Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for applying and stripping socks, where the device includes two parallel rails, a roll up mechanism, and a sledge, which is slidably mounted on the parallel rails, where the sledge is provided with one or more brackets.
  • the use of the device is also related to.
  • Socks are used widespread in medical contexts for prevention of for example vein diseases and treatment of blood circulation related diseases.
  • the used types of socks include so called medical support stocking and compression stocking.
  • the socks are often used for people with reduced functionality including older people, handicapped and people, who have had surgical procedures. Since the users, as mentioned, often have reduced functionality, the use of the medical socks will require help from care personnel for applying and stripping the socks.
  • US 5069374 A (WILLIAMSON et al.) 03.12.1991 describes a device for stripping socks.
  • the device includes a roll up mechanism, which can roll up a belt, which in the other end can be fastened to a sock opening.
  • the roll up mechanism can be connected to two parallel rails.
  • NL 1014263 C2 describes another device for stripping socks, which comprises the features of the preamble of claim 1. It is therefore an object of the invention to describe a device, which can improve the possibilities of the individual sock users for being self-sufficient in the widest way possible and to improve the ergonomics for the care personnel, who are helping with applying and stripping medical support stockings, and which can be used for both stripping and applying socks.
  • the object of the invention is achieved by a device of the in the introduction to claim 1 stated type, which is characterized in that the device furthermore includes a belt and a detachable sock holder pipe, where the two parallel rails at one end are provided with a roll and at the opposite end are connected to the roll up mechanism, which is adapted to roll up the belt, and the one or more brackets are connected to the belt.
  • the device furthermore includes a belt and a detachable sock holder pipe, where the two parallel rails at one end are provided with a roll and at the opposite end are connected to the roll up mechanism, which is adapted to roll up the belt, and the one or more brackets are connected to the belt.
  • the device can strip socks. This is carried out by disassembling the sock holder pipe, pulling the belt around the roll, which is placed at the end of the rails, and fasten the belt to a sock. If the roll up mechanism is subsequently activated, the sock will automatically be pulled off the leg.
  • socks can be applied and stripped by many people with reduced functionality, who would otherwise require help from care personnel. It is further achieved that care personnel, who use the device become significantly less exposed to inappropriate ergonomic working conditions by assistance to people, who require help for applying and stripping socks.
  • the invention also relates to the use of the above device for applying and stripping medical support stockings and compression stockings.
  • a device (1) for applying and stripping socks (18) where the device (1) includes two parallel rails (2), which in one end are provided with a roll (4) and which in the opposite end is connected to a roll up mechanism (8), which can roll up a belt (11) and where the device (1) furthermore includes a sledge (6), which can slide on the parallel rails (2) where a sock holder pipe (7) can be mounted to the sledge (6) and where the sledge (6) is provided with one or more brackets (14) for connection to the belt (11).
  • the device (1) can, at the roll up mechanism (8) be connected to a bracket (12), which as shown in fig. 1 . can be mounted to the seat of a chair (13).
  • the device's (1) parallel rails (2) from a point (3) are angled in an ascending direction, which ends at the roll (4) and that the parallel rails (2) can be supported by an adjustable holder (15).
  • the device's rails (2) are manufactured in such a way that the length of the rails (2) can be adjusted.
  • the device's (1) roll up mechanism (8) is connected to a motor (10), which can be provided with energy from the grid or from a battery and which can be controlled via a contact (9) a or via a remote control.
  • the belt (11), which can be rolled out or rolled up from the roll up mechanism (8) from a point (19) is divided into two separate belts, which both end with a bracket (17), which can be fastened to the opening edge of a sock (18).
  • the rails (2) and the adjustable holder (15) fully or partially are manufactured by pipes including preferably light alloy pipe, and that the rolls (4,5) and the sledge (6) and the sock holder pipe (7) fully or partially are manufactured from polymeric materials.
  • the device (1) is in fig. 1 and fig. 2 configured for applying socks (18).
  • the sock (18) When a sock (18) is to be applied to a user's leg, the sock (18) is rolled up around the sock holder pipe (7) such that the opening of the sock (18) faces the roll up mechanism (8).
  • the person who is to have the sock (18) applied puts the foot into the sock opening in the sock holder pipe (7), which is fastened to the sledge (6), which can slide on the rails (2).
  • the sledge (6) is connected to the belt (11) with one or more, preferably two, brackets (14), which are placed on opposite sides of the sledge (6).
  • the roll up mechanism (8) can subsequently be activated via for example a contact (9) or a remote control, whereafter the belt (11) will be rolled up and thereby pull the sledge (6) and the connected sock holder pipe (7) up along the user's leg whereby the sock (18) is automatically applied to the leg.
  • the brackets (17) are fastened to each side of the sock's (18) opening edge, whereafter the roll up mechanism (8) is activated, for example via a contact (9) or a remote control whereafter the belt (11) automatically pulls the sock (18) off the user's leg.
  • the roll up mechanism (8) can with advantage be manufactured in such a way that a coupling is mounted between the motor (10) and the roll up mechanism (8), which disengages as soon as the roll up mechanism (8) is not activated.
  • the device (1) can, as shown in fig. 1 to fig. 4 , be used for people who are placed in a chair (13), but can also, for example by adjustment of the bracket (12) and the support (15), be used for bedbound users.
