Description
【0001】[0001]
本考案は、浴槽に関し、特に高齢者や身体障害者でも安心して容易に入浴する ことができ、しかも衛生的な福祉用の浴槽に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a bathtub, and more particularly to a sanitary welfare bathtub that enables elderly people and people with physical disabilities to take a bath safely and easily.
【0002】[0002]
従来の浴槽は、通常その上面の洗い場床面からの高さが30cm乃至60cm あり、健常者には適した高さであるが、高齢者や身体障害者(以下「高齢者等」 という)のなかには、この高さの浴槽の側壁を跨いで浴槽に入り、同様に跨いで 浴槽から洗い場に出るのが困難な人が多い。 Conventional bathtubs usually have a height of 30 cm to 60 cm above the floor for washing, which is suitable for healthy people, but for elderly people and people with physical disabilities (hereinafter referred to as "elderly people"). Many people find it difficult to cross the side wall of a bathtub of this height to enter the bathtub, and then to straddle it to the washroom.
【0003】 また、浴槽の側壁上面をこの洗い場床面から僅かに出ている程度のものにし、 浴槽本体の底面を洗い場の床面よりも低くすることによって、浴槽の深さを確保 したものもある。 このものは、浴槽に入るのには容易であるが、洗い場で体にかけた湯や水が浴 槽内に入り込み、浴槽内の湯を汚すことになるので非衛生的である。In addition, some baths have a bathtub with a depth slightly above the floor surface of the washing basin, and the bottom of the bathtub body is lower than the floor surface of the washing basin to ensure the depth of the bathtub. is there. This product is easy to enter the bathtub, but it is unsanitary because hot water or water applied to the body at the washing place enters the bathtub and pollutes the hot water in the bathtub.
【0004】 さらに、浴槽本体の一つの側壁に引戸を設け、入浴者が浴槽内に入った後引戸 を閉め、隣接する貯湯槽から送湯装置を操作して湯を浴槽へ移し、入浴が終わる と浴槽の湯を貯湯槽へ返送した後、引き戸を開け、車椅子の入浴者が浴槽から出 るようにしたものが提案されている(特開平7−308357号)。Further, a sliding door is provided on one side wall of the bathtub body, the bather closes the sliding door after entering the bathtub, operates the hot water supply device from the adjacent hot water storage tank to transfer hot water to the bathtub, and then the bathing ends. It has been proposed that after returning the hot water in the bathtub to the hot water storage tank, the sliding door is opened so that the bather in the wheelchair can get out of the bathtub (JP-A-7-308357).
【0005】 上記特開平7−308357号に開示された浴槽は、車椅子に乗った状態で入 浴できるという利点があるが、引戸や貯湯槽などの設備を別に設ける必要があり 、高価なものとなり、浴槽内へ裸になって入ってから湯を入れるので浴槽に湯が 満たされるまで待たねばならず、浴室内をよく温めておかないと待っている間に 寒い思いをしなければならないなどの問題がある。 また、入浴後も貯湯槽に湯を回収した後でなければ、外へ出られないという問 題があり、車椅子を使用しなくても入浴可能な程度の障害者や高齢者にとっては 、却って不便である。 また、湯を捨てずに回収して使えるのでその面では経済的であるが、最近24 時間風呂などで衛生上の問題点が指摘されているように、湯を繰り返し使用し又 は還流して使用することは衛生上好ましくない。The bathtub disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-308357 has an advantage that it can be bathed in a wheelchair, but it requires additional equipment such as a sliding door and a hot water tank, which makes it expensive. , I need to wait until the bath is filled with hot water because I enter the bathtub nakedly and then pour hot water, and I have to feel cold during the wait unless I warm the bath well. There's a problem. In addition, there is a problem that even after taking a bath, it is only possible to go out after collecting hot water in the hot water tank, which is rather inconvenient for persons with disabilities and the elderly who can take a bath without using a wheelchair. Is. Also, it is economical because it can be collected and used without throwing away the hot water, but as recently pointed out that there are hygiene problems in 24-hour baths, etc., the hot water can be repeatedly used or recycled. It is not hygienic to use.

