Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for facilitating the putting on of items of clothing such as coats, jackets or the like.
  • a holding device for items of clothing which is height-adjustable on a vertical guide by means of a connecting element, wherein a drive which can be actuated by the person pulling the item of clothing in each case can be actuated to change the height the holding device is provided on the vertical guide.
  • the device according to the invention completely provides the assistance otherwise usually provided by auxiliary persons when putting on coats, jackets or the like.
  • the device according to the invention helps the person getting dressed in the coat or jacket in the usual way. It is not necessary to get used to it.
  • the device according to the invention is simple and safe to use. It is therefore particularly suitable for the elderly and the disabled.
  • 1 denotes a vertical guide, which is formed here, for example, by two parallel U-shaped bars. From the vertical guide 1, a connecting element 2 is guided in the vertical direction, to which a holding device for the clothes to be put on, but not shown, is attached, which essentially consists of the half-hangers 3 and 4.
  • the half-brackets 3 and 4 are hinged to the connecting element 2 by means of hinges 5 and 6 and at the same height h at a distance d of about 24 cm from one another. the distance mentioned could also be smaller, e.g. B. 16 cm, or larger, e.g. B. 30 cm. It is determined by the shoulder width of the clothing.
  • the connecting element 2 could, for example, be formed in two parts, so that the two half-brackets 3 and 4 can be pulled apart by suitable adjusting elements, such as a gear meshing with two toothed racks, a toothed rack being connected to each part of the connecting element 2.
  • suitable adjusting elements such as a gear meshing with two toothed racks, a toothed rack being connected to each part of the connecting element 2.
  • the two half-bars 3 and 4 preferably have a length of 30 cm each. They are hinged to the connecting element 2 by means of the hinges 5 and 6 in such a way that they are aligned horizontally along a straight line in an end position referred to below as the first and in this position about 2/3 of their length over the hinges 5 and 6 outwards and accordingly with about 1/3 of their length over the hinges 5 and 6 inwards, d. H. protrude into the area between the hinges 5 and 6.
  • the two half-clips 3 and 4 are preferably either bent upward in the region of their outer ends in the first end position or, as shown in the figures, have a bead there on their upper side. This bead can, but does not have to, preferably with a material such as. B. rubber, which has a high coefficient of friction for garments. Otherwise, the surface of the half-bars 3 and 4 is smooth.
  • the specific design of the vertical guide 1 and the connecting element 2 is not of critical importance for the present invention. It is only important that the vertical guide 1 allows an adjustment of the height h of the connecting element 2 with the holding device attached to it between about 90 cm and 210 cm above the ground and that the connecting element 2 the articulation of the half-bracket 3 and 4 at the distance mentioned Allowed 10 to 30 cm from the vertical guide 1. In addition, the connecting element 2 must allow the half-bars 3 and 4 to be folded over, as explained below.
  • the connecting element 2 preferably has a fork-like shape.
  • the axial directions I and II of the two hinges 5 and 6 are inclined towards one another, specifically relative to the vertical guide 1 by approximately 45 °.
  • the axis directions I and II mentioned intersect accordingly above the holding device, approximately at a right angle.
  • the longitudinal direction of the two half-brackets 3 and 4 is in turn inclined by approximately 45 ° against the two axial directions I and II. From their already mentioned first end positions defined by corresponding first stops, the two half-brackets 3 and 4 can only be moved forward, ie. H. away from the vertical guide 1. Due to the alignment of the axial directions I and II of the hinges 5 and 6, they simultaneously move obliquely downwards.
  • a second end position, as can be seen in FIG. 2, is defined by second stops at an angle of rotation of approximately 90 ° in each case.
  • the two half-brackets 3 and 4 should preferably also be in a stable equilibrium under the action of gravity. This is achieved by slightly tilting the plane defined by the axial directions I and II of the two hinges 5 and 6 towards the rear against the vertical guide 1, as can also be seen from FIG. 2.
  • the tilt angle ⁇ should not be more than about 10 °.
