JPH05337155A - Bed device for helping laying-down aged person - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate the rolling-over of a laying-down aged person in bed for reducing an load on a helper by halving a bed longitudinally in the intermediate part corresponding to the waist and body while constituting the left and right lateral halves capable of vertically moving the waist and body in the intermediate part of the bed. CONSTITUTION:While a bed is halved longitudinally in the intermediate part corresponding to the waist and body, movable parts 1, 1 separable laterally left and right are constituted. The respective movable parts 1 can independently vertically moved by rotating a handle 3 extended to the outside of the bed or by the action of a motor gas spring. Thus, the intermediate part of the waist and body of a laying-down aged person can be vertically moved by selectively vertically moving the movable parts 1 to facilitate the rolling-over of the aged person.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a function training device for a caregiver to comfortably turn over a bedridden old man, to be able to sit with his own power to release the bedridden person, and to strengthen his / her waist before standing. It is about.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A bed apparatus for a sick person is generally used in which a sick person or a bedridden elderly person wakes up and gives a meal and raises a lower leg's leg knees. However, with this method, it is a great burden for the caregiver to have the caregiver turn over the bedridden old man many times a day. Also, just raising the upper body of the bed weakens the waist of the bedridden old man.

There is also a bed with a bed-turning device for which a patent has been applied according to Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-254745, but this system causes an unnatural posture of the bedridden old man to turn over, which imposes a burden on the bedridden old man.

There is also a bed in which a device for raising the sick person or the bedridden elderly person is provided by raising the bed itself.
Very dangerous for sick or weak bedridden people.

[0005]

The problem to be solved is to be able to turn over in a natural manner when turning over and not to burden the caregiver. On the other hand, by strengthening the waist of the bedridden old man, the point is to release it from the bedridden state before the rehabilitation to sit or stand up by himself.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention is to allow a bedridden old man to turn over in a natural posture without burdening a caregiver, and the bedridden old man is released from a bedridden probation as early as possible. It is to be able to rehabilitate.
This device has these two functions as its main characteristics.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is an overall view of the apparatus of the present invention before operation, in which 1 is a bed portion which moves up and down, 3 is a handle
4 is an assistance bar.

First, referring to FIG. 2, an explanation will be given of turning the bedridden old man from a supine posture to a sideways posture. In the case of manual operation, by turning the handle of 3 and by the action of the gear's camming, and in the case of electric operation, by the action of the gas spring, the waist part of the handle side 1 and the middle part of the body are lifted up a little, which causes The waist and the middle half of the body will be lifted. Since the middle part of the waist and body is the heaviest part of the body, by lifting that part a little sideways, after that, by pulling lightly in the direction to make the shoulder, arm or hand of the bedridden old man sideways, After getting into the sideways posture without resistance, you can get a natural sideways posture by gently pulling both knees in the sideways direction. It is a device that allows bedridden old people and caregivers to change their posture to a sideways lying position in a comfortable and natural state.

Next, referring to FIG. 2, the explanation will be made about turning over from a sideways posture to a supine posture. First, hold the middle part of the waist and body on the side 1 of the bedridden old man sideways by turning the handle 3 for manual operation, and by holding the gears together, or for electric operation, slightly holding it by the action of the gas spring. increase. As explained earlier, the waist and middle part of the body are the heaviest in the body, so one side of the bed is low, so the upper shoulder should be lightly tilted to the lower side of the bed. After making the supine posture, you can make a natural supine posture by pulling both legs lightly. It is a device that allows bedridden elderly people and caregivers to easily and naturally change their positions.

Next, referring to FIG. 3, it is a device for strengthening the waist of a bedridden old man to release it from the bedridden.
I will explain this. The waist of 1 and the middle part of the body are higher than when turning over by the action of the gear by turning the handle of 3 in the case of manual operation and by the action of the gas spring in the case of electric, and the waist when sitting Lift higher. Then, install two intercostal bars 4 in the width of the shoulder. When the first waist is weak, the caregiver supports the shoulders of the bedridden old man, the back and waist of the bedridden old man is one half of the raised bed, and both hands are 4
Have a helper bar. By continuing this action for 5 to 10 minutes every day, the weakened waist of the bedridden old man becomes stronger and becomes able to sit by himself, and it is the pre-stage of rehabilitation to stand up.

[0011]

As described above, the bed apparatus for assisting bedridden elderly people according to the present invention makes it possible for the bedridden elderly person to comfortably turn over in a natural posture and to change the posture several times throughout the day and at night. It is a device that can reduce the burden.
