The medical anti-collision handrail is composed of a PVC panel, an aluminum alloy bottom lining and a base. It has antibacterial, fireproof, wear-resistant, wall protection and anti-skid effects. It is used in public places such as hospitals, nursing homes, etc. It can help the sick, disabled and infirm to support walking, and can also play a role in protecting the wall.照片3 005(1)

The advantages of the medical anti-collision handrail compared to the wooden handrail: the medical anti-collision handrail profile is extruded by a plastic extruder, and the appearance is bright, bright, smooth, and not painted. In terms of physical and mechanical properties, medical anti-collision handrail profiles have excellent rigidity, hardness, electrical properties, cold and heat resistance, aging resistance, stability and flame retardancy.

The medical anti-collision handrail retains the high-quality characteristics of PVC material in terms of anti-corrosion, moisture-proof, mildew-proof and insect-proof. By changing the cross-sectional shape, various profiles with complex shapes can be produced to solve the problem of material consumption in the production of wooden furniture.

Medical anti-collision handrails are mainly used for engineering installations, and are also widely used in indoor layouts in public places, as well as in computer rooms, laboratories and other places. So, what are the standards for good medical anti-collision handrails? Here’s a brief introduction:

First, the quality of the anti-collision armrest can be identified from the inside out. Intrinsic quality mainly tests its surface hardness and the firmness of the bond between the substrate and the surface finish. Good quality products have high hardness, impact resistance and wear resistance. The surface scratched with a knife is not obvious, and the surface layer is not separated from the substrate. The appearance quality mainly tests its simulation degree. Good quality products have clear patterns, uniform processing specifications, easy splicing, and good decorative effects.

 

Second, medical handrails with good quality are basically made of engineering plastics or synthetic plastics with antibacterial functions. The disabled can easily see the position of the handrail, and it can also play a certain decorative role.

Third, the appearance of the medical anti-collision handrail is made of raw material particles, the thickness of the panel is ≥2mm, there is no connecting gap, and there should be no rough plastic burrs, otherwise it will affect the feel when grasping.
Fourth, the inner lining is made of high-quality aluminum alloy with a thickness of more than 2mm, which will not bend and deform when a person weighing 75kg is pressed vertically.

Fifth, the radian of the elbow of the handrail should be suitable. Generally, the distance between the handrail and the wall should be between 5cm and 6cm. It should not be too wide or too narrow. If it is too narrow, the hand will touch the wall. If it is too wide, the elderly and the disabled may be separated. Accidentally did not hold the stuck arm.
