[0044] The additional handrail 36 is provided in a U - shaped manner that opens rearward when viewed in the left - right direction. The additional handrail 36 has an upper handrail portion 360 protruding forward from the upper part of the main body portion 351, a lower handrail portion 361 protruding forward from the lower part of the main body portion 351, and a vertical handrail portion 362 connecting the front end portions of the upper handrail portion 360 and the lower handrail portion 361.
[0045] The upper handrail portion 360, the vertical handrail portion 362, and the lower handrail portion 361 are formed of a single bent metal pipe. The additional handrail 36 is positioned at a distance behind the elbow rest body 30 of the elbow rest handrail 3a.
[0046] The toilet handrail 1 of the present embodiment is installed, for example, beside the bed in the bedroom. A toilet 4 is installed on the toilet installation portion 20 of the base 2 of the toilet handrail 1, forming a toilet unit 100.
[0047] 3. Operational Effects In the toilet unit 100 of the present embodiment described above, when the user sits on the toilet seat 41 of the toilet 4 and spreads their legs, the legs can be spread into the leg recesses 32 of the respective support body 311 of the pair of left and right elbow rest handrails 3a. Therefore, in the toilet unit 100 of the present embodiment, it is easier to spread the legs compared to the case where the respective support body 311 of the pair of left and right elbow rest handrails 3a extends linearly in the vertical direction. As a result, in the toilet unit 100 of the present embodiment, the sitting posture of the user is likely to be stable, it is easier for the user to apply force during defecation, and it is also easier to assist in wiping the buttocks and the like.
[0048] Further, in the toilet unit 100 of the present embodiment, since the respective support body 311 of the pair of left and right elbow rest handrails 3a is formed of a single rod-shaped member that is bent, the support portion 31 with the leg recess 32 can be formed with a simple structure. Also, it is difficult to form a corner in a part of the longitudinal direction of the support body 311, and since the support body 311 has a smooth outer surface over its entire length, it is easy for the user to grasp the support body 311 and move it in the vertical direction, and it is also difficult for the user's body or clothes to get caught on the support body 311.
[0049] Further, in the toilet unit 100 of the present embodiment, since the upper straight portion 314 of the support body 311 can support the elbow rest body 30 to be long in the front-rear direction, it is easy to stably support the elbow rest body 30.
[0050] In addition, in the toilet unit 100 of the present embodiment, since the distance L2 between the support body 311 of the pair of left and right elbow rests 3a is longer than the distance L1 between the pair of column bodies 331 of the rear handrail 3b, in this respect as well, it is easier for the user sitting on the toilet seat 41 to open their legs.
[0051] In addition, in the toilet unit 100 of the present embodiment, since the support columns 310 of the pair of left and right elbow rests 3a are located below the central portion in the front-rear direction of the elbow rest body 30, it is easy to support the elbow rest body 30 in a well-balanced manner.
[0052] 4. Modification Subsequently, modifications of the toilet handrail 1 and the toilet unit 100 of the above-described embodiment will be described. Each of the following modifications can be appropriately combined.
[0053] The toilet installation part 20 only needs to be one on which the toilet 4 is installed, and it is not limited to the whole of the toilet 4, and only a part (for example, the front part) may be installed.
[0054] The handrail 3 only needs to have at least one elbow rest 3a, and it may have only one of the pair of left and right elbow rests 3a.
[0055] In addition, the handrail 3 does not necessarily have to have a rear handrail 3b. In this case, the toilet 4 may be provided with a backrest.
[0056] The support part 31 only needs to be one in which a leg recess 32 recessed rearward is provided in the upper part of the support part 31, and is not limited to the structure shown in FIG. 1 and the like. For example, the support part 31 does not necessarily have to have a rod-shaped support body 311, and may be provided in other shapes such as a plate shape, and the leg recess 32 may be provided on the front surface thereof.
[0057] Further, the retreat portion 313 is not limited to the structure shown in FIG. 3 and the like, and may have other shapes capable of forming the leg recess 32. For example, the retreat portion 313 may be provided in an L shape when viewed from the side. Note that the support portion main body 311 does not have to be composed of a single bent metal pipe, and may be composed of a plurality of straight metal pipes fixed to each other by welding or the like. Further, the support portion main body 311 is not limited to a cylindrical pipe, and may be composed of a solid metal rod. Further, the support portion main body 311 is not limited to being made of metal, and may be formed of other materials such as synthetic resin.
[0058] Further, the retreat portion 313 does not have to have a linear intermediate portion 3132 between the lower curved portion 3130 and the upper curved portion 3131, and the lower curved portion 3130 and the upper curved portion 3131 may be directly continuous. Further, the intermediate portion 3132 does not have to be linear, and may be curved in an arc shape or the like.
[0059] Further, the support portion main body 311 does not have to have the upper straight portion 314, and the upper end portion of the retreat portion 313 may be fixed to the elbow rest main body 30 to support the elbow rest main body 30.
