Abstract

The equipment consists of an upright column (3) mounted on a support base (1), with a pivotable arm (4) controlled by an intermediate jack (6) to move relative to the column about a horizontal axis. The free end of the arm has a connector for a patient support hanger (5). The jack is mounted between a point on the column and a point on the arm on the other side of the pivot axis relative to the patient hanger. The column is inclined relative to the base by an obtuse angle (a) on the side closest to the patient hanger, defining a volume (E) free of structure in which the patient may be handled.

Description

La présente invention concerne un appareil de manutention de patient destiné à soulever et transférer des personnes handicapéee ou malades. The present invention relates to a patient handling device for lifting and transferring disabled or sick people.

On connaît déjà de tels appareils. Ils sont généralement constituée d'une embase qui est montée sur roulettes et qui porte une colonne. Sur la colonne, est monté un bras de oulevement l'extrémité duquel on a prévu des moyens de retenue du patient. Le bras est monté sur la colonne de manière ce que les moyens de retenus puissent autre abaissés ou élevés. We already know such devices. They generally consist of a base which is mounted on casters and which carries a column. A lifting arm is mounted on the column, the end of which means for retaining the patient have been provided. The arm is mounted on the column so that the retaining means can further lowered or raised.

I1 existe deux types d'appareil de manutention selon que le bras de soulèvement est monté à pivotent sur la colonne ou, au contraire, coulissement sur la colonne. There are two types of handling device depending on whether the lifting arm is mounted to pivot on the column or, on the contrary, to slide on the column.

Dans le premier cas, le bras peut pivoter autour d'un axe horizontal prévu sur la colonne et un vérin commande le pivotement dudit bras. Ce vérin a une extrémité qui est montée sur la colonne et l'autre extrémité qui est montée sur le bras, entre 1' extrémité libre dudit bras et la colonne. Un exemple de ce type d'appareil est décrit dans le document de brevet ZP-A-443.  In the first case, the arm can pivot around a horizontal axis provided on the column and a jack controls the pivoting of said arm. This cylinder has one end which is mounted on the column and the other end which is mounted on the arm, between one free end of said arm and the column. An example of this type of device is described in patent document ZP-A-443.

Dans le second cas, le bras coulisse le long de la colonne au moyen d'un vérin qui est monté l'intérieur de la colonne. Le document de brevet FR-A-2 682 872 montre un appareil de manutention de patient qui est de ce type. In the second case, the arm slides along the column by means of a jack which is mounted inside the column. Patent document FR-A-2 682 872 shows a patient handling device which is of this type.

L'avantage du premier type d'appareil est qu'il autorise des débattements en hauteur des moyens de retenue montés I'extrémit8 libre du bras qui sont superieurs ceux qu'autorise un appareil du second type. Par contre, il présente l'inconvénient que le vérin de soulèvement se trouve dans l'espace de soulèvement dans lequel bvolue le patient. I1 en résulte que l'espace effectif de soulèvement est réduit et il arrive par conséquent souvent que le patient heurte le vérin. Les appareils du second type ne pr4sentent pas cet inconvénient dans la mesure où le vérin se trouve dans la colonne. The advantage of the first type of device is that it allows deflections in height of the retaining means mounted on the free end of the arm which are greater than those authorized by a device of the second type. By cons, it has the disadvantage that the lifting cylinder is located in the lifting space in which bvolue the patient. As a result, the effective lifting space is reduced and it therefore often happens that the patient strikes the jack. Apparatuses of the second type do not have this drawback insofar as the jack is in the column.

Néanmoins, de part leur conception, ces derniers ont également un espace de soulèvement réduit.However, due to their design, they also have a reduced lifting space.

Le but de l'invention est de proposer un appareil de manutention de patient tel qu'il vient d'être décrit mais dont l'espace de soulèvement n'est pas réduit.  The object of the invention is to provide a patient handling device as just described but whose lifting space is not reduced.

