BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a patient transfer assisting means for facilitating transfer of a patient on a bed, for example, to a transfer bed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in order to transfer a patient or an elderly person on a bed to a transfer bed, the transfer bed is placed on the bed by adjusting the height of the transfer bed to the position of the bed floor. , The old man's body was pulled into the transport bed. However, the caregiver must raise the patient's and the elderly's body in an unnatural posture temporarily, and in some cases, it may interfere with the patient's or the elderly's injury or illness. It is desirable to move it without applying excessive force locally. So, in the transfer bed,
A bridging member for penetrating the bed floor to bridge the patient, a winding band laid on the back of the patient through the bridging member, and a winding means for winding the winding band. Provided, the transfer bed is horizontally attached to the bed so that the bridging member of the patient penetrates into the bed floor, and the winding band is laid under the patient, and the winding means is operated to interpose the bridging member. , Means for transferring a patient to a transfer bed have been proposed.

[0003]

However, the above-mentioned mechanism has not yet been found as a single piece of equipment. That is, the transfer bed as described above must be newly prepared. Further, the mechanism such as the winding means is relatively complicated, and a simpler mechanism is required. The present invention has been made to solve such problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a patient transfer assisting device having a structure as simple as possible and having a structure detachable from an existing transfer bed. .

[0004]

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention is a patient transfer assisting means for moving a patient between a bed and a transfer bed, which is for transferring the patient. The transfer sheet includes a long transfer sheet and a winding means for winding and storing the transfer sheet, and the transfer sheet has a bag-shaped outer sheet and a base sheet slidably arranged in the outer sheet. Then, the front end of the base sheet is joined to the front end of the outer sheet, and the front end is wound and housed in the outer sheet. Is provided so as to project from between the outer sheets, and the other end of the base sheet is fixed to the take-up roller of the take-up means. An engaging portion for engaging the base sheet and the outer sheet with each other is provided at the open end of the winding sheet of the tar sheet, and the winding means is detachably attached to one long side of the transfer bed, With the transfer bed laid horizontally on the side of the bed, the pull-out hook at the tip of the pull-out means pulls out the transfer sheet from the winding means and lays it under the patient, and operates the winding means. The transfer sheet is wound around each patient to transfer the patient. In the above-mentioned configuration, the outer sheet of the transfer seat is formed by a sheet having a relatively high friction coefficient on the upper surface side on which the patient is placed, and the seat on the side in contact with the transfer bed or the bed floor has a comparative friction coefficient. It can be formed by a relatively low sheet.

[0005]

[Function] The transfer bed is placed horizontally on the side of the bed,
From the transfer bed toward the patient on the bed, pull the pull-out hook at the tip of the pull-out means to pull out the transfer sheet from the winding means and lay it under the patient. The patient can be transferred to the transfer bed by winding the transfer sheet together with the transfer sheet. Since a sheet having a high friction coefficient is used on the upper surface side of the outer sheet in the transfer sheet, the patient does not slip off when the transfer sheet is wound. On the other hand, the transfer bed and the seat on the side in contact with the bed floor have a low coefficient of friction, and even when the patient is placed on and wound up by the winding means, the lower surface of the outer seat slides on the bed floor and the transfer bed to move. The patient can be easily transferred.

[0006]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the patient transfer assisting means according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In FIG. 1, a transfer bed 1 (hereinafter referred to as a stretcher 1) is attached to a patient transfer assisting means 2 according to the present invention.
It shows where the is attached. This patient transfer assistance means 2 is
It is provided with a long transfer sheet 3 on which a patient is placed and a winding means 4 for winding and accommodating the transfer sheet 3.