以下、本考案の実施の形態を図面に基づいて説明する。 図1及び図2は、本考案の浴槽の一例を示す図であり、図1は、浴室の洗い場 とともに示した浴槽の斜視図、図2(a)は浴槽の正面図、図2(b)はそのA −A断面図である。 図1及び図2において、浴槽1は、浴槽本体10のみ又は浴槽本体10と把持 部13とからなる。浴槽本体10の一つの側壁11にはその側壁面において跨ぐ 高さを低くするほぼ矩形状をなす切り欠き部12が設けられている。切り欠き部 12は、この例では、側壁面においてほぼ矩形状をなしている。また、側壁上面 の切り欠き部側付近には、把持部13が設けられ、この例では把手13が設けら れている。切り欠き部12と把手13が設けられているので、入浴時にこの両側 の把手13を把持しながら、切り欠き部12から浴槽1内に出入りするようにす ると、高齢者等でも容易に出入りすることができる。しかも、切り欠き部12だ けが低くなっているので、洗い場で体を洗った湯などが浴槽の中へ入る可能性は 小さく、衛生的である。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 and 2 are views showing an example of a bathtub according to the present invention, FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the bathtub shown together with a bathroom washroom, FIG. 2A is a front view of the bathtub, and FIG. FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line AA. 1 and 2, the bathtub 1 includes only the bathtub body 10 or the bathtub body 10 and the grip portion 13. The side wall 11 of the bathtub body 10 is provided with a notch 12 having a substantially rectangular shape to reduce the height of the side wall surface. In this example, the cutout portion 12 has a substantially rectangular shape on the side wall surface. A grip 13 is provided near the notch on the upper surface of the side wall, and in this example, a grip 13 is provided. Since the notch 12 and the handle 13 are provided, it is easy for the elderly and the like to enter and leave the bathtub 1 through the notch 12 while gripping the handles 13 on both sides when bathing. can do. Moreover, since only the cutout 12 is low, there is little possibility that hot water etc. that washed the body in the washroom will enter the bathtub, which is hygienic.
【0019】 この切り欠き部底面12B の洗い場床面30からの高さHK は、3cm乃至1 0cmとするのが好ましい。切り欠き部底面の高さHK が3cm未満であると、 洗い場2で、体にかけた湯や水が浴槽内に入り込み、浴槽内の湯を汚すことにな るので非衛生的である。 一方、高さHK が10cmを超えると、高齢者等にとっては跨ぎにくくなるの で好ましくない。The height H K of the bottom surface 12 B of the cutout portion from the floor surface 30 of the washing place is preferably 3 cm to 10 cm. If the height H K of the bottom surface of the cutout portion is less than 3 cm, hot water or water splashed on the body enters the bathtub in the washing area 2 and pollutes the hot water in the bathtub, which is unsanitary. On the other hand, if the height H K exceeds 10 cm, it is difficult for the elderly or the like to straddle, which is not preferable.
【0020】 また、切り欠き部底面12B から浴槽本体10の底面14までの深さHB は3 0cm乃至50cmとするのが好ましい。30cm未満であると、体を浸す湯の 深さが浅すぎて体全体を温めることができない。また、浴槽本体10から出ると きは、湯による浮力が働くので、入るときより高くても跨ぎやすいが、それでも 50cmを超えると、跨ぎにくくなるので好ましくない。The depth H B from the bottom surface 12 B of the cutout portion to the bottom surface 14 of the bath body 10 is preferably 30 cm to 50 cm. If it is less than 30 cm, the depth of hot water for bathing the body is too shallow to warm the whole body. Further, when the water comes out of the bathtub main body 10, buoyancy is exerted by the hot water, and therefore it is easy to cross over even if it is higher than when entering, but if it exceeds 50 cm, it becomes difficult to cross over, which is not preferable.
