  • suitable casters with corresponding steering and/or braking assembly, for suitably displacing the hospital bed from one location to another.
  • the different components and features which could be used for the base structure and the patient support platform are very well known in the art.
  • the base structure is not considered an essential component of the present invention for the side rail may be properly operated along a patient support assembly not provided with a base structure, as apparent to a person skilled in the art.
  • each side rail 1 extends substantially along the x-axis 5 of the patient support assembly 3 and is operatively mountable onto a corresponding side portion 15 of the patient support assembly 3.
  • each side rail 1 comprises a first support bar 21 having upper and lower ends 23, 25, the lower end 25 of the first support bar 21 being pivotally mountable to said corresponding side portion 15 of the patient support assembly 3; a second support bar 27 having upper and lower ends 29, 31, the lower end 31 of the second support bar 27 being pivotally mountable to said corresponding side portion 15 of the patient support assembly 3; and at least one cross bar 33 having first and second ends 35, 37 pivotally connected to the first and second support bars 21, 27 respectively, as can be more easily understood when referring to Figure 2.
  • the side rail 1 is operable between a raised configuration where the at least one cross bar 33 is above a segment of the patient support assembly 3 for preventing egress of the patient from the assembly 3, and a lowered configuration where said at least one cross bar 33 is below said segment of the patient support assembly 3 for allowing egress of the patient from the assembly 3.
  • an important feature of the present invention resides in that the support bars 21, 27 and the at least one cross bar 33 of the side rail 1 are substantially positioned within a same vertical plane, being substantially parallel to the corresponding side portion 15 of the patient support assembly 3, and that the first and second support bars 21, 27 are rotatable with respect to said corresponding side portion 15 about respective axes 39, 41 being parallel to the y-axis 7, and the first and second ends 35, 37 of the at least one cross bar 33 are rotatable with respect to the support bars 21, 27 about respective axes 43, 45 being parallel to the y-axis 7, so that the side rail 1 be operated between the raised and lowered configurations along said same vertical plane and so that the side rail 1 be collapsible in the lowered configuration, within said same vertical plane, as better shown in Figure 3d.
  • the side rail 1 when in the lowered configuration takes very little space due to its collapsible nature, thereby allowing an operator of the assembly 3 to have access to underneath the patient support platform and/or for a patient to be seated comfortably thereon.
  • the different ends and portions of the support bars 21, 27 and cross bars 33 may be provided with suitable fasteners, joints, flanges, connectors, pins, hinges, coverings, and/or the like, in order to enable the side rail 1 to be easily, safely and smoothly operated between the raised and lowered configurations, and to be suitably collapsible (e.g. occupy a minimal space, be positioned conveniently along the patient support assembly 3, etc.) in the lowered configuration, as apparent to a person skilled in the art.
  • the side rail 1 comprises a pivot bar 47 having first and second ends 49, 51, the first end 49 of the pivot bar 47 being pivotally mountable about said corresponding side portion 15 of the patient support assembly 3 and being rotatable thereabout about an axis 53 parallel to the y-axis 7, and the second end 51 of the pivot bar 47 being pivotally connected to the lower end 31 of the second support bar 27 and being rotatable thereabout about an axis 55 parallel to the y-axis 7, the pivot bar 47 being shaped, positioned and dimensioned so as to prevent the side rail 1 from exceeding a predetermined distance longitudinally along the patient support assembly 3 when operated and collapsed into the lowered configuration.
  • a pivot bar 47 in the manner described above enables namely the side rail 1 to not exceed beyond the front or rear portion of the hospital bed when in a lowered configuration, which is very desirable for various reasons known in the art, particularly in regards to guidance standards in terms of implementation of bed rails.
  • the lower end 25 of the first support bar 21 is provided with blocking means 57 cooperable with the patient support assembly 3, and operable between a blocking configuration where the blocking means 57 are engaged with the assembly 3 and maintain the side rail 1 in a raised configuration, as illustrated in Figure 3a, and a release configuration where the blocking means 57 are disengaged from the assembly 3 for allowing the side rail 1 to be operated into a lowered configuration, as shown in Figures 3c-3e.

