Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of bedding and more particularly to adjustable bed bases.
  • a new sleeping device in several parts allowing a patient to lie down or to stand up by putting the feet on the ground with more ease.
  • an adjustable sleeping device comprising a fixed frame which extends in a longitudinal direction, a head end, a foot end and a central portion characterized in that the central portion is rotatably and rotatably mounted around an axis which may allow its elevation or descent if necessary and which causes due to its pivoting the tilting of the foot end to the ground.
  • the mobile frame is adjustable in inclination and the relative angle between the plane of the movable frame and the head part is modified so that the user or the carer must then frequently adjust the tilting of the head portion so that the bedridden patient is finally in a comfortable position.
  • the coating device according to the invention is a much simpler and more economical operation.
  • the device essentially comprises a fixed plane on which is subject the pivoting central part and the hinged head part and the part for the feet mounted by a hinge.
  • the part headstock is articulated on the central part by means of a movable mounting device in elevation such as a stand or a hinge.
  • the fixed plane further comprises a head portion which is adjustable in inclination so as to provide a lying patient the opportunity to straighten his chest and lean more conveniently.
  • the fixed frame also includes means for supporting a mattress disposed between the head portion and the foot end of the fixed frame.
  • the fixed plane according to the invention more particularly comprises a rectangular recessed portion, on one side, so that when the central portion comes into rotation, the foot portion due to its rotation abuts against the recess and unfolds downwards by tilting. On the contrary, when the central portion rotates to return to the longitudinal position the foot portion returns to the horizontal in the longitudinal direction.
  • This central part of the device plays an essential role because it ensures the easy pivoting of the central part, and if necessary the raising or lowering of this part and also the unfolding of the part of the foot which allows the Patient bed can rotate effortlessly at an angle of 45 to 90 °, and thus have an inclined foot portion facing outward, resting near or on the ground. In this way the bedridden patient can adopt a higher or lower position, let his feet slide and finally can put them on the ground.
  • the sleeping device may comprise longitudinally a guide rail, an angle bracket or a railing which allows the patient once he has placed his feet on the ground to have a support that allows him to stand up without excessive effort or to go back to bed safely.
  • the enormous advantage of the device according to the invention is in addition to its simplicity, the fact that it requires only a reduced motorization and that the central pivoting part is able to move between a low position and a high position, that is to say an autonomous way either with the assistance of a third person, especially a caregiver or even automatically thanks to an electric cylinder.
  • a bedridden patient and in particular a patient suffering from a motor handicap or a neuro-sensory handicap can initiate by itself a rotation of the central part of the bed to bring the foot part outwards, especially in the axis of the recess, which will cause the tilting of the foot part and its rest on the ground.
  • the fixed plane is formed of a rigid plate resting on the ground with at least four feet. The number of feet can be higher without any inconvenience.
  • the fixed plane comprises at each end a rounded portion on one of which the foot portion may rotate to engage the notched portion by means of a semicircular support.
  • the head portion is secured to the central portion by a crutch. It is maintained in inclination by one or more hinges.
  • This head plate has a recess for receiving a cushion, a pillow or a bolster and to hold it in place. If necessary this tray may include straps or straps so that the cushion or pillow is held in the up position without slipping or escaping.
  • the movable plane also has a flange extending longitudinally on each side to receive the necessary sleeping material such as mattress, pad, sheets and cover. As indicated above it will possibly include one or two circular rails to allow gripping.
  • the foot portion may also pivot on the opposite side and unfold so that the patient can place his legs on the side that is most favorable for his comfort.
  • the pivoting of the central portion must bring the part for the feet outwards, in particular in front of the notch and allows the tilting of this plate from the middle part.
  • This degree of tilting is purely a measure of convenience and is determined by the dimensions of the hinge which provides this tilting movement between the foot plate and the pivoting central portion.
  • the head portion also has a rim disposed at the rear, in the center of the plate so that said plate can come to rest completely horizontally in the case of a significant tilt. In this way the patient's head is protected and it is avoided that flattening can cause cervical problems for the patient.
  • the pivoting device is formed of a central rigid plate fixed to the rigid frame by a securing means such as bolting, screwing or riveting.