【0021】 把手13は、掌を水平にして把持可能な水平部13G を有し、浴槽本体10の 側壁11上面11U と切り欠き部両側面12A の延長面とで囲まれる部分内に収 まるように設けるのが好ましい。把手13は掌を水平にして把持可能であるから 、それを把持し、体を浮かすようにして、脚を浴槽内へ又は浴槽外へ運べるので 、高齢者等が安心して入出浴することができる。また、把手13は、浴槽本体1 0の側壁上面11U と前記切り欠き部両側面で囲まれる部分内に収まるように設 けられており、側壁上面11U から上方及び切り欠き部両側面12B から内側へ は突出しないので、入出浴に際して安全である。 なお、切り欠き部側面12A 、底面12B の両縁は安全上丸みを持たせておく のが好ましい。また、周知のように、給湯口3が設けられている側と反対側の側 壁25の内周を斜面にしておくと、入浴者の背もたれとして快適に入浴できる。The handle 13 has a horizontal portion 13 G capable of holding the palm horizontally, and is provided in a portion surrounded by the upper surface 11 U of the side wall 11 of the bathtub body 10 and the extension surfaces of the side surfaces 12 A of the cutout portion. It is preferable to install it so that it fits. Since the grip 13 can be held with the palm horizontal, the legs can be carried in and out of the bath by gripping it and lifting the body, so that elderly people can take a bath in peace. . Further, the handle 13 is provided so as to be accommodated within a portion surrounded by the side wall upper surface 11 U of the bathtub body 10 and both side surfaces of the cutout portion, and is located above the side wall upper surface 11 U and both side surfaces 12 of the cutout portion. Since it does not project inward from B , it is safe for bathing. It is preferable that both edges of the side surface 12 A of the cutout portion and the bottom surface 12 B are rounded for safety. Further, as is well known, if the inner circumference of the side wall 25 on the side opposite to the side where the hot water supply port 3 is provided is made sloped, the bather can comfortably take a bath as a backrest.
【0022】 この浴槽1に入るときは、通常の浴槽と同様予め給湯口3から適温の湯を切り 欠き部底面付近まで満たしておいてから入浴できるので、給湯の間寒い思いをす ることはない。しかも、洗い場2からの浴槽1内への出入りは、切り欠き部両側 に設けられた把手13の把持部13G を把持しながら、切り欠き部12を通って 行われるので、高齢者等でも容易に且つ安心して出入りできる。 また、湯面に浮く入浴による湯垢は、入浴の度に切り欠き部12から流出し、 排水孔4によって排出されるので、湯は絶えず清浄に保たれる。When entering the bathtub 1, as with a normal bathtub, hot water of a suitable temperature is filled in advance from the hot water supply port 3 up to the vicinity of the bottom of the notch, so that it is possible to take a bath. Absent. Moreover, out into the bathtub 1 from washing place 2, while gripping the grip portion 13 G of the handle 13 provided in the notches on both sides, since carried out through the notches 12, easily elderly, etc. You can come and go with peace of mind. Further, since the scales of the bath floating on the surface of the bath flow out from the notch 12 and are discharged by the drain holes 4 each time the bath is bathed, the bath is constantly kept clean.
【0023】 上記の例では、浴槽本体10の四つの側壁のうち三つは浴室の壁面に当接して 設置するようにし、正面の側壁に切り欠き部12を設けているが、浴室の壁面に 当接しないように設置し、二つ以上の側壁に切り欠き部を設けてそれぞの側から 入出浴できるようにしたものも本考案に含まれる。 また、切り欠き部側面上部に把手13を設けたものとしたが、把手13を設け ず、切り欠き部側面上部を把持部としてそのまま把持するようにしてもよく、こ の把持部の背面に指掛け溝を設けたものとしてもよい。そして、把手13を設け る場合も把手の種類はこの例に限定されるものではない。In the above example, three of the four side walls of the bathtub body 10 are installed so as to abut against the wall surface of the bathroom, and the notch 12 is provided on the front side wall. The present invention also includes devices that are installed so that they do not come into contact with each other, and that two or more side walls are provided with notches to allow bathing from the respective sides. Further, although the handle 13 is provided on the upper side surface of the cutout portion, the handle 13 may not be provided and the upper side surface of the cutout portion may be directly grasped as a grip portion. A groove may be provided. Also, when the handle 13 is provided, the type of handle is not limited to this example.
