Description

    The current shampoo table for shampooing hairs has a neck on the heel of the table and the face is facing upward, but the head is not supported, so the neck is stressed and uncomfortable. In particular, women have been exposed to this condition for a long time, not only for hair washing, but also for treatments and cleaning of permanent liquids, and there have been reports of accidents involving neck injury and / or anemia. In order to solve this problem, a stand that can support the head is effective, and the present invention is characterized in that the height of the stand and the function can be adjusted steplessly. Any person with a back head of any shape can handle it. Unlike the machine, the height adjustment mechanism is accompanied by oil unlike the machine, and since there is no gear or motor, there is no accident such as leakage, oil stains, or hair entrainment. The leg can be adjusted to the height of four or more fulcrum points, so that it can accommodate the curved surface of most commercially available bowls.

    The upper head support is cylindrical and is installed so that it is hollow and covers the main body. The top surface is a part where the human occipital region rides, and a large gentle curve is given in a concave shape, so that the human occipital region can be generally placed without a sense of incongruity, but in consideration of the so-called cliff shape or bump-shaped head Can be used with a low-resilience mat or urethane mat.

    There is an air bag inside the main body, so it can be freely replaced. This airbag is inflated only in the vertical direction, and air can be sent by grasping the grip of the tip of the pipe extending from the airbag, and the height can be adjusted steplessly so that the cervical vertebra and the head are almost parallel. It is what. By closing and grasping the air valve of the gripping bowl, air is sent out, and the airbag swells in the vertical direction, pushing up the top lid and performing stepless adjustment. By opening the air valve of the grip bowl at hand, the air is exhausted and the airbag is reduced.

    A plurality of holes are arbitrarily drilled in the main body. This is a drain hole that drains water from the body. Since this device is used by being exposed to water or aqueous chemicals, a drain hole is required.

There are four or more leg supports from the side to the bottom of the main body, and detachable legs for installing the bowl surface are attached here to accommodate any bowl shape.
For example, when the bowl has a steep R-plane inclination, it is possible to install the instrument at a height parallel to the head by attaching a short leg to the front and a long leg to the back. If a bent leg is attached, it can be used for bowls with deep steep angles.

The leg has a large and powerful suction cup on one side and sticks to the bowl.
One side is a portion that can be inserted into a hole provided in the bottom surface of the main body. Use various lengths that are suitable for the appropriate bowl angle. The foldable leg has an indirect part and can be folded, so it can be adapted to places with a steep angle.

    This instrument is a water- and chemical-resistant material or a material that has been processed to exhibit water- and chemical-resistant performance, and covers rubber and plastics, metals, and wood in general.

    Many hair salons currently use a hair-washing table facing backwards, but the bowl itself is not supported by the head, and even if there is a dressing table, the height cannot be changed because it is fixed. There have also been reports of cases of cervical fatigue and anemia caused by defect pressure that have been transported to hospitals, and the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has also called for safety measures. The present invention solves these problems, and makes it possible to use the hair safely and comfortably. Conventionally, the neck and head positions are not parallel, and the head is lowered, which is an event that has occurred due to neck compression. By applying the head support, pressure can be avoided and stepless height adjustment can be realized, so it can be applied in a wide range.

    By installing an air expansion / contraction type airbag on the main body, it is possible to freely expand and contract without any step within the expansion / contraction range of the airbag. Since no machinery is used, accidents such as oil stains, pulling in mechanical parts such as hair gears and bites are completely unthinkable. Another major feature is that there is no leakage accident, which is a great enemy, because electricity is not used. As for the legs, the legs are nested so that the height and angle are horizontal, and there is no complicated structure like a machine adjuster, so maintenance is easy. The leg joint specification can be installed in any shape. Since it is attached to the bowl with a suction cup, it is easy and easy to modify. Even though the suction cups are small, there are many that have the power to support 100 kg with one piece, and since the weight of the head is generally about 5 to 10 kg, sufficient support including safety can be achieved.

    The instrument is safe because it uses water-resistant and chemical-resistant materials, or any material that has been marked on the left, and is easy to clean and clean. Moreover, since it consists of parts, it can withstand long-term use by replacing only the consumable part, and is economical.

    There will be no complaints of symptoms such as cervical spine compression, and accidents caused by these will be drastically reduced.

    Public facilities such as barbers, beauty salons, nursing homes, and hospitals can be introduced with peace of mind. If it is proved to be safe, it can be part of standardization as a standard.

Claims (8)

A shampoo sink for business use and home use, which supports the head of the sink and prevents damage to the head and neck during hair washing. The current shampoo sink is just a bowl, and even if the head is applied backwards, there is nothing to support the head and there must be constant pressure on the cervical spine, so fatigue and sometimes neck compression Accidents such as anemia occur. In particular, in the case of long hair, since the hair washing time is long and the hair gets wet, the weight of the head increases and the probability of damaging the neck increases. By supporting the head, there is no force applied to the neck, and comfort can be improved and obstacles can be prevented. The equipment consists of a head cradle, a main body with a height adjustment mechanism, and a variable installation with a vanity-fixed suction cup, each of which possesses functions, and by combining them, it is a tool that prevents cervical bone damage. . The head cradle is a part on which a human back head is placed. The shape is cylindrical, just like a canned can upside down, and the upper part has a concave mortar shape to put the rear head on top, and the upper part is a pad or shock absorber for protecting the rear head Is stretched.
This cradle is used in a form covering the lower body.
The materials used are all resin, metal, and wood, all of which have been subjected to chemical-resistant paint or chemical-resistant processing. This is because the chemical is violated by these chemicals when rinsing or the like after shampooing or after performing a permanent or the like, and chemical resistance is required. The main body has a cylindrical shape and is provided with a mechanism capable of fine adjustment by pushing up the head cradle. The material is the same as the head support. This mechanism is equipped with a detachable dedicated airbag that expands and contracts only in the vertical direction in the main body, and by holding the pump by hand, the air is sent to the airbag and the airbag is inflated in the vertical direction. The cradle is raised. It can also be reduced by removing air. It is a great feature that it can be expanded and contracted steplessly to the minimum and maximum shape of the equipped airbag. This device can be freely adjusted in height, so that it can be adapted to an angle that does not damage the cervical vertebra even in humans with any occipital shape. There is a water drain hole on the side of the body so that it does not interfere with the expansion and contraction of the airbag due to the water during washing. The holes are drilled at any location so that the drainage efficiency is maximized. A pipe hole for air feeding into the air bag is also open and connected to the grip of the pump. Near the bottom of the main body, there are four or more holes for legs. In this hole, legs with different lengths with suction cups can be placed. This is because there are many types of bowls, such as the radius and depth of the dressing table. When one standard leg is fixed to the bowl, it is not useful when it is tilted largely diagonally. It can be solved by changing the length of each leg freely. The legs are made of the same material as the head support, with a powerful suction cup on one side. This suction cup sticks to the bowl and prevents the instrument from slipping and supports the body.
There are various lengths of bars, and any length is used according to the bowl used.
The other end of the bar is inserted and fixed in a plurality of holes at four or more places provided in the main body.
By preparing long and short types of rods that fit along the curves of various bowls, almost all standards can be adapted.
In order to cope with large and deep legs, the legs are screw-type in the middle and can be bent freely, so that the legs can also be adsorbed on the side of the bowl.
