DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bathing table (bathing auxiliary table) used by a handicapped person to enter and exit a bathtub.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional bath basin cannot be used depending on the size and shape of a bathroom, that is, a bath tub or a washing basin, because the length of adjustable legs and the like are both limited for a washing side and a bath tub side. There are many cases.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has a size,
An object of the present invention is to provide a bath tub having a simple structure that can be used on a washing room side or a bathtub side for various bathrooms having different shapes and the like.

[0004]

A bathing table according to the present invention has a seat plate mounted on a base plate (substrate), a pair of telescopic legs extending downward on one side of the base plate, and another side portion. And a downward flange that can be hooked on the side wall of the bathtub.

[0005] The bath tub of the present invention generally has a flange near the flange on the other side of the base plate on a washing place or in a bath tub, on the side wall adjacent to the washing place of the bath tub, and a flange formed on the inner surface or outer surface of the side wall of the bath tub. Place the pair of telescoping legs on the washing place or on the inner bottom of the bathtub with the length adjusted so that the base plate is horizontal, It is installed on the side or the bathtub side, and is used in the form of moving from the washing place to the bathtub or from the bathtub to the washing place while sitting on the seat plate on the base plate.

[0006] In this bath, the seat can be configured to be rotatable about a vertical axis to facilitate rotation of the body while sitting.

At least one of the flange on the other side of the base plate and the portion adjacent to the flange is lined with a non-slip material such as rubber or plastic in order to stabilize the mounting on the side wall of the bathtub. That is, a non-slip lining can be applied.

[0008] Further, the pair of telescopic legs has intermittent (gradual) expansion and contraction for quick and accurate adjustment of the length (height).
It is possible to provide a configuration having both a rough elastic leg portion and a fine elastic leg portion with continuous expansion and contraction.

[0009]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of a bathing table according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the illustrated embodiment, the base plate 11
Is a square with downward flanges 12 and 13 on the left and right sides, and a sponge rubber 1 for improving comfort on the upper surface.
A circular seat 14 covered by 5 is rotatably mounted therearound via a seat mounting bolt 16 as a vertical axis.

The flange 12 on the left side of the base plate 11 is
A non-slip rubber 17 as a non-slip lining is attached to the back of the flange 12 and the base plate 11 adjacent to the flange 12 so as to stop the side wall 37 from being hooked.

On the other hand, a flange 13 on the right side of the base plate 11 is for mounting the telescopic leg 20, and a pair of upper and lower horizontally extending bolt holes (through holes) are provided at both ends adjacent to both corners on the right side of the base plate 11. The upper pipe leg 21 is provided with a plurality of horizontally extending bolt holes 22 spaced apart in the vertical direction through a leg mounting bolt 19 penetrating the bolt hole 18. One horizontal bolt hole 24
A pair of lower pipe legs 23 having a two-stage nut 25 fixed at the lower end opening, a screw rod leg 27 and a base pipe leg 28 having a two-stage nut 29 fixed at the upper end opening. The upper end of the telescopic leg 20, that is, the upper end of the upper pipe leg 21 is attached.

To attach the upper pipe leg 21 to the flange 13 of the base plate 11, a leg mounting hole 3 extending vertically is provided.
1 and a leg mounting block 30 having a bolt hole 32 and a bolt screw hole 33 extending horizontally across the leg mounting hole 31. The leg mounting block 30 is provided at the upper end of the upper pipe leg 21 with the bolt hole 32 and the bolt hole 32. Bolt screw hole 33
Is mounted so as to communicate with the bolt hole 22 at the upper end of the upper pipe leg 21, and the flange 13 on the right side of the base plate 11 is
Mounting bolt 19 penetrating through bolt hole 18 provided in
Is carried out from the bolt hole 32 of the leg mounting block 30 through the bolt hole 22 of the upper pipe leg 21 and screwed into the bolt screw hole 33 of the leg mounting block 30.

The upper pipe leg 21 and the lower pipe leg 23
The latter is connected by inserting a lock bolt 26 into the two bolt holes 24 and 22 in a communication state between the bolt hole 24 and the optional bolt hole 22, and constitutes a coarsely extendable / contractible coarsely extendable leg portion. are doing.

The lower pipe leg 23 and the screw rod leg 27 are
The upper part of the latter is connected by screwing the upper part of the latter to the nut 25 of the former lower end opening, and the screw rod leg 27 and the base pipe leg 28 are screwed to the nut 29 of the latter upper end opening by the lower part of the former. Connected by engaging,
The screw rod leg 27 as a main component constitutes a finely extendable and retractable leg portion that is continuously expanded and contracted.

When this embodiment is installed and used on the side of the bathtub 36, the upper pipe leg 21 and the lower pipe leg 23, which are the coarse telescopic legs of each telescopic leg 20, are provided in the bathtub 36.
The screw rod leg 27, which is a slightly telescopic leg portion, and the lower and base pipe legs 23, 28 are relatively extended and contracted so that the base plate 11 is substantially the same height as the upper end of the side wall 37 of the bathtub 36 adjacent to the washing place 38. While the base plate 11 is occupied by the left side of the base plate 11, the flange 12 is attached to the side wall 3 of the bathtub 36 adjacent to the washing place 38.
After being hooked and installed on the side wall 27 so as to be in contact with the outer surface of the base 7, each telescopic leg 20 is slightly expanded and contracted by the slightly telescopic leg so that the base plate 11 is horizontal (see FIG. 5). ).

On the other hand, in the case of installation and use on the side of the washing place 38, in the washing place 38, the coarse and fine telescopic legs of the telescopic legs 20 are appropriately expanded and contracted, and the left side of the base plate 11 is washed. On the side wall 37 of the bathtub 36 adjacent to 38,
After the flange 12 is hooked and installed so as to be in contact with the inner surface of the side wall 37 of the bathtub 36, the slightly expandable and contractible legs of each of the expandable legs 20 are slightly expanded and contracted to level the base plate 11 (FIG. 6).

The telescopic legs 20 are substantially similar to those shown in FIGS.
Can be extended to the state shown on the right side of FIG. 3 (the longest state), while it can be contracted to the state shown on the left side of FIG. 3 (the shortest state).

The bathing table according to the present invention may be any of various other types, such as omitting the covering of the seat on the base plate, or using foamed plastics as the coating material or the non-slip lining material of the flange or the base plate. The present invention can be implemented in the form, and is not limited to the above-described form.

[0020]

According to the bathing table of the present invention, it can be installed and used on both the washing side and the bathtub side in various bathrooms different in size, shape, etc. due to its configuration, and the structure can be improved. Because it is compact, it is easy to use and can be provided at low cost.
