Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a movable bed which is used movably in hospitals and the like, and it is intended to reduce the width of the bed when moving to facilitate the movement.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A moving bed is often moved in a limited narrow space such as a corridor of a hospital or a room. When a patient sleeps on the bed, The width should be wide and the bed width should be narrow when moving.

[0003]

According to the present invention, a side bed 2 is provided on a side portion of a center bed 1 so as to be capable of standing and rotating upward, and an operation tool 3 for raising and lowering the side bed 2 is provided on a bedside portion. The structure of the moving bed is as follows. Further, a handle 5 for steering the casters 4 on the foot side is provided on the bedside of the center bed 1.

[0004]

When the side bed 2 is raised and lowered, the operation tool 3 at the bedside is operated. As a result, the side bed 2 is rotated to be flush with the side portion of the center bed 1 to widen the bed width, or the side bed 2 is rotated upright with respect to the center bed 1 to narrow the overhang width of the side bed 1. Easy and easy to do.

When the bed is moved, the casters 4 on the foot side are operated by operating the handle 5 at the bedside.
Since it is a steering wheel, it is easy to steer and can easily make a small turn.

[0006]

[Embodiment] A bed base 6 is a plane rectangle, has a pair of left and right supporting legs 7 and 8 at the front and rear, casters 4 and 9 at the lower end, and a caster 4 on the foot side which is the front side is operated by an operating tool 3. Steering can be interlocked. Rear caster 9
Is steerable and rotatable with respect to the supporting leg 8.

The center bed 1 is mounted and mounted on the upper side of the base 6, and the side beds 2 are pivotally supported by hinges 10 on both left and right sides of the center bed 1 so as to be capable of undulating and pivoting outward. In this case, the upper surface of the side bed 2 is substantially flush with the upper surface of the center bed 1 in a substantially horizontal state, and the upward rotation is an angular region where the sensor bed 1 can rise up at a substantially right angle. Thus, it can be adjusted and locked at an appropriate position.

In the interlocking construction of the operation tool 3 for adjusting the ups and downs of the side bed 2, a bracket 11 is provided at the rear end of the base 6 corresponding to the center of the center bed 1 in the width direction. Has a handle, which is an operating tool 3, pivotally supported by a shaft 12 so as to be rotatable left and right.
It is possible to engage with the fan-shaped rack 13 above the bracket 11.

By connecting both ends of the arm 15 integrated with the operation tool 3 and the shaft 12 and the arm 16 integrated with the side bed 2 by rods 17, the operation tool 3 is rotated left and right. The left and right side beds 2 can be turned up and down. Reference numeral 18 is a balance spring, which is provided between the arm 15 and the base 6 in a pulling direction so as to elastically spring to the side where the side bed 2 is erected.

A handle 5 having substantially the same width as that of the center bed 1 is provided along the rear side of the operation tool 3 also as a bed guard. This handle 5 is attached to a handle shaft 19 whose central portion on the lower side is supported below the base 6 facing the central portion of the center bed 1 along the front-rear direction, and when the handle 5 is rotated left and right. By rotating the handle shaft 19, the left and right casters 4 can be steered via the arm 20 at the front end of the handle shaft 19, the left and right rods 21 at the lower end of the arm, the steering arm 22, and the like. Reference numeral 23 denotes a neutral return spring, which is pulled between the arm 20 and the left and right support legs 7 and tensions the arm 20 to return it to the steering neutral position. The handle 5 may be provided separately from the bed guard.

The hinge 10, which is the center of rotation of the side bed 2, is provided at a height position corresponding to the upper surface of the bed on brackets 24 fixed to the left and right sides at the front and rear ends of the base 6, and the side bed 2 is raised. The end face is set so that the outer part pivots upward around the hinge 10 part and the lower end inner end face part 25 opens from the outer end face 26 of the center bed 1, regardless of the undulation angle of the side bed 2. 1 and the side beds 2 are configured so that the upper surfaces thereof do not open. Further, since the center bed 1 and the side bed 2 have a mat portion in the upper portion, the upper surface of the mat portion serves as a reference for the above-mentioned undulating and rotating structure.

When the bed is moved, the handle 5 is pushed or pulled while moving, and the caster 4 is steered by rotating the handle 5 around the handle shaft 19.
