Hospital bed with a movable mattress and a method for moving a patient
A hospital bed provides improved handling of non-ambulatory patients and others who cannot easily be moved, such as to a hospital room toilet. The hospital bed includes a flexible mattress and a belt attached to the flexible mattress ends. The hospital bed frame has a pallet for supporting the flexible mattress and a chute attached to the frame beneath the pallet that receives the end of the flexible mattress. Multiple rollers direct the flexible mattress and belt. A motor supplies rotational force to one of the rollers and one of the rollers also provides for bending the flexible mattress to enter the chute, so that the end of the flexible mattress is guided underneath the pallet. A system includes the hospital bed with a detachable sanitary station. The sanitary station includes a toilet top and unites with the bed to deliver the patient to a position atop the toilet.
SYSTEM AND DEVICE FOR URINATION
A system and device are provided for self-help urination for bed ridden users as well as females to enable urinating standing up. The system enables auto-monitoring of urination of in-cognitive bedridden patients or cognitive patients and evacuating the urine to a storage canister. Currently, such patients are invasively inserted catheters to evacuate urine with subsequent vulnerability to infections and expensive post-operation processes. The device is provided with the capability to capture a flowing stream of urine. In a flowing stream, any escape of fluid from the vacuum zone is manifest as leakage which is not acceptable. The invention provides genital device customized to males and females, to safely vacuum the urine by placing it on the genitals without discomfort to the patient. The process of introducing air during suction also dries the genitals thus significantly reducing the risks of infection.
PORTABLE URINAL MOUNTING ASSEMBLY
A portable urinal mounting assembly selectively connectable to a walker having a pair of side support assemblies including upper and lower support braces. The mounting assembly comprises an body sleeve adapted to receive a portable urinal. Front left and right straps and rear left and right straps are attached to the body sleeve. Each of the front and rear left and right straps have an end portion including an attachment device. The end portions of the straps are arranged and designed to be removably secured to the upper and lower support braces of the pair of side support assemblies.
Suction seat for intelligent nursing toilet bowl
The invention discloses a suction seat for an intelligent nursing toilet bowl. The suction seat comprises a housing installed on a base, the interior of the housing is an inner cavity, a temperature and humidity sensor, an excrement sensor and a flushing nozzle are respectively installed in the cavity body of the inner cavity, a urine sensor is arranged on the outer side of the lower part of the cavity body, and a discharge port connected with an external negative pressure pipeline is vertically formed in the bottom of the cavity body; and a cleaning device and a ventilation device which are communicated with the interior of the cavity body are arranged on the outer side of the rear part of the cavity body. The cleaning device can automatically adjust the height of the nozzle as well as the pressure and flow rate of running water, thereby realizing overall cleaning on human hip, and overcoming the defects that the existing nozzle is fixed and the flushing area cannot be adjusted. Since the temperature and humidity sensor is arranged inside the suction seat, optimal skin comfort is achieved by adjusting air parameters under the circumstance that neither excrement nor urine is generated. The whole suction seat is compact in structure, and high cleanness of the inner cavity is kept after long-term use; and the whole suction seat adopting the structural design conforming to ergonomics achieves an optimal using effect.

LOW-PROFILE BEDPANS
A bedpan having a housing including a chamber, a top portion including an opening to the chamber and having a circumferential edge, a proximal surface including an apron surrounding the opening, the apron extending from a circumferential edge of the proximal surface to the circumferential edge of the opening, and an angled side wall surrounding the apron, and a bottom portion including a distal surface opposite the proximal surface, and a distal edge of the distal surface, the chamber positioned interior to the housing, the side walls of the chamber being interior to the side wall such that there is space between the walls of the chamber and the side wall, the side wall angled outward as it extends from the circumferential edge of the proximal surface towards the distal edge of the distal surface, and a first handle formed on a first portion of the housing.
Portable urinal assembly
A portable urinal assembly for receiving a scrotum and a penis of an obese person while urinating therein includes a container that has a bottom wall, a top wall and a perimeter wall that is attached to and extends between the top wall and the bottom wall such that a receiving space is formed therein. The receiving space holds urine. The perimeter wall has a front side, a back side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side. The top wall has an opening that extends therethrough. The top wall extends from the front side toward a central area of the top wall. The opening has a perimeter edge that is angled upwardly from the front side to the central area. A conduit is fluidly coupled to container and is in fluid communication with the receiving space. A cap is removably positioned on the conduit to close the conduit.
Liquid and solid porous-absorbent article
The present invention discloses a absorbent article configured for attachment to the interior of an child potty/bed pan or to be worn on an user. The absorbent article composes an absorbent core, first absorbent channel layer, intermediate channel layer and top permeable layer composes made up of permeable materials and further comprises an material capable of converting an liquid substance to an gel-like substance. Specifically, regions of the absorbent core first absorbent channel layer and intermediate channel layer may comprise an super absorbent polymer (SAP) material such as hydrogel, sodium polyacrylate, polyacrylate absorbents, or an biodegradable material such as an powder corn starch or wheat mixture or an combination of super absorbent polymer (SAP) and an biodegradable material.
ALL-IN-ONE SUSPENDABLE FABRIC URINAL HOLDER/COVER
The present invention is a bedside or chairside urinal holder/cover made entirely of durable washable fabric. Fabric pieces are sewn to conform to the shape of a urinal. Three sides of the holder/cover are tall enough to cover the urinal to the lid. The fourth side is shorter. Its semi-circular opening allows easy access to a portable urinal's handle. Permanently stitched to the top rim of the holder/cover is a closed-end loop, also made of durable washable fabric. The loop may be laid over the top of a bedrail or chair arm and the body of the holder/cover pulled through this loop to securely fasten it in place. The holder/cover cannot accidentally come unfastened, hides urinal contents, and gives an aesthetically pleasing appearance. It can be laundered and stored with other linens until it is put back into service. It takes little space and has a long lifespan.
Automated nursing system
An automated nursing system for handling waste material from a patient includes a mattress including an opening; a workhead for accepting the waste material, the opening of the mattress sized to accept the workhead; a main unit in water flow and pneumatic pressure communication with the workhead; and a main processor carried by the main unit, the main processor programmed to at least partially (i) cause negative pneumatic pressure to be applied to the workhead to remove the waste material from the workhead, and (ii) cause water to be delivered to the workhead to rinse the patient.
