  The bathing aid main body 1 is placed on a chair 200 having the surface members 11, 12, 13 as the front surface and protruded from the bathtub 100, and the person to be cared is seated with the legs facing the lower surface member 13, shoulders The part support belt 3 and the body part support belt 4 are fixed by inserting the respective connection plugs 31 and 41 into the connection sockets 32 and 42. Since the shoulder support belt 3 is fixed to the upper surface member 11 slightly to the left of the center vertical line, when the bathing aid main body 1 is attached to the cared person, the right waist of the cared person is seen from the right shoulder. Therefore, the shoulder support belt 3 and the torso support belt 4 are attached to the care recipient in the same manner as a car seat belt (FIG. 4).

  Next, the shoulder support belt 2 provided in a pair is hung on the shoulder of the cared person, and the bathing aid main body 1 is mounted in such a manner that the cared person carries the backpack on the back (FIG. 5).

  Next, in order to guide the cared person to the bathtub, the shoulder conveyor belt 2 is passed through the armpit of the cared person and pulled backward to attach the shoulder conveyor belt 2 to the cared person without slack. Here, the caregiver holds the connecting portion of the branch connection belt 20 and lifts the bathing aid main body 1 as a whole, moves on the chair 200, and guides the care receiver into the bathtub 100 (FIG. 6).

  When the bathing assisting device main body 1 is lifted by grasping the connecting portion of the branching connecting belt 20, the substantially four corners of the bathing assisting device main body 1 are lifted. If it is necessary to support the body depending on the degree of disability of the cared person, when grasping the connecting portion of the branch connecting belt 20, if the shoulder belt 2 is held together, the shoulder transport is performed. Since the slack of the belt 2 is eliminated and the cared person can be securely fixed to the bathing aid main body 1, the cared person can be guided to the bathtub 100 in a stable state.

  The caregiver performs bathing care such as washing the body of the care recipient outside the bathtub 100, or the caregiver himself enters the bathtub to take bath care. Further, depending on the type of bathtub 100, there is a structure in which the side is a wall and a caregiver cannot enter, and in this case, the chair 200 is placed away from the side edge of the bathtub 100. If a space for a person to enter between the side edge and the chair 200 is formed, the caregiver himself can enter the bath and take a bath together when the care recipient is guided to the bathtub 100.