[0060] The rear handrail 3b only needs to be located relatively rearward with respect to the toilet installation portion 20, and the entire rear handrail 3b does not have to be located rearward of the toilet installation portion 20. For example, the rear handrail 3b may be provided such that a pair of left and right column portions 33 are located on the left and right of the rear portion of the toilet installation portion 20, and a U-shaped connecting portion 34 that opens forward in a plan view may be bridged over the upper end portions of the pair of left and right column portions 33. Also in this case, the support portion main bodies 311 of the pair of elbow rest handrails 3a are provided so as to be located outside the pair of left and right column portions 33 in the left-right direction.
[0061] (Summary) As in the above-described embodiment and its modified example, the toilet handrail (1) of the first aspect has the following configuration.
[0062] That is, the toilet armrest (1) of the first aspect includes a base (2) placed on the floor and an armrest (3) installed on the base (2). The base (2) has a toilet installation portion (20) where the toilet (4) is installed.

[0063] In the toilet armrest (1) of the first aspect having the above - described configuration, when a user sitting on the toilet seat (41) of the toilet (4) opens their legs, the legs can be opened into the leg recess (32) of the support portion (31) of the elbow rest armrest (3a). Therefore, in the toilet armrest (1) of the first aspect, it is easy for the user sitting on the toilet seat (41) of the toilet (4) to open their legs.
[0064] Also, as in the above - described embodiment and its modification, the toilet armrest (1) of the second aspect additionally includes the following configuration in addition to the configuration of the first aspect.
[0065] That is, in the toilet armrest (1) of the second aspect, the leg recess (32) is provided at a height position corresponding to the seat surface of the toilet seat (41) of the toilet (4) installed in the toilet installation portion (20) of the support portion (31).
[0066] In the toilet armrest (1) of the second aspect having the above - described configuration, since the leg recess (32) is at a height position corresponding to the seat surface of the toilet seat (41), it is easy for the user sitting on the toilet seat (41) to open their legs into the leg recess (32).
[0067] Also, as in the above - described embodiment and its modification, the toilet armrest (1) of the third aspect additionally includes the following configuration in addition to the configuration of the first or second aspect.
[0068] That is, in the handrail (1) for a toilet of the third aspect, the support portion (31) includes a column (310) installed on the base (2) and a rod-shaped support portion main body (311) supported by the column (310). The support portion main body (311) includes a straight portion (312) that constitutes the lower portion of the support portion main body (311) and extends linearly in the vertical direction, and a retreat portion (313) that is continuous with the upper end of the straight portion (312) and extends upward at a position behind the front end of the straight portion (312). The retreat portion (313) forms a recess for inserting a leg (32).
[0069] In the handrail (1) for a toilet of the third aspect having the above configuration, a recess for inserting a leg (32) can be formed by a partially retracted portion (that is, the retreat portion 313) of the rod-shaped support portion main body (311), and the support portion (31) with the recess for inserting a leg (32) can have a simple structure.
[0070] Also, like the above-described embodiment and its modification, the handrail (1) for a toilet of the fourth aspect additionally includes the following configuration in addition to the configuration of the third aspect.
[0071] That is, in the handrail (1) for a toilet of the fourth aspect, the support portion main body (311) further includes an upper straight portion (314) that is continuous with the upper end of the retreat portion (313) and extends linearly in the front-rear direction to support the elbow rest main body (30).
[0072] In the handrail (1) for a toilet of the fourth aspect having the above configuration, the elbow rest main body (30) can be supported longitudinally in the front-rear direction by the upper straight portion (314) that extends linearly in the front-rear direction, and the elbow rest main body (30) can be stably supported.
[0073] Also, like the above-described one embodiment and its modification, the handrail (1) for a toilet of the fifth aspect additionally includes the following configuration in addition to the configuration of the fourth aspect.
[0074] That is, in the handrail (1) for a toilet of the fifth aspect, the retreating portion (313) includes an arc-shaped lower curved portion (3130) continuous with the upper end of the straight portion (312) and an arc-shaped upper curved portion (3131) continuous with the rear end of the upper straight portion (314).
[0075] In the handrail (1) for a toilet of the fifth aspect having the above configuration, the retreating portion (313) is continuous with the straight portion (312) and the upper straight portion (314) via arc-shaped curved portions (3130, 3131). Therefore, in the handrail (1) for a toilet of the fifth aspect, corners are less likely to be formed at the boundary between the straight portion (312) and the retreating portion (313) and at the boundary between the retreating portion (313) and the upper straight portion (314). As a result, in the handrail (1) for a toilet of the fifth aspect, it is easier for the user to grasp the support body (311), and it is less likely for the user's body or clothes to get caught on the support body (311).
[0076] Also, as in the above-described embodiment and its modified example, the toilet unit (100) of the sixth aspect includes a handrail (1) for a toilet of any one of the first to fifth aspects and a toilet (4) installed in the toilet installation portion (20) of the handrail (1) for a toilet.
