Description

Curved safety bar for hospital bed {CURVED SAFETY BAR FOR HOSPIRAL BED}

The present invention relates to a curved safety bar for a hospital bed, and in detail, the safety bar installed on both sides of the bed in the width direction is formed in a curved form inside the bed, when dismantled and stored on both sides of the bed spread out on the bed The present invention relates to a flexible safety bar for a hospital bed, which allows the patient to move away from the lying patient's body and then lay it down under the bed for safe use.

As the aging population progresses rapidly, hospital beds are increasingly used in homes and nursing homes. The patient bed for hospitals is elevated after being installed in the vertical direction and installed at the upper side of the bed.If the safety bar is not needed, the patient bed is lowered and stored at the bottom of the bed. In most cases, they are stored lying down in one direction and folded. However, many questions have been raised about the safety of the above-mentioned safety bars of hospital patient beds used in general hospitals, nursing homes and rehabilitation hospitals.

In other words, in the case of a safety bar (guard rail) of a patient bed for a hospital patient who is uncomfortable or has a significantly lower cognitive function, lacerations, bruises, fractures, etc., in which a finger or part of the body is torn due to pinching or folding of the safety bar This is common. In Japan, an accident has been reported in which a patient's neck is caught by a safety bar. In addition, the original function of the conventional safety bar of the hospital patient bed is to prevent the fall of the patient, but if the patient overturns or moves too much, the structure is easy to fall out of the bed too easily.

In addition, when using a thick mattress to prevent bedsores of patients there is a problem that the safety bar that is erected on the bed is low to properly demonstrate its function to prevent the safety accident.

Therefore, there are two major problems that cause a safety accident by the safety bar of the conventional hospital bed.

(1) When lowering or folding the safety bar, an accident occurs that part of the body is pinched because the safety bar's copper wire is only vertical or one-way.

(2) When the safety bar is raised, the accident occurs when the patient's body falls over it, because the safety bar exists only vertically in a straight line as a wall.

The present invention has been made to improve the above-described problems, the object of which is to configure the shape of the safety bar bent into the bed to be easily recognized to limit movement even in patients with poor cognitive function Even when dismantling and storing the built-up safety bar, it is a curved type for a hospital bed that spreads outwards from both sides of the bed and moves away from the patient's body lying on the bed to prevent safety accidents such as part of the body being caught. In providing a safety bar.

In order to achieve the above object, the curved safety bar for a hospital bed of the present invention is a safety bar installed on both sides in the width direction of a bed used in a hospital, wherein the safety bar is bent toward the inside of the bed so that both sides of the bed When the safety bar is not needed, the safety bar is separated from the fixing part, and when the safety bar is not needed, the safety bar is separated from each other on both sides of the bed and laid out apart from the patient's body lying on the bed. It is stored in the inner space under the mattress on both sides.

In addition, a portion of the lower end of the safety bar that is bent into the bed is bent to the opposite side, and a portion of the lower portion of the safety bar that is bent to the opposite side is inserted into an insertion groove formed as a fixing part along the longitudinal direction at both side lower ends of the bed, It is preferable to use the safety bars upright on both sides of the bed by the insertion grooves, and when the safety bars are not needed, the safety bars are separated from the insertion grooves and then laid down in the inner space under the mattress.

In addition, the safety bar preferably comprises a plurality of vertical bending bars that are vertically erect at regular intervals, and each horizontal bar connecting the upper end of each vertical bending bar to each other and at the same time the lower end.

According to the curved safety bar for the hospital bed of the present invention, when standing up and using the safety bar, it is standing in a curved form inside the bed, the patient can easily recognize this, there is an effect that can prevent the fall accident falling out of the bed.

In addition, when the safety bar is stored, the safety bar is dismantled away from the patient's body lying on the bed by moving away from both sides of the bed, so that a safety accident caused by a part of the body is caught in the safety bar in advance. It can be effective.

