Abstract

PURPOSE: To cool the skin moderately simultaneously with long time heat radiation to warm the human body optimum by providing a frame and a reposing surface, and installing a wall which is extended to the upper part, provided with an opening and connected to a roof part on both ends of the frame. CONSTITUTION: A roof part 4 held on the side of a frame 1 covers the upper side of a reposing surface 3 like a pointed arc, and is connected to a wall 5, and the wall 5 is installed on the end surface of the frame 1 and provided with an opening 13. The roof part 4 has an opening 6 in the central area thereof to be used as an entrance for a user, and is extended substantially from the reposing surface 3 to the ridge. When the inside of the bed is heated, a satisfactory convection of air in a space up to the outside is produced by the opening 13 of the wall 5 and the opening 6 of the roof part 4, so that much heat can be accumulated in the skin of the user to reach a high temperature. A conduit 8 is provided in the roof part 4, the wall 5 and the opening 6, and if it is connected to a fluid source for delivering a fluid, the temperature of which is controlled by a control means 12, the temperature can be controlled to 38 to 40 or 70 to 75. Thus, the bed is suitable especially for curing a patient.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a bed having a frame and a lying surface, the lying surface being partially covered by a temperature-adjustable cover.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In mid- and high-latitude climates, the widespread use today of convection heaters and the usually very cold exterior walls of houses create a radiative balance between the human body and its environment. A very unfavorable situation has arisen.

Medical experiments have revealed that many civilized diseases also arise from the burden of indoor climate. Considering this, a very important load element is the unfavorable radiation balance state mentioned above, and even humans living in a cold climate zone that is not extremely severe are exposed to unfavorable radiation balance for about 6 months. It was great to be there. During JtJ1, first of all, the surface of the skin is warmed by convective heat, but the subcutaneous skin layer, muscles, and bone tissues are not warmed, so the inside of the body becomes insufficiently heated.

However, humans are warm-blooded animals and are naturally around 36.6°
At this body temperature, the combustion process of substance metabolism takes place once every minute. When individual parts of the body have hyperthermia or hypothermia, the process of metabolism loses its balance, the products of metabolism are no longer sufficiently excreted, and the toxins produced by metabolism enter the body. The rest causes various diseases.

However, the load caused by the indoor climate prevents the smooth muscles of blood vessels from relaxing properly. Such loads, along with the excessive stimulation of vascular smooth muscle due to daily stress, malnutrition, and the already mentioned deterioration of metabolism resulting from the load caused by indoor climate, can cause extremely different vascular diseases. It is an important cause of abnormal blood pressure.

Treatments with radiant heat have already been proposed to better relax the smooth muscles of blood vessels. For this purpose, a ring is used which is made up of two parts and has an electrically conductive layer inside. When a patient sits on this ring, the patient receives corresponding heat radiation. At this time, the air in the room is relatively cold and is maintained within a range of about 23°C.

Furthermore, it has already been proposed to place one half of the ring described above on the bed and to subject the patient to a thermal treatment in which the temperature of the emitting surface is approximately 38-45°C.

The problem with known solutions is that the heat taken up by the outer skin layer can only be dissipated insufficiently due to the lack of adequate convection. Because of this, the patient begins to sweat. This results in an increased burden on blood circulation. For this reason, thermal treatments by known means may last for more than one hour even in the prevention and treatment of diseases caused by viruses, bacteria, or other pathogens that are highly susceptible to heat, such as the common cold. It cannot be done.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problem by providing a bed having a frame and a lying surface, the lying surface being partially covered by a temperature-adjustable cover. In addition to preventing heat radiation, the goal is to improve the ability to radiate heat over long periods of time and at the same time cool the skin appropriately to optimally warm the human body.

[Means for solving the problem, action, and effect of the invention]
The solution is provided in that a wall with at least one opening and connected to a roof part is provided at both ends of the frame, the roof part being configured with an opening which is also used as an artificial part.

These measures provide sufficient cooling of the skin by convection and, with appropriate measures, the indoor air remains relatively cool, for example in the range of 26°C.

Furthermore, in some cases, the walls at both ends of the bed may be separated from the roof. It is also possible to adjust the temperature of the wall by

These measures make it possible to minimize heat radiation to important parts of the human body, such as the head.

For optimal heat dissipation, the inner side of the walls and roof facing the lying surface should be lined with a material, e.g. wood or ceramic, that radiates sufficient heat, and the outer side should be lined with a heat-insulating material. It is preferable that a layer is provided.

In this case, it prevents strong radiation of heat into the surrounding space and saves energy.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the opening 11 in the roof section is
Approximately equal to the thickness of the user's body from the lying surface 12:,
It is conceivable that the heat rays can be reflected or the temperature can be adjusted up to that point, and that the LiJ flexible or partially closed wall may be used in some cases.

These measures prevent the heat radiation from becoming too strong in the open area of the housing. There is a risk of too strong radiation, especially if the bed of the invention is placed near a cold wall.

Furthermore, it is also conceivable that conduits, which are flowed with a temperature-adjustable fluid and are preferably arranged in a register-like manner with an opening of 1°, are incorporated in the roof, and possibly also in the walls and/or closing walls.

