Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of auxiliary means for assisting the movement and / or the change of posture for handicapped persons and relates to a device for the change of posture and / or the transport of such a person, especially for care home.
  • Mobility assistance for persons with permanent or temporary disabilities who have difficulty in changing position and mobility is usually achieved by means of devices specific to each need, such as portal lifts for lifting and transferring. said persons from one support to another or to a specific device and means of transfer of the wheelchair type.
  • Gantry lifting means also called patient lifts, generally comprise a frame mounted on rollers and a lifting arm provided with a hooking device for straps of a transfer seat.
  • These known lifting means have led to the care facilities adaptations care facilities or rest, such as beds, baths and the like, to allow, during the operation of said lifting means with patients, a displacement of the lower part of the frame provided with rollers under said installations.
  • Such a means is in particular known by DE-U-202 19,389 and is especially adapted to healthcare facilities, so that domestic use is possible only at the cost of costly adaptations.
  • the implementation of these means generally requires proven professional skills and their storage after use requires significant space. It follows that the use of known maneuvering means is very limited in the field of home care.
  • GB 2,290,757 discloses a device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • these known means generally solicit the spine of the nursing staff in the sense of a load, leading in the long term health problem for said staff, especially back pain.
  • it poses for the patients a problem of maintenance in bed, which causes a disruption of the biological rhythms, so that there can be confusion between day and night, the patient sleeping the day and not finding sleep anymore the night.
  • the nursing staff may be tempted, for this purpose, to intervene by prescription drugs facilitating nighttime sleep, with, however, the consequence of the risk of side effects.
  • prescription drugs facilitating nighttime sleep
  • the present invention aims to overcome these disadvantages by providing a device for the change of posture and / or the transport of a disabled person, including home care, allowing easy and simple use and storage in a restricted volume .
  • the device for the change of posture and / or the transport of a disabled person, in particular for home care is characterized by the technical elements of the characterizing part of claim 1.
  • the figure 1 appended drawings represents a device for the change of posture and / or the transport of a disabled person, especially for home care, which is intended to lift a patient from a given position, for example to a bed ( figure 2 ), and to transport to a place of care or to provide travel assistance to a person with reduced mobility ( figure 9 ) or to constitute a provisional support awaiting treatment.
  • this device is essentially constituted by a frame vertical support and tilting wheel A and a horizontal support assembly B can be folded on the vertical support rolling chassis in the non-use position of the device.
  • the vertical support and tilting frame A is constituted by a vertical support frame 1 mounted on two wheels 2 and provided with a front anti-tilt stop 3 provided on the vertical support frame 1, by a device 4 of FIG. front support for the legs, by a headrest 5 adjustable in height, by a stop 6 of support of the chest, and by a device 7 of articulation of the horizontal support assembly B.
  • the latter is constituted by a frame 8 articulated on the vertical support frame 1 of the vertical support and tilting frame A, extending behind the abutment 6 support of the chest, by a seat 9 mounted at least partially removable or pivotable on the frame 8 behind the abutment 6 support of the chest, by a means 10 of posture change maneuver mounted on the frame 8, the opposite side to the seat 9, and by a retractable backrest 11 mounted on the frame 8 at its opposite end to the means 10 d e postural change maneuver.
  • the anti-tilt stop before 3 is mounted on the vertical support frame 1 at the axle of the wheels 2 which are provided with a reversible locking means operable via a pedal 12 (FIG. figure 1 ).
  • This stop 3 is intended to maintain the device in certain positions against an accidental tilting forward and simultaneously forms, at its end remote from the vertical support frame 1, a support element for a voluntary tilting of the assembly of the device, via the posture change maneuvering means 10 ( figure 5 ).
  • the support device 4 for the legs is intended to allow a patient, sitting on the seat 9 of the device and whose feet rest on the lower crossbar of the frame 1 forming the wheel axle 2, to support by its legs against said device 4 which thus forms, simultaneously, a stop against a sliding forward.
  • the height-adjustable headrest 5 is mounted on the vertical support frame 1 by means of a telescopic tube 5 'sliding in the vertical support frame 1 and can be fixed in position by means of a screw. knurled head or the like 14.
  • the headrest 5 can be adjusted exactly according to the size of the patient, so as to ensure the latter an optimal comfort in a position, for example, sitting in progress transfer ( figure 3 ), sitting in the normal position of occupancy ( figure 4 ) or switching to a change of position ( figures 5 , 7 and 11 ).
  • This adjustable headrest 5 has, preferably, two lateral elements 5 '' forming facial supports These elements 5 '' can be made of synthetic material with a flexible coating and can be connected to a central element fixed to the telescopic tube 5 ', by elastically deformable connections allowing ergonomic adaptation.
  • the support abutment 6 of the chest may advantageously provide additional support to the patient to ensure better comfort and is preferably formed as a concave plate, synthetic material or other.
  • the device 7 for articulating the patient support assembly B preferably consists of a sleeve, a U-shaped profile or the like, extending perpendicularly with respect to the vertical axis of the vertical support frame 1, this sleeve forming a fixing bearing for a hinge axis 8 'of the frame 8 and being fixed thereto.
  • the hinge axis 8 'of the frame 8 is connected to said frame 8 by means of an intermediate frame 8 ", inserted into said frame 8 and further provided parallel to the hinge axis 8', a stiffening section 8 "'and a locking means in position 15 consisting of self-locking latches operable at the opening, independently or by means of a common operating lever.
  • the seat 9 is mounted on the frame 8 by means of eyelets 9 'in the form of straps, removable cut plates or removable folded tubes or the like, said eyelets 9' cooperating, on at least one side of the frame 8 with a 9 "hooking means, such as a hook or the like
  • a 9 "hooking means such as a hook or the like
  • This embodiment of the seat 9 makes it possible to very easily dismount it to favor the placement of a patient on the device or its transfer to a station 9 'or 9' eyelets for a pendular function of the seat 9 and thus different seat angle settings, and the seat 9 is advantageously provided in its rear edge with a recess 9 ". 'intended to allow access to a toilet bowl.
  • the postural change maneuvering means 10 is pivotably mounted on the frame 8, on the opposite side to the seat 9 and is preferably in the form of a U-shaped frame hinged to the corresponding end of the frame 8 via an axis 10 'and can be maintained in the operating position relative to the frame 8 by means of knurled screw clamping screws 16. Due to this hinge assembly of the 10 on the frame 8, the latter can be folded over the frame 8 in the non-use position of the device according to the invention, as shown in FIG. figure 12 attached drawings.
