe and reliable stand even when the bed is adjusted on one side.
  • the bed has two electric motors 8 and two spindles 6. At the head end there is an electric motor 8 and a spindle 6, at the foot end there is also an electric motor 8 and a spindle 6. Both at the head end and at the foot end, two guide elements 3 are arranged vertically, which reliably ensure the lifting movement and the spindle function.
  • the electric motors 8, the spindles 6, the guide elements 3 and the footrests 4 are all provided together in the panels 10; all of these elements are surrounded by a panel 10.
  • the stroke adjustment of all functional elements is designed in this way and set up that the extension and telescoping is carried out down towards the base.
  • the lifting devices can be used to change from a standing position into a driving position.
  • the electric motors can be controlled independently of each other at the top and bottom.
  • FIGS. 4 to 7 largely correspond to those of FIGS. 1 to 3.
  • the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals, so that they do not have to be described again.
  • the difference is that in the embodiments according to FIGS. 4 to 7, in addition to the upper cladding 10, there is a further cladding 11 on the head side and on the foot side, which engage telescopically in the first cladding 10.
  • the further linings 11 are connected to the runners 2. When the runners 2 move, the further claddings 11 also move.
  • the further claddings 11 each surround a runner 2 and an associated support 16 and two associated guide rods 13.
  • the bed then no longer looks like a sick and / or nursing bed, but like a normal bed.
  • the runners 2 are not absolutely necessary to implement the invention. Rather, it is possible to realize the bed according to the invention without runners. In this case, the bed is then in the extended position on the supports 16 and - if present - on the guide rods 13. If there are no guide rods 13, it is advantageous instead of only one support 16 at both the head end and the foot end provide at least two supports 16 of the bed.
  • the bed according to the invention has a lifting frame which consists of two lifting devices which are independent of one another which are used to raise and lower the bed.
  • the movement of the bed is reliably ensured by the vertically attached guide elements 3.
  • a separate control of the independently designed electric motors in the head and foot sections means that the lifting frame can only be raised and lowered in the longitudinal axis direction on one side, whereby the skids and the longitudinal rollers can be alternately controlled for driving and standing.
  • the further linings 11 shown in FIGS. 4 to 7 also extend in the vertical direction. They are also rectangular in cross section - like the upper panels 10. The outer circumference of the further linings 11 is, however, somewhat less than the inner circumference of the upper linings 10, so that the further (lower) linings 11 can be retracted telescopically into the upper linings 10.
  • the lower panels 11 are preferably designed as wooden panels. They preferably have no supporting function, but are pure cladding, for example made of plywood, which can have a wall thickness of 6 mm and the outside of which can be painted or can be provided with a screwed-on or otherwise fastened veneer.
