Abstract
Description
Baignoire à couchette pour handicapés.Sleeping bath for the disabled.
La présente invention est relative aux baignoires, et plus particulièrement à celles à couchette. The present invention relates to baths, and more particularly to those with berths.
Les baignoires à couchette connues pour handicapés comportent des moyens destinés à faire passer la couchette ou le siège d'une position haute, au-dessus du niveau de débordement de la baignoire, à une position basse dans la cuve de la baignoire. Le handicapé prend place sur la couchette, alors qu'elle est en position haute, sans avoir à enjamber le bord de la baignoire. En actionnant les moyens destinés à faire passer la couchette en position basse, le handicapé est placé dans la baignoire. The known berth baths for the disabled include means for passing the berth or the seat from a high position, above the overflow level of the bathtub, to a low position in the tub of the bathtub. The disabled person takes place on the berth, while it is in the high position, without having to step over the edge of the bathtub. By actuating the means intended to move the berth to the low position, the disabled person is placed in the bathtub.
Les moyens destinés à déplacer la couchette s'étendent à côté et au-dessus de la cuve de la baignoire. The means for moving the berth extend next to and above the tub.
Ils sont encombrants. Ils apparaissent à la vue et donnent le sentiment, par exemple à celui qui n'est pas handicapé et qui souhaite utiliser la baignoire familiale, d'être en train de subir une opération sur un appareillage médical au lieu de prendre simplement un bain.They are bulky. They appear in view and give the feeling, for example to those who are not disabled and who wish to use the family bathtub, to be undergoing an operation on medical equipment instead of simply taking a bath.
L'invention pallie ces inconvénients par une baignoire à couchette dans laquelle l'utilisateur n'a pas l'impression ci-dessus mentionnée de se trouver en milieu hospitalier et dont l'encombrement est réduit. The invention overcomes these drawbacks by a sleeper bath in which the user does not have the above-mentioned impression of being in a hospital environment and whose size is reduced.
Suivant l'invention, la baignoire à couchette est caractérisée en ce que les moyens destinés à faire passer la couchette d'une position haute à une position basse dans la cuve de la baignoire attaquent le dossier de la couchette en un point de celui-ci se trouvant au-dessus du niveau de débordement de la baignoire, lorsque la couchette est en position basse, et lesdits moyens sont pratiquement entièrement en-dessous du point le plus élevé du dossier. According to the invention, the bunk bathtub is characterized in that the means intended to move the berth from a high position to a low position in the tub of the bathtub attack the backrest of the berth at a point thereof being above the overflow level of the bath, when the berth is in the low position, and said means are practically entirely below the highest point of the backrest.
En position basse, le dossier fait office d'appuietête, comme dans une baignoire classique et lesdits moyens, qui sont tous en-dessous du dossier, peuvent être dissimulés aisément derrière celui-ci et en-dessous de la baignoire, dans l'espace compris entre la cuve et l'habillage de la baignoire. Comme lesdits moyens attaquent le dossier de la couchette en un point de celui-ci se trouvant au-dessus du niveau de débordement de la baignoire, ils ne s'opposent pas à l'abaissement de la couchette dans la cuve. In the low position, the backrest acts as a headrest, as in a conventional bathtub and said means, which are all below the backrest, can be easily hidden behind it and below the bathtub, in the space between the tank and the bathtub surround. As said means attack the back of the berth at a point thereof located above the overflow level of the bathtub, they do not oppose the lowering of the berth in the tank.
Suivant un mode de réalisation préféré, le dossier comporte un dosseret recouvrant les moyens de déplacement. According to a preferred embodiment, the backrest includes a backrest covering the displacement means.
Pour permettre le nettoyage de la couchette, celleci est avantageusement montée à emboîtement par le haut dans les moyens de déplacement. Pour le nettoyage, il suffit de déboîter la couchette par le haut pour accéder à sa face inférieure. To allow cleaning of the berth, this is advantageously mounted to fit from above in the displacement means. For cleaning, simply unclip the bunk from the top to access its underside.
