Definitions

  • Safety device for belts of the type comprising at least two bases, a bottom one and a top removable one that defines a housing inside it, a rod integral to the bottom base which attaches to the top base, a key with first magnetic means that is provided on the top base and in that it comprises: a groove around the rod, which when the rod is attached to the top base remains inside the top base, in the housing, some locking means, with two opposite metallic strips, in the housing, which in the locked position fit inside the groove, characterised in that it comprises: some second magnetic means inside the housing, provided under the strips with a lesser attraction force than the first magnetic means of the key, and some retaining means that retain the strips, located above said strips and which come into contact with said strips at point P, where in the locked position said strips due to the action of the second magnetic means fit inside the groove preventing the release of the rod from inside the housing and where in the unlocked position, the first magnetic means overcome the attraction of the second magnetic means on the strips attracting the strips that swing on point P, with said strips releasing themselves from inside the
  • Utility Model No. 201230982 ( ES1077804 ) "SAFETY CATCH FOR PATIENT SUPPORT BELTS WITH COIN-OPERATED OPENING", from the year 2012, in the name of UBIOTEX ESPANA, S.L., which relates to a safety catch for patient support belts with coin-operated opening characterised in that it consists of a cylindrical rod with a circular base where the axis has a longitudinal groove and another circular periphery groove near its flat end and a pivot in the shape of a cylindrical ring with a side groove and a central circular hole for attaching the rod. Inside this ring has a V-shaped spring or hook held by two pins one in the apex of the V and another surrounded by one of its ends while the other end is free.
  • button catches are known, like Spanish Industrial Model No. 136873, from the year 1996, in the name of the same applicant company, which consists of a body and a cover and adopts an octagonal prism shape with rounded edges, with a low height with respect to its maximum scale, and which on one of its bases has a slight circular groove that covers practically the whole surface and on the other base has a circular hole with a small diameter, centred with respect to the octagonal surface.
  • the cover is released from the body using a magnetised key.
  • the button catches in general consist of a lower base integral with a rod, with the rod being inserted into the top base and being released by means of a key that comprises a magnet, as illustrated in the above-mentioned Industrial Model.
  • Patent US5600977 "MAGNETIC LOCKING DEVICE”, in the name of PINEL MEDICAL INC, from the year 1995, which relates to a locking device that has a non-magnetic pin and a button, the non-magnetic pin has a base and a rod projecting in the perpendicular direction therefrom, which extends to a free end, with a toothed part near the free end.
  • the button is a closed, non-magnetic unit, that has a hole in the lower surface adapted to receive the free end of the rod, and it also comprises a plurality of locking plates each one supported on an outer part by a compressible support material, and adapted to retain the pin in the toothed part in a locked position inside the button, and to rotate upwards and release the pin in response to a magnetic force directed at the top surface of the button.
  • the magnetic force can be applied by a magnet provided inside a key adapted to fit on the button.
  • Patent US5600977 The closest document is Patent US5600977 .Said document comments on the problems of the risk of interferences by the magnets with other equipment. Therefore it configures a key with some magnets which when coupled to the button is configured to reduce the distances between the key magnet and the button, this way it can reduce the magnetic capacity of the actual magnet and prevent the risk of interferences.
  • Another problem is positioning the strips, because, due to the action of the magnet and the foam they move to the point that they stop working properly, because when the foam decompresses, it pushes the strips randomly.
  • this device can get wet, it can be used immersed in water with the patient, and the patient can be bathed with detergent, etc., as there is no foam to deteriorate.
  • the strips never lose their position, they are always well placed, because the retaining means act on them and prevent them from moving.
  • Another advantage of this invention is that with this arrangement the strips, in the locked position, are at rest, which is the position they are going to be in usually, going into the rest position automatically when the key is removed from the top base.
  • An object of this invention is a safety device for belts, of the type comprising at least two bases, a lower one and a top removable one that defines a housing inside it, a rod integral to the lower base which attaches to the top base, a key with first magnetic means provided on the top base and in that it comprises: a groove around the rod, which when the rod is attached to the top base, remains inside the top base, in the housing, some locking means, with two opposite metallic strips, in the housing, which in the locked position fit inside the groove, characterised in that it comprises: some second magnetic means inside the housing, provided under the strips with a lesser attraction force than the first magnetic means of the key, and some retaining means that retain the strips, located above said strips and which come into contact with said strips at point P, where in the locked position said strips, due to the action of the second magnetic means fit inside the groove preventing the release of the rod inside the housing and where in the unlocked position, the first magnetic means overcome the attraction of the second magnetic means on the strips attracting the strips swinging at point P, with
  • Figure 1 shows a bottom base 1 with its rod 3, a top base 2 and a key 31.
