Definitions
- This present invention refers to a health service stretcher, more specifically a stretcher used in ambulances and by the emergency services for the transportation of sick people to hospitals and similar places.
- the invention is applicable to the health hardware industry, more specifically in the sector for light stretcher transport.
- the emergency medical services and ambulances are equipped with light construction stretchers, which allow for the movement of sick and injured people in a safe manner.
- a stretcher is made up from an appreciably flat frame and generally has some feet or a foldable base with wheels on the lower part which allows the stretcher to be wheeled.
- the folding down of the base means a reduction in the total height of the stretcher so as to make its introduction and transport in ambulances easier.
- the health service stretcher object of this invention, has some technical peculiarities aimed at making its visibility easier in places where there is poor lighting and low visibility, or in those in which the care being provided is affected by events such as the nerves of the people involved in accidents or unforeseen situations, where said stretcher is needed, achieving an improvement in the safety of the sick or injured person, and for those surrounding the patient.
- the health service stretcher is of the type that has a frame, with a shape that is more or less rectangular, is appreciably flat, for the placement of the sick or injured person in a lying down position.
- the stretcher has some light emitting elements distributed around the periphery of said frame, these light emitting elements being connected to at least one independent supply of electrical energy with some means of switching them on, marking the position of the stretcher.
- the stretcher becomes clearly visible and stands out at night or in dark or poorly lit environments from a significant distance.
- This advantage for example can be seen in the case of a traffic accident, the stretcher is easily visible to the drivers of other vehicles who are approaching, such as in the case of the collecting of the sick or injured person, during the movement to the ambulance, improving the safety of the occupant.
- the independent electrical supply is made up of a battery and an on/off switch, and thus making sure that the stretcher does not lose freedom of movement and for the light emitting elements to work only when their use is necessary.
- the independent electrical supply has an operating control unit for the light emitting elements to be flashing, for example by means of an intermittent unit.
- This control unit provides the light emitting elements with an action so that they are even more visible and the people can pay greater attention to the position of the stretcher.
- the independent electrical supply is housed in the lower part of the frame, being away from the part where the patient is housed and out of reach, preventing possible accidents.
- the light emitting elements are placed at the ends of the frame, and in so doing achieve better visibility in situations in which a person approaching the stretcher in a passage or something similar will still see the stretcher from either of the two ends. It is even envisaged that these light emitting elements can be different colours, such as white at the front end and red at the rear end, showing the orientation of the stretcher and its possible direction of movement when it is handled by nurses who are moving the patient.
- the light emitting elements are placed on the longitudinal sides of the frame allow it to achieve the improvement in the signalling and location of the stretcher from the sides.
- the light emitting elements could be yellow, for example.
- the stretcher has a frame (1) that is more or less rectangular in a top view and which is essentially flat for the placement of the sick or injured person who is either sat or lying down on said frame.
- Light emitting elements (4a) are placed at the front and rear ends of the frame (1), made in a distinctive colour so as to identify said ends and the possible movement that the stretcher is making.
- Other light emitting elements (4b) are placed along the longer sides of the frame (1) to facilitate its lateral visibility.
- the independent electrical supply (5) is housed under the frame (1), being made up of a rechargeable battery (6), an on/off switch (7) and a control unit (8) for the flashing action of the light emitting elements (4a, 4b).
