Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bow-shaped holding and support handle according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such handles are used, for example, to hold on for disabled and frail people in hospitals, old people's homes, e.g. mounted in sanitary rooms next to toilets and on bathtubs. The person can hold on to the handle, especially on wet ground.
  • Such handles are not provided on hand basins, so that the person in question must hold on to the basin and pull it up.
  • the person must hold on to the hand wash basin, a fitting or a console, which is often designed as a mirror shelf for toiletries.
  • the pool is often wet and slippery, so that the person does not have sufficient grip on it.
  • the fitting or the mirror shelf are not intended and not suitable for holding and / or pulling up. This often leads to accidents, injuries and damage.
  • the invention has for its object to provide such a handle for disabled, frail people, which they can hold onto and support in the area of the hand wash basin.
  • the handle can be arranged above the hand wash basin, at the same time serving as a shelf or mirror console.
  • the person therefore has a secure footing; the handle also helps her to get up when she has been washed in a sitting position and then has to get up again. Since the handle also serves as a support for the console, no additional parts need to be provided and assembled.
  • a secure hold and storage in the area of the hand wash basin can be created in a simple and inexpensive manner, so that accidents, injuries and damage can be reliably avoided.
  • a holding and support handle 4 is fastened to a wall 2 and in front of a mirror 3 above the hand wash basin 1. He carries a console 5, which is perpendicular to him at a short distance in front of the mirror 3.
  • the handle 4 has a U-shape and is made of pipe or rod material. With its legs 6, 7 it is perpendicular to the wall 2, to which it is preferably screwed (Fig. 3, 4).
  • the cross piece 8 extending between the legs 6, 7 forms the grip part, to which the person can hold on if necessary.
  • the corner areas 9, 10 of the handle 4 are curved in the shape of a part circle, so that the person cannot injure himself on the handle when he slips off the handle with his hand.
  • the handle 4 preferably has a round cross section.
  • the console 5 is designed as an elongated rectangular plate, the edges 11, 12 of which are bent in a U-shape. These ends or edges 11, 12 partially encompass the legs 6, 7 at the top and lie in the area above the storage surface of the console 5.
  • the U-shaped ends 11, 12 secure the console 5 against displacement in the longitudinal direction.
  • the plate edges 11, 12 encompass the legs 6, 7.
  • the width of the bracket 5 is preferably substantially smaller than the clear distance of the handle bar 8 from the mirror 3.
  • the width of the bracket 5 is advantageously only half as long as the length of the legs 6, 7. This allows the handle bar 8 to be comfortably gripped by hand will.
  • the distance that the console 5 has from the wall 2 or the mirror 3 is small, while the distance X of the console from the handle 8 or 8a is several times larger. This allows the person to reach comfortably through the gap X.
  • FIGS. 2 to 4 differs from the embodiment according to FIG. 1 essentially in that the plate-shaped console 5a with its narrow sides 11a on the sides facing one another the leg 6a, 7a is welded.
  • the console 5a has a small distance Y from the wall 2 and a multiple times greater distance X from the crosspiece 8a of the handle 4a.
  • the console is also a short distance from the mirror 3a.
  • the handles 4 and 4a can be fastened to the wall 2 in any suitable form with screws or dowels 14.
  • a short fastening piece 14 ′ is advantageously fastened to the wall 2 with the screw 14, which axially penetrates the fastening piece 14 ′ and rests with its head on an end closure of the fastening piece. It has a circumferential annular groove in the lateral surface, which is formed by conical surfaces inclined in opposite directions.
  • the respective handle leg 6a, 7a which is tubular, is pushed onto the preassembled fastening piece 14 '.
  • Each handle leg 6a, 7a has a threaded bore for a grub screw which engages with a conical end in the annular groove of the fastening piece. When the grub screw is screwed in, the respective handle leg 6a, 7a is firmly connected to the respective fastening piece.
  • a support tab or strut 15, 16 is provided on each of the two legs 6a, 7a and bears against the wall 2 with a vertical edge 17. As a result, the handle 4a is securely supported on the wall 2 in its horizontal position.
