Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a device for helping the elderly to put on and take off clothes. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the increasing aging of the population, many elderly people are unable to dress and undress freely due to osteoarthritis, and therefore need devices that can help the elderly dress and undress.

[0003] In this regard, the Chinese invention patent application with application publication number CN110250872A discloses a dressing booster, comprising an assembly I and an assembly III for supporting the left and right sleeves respectively, and an assembly II for hanging clothes, wherein the assembly I and the assembly III have the same structure and are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the assembly II. The assembly II comprises a base plate, an automatic lifting assembly and a load-bearing hanger, wherein the lower end of the automatic lifting assembly is fixed on the base plate, the upper end is connected to the load-bearing hanger, and drives the load-bearing hanger to move up and down. Before dressing, the back collar of the clothes is first hung on the assembly II, and the left and right sleeves are placed in the arc brackets of the assembly I and the assembly III respectively, the elderly stretch their arms into the left and right sleeves respectively, and then control the automatic lifting assembly to rise through the remote control, raise the clothes to the height they want, and then put them on, and finally control the automatic lifting assembly to descend through the remote control, shorten the assembly II, and put the assembly II away.

[0004] The above-mentioned dressing assistant can only help the elderly to dress. For the elderly who have no one to take care of them, taking off clothes is also a difficult task. In this regard, a Chinese utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN210043702U discloses an external exhibition stand single-handed dressing rack, including a bracket, a transverse rod and multiple sets of fixing parts, wherein the transverse rod is obliquely arranged at the upper end of the bracket, and the multiple sets of fixing parts include hooks and spring clips arranged on the transverse rod at intervals along the extension direction of the transverse rod. When dressing, the patient first hangs the clothes on the hook, and then clamps the clothes with the spring clip. After clamping, the clothes can be detached from the hook, and then both hands are put into the sleeves, and the body is moved with a little force to make the clothes fall off the spring clip. In addition, the above-mentioned clothes hanger also includes a clamping mechanism for clamping the cuffs of clothes, and the clamping mechanism has an open state and a closed state. When taking off clothes, the clamping mechanism is first controlled to open by the control component, and then the cuffs of clothes are extended into the clamping mechanism, and then the clamping mechanism is switched to the closing device by controlling the clamping mechanism, and the cuffs of clothes are clamped in the clamping mechanism. Then the patient can retract his hands along the sleeves and take his hands out of the sleeves to complete the undressing.

[0005] The dressing process of the above-mentioned clothes hanger is relatively complicated. It is necessary to hang the clothes first, then clamp the clothes, and then detach the clothes from the hook. The operation is troublesome, the dressing efficiency is low, and the elderly need to raise their arms to operate, which easily makes their arms tired. The undressing process is also inconvenient. For the fixed clamping mechanism, the elderly need to apply force in the opposite direction, that is, to move forward, which is not only laborious, but also easy to make the elderly unstable, and there is a greater risk of falling.

[0035] The features and performance of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0036] An embodiment of the device for helping the elderly to put on and take off clothes in the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, it includes a base 1, on which a lifting mechanism is arranged, and the lifting mechanism includes a vertical plate 2 fixed on the base 1, a mounting groove is arranged in the vertical plate 2, in which two guide rods 4 extending up and down are fixed, and a second lead screw 3 extending up and down with a rotating axis also rotatably installed in the mounting groove, the two guide rods 4 are both round rods, and are respectively located on the left and right sides of the second lead screw 3, and a second motor 12 for driving the second lead screw 3 to rotate is arranged at the bottom of the vertical plate 2.

[0037] The lifting mechanism includes a movable frame that can move up and down, and the movable frame includes a horizontal movable plate 9. The overall structure of the movable frame is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, the movable plate 9 is in an I-shape, and includes a first portion 91 and a second portion 92 which are parallel to each other, and a connecting portion 93 which vertically connects the first portion 91 and the second portion 92. The second portion 92 is provided with a guide hole and a threaded hole, and the second portion 92 extends into the vertical plate 2, and the portion is guided and matched with the guide rod 4 and is threadedly connected with the second lead screw 3.

