Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a bathing chair, and more specifically, a lower limb bathing chair for the elderly. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies for lower limb bathing chairs for the elderly, in order to adapt to the small space of most bathrooms, most products are designed with excessive compression of the horizontal and vertical spacing between the four legs. There is a common problem that the distance between the front legs is less than 40cm and the distance between the back legs is less than 35cm. This compact support structure makes it difficult to form a stable force-bearing area. When the elderly sit down, their center of gravity shifts backward, or when they stand up, their hands press on the seat to generate lateral force. The narrow spacing of the four legs makes it very easy for the force to become unbalanced, which increases the risk of the bathing chair wobbling. Especially for elderly users with weak lower limb strength and poor balance, the instability caused by the small distance between the four legs in the existing technology seriously threatens their bathing safety. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a lower limb bathing chair for the elderly, the beneficial effect of which is that the distance between the four legs of the bathing chair is increased, making the bathing chair more stable.

[0004] A lower limb bathing chair for the elderly includes a seat body, with two legs on one side of the seat body and a rear extension plate fixed to the other side of the seat body. Two support pillars are fixed to the lower side of the rear extension plate.

[0005] The chair body is equipped with a backrest.

[0006] The seat and backrest are equipped with multiple anti-slip ridges.

[0007] The chair body is provided with through holes.

[0008] A side handle is fixed to the backrest. The side handle is door-shaped, and its two ends are located on both sides of the seat body.

[0009] A bathtub is provided on the outer side of the two support legs. One side of the bathtub is flat and the other side is curved. The flat side of the bathtub faces the two support legs.

[0010] The bathtub has two sockets fixed on it, and the two support legs are inserted into the two sockets respectively and pass through the two sockets.

[0011] The inner bottom surface of the bath basin is evenly distributed with multiple protruding ridges.

[0012] The bathtub is fixed with two support columns, and a handrail is fixed to the upper part of the two support columns.

[0013] The lower end of the support column is attached with an anti-slip pad. Attached Figure Description

[0023] A lower limb bathing chair for the elderly includes a seat body 1, with two support legs 3 on one side of the seat body 1, a rear expansion plate 7 fixed on the other side of the seat body 1, and two support pillars 8 fixed on the lower side of the rear expansion plate 7.

[0024] like Figure 4-5 As shown;

[0025] The rear extension plate 7 extends to one side of the seat body 1, so that the two pillars 8 and the two legs 3 on the other side of the seat body 1 form a support layout that is expanded both horizontally and vertically. Compared with the narrow-spaced four-leg structure of the prior art, it greatly increases the support area and forms a stable quadrilateral support system, which improves the overall stability of the bath chair from the structure and avoids swaying caused by the shift of the center of gravity.

[0026] The chair body 1 is provided with a backrest 5.

[0027] like Figure 4-5 As shown;

[0028] The backrest 5 is vertically fixed above the seat body 1 to provide back support for the elderly, allowing them to maintain an upright posture while bathing.

[0029] Both the seat body 1 and the backrest 5 are provided with multiple anti-slip ridges 2.

[0030] like Figure 4-5 As shown;

[0031] The anti-slip ridges 2 on the seat body 1 and backrest 5 increase the coefficient of friction between the user's body and the contact surface, preventing elderly users from adjusting their body posture due to slipping between their skin and the seat surface and backrest, and preventing the bath chair from wobbling due to force fluctuations.

[0032] The seat body 1 is provided with a through hole 4.

[0033] like Figure 4-5 As shown;

[0034] The through-hole 4 on the seat body 1 can quickly drain residual water during bathing, preventing water from accumulating on the seat and causing the user to slip.

[0035] A side handle 6 is fixed on the backrest 5. The side handle 6 is door-shaped, and its two ends are located on both sides of the seat body 1.

[0036] like Figure 4-5 As shown;

[0037] The door-shaped side handles 6 are straddling both sides of the seat body 1. When elderly users get up, sit down, or adjust their posture, they can hold the side handles 6 with both hands to gain leverage, making the force direction more balanced and avoiding the seat body 1 shifting due to force applied on one side. Combined with the enlarged four-leg support layout, it further prevents the bath chair from wobbling or tipping over.

[0038] A bathtub 9 is provided on the outer side of the two support legs 3. One side of the bathtub 9 is flat and the other side is curved. The flat side of the bathtub 9 faces the two support legs 3.

[0039] like Figure 6-7 As shown;

[0040] The washbasin 9 is designed to fit the two support legs 3 on its flat side, while the curved side is adapted to the space requirements for lower limb bathing. Its design to fit the support legs 3 can provide lateral restraint to the support legs 3 and reduce the displacement of the support legs 3 when subjected to force.

[0041] The bathtub 9 has two sockets 13 fixed on it, and two support legs 3 are inserted into the two sockets 13 respectively and pass through the two sockets 13.

[0042] like Figure 4-7 As shown;

[0043] The two sockets 13 are plugged into the support legs 3 to fix and limit the lower end of the support legs 3, restricting the horizontal swaying of the support legs 3, so that the support legs 3 and the bath basin 9 form a stable connection, making the support force of the support legs 3 more concentrated. Together with the support spacing of the support column 8 expanded by the rear expansion plate 7, a stable support structure with upper and lower coordination is formed.

[0044] The inner bottom surface of the bath basin 9 is evenly distributed with multiple protruding ridges 10.

[0045] like Figure 6 As shown;

[0046] The raised ridges on the inner bottom of the bathtub 9 increase the friction between the elderly user's feet and the tub, preventing the feet from slipping and causing loss of balance.

[0047] Two support columns 12 are fixed on the bathtub 9, and a handrail 11 is fixed on the upper part of the two support columns 12.

[0048] like Figure 6-7 As shown;

[0049] Two support columns 12 are fixed to both sides of the bathtub 9, and the upper handrail 11 provides users with additional gripping points. Users can hold it with one or both hands while bathing to further stabilize their body posture.

[0050] The lower end of the support column 8 is attached with an anti-slip pad.

[0051] like Figure 4-5 As shown;

[0052] The anti-slip pad at the bottom of the support column 8 increases the coefficient of friction with the bathroom floor, reducing the risk of the support column 8 slipping due to the wet floor, making the support of the support column 8 more stable, and preventing the bath chair from shaking due to the displacement of the support point.
