Description

  The present invention relates to a lifting device for lifting a care recipient in bathing care.

  Conventionally, various techniques for bathing care have been proposed. For example, a technique has been proposed in which a cared person is lifted using a lift such as a crane or a lift and placed in a bathtub as it is.

  In consideration of the case where it is difficult to secure a space for installing an elevator, such as a bathroom in a home, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a portable (portable) bathing care product. According to this, the bathing care article includes a bathing assisting device main body made of a flexible sheet-like member, a pair of shoulder conveyor belts attached thereto, a shoulder support belt, a trunk support belt, and a branch connection belt.

  In use, the cared person is seated on the bathing aid main body, and then the coupling plug of the trunk support belt is inserted into the coupling socket. Next, the shoulder support belt is applied to the cared person, and the shoulder conveyor belt is hung on both shoulders. The caregiver grasps the connecting portion of the branch connection belt and lifts the bathing aid main body to guide the care recipient to the bathtub.

  By the way, if the seating surface of bathing care goods is comprised from a flexible member, the said seating surface will deform | transform following a cared person's weight and attitude | position, and a form cannot be maintained. In order to maintain a certain posture, the cared person's muscular strength is required. When the cared person is an elderly person, the burden is large.

  That is, the burden on the cared person is smaller in the “branch bench type” having a stable form than the “hammock type” which is generally flexible as a seating surface. However, the latter causes problems during cleaning after use.

  For example, from the viewpoint of hygiene, it is preferable that the bathing care article is cleaned after its use. However, the swing bench type bathing care product includes a rigid member such as a plate-like member, and it is difficult to wash it with a washing machine or the like (the washing machine may be damaged by the rigid member). Therefore, caregivers or the like perform washing by washing with water or the like outdoors, leading to a burden on caregivers.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a hanging device for bathing care that is a swing bench type with a stable form and that can be easily cleaned after use.

  The present invention relates to a bathing care hanger. The suspension includes a car member made of a flexible member and a seat plate member made of a rigid material separable from the car member.

  In the above device, it is preferable that a slot for guiding the seat plate member is formed in the car member.

  In the above device, the car member is preferably sewn from a plurality of judo belts.

  ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, it becomes possible to provide the hanging tool for bathing care which is a swing bench type with a stable form and can be easily washed after use.

It is a perspective view which illustrates the hanging tool for bathing care concerning this embodiment. It is a perspective view explaining attachment and detachment of the seat board member with respect to a cage member. It is a perspective view explaining the slot provided in the seat board member. It is a perspective view explaining attachment and detachment of a surrounding belt.

<Overall configuration>
FIG. 1 illustrates a bathing care hanger 10 according to this embodiment. The bathing care lifting device 10 includes a cage member 12 made of a flexible member and a seat plate member 14 made of a rigid material. The hanging care implement 10 for bathing care may be large enough to accommodate one cared person, for example, a height (z-axis direction in FIG. 1) of 60 cm or more and 90 cm or less, and a width (FIG. 1 x-axis direction) of 30 cm or more. It is formed to have a size of 50 cm or less and a depth (in FIG. 1 y-axis direction) of 30 cm or more and 50 cm or less. 1, 2, and 4, the cage member 12 that is originally a flexible member is expanded in the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis directions for ease of explanation.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the seat plate member 14 can be separated from the car member 12. By doing in this way, it becomes possible to wash the car member 12 in a washing machine, and the burden of washing the bathing care hanger 10 can be reduced.

  Also, the separated seat plate member 14 is a plate material having a thickness of 1 mm or more and 10 mm or less, a width of 25 cm or more and 35 cm or less, and a depth of about 20 cm or more and 30 cm or less, and is approximately the same size as a cutting board. Cleaning in a bathroom is possible.

  Furthermore, since the car member 12 is composed of a flexible member, it can be folded and stored when not in use. For example, the car member 12 in a state of being folded into a bag or the like having a width or depth that can accommodate the seat plate member 14 can be stored together. This makes it possible to store the bathing care hanger 10 in a small space.

<Details of each configuration>
The seat plate member 14 is a rigid member that constitutes the seat surface of the bathing care lifting device 10, and is made of, for example, a resin plate material such as acrylic or plastic. Further, if the seat plate member 14 protrudes from the car member 12 when attached to the car member 12, there is a risk of damaging the back of the care receiver sitting on the bathing care hanger 10. Therefore, in order to accommodate the end portion of the seat plate member 14 in the bottom surface portion 16 of the car member 12, it is preferable that the seat plate member 14 is configured to be slightly smaller than the area of the bottom surface portion 16. . For example, the depth of the seat plate member 14 is preferably shorter than the depth of the bottom surface portion 16 of the car member 12.

  The car member 12 is made of a flexible member that can be cleaned. The car member 12 is formed by sewing a cloth, for example. In order to reduce the weight and quickly dry after washing, the cage member 12 is preferably formed in a net shape having a plurality of gaps.

