Definitions

  • the invention is based on medical furniture with, in particular, a padded support surface as a support for the patient during the treatment, comprising a frame and at least one support part, the support part being fastened to the frame by means of at least one connecting structure.
  • Medical furniture of the aforementioned type are in particular examination couches, treatment couches, operating tables, chairs, stools etc. These furniture generally have a padded, flat support part on which the patient is supported completely or only with body parts during the treatment.
  • the support part or parts in question are screwed to the frame so that an exchange of a support part, for example because its upholstery and / or its covering has become worn, defective, unsightly or otherwise no longer usable in the course of time, with the help of a tool must be carried out by a specialist.
  • the repair costs required for this, including travel costs for a fitter, are very high and in many cases exceed the current value of the furniture in question.
  • the frames of the furniture are often still fully functional and throwing away the furniture is therefore generally not an option.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a piece of medical furniture of the type mentioned in the introduction, in which, while maintaining the operational safety of the furniture, the repair costs for replacing the furniture part supporting the patient are substantially reduced.
  • the solution to this problem is based on the medical furniture mentioned in the introduction and is characterized in that the connecting structure consists of a pin-socket design, in which the pin is positively, non-positively or non-positively engaged with the socket against unintentional solution.
  • the color of the furniture can also be easily and quickly adapted to the newly designed practice rooms.
  • the cheaper repair according to the invention also has the further advantage that only the support part that is no longer required has to be disposed of, so that unnecessary waste is avoided because the frame of the furniture is still used and that the hygiene conditions are met because no wipes or the like Covering unsightly or damaged support parts is required.
  • connection construction according to the invention for the medical furniture in question are specified in the subclaims.
  • the pin can be provided with an axial spacing section, for example in the form of a larger axial longitudinal section or in the form of a collar part.
  • a support shoulder is formed for the support part, which is thus at a distance from the frame in a simple manner.
  • This design is particularly advantageous in the case of pivotable support parts because it avoids hand or finger injuries when operating the support part. The given distance prevents fingers from being pinched between the support part and the frame supporting it.
  • the examination table generally designated 1 in FIG. 1, consists of an upper, flat support part 2, on which the patient places himself, and of the lower frame 3, to which the support part 2 is attached.
  • the support part consists of two areas, namely a fixed area 4 and a pivotable area 5.
  • the support part 2 or its areas 4 and 5 have a top which is padded in a conventional manner so that the patient can be comfortably positioned . While padding is usually beneficial, it is not essential.
  • FIG 2 the attachment of the support member 2 to the frame 3 is shown in more detail.
  • the pin 6 is attached to a mounting bracket 7, eg by welding, soldering or in some other way.
  • the contra-angle in turn is attached to the frame 3, for example by screwing.
  • the bushing 8 has, for example, a hat shape and is captively fastened in the plate part (not shown) of the support part 2. According to the arrows 9, the support part 2 is connected to the frame 3, the bushes 8 being slipped onto the pins 6.
  • FIGS. 3 to 8 show one type of pin and socket design in various embodiments.
  • the common feature of these embodiments is that the socket 8 plugged onto the pin 6 rests on the upper leg 7a of the angle piece 7.
  • the pin 6 has an annular groove 10 near its upper end.
  • the bushing 8, which is seated in the support part 2 shown in simplified form, is provided with an annular projection 11, which extends around its inner circumference and which snaps into the annular groove 10.
  • the socket 8 is preferably made of an elastic plastic, while the pin 6 consists of metal. If the socket 8 is slipped onto the pin 6, at least one positive connection is provided by the projection 11 seated in the annular groove 10. If the projection 11 is made with a certain excess, a certain amount of friction is added. In both cases, however, this connection can be easily separated and assembled by hand without tools.
  • the angle piece 7 is screwed to the frame 3 with its vertical leg 7b.
  • the embodiment of Figure 4 is similar in the essential parts of the embodiment of Figure 3, but has the difference that the pin 6 is attached to the support member 2 while the Angle piece 7 has the socket 8 captive. This feature can also be provided in embodiments according to FIGS. 5-8.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 5 differs from that according to FIG. 3 only in that in this case the pin 6 has an annular projection 12 on its outer circumference, while the socket is accordingly provided with an inner annular groove 13. Since the bushing 8 is preferably made of elastic plastic, the pin 6 can also enter into a positive or non-positive locking connection with the bushing 8 in this case.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 7 is slightly modified compared to that in FIG. 5 in that the interlocking regions of the pin 6 and the bushing 8 are spherical or hollow spherical.
  • the pin has a spherical end 14 which engages in a hollow spherical shape 15 of the socket 8.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 6 has a pin 6 which is provided with a spring ring 16 which, in turn, is arranged in an annular groove 17 of the pin 6 for a secure position.
  • the bushing 8 is not provided with any form-fitting features on its inner circumference, but is made smooth. However, there is a clearance fit between the pin 6 and the socket 8. If the pin 6 is now inserted into the socket 8, the spring ring 16 with its abutment against the inner circumference of the socket 8 ensures that there is sufficient frictional engagement between the pin and the socket, so that this results in between the support part 2 and the frame 3 there is sufficient fastening.
  • FIG. 8 A modified embodiment for a frictional or frictional fit between the pin 6 and the socket 8 is shown in Figure 8.
  • the pin 6 also has no form-fitting means on its outer circumference, rather the pin 6 and the bushing 8 are designed with a weak interference fit at their interacting diameters.
  • the elastic bushing yields sufficiently when it is pushed onto the pin 6.
  • the pin has a ventilation passage 6a.
  • FIGS. 9 to 12 differ from those according to FIGS. 3 to 8 in that the pin 6 is each provided with an axial spacing section 18. Otherwise, the pin 6 and the bushing 8 are designed in the manner described in connection with the embodiments according to FIGS. 3 to 8.
  • the axial spacing section 18 is formed by a section of the journal 6 which is enlarged in diameter. This results in a radial contact shoulder 19 on which the bush 8 is supported. As a result, there is a distance between the support part 2 and the frame 3 corresponding to the length of the distance section 18. This section is chosen so that an injury to the hand or fingers of a person is avoided.
  • FIG. 10 differs only from that according to FIG. 9 in that in this case the pin 6 is fastened to the support part 2 and the bushing 8 to the frame part of the frame 3. This reverse arrangement of the pin and bush naturally also applies to the embodiment according to FIGS. 11 and 12.
  • the axial distance section to the angle piece 7 is formed in that the pin 6 is provided with a collar 20. This in turn forms the support shoulder 19.
  • a very simple form for producing a distance between the support part 2 and the frame 3 is that the pin 6, as a simple cylindrical pin, has a length or height which is a desired amount greater than the effective depth of the bush 8, as shown in Figure 12. As a result, the pin 6 has a lower longitudinal section 18 which determines the desired distance.
  • the bushing 8 can have a simple shape as shown in Figure 12, i.e. without an outer edge flange 8a, e.g. is shown in Figure 11.
  • the flange 8a serves as a secure power transmission to the angle piece 7 or to the shoulder 19 of the pin 6 for a proportional force which results from the load on the support part 2.
  • this load can also be transmitted to the upper end of the pin via the bottom wall 8b of the bushing 8 (FIG. 11).
  • both components 6 and 8 can be attached to their own angle piece 7.
  • both the pin and the bushing can be made of the same material.
