[0043] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described below are some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments.
[0044] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this utility model provides a side-entry toilet chair.
[0045] The side-access commode chair includes a connecting frame 100, two side frames 200, a seat frame 300, and two armrest frames 400.
[0046] Two side frames 200 are respectively connected to the left and right sides of the connecting frame 100. The two side frames 200 are arranged opposite each other. The seat frame 300 is installed between the two side frames 200 and connects the two side frames 200 and the connecting frame 100.
[0047] The two handrails 400 are respectively connected to the two side frames 200.
[0048] Taking the handrail 400 and side frame 200 located on the right as an example, the side frame 200 is provided with a hinge seat 210 at the rear and a support seat 220 at the front. The height of the support seat 220 is lower than the height of the hinge seat 210.
[0049] The rear end of the handrail 400 is hinged to the hinge seat 210. The handrail 400 can rotate around the left and right axis and can swing left and right relative to the hinge seat 210.
[0050] The handrail 400 is equipped with a support mode and an avoidance mode.
[0051] Reference Figure 1 As shown, when the handrail 400 switches to the support state, the front end of the handrail 400 rotates toward the support seat 220 and swings toward the seat frame 300, so that the front end of the handrail 400 abuts against the support seat 220. The handrail 400 forms a support structure on the right side of the seat frame 300 to support the user's hands.
[0052] Reference Figure 3 As shown, when the armrest 400 switches to the avoidance state, the front end of the armrest 400 rotates downward and swings away from the seat frame 300, causing the armrest 400 to avoid the support base 220 and rotate downward, forming an avoidance space to the right of the seat frame 300, so that the user can enter and exit the commode chair from the avoidance space.
[0053] When a user with mobility impairment needs to use a commode chair, the commode chair is placed next to the user's bed or seat. The armrest 400 is switched to the clearance state, and the user moves from the clearance space on the left or right side of the seat frame 300 to the commode chair in a sitting position. Then the armrest 400 is switched to the support state, and the armrest can support the user's hands to facilitate the user's use of the commode chair.
[0054] After using the toilet, move the commode chair to the side of the user's bed or seat, switch the armrest 400 to the avoidance state, and the user can move from the avoidance space on the left or right side of the seat frame 300 to the bed or seat in a sitting position.
[0055] Therefore, when using a side-entry commode chair, the user enters and exits the commode chair from the side without having to switch between standing and sitting, making it more convenient for users with mobility impairments to use the commode chair.
[0056] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 4 As shown, the hinge seat 210 is provided with a hinge shaft 211 arranged in the left-right direction, and the handrail frame 400 is provided with a hinge hole that runs through in the left-right direction. The diameter of the hinge hole is larger than the outer diameter of the hinge shaft 211. The hinge shaft 211 cooperates with the hinge hole to enable the handrail frame 400 to rotate around the hinge shaft 211. Since there is a gap between the inner wall of the hinge hole and the outer wall of the hinge shaft 211, the handrail frame 400 can swing in the left-right direction relative to the hinge shaft 211.
[0057] The hinge shaft 211 and the hinge hole are designed to enable the handrail frame 400 to rotate and swing, making the connection structure between the hinge seat 210 and the handrail frame 400 simpler and more reliable.
[0058] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 4 As shown, the hinge seat 210 is provided with a stop 212, which is located in front of the hinge shaft 211 and below the rear end of the handrail frame 400. The stop 212 is located on the trajectory of the handrail frame 400 rotating downward.
[0059] When the handrail 400 switches to the avoidance state, the stop block 212 abuts against the bottom of the rear end of the handrail 400, thus restricting the degree of freedom of the stop block 212 to continue to rotate downward.
[0060] The stop block 212 prevents the handrail 400 from continuing to flip downward. When the handrail 400 switches to the avoidance state, the downward rotation angle of the handrail 400 is fixed. When the user moves from the avoidance space, he / she can hold the handrail 400 to help the user move safely.
[0061] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the support base 220 is provided with a baffle 221 extending vertically, and the support base 220 is also provided with a support plate 222 extending horizontally. The bottom of the baffle 221 is connected to the rear end of the support plate 222. When the handrail 400 is switched to the support state, the rear side of the front end of the handrail 400 abuts against the baffle 221, and the bottom of the front end of the handrail 400 abuts against the support plate 222.
[0062] A support plate 222 is provided to support the front end of the handrail 400 so as to provide an upward support force to support the user's hands. A baffle 221 is provided to abut against the rear side of the front end of the handrail 400 to prevent the front end of the handrail 400 from rotating backward and to prevent the handrail 400 from rotating while the user is supporting the handrail 400 with their hands.