In this way, the use of electric heaters, especially alternating current electric heaters, for temperature regulation is avoided, and the generation of electric and magnetic fields, especially alternating current electric and magnetic fields, in the area of the bed is avoided. be able to. In this way, avoiding T (5 fields and magnetic fields) not only reduces anxiety for patients but also avoids negative effects on many electrical measuring instruments.
It is.

Considering the optimal distribution of heat radiation, it is preferable that the cross section of the roof be curved in the shape of a pointed arch.
,stomach.

The roof portion formed as described in item 1 creates a field of radiation that acts almost uniformly on the human body.

Further, a control means installed in order to control the flow of the fluid whose temperature is regulated and the temperature of the fluid is formed so as to be able to control the closing means provided in the liquid flow 1-1. It is also conceivable to arrange each pair 17 of the covering on the individual parts to be temperature-regulated, for example on the roof, on the walls and on the closing walls.

The arrangement described above allows the surface temperature in the various areas of the bed cover to be adjusted appropriately to the user's requirements. In this case, the iMA degree inside the cover can be adjusted to a plurality of, for example two different temperature ranges. For example, one temperature range is 38 to 4
A temperature of 0 degrees Celsius is a negative (11) of the blood circulation exerted on the user, which is almost the same as normal (7), but especially in the temperature range when irradiating to better relax the smooth muscles of the blood vessels. be.

The other temperature range, 70 to 75 degrees Celsius, is the temperature range set for treatment.6 In this range, a kind of artificial heat is given to the patient, but this fever is caused by viruses such as influenza viruses, etc. J2 can also effectively act against viruses that are sensitive to heat, such as.

In this way, when the temperature from the heat release vent 21 is 70 to 75 degrees Celsius, an air flow due to strong convection is caused in the rad, and the temperature of the indoor air 1 is kept at a relatively low value. , does not place a significant burden on the heart, blood circulation, or breathing of the person being treated.

[Example] Hereinafter, referring to the drawings (1: Example of the bed of the present invention will be described.

The surface of the mat 1 nozzle 2, which is normally placed on the second side of the frame 1, is used as the lying surface 3 and 17.

The roof portion 4 held on the side surface of the frame 1 has a horizontal position 111

The roof part 4 has an opening 6 #L in its central region, which opening 6 is used as an entrance for the user and is located on the lying surface 3.
It extends from to the building. This opening 6 does not have to be this open, but in order for the user to easily enter it,
It is convenient that it is open to the lying surface 6.

When using a bed, heating the inside of the bed will cause the wall 5
Since the opening 13 of the roof part 4 and the opening 6 of the roof part 4 are provided,
Sufficient air convection occurs between the user and the outside, and the skin of the user lying on the lying surface 3 is cooled by the convection, so much heat accumulates on the user's skin, resulting in a high temperature. Never.

As shown in FIG. 1, the opening 6 is partially closed off by a closing wall 7. As shown in FIG. In this case, the closing wall 7 is guided in the illustrated embodiment by an arcuate rail (not shown), so that the upper edge of the closing wall 7 preferably lies in the upper half of the lying surface 3.

Controllable closure means are provided in connection with the individual sections 4.5 and 6, allowing the temperature of each section to be controlled separately. Furthermore, the control means 12 can adjust the temperature of the fluid to two different temperature ranges, for example 38-40'' or 70-75°.

The conduit 8 has a diameter of, for example, 1 to 2 fflffl and is preferably made of plastic.

The embodiment of FIG. 4 differs from the embodiment of FIGS. It is different from In the case of FIG. 4, a guide groove 16 for a sliding door 7 for opening and closing the opening 6 is provided in the roof 4 and the wall 15.

Furthermore, in the corner region between the frame 1 and the roof 4 a feed channel 12 is provided. A wall 17 of the supply channel 12 facing the space defined by the lying surface 3 and the inside of the roof portion 4
A conduit 8 is also accommodated therein. The conduit 8, like the conduit 8 housed in the roof 4 in a register-like manner, has one end connected to the inlet side collecting pipe and the other end connected to the outlet side collecting pipe.

The structure of the wall 17 is similar to that shown in FIG.

Inside the supply tube 12, a conduit 13 having an insulator for supplying outside air and a supply tube 14 for supplying oxygen are housed.

A branch pipe that penetrates the wall 17 separates from the two conduits 13 and 14, and the branch pipe communicates with the interior of the space defined by the yellow surface 3 and the inner wall of the roof part 4. .

Filtered or purified air is supplied into the area of the bed through the conduit 13, which is controlled by control means, such as valves, regulating the flow within the conduit 13. The air can optionally be replaced with ether and/or clear steam, and the outside air supplied through conduit 13 can be
It can contain a large amount of anions.

Such treatment makes the bed of the invention particularly suitable for treating sick patients.

As is clear from FIG. 4, a conduit 8 is housed in the sliding door 7', and the cross section of the sliding door 7' is approximately equal to the cross section shown in FIG.
