Patent

CA 2231995

The invention includes several devices (100, 250, 300, 400, 500, 602, 800, 900, 940, 1000, 1040, 1110, 1120) for readily transferring patients from one platform to another by one attendant. A first system (100) of horizontal transfer of patients (126) is adapted to use existing transfer sheets (190) and cart (102) appropriately modified. A transfer sheet (190) is attached to a clamping device (194) that has a releasable catch (200) that holds the sheet (190) in a cavity (198). A plurality of straps (172) are attached to the clamping device (194). The other ends of the straps (172) are attached to reels (175) that are part of a winch (138). Activation of the winch (138) winds the straps (172) onto the reels (175). The invention also includes improved bed jackets (702) that can be attached to a winch (712, 726) for lifting a patient either to re-position them on a surface or to transport them. The invention also includes devices (574, 1200, 1200') with very low friction surfaces to assist with the transfer process.

Cette invention concerne plusieurs dispositifs (100, 250, 300, 400, 500, 602, 800, 900, 940, 984, 1000, 1040, 1110, 1120) servant à transférer facilement d'une plate-forme à une autre des patients accompagnés. Un premier système (100) de transfert horizontal de patients (126) permet d'utiliser des draps existants (190) et un chariot (102) modifié de façon appropriée. Un drap (190) est fixé à un dispositif de serrage (194) qui possède un système de blocage libérable (200) retenant le drap (190) dans une cavité (198). Une pluralité de sangles (172) sont fixées au dispositif de serrage (194). Les autres extrémités des sangles (172) sont fixées aux poulies (175) d'un treuil (138). Les sangles (172) s'enroulent sur les poulies (175) lors de l'actionnement du treuil (138). Des couvertures de lit améliorées (702) sont également prévues et peuvent être fixées à un treuil (712, 726) en vue de soulever le patient soit pour le replacer sur une surface, soit pour le transporter. L'invention concerne également des dispositifs (574, 1200, 1200') dont les surfaces à très faible friction facilitent le processus de transfert.