【0024】 図3は、本考案の他の例を示す図であり、切り欠き部12を閉塞する閉塞板1 4を設けた例である。図3(a)は、その閉塞板14を閉めた状態、同図(b) は、閉塞板14を開けた状態を示す。 図3(a)において、閉塞板14は、浴槽本体11の切り欠き部12を閉塞す る形状と大きさを有し、浴槽本体10の側壁11の外面に蝶番15によって取り 付けられている。 また、同図(b)に示すように、閉塞板14の浴槽内側上部には閉塞板14を 開閉する際指がかかり易いようにするための指掛け溝16が設けられている。 そして、閉塞板14を上に回動させて閉めたときは、閉塞板14は嵌着手段1 7によって浴槽本体の側壁11に嵌着される。FIG. 3 is a view showing another example of the present invention, which is an example in which a closing plate 14 for closing the cutout portion 12 is provided. FIG. 3A shows a state in which the closing plate 14 is closed, and FIG. 3B shows a state in which the closing plate 14 is opened. In FIG. 3 (a), the closing plate 14 has a shape and size that closes the notch 12 of the bath body 11, and is attached to the outer surface of the side wall 11 of the bath body 10 by a hinge 15. Further, as shown in FIG. 3B, a finger hooking groove 16 is provided in the upper part of the inside of the bathtub of the closing plate 14 so that a finger can be easily caught when opening and closing the closing plate 14. Then, when the closing plate 14 is rotated upward and closed, the closing plate 14 is fitted to the side wall 11 of the bath body by the fitting means 17.
【0025】 図4は、側壁11の切り欠き部12と閉塞板13の関係を示す部分拡大断面図 で、図4(a)は、図3(a)の側壁11のB−B断面図、図4(b)は、図3 (b)のC−C断面図である。 図4(a)において、側壁11の切り欠き部12には閉塞板14が設けられ、 嵌着手段17によって、側壁11に嵌着されている。嵌着手段17はボール17 aと付勢部材17bとで構成され、ボール17aは閉塞板14を閉めたとき側壁 11の切り欠き部側面に設けた嵌合孔に嵌合される。切り欠き部12の側面は段 状に形成され、段部18,19には水密部材Sが取り付けられている。FIG. 4 is a partially enlarged sectional view showing the relationship between the notch 12 of the side wall 11 and the closing plate 13. FIG. 4A is a sectional view taken along the line BB of the side wall 11 of FIG. 3A. FIG. 4B is a sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. In FIG. 4A, a blocking plate 14 is provided in the notch 12 of the side wall 11 and is fitted to the side wall 11 by a fitting means 17. The fitting means 17 is composed of a ball 17a and a biasing member 17b, and the ball 17a is fitted into a fitting hole formed on the side surface of the cutout portion of the side wall 11 when the closing plate 14 is closed. The side surface of the cutout portion 12 is formed in a step shape, and the watertight member S is attached to the step portions 18 and 19.
【0026】 図4(b)において、閉塞板14は、浴槽本体外側に開けた状態が示されてお り、切り欠き部の底面及び閉塞板14の底面も、ともに段状に形成され、段部1 9には水密部材Sが設けられている。In FIG. 4B, the closing plate 14 is shown opened to the outside of the bath body, and the bottom surface of the cutout portion and the bottom surface of the closing plate 14 are both stepped. A watertight member S is provided on the portion 19.
