[0006]

FIG. 1 schematically shows one use form of a bedside pocket 1 constructed according to one embodiment of the present invention. In the case shown in FIG.
This is a case where the bed 2 is used in a hospital or the like, and the bed 2 has a mat 2a and a pair of side guards 2b on both sides of the mat 2a. The side guard 2b is usually provided integrally with or separately from the frame of the bed 2, and is positioned close to the mat 2a of the bed 2 to facilitate access to a patient by a doctor or nurse. It is often provided freely. FIG. 1 shows a state in which the bedside pocket 1 is hung on one side guard 2b of the bed 2 from above and fixed to the side guard 2b.

FIG. 2 shows the state shown in FIG. 1 in more detail, wherein the bedside pocket 1 is provided with a side guard 2b.
The upper part is bent substantially in half, and the bent part outside the bed is bent slightly longer than the bent part inside the bed.

FIGS. 3 and 4 are schematic front and rear views showing a bedside pocket 1 constructed according to one embodiment of the present invention. Bedside pocket 1 shown
Has a substantially rectangular base 10. The base 10 can be made of any material as long as it can be easily bent. For example, cloth, plastic, and other materials can be used. In the illustrated example, a plurality of pockets 11, 12a, 12b, 12c are provided along the upper side of the base 10, and a plurality of pockets 13 are provided along the lower side.
a and 13b are provided. Each of these pockets has a substantially rectangular or square shape, three sides of which are fixed to the base 10 by sewing or bonding, and the other one side 11 ′, 12a′12b ′. , 12
c ', 13a', and 13b 'are not fixed to the base 10 and constitute open ends. Accordingly, the plurality of pockets are independent of each other, and it is possible to store a desired accessory in the pocket or to remove an accessory from the pocket through the corresponding open end.

As shown in FIG. 3, in the illustrated bedside pocket 1, in particular, small items required by a patient, such as a thermometer, a wristwatch, glasses, a book, a towel, a tissue paper, a ballpoint pen, a notepad, etc. There are provided a plurality of pockets 11, 12, and 13 sized so as to be convenient for accommodating therein. That is, in this embodiment, for example, the pocket 11 is suitable for storing a book or a memo pad, the pocket 12a is suitable for storing a thermometer, and the pocket 12b is suitable for storing glasses. The pocket 12c is suitable for storing handkerchiefs, tissue paper, remote control switches, and the like. Furthermore, pockets 13a of relatively large dimensions,
13b is suitable for storing newspapers, magazines, towels and the like. However, in the present invention, it goes without saying that any number and size of pockets can be provided according to the application scene. It is also possible to provide a chuck at the open end of one or more pockets so that the pockets can be closed.
Rubber may be secured to the open end of one or more pockets to provide a telescopic opening.

In the illustrated example, a loop stopper 14 is provided in addition to the pocket. This loop stopper 14
A pair of loops 14a and 14b is formed by attaching an elongate member such as a cloth or a plastic to an appropriate position on the base 10 by a method such as sewing or bonding. The loop locking body 14 is suitable for locking, for example, a wristwatch, a ballpoint pen, and the like. In the illustrated example, after a plurality of pockets 11, 12, and 13 are fixed to the base 10, an edge 15 is provided along the side of the base 10, and the side of the bedside pocket 1 is reinforced. ing.
Further, in the illustrated example, a similar rim is provided at the open end of each pocket, and the open end is reinforced for taking in and out of small articles.

FIG. 5 is a partially enlarged perspective view showing a part of the bedside pocket 1 shown in FIG. In the illustrated example, the loop locking member 14 is formed by folding both ends of an elongate member such as a piece of cloth or plastic to be fixed to the base 10 by stitching or bonding, and a substantially intermediate portion of the elongate member is also attached to the base 10. Similarly, a pair of loops 14a and 14b are formed by being fixed. Therefore, in each of the loops 4a and 14b, for example,
It is suitable for hooking and locking a watch or a ballpoint pen. In another embodiment, it is possible to make one end of the loop locking body 14 detachable by a hook, in which case, for example, a cord for a nurse call can be locked. is there. In addition, the loop stopper is
Any number of loops can be provided at any location on the substrate 10 and / or one or more pockets.

FIG. 4 shows the back surface of the bedside pocket 1. In this case, a pair of substantially rectangular bases 10 extend substantially perpendicularly to both ends of the pocket 10 and are spaced apart from each other. The fixing members 16a and 16b
It is stuck to. In the preferred embodiment, these fixing members 16a and 16b can be formed by fixing a one-touch magic tape (for example, free magic manufactured by Kuraray Co., Ltd.) to the base 10 by sewing or the like. Another example is to provide an appropriate number of female and male hooks,
Alternatively, it is also possible to provide an appropriate number of straps along a pair of ends where the pockets of the base are not provided, and fix the bedside pocket 1 to the support by appropriately tying the corresponding straps. . The fixing means such as the fixing members 16a and 16b can be fixed so that the inner part is shorter than the outer part when the bedside pocket 1 is hung on a support such as a side guard. It is good to do. Because, for example, there is a futon of the patient inside, and by setting the inside short, it is easy to put in and take out small items, and it is possible to prevent small items from accidentally falling. It is.

Next, the usage of the bedside pocket 1 will be described. As described above, since the bedside pocket 1 is made of, for example, a thin cloth and can be easily bent, for example, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the bedside pocket 1 is placed on the side guard 2b of the patient bed. And bends along the dotted line AA shown in FIG. Then, the bedside pocket 1 is hung on the side guard 2b in a state of being bent substantially in half. In this case, in the illustrated example, the bent portion inside the bed is bent so as to be shorter than the bent portion outside the bed. This is, in the case of the example shown,
One large pocket on the outside of the bed
3a and 13b are provided so that relatively large small articles such as newspapers and magazines can be stored, so that the bent portion outside the bed has a sufficient vertical length. It is to make it. However, in the bedside pocket 1 of the present invention, the bending position can be arbitrarily set at any time according to the way of arranging the pockets and the specific usage. As described above, when the bending position can be set to an arbitrary position, the fixing member 16
Preferably, a and 16b are made of a magic tape.

Although the specific embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail, the present invention should not be limited to only these specific examples, without departing from the technical scope of the present invention. Of course, various modifications are possible. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the case where the device is used by hanging it on the side guard of the bed has been described. Of course, it is also possible to use by hanging on such a guard. Furthermore, the bedside pocket of the present invention is characterized in that it can be conveniently used by a person lying down, so it is not limited to a bed for a sick person, for example, laid on a tatami mat It is a matter of course that a screen-like support such as a washcloth can be located adjacent to a certain futon and used on the support. Therefore, the term "bed" as used in the present invention refers to the term "bed", which does not necessarily mean only Western beds, but also includes Japanese futons. You should be careful.

[0015]

According to the present invention, it is possible for a person lying on a bed such as a western bed or a Japanese futon to easily store and remove small articles around him while substantially lying down. It is possible. Therefore, especially in the case of a sick person, it is possible to store and remove small items around them without forcing the body to move unnecessarily, which is not only convenient for the sick person, but also It is possible to reduce the burden. In particular, when used in a patient bed in a hospital, it is possible to safely store small items required by the patient, and furthermore, it is possible to easily remove the sheet from the support when exchanging sheets, etc. There is no unnecessary burden on the patient.
