[0028] The limit reset assembly 2 includes a fixed post 21, which is detachably connected to the protrusion 102. A limit seat 23 is installed on the fixed post 21 through an elastic reset member 22. When a person leans over the limit seat 23 and applies forward force, the elastic reset member 22 causes the limit seat 23 to tilt forward. When the person returns to a sitting position, the elastic reset member 22 causes the limit seat 23 to return to its original position.
[0029] Two horizontally arranged handrail components 3 are installed on the limiting seat 23, and the distance between the two handrail components 3 is adjustable.
[0030] In this embodiment, the elastic reset member 22 includes a rotating shaft 221, an assembly block 222, and a torsion spring 223. The rotating shaft 221 is rotatably mounted on both sides of the fixed column 21. The assembly block 222 is fixed on both rotating shafts 221. The torsion spring 223 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 221 between the fixed column 21 and the assembly block 222. The two ends of the torsion spring 223 are respectively connected to the fixed column 21 and the assembly block 222. The limiting seat 23 is installed on the two assembly blocks 222.
[0031] It should be noted that when the elderly person leans over the limiting seat 23 and applies force to it, the assembly block 222 drives the rotating shaft 221 to rotate, and the torsion spring 223 deforms. After the elderly person removes the force, the torsion spring 223 returns to its original shape, which in turn drives the limiting seat 23 to reset.
[0032] In this embodiment, a slot is provided in the protrusion 102, the bottom end of the fixing post 21 is inserted into the slot, and a locking member is installed on the fixing post 21 to lock the fixing post 21.
[0033] In this embodiment, the locking component includes a first bolt 103, which is threaded onto the outer periphery of the protrusion 102 and pressed against the fixing post 21.
[0034] It should be noted that the fixing post 21 and the protrusion 102 are detachably connected by the first bolt 103. During installation, the fixing post 21 is inserted into the slot and the first bolt 103 is tightened. During disassembly, the first bolt 103 is loosened and the fixing post 21 is pulled out.
[0035] In this embodiment, the handrail assembly 3 includes a storage column 31, a telescopic rod 32 and a second bolt 33. Two horizontally arranged storage columns 31 are installed on the limiting seat 23. The distance between the two storage columns 31 is adjustable. An insertion cavity is opened in the storage column 31. The telescopic rod 32 is inserted into the insertion cavity. The storage column 31 is threaded with a second bolt 33 that is pressed against the telescopic rod 32.
[0036] It should be noted that the storage column 31 is installed on the limiting seat 23 and the spacing is adjustable. The telescopic rod 32 is inserted into the storage column 31 and its position can be fixed by the second bolt 33. This structure allows the length and spacing of the handrail assembly 3 to be flexibly adjusted according to the position of the elderly's arm, improving the comfort and stability of the elderly when using it.
[0037] In this embodiment, two symmetrically arranged fixing blocks 4 are installed on the side of the limiting seat 23, and a limiting rod 41 is installed between the two fixing blocks 4. Two receiving columns 31 are sleeved on the limiting rod 41, and a third bolt 34 that is threaded on the receiving column 31 and presses against the limiting rod 41.
[0038] It should be noted that the fixing block 4 and the limiting rod 41 provide guidance and positioning for the storage column 31. The storage column 31 is fitted onto the limiting rod 41 and is fixed by pressing the limiting rod 41 with the third bolt 34. Loosening the third bolt 34 can adjust the position of the storage column 31, thereby adjusting the spacing of the handrail assembly 3.
[0039] The specific working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0040] Remove the limit reset component 2 from the protrusion 102 and help the elderly sit on the main body 1 of the shower chair so that the elderly’s legs are placed in the two arc-shaped openings 101 respectively. Then, insert the bottom end of the fixing post 21 into the slot of the protrusion 102 and install the limit reset component 2 on the protrusion 102 by tightening the first bolt 103 to form a limit in front of the elderly.
[0041] The elderly person bends over the limiting seat 23 and applies force forward. The limiting seat 23 drives the assembly block 222, causing the rotating shaft 221 to rotate on the fixed column 21. The torsion spring 223 deforms. At this time, the limiting seat 23 tilts forward, and the caregiver can clean the elderly person's back. After the elderly person's back is cleaned, they slowly sit up and the force on the limiting seat 23 is removed. The torsion spring 223 returns to its original deformation, driving the assembly block 222 and the limiting seat 23 back to their original positions.
[0042] If the elderly person bends over the limit seat 23, the distance between the handrail components 3 can be adjusted according to the position of their hands. Loosen the third bolt 34, move the storage column 31 along the limit rod 41 to the appropriate position and then tighten it. If the handrail length needs to be adjusted, loosen the second bolt 33, adjust the extension length of the telescopic rod 32 and then tighten it. The elderly person can hold the telescopic rod 32 with both hands to increase the stability of bending over, and it is also convenient for caregivers to clean the elderly person's arms.
[0043] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
