DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bed system with a pillow moving device for a person who has a disability on a bed due to a physical injury or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a physically handicapped person moves by rolling over the surface of a bed mat or the like, the pillow 6 used by the handicapped person or a caregiver is used. It is moved by hands.

[0003]

The movement of the pillow by the hand of a handicapped person or the hand of a caregiver requires manual labor and is troublesome. Further, in order to move the pillow manually, the pillow must be moved while lifting the head of the bed user (patient), which may cause pain and discomfort to the bed user.

On the other hand, the inventor of the present invention moves the mat supporting the buttocks of the user up and down and back and forth while tilting the front mat so that the user on the bed can be provided on the bed. A bed system has been developed to defecate urinals.

[0005] In the case of the bed system developed by the present inventors, the posture of the patient changes as the mat moves. That is, the front-back (up-down) position of the patient on the front mat changes depending on the tilt angle of the mat, the relative positional relationship (separation distance) between the front mat and the buttocks mat, and the like.
Therefore, the patient's head on the front mat also moves in the front-back (up-down) direction. Therefore, it is necessary to move the pillow to the destination of the head, but the movement of the pillow is difficult as described above.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and has been made in view of the above.
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a bed system that can perform the above-mentioned steps without requiring many human hands.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a bed system in which a bed user can move a pillow in a comfortable posture. It is another object of the present invention to provide a bed system for moving a pillow to an optimal position for a bed user.

[0008]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a front mat 2 which can be erected in an inclined erect state, and the upper and lower sides (front and rear) of the front mat 2 are arranged along the surface of the front mat 2. )

[0014]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 to 5 are views for explaining a first embodiment of the bed system of the present invention. In the bed system according to the first embodiment, the mat 1 includes the front mat 2, the buttocks mat 13 and the rear mat 3, and the front mat 2 is provided so as to be able to stand upright in an inclined upright state. is there.

At the front of the front mat 2, there is provided a cutout portion 29 for making a long and narrow cutout of the front mat 2 in the front-rear direction. After inserting the pillow base 4 from which the magic fastener (registered trademark) mounting plate 8 has been removed into the cutout part 29 from below the cutout part 29, the magic fastener mounting plate 8 is attached to the end surface of the pillow base 4,
It is formed so that it can be attached with screws (not shown) or the like.

The buttocks mat 13 and the pillow bed 4 are connected by a connecting member 14 such as a wire rope. When the buttocks mat 13 is pulled down, the pillow bed 4 is formed to be pulled down by the connecting members 14. It is.

The bed system is formed so that the pillow bed 4 is pulled up by an elastic body 15 having one end fixed to the front part of the front mat 2 and formed of a helical spring or the like. Further, a pair of cloth covers 30 are provided facing the groove edge of the cutout portion 29 so as to face each other.

The footrest 3 provided on the rear mat 3
Numeral 8 is formed so as to be used while being turned upright. The pillow bed 4 is formed along the surface of the front mat 2 so as to be slidable in the vertical (front-back) direction of the front mat 2,
The magic fastener 7 of the pillow 6 is formed so as to be detachably attached to a magic fastener 7 provided on a magic fastener attaching plate 8 attached to the pillow base 4.

The pillow bed 4 is formed to move up and down (back and forth) in accordance with the up and down (back and forth) movement of the buttocks mat 13 provided below (rear) the front mat 2. That is, when the relative position between the front mat 2 and the buttocks mat 13 changes due to the tilting of the front mat 2 or the vertical movement (back and forth) of the buttocks mat 13, the coupling device 14 is changed by the changed amount.
, The pillow base 4 moves down (rear), and is pulled back by the elastic body 15 so that the pillow base 4 moves up (front).

FIGS. 6 to 10 are views for explaining a second embodiment of the bed system of the present invention. In the drawings for describing the second embodiment, the same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment, and the description is partially omitted.

In the second embodiment, the front mat 2
A cutout portion 29 that is cut out in the front and rear direction is provided.
The pillow bed 4 is inserted into the cutout 29 in the same manner as in the first embodiment, and the magic fastener mounting plate 8 is formed on the upper surface of the pillow bed 4 so as to be attached thereto.
The magic fastener mounting plate 8 is formed so that the pillow 6 can be mounted with the magic fastener 7.

A cutout 2 is provided on the lower surface of the pillow base lower portion 5.
9, a rack 23 is provided.
The motor 2 with the reduction gear provided on the side of the cutout 29
The first pinion 22 engages, and the pillow base 4 is formed to move forward and backward (vertically move) the cutout portion 29 by the forward and reverse rotation of the motor 21.

The back and forth movement (up and down movement) of the pillow bed 4 is performed when the user sits on the buttocks mat 13.
The control unit 50, which has received a signal from the buttocks mat position sensor 40 for detecting the vertical and horizontal movements of the
In response to the movement of the buttocks mat 13, the pillow 4 is moved by rotating in the forward and reverse directions so that the pillow 6 is located at a position corresponding to the head of the user.

The buttocks mat 13 and the front mat 2
A foldable sheet-like toilet seat 35 is provided therebetween, and a discharge port 36 and a washing water pipe 37 are formed in the buttocks mat 13.

As described above, according to the bed system of the present embodiment, the position of the bed 4 can be moved in accordance with the movement of the front mat 2 and the buttocks mat 13. That is, a bed system in which the position of the pillow 6 is also continuously changed in accordance with the continuous movement of the user's head in the front mat 2 was achieved. And pillow bed 4
Since the pillow 6 attached to the pillow 6 moves horizontally (parallel movement) with respect to the front mat 2, it is not necessary to lift the head of the user, and the user can change the posture in a comfortable state.

[0026]

According to the present invention, when the user sits on the buttocks mat 13 of the bed system and the buttocks mat 13 moves downward,
The pillow 6 also moves downward in accordance with the movement of the buttocks mat 13, and when the buttocks mat 13 is moved upward, the pillow 6 moves upward in accordance with the movement.

Therefore, the pillow 6 can be automatically moved to a position suitable for supporting the head of the user, and the labor required for moving the pillow 6 can be omitted. Also,
The pillow 6 can be moved while the user is in a comfortable posture.

Also, the buttocks mat 13 and the pillow bed 4
4, the one end of the elastic body 15 is fixed to the front mat 2 and the other end is connected to the bed 4 so that the effects of the present invention can be obtained with a simple configuration. It is.

Further, the invention in which a means for detecting the position of the buttocks mat 13 is provided and the pillow bed 4 is moved by the driving means 21 in response to a signal from the control means 50 has the advantage of the present invention with a simple structure. It can be played.
