Description

  The present invention relates to a bed apparatus provided with a table plate for placing small items on the side of a bed main body.

  When using the bed apparatus, it is convenient if various accessories such as a jug, a light stand or glasses can be placed on the bedside. Therefore, a night table is installed on the side of the bed apparatus, and the above-mentioned accessories are placed on the surface of the night table.

  The night table installed on the side of the bed apparatus is usually placed near a bedside that is easy for the user to use, that is, near the headboard. However, if the user of the bed apparatus is an elderly person or a sick person, the caregiver or doctor must approach the user's bedside and perform care or medical examination. In that case, the night table installed at the user's bedside may be in the way and must be moved.

  Conventionally, the night table is installed on the floor surface on the side of the bed apparatus. The night table is relatively heavy and may be difficult to hold due to its rectangular parallelepiped shape. For this reason, when the caregiver or doctor cares for an elderly person or sick person or sees the patient, the night table may not be easily moved, or the night table is moved without being lifted. There were things such as scratching the surface.

  Also, there are various types of bed devices, for example, a so-called back-up type bed device that can raise the upper body of a user who is supine, and is stored on the lower surface side of the bed body on which the mattress is placed. 2. Description of the Related Art A so-called storage type bed apparatus is known in which a space portion is formed and a drawer can be inserted into and removed from the space portion.

  By the way, in the back-up type bed apparatus, the night table installed on the side of the bed main body is normally installed at a position where the user does not wake up, that is, in a position where he / she is most comfortable to use. .

  The position where the night table is easy to use in a state where the user is supine is usually the side of the user's head, that is, the bedside. However, when the bed apparatus is raised up and the user's upper body is raised, the easy-to-use position of the night table moves to the user's feet as the back raising angle increases, unlike when the user lies on his back. For example, when the user's upper body is raised to about 60 to 70 degrees, it is easier to use the night table on the side of the user's buttocks.

  However, even in such a case, it may not be easy for the user to shift the position of the night table according to the back-up.

  As described above, since the night table is conventionally installed on the side of the bed apparatus, it is not easy to change the position so that the night table does not get in the way.

The present invention is to provide a bed apparatus which can be repositioned against the longitudinal direction of the bed body of the table plate which can be used as a night table easily.

The present invention includes a bed main body having a side frame on which a mattress is placed,
An attachment member provided with a table plate at the upper end and an abutting body swingable at the lower end and adjustable in protruding length;
One end is fixed to the middle part of the attachment member, and an engagement member is provided at the other end. The engagement member is detachably engaged with an arbitrary position in the longitudinal direction of the side frame, and the contact body is A support member for holding the table plate on the side frame via the mounting member by contacting the outer surface of the side frame ;
In the bed apparatus, the attachment member is held by the support member so as to be inclined away from the outer surface of the side frame as it goes from the lower end to the upper end .

According to the present invention, the table plate can be detachably engaged and held at an arbitrary position in the longitudinal direction of the side frame. Therefore, the table plate can be easily moved to an easy-to-use position or an unobstructed position. it can.

  A first embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the bed apparatus of the present invention. This bed apparatus includes a bed body 1. This bed main body 1 is formed in a rectangular frame shape by connecting one end in the longitudinal direction of a pair of side frames 2 (only one shown) with a footboard 3 and connecting the other end with a headboard 4.

  As shown in FIG. 2, receiving bars 5 are provided on the inner surfaces of the pair of side frames 2, and floor plates 6 are installed on these receiving bars 5 with both end portions in the width direction engaged. A mattress 7 is placed on the upper surface of the floor plate 6.

  A table plate 11 is slidably and detachably provided on at least one of the pair of side frames 2. That is, the table plate 11 is made of a rectangular plate material, and an engagement member 12 having a U-shaped cross section is connected and fixed to one end surface of the table plate 11 in a predetermined direction with a screw or the like not shown in the drawing. Has been. The engaging member 12 is formed so that the one side is shorter than the other side.

