Abstract: A hand insertion door board is attached to the peripheral portion of each hand insertion window formed in an outside portion of a newborn infant container of an incubator. A holding portion is formed on one side portion of the hand insertion door board in the lateral direction. A bracket which pivotally supports a support shaft having a vertical axis is attached to the holding portion. A latch lever is pivotally supported by the support shaft of the bracket. A press lever which releases latching operation of the latch lever is pivotally attached by using the support shaft of the bracket. When the press lever is pressed against the biasing force of a compression coil spring, the press lever presses projecting pieces of the latch lever to make the latch lever pivot about the support shaft to the release position.

Abstract: In a vehicle battery unit, since a second support plate (30B) and a second end plate (29B) of a second battery module (22B) having a plurality of battery cells (21) stacked are placed on top of a first support plate (30A) and a first end plate (29A) of a first battery module (22A) having a plurality of the battery cells (21), it is possible to prevent the weight of the second battery module (22B) from being imposed on the battery cells (21) of the first battery module (22A). Moreover, since it is not necessary to provide on the exterior of the first battery module (22A) a member for supporting the weight of the second battery module (22B), it is possible to reduce the dimensions of the first battery module (22A).

Abstract: In an incubator according to the present invention, a single incubator can be used in any state of four types of devices and thus obviates the need for having many types of devices. A canopy is lowered and raised. In addition to that, a left and right treatment door and a foot end treatment door can be located at their highest positions, lowest positions, and intermediate positions. Also, an infrared heater can be lowered and raised independently of the canopy. This makes it possible to switch the incubator among: a state of an open type incubator; a state of a closed type incubator in which the infrared heater is at its highest position such that the infrared heater can heat the canopy and others; a state of a closed type incubator in which the infrared heater is at its lowest position and this incubator is easily conveyable; and a state of a resuscitation treatment device.

In the substrate set, a light source FPC substrate (11) has a notch (16), and an anode pad (13) and a cathode pad (14) that are disposed so as to sandwich the notch (16) therebetween, and a panel FPC substrate (21) has a plus terminal (23) and a minus terminal (24) that are disposed so as to be in contact with the anode pad (13) and the cathode pad (14), and an opening (26) that is sandwiched between the plus terminal (23) and the minus terminal (24).

Abstract: In an incubator according to the present invention, physical condition of a newborn is less likely to get out of order though a hand insertion window can easily be opened by operation with, for example, an elbow instead of a hand. A latch in a latch mechanism has a spiral face that extends to at least part of the periphery of a rotation shaft that extends along a side of a newborn chamber. A releasing member in the latch mechanism presses the spiral face of the latch by movement along the side of the newborn chamber and rotates the latch from a holding position to a releasing position for a hand insertion door. In addition, even if the latch in the latch mechanism rotates about the rotation shaft between the holding and releasing positions for the hand insertion door, the releasing member does not rotate.

Abstract: In an infant care apparatus according to this invention, heat rays are radiated from a heat radiation opening of a heater to a bed. The direction of the heat radiation opening can be changed from the first state in which the heat radiation opening substantially faces the bed to the second state in which the heat radiation opening does not substantially face the bed. According to the infant care apparatus of this invention, when the heater is not used, there is no possibility that the remaining heat of the heater is transferred to the infant laying on the bed. There is therefore no possibility that the infant will be unnecessarily overheated. There is no need to operate the heater and the like of the infant care apparatus in such a manner that the infant lying on the bed and surrounding people have feelings that rough operation is performed. This will keep the infant and the surrounding people free from adverse effects in terms of mental health.

Abstract: An incubator according to the present invention will be able to prevent accidents to the incubator itself or other devices, a doctor, a nurse or others causing external force even if the external force is applied to a canopy of a newborn chamber. An optical detector in a control mechanism detects application of external force to the canopy of the newborn chamber, and a signal output section in the control mechanism outputs a signal that renders a driving mechanism for lowering and raising the canopy non-operational when the application of external force is detected. Accordingly, even if external force is applied to the canopy by bump, contact, putting some object or others, the driving mechanism will not continue or start to lower or raise the canopy while the external force is applied to the canopy because the driving mechanism will be rendered non-operational.
