Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention relates to a toilet chair and a toilet bowl used for persons with physical disabilities.

(Prior Art) In conventional toilet chairs and toilet bowls of this type, a toilet seat is provided in the center of the seat, and a toilet container is placed below it. The patient moves his body from the bed to a chair and defecates while sitting on the seat. Additionally, armrests are generally provided on both sides of the seat, similar to ordinary chairs, or there are no armrests at all.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, while the conditions of people who use toilet chairs vary, the conventional toilet chairs described above are not configured to cope with this. There have been problems in that it is sometimes impossible to move one's body to the chair, it places a heavy burden on the body, lacks safety, requires assistance from a caregiver, and is not easy to use.

For example, conventional commode chairs do not have a height adjustment function, so the seat surface of the chair is often not at the same height as the surface of the bed mat. It was difficult to move him to a chair and sit him down.

In addition, if a commode chair with armrests on both sides of the seat is placed next to the bed, the chair should be placed against the bed side to ensure that people who cannot stand up on their own will be able to move to the chair. Although they are arranged in various directions,
In many cases, it is not easy to move the body into the chair because the user is forced to make a half or full rotation of the body and the armrests on both sides get in the way.

In this case, when used by a person who can stand up by himself,
The side of the chair can be placed facing the bed. However, unlike able-bodied people, people with physical disabilities generally need to move their center of gravity forward and lift their hips when getting up from a chair, whereas in conventional chairs, the front end of the armrest is Since the seat is placed at a position that almost coincides with the front end of the seat surface, the user cannot use the armrests for support to move the center of gravity of the body forward, and therefore cannot stand up from the chair.

Furthermore, these chairs are usually not fixed to the bed and are unstable, so if a person who cannot move without holding onto the handles uses the armrests as a handle to move, there is a high risk of falling. .

Additionally, commode chairs that do not have armrests on either side of the seat can be placed with the sides of the chair facing the bed, making it relatively easy to move your body to the chair; For people who cannot move without it, the armrest cannot be used as a handle for movement, and the backrest is located further away, which is inconvenient.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems of the conventional technology, and it is possible to easily move the body to the chair and stand up from the chair, and it can be adjusted for ease of use according to the user's condition. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a toilet chair and a toilet bowl that can be used for toilets.

(Means for Achieving the Object) In order to achieve the above object, the toilet chair of the present invention includes a leg, a butt support member supported by the leg and having a defecation hole approximately in the center, a back support member provided near the rear end of the member; a short handle provided on the rear side of either the left or right end of the butt support member, which is shorter than the full length of the end; The toilet of the present invention includes a full handle provided over the entire length of the other of the left and right end portions, and an auxiliary handle protruding from the buttrest member and provided in front of the full handle. A fecal container is placed below the defecation hole.

(Example) Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a toilet chair and toilet bowl according to the present invention. Reference numeral 1 in the figure indicates the leg part of the chair, and leg part 1 is the four leg members 1.
Consists of a. The height of the leg member 1a can be adjusted by, for example, a known method such as screwing. The two rear leg members 1a extend upward and constitute a backrest 2.

Further, the leg members 1a are connected by screws of the horizontal member 3. A plurality of screw holes for screwing are provided at predetermined positions in the vertical direction, and by adjusting the screwing positions, the height of the horizontal member 3 with respect to the leg portion 1 can be adjusted.

Further, the leg portion 1 is configured to be removably fixed to an arbitrary position on a bed or the like by a mounting device (not shown).

A butt member 4 is placed on and fixed to the horizontal member 3.

Therefore, the height of the buttrest member 4 can also be adjusted with respect to the leg portion 1. A defecation hole 5 is provided approximately in the center of the buttrest member 4, and a stool container 6 is provided at a position corresponding to the defecation hole 5 on the lower surface of the buttrest member 4. Further, a sheet member 7 is placed on the buttrest member 4 so as to cover the entire surface of the buttrest member 4, and this seat member 7 can be opened and closed centering on the rear end of the buttrest member 4 by, for example, a hinge. There is. That is, the seat member 7 can be opened when used as a toilet bowl, and can be used as a chair by closing the seat member 7 when not in use.

At the left end of the butt support member 4, there is a substantially U-shaped short handle 8 located approximately in the center from the rear end, followed by a vertical portion 8a.
are provided by screwing them to the backrest part 2 and the front vertical part 8b to the horizontal member 3, respectively. On the other hand, a long handle 9 is provided at the right end of the buttrest member 4 and is screwed to the upper part of the backrest part 2 and the leg member 1a. The long handle 9 is integrally formed with a full handle portion 9a extending over the entire length of the butt support member 4 in the front-rear direction, and an auxiliary handle portion 9b that projects and extends forward of the butt support member 4. The short handle 8 and the long handle 9 can be installed at either the left or right end by appropriately providing screw holes for screw fastening.

Next, the operation of the toilet chair and toilet bowl having the above configuration will be explained.
