DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a care device for assisting physically disabled persons and bedridden patients with their 71 movements.

Traditionally, when physically disabled or bedridden patients perform activities necessary for daily life, such as washing, toileting, and bathing, the physically disabled or sick person is transferred from a bed to a wheelchair, and a wheelchair is used. After the patient has moved to the desired location, if necessary, the patient must be lowered from the center bar to perform the necessary movements, and then moved back to the bed using a hand chair, which is very inconvenient. . Moreover, when taking a bath, for example, it is necessary to move a physically disabled or sick person from a wheelchair to a bathtub using either manual effort or a lifting device, which requires a great deal of effort.

The present invention was developed in view of these circumstances, and is capable of assisting physically disabled and sick people with the movements necessary for daily life, such as washing, defecating, and bathing, with extremely little effort. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a nursing care device that achieves the following.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. First, in FIG. Used to assist with necessary movements.

The nursing care device 1 includes a support 3 erected in the vicinity of a sitting position, for example, a bed 2, of a person with a physical disability, and a pivot arm 4 supported rotatably around the axis of the support 3 at the upper part of the support 3. , lifting means 5 provided at the tip of the swing arm 4
and a plurality of daily utensils, such as a toilet bowl 6, a wash basin 7, and a bathtub 8, which are arranged as a unit in an area that can be reached by the pivoting movement of the pivoting arm of the lifting means 5.

Referring to Figures 2 and 3 together, there is a toilet 6 in the bedroom.
A box-shaped unit main body 9 that accommodates a wash basin 7 and a bathtub 8 is installed close to the bed 2, and the toilet bowl 6, the wash basin 7, and the bathtub 8 are fixedly arranged within the unit main body 9. Furthermore, several doors 10 are provided on the side wall of the unit main body 9 facing the bed 2 side so as to be openable and closable. In addition, on the inner surface of the unit main body 9, in order to facilitate the movement of persons with physical disabilities, for example, two upper and lower handrails 11 are provided on each of the remaining side walls excluding the side wall on which the door 10 is provided. I can't sleep.

Externally close to the unit main body 9 and in the vicinity of the door 10, the concrete floor surface 13 is penetrated through the bedroom floor 12.
The pillar 3 is firmly erected. This column 3 is set at a height slightly lower than the unit body 9, and has a base 4 of a pivot arm 4 extending radially outward at its upper end.
It is rotatably supported via a support (not shown).
An opening 14 is provided in the upper part of the side wall of the unit body 9 on the side of the bed 2 to allow the swing arm 4 to enter and exit.

A bending arm 16 is pivotally supported at the tip of the swing arm 4 via a support shaft 15 parallel to the support column 3, and this bending arm 16 is provided with a lifting means 5. The 1゛β raising means 5 is a hoist that is engaged with the bending arm 16 by a hook 17, and when the operation switch 18 is operated, a hook 20 connected to a wire 19 is driven up and down. This hook 20
A band 21 for suspending a person with a physical disability or the like is engaged with.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained. For example, when taking a bath for a person with a physical disability sleeping on the bed 2, the band 21 is attached to the person with a physical disability, the band 21 is engaged with the hook 20, and the operation switch 18 is turned on. Operate to drive the lifting means 5. As a result, the lifting means 5 stops driving while the body is suspended in the air, and the unit main body 9
The door 10 of the door 10 is opened, and the physically disabled person is guided into the unit main body 9 while rotating the rotating arm 4. Next, the physically disabled person is guided onto the bathtub 8, and at this time, the bending arm 16 is
Since it is rotatable around the support shaft 15, the movement position can be finely adjusted. Once you have guided the person to the appropriate position in the bathtub 8-), all you have to do is operate the control switch 18 to gently lower the disabled person.

After taking a bath, the physically disabled person can be returned to the bed 2 by performing the opposite operation to that described above.

You can also perform the same maneuver f+ when washing or defecating.

The above description has been about the movements for people who cannot move without the help of others, but people who are free in their upper body can perform the movements with their own blade by operating the operation switch 18. In this case, a guide member (not shown) for moving around the support 3 in a suspended state may be provided in the middle of the support 3. -1: The pillar 3 does not need to be installed near the bed 2, and the toilet 6. It is sufficient to erect a support 3 near the washbasin 7 and the bathtub 8, and it is also possible to use the system in such a way that, for example, a person who has come to the entrance of the unit body 90 on a stool is guided into the unit body 9 by the lifting means 5. be. In this case, the nursing care device may be installed, for example, in a hospital washroom so that multiple wheelchair users can use it.

As described above, the device of the present invention is arranged as a unit. Days for people who need ``1:1'' A plurality of daily appliances necessary for daily life, a pillar erected near the daily appliances, and a structure that can be freely rotated around the axis of the pillar at the top of the pillar. Since it includes a supported swivel arm and a lifting means provided at the tip of the swivel arm, it is extremely easy to lift a person who requires assistance and transport him or her to a place where household appliances are located. This reduces the labor involved in nursing care work1.