  The engagement member 12 is formed such that the dimension between the inner surfaces of the pair of side edges is slightly larger than the thickness dimension of the side frame 2, and the upper end portion of the side frame 2 is sandwiched between the pair of side edges. Thus, it is provided to be engaged with the upper end portion of the side frame 2. Accordingly, the table plate 11 can slide along the longitudinal direction of the side frame 2 and can be attached to and detached from the side frame 2.

  The engaging member 12 has a soft sheet-like member such as felt (not shown) attached to its inner surface so that the side frame 2 is not damaged when it is slid along the side frame 2. It has become.

  A support plate 14 is brought into contact with the lower surface of one end of the table plate 11 in the predetermined direction, and is attached and fixed by a bracket 15 having a triangular side surface. That is, the bracket 15 is connected and fixed to the lower surface of the table plate 11 and one end surface of the support plate 14 by screws (not shown). Thereby, the table plate 11 and the support plate 14 are substantially perpendicular.

  At the lower end of the outer surface of the support plate 4, a contact member 17 formed in a rectangular shape or a belt shape with a flexible material having a predetermined thickness such as felt is provided in the width direction of the support plate 4 over a predetermined interval or almost the entire length. It has been. The contact member 17 is in contact with the outer surface of the side frame 2 to hold the table plate 11 substantially horizontally, and when the table plate 11 is slid along the longitudinal direction of the side frame 2, the support plate 4 prevents the outer surface of the side frame 2 from being rubbed and damaged.

  According to the bed apparatus configured as described above, the table plate 11 is provided to be slidable with respect to the side frame 2 by the engaging member 12. Therefore, the table board 11 can be moved from the position on the headboard 4 side indicated by the solid line in FIG. 1, that is, from the position on the bedside of the user to the foot side indicated by the chain line in FIG.

  Therefore, when a user who lies on the mattress 7 uses the table board 11, the user can easily use the table board 11 by positioning the table board 11 on the bedside indicated by the solid line. When the user is receiving care or receiving a medical examination, the table plate 11 can be moved to the foot side indicated by the chain line so as not to get in the way. Moreover, if the table board 11 is moved to the foot side, this table board 11 can also be used as a place for placing care products or diagnostic instruments, which is convenient.

  The table plate 11 is detachably attached to the side frame 2. Therefore, when the user receives care or medical examination as described above, the table plate 11 may be removed from the side frame 2 as long as it interferes.

  When the bed apparatus is a back-up type, the position of the table plate 11 that is easy for the user to use according to the back-up is moved from the bedside side to the foot side. In such a case, the user who has raised the upper body on the mattress 7 can easily slide the table plate 11 along the side frame 2 to a position where it can be easily used.

A flexible contact member 17 that contacts the outer surface of the side frame 2 is provided at the lower end of the support plate 14 that moves integrally with the table plate 11.
Therefore, when the table plate 11 is slid along the side frame 2, the contact member 17 contacts the outer surface of the side frame 2, and the support plate 14 is prevented from contacting the side frame 2 directly. It is possible to prevent the support plate 14 from rubbing and damaging the outer surface of the side frame 2.
In this embodiment, the table plate 11 and the engaging member 12 may be integrally formed with, for example, synthetic resin.

  FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, one of the three side sides of the bracket 15 having a triangular side surface shape is attached and fixed to the lower surface of the table plate 11, and the engagement member is attached to the side side perpendicular to the side side. One side of 12 is connected and fixed. That is, the table plate 11 is slidably and detachably provided on the side frame 2 by the engagement member 12 without using the support plate 14 as in the first embodiment.

  In this embodiment, one side connected to the bracket 15 of the engagement member 12 and the other side are set to have substantially the same length. Further, as in the first embodiment, a soft sheet-like member such as felt is stuck on the inner surface of the engaging member 12 so that the side frame 2 is not damaged when it is slid. It has become.

  According to such a configuration, the support plate 14 is not required as in the first embodiment, so that not only can the number of parts be reduced, but also when the table plate 11 is slid. The support plate 14 does not damage the outer surface of the side frame 2.

  4 to 7 show a third embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment has a support member 22 having a substantially J shape by bending the lower end portion of the pipe material into an arc shape. The lower end surface of the support member 22 is substantially vertical, and a disk-like contact member 23 is fixed to the lower end surface.