[0038] The movable frame also includes a vertical plate 8 and a first screw 7 connected to the movable plate 9. The vertical plate 8 and the first screw 7 both extend up and down. There are two vertical plates 8, which are respectively located on the left and right sides of the first screw 7. The vertical plate 8 guides the first part 91 that passes through the movable plate 9. The first screw 7 passes through the first part 91 and is threadedly connected to the first part 91. Therefore, a guide hole and a threaded hole are also provided on the first part 91.

[0039] A cross beam 5 is fixed to the top of the two vertical plates 8, and a bottom plate 11 is fixed to the bottom. The first screw 7 is rotatably installed between the bottom plate 11 and the cross beam 5, and a first motor (not shown in the figure) for driving the first screw 7 to rotate is installed in the cross beam 5. Under the action of the screw and nut mechanism principle, the bottom plate 11, the two vertical plates 8 and the cross beam 5 form a telescopic frame that can be telescopically moved up and down along the movable plate 9.

[0040] Two clamping mechanisms 10 are installed at the front end of the first part 91 of the moving plate 9, and the clamping mechanisms 10 have an open state and a closed state. Figure 7 As shown, the clamping mechanism 10 includes a fixed block 101, on which a movable block 104 is installed through a screw nut mechanism. Specifically, a third screw 102 is rotatably installed on the fixed block 101, and a connecting plate 107 is fixed to the rear end of the fixed block 101. The connecting plate 107 is fixedly connected to the first part 91 of the movable plate 9, and a third motor 103 for driving the third screw 102 to rotate is arranged on the connecting plate 107. The movable block 104 cooperates with the fixed block 101 to guide movement along the front-back direction, and the movable block 104 is threadedly connected to the third screw 102, so that the third motor 103 and the screw nut mechanism constitute a power mechanism for driving the movable block 104 to move forward and backward. The movable block 104 moves forward to put the clamping mechanism in a closed state, and vice versa to put the clamping mechanism in an open state.

[0041] In addition, the clamping mechanism also includes a human infrared sensor 106 installed on the front end surface of the fixed block 101, and the human infrared sensor 106 is connected to the third motor 103 to control the third motor 103 to start when a human hand is sensed. In order to facilitate the control of the first motor, the second motor and the third motor, the elderly dressing and undressing device of the present invention also includes a controller and a remote controller (not shown in the figure), and the controller is connected to the first motor, the second motor, the third motor and the human infrared sensor. Through the corresponding buttons on the remote controller, the controller can control the first motor and the second motor to start, and the signal received by the human infrared sensor is also first transmitted to the controller, and then the controller controls the third motor to start. The control method of the controller and the remote controller belongs to the prior art and will not be introduced in the present invention.

[0042] In the present invention, the clamping opening formed between the movable block 104 and the fixed block 101 is arranged upward, and the movable block 104 is at the rear side, so that the cuff part can be conveniently placed between the movable block 104 and the fixed block 101, and the cuff part is conveniently clamped. In addition, in order to prevent the clamping mechanism from damaging the clothes, a rubber pad 105 for contacting with the clothes is fixed on the movable block 104.

[0043] The clothing-aiding device for elderly people of the present invention further comprises two hooks 6, which are detachably connected to the crossbeam 5, for example, by a threaded connection or by inserting the hooks 6 into the crossbeam 5 and then fixing them by a set screw. The hooks 6 are only installed on the crossbeam 5 when taking off clothes, and the hooks 6 comprise a crossbar and a hook body extending downwardly arranged at the end of the crossbar, and the hook body is used to hook the collar to cooperate with the clamping mechanism to realize taking off clothes.

[0044] The device for assisting the elderly in dressing and undressing of the present invention is divided into two modes when in use: dressing mode and undressing mode. When dressing, the elderly stand on the base 1 and hang the collar of the clothes on the crossbeam 5. The crossbeam 5 constitutes a clothes support structure on the top of the mobile frame. Before hanging the clothes, the second motor 12 can be controlled to start, so that the mobile frame moves up and down to adjust the appropriate height. Of course, the first motor can also be controlled to start, so that the telescopic frame moves up and down alone. The up and down movement of the telescopic frame can adapt to clothes of different lengths. For example, when the clothes are long, the telescopic frame can be moved upward to avoid excessive squeezing of the hem of the clothes on the mobile plate 9.