[0063] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the baffle 221 is provided with a snap-fit hole 223 that runs through the front and rear directions, and the front end of the handrail 400 is provided with a snap-fit piece 410. When the handrail 400 is switched to the support state, the snap-fit piece 410 is engaged with the snap-fit hole 223.
[0064] The snap-fit hole 223 of the baffle 221 is used to engage with the snap-fit member 410 of the handrail frame 400, so that the handrail frame 400 can maintain its position in the supported state, which helps the snap-fit member 410 to disengage from or engage with the baffle 221.
[0065] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the snap-fit component 410 also includes a spring sheet, a pressing block 411, and a snap-fit block 412. The spring sheet is connected to the front end of the handrail frame 400 and extends in the vertical direction. The pressing block 411 and the snap-fit block 412 are respectively connected to the spring sheet. The pressing block 411 is located above the snap-fit block 412. The pressing block 411 and the snap-fit block 412 extend behind the front end of the handrail frame 400. The elastic force of the spring sheet causes the pressing block 411 and the snap-fit block 412 to move backward.
[0066] When the handrail 400 switches to the avoidance state, the elasticity of the spring pushes the locking block 412 to move backward and insert into the locking hole 223 of the support base 220.
[0067] When the user separates the snap-fit connector 410 and the support base 220, the user presses the pressing block 411 forward, causing the pressing block 411 to move the spring and snap-fit block 412 forward, so that the snap-fit block 412 disengages forward from the snap-fit hole 223 of the support base 220; after releasing the pressing block 411, if the front end of the handrail frame 400 abuts against the support base 220, the elastic force of the spring will push the snap-fit block 412 to move backward and insert into the snap-fit hole 223 of the support base 220, so that the snap-fit connector 410 and the support base 220 can be quickly snapped together.
[0068] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the top of the front side of the baffle 221 is provided with a guide groove 224 that extends vertically. The guide groove 224 gradually slopes forward from top to bottom, and the snap-fit hole 223 is provided below the guide groove 224.
[0069] As the front end of the handrail 400 rotates toward the support base 220, the locking block 412 at the front end of the handrail 400 first falls into the guide groove 224. The guide groove 224 guides the locking block 412 and gradually presses it forward so that the locking block 412 can move forward against the elastic force of the spring piece until the locking block 412 continues to move downward and inserts into the locking hole 223, so that the locking block 412 falls into the locking hole 223 more smoothly.
[0070] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the two side frames 200 are respectively hinged to the left and right ends of the connecting frame 100. Each side frame 200 rotates about an axis extending in the vertical direction. The front end of the seat frame 300 is detachably connected to the two side frames 200, and the rear end of the seat frame 300 is detachably connected to the connecting frame 100.
[0071] The seat frame 300 is removed from the two side frames 200 and the connecting frame 100. Then, one side frame 200 is rotated in front of the connecting frame 100 and the other side frame 200 is rotated in rear of the connecting frame 100, so that the side-access toilet seat can be folded up. After folding, it occupies less space, making it convenient for transportation and storage.
[0072] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the side-access toilet seat is also equipped with a backrest frame 500 and a footrest frame 600. The backrest frame 500 is detachably connected to the top of the connecting frame 100, and the footrest frame 600 is detachably connected to the front of the two side frames 200.
[0073] The backrest frame 500 can be installed on top of the connecting frame 100 to support the user's back; the footrest 600 is installed on the front of the two side frames 200 to support the user's feet; and when the two side frames 200 are folded, the seat frame 300, backrest frame 500 and footrest 600 can be removed to reduce the space occupied by the commode chair after folding.
[0074] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a first fastener 310 is provided at the bottom of the rear side of the seat frame 300. The bottom of the first fastener 310 is provided with a first fastening groove. The connecting frame 100 is provided with a horizontal bar extending in the left and right direction. The first fastening groove is fastened to the horizontal bar. Two second fasteners 320 are provided at the bottom of the front side of the seat frame 300. The two second fasteners 320 extend to the left and right respectively. The bottom of each second fastener 320 is provided with a second fastening groove. The top of each side frame 200 is provided with a vertical bar extending in the front and back direction. The second fastening groove is fastened to the vertical bar.
[0075] The seat frame 300 is securely installed on the two side frames 200 and the connecting frame 100 by using the first fastening groove of the first fastener 310 to fasten the crossbar of the connecting frame 100 and the second fastening groove of the second fastener 320 to fasten the longitudinal bar of the side frame 200.
