ran AND BED VESSEL.
Application filed October 10, 1927. Serial No. 225,348.
, This invent-ion relates to an improved pad and bedvessel, and has for an object to provide an improved construction which may be used in the same way as an ordinary bedpan for patients who cannot leave the bed, the structure being efficient as a pan and at the same time comfortable when in use.
Another object of the invention is to pro vide an improved bedpan structure or pad and vessel, in which a cushion is presented for supporting the body or certain parts of the body when the device is in use.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a pad and vessel so formed that they may be connected and disconnected at any time, the pad being so formed as to be readily left in the bed beneath the patient without discomfort, whereby the pan or vessel may be inserted and removed frequently without appreciably discommoding the patient.
In the accompanying drawing Figure 1 is a perspective view of a bed with a pad and vessel positioned thereon.
Figure 2 is an enlarged top plan view of a pad disclosing an embodiment of the invention.
Figure 3 is a sectional view through Figure 2 on line 3-3.
Figure 4 is a top plan view of the vessel shown in Figure 1, the same being shown on an enlarged scale.
Figure 5 is a sectional view through Figure 4 on line 55.
Referring to the accompanying drawing by numerals, 1 indicates a bed of any desired kind, 2 the pad embodying certain features of the invention, and 3 the vessel co-acting with the pad 2. The pad and pan have been shown on a bed to indicate substantially the location when in use, but it will be evident that when in use, the covers are removed or partly removed, and the pad and pan inserted beneath the patient.
In bedpans heretofore, containers have been provided which are usually high and wide. These pans require considerable shifting of the patient and present usually cold surfaces which come in contact with the flesh and which are, therefore, more or less obj ectionable. In the present invention, a combined pad and pan is presented which overcomes these objections and other objections, as well as presenting certain decided advantages.
In forming the pad 2, the same is made when in use.
from a resilient absorbent body 4: and a covering 5. The body 4 may be made from dif- 'ferent materials, but preferably from rubcrescent-shaped whereby a large opening 7 is provided and tapering ends 8 and 9, as well as a central support 10. The opening 7 is designed to receive the pan 3, while the tapering ends 8 and 9 fit into the tapering portions or sockets 11 and 12 formed by certain parts of the pan.
As indicated in Figures 4 and 5, pan 3 is formed with a large body 13 which is adapted to receive the excretions which may flow into the forward portion 14 if necessary, and also to the latter portions or arms 15 and 16. These latter portions fit over the outside of the pointed sections 8 and 9 and assist in enlarging the capacity of the pan without presenting an objectionable size or shape. Preferably the pad 2 is appreciably thicker than the pan as indicated by the dot and dash lines 17 which indicate the location of the pan The pan is preferably made from metal, though it could be made from some other durable material. As the pan is made from metal, it may be readily cleaned and sterilized whenever desired. As the pad is made preferably from sponge or porous rubber and a covering of fabric, this may be also readily washed and sterilized whenever desired, Also, in case the covering 5 becomes stained, a new one may be supplied at any time at a very small cost. In the drawing, the pad 2 is provided with a flattened rear surface or end 2, though this portion of the pad could be some other shape without departing from the spirit of the invention. The flattened section or portion 2 is intended as a surface against which pillows or other supports may be placed.
In operation, preferably the pad 2 is placed in position beneath the patient and left in that position, particularly where the patient is bedridden and needs the bedpan rather often. When the pad is in place, pan 3 may be readily inserted and removed without shifting the legs of the patient and, consequently, without any inconvenience.
It will be evident that the pad could be made of other shapes than that illustrated, particularly in regard to the opening 7, provided this opening is of a. shape to receive the pan and co-act therewith. It will also be observed that the pad, including the covering is washable, and also capable of being sterilized as well as being resilient and absorbent. The device when in use may be not only used for excretions and urine, but may have other uses, such as sterile catherization and return flow of irrigations.
What I claimis:
.1. A combined pad and bedvessel, comprising a supporting pad structure formed with a recess in one side and a flat portion on the other side the material ofthe pad adjacent said recess presenting substantially facing arms, and a pan structure formed with a body acting as a container, said body conforming in shape'to said recess and formed with notches for receiving said arms, said pad being sufficiently flexible to permit said body to be inserted and removed without dislocating the pad.
2. A combined bedvessel and pad, comprising a resilient pad of absorbent resilient heat radiating material having a substantially oval-shaped opening, a pan having an ovalshaped body removably fitted into said open ing, said pan having a pair of arms overlapping said pad near said opening,
3. In a pad and bedvessel, a substantially oval-shaped pan formed at one end with a projection merging into laterally and rear wardly extending arms, and a pad positioned to substantially surround said oval-shaped pan, said pad being normally of greater thickness than the pan.
4. In a pad and bedvessel, a receptacle formed at one point with laterally and rearwardly extending arms whereby notches will be provided between the arms and the main body of the vessel, and a resilient pad having arms extending into said notches and substantially filling the same.
5. In a substantially oval-shaped pad and bedvessel, a receptacle formed of washable and sterilizable material having a pad receiving body, formed at one end with a projection merging into laterally and rearwardly extending arms whereby a notch will be provided between the arms and the body 01"? the vessel.
