Abstract
An electric actuator system for hospital and care beds (1, 20) for adjusting e.g. the lying surface of the bed (1, 20). The actuator system is connected to one or more light sources (19, 23, 24), which may be switched on if a change in the patient's movement pattern and/or position in the bed (1, 20) is registered. The electric actuator system may thus help the patient navigate around the room.
Claims10
An electric actuator system for hospital and care beds (1, 20) comprising at least one linear actuator (9, 10, 13, 14, 21, 22) for adjusting the bed (1, 20), a control box (15) and at least one control unit (17, 18), where the linear actuator (9, 10, 13, 14, 21, 22) and the control unit are connected to the control box (15) and where the linear actuator (9, 10, 13, 14, 21, 22) comprises means for registering a force on the linear actuator (9, 10, 13, 14, 21, 22) and relative changes therein, and one or more light sources (19, 23, 24) which may be activated if one or more changes in the force on the linear actuator (9, 10, 13, 14, 21, 22) is registered.