Pour ce faire, l'appareil de manutention selon l'invention est du type qui comprend une embase, une colonne montée sur ladite embase et un bras prévu pour pouvoir pivoter, sous l'action d'un vérin, autour d'un axe de pivotement horizontal porté par ladite colonne. Il est caractérisé en ce que ledit vérin est monté entre ladite colonne et un point dudit bras opposé, par rapport audit axe de pivotement, l'extrémité qui reçoit lesdits moyens de retenue du patient. To do this, the handling device according to the invention is of the type which comprises a base, a column mounted on said base and an arm designed to be able to pivot, under the action of a jack, around an axis of horizontal pivoting carried by said column. It is characterized in that said jack is mounted between said column and a point on said opposite arm, with respect to said pivot axis, the end which receives said patient retaining means.

Ainsi, l'appareil selon l'invention est du type dont les débattements en hauteur sont les plus importants. Mais, contrairement aux appareils de l'art antérieur, le corps du vérin ne constitue pas une gêne et une limite dans l'espace où évolue le patient soulevé, c'est- & -dire devant la colonne. I1 est en effet placé derrière la colonne et est en quelque sorte, pour le patient, caché par la colonne. Thus, the device according to the invention is of the type whose deflections in height are the largest. But, unlike the devices of the prior art, the body of the jack does not constitute discomfort and a limit in the space in which the patient lifted, that is to say in front of the column. It is in fact placed behind the column and is in a way, for the patient, hidden by the column.

On a de plus remarqué que, dans la pratique, le débattement en hauteur de l'extrémité du bras est supérieur, pour un appareil selon l'invention, au débattement obtenu avec les appareils de l'art antérieur, tels que celui qui est décrit dans le document de brevet EP-A-443.  It has moreover been noted that, in practice, the clearance in height of the end of the arm is greater, for a device according to the invention, than the clearance obtained with the devices of the prior art, such as that which is described in patent document EP-A-443.

Afin d'améliorer la répartition des charges, notamment lorsqu'un patient est transporté avec l'appareil, ladite colonne est montée inclinée vers 1 'embase de manière à former un angle obtus entre l'embase et la colonne dans l'espace où peuvent évoluer lesdits moyens de retenue soutenant le patient. In order to improve the distribution of loads, in particular when a patient is transported with the device, said column is mounted inclined towards the base so as to form an obtuse angle between the base and the column in the space where evolve said retaining means supporting the patient.

Les caractéristiques de l'invention apparaîtront plus clairement à la lecture de la description suivante d'un exemple de réalisation, ladite description étant faite en relation avec le dessin joint dont la Fig. unique est une vue en élévation. The characteristics of the invention will appear more clearly on reading the following description of an exemplary embodiment, said description being made in relation to the attached drawing, in which FIG. unique is an elevation view.

L'appareil de la Fig. unique est constitué d'une embase 1 qui est par exemple en forme de U avec deux longerons horizontaux latéraux (seul celui la qui est au premier plan est viciable sur la
Fig. unique) et une bme lb. L'embase 1 est avantageusement montée sur des roulettes 2 qui permettent le déplacement de l'appareil. Ces roulettes 2 peuvent être pivotantes selon un axe vertical de manière à mieux pouvoir diriger l'appareil lors de ses déplacements. The apparatus of FIG. single consists of a base 1 which is for example U-shaped with two lateral horizontal beams (only the one which is in the foreground is flawed on the
Fig. single) and one bme lb. The base 1 is advantageously mounted on rollers 2 which allow the movement of the device. These rollers 2 can be pivoted along a vertical axis so as to be able to steer the device better when it is moving.

