Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the great difficulty of conventional bathtubs for children, the aged people, and those who have trouble in walking, etc. as the conventional bathtubs are when entering the bathtubs for taking a bath, the user mostly must enter by stepping over it, or the bottom of the bathtub is deeper than a floor level, or a lift is necessary to enter the bathtubs.SOLUTION: The conventional bathtubs are difficult for children, the aged people, and those who have trouble with their legs to step it over, to be lifted in it, or to step down into it. With a bathtub of the present invention, a user does not have to step over the bathtub, or step down to the bathtub bottom, and can take a bath even on a cart with casters safely and securely, as an opening/closing door, a lift, and a hot water supplying/discharging unit are provided. The bathtub becomes an ideal bathtub as it eliminates the trouble from the conventional lifting.

Description

In the present invention, in the case of conventional bathing, children, elderly people, and people with reduced mobility are very difficult to bathe to enter straddling or to enter a bathtub whose bottom is lower than the floor surface. I designed a bathtub that can be used.

There are two types of bathtubs, traditional bathtubs that are straddled or lower in the bottom than the floor.

Traditional bathtubs straddle or have a lower bottom than the floor, making it difficult for children, elderly people, and disabled people with disabilities. It was difficult to take a bath without help from a third party or lifting with a lift.

The traditional bathing tub and the bathtub with a lower floor than the floor were difficult for children, elderly people, and disabled people to bathe. They had the problem of having to take a third party's hand or lift it with a lift.

The bathtub of the present invention can be easily put on the floor level by providing an open / close door for those who cannot easily enter without suspending, hanging, or helping by a third party. Children, elderly people, physically handicapped people, etc. can bathe safely and safely without straddling or hanging. When bathing, the inside of the tank is filled with emptying storage hot water storage so that it is empty. When the door is closed, the suction / discharge hot water storage machine is drained, and hot water is poured into the tank. Also, when exiting, if the suction and discharge hot water storage device is made into hot water, the tank will become empty and the door can be opened. In this case, when the tank is in a fixed state and the bottom of the tank is installed lower than the floor surface due to one installation location condition, the tank is also raised by the lift function lift and the bottom is parallel to the floor surface in a fixed position. It does not straddle, does not hang, and can be easily and safely bathed even with a chair with a piece.

So far, the bathtub, straddling, hanging, or borrowing a third party has been very difficult for children, elderly people, disabled people, etc. By installing an open / close door on the bathtub this time, the bottom of the tank can be moved in and out parallel to the floor, and depending on the installation location, the lift and lift function can be opened and closed even when the tank is deeper than the floor. If the door is attached, it is the same as the tank that does not move up and down. Whatever the case, there is an effect that people who have had difficulty so far can take a bath with ease and peace of mind.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

Hereinafter, modes for carrying out the present invention will be described.
When bathing for children, elderly people, disabled people, etc., if you want to bathe when the bottom of the bathtub is fixed in parallel with the floor, first tub water is poured into the hot water storage tank in (g), and then the door in (b) Opening and tightening can be used to drain the hot water stored in the person's hot water storage. In addition, in the case of a bathtub where the bottom of the tank is sinking from one floor, it is basic to install the lifting lift machine of (c) and lift it from the dotted line tank of (d) to the tank position of (b) You should follow the operation order.

(B) Bathtub (b) Open / close door (c) Lift (d) Descent line descent position (e) Hot water storage

FIG. 1 is a perspective view.
1 is a bathtub main body, and 7 is the open / close door of the present invention.
There are two types of doors, the open door type and the sliding door type shown in FIG.
When bathing, before opening the door, the hot water in the tank is temporarily stored with the hot water absorption button of the hot water storage tank 6, the tank is emptied, the door is closed, and this time the hot water stored is discharged into the tank. Soak it in water. There is no worry about leaking because this door has a water-tight waterproof gasket. When exiting, the hot water in the tank is emptied, and if the 6 hot water absorption buttons of the 5 hot water storage tanks are pressed, the inside of the tank becomes empty so that it can exit. In the case of a deep-bottomed bathtub, use a lift machine 2 to raise the floor from the floor to 3 floors and place it in a normal position for normal bathing, or submerge it to its original position if you want to feel a sensation. Just do it. It becomes pleasant to take a bath by constantly moving up and down.
FIG. 2 is a plan view.
FIG. 2 shows an open / close door, and there are two types of doors: a hinged door (a) and a sliding door (b). Waterproof packing was applied to prevent water leakage and water pressure from the gap when the door was closed. The width of the door was set to allow a general person with a chair of 45 to 50 cm to pass.

Hereinafter, modes for carrying out the present invention will be described. When taking a bath for children, the elderly, or the physically disabled, first, the hot water in the bathtub is absorbed into the hot water storage. Empty the tank and open the door. When you enter, close the door, and drain the hot water storage machine, the hot water can enter and soak in the tank. To get out, you can get out by sucking the hot water storage machine, emptying the bath water and opening the door. However, in the case of a child, it is when the bottom of the bathtub is parallel to the floor.

Claims (1)

Conventionally, there are bathtubs straddling when bathing and tanks whose bottom is lower than the floor, which has been extremely difficult for children, elderly people, and disabled persons. Therefore, description will be made as shown in the following figure.

In the case of the above three bathtubs, it was difficult for children, elderly people, handicapped persons, etc. to bathe. To solve this problem, we devised as shown below.
Conventional bathtubs are difficult to straddle, hang, and go deep into children, elderly people, and people with disabilities in the feet. The bathtub of the present invention is equipped with an open / close door, lifting lift and intake / exhaust hot water storage machine. And got an ideal bathtub.

In the case of a bathtub bathing with the floor level shown in the middle of Fig. 3 (a), children, elderly people, physically handicapped persons, etc. do not straddle and do not hang and keep the entrance door closed. At this time, since the inside of the tank is empty, if the hot water of the attached suction / discharge hot water storage machine is discharged and poured into the tank, it is immersed in the hot water as it is. On the other hand, if the intake / exhaust hot water storage machine is inhaled, the tank will be empty and the door should be opened. The following (b) shows a bathtub that sinks below the floor due to the installation site conditions. In such a sink, it is difficult for children, the elderly, and the physically handicapped. Therefore, in this case, if the bathing sequence of (A) is used, the situation is exactly the same. To do this, first, if the tank that is sinking is lifted to the floor position, it is the same as the horizontal state of (a). It is different from (a) after the door is closed and hot water enters the tank. From there, it can be lowered to the lowering position by a lift so that you can enjoy the feeling of being fuller than the floor. (C) The equipment that was hung up until now is no longer necessary with the opening and closing door, so you can get on and take a bath with a chair with a piece, so it is safe, safe, and easy to care This is an effective bathtub and an ideal bathtub.