  A connecting member 24 in which a bar is bent in a substantially V shape is fixed to the lower end portion of the support member 22 at the top thereof to the support member 22 by means such as welding. An engaging member 25 having an L-shaped cross-section is fixed to the distal end portion (both end portions) of the connecting member 24.

  The support member 22 engages the engaging member 25 with the upper end surface of the side frame 2 and makes the contact member 23 contact the outer surface (side surface) of the side frame 2, thereby 2 is detachably engaged and held at an arbitrary position in the longitudinal direction.

  A table plate 11A is supported on the open upper end of the support member 22 so as to be adjustable in height in the vertical direction and rotatable in the horizontal direction. That is, the table plate 11A has a planar shape that is elongated along a predetermined direction as shown in FIG. 6 and FIGS. 7A and 7B, and is an isosceles triangle in this embodiment. A rectangular attachment plate 26 is attached and fixed to the lower surface thereof with screws 27 along the longitudinal direction of the table plate 11A.

  A bush 28 is attached to the upper end of the support member 22, and a slide member 29 made of a pipe material having an upper end fixed to the mounting plate 26 is inserted into and supported by the bush 28 so as to be slidable and rotatable.

  A nut 31 is welded to the upper portion of the support member 22, and a wing screw 32 is screwed onto the nut 31. When the thumbscrew 32 is screwed in, the tip end portion protrudes inward from a through hole 33 formed in the peripheral wall of the support member 22, and comes into pressure contact with the outer peripheral surface of the slide member 29. Accordingly, the table plate 11A is provided so that the height can be adjusted by the slide member 29 and the rotation angle in the horizontal direction can be adjusted.

  According to such a configuration, the support member 22 provided with the table plate 11 a engages the engagement member 25 with the side frame 2 at an arbitrary position in the longitudinal direction of the side frame 2, and causes the contact member 23 to move. By being brought into contact with the side surface of the side frame 2, the engagement can be maintained. Therefore, the user can move the table plate 11A to a position that is easy to use in the longitudinal direction of the side frame 2 or to a position that does not get in the way when not in use.

  That is, by engaging / disengaging the engagement member 25 with respect to the side frame 2, the table plate 11A can be easily attached and detached together with the support member 22, so that the table plate 11A can be attached to any arbitrary longitudinal direction of the side frame 2. It can be easily moved to a position.

  If the table plate 11A loosens the thumbscrew 32 and moves the slide member 29 up and down, the height position can be changed, for example, from the position indicated by the solid line in FIG. Therefore, the user can easily position the table plate 11A at a height that is easy to use.

  The slide member 29 can be rotated in the horizontal direction with respect to the support member 22 if the thumbscrew 32 is loosened. Accordingly, the table plate 11A is held by rotating the longitudinal direction in a direction orthogonal to the side surface of the side frame 2 as shown in FIG. 7A, or the longitudinal direction as shown in FIG. By rotating at a slightly larger angle than 90 degrees from a state orthogonal to the side surface of the side frame 2, the longitudinal direction can be used along the side surface of the side frame 2. That is, the user can rotate the table plate 11A to an easy-to-use angle.

  In addition, the table plate 11A has an elongated planar shape along a predetermined direction, which is an isosceles triangle shape in this embodiment. Therefore, when not in use, the length dimension of the side frame 2 protruding outward can be reduced by rotating the longitudinal direction of the table plate 11A along the longitudinal direction of the side frame 2 as shown in FIG. . Therefore, it is possible to prevent the table plate 11A from getting in the way when not in use.

  In the third embodiment, the planar shape of the table plate is not limited to an isosceles triangle shape, and may be another shape such as a rectangular shape. What is necessary is just an elongate shape along the predetermined direction which is a shape which does not become obstructive.

  In addition, the slide member can be held at a desired height position and rotation angle by the thumbscrew, but instead of the thumbscrew, the pin is inserted into the slide member from the support member, so that the height of the slide member can be increased. The position and the rotation angle may be adjusted.

