Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Production--Shino 1 This invention relates to improvements in bathtubs.

[Go to L] A person with a physical disability, such as an elderly person or a disabled person, is bathed in a regular bathtub.

However, since ordinary bathtubs have deep bottoms, it is dangerous unless the bottom of the lagoon is significantly reduced. It is also very deep, so it is very hard work for caregivers to enter people with physical disabilities.

After a disabled person takes a bath, when other able-bodied family members take a bath, the turbidity must increase to the normal level, which is uneconomical.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, this invention allows a person with physical disabilities to take a bath safely and without putting a great burden on the caregiver, without reducing the burden of crying. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a bathtub that can be used by a healthy person and does not require increasing the quality of the hot water.

LL Base I't The gist of the present invention is the bathtub according to claim 1.

− for hitting the interval, Please refer to FIG.

A support body (slatted board 2 in the embodiment) for supporting the body is provided inside the bathtub 1 and at a position away from the inner surface 12h1 of the bottom portion 11.

L-North.

When a person with a physical disability, such as an elderly person or a disabled person, takes a bath, support the body on a support. This actually reduces the depth of the lagoon and allows for safe bathing.

In addition, when a healthy person takes a bath, at least a portion of the support body is moved so that the body is supported on the inner surface 12 of the bottom portion 11.
do.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the bathtub of this invention.

The bathtub 1 has a rectangular shape when viewed from above. To give an example of dimensions, the length of bathtub 1 is 160,011 m, and the width is 80,011 m.
And the height is 600g+s. A sloped portion 1a is provided. Vertical wall portions 1b, 1c.

Step portions 4, 5.6 are formed on each portion 1d. The stepped portion 4.5 is formed at a predetermined height position along the longitudinal direction of the bath WJ1, for example, 350+++s from the top of the bathtub 1. Further, the stepped portion 6 is connected to the stepped portions 4 and 5. These steps 4° 5.6 are preferably parallel to the inner surface 12 of the bottom 11. However, it is not limited to this.

Further, stoppers 9 and 10 are attached to the inclined portion 1a.

Referring to FIG. 2, the slope portion 1a and the stepped portion 4°5.6
is clearly shown. Note that the bathtub 1 may be a stainless steel bathtub, a plastic bathtub, a Borrow bathtub, or the like.

Referring again to FIG. The drainboard 2 has multiple pipes 17
, wire 15.16 and hook 7.8.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the pipe 17 is, for example, an I
It has a square cross section and is made of aluminum. The length and width of each pipe 17 are, for example, 101111. A cap 18.18 is attached to each end of each pipe 17. The pipes 17 are spaced apart, for example, by 5011 Il between centers. This cap 18 is made of vinyl, for example. The wires 15,16 are made of vinyl, for example. Wires 15, 16 connect each pipe 17 through each pipe 17, as shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 4, the hook 7 is attached to one end of the wire 15.
is installed. Further, the hook 8 is attached to one end of the wire 16. These hooks 7.8 are made of stainless steel, for example, and can be hooked onto the stops 9.10 shown in FIG. 2, respectively. These stops 9 and 10 are also made of stainless steel, for example. Further, both end portions of each pipe 17 are placed on the stepped portions 4 and 5 shown in FIG. Furthermore, the pipe 17 at the end can be placed on the stepped portion 6.

Explain its use. First, we will explain the case of bathing a physically challenged person, such as an elderly person or a physically disabled person.

Referring to FIG. 3, 13 is inserted to a predetermined position. The hook 7.8 (see Figure 4) has a stop depth of 9.10.
(See Figure 2). In FIG. 3, the hook 8 and the stop 10 are shown. The drainboards 2 are set horizontally apart from the inner surface 12 of the bottom portion 11 in the manner described above.

17tl [T113
Place it more gently on the drainboard 2. This allows the head to be placed in the bathtub 1.
You can wash your body as if you were taking water out of your body.

After bathing, the physically challenged person M is taken out through the opening 13 again. Then, hold the free end of the slat 2, roll it up, and bring it to the hook 8 side. Alternatively, after rolling it up, remove each hook 8 and 9 from each stopper and take the board 2 out of the bathtub 1.

Healthy people will come in after this. By doing so, a healthy person can support his or her body on the inner surface 12 of the bottom portion 11.

As a result, the depth of I can be made deeper than when setting slats 2, and the body can be sunk sufficiently.

In other words, there is no need to adjust the hanging of the bathtub 3, and by simply setting up the drainboard 2 or not, both people with physical disabilities and able-bodied people can use the drain 3 of the bathtub 1. .

The bathtub of the present invention is especially suitable for use in households with people with physical disabilities.

However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. For example, instead of the stepped portion, the protruding portion may be replaced with the wall portion 1b.
, 1c, and 1d, and supports may be placed on these protrusions. Furthermore, if the steps, protrusions, and other portions are movable in the depth direction of the bath Wi1, the height of the support can be freely set as necessary.

The support is not limited to slats, but any structure can be used, whether or not it allows water to pass through. However, it is preferable to use a support that allows water to pass through, as this will allow the hot water to flow better. For example, a porous aluminum plate may be used.

1.LL As is clear from the above explanation, it is possible to bathe a person with physical disabilities safely and without placing a large burden on the caregiver, even without reducing the danger of lagoons. Moreover, there is no need to increase the amount of hot water for healthy people. For this reason, the lagoon can be used for historical purposes.
