Abstract

A bed (10) with linen changing means comprises features that allow the mattress linen (120) to be changed and/or occupant's skin in contact with mattress (62) /linen to be aired without requiring an occupant to leave the bed. The bed frame provides a matrix of slats (28) which support the occupant while the mattress is lowered for occupant airing and then extended for linen changing. The mattress comprises a plurality of horizontal mattress sections (63) spaced apart allowing corresponding insertion between the slats until said slats are recessed within the mattress and a user is able to lie comfortably upon raised portions of the mattress. The mattress is supported by a mobile frame apparatus (60) being vertically adjustable via a manually- operated crank (82) and gear assembly (86, 88, 90) such that a caretaker may lower and slide the mattress outward while the bed occupant rests upon the slats, providing easy access to the mattress for purposes of changing bed linens. The mattress is then slid inward and raised back into place to support the occupant.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS
received by the International Bureau on 21 June 2011 (21.06.11)
1/ A bed which comprises a conventional bed frame structure further comprising an . intermediate mobile frame structure which contains and supports a mattress assembly which may be lowered away from an occupant via a lifting mechanism in order to air the occupant's skin. During said lowering of the said mattress assembly, the occupant is temporarily supported upon a stationary matrix of support members. After airing the patient, the mattress assembly may be raised to once again support the occupant in a normal manner.
2/ A bedding apparatus, comprising
a frame;
a mattress; said frame and said mattress being relatively positioned
in a first configuration or in a second configuration;
wherein in said first configuration said mattress is covered with a linen sheet and is placed right below from said frame while an occupant be fully supported by said frame, and in said second configuration said mattress along with said linen sheet is horizontally separated from said frame to expose said mattress along with said linen sheet to allow said linen sheet be removed from said mattress and a fresh one be replaced thereon.
3/ A bed according to claim 2, wherein it comprises an upper frame assembly 20, a foot board frame assembly 24, a head board frame assembly 26, a lower frame assembly 40, a lifting mechanism 80 which moves a lifting mechanism rail portions 72 vertically, a mobile frame assembly 60 which is positioned between said upper 20 and lower 40 frame assemblies and is horizontally slide-ably mounted to said lifting mechanism rail portions 72, a mattress assembly 62 which is supported by the said mobile frame assembly 60, a linen 120 put on said mattress assembly 62. The upper frame assembly 20 further comprises a unitary structure having a plurality permanently affixed integral parallel support members 28 which span across in a coplanar fashion between side rail frame members 22, the lower frame assembly 40 further comprises a unitary frame which provides a mounting means to a lifting mechanism 80 at a foot end portion of the bed. The said upper 20 and lower 40 frame assemblies further comprise locking collars 30 which are rigidly fixed to their corners. Said locking collars 30 comprise hollow fittings having inner dimensions sized so as to allow sliding insertion of vertical members of the foot 24 and head 26 frame assemblies. Said locking collars 30 further comprise threaded fasteners 150 to clamp and maintain a desired position of said locking collars 30 upon said foot 24 and head 26 frame assembly members.
4/ A bed according to claim 3, wherein the mobile frame assembly 60 comprises a unitary frame 64 having slightly smaller horizontal dimensions with respect to the previously described upper frame assembly 20, a pair of rigidly fixed support members 70 along foot and a head end portions, a pair of integral vertical legs 66 being located at corner positions along a leading edge, and a pair of respective casters 68 fixed to lower ends of the integral vertical legs 66. The said support members 70 is slide-ably mounted to said lifting mechanism rail portions 72.
5/ A bed according to claim 3, wherein the mattress assembly 62 comprises a plurality of parallel and equally-spaced mattress sections 63. Said mattress sections 63 are mounted to said unitary frame 64. Adjacent mattress sections 63 are particularly spaced apart so as to allow insertion of said support member 28 in between upon raising the mattress assembly 62 to normal in-use position. The raising of the mattress assembly 62 allows the mattress sections 63 to interweave with, and extend slightly above the support members 28, to comfortably support the occupant 160. The mattress section 63 further comprises an upper mattress padding portion 65 and a lower mattress slat 67. Each mattress slat 67 supports a respective mattress section 63 which spans a distance between opposing side mobile frame members 64 of the mobile frame assembly 60. Said mattress slats 67 comprise rigid board-like elements.
6/ A bed according to claim 3, wherein the lifting mechanism 80 comprises a hand crank 82, a crank shaft 84, a gear housing 86, an output shaft 92, and additional mechanical linkage necessary to move the said lifting mechanism rails portions 72 vertically when the hand crank 82 is turned. Said gear housing 86 further comprises a pinion gear 88 and a ring gear 90 which provide a conventional torque multiplying gear ratio, thereby proportionally reducing a required force to be applied by the caregiver to the hand crank 82. Said lifting mechanism rails portions 72 further comprise sliding collars 31 rigidly fixed at both ends which are similar in construction to the aforementioned locking collars 30 and provide a vertical sliding connection to the foot 24 and head 26 frame assemblies.
7/ A bed according to claim 3, wherein linen 120 is tucked down in between the mattress sections 63 of the mattress assembly 62 to form respective creases 122. The linen 120 is therefore having greater length than the conventional bed linen.
8/ A bedding apparatus of claim 2, further comprising an assembly for effecting a change of said bedding apparatus from said first configuration to said second configuration or vice versa.