  Moreover, it is suitable for the cage member 12 to be comprised from the cloth provided with sufficient intensity | strength so that it may become a thing suitable for a care receiver. For this reason, the car member 12 is sewn from, for example, a plurality of judo belts. According to the All Japan Judo Federation, the tensile strength of the judo belt is determined to be 2200 N or more, and the use of such a strength material for the car member 12 is sufficient to support the cared person. Strength is obtained.

  Furthermore, by using the judo belt, which is a general-purpose product, as a material for the bathing care hanger 10, the manufacturing cost of the bathing care hanger 10 can be reduced as compared with the case of sewing from a dedicated product. The hanging care device 10 for bathing care according to the present embodiment is intended for widespread use in ordinary households, and can be sold at a low price that can be purchased in ordinary households.

  In addition to the strength of the judo belt itself, it is preferable that the strength of the stitched portion is ensured when sewing the judo belts together. For example, when sewing judo belts, not only around the edges of the overlapped parts (□ -shaped sewing), but also by sewing the sewing thread into the intersecting diagonal (X-shaped), sufficient strength of the stitched parts can be obtained .

  The car member 12 includes a bottom surface portion 16, an enclosure band 18, support bands 20A, 20B, and 20C and arch bands 22A and 22B.

  The bottom surface portion 16 is formed by sewing a plurality of judo belts in a lattice shape, and as shown in FIG. 2, five judo belts passed in the width direction (the x-axis direction in FIG. 2) and the depth direction (see FIG. 5 judo belts passed in the 2y-axis direction). Sewing thread is sewn in a square and diagonal shape at each intersection.

  Further, a slot 24 for guiding the seat plate member 14 (in which the seat plate member 14 is inserted) is formed in the bottom surface portion 16. As shown in FIG. 3, the slot 24 has a structure in which a front surface portion (front side of the drawing) of the car member 12 is opened and closed on both side surface portions and back surface portions. The slot 24 is also preferably composed of a judo belt.

  Returning to FIG. 1, an encircling band 18 that is spaced in the height direction (z-axis direction in the drawing) from the bottom surface portion 16 and is provided in all directions is provided. The encircling band 18, the arch bands 22A and 22B, and the support band 20A , 20B, 20C are sewn together.

  The enclosure 18 has a handrail function for preventing the cared person who is seated in the bathing care hanger 10 from falling. As shown in FIG. 4, the enclosure band 18 is provided with a detachable member such as a hook-and-loop fastener 26. When the cared person is to be seated on the bathing care hanger 10, the hook-and-loop fastener 26 is removed and the front side (front side of the drawing) of the enclosure 18 is opened.

  If the enclosure 18 is provided at an excessively high position, the care recipient may fall through the enclosure 18 and fall from the bathing care hanger 10. For this reason, it is preferable that the lengths of the supporting bands 20A, 20B, and 20C that connect the bottom surface portion 16 and the surrounding band 18 are 30 cm or more and 50 cm or less.

  Each of the support bands 20A, 20B, and 20C is a band extending in the height direction from the bottom surface portion 16 to the enclosure band 18, and is provided for the care recipient to grasp and balance.

  The arch bands 22 </ b> A and 22 </ b> B are arch-shaped bands that extend from one side surface to the other side surface of the bottom surface portion 16. The caregiver lifts the suspender 10 for bathing care by grabbing and lifting the arch bands 22A and 22B.

  FIG. 5 illustrates how the caregivers 30 </ b> A to 30 </ b> D lift (lift) the cared person 32 using the bathing care hanger 10. In this example, four caregivers 30 </ b> A to 30 </ b> D are shown, but the number of caregivers can be variously changed according to the weight of the care recipient, the muscle strength of the caregiver, and the like.

  Caregivers 30A to 30D grasp the arch bands 22A and 22B and lift them vertically upward. At this time, the cared person 32 holds the support belts 20A and 20B and balances them. Furthermore, since the seat plate member 14 made of a rigid material is inserted into the slot 24 of the bottom surface portion 16, the seat surface shape is stable. Thereby, the posture of the cared person 32 is stabilized.

  At the time of bathing of the cared person, the caregivers 30A to 30D are arranged two by two across the bathtub, and the bathing care equipment 10 and the cared person 32 are lowered to the bathtub. Also, when taking a bath, the bathing care hanger 10 and the care recipient 32 are pulled up. The used bathing care hanger 10 after use is separated into a car member 12 and a seat plate member 14, the former is washed in a washing machine, and the latter is washed in a kitchen, a washroom, a bathroom, and the like. The car member 12 after washing is hung on a hanger or the like and dried, and the seat plate member 14 is dried by draining water. Thereafter, the car member 12 is folded and stored together with the seat plate member 14 in a bag or the like.

  In the above-described embodiment, the car member 12 has been described as including only a flexible member, but the present invention is not limited to this form. For example, the car member 12 may include a rigid member as long as it can be washed in a washing machine and then folded, and the car member 12 includes, for example, a rivet for fastening judo belts together. Also good.
