Description

Feb.'l2, 1952 G. W..HARRI$ I COMBINED HOSPITAL CHAIR AND PAIL Filed Nov. 18, 1949 GEORGE W. HARRIS AT TOR NEY Patented Feb. 12, 1952 UNITED STATES PAT NT 'o-F Fl-C E 2,585,771 r I COMBINED HOSPITAL CHAIR. AND PAIL George W. Harris, New Rochelle, N. Y.
Application November 18, 1949, Serial No. 128,067
2 Claims. 1
. This invention relates to a combined hospital chair and pail.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a support for a hospital toilet pail in which the pail can be supported while being used by the patient, which is deep and more easy to use than the common bed pan now in use in the hospitals, and which can be carried by a bail and which has a cover attached to the rim thereof which cannot be lost and is always available.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a combined hospital pail and chair supporting frame wherein the pail has a large flange for the purpose of supporting the same and to provide a comfortable resting surface for the patient, the supporting being effected by the placing of the pail through an open pipe frame serving as the seat support for the chair.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a hospital pail which is so shaped on the bottom that there is little splash when used and wherein the indentation forming the bottom serves to keep the pail properly centered within the chair seat support and which requires that the pail be properly aligned when placed in the chair support.
Other objects of the present invention are to provide a combined hospital pail and chair support which is of simple construction, inexpensive to manufacture, convenient to use, has a minimum number of parts, strong and sturdy, easy to carry and set up and eflicient in operation.
For other objects and for a better understanding of the invention, reference may be had to the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, in which Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the chair support with the hospital pail removed therefrom.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the hospital pail.
Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the chair support and pail disposed therein.
Fig. 4 is a front elevational view of the chair support and pail.
Fig. 5 is a vertical sectional view taken on line 5-5 of Fig. 4.
Referring now to the figures, I0 represents a U-shaped member serving as the back support for the chair and as a handle for effecting the movement of the chair. This handle portion is indicated at H. On the lower ends of the U- shaped member are adjustable caster wheel devices l2. A chair portion I3 is in the form of a ring. This chair portion is connected by bracket members I4 and IE to the U-shaped member Hi. The front of the seat portion has leg supports it and IT. Each of these leg supports has a caster wheel device 12 thereon. These caster wheel devices are adjustable on the lower ends of the legs and on the back legs to accommodate the different patients.
A pail l8 of substantial depth is extended through the ring seat portion I3. This pail has a large wide top flange 59 adapted to extend over the ring support l3 and provide a wide and comfortable seating surface for the patient. On the back of the top flange I9 there is hinged, as indicated at 2|, a top cover 22 having sealing ring 23 engageable with the top surface of the flange IS.
The bottom of the pail is raised, as indicated at 24, to provide an anti-splash surface. This also provides for a depression 25 in the bottom face of the pail with which an arm 25 extending from a bracket 21 on the front chair legs l6 and I7 engages. The shape of the depression 25 is such that the member 26 extends thereinto so as to prevent any rotational turning of the pail upon the ring seat portion I3. The anti-splash surface 24 will thus always be properly positioned for one properly sitting on the flange 99.
Connected to the opposite sides of the flange and extending across the top of the pail is a bail 28 with a hand grip 29 thereupon. By means of this bail, the pail can be pulled from the ring seat portion I3 and carried from the patients room. The chair support, however, can be easily rolled over the floor and serve to transport the pail.
While various changes may be made in the detail construction, it will be understood that such changes shall be within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.
What is claimed is:
1. In combination, a chair support including a ring seat portion, a pail having a flange and adapted to be extended through the ring seat portion to be supported by its flange within the ring seat portion, said pail having an antisplash bottom providing for a bottom surface depression, a guide member fixed to the chair support and adapted to enter the bottom surface depression to keep the pail from turning upon the ring seat portion.
2. In combination, a chair support including a ring seat portion, a pail having a flange and adapted to be extended through the ring seat portion to be supported by its flange within the ring seat portion, said pail having an anti-splash bottom providing for a bottom surface depression, a guide member fixed to the chair support ring seat portion, said chair support including forward legs connected to the ring seat portion and spaced from one another, said bracket being connected between the forward legs and said guide member extending rearwardly from the bracket.
