Patient turning device for a patient support apparatus
A patient turning device for a patient support apparatus. The patient turning device includes a first and second bladder assembly each including a plurality of layers and seals defining a bladder volume. The bladder volumes are selectively inflatable with fluid to expand the respective bladder assembly, and consequently move a patient support surface of the patient support apparatus. A portion of a lower layer of the first bladder assembly and a portion of an upper layer of the second bladder assembly define an overlapping region of the bladder volumes. The patient turning device is coupled to an underside of a carrier sheet and positioned between a crib assembly and a bottom cover. An augmenting feature is configured to resiliently expand as at least one of the first and second bladder assemblies receives the fluid to move at least a portion of the crib assembly away from a patient support deck.
Adjustable support device
The present disclosure relates to assisting patients with treatment and recovery to remain in an upright position. More specifically, the present disclosure is a device that may be used to support patients in an upright position that may be used with any surface. Further, the device may allow the users to vary the angle of support and may be controlled through a simple interface, such as a button, remote control, or controls on an electronic interface device.
Structures for causing movement of elements of a bed
The present disclosure is related to a bed assembly. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to a bed assembly that is compatible with a traditional consumer bed and can enhance the traditional consumer bed so it provides features of a traditional hospital bed. The bed assembly of the present disclosure may include pneumatic components to move portions of the bed assembly.
Adjustable bed with load distribution bracket
A bracket is provided for an adjustable bed base that distributes the load of an actuator across a moveable panel of the adjustable bed. The bracket is coupled to a moveable panel of the adjustable bed, and has a width that is greater than one-third the width of the moveable panel.

Mattress
A mattress 100 includes a movable part 1 and a mattress body 2 including a first mattress part 21 disposed above the movable part 1, and a second mattress part 22 provided separately from the first mattress part 21 and disposed to surround the first mattress part in a plan view. The first mattress part 21 is configured to rotate upward about the predetermined rotation axis by the movable part 1.
Three-dimensional wave generating device and multifunctional motion bed having the same
Provided is a three-dimensional wave generating device and a multifunctional motion bed having the same. A safety device prevents a driven pulley and/or a driven pulley to which an eccentric shaft is coupled from being separated from a coupling shaft. Therefore, operation stability is secured while noise caused by separation or unstable coupling of the driven pulley and/or eccentric shaft in a three-dimensional wave generating device is prevented from occurring, and when a functional motion bed to which the three-dimensional wave generating device is applied is provided, the user can feel a three-dimensional wave more effectively in bed.
Mattress support for adding hospital bed functionality to an in-home bed
A mattress support includes a base plate configured to be positioned on a box spring of a bed. A bladder may be coupled to a top surface of the base plate. A top plate is coupled to a top surface of the bladder. A top surface of the top plate is configured to support a mattress. The bladder is inflatable to adjust a height of the top plate.
Pillow lifting system
An apparatus for used to lift the torso of a human from a supine position to a sitting position. This is a lightweight apparatus which can be easily carried and placed on a bed or other flat surface. It is placed under the torso of the subject and includes a base, back rest and actuator. The back rest is pivotally coupled to the base and the actuator is used to rotate the back rest from a flat lying position to a vertical sitting position.