【0027】 この浴槽1に入るときは、先ず図3(b)、図4(b)のように閉塞板14を 指掛け溝16などを利用して外方へ引くと、閉塞板14を開放することができる 。引っ張る力は、嵌着手段17の付勢部材17bによって規定される所定の力以 上であればよい。 閉塞板17を開けた後、切り欠き部12を通って浴槽内に入る。浴槽内に脚を 入れた後、閉塞板14を閉めると、湯面WU は把持部下面20まで上昇可能とな り、たっぷりとした湯に浸ることができる。When entering the bathtub 1, first, as shown in FIGS. 3B and 4B, the closing plate 14 is opened by pulling the closing plate 14 outward using the finger groove 16 or the like. be able to . The pulling force may be more than a predetermined force defined by the biasing member 17b of the fitting means 17. After opening the closing plate 17, it enters the bathtub through the notch 12. When the closing plate 14 is closed after the legs are put in the bathtub, the surface W U of the bath can be raised to the lower surface 20 of the grip portion and can be immersed in a large amount of hot water.
【0028】 切り欠き部12と閉塞板14とは、水密部材Sによってシールされるので、湯 は外に流出しない。 浴槽外に出るときは、把手13などを使って立ち上がり、湯面WU が切り欠き 部底面12B 以下に下がったところで閉塞板14を開けて出るようにすれば湯が 流出することはない。Since the notch 12 and the closing plate 14 are sealed by the watertight member S, hot water does not flow out. When going out of the bathtub, the hot water does not flow out by standing up using the handle 13 or the like, and opening the closing plate 14 when the hot water surface W U has dropped below the bottom surface 12 B of the cutout portion.
【0029】 以上のように、入出浴の際は、閉塞板14を開けるので、高さの低い切り欠き 部底面12B を跨ぐだけで容易に入出浴でき、入浴している間は、湯面が上がっ ても閉塞板14を閉めておけば、湯が流出しないので経済的である。 一人の人の入浴が終わるときには、浴槽内で立ち上がる前に、閉塞板14を開 ければ、湯面WU が切り欠き部底面12B よりも高いので湯の表面の湯垢はそと に流れ出て、湯が清浄になる。As described above, since the closing plate 14 is opened at the time of taking a bath, it is possible to easily take a bath by just straddling the bottom surface 12 B of the cutout portion having a low height. Even if the temperature rises, if the closing plate 14 is closed, hot water does not flow out, which is economical. When the bathing of one person is over, if the closing plate 14 is opened before standing up in the bathtub, the hot water surface W U is higher than the bottom surface 12 B of the cutout portion, and the scale of the hot water flows out to the outside. , Hot water becomes clean.
【0030】 上記の例において、閉塞板14は、蝶番15によって浴槽本体1に開閉可能に 取付けたが、これに限定されるものではなく、切り欠き部底面付近に回転軸を設 け、この回転軸によって開閉する構造としてもよい。 また、嵌着手段17はボール17aと付勢部材17bとからなるものとしたが 、これに限定されるものではなく、閉塞板14を適宜の弾性を有する合成樹脂で 構成するなどにより、閉塞板14自体の弾性を利用して嵌着するようにしてもよ い。 さらに、閉塞板14と浴槽本体の側壁11との間の水密化は、段部18,19 を設け、これに水密部材Sを取り付けるものとしたがこれに限定されるものでは なく、上記閉塞板14自体の弾性を利用して嵌着する場合、閉塞板14の側面及 び底面に連続的に嵌着用凸条を設け、浴槽本体側壁11のこれに対応する位置に 凹溝を設け水密に嵌合するようにしてもよい。In the above example, the closing plate 14 was attached to the bathtub body 1 so as to be openable and closable by the hinges 15, but the present invention is not limited to this. The structure may be opened and closed by a shaft. Further, the fitting means 17 is composed of the ball 17a and the biasing member 17b, but it is not limited to this, and the closing plate 14 is made of a synthetic resin having appropriate elasticity. You may make it fit using the elasticity of 14 itself. Further, the watertightness between the closing plate 14 and the side wall 11 of the bathtub body is provided with the step portions 18 and 19 and the watertight member S is attached thereto, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the above-mentioned closing plate is provided.
