Description

  The present invention relates to a handrail that is safe to use in mental hospitals, prisons, police detention centers, and the like.

  Conventionally, for example, as a handrail attached to the wall surface of a staircase, a hallway, a toilet, a bathroom, etc., an opening on the surface side is formed in the longitudinal direction with an accommodating portion having a predetermined width and depth, and an edge of the opening is appropriately A long casing having a structure in which it is embedded and fixed so as to be substantially flush with the wall surface, and disposed and fixed along the forming direction of the housing portion of the casing, There is known a handrail body that is supported so that approximately half of it is accommodated in the housing (see Patent Document 1).

JP 2000-314221 A

  Even in the case of this conventional handrail considering safety for preventing the handrail from hitting the human body, in a psychiatric hospital or prison etc. There is a problem that it is locked to a handrail main body supported in the housing of this, and this string-like body is wound around the neck to attempt suicide.

  An object of the present invention is to solve such problems and to provide a safe and simple handrail.

  In order to achieve this object, the present invention provides a base plate portion attached to a wall surface, a grip portion disposed at a distance from the base plate portion, and a projecting portion protruding from the base plate portion. A connecting plate portion extending over the entire length of the grip portion, and a space portion formed by the grip portion, the connecting plate portion, and the base plate portion, which are connected to both ends of the grip portion, the connecting plate portion, and the base plate portion. And a lid portion that closes both ends.

  According to the present invention, even if an attempt is made to lock the string-like body on the handrail, the string-like body cannot be locked and comes off, so there is no risk of suicide using the string-like body, The structure is simple.

It is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of the handrail of Example 1 of this invention. It is the top view which omitted and showed a part of handrail same as the above. It is the front view which abbreviate | omitted and showed a part of handrail same as the above. It is a top view of the handrail of Example 2 of the present invention.

  The example of the form for carrying out the present invention is shown below.

  A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of a handrail 1 according to the first embodiment.

  The handrail 1 includes a base plate portion 2 that attaches the handrail 1 to a wall surface, and a tubular grip portion that is disposed in parallel to the base plate portion 2 with an interval that allows a hand to enter from the base plate portion 2. 3, a connecting plate portion 4 that protrudes from the base plate portion 2 and supports the grip portion 3 over the entire length of the grip portion 3, and end portions at both ends of the grip portion 3 and the connecting plate portion 4, The base plate portion 2 includes lid portions 5 and 5 that close both ends of the space portion 6 formed by the base plate portion 2, the grip portion 3, and the connecting plate portion 4.

  FIG. 2 is a plan view in which a part of the handrail 1 is omitted, and FIG. 3 is a front view in which a part of the handrail 1 is omitted. Reference numeral 2a denotes a screw hole for mounting.

  2 corresponds to a view taken in the direction of arrow A in FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 corresponds to a view taken in the direction of arrow B in FIG.

  In the plan view of FIG. 2, the connecting plate portion 4 is formed in a trapezoidal shape in which the side on the base plate portion 2 side on the rear side is longer than the side on the grip portion 3 side on the front portion. The outer surface is formed on an inclined surface so that there is no unevenness that hangs a string on the surface.

  Further, the grip portion 3 and the connecting plate portion 4 do not have a missing portion, a notch portion, a hole, or the like in the middle, and the handrail 1 is hung or tied with a string-like body such as a string. The structure is not possible.

  Next, the usage method and effect of the handrail 1 of the present embodiment will be described.

  The handrail 1 of the present invention is attached along a staircase or a corridor, or attached to a toilet or bathroom in a mental hospital, a prison, or a police detention center.

  In attaching the handrail 1, a wood screw or the like is inserted into a plurality of screw holes 2 a provided in the base plate portion 2 and screwed to a wall surface to fix the base plate portion 2 to the wall surface.

  The handrail 1 can be used when the user inserts a finger into the space 6 through the opening between the base plate 2 and the grip 3 and grips the grip 3.

  Moreover, since the handrail 1 cannot be hung or tied with a string-like body, even if there is a person who intends to commit suicide, the handrail cannot be used for suicide, and there is a risk of suicide. Suitable for use in mental hospitals, prisons or police detention centers.

  In the present embodiment, the grip portion 3 is formed in a circular tube shape, but this may have any cross-sectional shape such as a rod-shaped body or a rectangular cross-section instead of a circular tube.

  A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 4 is a plan view of the handrail 11 of this embodiment.

  A vertical cross-sectional view of the handrail 11 is the same as that of FIG. 1 of the first embodiment, and includes a base plate portion 2, a grip portion 3, and a connecting plate portion 4.

  One end of the handrail 11 closes a space portion 6 formed by the base plate portion 2, the grip portion 3, and the connecting plate portion 4 with a lid portion 5.

  The other end portion 4a of the handrail 11 is formed so as to be bonded to the side wall surface a or the floor surface without leaving a gap, and the back surface of the handrail 11 is screwed onto the back wall surface b with the base plate portion 2 with wood screws. It is formed to be worn and fixed.

  Similarly to the handrail 1 of the first embodiment, the handrail 11 of the present embodiment cannot be hung or tied with a string-like body such as a string from the outside, and thus is suitable for a handrail for preventing suicide. Yes.

  In the present embodiment, one end portion of the handrail 11 is closed with the lid portion 5 and the other end portion 4a is attached to the side wall surface a. It is good also as a structure without a cover part so that it may bind to.

  The handrail of the present invention is used mainly for the purpose of preventing suicide in mental hospitals, prisons or police detention centers.
