Definitions
- the present invention relates to a bath tub lifter for lifting and lowering people, for example from and into a bath tub with a base plate and a seat element which can be moved relative to the base plate.
- Bath tub lifters of this type are known and used on the market in a variety of forms and designs. They essentially serve as bathing aids for the elderly and especially disabled people. Conventional bath tub lifters are positioned and adjusted in bath tubs.
- a seating element is extended approximately at the edge of a bathtub. Then the Sit the user on this seat, for example, from a wheelchair or such a seat aid. The bath water can already be embedded in the bath. The seat element is then sunk against the base plate by means of a drive device, the user thereby being immersed in the bathing water.
- the seat element can then be moved upward again with respect to the base plate and the user can be moved to an exit position over the edge of the bathtub.
- a disadvantage of the conventional bathtub lifters available on the market is that they are often damaged in operation by the user being too heavy, and are difficult and expensive to dismantle if they are no longer used. In addition, these are expensive to buy and are difficult to trade. Furthermore, these are not always stable.
- the present invention has for its object to provide a bathtub lifter of the type mentioned, which eliminates the disadvantages mentioned and with which the handling of such a bathtub lifter in operation and also for transport is to be considerably simplified and improved. In addition, long-term operation of the bath tub lifter with high security and stability should also be guaranteed.
- the seat element can be moved linearly relative to a base support and this can be pivoted relative to the base plate.
- the seat element can be moved linearly with respect to a base support, the base support being mounted so as to be pivotable relative to the base panel, in particular via a base plate.
- This pivoting of the base plate relative to a sliding carriage mounted movably in the base plate and the pivoting of the base carrier relative to the base plate ensures that at the same time an inclination of the backrest is ensured when the seat element is lowered.
- the seat element can be moved linearly along the base support by means of a carriage which is driven by a drive device.
- This drive device is not only articulated to the slide, but also to the base plate.
- a seat plate is pivotally mounted relative to a backrest.
- the base support with the slide and also with the drive device can be inclined backwards by a definable angle, the seat base being decoupled from this movement. This remains approximately parallel to the base plate.
- the seat element can thus be moved into the bathtub against the base plate and then the backrest of the seat element and the base support itself, which moves the seat element up and down, can be pivoted backwards.
- the drive device is also tilted backwards. If the bathtub lifter is no longer used, the base carrier is moved back to its original starting position, then the seat element is raised slightly and the seat plate is pivoted against the backrest.
- the base plate fixed in the base plate which is articulated in relation to the sliding carriage, is moved out of an end locking groove of the base plate by shifting, then pivoted about a joint between the base plate and sliding carriage, preferably by about 90 °, until the base carrier is approximately parallel to Base plate lies. Then the seat plate and backrest between the base frame and base plate are folded together. The basic carrier with the subsequent base plate can then be moved back over the sliding carriage against an end face of the base plate in order to maintain its overall very short transport length.
- these unique possibilities of movement of the base carrier which on the one hand can be tilted backwards, on the other hand carries the slide for the seat element and on the other hand can be folded relative to the base plate to achieve a transport position, characterize the present invention.
- the drive device can be tilted backwards in accordance with the base support and can also be folded down relative to the base plate.
- a bath tub lifter in which in particular a tilting movement of the base support relative to the base plate, in particular a base plate by means of latches and Rocker arm secures while the seat element can be moved along the base support. Only when the seat element is in a lowered position is the seat plate placed on the base plate, in which position the slide, in particular rollers of the slide, are secured by means of the rocker arm. The slide is thus secured against linear movement along the base support. A corresponding rocker arm releases a bolt in this position, which allows the base support to move relative to the base plate to tilt. During the tipping and in the tipped state, the slide, in particular the seat element, remains secured against linear movement along the base support.
- the base support and base plate are formed in two parts, with a base plate adjoining the base support at the end, which engages in a corresponding recess in the base plate by means of a latching lug and, on the other hand, can be detached from the base plate using any locking device, in particular by means of a bolt lock is set.
- the bathtub lifter can be quickly and easily disassembled into two parts, which is particularly advantageous during transport, so that the individual parts are easier to transport.
