Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is intended to enable a person with a physical disability who cannot go to the toilet alone to urinate and defecate alone (even if he / she takes some care) in a bed. It relates to a new toilet bed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a sick person, bedridden person, etc., immediately after an operation, wears a shime or regularly wears an omar (portable toilet), and a caregiver assists in urination and defecation. It cannot be denied that care for urinating and defecation is a troublesome task for caregivers, but more than that, it is awkward and burdensome for care recipients.

[0003] Conventionally, there have been proposals to attach a toilet to a bed (for example, Japanese Patent Application No. 64-85650 proposed by the present applicant, etc.). It has not been widely used because the operation was complicated and could not be operated by a single user.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and it is easy to operate the system. It is an object of the present invention to provide a bed with a toilet which can be operated by one person.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, a mat 20 is placed on a mat support frame 10 and a head side portion 11 of the mat support frame 10 can be raised. Buttocks, buttocks supporting part 12 of the mat support frame 10
Below the is provided a toilet 30 which can be raised and lowered by a lifting device 31, and above the toilet 30 of the mat support frame body 10,
Door frames 13, 13 are provided so as to be able to move up and down so as to open in the upper right and left directions of the bed.
When the toilet frame 30 rises and opens, when the toilet 30 descends, it pronely closes.
3 and 13 are provided with H-shaped incisions 21 which are substantially horizontally oriented in a plane.
2 and 22 are taken.

[0006] Therefore, when the user operates the bed with a toilet according to the present invention while lying in the bed, the doors 22, 22 can be opened.
As the is opened, the buttocks are lifted slightly to raise the toilet 30 to the window-like portion formed by opening and closing the doors 22 and 22 of the mat 20, and put the buttocks on the toilet 30 to urinate and defecate. It has an effect of being able to be in a state where it can be performed.

Further, according to the present invention, when the user wears clothes that break the buttocks when the doors 22, 22 are opened, the user opens the clothes by the friction of the doors 22, 22 and keeps it open. It exhibits the effect of enabling urination and defecation.

The bed with a toilet of the present invention has a door frame 1
Since the doors 22, 22 are located on the doors 3, 13, even if the door frames 13, 13 are lifted, the doors 22, 22 are crushed by the weight and rise above the mat 20. The height of the door frame 13 is not so high, and acts so as not to give a pain to the user even when the door frame portions 13 are moved up and down.

Next, according to a second aspect of the present invention, a mat 20 having elasticity and a predetermined thickness is placed on the mat support frame 10, and the head side portion 11 of the mat support frame 10 is raised. A toilet 30 which can be raised and lowered by a lifting device 31 is provided below the buttocks support portion 12 of the mat support frame 10, and a bed above the left and right is located above the toilet 30 of the mat support frame 10. A door frame portion 13 is provided which can be moved up and down in the direction. The door frame portion 13 is opened by elevating when the toilet 30 rises, and prone to close when the toilet 30 descends. 20 is provided with a cutout 21 having a substantially horizontal H-shape at a portion corresponding to the door frame portions 13, 13, and double-opening door portions 22, 22 are formed on the mat 20. , 13 are closed and the opening and closing doors 22, 22 are opened. A back position close slightly inward from the distal end portion is obtained by taking the technical means comprising tight binding by a margin tape 23 or the like.

Therefore, in the bed with a toilet according to the present invention, in addition to the function of the above-mentioned claim 1, when the door frames 13, 13 are closed, the opening / closing front ends thereof and the opening / closing front ends of the opening / closing doors 22, 22 are provided. The rear side position slightly shifted outward is tightly tied with a margin with tape 23 or the like. Door portions 22, 22 having cushioning properties formed by a part of
Are interposed, and the opening / closing doors 22, 22 are
Since the movements of the doors 3 and 13 are interlocked with a margin, the doors 22 and 22 have a large buffering effect on the human body and also have a function of opening and closing the upper part of the toilet 30 reliably. Further, as will be described later, the present invention also has an effect of preventing the door frames 13, 13 from directly contacting the human body.