Suivant un mode de réalisation, les moyens destinés à faire passer la couchette d'une position haute à une position basse sont disposés sensiblement sur l'un des petits côtés de la baignoire. Il s'agit d'un côté qui, le plus souvent, est adossé à un mur, ce qui dissimule encore davantage toute la machinerie. According to one embodiment, the means intended to move the berth from a high position to a low position are arranged substantially on one of the short sides of the bathtub. It is a side that, most often, is backed by a wall, which further conceals all the machinery.
Les figures 1 et 2 du dessin annexé sont des vues en perspective de la baignoire en position haute et en position basse, le dosseret étant omis à la figure 1, et
La figure 3 est une vue en coupe de la cuve de la baignoire.FIGS. 1 and 2 of the appended drawing are perspective views of the bathtub in the high position and in the low position, the backsplash being omitted in FIG. 1, and
Figure 3 is a sectional view of the tub of the bathtub.
La baignoire représentée aux figures comporte une cuve 1 supportée par deux longerons 2 reliés par des tra verses 3. A l'une des extrémités des traverses s'élèvent deux glissières 4 dans lesquelles coulissent des coulisses 5. Les extrémités des coulisses 5 sont reliées à une traverse 6 commune attaquée par la tige 7 d'un vérin 8 commun alimenté par une centrale hydraulique 9 logée entre le côté latéral avant de la cuve et les extrémités des longerons 2. De cette traverse 6 partent deux barres, qui constituent avec elle le cadre d'un dossier 10 d'une couchette comportant un plateau 12 horizontal supporté par les prolongements 13 coudés des barres. En position basse, les coulisses 5 attaquent la traverse 6 du dossier 10 de la couchette en un point de celui-ci se trouvant au-dessus du niveau de débordement D de la baignoire.Elles font un angle de 20 à SOC environ avec les barres en formant avec celles-ci un V renversé. The bathtub shown in the figures comprises a tank 1 supported by two beams 2 connected by crosspieces 3. At one end of the crosspieces rise two slides 4 in which slide slides 5. The ends of the slides 5 are connected to a common crossmember 6 attacked by the rod 7 of a common jack 8 supplied by a hydraulic unit 9 housed between the front lateral side of the tank and the ends of the side members 2. From this crossmember 6 leave two bars, which constitute with it the frame of a backrest 10 of a berth comprising a horizontal plate 12 supported by the angled extensions 13 of the bars. In the low position, the slides 5 attack the cross-member 6 of the backrest 10 of the berth at a point thereof lying above the overflow level D of the bathtub. They make an angle of approximately 20 to SOC with the bars by forming with them an inverted V.
Les coulisses 5 peuvent être désemboîtées vers le haut des glissières 4 pour nettoyer le dessous de la couchette. Le dossier 10 comporte un prolongement vers le bas, formant un dosseret 11 amovible, pénétrant par des broches dans les coulisses 5 et les recouvrant et la tige 7 du vérin 8. L'ensemble des éléments décrits ci-dessus est inscrit dans le pourtour de la cuve de la baignoire. The slides 5 can be disengaged up the slides 4 to clean the underside of the berth. The backrest 10 has a downward extension, forming a removable backsplash 11, penetrating by pins in the slides 5 and covering them and the rod 7 of the jack 8. All of the elements described above are inscribed in the periphery of the tub.
Pour faire passer la couchette de la position haute à la position basse, on la tire vers le bas à l'aide de la tige 7 du vérin 8. En position basse, le dossier 10 fait office d'appuie-tête, comme dans une baignoire normale. To move the berth from the high position to the low position, it is pulled down using the rod 7 of the jack 8. In the low position, the backrest 10 acts as a headrest, as in a normal bathtub.
Les parois latérales de la cuve 1 comportent, près du fond, un épaulement 14 vers l'intérieur, dont la partie verticale a la même hauteur que l'épaisseur du plateau 12 de la baignoire et qui délimite une ouverture correspondant, au jeu près, exactement au contour extérieur du plateau 12. En position basse, le plateau 12 se fond avec cet épaulement 14 et n'apparaît plus comme une pièce distincte. The side walls of the tank 1 have, near the bottom, an inward shoulder 14, the vertical part of which has the same height as the thickness of the plate 12 of the bathtub and which delimits an opening corresponding, apart from play, exactly on the outer contour of the plate 12. In the low position, the plate 12 merges with this shoulder 14 and no longer appears as a separate part.
