LL to 11 The invention is summarized in the claims.

- Referring to FIG. 1, in the assistance device of the present invention, the suspension device 8 for carrying the assistant M is moved, for example, the assistance device M
for example, from room 1 (for example, the bedroom) to another room 2 (for example, the toilet).

As shown in FIG. 3, a drive means 31 is provided for opening and closing the partition (sliding door 15) between the room 1 and another room 2.

This drive means 31 is preferably operated by switch means 40.41 provided in each room 1.2.

Alternatively, the drive means 30 is preferably operated by a switch means 10 provided on the hanger 8, for example.

LJL When the caregiver M moves from room 1 to another room 2, the drive means 30 opens the partition. After passing, close the partition as necessary.

Branch-LJL Please refer to FIG.

The house has rooms 1 to 5. Room 1 is a bedroom, room 2 is a toilet, room 3 is a bathtub, room 4 is a living room, and room 5 is a kitchen. House ceiling (not shown)
A guide rail 6.7 is set at the. This guide rail 6 is provided between the chambers 4.5. Guide rails 7 are provided in rooms 5, 1.2.3.

The hanging tool 8 is for hanging the assistant M. This hanging device 8 is movable along the rail 6.7. To move the hanging tool 8, an actuating device W1 (not shown) is used. Further, a lifting device 9 is used to raise and lower the hanging tool 8. The hand switch device 10 can operate the lifting device 9.

A sliding door 14 is provided between the rooms 1.5. part m
A sliding door 15 is provided between 1 and 2. Room 2.
A sliding door 16 is provided between 3 and 3. A sliding door 17 is also provided between rooms 4.5. these sliding doors 1
4 to 17 are substantially similar.

See Figure 2. Of the sliding doors 14 to 17, sliding door 15 is representatively shown in FIG. The sliding door 15 can be opened and closed horizontally in the door frame 20. The other sliding doors 15 to 17 can be opened and closed in the same manner. A rubber sheet 23. is attached to the door stop 21.22 of the door frame 20.
24 is pasting. The sliding door 15 may be made of wood or glass, for example.

Limit switches 25 and 26 are attached to the bottom of the door frame 20. This limit switch 25.26 is provided inside the rubber sheet 23.24. For this reason, the sliding door 15 directly hits the limit switch 25 or 26 (the limit switch 25 or 26 is
3.24 is protected.

The motor 31 is a normal motor used in household power sources. The motor 31 is located at the bottom of the sliding door 15. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, it is installed under the floor 32.

WIt33 is provided on the floor 32. A part of a gear 34 passes through this groove 33, and this gear 34 meshes with a rack 35. This rack 35 is fitted into and fixed to the lower end 36 of the sliding door 15. The length of the rack 35 is approximately equal to the width of the sliding door 15 in FIG. Thereby, by rotating the motor 31 in the normal or reverse direction, the sliding door 15 can be opened in the six directions of the arrows or closed in the direction opposite to the six directions of the arrows via the gear 34. However, sliding door 15 is limit switch 2
5, the motor 31 stops. Therefore, no unnecessary load is applied to the motor 31. On the other hand, sliding door 1
5 opens in the six directions of the arrow, the sliding door 15 hits the limit switch 26. As a result, the motor 31 is stopped and no unnecessary load is applied to the motor 31.

The motor 31 can be operated in forward or reverse rotation by either one of the switch means 40, 41. Returning to FIG. 1, the switch means 40 is provided on the bed 50 side of the room 1. Further, the switch means 41 is attached to the wall of the room 2. Similarly, a switch means 42 is provided on the wall of the room 3. Other division 4
．． 5 are also each provided with switch means 43,44.

The switch means 41, 42 can open and close the sliding door 16. Switch means 43, 44 are sliding doors 17
can be opened and closed. Generally, the switch means 44, 40 can open and close the sliding door 14.

More preferably, the hand switch device 10 of the hanger 8 has a plurality of switches that can open and close the sliding doors 14, 15, 16, and 17 separately.

When using it, for example, caregiver M should sit on bed 5 in room 1.
As an example, a case will be explained in which a need arises to move to room 2 when the user is sleeping in bed at room 2.

The caregiver M who is sleeping on the bed gets on the hanging tool 8 and operates the hanging tool 8 to move from the room 1 to the room m2.

At this time, the caregiver opens the sliding door 15 by pressing the switch means 40 or the switch on the hand switch device 10. Then, move from room 1 to room 2 using the hanger 8. At that time, if necessary, the user operates the switch means 4 of the hand switch W110 to close the sliding door 15.

After finishing his business in the room 2, the user presses the switch 41 or the switch 10 in the room 2 to open the sliding door 15'. Then, by operating the switch on the handheld switch device 10, the hanger 8 is moved from the room 2 to the room 1 and returned to the bed 50. Then, the user operates the switch means 40 or the switch device of the hand-held switch device i10 to open the sliding door 15 again. Then, the caregiver M lies down on the bed 50 again.

By the way, in such a case, the person who takes care of the person (not shown)
When opening and closing the sliding door 15, the switch means 40 and 41 are used.

Further, as described above, when the caregiver M himself closes the sliding door 15, he uses the switch means 40, 41 or the switch of the hand switch device fi10.

However, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments. In addition to the sliding doors 14 to 17 shown in the drawings, the types of partitions in this invention include hinged doors, vertically movable shutters, revolving doors, and the like.

Furthermore, the rail 6.7 is provided with switch means. As a result, when the hanger 8 approaches any one of the sliding doors 14 to 17, one of the sliding doors 14 to 17 opens, and after passing through, the driving means may be operated so as to close it.

11. The assistance device of this invention is constructed as described above. This invention has the following effects.

Since a driving means for opening and closing partitions between one room and another room is provided, the effort of the person taking care of the caregiver is reduced, and the caregivers can also open and close partitions such as sliding doors.
