Abstract
Description
- The present invention generally relates to a turning system for beds such as hospital beds. The present invention more particularly relates to a turning system configured to be integrated in a bed.
- It is known to apply hospital beds and home care beds with side rails and an integrated, electrically driven turning sheet (which may be mounted with drive rollers extending along the length of the bed and being arranged at each side of the bed). The turning sheet is used to assist the nursing staff when the bed-bound person has to be turned. It is known to use the hospital and care beds with side rails rotatably mounted on a longitudinal console provided with arms, wherein the side rails are adapted to be locked in different positions by means of locking devices.
- A slide sheet that is attached to the surface of the bed by means of straps provided with Velcro is attached to the mattress under the turning sheet. To ensure that the patient does not fall out or get caught when the turning function is not used, the side rails are raised to their highest position and locked in this position. The turning function can be performed with raised side rails or lowered side rails.
- The locking arrangement comprises four locks arranged pairwise in different ends of the turning device. Two of the locks have to be activated simultaneously in each end in order to change the position of the drive rollers. Accordingly, one of the locks and in a short time period both locks are unlocked. This is inappropriate with regard to patient safety.
- Therefore, it is desirable to be capable of changing the position of the drive rollers without leaving the locks unlocked and hereby pose a risk to the patient.
- Lowering of the side rail poses a risk of getting caught due to the position of the locks when they approach each other during the lowering. The safety distance between the lower edge of the drive roller and the mattress may not be complied with when using high mattresses.
- It is furthermore desirable to reduce or eliminate the risk of getting caught during lowering of the side rail.
- When adjusting home care or hospital beds with a heavy patient, the shape of the support surface of the bed will change into an upwards or downwards arched configuration. This may affect the equipment attached to the turning device negatively because it is affected by the movements in the frame of the support surface and the height adjustment brackets. When having to get out of a hospital or home care bed, a patient with increased risk of pressure sores may be harmed by sharp edges and protrusions.
- Application of this turning device applied on an extended home care or hospital bed requires that the turning device is capable of being extended towards the extended part of the bed to such an extent that the prescribed safety distances are complied with.
- Accordingly, it is desirable to be able to extend the turning device towards the extended part of the bed to such an extent that the prescribed safety distances are complied with.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a turning device, by which it is possible to change the position of the drive rollers without leaving the locks unlocked and hereby pose a risk to the patient.
- It is also an object of the present invention to provide a turning device, wherein the risk of getting caught during lowering of the side rail can be reduced or eliminated.
- It is further an object of the present invention to provide a turning device, wherein the turning device can be extended towards the extended part of the bed to such an extent that the prescribed safety distances are complied with.
- The object of the present invention can be achieved by a turning device as defined in
claim 1. Preferred embodiments are defined in the dependent sub claims, explained in the following description and illustrated in the accompanying drawings. - The turning device according to the invention is a turning device for hospital beds and home care beds, wherein the turning device comprises a side rail rotatably attached on a longitudinal console by means of arms, wherein the side rail comprises a sheet roller for a turning sheet, wherein the side rail is configured to be locked in different positions by means of one or more first locks, wherein the arms are mechanically connected to a shaft, wherein the side rail is configured to be rotated about the shaft and locked in additional positions by means of additional locks, wherein the locks are positioned in such a manner that all locks can be operated from a single position.
- Hereby, it is possible to provide a turning device allowing to change the position of the drive rollers without leaving the locks unlocked. Accordingly, the risk of the patient falling out of the bed can be eliminated.
- In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the locks are positioned in such a manner that all locks can be operated from a single position at about the midpoint of the turning device.
- Hereby, it is possible to provide a turning device allowing for changing the position of the drive rollers from a single position at about the midpoint of the turning device.
- It may be an advantage that the side rail comprises a slide by means of which slide, the side rail is configured to be extended.
- Hereby, it is possible to provide a turning device in which the side rail can be extended towards the extended part of the bed to such an extent that the prescribed safety distances are complied with.
- In one embodiment according to the invention, the console comprises a slide by means of which the console can be extended.
- Hereby, it is possible to extend the length of the console when desired.
- In a further embodiment according to the invention, the first locks are offset relative to the additional locks in such a manner that the risk of getting caught during lowering of the side rail is reduced.
- Hereby, the risk of getting caught during the lowering of the side rail can be reduced.
- It may be an advantage that the locks are shaped as spring-loaded housings. The loaded springs prevent the locks from being unintentionally open. Hereby, patient safety can be enhanced.
- It may be advantageous that the additional locks are configured to lock the side rail in a position in which the sheet roller is arranged as the lowermost part of the side rail.
- It may be beneficial that the additional locks are configured to lock the side rail in a position in which the sheet roller is arranged as the uppermost part of the side rail.
- It may be an advantage that the additional locks are configured to lock the side rail in a position in which the sheet roller is arranged as the uppermost part of the side rail, when the side rail is lowered.
- Hereby, it is possible to apply the sheet roller when the side rail is lowered. Accordingly, it is possible to handle a patient (e.g. help a patient out of the bed) while the side rail is lowered.
- It may be an advantage that the turning device comprises a seat bench that is attached to the console.
- It may be beneficial that the turning device comprises a gas spring configured to reduce the load and hereby assist the user during the lowering of the turning device, wherein the gas spring is arranged between the side rail and the console. Hereby, the gas spring eases the handling task of the staff operating the turning device.
- It may be advantageous that the turning device comprises two first locks and two additional locks, wherein the distance between the first locks is shorter than the distance between the additional locks.
- It may be beneficial that the side rail is rotatably attached to the longitudinal console by means of two arms. Hereby, a robust, simple and user-friendly construction can be achieved.
- It is an advantage that the turning device comprises a side rail having a sheet roller for a turning sheet since this enables an easy and efficient way of turning patients.
