JP2001238931A - Bathing bed - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bathing bed for preventing loads on a body by a water pressure at the time of bathing and preventing accidents due to the depth of water. SOLUTION: By vertically moving the height of the legs of this bed, the water pressure of a bather is adjusted, lying position bathing is made possible and also water accidents due to the depth of the water are prevented.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a head 2 fixed to the rim 4 of a bathtub.
The present invention relates to a bath cradle that adjusts the bather's water depth by moving the height of legs 3 attached to the cradle up and down with the fulcrum as a fulcrum.

Conventionally, a Japanese bathtub has a deeper water depth than a Western bathtub, and has a structure in which a body is immersed in a bathtub to take a bath. Recently, from a medical point of view, it is necessary to adjust the depth of immersion in bathing water according to the degree of lung and heart abnormalities. In addition, according to the Ministry of Health and Welfare's demographic survey, the number of drowned people in the home is on the rise (Nihon Keizai Shimbun, December 24, 1999, evening edition), and safety measures in the bathtub are required.

The present invention has been invented for maintaining and adjusting a bather in a bathtub with a small water pressure load, for the purpose of health management during bathing and measures against accidents.

The structure is as follows. The head 2 attached to the upper end of the cradle 1 is the part where the head is put when using it.
Attach a suction cup to the back and fix it to the bathtub. The bed is provided with a detachable leg 3. The legs have a height adjustment function.

[0005] The head 2 of the bed 1 is placed on the edge 4 of the bathtub, and the bed is fixed with a suction cup on the back surface. The rest of the bed is submerged in the bath water. Adjust the bather's water depth by moving the legs up and down. Unlike a half-body bath where the water level is lowered, the body floats close to the surface of the water, and it is possible to take a recumbent bath with a reduced burden of water pressure. I do not feel cold in winter. By incorporating a timer in the head 2, the bathing time can be set and the elapsed time can be reported. The same effect can be obtained by placing the sac-shaped bed 5 in which air is sealed in a bathtub.

As described above, bathing can be performed while maintaining a low water pressure, so that both the sick and the healthy can enjoy the bathing effect according to their physical condition. Also, considering the surface area of the board occupied in the bathtub and the height of the board in the bathtub, it is difficult to imagine a water accident during use of the present invention.