  • the moving part has a mass cylindrical diameter approximately equal to the width of the central portion and connected to the rigid plate by a pivoting axis. This pivoting axis is intended to ensure the pivoting of the assembly of 180 °, between the tilting of the foot portion in the non-indented portion and the foot portion having a notch.
  • This rotation may at the same time have the effect of raising the level of the central part by a certain height, in particular by 2 to 5 centimeters with respect to the fixed plane to facilitate rotation. It is obvious that the rotation could be greater or smaller depending on the dimensions of the thread according to the manner in which the pivoting base is mounted.
  • the rotation of the movable part can also be performed by driving by a roller itself motorized.
  • the height of the feet is adjustable and can come to any height without causing any difficulty.
  • the height of the bed will be adjusted so that it is possible to place suitcases or cardboard or a toilet instrument under the bed and thus the patient's room in the hospital, is not too crowded or that the patient's personal effects may remain accessible.
  • the moving parts are preferably of a rigid material such as wood, metal or a plastic material.
  • the three parts may also be made of metal sheet painted or lacquered or flocked so as to avoid any risk of oxidation and allow washing.
  • the base of each of the trays can be full, for example a wooden plate, it can also be perforated as perforated sheet or be in wire as a wire mesh. The important element is then the quality of the mattress that must allow regardless of the quality or nature of the different plates, that the comfort of the patient does not suffer from inconvenience and that the nature of the support is not likely to be a cause of bedsores or irritation.
  • the invention finds its use in hospitals, clinics, maternity hospitals or during home hospitalization to allow a patient with reduced mobility to be able to get up without effort from his bed and go back again and put the bed back up thanks to the motorization of the whole.
  • Figure 1 shows the sleeping device (1) seen in length. It comprises a base element (2) of substantially longitudinal shape, terminated by a flare, equipped with at least four legs (3) (3 '), (3 ") and (3"') subject to this element, and cut on the side by a longitudinal notch (4), on which is arranged a part for the head (6) of rectangular shape, a part for the feet of similar shape and size (7) and a pivoting central part (5) which causes in its rotation the part for the feet (7).
  • the head portion is provided with a framing device (8), and the central portion and the foot portion have on the periphery a thick rim (9) (9 ') for receiving the articles of bedding (not shown).
  • the head portion (6) and the central portion (5) are assembled by one or more hinges which ensure their maintenance, elevation and rotation.
  • a rectangular shaped tray terminated by semi-circular portion (10) which accompanies the portion for the feet (7) during its pivoting and contributes to its embedding in the notched part (4).
  • the base element (2) fixed in the longitudinal extension terminates in a plane element which supports feet (3) (3 ').
  • the sleeping element (1) is thus entirely movable above the fixed element (2) by pivoting at the same time the central portion (5) and the portion for the feet (7).
  • the portion for the head (6) is further movable in the vertical plane by another operation.
  • Figure 2 shows the pivoting of the sleeping element (1) and the tilting of the foot element (7) in the notch (4).
  • the central part (5) rests on the pivot axis (12) placed in the center of the fixed element.
  • Figure 3 shows the articulation of the various movable elements around the pivot axis (12).
  • the portion for the head (6) is secured to the central portion (5) by a stand (13) which holds it in place by a securing device such as a threaded rod and a nut.
  • the central portion is mounted on the pivot axis (12).
  • the foot part (7) normally remains in the same horizontal plane as the central part. There is furthermore the notch (4) for receiving the part for the feet (7).
  • the flange (9) (9 ') is visible on each side.
  • Figure 4 shows the sleeping element (1) in longitudinal position.
  • the head portion (6) is raised and the foot portion (7) is tilted away from the notch (4).
  • the rotation device (12) disposed on the fixed element (2) allows the central portion (5) and the foot part (7) to be pivoted by 90 °.
  • the portion for the head (6) is held in the upright position by a bracket (13).
  • the head portion (6) has a prismatic rim (14) at the back portion that prevents the head portion from fully flat on the fixed member.
  • Figure 5 shows the rotational coating device in which the foot portion (7) has tilted into the recess.
  • the foot part may have a ruler or a shelf at its end to allow a pose and a maintenance of the feet easier.
