Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a care appliance mechanism for the disabled that can be used when a caregiver holds and cares for infants to lower elementary school disabled persons, bathes them, or easily transports them in a free-hand state.

Background Art

[0002] Conventionally, as tools used when a caregiver holds and cares for or transports infants to lower elementary school disabled persons, there are those provided with handles that are easy for the caregiver to grip on a cage-shaped disabled person storage device formed to hold the disabled person, and those using a shoulder harness to expand a bellows-shaped folded main body and wrap the disabled person to hold it in front of the caregiver's torso (see Patent Document 1).

[0003] The hugging device described in Patent Document 1 unfolds a cloth main body folded in a bellows shape to wrap the torso of the disabled person, and forms a loop with connecting members provided at the respective ends of band-shaped shoulder harnesses extending one by one in the vertical direction from the center of the main body, and hangs it on the caregiver's shoulders to hold the disabled person in contact with the caregiver's torso.

[0004] Therefore, the hugging device supports the disabled person with a single shoulder harness, and it is difficult to continuously support the disabled person with the shoulder harness due to the burden on the caregiver and the strength of the shoulder harness, and it is necessary for the caregiver to additionally support the lower part of the disabled person's torso with both hands.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0006] However, in the event that it becomes necessary to urgently move a disabled person during the occurrence of an emergency disaster or the like, a situation may arise where it is necessary to bring along tools and daily necessities for caregiving together with the disabled person. In such a situation, the caregiver must take evacuation actions while carrying the disabled person and various caregiving tools etc. in both hands.

[0007] Therefore, there is a need for a tool that allows for evacuation actions while securely holding the disabled person with free hands. However, in reality, there is no tool that can easily and safely perform various operations with free hands while holding the disabled person, and there has been a demand for the development of a caregiving tool that can perform evacuation actions while safely protecting the disabled person without imposing an unreasonable load on the caregiver's body.

[0008] The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and is composed of a disabled person receptor configured to have a substantially U-shaped cross-section and a length approximately equal to the body length of the disabled person, and to be positioned in front of the caregiver's body, a caregiver wearing and fixing tool that can be worn near the waist of the disabled person in order to dispose and fix the disabled person receptor in front of the caregiver's body, and a connection mechanism portion for integrally connecting the disabled person receptor and the caregiver wearing and fixing tool, thereby solving the above problems.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0009] In order to solve the above conventional problems, the caregiving tool mechanism for disabled persons according to the present invention is composed of a disabled person receptor configured to have a substantially U-shaped cross-section and a length approximately equal to the body length of the disabled person, and to be positioned in front of the caregiver's body, a caregiver wearing and fixing tool for wearing near the waist of the disabled person in order to dispose and fix the disabled person receptor in front of the caregiver's body, and a connection mechanism portion for integrally connecting the disabled person receptor and the caregiver wearing and fixing tool. The caregiver wearing and fixing tool is composed of a winding band portion configured to be wound around the caregiver's waist and fixed. The disabled person receptor is composed of a head receiving portion formed at the starting end for placing the head of the disabled person and a crotch supporting portion formed at the terminal end for supporting the crotch of the disabled person. The connection mechanism portion is characterized by being composed of left and right rear bands, left and right front bands, etc.

[0010] In addition, the caregiver-worn fixing device is formed by folding the covering sheet in half lengthwise, covering the head, and forming a head protruding hole in the covering sheet so that the caregiver's head protrudes from the folded part, and left and right back bands extending from the folded part of the double-folded sheet along the back surface, and a relay ring for branching the left and right back bands to the left and right on the back surface of the covering sheet of the caregiver-worn fixing device.

[0011] In addition, one of the front bands extending from the left and right shoulders, where the left and right back bands of the double-folded caregiver-worn fixing device branch to the left and right via the relay ring, is detachably connected to the end of the disabled person receiving body, and the other is detachably connected to the start of the disabled person receiving body, which is also a feature.

