Next, an example of assistance work will be explained.

First, the physically disabled person M lying on the bed shown in FIG. 2 is placed on the seat member 44 of the assistance hanger 17 shown in FIG.

When placing the person M on the seat member 44, the person M is placed on the seat member 44 with the seat member 44 suspended.

Alternatively, once the insertion tool 67 of the hanging belt 63 in FIG.
Remove the seat member 44 from the holder 56 shown in the figure and place it on the bed 5 shown in FIG. 2. After the person M is placed on the seat member 44, the insertion tool 67 is fitted into the holder 56 again.

In any case, since the hanging members 46 and 46 are spaced apart, it is easy to place the person M on the seat member 44. In addition, even if the assistance hanging tool 17 is hung, the adjacent hanging members 46, 46 still have I.
? ! Since there is a gap of 1, there is no pressure or pressure on person M. Then, the waist area of the person M is fixed with a fixing belt 50.

The person M or the helper presses the button of the switch 48 shown in FIG. 3 and uses the lifting motor 34 to raise the assisting hanger 17 to a desired height.

Next, another button of the switch 48 shown in FIG. 3 is pressed to advance the assisting hanger 17 from the position of the bed 5 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 along the rail 8 to the toilet bowl 6 of the toilet room 3. In this case, the connecting rail 72 of the course changing device 70 is, for example, the 10th
It is connected to a rail 8.9 as shown in the figure. Then, another button of the switch 48 shown in FIG. 3 is pressed to lower the assistance hanger 17 to the toilet bowl 6. In other words, since the seat member 44 functions as a toilet seat, the user can defecate and urinate as is.

Next, the button of the switch 48 shown in FIG. 3 is pressed to raise the assistance hanger 17 from the toilet bowl 6 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. Then, the assistance hanger 17 is advanced from the toilet bowl 6 to the bathtub 7 along the rail 8°9.

Similarly, the person M is lowered to take a bath by lowering the assistance hanger 17. At this point, the adjacent hanging member 46.46
Since there is a sufficient distance between the two, it is easy to remove the person M from the seat member 44.

After that, place it on the assistance hoist 17 again, raise it to a predetermined height, and connect the rail 9 and the connecting rail 72 (Fig. 10).
Then move along rail 8 and place 8Me@Dos on bet 5.

By the way, for example, if you want to move from the bed room 2, toilet room 3, or bathroom 4 to another room (for example, the kitchen) using the rail 10 in FIG. rail 72 to rail 9
Connect to rail 10 from. Thereby, the course of the assistance hanging tool 17 shown in FIG. 1 can be changed.

When the assistance device 15 is moved along the rail 8.9° 10 in this way, the cable 126 in FIG. do.

At this time, the cable 126 is separated from the members of the building by, for example, the pipe 146 of the support means 150 in FIG. 18. Therefore, the cable 126 will not be rubbed or damaged by the surfaces or corners of building members.

By the way, the guide body, which is a rail, can of course be installed in other rooms such as a bed room, toilet room, bathroom, and kitchen.

The angle of course change is not limited to 90°.

Further, the course changing device can be provided not only between three rails 8°9.10 but also between four or more rail ends facing each other.

Furthermore, the guide body is not limited to an I-shaped beam in cross section. The support of the assistance sling is not limited to a rectangular shape.

Furthermore, in FIG. 10, the other end of the connecting rail 72 (corresponding to the rail 8) can be connected to the rail 10 by rotating the lower panel 75 counterclockwise by devising the mounting of the stopper on the rail 10. You can also do that. In this case, when the limit switch 87 connects to the dog 84, the motor stops, and the other end of the connecting rail 72 is reliably connected to the rail 10.

Go to 11 11 As is clear from the above explanation, since adjacent hanging members can be spaced apart from each other at a predetermined distance, it is easy to put people on and take them down, and moreover, the hanging members do not press or push people when they are suspended. 1=I don't like it. Therefore, a person with a physical disability can be transported comfortably, safely, and easily.