Next, according to a third aspect of the present invention, the mat 20 is placed on the mat support frame 10, and the head side portion 11 of the mat support frame 10 can be moved up and down. Below the buttocks supporting portion 12 of the body 10, a toilet 30 which can be raised and lowered by a lifting device 31 is provided.
Above the toilet 30, door frames 13, 13 which can be raised and lowered in the left and right directions above the bed are provided. The door frames 13, 13 are raised and opened when the toilet 30 is raised, and the toilet 30 is lowered. Then, the mat 20 is folded down and closed, and a portion of the mat 20 that fits the door frame portion 13 is provided with a substantially horizontal H-shaped cut groove 21 so that the mat 20 can be opened and closed. 22 and 22 are formed, and the opening / closing end portions of the door frames 13 and 13 when the door frames 13 and 13 are closed and the back surface position slightly inward from the opening / closing end portions of the opening / closing door portions 22 and 22 are provided with a tape 23 or the like. The lifting device 31 moves the head-side part 11 of the mat support frame 10 up and down so that a part of the weight of the upper body of the user is added to the buttocks. The opening / closing door portions 22 inside the substantially horizontal H-shaped cut groove 21 are not moved up and down. It is those that take technical means.

Therefore, in the bed with a toilet according to the present invention, in addition to the effect of the second aspect, the head-side portion 11 of the mat support frame 10 is moved up and down, and a part of the weight of the upper body of the user is reduced. Since the opening / closing doors 22 inside the H-shaped incision 21 in the plane are approximately horizontal after the buttock is joined, the user wears clothes in which the buttock breaks in advance. In this case, the opening of the doors 22 and 22 can be more reliably opened by friction.

It is easy to perform urination and defecation in a substantially sitting posture with the upper body raised.
It also acts to keep the user in a posture that facilitates urination and defecation.

[0014]

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a bed main body, and 2 denotes a bathtub arranged below the bed main body 1. Although not explicitly shown in the drawing, the bathtub 2 is provided with a turning wheel on the bottom surface and also has a drive source (not shown), which can be moved from under the bed body 1 to the side of the bed body 2, If you take a bath,
The bathtub 2 is drawn out from the lower part of the bed body 1 to the side (accurately, pushed out by a driving source) for use. The bathtub 2 may be omitted in the present invention.

The bed body 1 can be a conventionally known one. In the present invention, the mat 20 is placed on the mat support frame 10 and the head side portion 1 of the mat support frame 10 is placed.

As shown most clearly in FIG. 2, the metal pipe is formed by bending it into a frame shape. Of course, the material may be appropriately selected. In this embodiment, the frame body is used for weight reduction.
Of course, any material that can support the mat 20 may be formed of a flat plate material, or a material in which only an outer frame is prepared and a cloth tape or the like is attached to the outer frame in a lattice shape may be used. Things.

The mat support frame 10 is arranged so that it can be placed on the bed main body 1. The mat support frame 10 is divided into a plurality of parts (in the example shown in FIG. 2, upper and lower parts) from the head to the foot. The head-side part 11 can be moved up and down. What is necessary is just to use a conventionally well-known thing for this raising device,
In the present embodiment, the mat support frame 10 pivots the foot side portion (the lower side in the figure) of the head side portion 11 (pivot to another portion of the mat support frame 10 or the bed body). 1), and a power cylinder 14 is interposed between the bed main body 1 and the head-side portion 11 so that the power cylinder 1

The head-side portion 11 of the mat support frame 10
As a result of the experiment, it was convenient and convenient to be able to move up and down to a substantially right angle as a result of the experiment. It is a matter of course that the above-mentioned supine movement constitutes a mechanism that allows the person to lie down even when the person is lying on the mat 20 and receiving weight. Further, in the present embodiment, only the head-side portion 11 can be moved up and down, but the foot side may be bent in a W shape.

The mat 20 can also be a conventionally known one, and has a proper elasticity and flexibility suitable for sleep and a proper air permeability. And a cover enclosing the cushion material. In addition, this mat 20 can
In the following, it is indispensable to have a predetermined thickness, but this is to reduce the height of the mat 20 which is crushed when the door frames 13, 13 to be described later are raised, and protrudes above the mat 20. This is to prevent the human body from feeling uncomfortable.

The present invention relates to the mat support frame 1 described above.
A toilet 30 which can be moved up and down by an elevating device 31 is provided below the buttocks supporting portion 12 of No. 0. It is a matter of course that the toilet 30 is of a flush type, and a flexible water injection pipe and a drain pipe (not shown) are connected to each other, and it is desirable that the toilet 30 include a flush water injection device and a hot air drying device. Further, although not shown, a concealed gold portion is attached to this toilet 30 so as to be able to enter and exit, and it is preferable that the concealed gold portion be raised when used.

