Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Technical field] The present invention has a lighting device housed inside a cylinder whose upper part is a light-shielding part and whose lower part is a light-shielding part, so that its location can be clearly recognized and it can be prevented from falling. Concerning handrails that help prevent accidents.

[Background technology]

For example, handrails are installed in toilet rooms and the like used by people with relatively impaired legs, such as the elderly, to prevent falls. However, with conventional handrails, there is no lighting means on the handrail itself, and in the event of a power outage or forgetting to turn on the lights in the toilet room, etc., the handrail's location becomes unclear, and especially in the case of a fall, the handrail may fall. There was a risk of causing an accident.

[Purpose of invention]

An object of the present invention is to provide a handrail that can solve the above-mentioned problems based on the fact that a lighting fixture is housed in a cylindrical body.

[Disclosure of invention]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

In the figure, the handrail 1 has fitting parts 3, 3 on a pair of supports 2A, 2B fixed at a distance, and a cylindrical body 6 housing a lighting fixture 5 between the fitting parts 3, 3. It is being bridged.

Further, in this embodiment, the handrail 1 is attached to the side wall W of the toilet room as shown in FIG.
B is provided with a push button 9 for a doorbell.

The base frames 11A, 11B have rectangular cylindrical base frames 11A, 11B with chamfered corners on the outer periphery and are spaced concentrically apart from each other.
It is screwed to the side wall W by mounting portions 14, 14, which have rectangular mounting plates 13, 13 at their rear ends extending rearward from the back surface and having mounting holes 12 formed at each corner.

The base frame 11A of the support base 2A has the hollow space 7 formed inside thereof, and is provided with a ratchet-like vent hole 15 consisting of a large number of elongated holes on the front and upper and lower surfaces.
The opening 18 at the outer end is freely opened and closed by a lid 17 provided with a convex portion 16 that fits into the opening 18 somewhat tightly.

The base frame 11B of the support base 2B has its outer end closed with a side plate 21, and a push button switch for operating a doorbell in another room is provided inside the base frame 11B. It stands out.

The base frames 11A, 11B have opening ends 23, 23 on the inner surfaces facing each other, which are shielded from the opening end 23 using a shielding plate 24, so that recesses 25, 25 are formed on each inner surface. forms the fitting portion 3, and a cylinder 6 is spanned between the fitting portions 3, 3.

In this embodiment, the cylinder 6 forms a grip that extends horizontally along the wall surface, and is a combination of a gutter-like body 10A made of an opaque material and a gutter-like body 10B made of a transparent material and having a U-shaped cross section. , vertical pieces 26, 26 raised from each inner edge of the gutter-like body 10B are fitted into the inner surface of the upper gutter-like body 10A, and protrusions 27, 2 formed at both ends.
7 is inserted into and fixed in the fitting parts 3, 3, and is spanned between the fitting parts 3, 3.

Further, the gutter-like body 10A connects the transparent portion s to the gutter-like body 1.
0B forms a transparent portion c, and a lighting fixture 5 made of, for example, a fluorescent light is housed inside.

In addition, the lighting fixture 5 has a function that automatically starts in the event of a power outage.
An emergency power supply device capable of lighting the lighting fixture 5 is provided.

By turning on the lighting fixture 5, the handrail 1 can be illuminated from below through the transparent portion c. In addition, by pressing the emergency push button 9, you can ring the doorbell and notify others.
The air freshener can be stored in the empty space 7 by opening.

Furthermore, the lighting fixture 5 is lit by the emergency power supply even during a power outage.

[Effect of idea]

Since the handrail 1 of the present invention houses the illumination device inside the cylinder, its existence and position are clear, and even in an emergency, the cylinder can be instantly recognized and grasped. Prevents direct light from lighting equipment from entering the field of vision to prevent dazzling at night.

It can also have many effects, such as being able to double as a lighting fixture for illuminating the area below.

Note that the cylindrical body 6 is integrally formed using a transparent material,
The upper transparent hole portion s can be modified in various ways, such as by pasting a sheet made of an opaque material on the upper portion or by capping it with a gutter-like metal piece.