[0012] In addition, the disabled person receiving body and the caregiver-worn fixing device are mainly composed of a mesh-like synthetic resin material, so that the disabled person can take a bath together with the caregiver during care, which is also a feature.

Effects of the Invention

[0013] According to the invention of claim 1, the disabled person receiving body has a substantially U-shaped cross-section and constitutes a head receiving part at the start end and a crotch crack part at the end as the substantially body length of the disabled person. The caregiver-worn fixing device is constituted by a winding band part configured to be wound around the caregiver's waist and fixed. Thus, the caregiver can move in a posture of firmly holding the disabled person, so that evacuation behavior accompanied by the disabled person in an emergency situation becomes possible. Moreover, since the disabled person can be held with a free hand and necessary tools can be carried, there is an effect that the disabled person can be safely and surely evacuated.

[0014] Furthermore, since the caregiver-worn fixing device is a winding band part configured to be wound around the caregiver's waist and fixed, there is an effect that the disabled person receiving body can be surely held at the waist part of the caregiver, and evacuation behavior can be easily performed in a free hand state without imposing an extreme load on the caregiver's body.

[0015] Claim 1According to the invention, the caregiver wearing fixture is formed by folding the covering sheet in half front to back, covering the head, and forming a head protruding hole in the covering sheet for the caregiver's head to protrude from the folded part. It also includes left and right back bands extending from the folded part along the back surface, and a relay ring for branching the left and right back bands left and right on the back of the covering sheet of the caregiver wearing fixture. One of the left and right back bands branches left and right through the relay ring, and its left and right one end is detachably connected to the end of the disabled person receiving body along the waist of the caregiver. The left and right other ends of the left and right back bands are detachably connected to the starting end of the disabled person receiving body along the waist of the caregiver through the relay ring. By this configuration, the covering sheet can be securely worn and held on the upper body of the caregiver. The left and right back bands are branched at the back of the covering sheet by the relay ring, and the end and start of the bands are connected to the end and start of the disabled person receiving body. Thus, the disabled person receiving body, on which the entire weight of the disabled person is applied, can be securely supported by each band, and there is an effect that stable transportation and care of the disabled person can be performed.

[0016] Claim 2 According to the invention, the left and right back bands extending from the left and right shoulders through the relay ring of the folded caregiver wearing fixture are used as left and right front bands. One of the left and right front bands is detachably connected above the end of the disabled person receiving body, and the other is detachably connected above the starting end of the disabled person receiving body. Since the left and right front bands extend from the left and right shoulders of the folded covering sheet and are connected to the disabled person receiving body, the total weight of the disabled person receiving body can be received by the shoulders of the covering sheet, that is, the left and right shoulders of the caregiver and the left and right back bands at the waist of the caregiver. There is an effect that it can be stably received by the whole body of the caregiver without imposing a large weight load on the caregiver.

[0017] According to the invention of claim 4, the disabled person receptor and the caregiver wearing fixture are mainly composed of a mesh-shaped synthetic resin material, so that the caregiver can take a bath together with the disabled person during care. This enables not only the simple transportation of the disabled person and care while holding them, but also the bathing care, which is considered to impose the greatest burden on the caregiver in disabled person care, to be carried out while having skinship with the caregiver. For the disabled person, it is possible to gain trust and peace of mind in the caregiver, thus achieving the greatest goal for the care business.

[0027] The head receiving part main body 111 is formed in a substantially rectangular shape using a mesh-like synthetic resin material, with one side of the substantially rectangular short side as the starting end, and is shaped to bulge in an arc shape to receive the head of the disabled person. Also, the length in the longitudinal direction of the substantially rectangular shape is set to be approximately the body length of the disabled person.

[0028] The reinforcing plate 112 is formed in a shape similar to but slightly smaller than the head receiving part main body 111 using a flexible plastic plate, and a plurality of perforations are made to enhance the flexibility of the plastic plate.

[0029] The reinforcing plate 112 is attached to the surface of the head receiving part main body 111, that is, the outer surface that does not come into contact with the disabled person, by a reinforcing plate fixing band 113.

