[0022] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] Example 1: A retractable toilet safety aid for geriatric psychiatry, see reference. Figures 1-5 As shown, the device includes a mounting plate 1 and a limiting plate 2. The limiting plate 2 is welded to the front of the mounting plate 1. It also includes a sliding plate 3, a sliding plate 4, a connecting shaft 5, a snap-fit strap 6, a connecting strap 7, a protective shell 8, a gear ring 9, a locking block 10, a guide rod 11, a return spring 12, an electromagnet 13, and a worm spring 14. The sliding plate 3 is slidably mounted on the left side of the limiting plate 2, and the sliding plate 4 is slidably mounted on the right side of the limiting plate 2. Protective shells 8 are welded to both the upper and lower front sides of the sliding plate 3. A connecting shaft 5 is rotatably mounted on the front of the sliding plate 3, passing through both protective shells 8. A snap-fit strap 6 is wound around the connecting shaft 5. A gear ring 9 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the connecting shaft 5. The gear ring 9 is located inside the adjacent protective shell 8. An electromagnet 13 is installed on the lower rear side of the protective shell 8, which is adjacent to the gear ring 9. Guide rods 11 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the upper rear side of the protective shell 8, which is adjacent to the gear ring 9. A locking block 10 is slidably set on the two guide rods 11. The locking block 10 is locked on the gear ring 9. A return spring 12 is sleeved on the guide rod 11. The two ends of the return spring 12 are connected to the protective shell 8 and the locking block 10, respectively. A spiral spring 14 is connected between the protective shell 8, which is far from the gear ring 9, and the connecting shaft 5. A connecting strip 7 is fixedly connected to the front side of the sliding plate 2 4. The end of the locking strip 6 can be locked into the connecting strip 7.
[0024] See Figures 2-4 As shown, the snap strap 6 is made of elastic material to prevent strangulation of the elderly.
[0025] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a lighting lamp 25, which is installed at the bottom of the mounting plate 1.
[0026] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a limiting shell 26, which is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 3. The snap-fit strap 6 is located inside the limiting shell 26, and the end of the snap-fit strap 6 passes through the limiting shell 26.
[0027] Before using the device, it needs to be installed on the wall of the toilet stall. When the elderly need to use the toilet, first guide them to sit on the assisted toilet chair. By activating the electromagnet 13, the electromagnet 13 attracts the locking block 10 to itself, and the return spring 12 is compressed. Then, pull the end of the locking strap 6 to pull it out. The spiral spring 14 deforms accordingly. As the locking strap 6 is pulled out, the connecting shaft 5 rotates and then the end of the locking strap 6 is locked into the end of the connecting strap 7. This provides support for the elderly and can fix the elderly of different body types, thereby enhancing the versatility of the device. Finally, turn off the electromagnet 13, so that the return spring 12 rebounds and drives the locking block 10 to lock back into the toothed ring 9. The elderly can then use the toilet. The light 25 can provide illumination at night, and the limiting shell 26 can protect the locking strap 6.
[0028] Example 2: Based on Example 1, refer to Figure 1 As shown, it also includes an electric slider 15, an electric slide rail 16, a mounting plate 27, an electric slide rail 28, an electric slider 29, and a connecting plate 20.

Two electric sliders 15 are mounted on the electric slide rail 16 and slide on the electric slide rail 16. Sliding plates 3 and 4 are respectively mounted on adjacent electric sliders 15. Electric slide rails 18 are bolted to both mounting plates 27. Electric sliders 19 are mounted on both electric slide rails 18 and slide on the electric slide rails 18. The two electric slide rails 18 are located on the left and right sides of the mounting plate 17. Connecting plates 20 are fixedly connected to the electric sliders 19 and the two connecting plates 20 are fixedly connected to the mounting plate 17.
[0029] Before the elderly person uses the toilet, activating the two electric slide rails 18 causes their electric sliders 19 to move. Simultaneously, the sliders 19 move, causing their connecting plates 20 to move. The two connecting plates 20 then move the mounting plate 1, allowing adjustment of the fixed components to accommodate elderly people of different heights. Activating the electric slide rail 16 causes its two electric sliders 19 to move, which in turn moves sliding plates 3 and 4, adjusting the distance between the locking strap 6 and the connecting strap 7. This accommodates elderly people with different waist widths, enhancing the device's practicality. Once the desired position is achieved, the electric slide rails 16 and 18 are turned off.
[0030] See Figure 2As shown, it also includes a support plate 21, a timer 22, a controller 23, and an alarm 24. The support plate 21 is welded to the upper front side of the mounting plate 1. The support plate 21 is located above the limit plate 2. The alarm 24 is bolted to the left front side of the support plate 21. The timer 22 is bolted to the middle front side of the support plate 21. The controller 23 is bolted to the right front side of the support plate 21. The controller 23 is electrically connected to the alarm 24 and the timer 22.
[0031] Once the elderly person is secured, a specified time is set on timer 22. When the time is up, timer 22 sends a signal to controller 23, which then activates alarm 24 to quickly alert caregivers or other family members, allowing them to check the elderly person's condition and provide necessary assistance. The process can be repeated before the next toilet visit.
