We have developed a new rotating bed for the old and the paralised people. This rotating bed is composed of two bed heads at front and at end, bed boards, guardrails, an electric motor, a reducer, an induction locator and a set of electronic controls. With the preestablished program, the angle between the left/right bed board and the middle board is changed by rotating the left/right board around the rotation axis, and the gravity direction between the human body and the ground is changed by the rotation of the middle board as a whole, so that the middle bed board and the left and right ones will act respectively as supporters of weight of the person who is lying on his back or on his side. In this way, a person can turn over automatically, comfortably and naturally when he/she is asleep. This rotating bed meets the physiological needs of a sleeping person, and people with turning over problems can turn over in a comfortable and natural way by means of biotechnology. It can also improve the quality of sleep and help avoid decubitus. In addition, it can be used to promote the rehabilitation of those who are paralysed by reason of its passive exercising function.
我们为老年人和瘫痪者研发了一种新型旋转床。这种旋转床由前端和末端的两个床头、床板、护栏、一台电动机、一个减速器、一个感应定位器和一套电子控制系统组成。按照预设程序，左右床板绕旋转轴转动，改变左右床板与中间床板之间的角度，中间床板整体旋转改变人体与地面之间的重力方向，使得中间床板和左右床板分别在人仰卧或侧卧时起到支撑人体重量的作用。这样，人在睡眠时就能自动、舒适且自然地翻身。这种旋转床满足了睡眠者的生理需求，有翻身困难问题的人借助生物技术能以舒适自然的方式翻身。它还能提高睡眠质量，有助于避免褥疮。此外，因其具有被动锻炼功能，可用于促进瘫痪者的康复。
