Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of bathing assistance equipment for the elderly, specifically a bathing assistance chair for the elderly. Background Technology
[0002] Generally speaking, as people age, they experience a slowdown in metabolism, decreased immunity, and declining physiological functions. Graying hair, eyebrows, and beard are among the most obvious characteristics of old age. Some elderly people may develop age spots, and occasionally experience memory loss. With the increasing number of elderly people in modern society, they also face more and more problems in their lives. Bathing is a very common activity in our daily lives, but for the elderly, especially those who are advanced in age or have physical disabilities, bathing becomes one of the problems they encounter due to their limited mobility and declining physical functions. Going to a public bathhouse can be dangerous as it is easy to slip and fall, while using a bathtub poses a risk of drowning. Moreover, it is not very convenient for the elderly to lie down and bathe in a bathtub.
[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN211381017U discloses a bathing assistance device for the elderly, including a seat. A hanging rod is fixedly connected to the left outer wall of the seat, and the hanging rod is fixed to the outer wall of the seat through a connecting plate. A placement box is fixedly connected to the right outer wall of the seat. Two partitions are fixedly connected inside the placement box, and the two partitions divide the interior of the placement box into three placement slots. The protective cover is L-shaped, and a slider is fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective cover.
[0004] The aforementioned bathing assistance device for the elderly still has certain shortcomings. It places the seat under the shower head, allowing the elderly to sit on the seat for bathing. The water on the seat is drained through the drainage channel to prevent the water on the seat from mixing with the bath foam and making the seat surface slippery. However, it occupies a large area when not in use, reducing the space utilization rate. Therefore, this application proposes a bathing assistance device for the elderly to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0007] Furthermore, a hook is fixed to the right side of the right-side column, and a storage box is fixed to the left side of the left-side column.
[0008] Furthermore, the storage mechanism includes two mounting columns fixed to opposite sides of two connecting plates, each of the two columns having a connecting column fixed to its opposite side, each of the two connecting columns having a back plate rotatably connected to its opposite side, each of the two mounting columns having a seat plate rotatably connected to its opposite side, each of the two seat plates having a positioning hole on its front side, and a U-shaped tube inserted into the interior of each of the two positioning holes.
[0009] Furthermore, the two back plates are rotatably connected to each other, and the two seat plates are rotatably connected to each other.
[0010] Furthermore, the storage mechanism also includes multiple drainage holes located on the outer sides of the two back panels and the two seat panels.
[0011] Furthermore, a silicone pad is provided at the top of both handrails, and a stabilizing plate is horizontally welded to the bottom of both uprights.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] This elderly bathing assistance chair allows towels to be hung on hooks, and toiletries can also be placed inside the storage box in advance, improving convenience.