In addition, since the lower part of the safety bar is bent toward the opposite side, the lower part of the safety bar is inserted into the insertion grooves formed at both lower ends of the bed, so that the safety bar can be stably fixed. .

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings a preferred embodiment of the curved safety bar for a hospital bed according to the present invention will be described in detail. It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, It is provided to inform.

1 is a perspective view of a hospital bed in use with a curved safety bar according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view taken along the line A-A of FIG.

As shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, in the curved safety bar for hospital beds according to the present invention, the safety bars 2 installed on both sides in the width direction of the bed 1 are curved, and the bed At the lower end portions of both sides of (1), insertion grooves 3 are formed as fixing portions for standing and fixing the lower ends of the safety bars 2.

The safety bar (2) is composed of a plurality of vertical bending bar (2a) and a horizontal bar (2b) standing vertically at regular intervals, the horizontal wave (2b) is the upper end of the vertical bending bar (2a) At the same time, the lower ends of the vertical bending bar 2a are connected to each other, and the vertical bending bar 2a is gently curved toward the bed 1, and the vertical bending bar 2a The lower part is gently curved in the opposite direction to the upper part.

The insertion groove 3 is formed as a groove extending in the longitudinal direction at the lower end of both sides of the bed 1, the lower part of the safety bar (2) is inserted into the insertion groove (3) by the safety bar (2) It is used to fix the upright part. At this time, the lower part of the safety bar (2) is gently curved in the opposite direction to the upper side when inserted into the insertion groove (3), the safety bar (2) can be stably set up and fixed.

Figure 3 is a perspective view of a hospital bed lying down bent safety bar according to the present invention, Figure 4 shows a longitudinal cross-sectional view along line B-B of FIG.

As described above, when the safety bar 2 is used upright, it is stored in the space under the bed 1, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, in the empty space under the mattress of the bed 1. The safety bar 2 is laid down and stored, respectively.

The process of keeping the safety bar (2) lying down is made as follows.

5A and 5B illustrate longitudinal cross-sectional views illustrating a process of dismantling and storing a curved safety bar according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 5A, the safety bar 1 is erected and used by the insertion groove 3, which is a fixed part (FIGS. 1 and 2), and the lower end of the safety bar 2 inserted into the insertion groove 3. Lift up a part to separate from the insertion groove (3).

Then, as shown in 5b, the safety bar (2) separated from the insertion groove (3) on both sides of the bed (1) spread out on both sides of the bed (1) and the patient lying on the bed (1) Lying down to move away, put into the empty space under the mattress of the bed (1), and then completely laid down at the bottom of the bed (1) will be in the form as shown in Figs.

The curved safety bar of the present invention configured and used as described above moves away from the body of the patient lying on the bed 1 by spreading outwards from both sides of the bed 1 as the safety bar 2 descends. If a part of the body is sandwiched between the safety bar (2) and the bed (1) is not vertical, but spreads on both sides of the streamlined because it can easily escape from the body itself.

And when the safety bar (2) is upright, the safety bar (2) in a curved form is looking inward to protect the patient lying on the bed (1). This is a design for the patient of the bed with low cognitive function, which is intended to prevent psychologically crossing the safety bar (2). The reason for doing this is to look at the structure and design of the safety bar installed on the platform of the subway station. It is understandable that it is curved towards the platform.

As a result, if the safety bar (guard rail) of a straight hospital patient bed is improved to a curved streamlined inside the bed as in the prior art, the patient can prevent a safety accident caused by a part of the body stuck in the safety bar in advance. This will reduce the safety bar's lowering speed relative to lowering the safety bar straight down. Therefore, even if a part of the patient's body lying on the bed is stuck in the safety bar, the slow descending speed will not cause major injuries such as fractures. Many problems to be solved will be solved.

As described above with reference to the drawings illustrated for the curved safety bar for hospital bed according to the present invention, the present invention is not limited by the embodiments and drawings disclosed herein, the scope of the technical idea of the present invention Of course, various modifications can be made by those skilled in the art.