  • the magnets 17 can be connected to a power source via corresponding lines and sliding contacts, not shown, between the connecting element 2 and the vertical guide 1. This contact is preferably designed so that it is canceled after a predetermined stroke of the connecting element 2, so that the half-hangers 3 and 4 are then free in their movement for the transfer of the garment.
  • a motor drive is provided, which is formed by an electric motor 10 and a rope 7 guided over two pulleys 8 and 9.
  • the lower pulley 9 is driven by the electric motor 10.
  • the electric motor 10 can be set in motion by means of a foot switch 11, which is preferably a button.
  • the foot switch 11 is arranged, for example, on a base plate 12 in such a way that it can be easily reached and actuated by the person putting the garment on while using the foot.
  • the foot switch 11 relates only to one embodiment of the invention.
  • a remote control can also be used here, for example, for the disabled.
  • two limit switches 13 and 14 are provided which limit the height adjustability of the holding device between a lower and an upper extreme position, for example 70 cm or 170 cm above the floor or the base plate 12.
  • the two limit switches 13 and 14 are preferably so trained and connected to the foot switch 11 and the electric motor 10 so that the direction of rotation of the electric motor 10 reverses when actuated by the stop of the connecting element 2 on them.
  • two switches 15 and 16 are provided on the connecting element 2 in the circuit mentioned, which can be operated by hand and are also easily accessible there and are designed as buttons. By actuating these switches, the holding device on the vertical guide 1 can be moved up or down.
  • These switches 15 and 16 are used to adjust the armhole height in accordance with a predetermined body size. For this purpose, for example, there may be a scale on the vertical guide 1.
  • the lower limit switch 14 can be designed to be manually adjustable, so that even a disabled person can easily adjust the height of the half-bars 3 and 4 according to his armhole height, which depends on the body size, without the help of another person.
  • a hydraulic or other suitable mechanical drive for the height adjustment of the holding device on the vertical guide 1 could alternatively be provided.
  • all drives must be operable by the person putting the garment on while putting it on.
  • the person who wants to put on the garment after being suspended from the holding device in the manner described, presents it in the same way as if it was held by an auxiliary person for the purpose of putting it on would.
  • the person who wants to put on the garment need only accordingly stand with his back against the device according to the invention, hold the arms stretched out somewhat and insert them into the armholes of the wide-open garment. With a suitable adjustment of the height of the holding device, the armholes are exactly at the correct height for this purpose. This height can be corrected if necessary, even after hanging the garment on the half-hangers 3 and 4, by operating the switches 15 and 16.
  • the actual tightening process is triggered by actuating the foot switch 11.
  • the foot switch 11 By actuating the foot switch 11, the garment to be pulled is pulled upwards by the holding device, as a result of which the arms of the person wearing the garment slide into the sleeves of the garment.
  • an overload protection is provided which, depending on the garment and after the train, causes the motor 10 to be reversed.
  • This overload protection is possible on the one hand via a corresponding device on the motor 10, in that it switches when a predetermined torque is exceeded.
  • the upper roller 8 is suspended, for example, from springs 19 indicated by dashed lines in FIG. 1. If an increased tension is exerted on the roller 8, for example if a piece of clothing gets caught on the connecting element 2 or the half-hangers 3 and 4, the roller 8 is pulled down and reaches an overload switch 20 there, via which the motor rotation is switched over.
  • This overload switch 20 is located, for example, on a small rack or threaded spindle and is adjustable depending on the weight of the garment. This can be done continuously or in predefined gradations (example: shirt, jacket, summer coat, winter coat).
  • an additional locking device for example in the manner of clips under spring pressure, can be provided, but such an additional locking device is normally not required.
  • the parts of the half-clips 3 and 4 projecting inward beyond the hinges 5 and 6 in the first end position fulfill the following function: They serve to enable the person putting on the garment to trigger the folding of the two half-hangers 3 and 4 from the first end position into the second end position at an earlier point in time than would be the case automatically.
