Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an indoor walking safety support and handrail capable of providing a handrail by simply inserting the upper and lower parts of a commercially available pole into a cap bracket on the side of a door frame that fits the upper and lower parts of the pole temporarily installed between the door frame and the floor, and fixing the cap bracket to the floor. By providing a plurality of them at the corners of the room and in the middle of the door frame, the elderly and disabled can place their hands on the pole when moving in the room or opening and closing the shoji door, feeling safe. Also, by providing a chain hook band at the upper middle position of the pole and a chain whose length can be adjusted according to the site between the poles, walking in the room can be assisted safely while holding the chain, and the pole and chain can be easily removed when they temporarily become an obstacle.

Background Art

[0002] Conventionally, there were handrails fixed to the pillars at the corners of the room with wood screws or the like and installed from the ceiling to the floor.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0003] Therefore, there were the following problems. (a) When a person becomes disabled or elderly, they feel safe holding onto a nearby handrail when moving, standing up, or sitting, and it is easy to place their hand on a nearby handrail. The present invention has been made to solve these problems.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0004] The tension pole is installed between the lintel, sill, and floor of the room. The upper end of the pole is supported by a clawed base plate that is inserted into the gap between the lintel and the wall rail. The projection on the base plate of the lintel fixing cap bracket is struck with a hammer or similar tool to insert the claw into the gap between the lintel and the wall rail, fixing the cap bracket which becomes one with the base plate. The claw on the bottom of the floor cap bracket is folded with the sill and inserted into the gap between the sill and the floorboard to fix the floor cap bracket. The lower end of the pole is placed in the floor cap bracket and the safety tube for raising and lowering the pole is inserted from the top of the pole. The poles are fitted into the lintel cap brackets, and safety tubes are inserted into the caps at the top and bottom of the independent poles to stabilize them. Multiple pole handrails can be easily installed between the lintel and the sill. Additionally, a chain hook band, which also serves as a pole loosening prevention device, is fixed to the middle of the pole via a screw. A chain of adjustable length can be attached to the hooks on both sides, and by placing the chain between the poles, one can move safely around the room while holding onto the chain. The structure also allows for easy removal of the poles and chains when they temporarily become an obstacle. The above features make these indoor walking safety support pillars and auxiliary handrails safe. [Effects of the Invention]

[0005] This indoor walking support and handrail system allows you to easily install a handrail by simply inserting the top and bottom of a commercially available tension pole (temporarily installed between the lintel and floor) into side cap brackets for the lintel and fixed cap brackets for the floor. By installing multiple poles in corners of a room and between the lintel and threshold, it provides safety for the elderly and disabled when moving around the room or opening and closing sliding doors. Additionally, by attaching a chain hook band at the upper middle position of the pole and connecting it to the poles with an adjustable chain, you can use the chain for support while walking, providing safe assistance for walking around the room. The poles and chains can also be easily removed when they temporarily become an obstacle. Furthermore, the chains can be used to hang laundry for indoor drying. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Figure 5] This is a plan view of the floor fixing cap bracket component of the present invention. [Figure 6] This is a side view showing the combination of the present invention's components, the lintel fixing cap bracket and the floor fixing cap bracket, with the upper and lower ends of the pole fitted together to form a single unit. [Figure 7] This diagram shows an example of the use of the present invention, which involves installing multiple indoor walking safety support posts and auxiliary handrail posts between the lintels and sills of shoji screens, etc. [Figure 8] This is a diagram of the chain hook component of the present invention. [Figure 9] This diagram shows an example of use in which the pole support members of the present invention are installed on both sides between the lintel and the sill (floorboard), and a chain of a certain length is attached to a chain hook fixed to the pole, allowing the length of the chain to be adjusted to suit the site. [Figure 10] This is a plan view showing an example of using the present invention's indoor walking safety support column and auxiliary handrail installed in a room. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0007] The tension pole is installed between the lintel, sill, and floor of the room. The upper end of the pole is supported by a clawed base plate that is inserted into the gap between the lintel and the wall rail. The projection on the base plate of the lintel fixing cap bracket is struck with a hammer or similar tool to insert the claw into the gap between the lintel and the wall rail, fixing the cap bracket which becomes one with the base plate. The claw on the bottom of the floor cap bracket is folded with the sill and inserted into the gap between the sill and the floorboard to fix the floor cap bracket. The lower end of the pole is placed in the floor cap bracket and the safety tube for raising and lowering the pole is inserted from the top of the pole. The poles are fitted into the lintel cap brackets, and safety tubes are inserted into the caps at the top and bottom of the independent poles to stabilize them. Multiple pole handrails can be easily installed between the lintel and the sill. Additionally, a chain hook band, which also serves as a pole loosening prevention device, is fixed to the middle of the pole via a screw. A chain of adjustable length can be attached to the hooks on both sides, and by placing the chain between the poles, one can move safely around the room while holding onto the chain. The structure also allows for easy removal of the poles and chains when they temporarily become an obstacle. The present invention has the configuration described above. When using this, tap the projection on the base plate of the door frame fixing cap bracket with a hammer or similar tool, insert the claw part into the gap between the door frame and the lintel, and fix it in place. Fold the claw part of the floor cap bracket against the sill and insert it into the gap in the floor to fix it in place. Fit the safety tube inserted into the pole into the cap brackets at the top and bottom of the pole to stabilize the pole, and the pole handrail can be easily installed between the door frame and the sill. Additionally, a chain hook band, which also serves to prevent the pole from loosening, is fixed to the boundary between the top and bottom of the pole via a screw, and a chain of appropriate length is attached to the hooks on the left and right of the pole. By placing your hand on the chain stretched between the poles, you can move around the room safely, and the pole and chain can be easily removed when they temporarily become an obstacle. This is an indoor walking safety support column and auxiliary handrail. [Explanation of Symbols]
