Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Technical Field The present invention relates to an anchoring device for a wheelchair, and particularly to an anchoring device for a wheelchair suitable for dental treatment.

Prior Art Medical procedures such as dental treatment are often performed on patients in wheelchairs. In this case, there is relatively little problem if the patient can be moved to the treatment chair, but even then, the movement may place a burden on the patient, or it may take time to move between the treatment chair and the wheelchair before and after treatment. There is a problem in that it requires a lot of time and it is not possible to perform efficient treatment.

In recent years, with the increase in the elderly population, more and more elderly people are using wheelchairs, and it has become necessary for dentists to visit and provide dental treatment to these elderly people. The demand for home-visit dental treatment for people, including those who must use wheelchairs, is increasing.

It would be convenient for such people if they could deal with this and receive treatment while remaining in a wheelchair. It is not impossible to think of a wheelchair suitable for dental treatment, but since such a wheelchair is not needed on a daily basis, if it is possible to use a device that can be attached to a wheelchair for treatment, it would be possible to use a wheelchair instead of a regular wheelchair. It is convenient because you can perform dental treatment while riding.

Figures 7 and 8 show a wheelchair head device made under these circumstances. Figure 7 is a perspective view from the front, and Figure 8 is a perspective view of the back. 51 is a wheelchair, 52 is a backrest, 53 is a side pipe,
54 is the back crest of the Anto tool, 55 is the Anto stand,
56 is a mounting portion, and 57 is a fixing screw. To attach the Anto equipment to the wheelchair, attach it to the backrest 52 of the wheelchair.
The backrest 54 of the safety tool is placed on top of the backrest 54, and the mounting part 56 fixed to the upper part of the backrest 54 is straddled over the upper part of the backrest 52 of the wheelchair and fixed by tightening with a fixing screw 57. The headrest 55 is attached to the attachment part 56 so that its height can be adjusted.

Since the above-mentioned cephalic device is removable from the wheelchair, it is possible to treat a patient in a general wheelchair by using the device.

By the way, the backrest 52 of a wheelchair is usually made of a flexible material such as cloth or vinyl leather, so if a slightly hard backrest of a headrest is placed on top of it, the backrest becomes unstable, resulting in the above-mentioned problem. Such cephalic devices make it difficult to stabilize the patient during treatment, making treatment difficult.

Purpose This invention was created in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and was created with the purpose of providing a structure that allows for extremely stable attachment of a removable safety device to a wheelchair. It is.

Structure In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a safety device for a wheelchair which has a safety platform at the upper part of the backrest part and is detachably attached to the backrest of the wheelchair. The wheelchair is characterized in that at least a part of the width is larger than the width between both side pipes at the rear of the wheelchair. The present invention will be described below based on examples.

Figures 1 and 2 are diagrams for explaining one embodiment of the present invention, where Figure 1 is a perspective view seen from the front, and Figure 2 is a perspective view of the head safety tool in Figure 1. In the figure, 11 is the wheelchair, 12 is the backrest of the wheelchair, 13 is the side pipe, 14 is the backrest part of the safety equipment, 15 is the safety seat whose height is adjustable, 16 is the mounting part, and 17 18 is a fixing screw, and 18 is a hole for attaching an accessory. The safety device shown in FIG. 2 is used by being attached to a wheelchair as shown in FIG. 1, and the attachment is the same as that described in FIGS. 6 and 7. However, in the present invention, the overhanging parts 14a are provided on both sides of the backrest part 14, so that the width of the backrest part is made larger than the width between the two side pipes 13 of the wheelchair. Therefore, the patient's load on the backrest is not carried by the flexible backrest of the wheelchair, but is carried by the strong side pipes, making it possible to stabilize the upper body of the patient who is leaning against the backrest. can.

Dental treatment requires an illuminating light to identify the inside of the oral cavity, but it is not easy to obtain this light source when the patient travels to perform dental treatment.

Figure 3 shows a lighting fixture as an example of an accessory that can meet the above requirements.
is a shaft, which is rotatably inserted into the attachment hole 18 of the safety tool. A flexible shaft 32 is attached to the shaft 31, and a battery-powered lighting device (flashlight) 34 can be attached to the end 33 of the flexible shaft 32.
A flashlight 33 is attached to 3, and the shaft 31 is inserted into the hole 18 for use.

4 and 5 are views showing other embodiments of the present invention, in which the backrest 41
has an overhanging portion 41a as in the above-mentioned embodiment, and a safe head portion 41b is integrally provided on the upper portion of the overhanging portion 41a. In order to attach the backrest to the backrest of the wheelchair, an attachment part similar to that of the above embodiment may be provided, but a band 42 attached with, for example, magic tape (registered trademark) to the lower part of the backrest may be used in combination with the attachment part or alone. It may also be possible to attach it to the wheelchair using the magic tape 42. In this case, a magic tape 41c is attached to the back of the backrest 41 of the wheelchair as shown in FIG.
The pillow 43 is detachably attached using 1c. FIG. 6 is a detailed view of the pillow 43. As shown in the figure, the pillow 43 is attached to one end of cloth, vinyl leather 44, etc., and a magic tape 44a is attached to the back side of the other end of the cloth, vinyl leather 44, etc. Now, these magic tapes 41c and 44a
Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 5, the pillow 43
can be mounted at any desired height.

Effects As is clear from the above explanation, the present invention provides a stable wheelchair device by making at least a portion of both sides of the backrest of the device larger than the distance between both side pipes of the wheelchair. There is an effect that can be done.
