[0005] Here, according to the prior art 3, the curved bottom member is configured such that a plurality of inverted trapezoidal strip-shaped bottom members are connected to each other at their upper surfaces so as to be bendable. That is, the plurality of strip-shaped bottom members are integrally connected to each other on the upper surface side, and have an appropriate gap on the lower surface side. Therefore, when the strip-shaped bottom member is curved upwardly convex, the connection portion on the upper surface side of the strip-shaped bottom member is bent, and the range of the curvature where the gap is collapsed and curved on the lower surface side is appropriately limited. I have. That is, the curved bottom member used in each conventional technique is a flexible integral member made of a hollow thermoplastic resin.

However, in each of the above-described curved bottom members according to the prior art, since a plurality of strip-shaped bottoms are integrally connected on the upper surface side, the cross-sectional shape is large, and an appropriate gap is formed on the lower surface side. Must be formed between the strip-shaped bottoms. Therefore, since the size of the curved bottom member is large and the shape is complicated, the mold for manufacturing the curved bottom member is also greatly complicated, and the manufacturing cost of the mold is considerably increased.
The price of a curved bottom member is also high. Further, in order to mold such a curved bottom member, it is difficult to manufacture the curved bottom member by extrusion molding because the width of the curved bottom member in the longitudinal direction is large, and it has to be manufactured by injection molding. As a result, the manufacturing cost of the curved bottom member is still high, and the rise in the price of the curved bottom member has hindered the inexpensive provision of a care bed whose bending position can be adjusted.

That is, in the nursing care bed of the present invention in which the bending position can be adjusted, the portion corresponding to the above-described curved bottom member of each prior art is constituted by a plurality of strip-shaped bottom members which are separate from each other. Therefore, each strip-shaped bottom member is
Since it is molded separately, the molding die is much smaller when molding the strip-shaped bottom member of the present invention than when molding a large curved bottom member that is integrally molded. As a result, the production cost of the mold is much lower than that of the conventional technology, and it is possible to manufacture the required number of strip-shaped bottom members in one bed at a lower cost. It is possible to provide a comfortable nursing bed.

In this case, it is desirable that the plurality of strip-shaped bottom members have the same shape. If the strip-shaped bottom members have the same shape, they become a single standard product, so there is no need to prepare a plurality of molding dies, and the strip-shaped bottom members can be manufactured more inexpensively. Become like Further, in the nursing care bed of the present invention in which the bending position can be adjusted, the bottom member does not need to be flexible, and the bending of the bending portion such as the knee portion does not cause any significant deformation of the bottom member. That is, in the present invention, since there is almost no deformation of the bottom member, the bottom member is prevented from being cracked even when used for a long time, and the life of the bottom member is long and the maintenance cost is low for a long time. It is suppressed.

Further, it is more preferable that the strip-shaped bottom member has a lightening hole formed so as to communicate left and right. This is because the strip-shaped bottom member having such a configuration reduces the material cost and the weight by the thickness of the lightening hole, and further improves the heat retention. Although the above description has been made with a focus on the characteristics of the strip-shaped bottom member, the adoption of the strip-shaped bottom member allows the hinge member to be manufactured at a lower cost, unlike the conventional technology. . That is, in the bed of the present invention, of the hinge member, a connecting portion that holds each of the strip-shaped bottom members and is coupled to the first frame or the second frame is configured by a linear member. And still better.

The reason is that a rectangular bottom member is employed instead of the curved bottom member, and therefore, it is inconvenient if the connecting portion is formed of a member having a curved shape as in the prior arts 1 and 2. is there. That is, when the hinge member is bent, the bottom may be formed with an appropriate curve, but when the hinge member is extended,
It is inconvenient if the strip-shaped bottom member drops along the connecting portion of the hinge member. Therefore, if both connecting portions of the hinge member are formed of a linear member, such a functional disadvantage is eliminated. In addition, there is an effect that the manufacturing cost of the hinge member can be reduced, and the cost can be further reduced.