[0045] After the clothes are hung on the beam 5, the elderly first put their arms into the sleeves, and then control the entire mobile frame to rise, or only control the telescopic frame to rise, or the two can be combined. When the collar part rises to the shoulder position of the person, the clothes can be put on the body. Finally, when the mobile frame or only the telescopic frame is lowered, the clothes can be separated from the undressing device, and the dressing process is completed. Of course, if the person moves forward, the clothes can be put on faster.

[0046] When taking off clothes, first install the clothes hook 6 on the crossbeam 5, then adjust the crossbeam 5 to a suitable height, turn the back of the person's body to the clothes hook 6, move the body so that the hook body of the clothes hook 6 extends into the neck to hook the collar, then let the two arms hang down and put them on the clamping mechanism (the clamping mechanism is in an open state at this time), so that the cuff part of the clothes is placed between the fixed block and the movable block, and the palm approaches or touches the human infrared sensor, so that the third motor is started, driving the movable block to move and clamp the cuff (the clamping mechanism is in a closed state at this time), and then control the movable frame to move downward, so that the clamping mechanism clamps the cuff of the clothes and moves downward, and at the same time, the clothes hook 6 moves downward by grabbing the collar, so that the clothes are taken off.

[0047] The dressing and undressing device of the present invention can help the elderly to dress and undress. When dressing, the clothes only need to be hung on the clothes support structure of the movable frame, and the operation is convenient and effortless; when undressing, the clamping mechanism clamps the cuff part and then moves downward, and the elderly can stand steadily and easily take off the clothes without moving forward. The operation is also very convenient and safe.

[0048] In other embodiments of the device for helping the elderly to dress and undress, the clothes hook can be foldably installed on the beam. For example, the clothes hook can be rotatably installed on the left and right sides of the beam. When dressing, the clothes hook is rotated to be close to the side of the beam to ensure that it does not affect normal dressing. The clothes hook is only turned out when undressing; or the clothes hook can be retractable in the front and back directions, extended when in use, and retracted when not in use.

[0049] In other embodiments of the device for helping the elderly to put on and take off clothes, the device for helping the elderly to put on and take off clothes does not include a clothes hook, and taking off clothes is achieved by relying on a clamping mechanism.

[0050] In other embodiments of the device for helping the elderly to put on and take off clothes, the rubber pad may be fixed only on the fixed block, or on both the fixed block and the movable block. Of course, the rubber pad may not be provided on either the fixed block or the movable block.

[0051] In other embodiments of the device for helping the elderly to put on and take off clothes, the human infrared sensor can also be installed on the movable block, in which case the movable block is in the front.

[0052] In other embodiments of the device for helping the elderly to put on and take off clothes, the power mechanism for driving the movable block to move may also be a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder or an electric push rod.

[0053] In other embodiments of the device for helping the elderly to put on and take off clothes, the clamping mechanism does not include a human infrared sensor, but the power mechanism is activated by controlling the controller.

[0054] In other embodiments of the device for helping the elderly to put on and take off clothes, the clamping mechanism is not automatically controlled by a power mechanism and switched between an open state and a closed state, but is only a clip controlled by manual pressing, or as disclosed in patent document CN210043702U, the opening and closing are controlled by a foot pedal and a transmission structure.

[0055] In other embodiments of the device for assisting the elderly in dressing and undressing, the movable plate is not an I-shaped plate, but a square plate.

[0056] In other embodiments of the device for helping the elderly to dress and undress, the lifting mechanism can also be a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder or an electric push rod, and the moving plate is connected to the telescopic rod of the hydraulic cylinder, the pneumatic cylinder or the electric push rod.

[0057] In other embodiments of the device for helping the elderly to dress and undress, there may be only one vertical plate, which is fixed above the movable plate, and the crossbeam is fixed on the top of the vertical plate. In this case, there is no telescopic frame, and the vertical plate and the crossbeam can only move with the up and down movement of the movable plate.

[0058] In other embodiments of the device for helping the elderly to dress and undress, when the lifting mechanism is a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder or an electric push rod, the movable frame can be a vertical rod connected to the telescopic rod of the hydraulic cylinder, the cylinder or the electric push rod, and a horizontal rod is fixed on the top of the vertical rod as a clothing support structure. At this time, the clamping mechanism is fixed on the vertical rod.