The lifting device 31 of the toilet 30 is
In the illustrated example, the cross angle of the links 33, 33 combined in an X-shape is changed by the power cylinder 32, and the urinal 3 is mounted together with the loading table 34 provided at the upper ends of the links 33, 33.
Although it is designed to raise and lower 0, it goes without saying that the lifting device 31 may be of another type.
Further, in this embodiment, since the bathtub 2 is used, the bathtub 2 is normally located at the left and right center of the lower portion of the mat support frame 10, so that the toilet 30 is positioned closer to the back side in FIG. It is in a standby position, and is not moved with the bathtub 2.
When the toilet is used, the toilet 30 moves together with the bathtub 2 so that the toilet 30 moves below the buttocks supporting portion 12 of the mat support frame 10 at the center in the left and right direction. When the bathtub 2 is not used, the toilet 30 may be fixed at a predetermined position so that it can only be moved up and down.

The toilet 3 of the mat support frame 10
The door frames 13 and 13 are provided above the bed frame 0 so as to be able to move up and down so as to open in the left and right directions above the bed.
When the toilet bowl 30 rises, the toilet bowls 3 and 13 open, and the toilet bowl 3 is opened.
When 0 falls, it protrudes and closes. That is, when the toilet 30 rises, the door frame portions 13 and 13 are opened, and the upper part of the toilet 30 is opened.

The above-mentioned door frame portions 13 are provided on the mat support frame 1.
0, which is separately provided on one side (the left and right outer sides in FIG. 2)
Is pivotally attached to a part of the mat support frame 10 (may be pivotally connected to the bed body 1). In the present embodiment, cam floors 13a, 13a (FIG. reference)
And the cam floor 1 is provided on one side of the
3a is provided with cam surfaces 30a, 30a for contacting the toilet 3a.
The door frame 13 is moved up and down by the rise of 0 (the down movement is caused by its own weight), but it is needless to say that the door frame 13 is moved up and down by a power cylinder or the like (not shown). Good.

The door frames 13, 1 of the mat 20
3 is provided with a substantially horizontal H-shaped incision 21
The mat 20 is provided with double-opening doors 22,22.
Is formed. That is, even if the door frame portions 13 and 13 are opened, if the mat 20 on the
0 cannot be used, so that the door frame 13,
13 is a substantially horizontal H-shaped incision 2
The mat 20 is provided with a double-opening door 22, 2.
2, and the opening and closing door portions 22, 22 are connected to the door frame portion 13,
13 to open and close (up and down).

In the present invention, when the toilet 30 is used, although not shown, a signal for using the toilet is input by a hand switch. Then, the toilet 30 rises (when there is the bathtub 2 and there is no toilet 30 at the left and right center of the bed, the toilet 30 moves to the left and right center of the bed body 1 and then rises), and the mat support frame 10 The head part 11 moves up and down. When the head-side portion 11 of the mat support frame 10 moves up, the bed user is raised, and a part of the weight of the upper body is added to the buttocks. And, at this timing,
The toilet bowl 30 rises and the door frames 13, 13 or the opening / closing door 2
Raise 2,22 and open. Then, the upper end of the toilet 30 comes into contact with the sitting buttocks underneath, and urination or defecation is possible.

When the urination or defecation is completed, the operator pushes a cleaning switch (not shown) of the hand switch. Then, after the washing and drying are completed, the toilet use end switch is pressed (the toilet use end switch may be omitted). Then, the toilet 30 descends, and the head-side portion 11 of the mat support frame 10 protrudes and returns to its original position. When the toilet 30 descends, the bed user slightly lifts the buttocks,
The body is turned sideways so that the body does not get caught in the closing doors 22 that are closed.

Next, in addition to the above construction, the invention according to claim 2 further comprises an opening / closing front end portion when the door frames 13, 13 are closed,
A configuration is provided in which a back surface position slightly inward from the opening / closing front end portion of the opening / closing door portion 22 is tightly bound with a margin with a tape 23 or the like. The door frame parts 13 and 13 and the opening and closing door parts 22 and 22 need to cooperate with one another as a matter of course. However, since the door frames 13 and 13 are mechanical movements, the doors 22 and 22 are parts that move in contact with the human body, and are not restricted to purely mechanical movements. It is desirable to make a movement with some allowance in the contact area with the human body without giving a feeling of strangeness to the human body.