[0030] The reinforcing plate 112 attached to the head receiving part main body 111 has the effect of preventing the head receiving part main body 111 from being deformed by the load of the disabled person and becoming an eccentric load while reinforcing the head receiving part main body 111.

[0031] The reinforcing plate fixing band 113 is made of a chemical fiber material such as nylon, carbon fiber, or glass fiber with high tensile strength, and is formed so as to horizontally span three band members at a predetermined interval downward from the approximate center in the longitudinal direction of the head receiving part main body 111 in the lateral direction.

[0032] The reinforcing plate fixing band 113 can be attached so as to sandwich the reinforcing plate 112 between itself and the head receiving part main body 111.

[0033] The front connecting band 115a is formed of a chemical fiber material with high tensile strength similar to the reinforcing plate fixing band 113, and is connected to one of the reinforcing plate fixing bands 113 via a connecting fitting 114.

[0034] The front connecting band 115a is for connecting to either one of the left and right front bands 312 of a connecting mechanism part 3 for connecting a disabled person receiver 1 described later to a caregiver wearing fixture 2.

[0035] The front connecting band 115a has a receiving fitting for receiving the left and right front bands 312 at the tip and an adjuster for length adjustment in the middle part.

[0036] The front connecting band 115b is a band member extending from the left and right near the starting end where the head receiving part main body 111 bulges in an arc shape, and is formed of a chemical fiber material with high tensile strength.

[0037] The front connection band 115b is for connecting to the other side that is connected to the front connection band 115a of the left and right front bands 312 of the connection mechanism part 3 for connecting the disabled person receptor 1, which will be described later, to the caregiver wearing fixture 2.

[0038] Also, the front connection band 115b is configured to support the vicinity of the starting end of the head receiving part main body 111, that is, the vicinity of the disabled person's head, with left and right band members, and can function to hold the disabled person more stably.

[0039] The front connection band 115b has a receiving fitting for receiving the left and right front bands 312 at the tip, and an adjuster for adjusting the length in the middle part.

[0040] The back band connection part 116 is composed of a short band member made of chemical fiber material and an annular fitting attached to the tip thereof, and is provided on the left and right respectively below the front connection band 115b.

[0041] The back band connection part 116 is for connecting to one of the left and right back bands 311 of the connection mechanism part 3 for connecting the disabled person receptor 1, which will be described later, to the caregiver wearing fixture 2.

[0042] The crotch split part 12 is composed of a crotch split part main body 121 formed in a substantially rectangular shape so as to extend the head receiving part main body 111 downward, 121 adhesive forming parts 122 extending and formed on the left and right edge parts of the crotch split part main body, a back band connection part 123 horizontally installed below the crotch split part main body 121, and a front connection band 124 provided below the crotch split part main body 121 and extending downward.

[0043] The crotch split part main body 121 is formed in a substantially rectangular shape using a mesh-like synthetic resin material so as to extend from the head receiving part main body 111, and supports the buttocks and the back of the thighs of the disabled person.

[0044] The adhesive forming parts 122 extend from the left and right edge parts of the crotch split part main body 121 respectively, and are formed in a substantially rectangular shape using a mesh-like synthetic resin material.

[0045] In addition, each of the adhesion forming portions 122 has a hook-and-loop fastener 122a on its respective surface, that is, the entire surface that does not come into contact with the disabled person, and can be assembled into a cage shape by adhering to the hook-and-loop fasteners 131 attached to the left and right wall portions 13 described later.

[0046] The back band connecting portion 123 is a band member that is horizontally spanned below the crotch split portion main body 121 and is formed of a chemical fiber material with high tensile strength, and has fittings at both ends for connecting to the left and right back bands 311 of the connecting mechanism portion 3 for connecting the disabled person receiver 1 described later to the caregiver wearing fixture 2.