  8 to 11 show a fourth embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment has an attachment member 41 made of a straight pipe material. The upper end surface of the mounting member 41 is formed as a slope as shown in FIG. 10A, and a connecting plate 42 having a plate surface inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to the axis of the mounting member 41 is welded to the slope. It is fixed by. An elliptical table plate 11B is fixed to the connecting plate 42 with a screw 43 at the lower surface of one end in the longitudinal direction.

  As shown in FIGS. 11A and 11B, a cylindrical nut 44 is provided at the lower end of the mounting member 41 and in the same direction as the one end of the table plate 11B in the circumferential direction of the mounting member 41. Yes. A contact body 45 is provided on the cylindrical nut 44. The contact body 45 has a truncated cone shape, and one end of a male screw shaft 46 is connected to the end surface on the small diameter side so as to be able to swing in a 360 degree direction. The male screw shaft 46 is screwed onto the cylindrical nut 44 so as to be adjustable in length.

  In the middle of the mounting member 41, as shown in FIG. 10 (b), a support member 48 formed by bending a bar in a V shape is one end, and the top is fixed by welding or the like. . An engagement member 47 having an L-shaped cross section is fixed to both ends of the support member 48, which is the other end. As shown in FIGS. 10A and 10B, the support member 48 engages the engagement member 47 detachably with the upper end of the side frame 2 and slidable along the longitudinal direction of the side frame 2.

Accordingly, the end surface on the large diameter side of the contact body 45 contacts the outer surface of the side frame 2, so that the table plate 11 </ b> B provided at the upper end of the mounting member 41 is held by the side frame 2. At that time, if the protrusion length from the cylindrical nut 44 of the male screw shaft 46 provided so as to be swingable on the contact member 45 is adjusted by rotating the contact member 45, the table plate 11B becomes horizontal. Thus, the angle of the mounting member 41 can be maintained constant.

  FIG. 11B shows a modification of the fourth embodiment. In this embodiment, a side frame 2a having a plate thickness larger than that of the side frame 2 shown in FIG. 11A is used. Moreover, the upper end portion of the outer surface of the side frame 2a is provided over the entire length in the longitudinal direction of the decorative member 51 having a hook-like cross section.

  Thus, even if the thickness of the side frame 2a is different, the table provided at the upper end of the mounting member 41 can be adjusted by adjusting the protruding length of the male screw shaft 46 provided in the contact body 45. The angle of the mounting member 41 can be adjusted so that the plate 11B is horizontal.

  In addition, even if the decorative member 51 is provided on the upper outer surface of the side frame 2a, the attachment member 41 is in contact with the side frame 2a by the abutment body 45 and the intermediate portion is supported by the support member 48. Inclined and supported.

  That is, the attachment member 41 is supported so as to be gradually separated from the outer surface of the side frame 2a as it goes from the lower end to the upper end. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the attachment member 41 from interfering with the decorative member 51 provided on the side frame 2a.

  The support height of the table plate 11 </ b> B can be changed according to the length of the mounting member 41. In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the table plate 11B is located slightly higher than the upper surface of the mattress 7. However, if the mounting member 41 is shortened, the height of the table plate 11B is reduced to that of the first embodiment. It is also possible to make it lower than the upper surface of the mattress 7 as described above.

  Thus, according to the fourth embodiment, the support member 48 provided with the engagement member 47 is fixed to the middle of the attachment member 41 whose upper end is fixed to the table plate 11B, and the lower end of the attachment member 41 is fixed. The abutment body 45 is provided at the portion so as to be swingable and the protrusion length can be adjusted.

  Therefore, the engaging member 47 is slidably and detachably engaged with the upper ends of the side frames 2 and 2a, and the abutting body 45 is brought into contact with the side frames 2 and 2a, whereby the table plate 11B is It can be provided at an easy-to-use position or can be changed to any position along the longitudinal direction of the side frames 2 and 2a.

  In addition, a contact body 45 is provided at the lower end of the mounting member 41 so as to be swingable and the protruding length can be adjusted. Therefore, even if the bed body 1 has different thicknesses of the side frames 2 and 2a, the abutting body 45 can be brought into contact with the outer surface of the side frames 2 and 2a to reliably support the table plate 11B.
