    摘要: 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.

    摘要: A movable sanitary station for use with a hospital bed includes a cabinet with a front side, a back side, a right side, a left side, a bottom and a top. The back side of the cabinet has a concave shape forming a semi-cylindrical cavity having an axis extending laterally along the back side of the cabinet, permitting a mattress of the bed to protrude forward into the semi-cylindrical cavity. The top extends over the mattress of the bed to cover a gap between a foot of the mattress and the back side of the cabinet. The movable sanitary station also includes a set of wheels for supporting and moving the cabinet and a toilet seat integrated in a central portion of the top of the cabinet and surrounding a first aperture formed through the top of the cabinet.