However, the mat 20 is provided on the door frames 13, 13, and the movement of the door frames 13, 13 is as follows.
Since it is transmitted to the human body through the elastic doors 22, 22, the doors 22, 22 usually function as a cushioning material, and the movement of the door frame 13, 13 is not directly transmitted to the human body. However, the opening / closing door portions 22 are turned up and the door frame portions 13
Can also be assumed to directly contact the human body. Therefore, the door frames 13, 13 and the opening / closing doors 22, 22 have an appropriate margin, but the door frames 13, 1 are not moved so as to be largely displaced.
3 and the opening / closing doors 22,
Even if the door frame portions 13 are raised by tightening the back side position slightly outside of the opening / closing front end portion with a tape 23 or the like with a margin (top dead center, 90 degrees in the present embodiment). (Even if it turns and stands upright), the front-end | tip of the opening-and-closing door parts 22 and 22 goes around on the door frame parts 13 and 13, and the said door frame parts 13 and 13 do not contact a human body directly.

The tapes 23 are provided in a one-to-one pair on the back side of the opening / closing door section 22. It is sufficient to bind one side of the door frame section 13. Fasteners are used to lock the two tapes together. Note that the mounting portion of the tape 23 is
By setting the position slightly closer to the outside than the open / close front end portions of the open / close door portions 22, 22, even if the door frame portions 13, 13 stand upright, the front end of the open / close door portions 22, 22 may wrap around due to friction with a human body or the like. The top end portion of the opening / closing door portion 22 is always located on the top.

Next, according to a third aspect of the present invention, in addition to the configuration of the second aspect, the elevating device 31 of the toilet bowl 30 is used by moving the head-side portion 11 of the mat support frame 10 up and down. After a part of the weight of the upper body of the person starts to be added to the buttocks, the opening / closing door portion 2 inside the H-shaped incision 21 in a substantially horizontal plane
2, 22 are made to move up and down.

Elevation of the head side part 11 and the opening / closing door part 2
The timing of the movements of 2,22 may be appropriately selected, but it is of course desirable that the user be in the most comfortable and comfortable state without any discomfort. Waking up, the user firmly recognized the use of the toilet bowl with the body, and then the opening and closing doors 22, 22 were opened, which was the least uncomfortable.

The bed with a toilet according to the present invention is based on the premise that the user cannot take off his pajamas pants or break the hem of a yukata by himself, and wear back-open clothing. The rear of the buttocks can be opened when the toilet is used.
The back of the garment is opened by the friction that opens at 22, and a certain amount of frictional force is required. Therefore,
In the present invention, after a part of the weight of the upper body of the user is added to the buttocks by moving the head-side part 11 up and down, the opening / closing door part 22 inside the substantially horizontal H-shaped notch 21 in the plane is used. , 22
The back of the garment was opened to ensure that the back of the garment opened.

[0032]

According to the present invention, as described above, the toilet 30 is raised to open the doors 22, 22, which are part of the mat 20, so that the user turns on the hand switch. By merely indicating the intention of the user, a bed with a toilet bowl on which the buttocks can be placed on the toilet 30 and urination and defecation can be provided. Note that this operation can be performed by a person who is physically disabled, and even when used by a person who has no physical freedom at all, it can be used for a little care of the caregiver and the labor of the caregiver can be used. It is possible to provide a bed with a toilet bowl that can reduce ashamedness and annoyance to a caregiver for a person who is physically handicapped but whose cognitive ability has not declined, and reduces a burden on the mind.

In the present invention, since the head-side portion 11 of the mat support frame 10 can be moved up and down, the upper body can be raised on the bed and the system can be placed substantially on the toilet 30. In particular, it is possible to provide a bed with a toilet bowl that can take a conventional posture for a toilet.

Further, in addition to the above effects, the invention according to claim 2 further comprises an opening / closing front end when the door frames 13, 13 are closed,
Since the rear surface position slightly inward from the open / close front end portion of the open / close door portion 22 is tightly tied with a margin with tape 23 or the like, as described above, the door frame portion 13 /
It is possible to provide a bed with a toilet bowl with less discomfort due to thirteen movements.

In addition to the above effects, the invention of claim 3 further increases the weight of the upper body of the user by raising and lowering the head-side portion 11 of the mat support frame 10 by the lifting device 31 of the toilet 30. Since a part of the opening has been added to the buttocks, the opening / closing door portions 22, 22 inside the cutout 21 having a substantially horizontal H-shape in plan view have been moved up and down. It is possible to provide a bed with a toilet bowl that enables even a physically handicapped person to automatically open the back and place the buttocks directly on the toilet bowl.