Sur l'âme lb de l'embase 1, est montée une colonne 3 sensiblement verticale. La colonne 3 porte un axe de pivotement horizontal xx' autour duquel peut pivoter un bras 4. Ce bras 4 a été représenté linéaire mais il pourrait avoir tout autre forme sans sortir du cadre tracé par la présente invention
A l'extrémité libre du bras 4, sont fixés des moyens de retenue
S qui sont constitues, ici, d'un axe 5a et d'un crochet Sb pour le montage d'un palonnier (non représenté > prévu pour supporter un patient. Au moyen de l'axe Sa, il est possible de faire effectuer au patient des rotations selon un axe yy'. En pivotant autour de l'axe xx', le patient peut être monté ou descendu selon les besoins. Le patient peut donc évoluer dans un espace E au-dessus de l'embase 1 et à l'avant de la colonne 3. On nommera par la suite l'espace E espace de soulèvement.A substantially vertical column 3 is mounted on the core 1b of the base 1. Column 3 carries a horizontal pivot axis xx 'around which an arm 4 can pivot. This arm 4 has been shown to be linear but it could have any other shape without departing from the framework traced by the present invention
At the free end of the arm 4, are fixed retaining means
S which here consist of an axis 5a and a hook Sb for mounting a lifter (not shown> intended to support a patient. By means of the axis Sa, it is possible to have the patient rotates along an axis yy '. By pivoting around the axis xx', the patient can be raised or lowered as required. The patient can therefore move in a space E above the base 1 and at 'before column 3. We will then name space E lifting space.

Le bras 4 est actionné en pivotement sous l'action d'un vérin 6 dont le corps 6a est monté, par l'intermédiaire d'une articulation 6b, sur la colonne 3, avantageusement, mais pas nécessairement en dessous de laxe xx, et dont la tige 6c mobile a son extrémité libre qui est fixée, au moyen d'une articulation appropriée 6d, en un point
A dudit bras 4 opposé, par rapport à l'axe l'UC de pivotement xx', à l'extrémité B qui supporte les moyens de retenue S.The arm 4 is pivotally actuated under the action of a jack 6, the body 6a of which is mounted, via a hinge 6b, on the column 3, advantageously, but not necessarily below the axis xx, and whose movable rod 6c has its free end which is fixed, by means of an appropriate articulation 6d, at a point
A of said opposite arm 4, relative to the axis of the pivoting CPU xx ', at the end B which supports the retaining means S.

On comprendra qu'ainsi le vérin 6 est monté entre la colonne 3 et ledit point A. Ce point est avantageusement à une autre extrémité libre du bras 4. It will be understood that thus the jack 6 is mounted between the column 3 and said point A. This point is advantageously at another free end of the arm 4.

A la Fig. unique, on a représenté le bras 4 en position basse en traits forts et en position haute en traits fins mixtes. In Fig. single, the arm 4 has been shown in the low position in strong lines and in the high position in thin dashed lines.

Le vérin 6 peut être de tout type: vérin hydraulique et, dans ce cas, un réservoir d'huile et une pompe, par exemple à commande manuelle sont prévus, ou vérin pneumatique et, dans ce cas, un réservoir d'air sous pression et une commande appropriée sont prévus, ou vérin électrique. Dans cette dernière solution, on pourra choisir un vérin du type constitué d'une tige pourvue d'un filetage et mue par un moteur électrique. Il est alimenté par une batterie 7 qui peut être montée sur la colonne 3. The cylinder 6 can be of any type: hydraulic cylinder and, in this case, an oil tank and a pump, for example with manual control are provided, or pneumatic cylinder and, in this case, a pressurized air tank and an appropriate control are provided, or electric jack. In the latter solution, it is possible to choose a cylinder of the type consisting of a rod provided with a thread and driven by an electric motor. It is powered by a battery 7 which can be mounted on column 3.

Dans le mode avantageux de réalisation représenté, pour une meilleure répartition des charges, la colonne 3 est inclinée vers l'embase 1 de manière à former un angle obtus a entre l'embase 1 et la colonne 3 dans l'espace E où peuvent évoluer lesdits moyens de retenue S.  In the advantageous embodiment shown, for a better distribution of the loads, the column 3 is inclined towards the base 1 so as to form an obtuse angle a between the base 1 and the column 3 in the space E where can evolve said retaining means S.