  • Figure 2 illustrates bottom base 1 with its rod 3 and a groove 5, a top base 2 with a housing 30 inside which some strips 8, 9 are provided comprising notches 39 and projections 35, some retaining means 34, some perforations 36, key 31 with some first magnetic means 32.
  • Figure 3 shows top base 2, rod 3, housing 30, strips 8, 9 with their notches 39, some second magnetic means 33 and some separating means 40.
  • Figure 4 illustrates bottom base 1 with its rod 3 and groove 5, top base 2 with housing 30 inside which strips 8, 9 are arranged comprising notches 39 and projections 35, retaining means 34, and perforations 36.
  • Figure 5 shows top base 2, rod 3, housing 30, strips 8, 9 with their notches 39, second magnetic means 33 and separating means 40.
  • Figure 6 shows bottom base 1, rod 3 with its milled part 37, and top base 2 with the opening 38.
  • top base 2 has been given a numeral reference to point out that it forms a unit. In terms of construction, it can be made up of two structures (top housing and bottom housing) which can be seen in some figures and which when joined define the housing 30. As this is known, and in order to facilitate reading, the whole ensemble has been called top base 2.
  • the device that is the object of this invention would function in the following way.
  • strips 8 and 9 are fitted into groove 5 of rod 3. This way, if it were attempted to separate top base 2 from the bottom 1, it would not be possible, since strips 8 and 9, which are locking rod 3, would not release rod 3, as said strips 8, 9 are also locked by the second magnetic means 33 (for example magnets).
  • the locking means that are two metallic, opposite strips (8, 9), are located inside housing 30.
  • second magnetic means 33 inside housing 30, provided under strips 8, 9 with a lesser attraction force than the first magnetic means 32 of key 31.
  • magnetic means 32 This characteristic of magnetic means 32 is very important as this way it is possible for first magnetic means 32 to overcome the attraction towards strips 8, 9 by second magnetic means 33.
  • Retaining means 34 that retain strips 8, 9 ( Fig. 2 and 4 ), are provided above said strips 8, 9 and come into contact with said strips 8, 9 at point P.
  • first magnetic means 32 provided in key 31 overcome the attraction of second magnetic means 33 on strips 8, 9, attracting towards said first magnetic means 32 strips 8, 9 that swing at point P, releasing said strips 8, 9 from inside groove 5 and also releasing rod 3 from top base 2.
  • retaining means 34 fulfil the function of allowing a part of strips 8, 9, the part that is inside groove 5, to rise, but on the other hand, the retaining means prevent the whole strip 8, 9 from being attracted, by influencing on point P, with strips 8, 9 therefore swinging as shown in Figure 3 .
  • strips 8, 9 optionally comprise a projection 35 on which strips 8, 9 swing in the locking-unlocking movements, which facilitate the swinging movement, with respect to the base on which strips 8, 9 rest.
  • strips 8, 9 comprise respective notches 39 on their top surface for housing one part of retaining means 34, with said point P being located in the inside thereof. This way, strips 8, 9 will stay in their position more reliably, with the exception of the swinging movement.
  • Said retaining means 34 could be made in the same material used for top base 2.
  • Said top base 2 could be made in a resistant material.
  • resistant materials There is a wide range of resistant materials and, merely as a non-limiting example, some kind of metal, hardened plastic, etc. could be used.
  • one of the problems that is overcome with this invention is the fact that as the foam does not exist, there is no problem of water possibly entering housing 30.
  • top base 2 optionally, in top base 2 to make holes 36 that connect housing 30 with the outside.
  • said perforations 36 would be provided in the bottom of top base 2, to facilitate the complete drainage of housing 30.
  • rod 3 comprises at least one milled part 37, at least on the part inserted into top base 2.
  • Said top base 2 comprises an opening 38 with a perimeter which is the one that the milled part 37 of rod 3 defines. This way rotation of rod 3 with respect to top base 2 is avoided.
  • Strips 8, 9 adopt a half-moon configuration, in this embodiment, since the shape of top base 2 is cylindrical.
  • first magnetic means 32 have a stronger attraction force than second magnetic means 33 they attract strips 8, 9 which, as indicated above, are metallic, and they tilt, coming out of groove 5.
  • strips 8, 9 only tilt, due to the effect on them by retaining means 34, that retain strips 8, 9 at point P and prevent them from moving.
  • rod 3 is free and it can be removed from inside top base 2.
  • rod 3 would be inserted through opening 38 (milled as shown in Figure 6 or not milled) and it would be pushed inside until it overcomes the resistance of strips 8, 9.
  • strips 8, 9 are repositioned by placing a part of them inside groove 5, obtaining the rest position, and accordingly leaving rod 3 locked inside top housing 2 by strips 8, 9.
  • This invention describes a new safety device for belts.
  • the examples mentioned herein are non-limiting of the present invention, therefore it can have different applications and/or adaptations, all within the scope of the following claims.
