Patent Application
20100088821
The invention relates to a nursing bed with air ventilation and thermal insulation functions for the use of bed-ridden paralyzed patients.
The existing nursing beds are limited in function, consisting of bedstead and mattress placed on the bedstead. The mattress is generally and simply made of thermal insulation materials. In summer, a piece of summer sleeping mat can be laid on the mattress with a view to cooling. But for a patient lying in the bed for a long time, owing to the poor ventilation at the side of the body lying on the mat, the patient often suffers from bedsore or frostbite; In addition, since patients can not take care of themselves, they often excrete the feces and urine in bed, which are difficult to be thoroughly washed and leave smell and further affect the living environment of the wards. The nursing bed in my original application put forward the use of meshed mattress facilitating solving problems in air ventilation and cleaning. However, there is still such defect as poor thermal insulation. To resolve the problem in such mattress for use in autumn and winter is therefore the subject of the invention.
The purpose of the invention is to design a nursing bed which is favorable in air ventilation, easy to clean, and features by thermal insulation.
The technical proposal of the invention is realized as follows: a thermal insulation nursing bed comprises a bed frame and supporting legs; the upper edge of the bed frame is provided with a tightened meshed sheet body while the bottom edge of the bed frame is provided with a thermal insulation bottom hood for thermal insulation of the bottom of the meshed sheet body. When the upper part of the body of the patient is covered with a quilt and other beddings, the patient lying in bed will be kept warm. The meshed sheet body is characterized by being favorable in ventilation and easy to clean.
The bottom hood is arranged at the place where the hip of the patient lays, in the shape of a concave funnel; an outlet is arranged at the lowest place of the funnel, which facilitates the discharge of flushing water.
The thermal insulation bottom hood at least comprises a strengthening layer, a thermal insulation material layer, and a waterproofing layer at the inner surface. The strengthening layer ensures that the thermal insulation material layer can be firmly attached and not be easily damaged in the washing operations. The waterproofing layer can effectively prevent sewage water from polluting or eroding the strengthening layer and the thermal insulation material layer.
The invention, rational in design and simple in structure, effectively solves problems of the traditional nursing bed on which the patient tends to suffer from bedsore or frostbite due to poor ventilation and facilitates cleaning the bed since sewage water can be directly discharged out through a discharge outlet at the bottom. If an air-conditioner is arranged in the space formed by the thermal insulation layer, not only the easy control of temperature, but also the dehumidification can be realized; thus the back of the patient can be kept dry and cool, reducing the chance of suffering from skin diseases and further facilitating the nursing work.
Further explanations will be given below by way of specific legends illustrated:

With reference to
In addition, in the funnel-shaped structure 41, a spray head is provided. Therefore, spraying and cleaning upwards from the bottom of the meshed sheet body 3 is available; thus the cleaning can be performed from the upper side and the lower side and all corners can be cleaned.
With reference to
With reference to
Furthermore, the meshed sheet body 3 can be of stamping molding, round meshes, rectangular meshes, hexagonal or octagonal meshes. Mesh diameter or the largest diagonal shall be less than 30 mm.
The meshed sheet body 3 can be made from woven fibers, or be woven into round meshes or a variety of geometric shapes. The diameter of the mesh or the largest diameter or diagonal line shall be less than 30 times of the diameter of the fibers.
The meshed sheet body 3 is made of transparent or translucent materials in order to facilitate observation of the inner space of the thermal insulation bottom hood and penetration of infrared and ultraviolet. The more flexible is the material, the better.
In order to facilitate the bed-ridden patient in feces and urine excretion, a through-hole 45 facilitating feces and urine excretion is designed at the meshed sheet body at the place where hip of the patient lays; thus the patient can directly defecate through the through-hole, thus facilitating nursing work on the one hand and avoiding smearing the meshed sheet body and reducing the work for cleaning the meshed sheet body on the other.
