Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an intercom with an illuminator that can be easily positioned in any direction and is suitable for installation in a bed in a hospital room.

Conventionally, intercoms with illuminators installed near beds in hospitals and the like have been fixed to walls of hospitals, etc., and have had the disadvantage of not being flexible and being difficult to use for patients on the bed.

The present invention has been proposed in view of the above points, and the object thereof is to provide a user such as a patient with an intercom with an illuminator that can easily change the direction of illumination with a single touch.

The intercom with illuminator for installation in a bed in a hospital room according to the present invention will be explained below with reference to the drawings.

1 to 7 show embodiments of the present invention. In these figures, reference numeral 1 is a housing main body, in which a bowl-shaped reflection chamber 2 is formed.
A lighting device 4, such as an incandescent lamp, is provided within the socket 3. In addition, a semi-transparent cover member 5 is placed over the lower part of the reflection chamber 2.
The upper and lower edges of the cover member 5 are slidably engaged with channel portions 6, 6 defined by the upper and lower edges of the front surface of the housing main body 1, and the cover member 5 is slidably engaged with the channel portions 6, 6 defined by the upper and lower edges of the front surface of the housing body 1. By moving, it is also possible to provide naked light from the lighting fixture 4.

Further, the other part of the housing body 1 is equipped with an intercom device 7 constructed as is well known, and one side of the housing body is provided with a call button 8, a confirmation lamp 9, and a blinking switch 10 for an illuminator. A grip arm 11 is fixedly attached.

Further, a flexible arm 13 is attached to the housing body 1 via a bracket 12, and a base end 14 of the flexible arm 13 is fixed to the edge of the bed or the like.

The bracket 12 has a substantially L-shape, and the upper surface 1a of the housing body 1 is rotatably attached to one end of the bracket 12. That is, the upper surface 1a
A through hole 1b is formed in the housing body 1, and a shaft 15 projects from the inside of the housing body 1 to the outside through the through hole 1b, and one end of the bracket 12 is pivotally attached to this shaft 15. The housing body 1 is configured to rotate. In this case, axis 1
5 may be simply provided to protrude from the upper surface 1a without being protruded from the inside of the housing body 1 to the outside.

Note that it is also possible to fix the tip of a shaft 15 that passes through the upper surface 1a to one end of the bracket 12, and loosely fit the shaft 15 into the through hole 1b, thereby making the housing body 1 rotatable. be. In this case, it is of course necessary to provide a support member 16 on the shaft 15 to prevent the housing body 1 from being removed.

On the other hand, the other end of the bracket 12 is pivotally connected via a shaft 17. This shaft 17 is supported by connecting members 19, 19 which are arranged opposite to each other with a gap in between. A shaft 18 is supported by the connecting members 19, 19, and a flexible arm 13 is attached to this shaft 18. In this case, the flexible arm 13 is
It is preferable that the flexible arm 13 is pivotally attached to a shaft 18 and the connecting members 19, 19 are rotatably attached to the shaft 18 using the shaft 18 as a fulcrum.

With this configuration, the housing main body 1 can be rotated in the vertical direction with respect to the connecting member 19 as shown by arrows X and X' in FIG. 7a. Further, the housing main body 1 can also be rotated in the horizontal direction with reference to the bracket 12 as shown by arrows Y and Y'.

However, in use, the grip arm 11
If the housing main body 1 can be arbitrarily positioned close to a patient, etc. by grasping the housing main body 1, and the cover member 5 is moved to cover the reflection chamber 2 as shown in FIG. can provide low, soft light. In this case, the patient can easily rotate the housing body 1 by grasping the grip arm 11 and moving it in any direction as necessary, such as from left to right or up and down, to illuminate a desired location. Furthermore, since the patient can keep the illuminated intercom close to him/her in this way, the patient can easily and conveniently communicate with the nurse at the nursing station via the intercom.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 7b, the channel portion 6,
By sliding the cover member 5 away from the reflection chamber 2 along the line 6, it is possible to provide naked light from the lighting device 4 with relatively high illuminance.

As described above, according to the present invention, the main body of the housing including the illuminator and the intercom device is configured to be movable in any direction, which improves operability for patients lying in bed who have difficulty moving their bodies. It has the advantage of being very convenient and has the advantage of being particularly suitable for seriously ill patients.
