Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for putting on a sock or a compression stocking.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a device for putting on a sock or a compression stocking which is as simple as possible and which does not present a significant bulk.
- This device must therefore be made in such a way that the sock or stocking slides without requiring external help as soon as the user's foot is inserted into the sock or bottom.
- the device according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises two elongated side pieces, rounded at their upper end, fixed on a base and placed adjacent to each other, so as to form a guide gutter, at the 'inside which the user's foot can slide up and down by driving a sock or a compression stocking previously placed upside down on the two side pieces.
- the device will advantageously be made from a thin bar and formed so as to represent two inverted U's, the two side pieces being arranged so that the gutter forms an angle of substantially 50 to 60 ° with the base.
- the entire device can be made from a bent bar, the ends of the two U-shaped parts being folded and made integral to form a support placed on the ground, whose configuration will be substantially wider than the gutter formed by the two U-shaped pieces.
- the two rear branches of the two U-shaped pieces forming the gutter can be arranged substantially parallel to 40 mm from each other, the front branches being placed substantially 120 mm from each other, the two branches of each U being placed at a distance of approximately 60 to 70 mm.
- the parts of the U-shaped bars furthest from each other may present, about 100 mm from the top of the U, a slight fold intended to hold the sock or the bottom when it is placed on the device.
- a caster can be placed at the rear top of the gutter between the two elongated side pieces. It is possible to provide two additional rollers, each being arranged on the rounded part of each side piece.
- a plate can maintain rigidity between the rear parts of the two U-shaped parts.
- this can be mounted on an axis integral with the two rear branches of the U interrupted in the middle, so as to allow a slight deformation of the gutter during the use and replacement of the caster.
- a rounded sheet can be provided to facilitate the sliding of the user's heel at the bottom of the gutter.
- the rounded sheet will be made integral with a single branch of one of the U-shaped parts and will simply be pressed on the adjacent branch of the other U-shaped part, so as to maintain the elasticity of the device.
- a stop can be placed substantially in the middle of each of the front branches of the U-shaped pieces, so as to retain the compression stocking when the user's foot is pushed down on the slide.
- Fixing lugs can be placed on either side of the base, so as to receive grip handles.
- the base may be fitted with non-slip feet intended to prevent the device from sliding on the ground.
- the device will advantageously have a height of substantially 300 mm and the handles will have a height of 500 to 600 mm.
- the drawing shows, by way of example, two embodiments as well as a variant of the device which is the subject of the invention.
- Fig. 1 represents a first embodiment of the device, particularly intended to help a user to put on a sock,
- fig. 2 is a second embodiment of the device more particularly intended for donning a compression stocking
- fig. 3 shows a section along line III-III of FIG. 2,
- fig. 4 shows a view of the upper part of the device of FIG. 2,
- fig. 5 shows a top view of a variant of the device of FIG. 2.
- the first embodiment of the device for putting on a sock or stocking shown in FIG. 1 is extremely simple and is particularly intended for putting on a sock. It comprises two lateral parts 2 and 3 formed of two inverted U's, having branches 4 and 5, respectively 6 and 7 and a rounded upper part 8, respectively 9.
- the branches 5 and 7 are substantially parallel and placed at an approximate distance of 40 mm from each other.
- they can be connected by means of a plate 10 welded to the branches 5 and 7.
- the presence of the plate 10 is not necessarily necessary and if we want the device to keep a certain elasticity, we will give up using it.
- the front parts of the device which consist of the branches 4 and 6 are also substantially parallel to one another and are at a distance of approximately 120 mm from each other. They have a slightly bent part 11, respectively 12, located at a distance of approximately 100 mm, relative to the top of the rounded parts 8 and 9. These slightly bent parts 10 and 11 make it possible to prevent the sock from sliding upwards when it is completely threaded on the branches 2 and 3 of the device.
- each U-shaped part 4 and 5, respectively 6 and 7 are bent so as to be spaced from one another by 60 to 70 mm.
- the two branches 5 and 7 form an angle of 50 to 60 ° with the horizontal and the device of FIG. 1 is produced, as shown in the drawing, in one piece using a bent steel bar with a diameter of 8 mm.
- the folded ends 13 and 14 of the branches 5 and 7 are welded to the bar 15 forming with the lateral arms 16 and 17 the base of the device.
- the embodiment of fig. 1 also has non-slip feet 18, 19, 20 and 21, in the form of rubber washers bonded to the parts 15, 16 and 17 constituting the base.
- the device which has just been described with reference to FIG. 1 has a height of approximately 300 mm.
- the device shown in fig. 1 is as mentioned above made from a steel bar of 8 mm in diameter and will advantageously be chromed after the two welds of the ends 13 and 14 as well as possibly the welds of the plate 10 have been made, this for facilitate the sliding of the sock on the device during its use.
- the use of the device which has just been described with reference to FIG. 1 is extremely simple and particularly effective.
- the device is placed on the floor and, if necessary, the user can either use a chair or lean on a table, for example. He will take a sock by its upper and unroll it on the two U-shaped pieces 2 and 3, until the tip of the sock is applied on the two rounded edges 8 and 9.
- the sock is upside down, the heel placed at the rear of the device, that is to say adjacent to the branches 5 and 7 and to the plate 10. The sock will therefore appear upside down and will be pleated, extended between the four branches 4,5, 6,7 respectively, of the side pieces 2 and 3.
