Abstract

A multifunctional handle for a blood treatment machine for moving the blood treatment machine by hand and also for the coiling of cables, with a placement segment and a slip prevention segment which protrudes from a first end of the first flat section at an angle from the first flat section and which is designed ergonomically to be grasped by a hand.

Claims (29)

1. A hemodialysis machine comprising:

a mobile blood treatment machine; and

a handle comprising:

a cable holder segment connected to the mobile blood treatment machine, the cable holder segment configured to support at least one of a cable or a tube,

an ergonomically shaped grip segment positioned or configured at at least one end portion of the cable holder segment, and

electrical and other interfaces integrated in an integrated media strip.

2. The hemodialysis machine of claim 1 , wherein the cable holder segment is bracket-like.

3. The hemodialysis machine of claim 1 , wherein the cable holder segment is groove-like.

4. The hemodialysis machine of claim 1 , further comprising a slip prevention segment positioned between the cable holder segment and the ergonomically shaped grip segment, the slip prevention segment arched towards the mobile blood treatment machine such that when the at least one supported cable or tube is placed on the cable holder segment, the at least one supported cable or tube is prevented from slipping off.

5. The hemodialysis machine of claim 1 , wherein the grip segment is shaped in the manner of a handrail or bar that extends longitudinally in a cable holding direction defined by the cable holder segment.

6. The hemodialysis machine of claim 5 , wherein the grip segment is positioned at an end of the cable holder segment transverse to the cable holding direction.

7. The hemodialysis machine of claim 5 , wherein the grip segment is positioned at an end of the cable holder segment longitudinal to the cable holding direction.

8. The hemodialysis machine of claim 1 , wherein the cable holder segment is connected or configured to be connected to the mobile blood treatment machine at a connection end opposite the grip segment.

9. The hemodialysis machine of claim 8 , wherein the cable holder segment is connected or connectable to the mobile blood treatment machine by a connector or mounting adaptor.

10. The hemodialysis machine of claim 1 , wherein the cable holder segment serves as a spacer between the grip segment and the blood treatment machine.

11. The hemodialysis machine of claim 1 , wherein the grip segment protrudes over the cable holder segment at at least one end.

12. The hemodialysis machine of claim 11 , wherein the grip segment is handrail-like and protrudes over the cable holder segment at both its longitudinal ends in a cable holding direction.

13. The hemodialysis machine of claim 11 , wherein the grip segment is bar-like and protrudes over the cable holder segment at both its longitudinal ends in a cable holding direction.

14. The hemodialysis machine of claim 1 , wherein the cable holder segment is arched in a cup-like manner in a cable holding direction to prevent bending of the at least one supported cable or tube.

15. The hemodialysis machine of claim 1 , wherein the cable holder segment is configured as a flat component or a panel-like component.

16. The hemodialysis machine of claim 1 , further comprising a connector or mounting adaptor, wherein the handle is made of a single piece of metal or plastic.

17. The hemodialysis machine of claim 1 , wherein the electrical and other interfaces are screened from splash water coming from at least one direction.

18. A hemodialysis machine comprising:

a mobile blood treatment machine; and

a handle comprising:

a cable holder segment connected to the mobile blood treatment machine, the cable holder segment configured to support at least one of a cable or a tube, wherein the cable holder segment provides a hollow space for screening a functional member with a ventilation nonwoven-sheet; and

an ergonomically shaped grip segment positioned or configured at at least one end portion of the cable holder segment.

19. The hemodialysis machine of claim 17 , wherein the handle is mounted at the mobile blood treatment machine such that the handle screens the electrical and other interfaces from splash water coming from a top of the blood treatment machine.

20. The hemodialysis machine blood of claim 18 , wherein the handle is mounted to the mobile blood treatment machine such that the handle forms a defined access to the hollow space that is screened at the sides and makes undesired touching of the functional member difficult.