The transfer sheet 3 has a bag-shaped outer sheet 5 and a base sheet 6 slidably arranged in the outer sheet 5, and has a front end portion of the base sheet 6 and a front end portion of the outer sheet 5. The end portions are joined together and can be rolled up and housed in the outer sheet 5. In the outer sheet 5, the upper sheet on the side on which the patient is placed is formed of a sheet having a relatively high friction coefficient, and the lower sheet contacting the stretcher 1 and the bed floor is formed of a sheet having a relatively low friction coefficient. ing. At the leading end of the base sheet 6, a pull-out means 7 is provided.
The pull-out means 7 is attached to the tip of the pull-out means 7 so as to project from the space between the outer sheets 5. The other tip of the base sheet 6 is fixed to the take-up roller 9 of the take-up means 4, while the other tip of the base sheet 6 and the open end of the outer sheet 5 on the take-up roller 9 side. A hook-and-loop fastener 10 is attached to the base sheet 6 and the outer sheet 5 so as to detachably attach the base sheet 6 and the outer sheet 5 to each other (see FIG. 2).

The winding roller 9 of the winding means 4
Has a length equal to the longitudinal direction of the stretcher 1,
The support sheet 11 is rotatably supported by the support column 11, and the transfer handle 3 is wound by the winding handle 12. The shaft of the winding handle 12 and the rotation shaft (not shown) of the winding roller 9 can be connected by a known joint or gear mechanism. The column 11 of the winding means 4 is detachably attached to an attachment hole (for example, Illigator) of the stretcher 1 on one long side of the stretcher 13. It should be noted that the stretcher 1 stretcher 13 has a bridging flap 1 that also serves as a side rail.
4 (see FIG. 3).

With the above-described structure, the pulling means 7 is provided in a state where the stretcher 1 is laterally attached to the side of the bed 15.
By pulling out the transfer sheet 3 from the winding means 4 and laying it under the patient by the pull-out hand hook portion 8 at the tip, the winding means 4 is operated to wind the transfer sheet 3 together with the patient. Is configured to be transferred.

Next, the operation and action of the patient transfer assistance means 2 will be described. The stretcher 1 is laid sideways on the side of the bed 15 with the bridging flap 14 raised.
From the stretcher 1 toward the patient on the bed 15, the pull-out hook 8 at the tip of the pull-out means 7 is pulled to pull out the transfer sheet 3 from the winding means 4 and bring it to the side of the patient. Here, the open side end of the outer sheet 5 is pulled out from the winding roller 9, and the surface fastener 10 is exposed (see FIG. 4). When the pulling-out hook portion 8 is further pulled under the patient to the opposite side, the base sheet 6 is pulled out from the winding roller 9 and slides in the outer sheet 5, so that the inside of the outer sheet 5 is covered. The joint surface between the base sheet 6 that has been rolled up and accommodated and the outer sheet 5 is pulled out and passes under the patient to reach the opposite side. At this time, since the lower surface side sheet of the outer sheet 5 is formed of a sheet having a small friction coefficient, it can be pulled out smoothly. In this way, the transfer sheet 3, that is, the base sheet 6 and the outer sheet 5 can be laid under the patient (see FIG. 5). On the upper surface side of the outer seat 5 in the transfer seat 3, since a seat having a large friction coefficient is adopted, the patient does not slip off. On the other hand, the seat on the lower surface side that is in contact with the stretcher 1 and the floor of the bed 15 has a small coefficient of friction and is slippery, so that the base seat 6 and the outer seat 5 can be easily laid under the patient.

When the base sheet 6 and the outer sheet 5 are fully pulled out, the take-up roller 9
The surface fastener 10 of the base sheet 6 is exposed in the vicinity. Therefore, the surface fastener 10 at the open end of the outer sheet 5 and the surface fastener 10 of the base sheet 6 are adhered to each other to fix the base sheet 6 and the outer sheet 5. In this state, the winding handle 1 of the winding means 4
By operating 2 to wind the base sheet 6 and the outer sheet 5 around the take-up roller 9, the patient can be transferred from the bed 15 to the stretcher 1 while the patient is on the outer sheet 5 (Fig. 6).

On the other hand, when the patient is returned to the bed 15, conversely, the transfer sheet 3 is pulled out from the winding means 4 by the pull-out hook portion 8 at the tip of the pull-out means 7, and the transfer sheet 3 is pulled out.
The patient may be transferred to the bed 15 on the bed.