- the existence of the slightly bent parts 11 and 12 will prevent the sock from rising under the tension exerted by the device.
- the user will then place the tip of his foot at the top of the device and lower his foot parallel to the branches 4,5, 6,7 respectively by exerting a downward push, pushing which will end in a rotation when the end of his foot will reach the ground.
- the sock will slide on the rounded ends 8 and 9 of the device and will be put in place without problem on the foot of the user.
- the angle formed by the two U-shaped parts, in particular the branches 5 and 7 with the horizontal of 50 to 60 °, will considerably facilitate the translational movement made by the user, which leaves its heel slide on branches 5 and 7 to complete its movement with a rotation when the tip of his foot reaches ground level. There are no problems using the device, and one or two tries are enough for anyone to understand how it works.
- the branches 5 and 7 are substantially parallel and similarly, placed at an approximate distance of 40 mm from each other.
- the branches 4 and 6 are also substantially parallel to each other and are located at a distance of 120 mm from one another. They have a slightly bent part 11, respectively 12, located at a distance of approximately 100 mm relative to the top of the rounded parts 8 and 9. As in the previous embodiment, these slightly bent parts 10 and 11 make it possible to prevent the compressive bottom to slide up when it is fully threaded on the branches 2 and 3 of the device.
- the two branches of each U-shaped part 4 and 5, respectively 6 and 7, are bent so as to be spaced from one another by 60 to 70 mm and the branches 5 and 7 form an angle of 50 to 60 ° with the horizontal.
- the device of FIGS. 2 and 3 is made in one piece using a bent steel bar with a diameter of 8 mm, the folded ends 13 and 14 of the arms 5 and 7 are welded to the bar 15 forming with the arms side 16 and 17 the base of the device.
- the device of fig. 2 and 3 also have non-slip feet 18,19,20 and 21.
- stops 22, respectively 23 which will serve as stops when the top of the compression stocking is deployed on the two branches 2 and 3.
- the stops 22 and 23 are produced here at using rubber washers glued to the branches 4 and 6. However, they can be made in another way, for example using metal stops not shown welded to the bars 4 and 6.
- a pin 24, on which is mounted a rubber roller 25 At the top of the branches 5 and 7 is fixed a pin 24, on which is mounted a rubber roller 25.
- the axis 24 and the wheel 25 are shown in the top view of FIG. 4, the wheel 25, being shown in section.
- the caster is made of a very soft rubber or elastomer, having a hardness of 30 to 60 Shore and is mounted on a bush 26, which can rotate on the axis 24.
- the axis 24 is interrupted and is in the form of two parts of the axis 24a and 24b, which can be separated from one another against the action spring from the two branches 2 and 3, to allow, if necessary, the replacement of the caster 25.
- roller 25 can alternatively be made of foam rubber and for example reinforced by an external coating forming an envelope not shown. Such variations can be useful for users with very sensitive feet and heels.
- a slightly rounded plate 27 has been added, extending along the branches 5 and 7, starting from the wheel and going almost to the ground.
- This plate 27 will be welded to one of the branches 5 or 7, and must not exceed the branches laterally, so as to avoid deterioration of the compression stockings. As mentioned above, it will only be welded to one of the branches 5 or 7, so as to leave the elasticity to the device and allow the caster to be changed by moving the two branches 2 and 3 apart.
- this plate 27 is not absolutely necessary for the proper functioning of the device. However, it has been added to allow the user's heel to slide, in the event that his foot is abnormally sensitive.
- fixing lugs 28 and 29 are provided, intended to receive rods 30 and 31, terminated by gripping handles 32 and 33.
- Rods 30 and 31 with their handles 32 and 33 will have a length of 500 to 600 mm and may have two functions. tions. One of the functions will be to support a person who is standing and using the device. The second function is to allow a lying user to use the device and therefore put on a compression stocking before getting up. He can then sit down, place the compression stocking on the device and pull it along his leg, after having previously introduced the tip of his foot into the compression stocking.
- the embodiment which has just been described will have a height of approximately 300 mm and will preferably be produced from a steel rod. It will then be chromed so as to allow the bottom to slide as efficiently as possible.
- the user will slide a compression stocking along the branches 2 and 3 of the device, until it comes into contact with the stops 22 and 23. It will continue to descend the bottom, forming an accordion on the branches of the device until the bottom end comes into contact with the rounded parts 8 and 9, the heel being placed on the side where the caster 25 is located.
- the device of FIGS. 2 and 3 can be used after being placed on the ground, the user standing or seated, or can be used using the handles when the user is in the supine position.
- bent stainless steel rods can be replaced with tubes.
- the two elongated side pieces, rounded at their upper end, in the form of two inverted U's, could be replaced by metal or plastic plates, rounded at their ends and stuck on a base, so as to present a guide gutter of the same dimension as that which has just been described with regard to the two embodiments of FIGS. 1 and 2.
- FIG. 5 there is shown a device similar to those of FIGS. 1 to 4, having, in addition to the wheel 26, two rollers 34 and 35 placed on the rounded parts 8 and 9.
- the rollers 34 and 35 may be of smaller diameter than the wheel 26.