  • the blocking means 57 comprise biasing means 63 (e.g. a spring) operatively connected to the locking pin 59 for biasing the same into the hole of the plate 61.
  • the blocking means 57 may comprise other suitable components, such as bearings, fasteners, etc., operatively connected to one another, in a suitable manner, as apparent to a person skilled in the art, for properly biasing the locking pin 59 in the hole of the plate 61, as well as for damping certain components for example, namely, for adjustably and/or controllably governing the rate of rotation (particularly, during lowering) of the side rail 1. It is worth mentioning that these components, although very advantageous, are not essential to the present invention.
  • the biasing means 63, locking pin 59 and plate 61 are positioned, shaped and sized with respect to one another to enable the blocking means 57 to be automatically triggered into the blocking configuration when the side rail 1 is operated back into the raised configuration from an intermediate configuration. This corresponds to the configuration illustrated in Figure 3a.
  • the locking pin 59 has a second extremity, opposite to the first extremity, which is preferably provided with a knob 65 for enabling an operator of the assembly 3 to pull on said knob 65 for urging the locking pin 59 away from the hole of the plate 61.
  • the operator may pivot the side rail 1 easily and safety towards the outer portion of the bed until its lowered configuration is reached, the side rail 1 being devised to be pivoted along a same vertical plane, as described above.

  • This particular feature is particularly advantageous in that it enables namely to substantially reduce the risk of entrapment which easily occurs with conventional side rails.
  • the at least one side rail may simply comprises first and second side rails 1, the first side rail 1 being operatively connected onto the left side portion 15l of the hospital bed, and the second side rail 1 being operatively connected onto the right side portion 15r of the hospital bed.
  • the first and second side rails 1 may be diametrically opposed to one another, so as to ensure a certain symmetry along the longitudinal axis 5 of the hospital bed, but may alternatively, if the particular applications of the bed intend it as such, the side rails 1 may be positioned diagonally opposed to one another.
  • the preferred embodiment of the side rail 1 illustrated in the accompanying drawings is preferably intended for minimizing components and assembling steps, while providing a suitable side rail 1 for properly and selectively preventing and allowing egress of the patient from the hospital bed.
  • the method of operating a side rail 1 of a hospital bed preferably comprises the steps of a) providing a hospital bed such as the one described herein, with the at least one side rail 1 being in the raised configuration (see Figure 3a); b) pulling on the knob 65 for operating the blocking means 57 into a released configuration (see Figure 3b); and c) rotating the support bars 21, 27 of the at least one side rail 1 (e.g. via the cross bar 33) within said same vertical plane so as to operate in collapse said at least one side rail 1 into the lowered configuration (see Figures 3c and 3d).
  • the reverse of the above-mentioned method of operating a side rail 1 of a hospital bed would preferably comprise the steps of a) providing the hospital bed with at least one side rail 1 being in the lowered configuration; and b) rotating the support bars 21, 27 of the at least one side rail 1 (e.g. via the same cross bar 33) within said same vertical plane until triggering the blocking means 57 into a blocking configuration so as to operate said at least one side rail 1 into the raised configuration.
  • kits for assembling a side rail 1 and corresponding hospital bed such as the ones described and illustrated herein, as exemplified in Figures 1 to 4.
  • the present invention is a substantial improvement over the prior art in that by virtue of its design and components, the side rail 1 according to the present invention may be easily installed onto a patient support assembly, such as a hospital bed, a stretcher and the like for example, and is devised so as to be easily, quickly and safely operated between raised and lowered configurations. Furthermore, the present invention is also advantageous in that, by virtue of its design and components, fewer components are required for achieving the same result as with conventional side rails, thus resulting in substantial savings.
  • the present invention is also advantageous in that the side rail 1 may be released from its blocking means simply by pulling the knob 65, so as to be rotated and operated between configurations, and may triggered back into a blocking configuration automatically when rotated back into a raised configuration.
  • the present invention is also a substantial improvement over the prior art in that, by virtue of its design and components, a constant distance is maintained between the first support bars 21 of neighboring first and second side rails 1 when in the raised configuration, irrespectively of configuration assumed by the patient support platform, thereby substantially reducing the risk of entrapment for patients.
