Abstract

The bath support consists of a base (1) with uprights and an inverted U-shaped hollow frame (6) which can be raised or lowered relative to the base by a central hydraulic power cylinder (5). The frame has two bars (8,8') projecting horizontally from it, and two arms (13,13') which are situated on top of the bars and can be moved by hydraulic cylinders (11). During operation the two arms are fitted beneath the lateral edges of the bath, which can then be raised and lowered using the central hydraulic cylinder.

Description Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de support destiné à recevoir une baignoire. Dans les milieux hospitaliers on est souvent confronté à un problème de place dans les salles d'eau qui doivent être équipées de baignoires spéciales pour les handicapés ou les personnes nécessitant une assistance au moment de leur toilette. De telles baignoires doivent pouvoir être déplacées verticalement de sorte qu'elles se trouvent d'abord dans une position basse afin de faciliter l'entrée dans cette dernière par l'utilisateur, puis dans une position surélevée afin que le personnel traitant soit dans une position confortable pour assister la personne en train de se baigner. The present invention relates to a support device for receiving a bathtub. In hospitals, there is often a problem of space in the bathrooms, which must be fitted with special baths for the disabled or those requiring assistance when washing. Such baths must be able to be moved vertically so that they are first in a low position to facilitate entry into the latter by the user, then in a raised position so that the treating staff is in a position comfortable to assist the person bathing.

De tels dispositifs existent et sont décrits par exemple dans la demande de brevet européenne 0 382 372 qui divulgue une baignoire montée sur un mécanisme élévateur permettant à cette dernière de se déplacer, grâce à des vérins hydrauliques, dans le sens vertical d'une position basse vers une position haute. Ces dispositifs sont fixes et ont l'inconvénient d'occuper une place importante dans la salle de bain. Such devices exist and are described, for example, in European patent application 0 382 372 which discloses a bathtub mounted on a lifting mechanism allowing the latter to move, by means of hydraulic jacks, in the vertical direction from a low position. towards a high position. These devices are fixed and have the disadvantage of occupying an important place in the bathroom.

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de support d'une baignoire permettant à la fois des déplacements dans le sens vertical de la baignoire mais également un pivotement de la baignoire afin de réduire l'encombrement de l'installation de bain lorsqu'elle n'est pas utilisée. The subject of the present invention is a device for supporting a bath allowing both movements in the vertical direction of the bath but also pivoting of the bath in order to reduce the size of the bath installation when it is not used.

Le dispositif de support d'une baignoire objet de la présente invention se distingue par les caractéristiques énumérées à la revendication 1. Le dessin annexé illustre schématiquement et à titre d'exemple une forme d'exécution du dispositif de support d'une baignoire selon la présente invention. The support device for a bathtub object of the present invention is distinguished by the characteristics listed in claim 1. The accompanying drawing illustrates schematically and by way of example an embodiment of the support device for a bathtub according to the present invention.

La fig. 1 est une vue en perspective du dispositif de support d'une baignoire selon la présente invention. Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the device for supporting a bathtub according to the present invention.

La fig. 2 est une vue de côté du dispositif illustrant les positions basses respectivement hautes de la baignoire. Fig. 2 is a side view of the device illustrating the respectively high, low positions of the bath.

La fig. 3 est une vue de côté du dispositif en position de rangement. Fig. 3 is a side view of the device in the storage position.

La fig. 1 illustre le dispositif de support d'une baignoire qui comporte une pièce de base 1 sur laquelle sont fixés deux montants 2. Ces montants 2 sont reliés par une barre de fixation 3 qui permet d'ancrer le dispositif contre un mur par exemple ou tout autre support adéquat. La base 1 comporte encore un moteur électrique 4 entraînant un vérin hydraulique central 5. Un cadre creux en forme de U renversé 6 est agencé coulissant sur les montants 2. Ce cadre 6 comporte également une pièce centrale 7 reliant les deux branches du U. Cette pièce centrale est fixée à la partie mâle du vérin central 5. Le cadre 6 comporte encore le dispositif de support de la baignoire formé de deux barres 8, 8' perpendiculaires au plan formé par le cadre, et solidaires respectivement des branches du U formant le cadre 6. Les faces arrières des branches du cadre 6 sont chacune munies d'une fente 9, 9' afin que le cadre puisse se déplacer verticalement. La base de chaque branche du cadre 6 comporte encore un support de fixation 10, 10' relié à la partie femelle d'un vérin hydraulique 11, 11'. La partie mâle de ces vérins 11, 11' est connectée à une pièce intermédiaire triangulaire 12, 12' elle même reliée à deux bras de support 13, 13' qui sont parallèles aux deux barres 8, 8'. Ces deux bras de support 13, 13' sont reliés par un axe 14. Ceci permet de mettre en place sur ces bras de support 13, 13' une baignoire de dimensions standards. La baignoire est ensuite solidarisée des bras de support par tout moyen connu. Le fonctionnement du dispositif est le suivant. La fig. 2 illustre la baignoire en position basse respectivement haute. En actionnant le vérin central 5, on provoque un déplacement vertical du cadre 6 ainsi que du support de la baignoire d'une position basse dans laquelle il est aisé de prendre place dans la baignoire (illustrée en pointillé), vers une position haute qui permet au personnel soignant de travailler dans une position confortable. Fig. 1 illustrates the device for supporting a bathtub which comprises a basic part 1 on which two uprights are fixed 2. These uprights 2 are connected by a fixing bar 3 which makes it possible to anchor the device against a wall for example or any other suitable support. The base 1 also comprises an electric motor 4 driving a central hydraulic cylinder 5. A hollow frame in the shape of an inverted U 6 is arranged sliding on the uprights 2. This frame 6 also includes a central part 7 connecting the two branches of the U. This central part is fixed to the male part of the central jack 5. The frame 6 also includes the device for supporting the bathtub formed by two bars 8, 8 ′ perpendicular to the plane formed by the frame, and respectively secured to the branches of the U forming the frame 6. The rear faces of the branches of frame 6 are each provided with a slot 9, 9 ′ so that the frame can move vertically. The base of each branch of the frame 6 also includes a fixing support 10, 10 'connected to the female part of a hydraulic cylinder 11, 11'. The male part of these jacks 11, 11 'is connected to a triangular intermediate piece 12, 12' which is itself connected to two support arms 13, 13 'which are parallel to the two bars 8, 8'. These two support arms 13, 13 ′ are connected by an axis 14. This makes it possible to install on these support arms 13, 13 ′ a bathtub of standard dimensions. The bathtub is then secured to the support arms by any known means. The operation of the device is as follows. Fig. 2 illustrates the bathtub in the low, respectively high position. By actuating the central cylinder 5, it causes a vertical displacement of the frame 6 and the support of the bathtub from a low position in which it is easy to take place in the bathtub (illustrated in dotted lines), towards a high position which allows nursing staff to work in a comfortable position.

La fig. 3 illustre la baignoire dans la position de rangement, en actionnant les vérins 11, 11' on provoque une rotation des bras de support 13, 13' autour d'un point coïncidant avec l'axe 14 reliant les deux bras de support. Dans cette position de rangement, l'encombrement au sol est sensiblement réduit. Pour l'alimentation et l'écoulement de l'eau, on utilise des tuyaux flexibles d'une longueur adéquate (non illustrés). Fig. 3 illustrates the bathtub in the storage position, by actuating the jacks 11, 11 ', the support arms 13, 13' are rotated around a point coinciding with the axis 14 connecting the two support arms. In this storage position, the floor space is significantly reduced. For supplying and draining water, flexible hoses of adequate length are used (not shown).
