  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the turning device 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.
  • 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.
  • the side rail comprises a slide by means of which slide, the side rail is configured to be extended.
  • the console comprises a slide by means of which the console can be extended.
  • 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.
  • the locks are shaped as spring-loaded housings.
  • the loaded springs prevent the locks from being unintentionally open. Hereby, patient safety can be enhanced.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • the turning device comprises a seat bench that is attached to the console.
  • 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.
  • the gas spring eases the handling task of the staff operating the turning device.
  • 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.
  • the side rail is rotatably attached to the longitudinal console by means of two arms.
  • a robust, simple and user-friendly construction can be achieved.
  • 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.
  • a turning device 15 of the present invention is illustrated in Fig. 1 .
  • Fig. 1 illustrates a schematic perspective side view of a turning device 15 according to the invention.
  • the turning device 15 comprises a side rail 3 with a sheet roller 5 for a turning sheet.
  • the side rail is rotatably attached to a longitudinal console 10 by means of two arms 18, 18' that are configured to be locked in different positions by means of first locks 7,9.
  • the arms 18, 18' are mechanically connected to a shaft, about which shaft the side rail is configured to be rotated.
  • the side rail 3 can be locked in additional positions by means of additional locks 2, 4.
  • the locks 2, 4, 7, 9 are arranged in such a manner that they can be accessed and operated from a single position at about the midline of the turning device 15.
  • the position of the locks 2, 4, 7, 9 close to the central area of the turning device 15, makes it possible for the operator to reach all four locks 2, 4, 7, 9 from the same position at the midline of the turning device 15.
  • the four locks 2, 4, 7, 9 are arranged in a configuration in which the uppermost locks 2, 4 and the lowermost locks 7, 9 are offset relative to each other.
  • the locks 2, 4, 7, 9 are made as spring-loaded constructions that can resist large loads.
  • the spring-loaded constructions prevent the locks 2, 4, 7, 9 from unintentionally being left in an unlocked configuration, hereby increasing patient safety.
  • the turning device 15 is attached to a strong console 10, on which a height adjustment bracket 8 and a seat bench 13 are mounted.
  • the console 10 is an open construction comprising a telescopic slide 6 configured to extend the console 10. If desired, when the system(turning device 15) is lowered to the position C (see Fig. 5 ) and back again to position A (see Fig. 2 ), the load may be reduced by arranging a gas spring 16 between the side rail 3 and the console 10.
  • the side rail 3 is an open pipe construction comprising a slide 1.
  • an easy length extension can be provided when the system (turning device 15) is applied on extended home care beds or hospital beds.
  • the side rail 3 and the turning device 15 are arranged on a strong console 10, onto which a height adjustment bracket 8 and a seat bench 13 are mounted.
  • the strong console 10 has two functions. First of all, the console 10 ensures the turning device complies with the prescribed safety distances when a bed has a thick mattress requiring a high position in the bed. Secondly, the console 10 secures that the turning device 15 is not affected by forces from a bed with a heavy patient.
  • the console 10, moreover, is equipped with a slide 6 that ensures that the turning device complies with the prescribed safety distances when using the turning device 15 with an extended home care bed or hospital bed.
  • the seat bench 19 is placed at the central part of the console 10 and reduces the risk of harming the patient during passage.
  • the locks 2, 4, 7, 9 may be manufactured in metal, such as steel or in a composite material with the purpose of improving their function and durability.
  • the turning device 15 is constructed in a manner in which it complies with the prescribed safety distances for moveable parts.
  • the side rail 3 and the slide 1 function as a covering of the sheet roller 5 in such a manner that the prescribed safety distances are complies with.
  • the side rail 3 may be produced in metal such as steel.
  • the sheet roller 5 may be manufactured in metal such as steel e.g. having a diameter of 62 mm or less.
  • the height adjustment bracket 8 may be manufactured in metal such as steel.

  • Fig. 8 illustrates a schematic view of the turning device 15 according to the invention mounted on a bed.
  • the lock mechanism comprises four locks arranged in the centres of rotation 11, 12. These locks are arranged close to the midline of the turning device 15. Accordingly, the care assistants can reach all locks from a single position at the midline of the turning device 15. Since both locks arranged at the centres of rotation 11, 12 (for the desired motion) are required to be unlocked in order to change the position of the turning device 15, the patient safety is improved due to the fact that the care assistant does not have to move away from the patient. Application of the turning device 15 will be experienced as easier, more secure and comfortable for the patient.
  • the two centres of rotation 11, 12 enable three working positions A, B and C for the turning device 15. This is shown in Fig. 2, Fig. 3 and Fig. 5 .
  • the side rail positon A (see Fig. 2 ) is a working position.
  • the side rail positon B (see Fig. 3 ) is another working position.
  • the lowermost locks 7, 9 are used during the lowering of the turning device 15 in order to allow the patient to get out of the bed (see Fig. 5 ) corresponding to working position C.
  • Fig. 9 and Fig. 10 show that the side rail 3 is an open pipe construction in which a telescopic slide 1 is slidably mounted so that length extension may be carried out. It can further be seen that the console 10 comprises a slide 6 that enables length adjustment.
