Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the type of sling which is used when invalided/handicapped or temporarily immobile people are to be moved from A to B.
  • the energy transfer proper most generally takes place with the aid of a hoist.
  • a classical complaint in these hoists is the discomfort which occurs on lifting, where a patient is subjected to the sling cutting or chafing into the heels or on the rear and inside of the thigh.
  • the present invention constitutes an attempt to design a sling which imparts increased comfort to the patient and in general attempts to obviate this discomfort.
  • UK 2338222 is also designed with reference to an improvement of the comfort for the patient - but in this instance, is rather related to support to the patient's head.
  • lifting straps are secured to the sling in such a manner that the lifting force is distributed in the sling material and not along the edges of the sling. The result is a sling which is allegedly more comfortable to the patient.
  • the focus is in the first instance on the method by means of which the lifting straps are secured to the leg straps.
  • the method is based on the following:
  • the anchorage is secured consistently throughout the entire fixing area and not only in the outer sides, but symmetrically with millimetre distance in the entire area.
  • a larger supporting surface entails a plurality of consequences:
  • the sling In the sitting position, the sling is applied in two stages. One stage in which the back portion of the sling is pushed down along the back of the patient. Thereafter, there follows a stage where it is ensured that the cut between leg straps and back is correctly positioned, followed by the leg straps being passed under the legs of the patient.
  • the work involved in passing the leg straps under the legs of the patient is on many occasions heavy and circumstantial.
  • a pouch or pocket made of the same material as the sling proper.
  • the pocket covers exactly the anchorage proper and is approx. 10 - 15 cm deep or a depth covering the fixing area optimally.
  • the care provider places his hand into this pocket and with the flat of the hand presses down the substrate and simultaneously pushes the hand in under the thigh of the patient.
  • the smooth exterior side of the pocket will reduce friction against the substrate and the smooth fabric of the leg strap proper reduces the friction against the patient's thigh.
  • a number of alternative embodiments are shown which have the main idea of a pocket (9) on a strap (3) in common.
  • the outside of the pocket (9) has a smooth surface so that the friction will be low against other surfaces, such as the clothes or the skin of the patient or the material of a seat whereon the patient is sitting.
  • the pocket (9) may be constructed in various ways.
  • One characteristic which is found in most pockets (9) is that there is at least one open side edge, so that insertion of a hand will be possible. Also there is, in most cases, at least one closed side edge, for providing stability to the construction and making sure that the pocket (9) is attached to the strap (3).
  • the different embodiments accommodate for the different possibilities of use, and make sure that the sling (1) will be easy to use for the caregiver and comfortable for the patient.
  • the pocket (9) is open towards its top, as seen in the figure.
  • the hand is inserted into the pocket (9) in the direction of the arrow.
  • the sides of the pocket (9) are secured, e. g. by sewing, under the edge band (2) on each respective side of the pocket.
  • the pocket (9) is open on one side, next to the edge and the edge band (2) of the strap (3).
  • the hand may be inserted into the pocket (9) from the side.
  • Fig. 9c shows an embodiment where two pockets (9) are arranged on the strap (3), one on either side thereof.
  • Each pocket (9) has an opening on one side thereof, and a hand may be inserted into either of the pockets (9), depending on which pocket (9) is the most convenient to use at a particular point in time.
  • This embodiment also makes it easier to place the strap (3) independently of on which side of the patient the caregiver is standing, whether the caregiver is right-handed or left-handed etc.
  • the embodiment in fig. 9d also provides a similar independence of the position of the caregiver in relation to the patient, and of the right-handedness or left-handedness of the caregiver.
  • the pocket (9) has openings from two opposite edges, close to the edge bands (2), on the same side of the strap (3). The openings may be used as alternatives or simultaneously.
  • Fig. 9f discloses an embodiment where there are three openings, from three different directions. There could either be one single pocket with three openings or two or more pockets arranged in layers on one side of the strap (3).
  • a reinforcement band (10) is arranged along at least one of the edges of one or more of the pockets (9).
  • the pockets (9) need not be completely overlapping, and could, in some embodiments be arranged in such positions that they are not overlapping at all.
  • a reinforcement band (10) is arranged along the edge of a pocket (9) which is similar to the pocket according to fig. 9a . It should be noted that the ends of the reinforcement band (10) are covered by the edge bands (2).
  • Fig. 9h discloses an embodiment where a pocket (9) has two openings, which are both arranged at an angle to the longitudinal direction of the strap (3). This will ensure the independence of the position of the caregiver in relation to the patient, and of the right-handedness or left-handedness of the caregiver, as described above.
  • a reinforcement band (10) extending in the longitudinal direction of the strap (3), on the outside of the pocket (9).
  • the general arrangement of the pocket in the embodiment according to fig. 9i corresponds to that of the embodiments according to the embodiments according to fig. 9a and 9g .
  • the material of the strap (3) and of the pocket (9) is such that it has been possible to dispense with the edge band (2).
  • the material of the pocket (9) is divided into an upper and a lower part as seen in the drawing.
  • the division or open part of the pocket (9) could be more or less extensive, as long as the function of a low friction against other surfaces is maintained and the strap (3) is easily directed with the aid of the hand.