[0051] The hook-and-loop fastener 131 can be adhered to the hook-and-loop fastener 122a attached to the adhesion forming portion 122 of the crotch split portion 12, respectively, so that the disabled person receiver 1 can be assembled into a cage shape as shown in FIG. 2.

[0052] Either the hook-and-loop fastener 131 or the hook-and-loop fastener 122a of the adhesion forming portion 122 can be the male side or the female side, but as shown in FIG. 2, since the hook-and-loop fastener 131 of the left and right wall portions 13 is the surface in contact with the disabled person, it is preferably the female side.

[0053] The assembled disabled person receptor 1 has a substantially U-shaped cross-section and a length approximately equal to the body length of a lower-grade disabled person, enabling it to receive and wrap around the disabled person's body.

[0054] Also, the crotch split part 12 is raised so as to close the substantially U-shaped cross-section of the disabled person receptor 1, allowing the crotch split part main body 121 to support the back side of the upper thigh from the buttocks of the disabled person.

[0055] The front connecting band 124 is located at the center of the crotch split part 12, forming a space above the crotch split part 12 with left and right spaces. The left and right legs of the disabled person can protrude outward from the formed space to the outside of the disabled person receptor 1.

[0056] In addition, the adhesive forming part 122 is configured to have a hook-and-loop fastener 122a on the entire surface, enabling adjustment of the rising angle of the crotch split part 12.

[0057] By being able to adjust the angle, it can respond to changes in the thickness of the legs protruding from the space above the crotch split part 12, and there is an effect of reducing fatigue by periodically changing the angle of the hip joint of the disabled person.

[0058] With the disabled person receptor 1 having the above-described configuration, it can take the same posture as when a caregiver holds and lifts a disabled person in front of the body in the state of lying on their back, which is the usual way of holding and caring for a disabled person.

[0059] The disabled person can see the caregiver as usual and feel at ease. Furthermore, the load is supported by the entire disabled person receptor 1, preventing uneven loading.

[0060] On the caregiver's side, by fixing and holding the disabled person receptor 1 to the front of the body with the caregiver wearing fixture 2 and the connection mechanism part 3 to be described later, the burden of the load on the caregiver can be reduced, and there is an effect that the caregiver can always visually confirm the disabled person and is more likely to notice changes during caregiving.

[0061] · Caregiver - worn fixing device FIG. 4 shows the deployed state of the caregiver - worn fixing device, and FIGS. 5 and 6 show the worn state of the caregiver - worn fixing device respectively.

[0097] The care provider wearing fixture 2 is composed of a waist wrap belt 25 formed of a mesh material. In addition, the waist wrap belt 25 functions in the same manner as the band portion 23 described in the first embodiment.

[0098] The waist wrap belt 25 is in the shape of a substantially rectangular band, and hook-and-loop fasteners 251 are attached to both ends to form a loop.

[0099] The connection mechanism part 3 is for connecting the disabled person receptacle 1 and the caregiver's wearing fixture 2, and is composed of waist connection bands 32 extending to the left and right of the caregiver's wearing fixture 2.

[0100] Also, the waist connection band 32 functions in the same manner as the left and right back bands 311 described in the first embodiment.

[0101] That is, in the same way that the left and right back bands 311 connect to support the disabled person receptacle 1 from behind, the waist connection band 32 can connect to and support the disabled person receptacle 1 from the back of the caregiver's waist.

[0102] The waist connection band 32 is formed of a material with high tensile strength such as nylon. One end of each is sewn integrally with the caregiver's wearing fixture 2, and the other end of each is provided with a waist band fastener 321.

[0103] When wearing, the caregiver first fixes the caregiver's wearing fixture 2 to their own waist with the hook-and-loop fastener 251.

[0104] After that, the caregiver's shoulder sling band 14 of the disabled person receptacle 1 is turned to the front of the body so as to cross at the back, and the disabled person receptacle 1 is held by lowering it from the shoulder to the front of the body with the shoulder band fastener 141.

[0105] Finally, the disabled person receptacle 1 is fixed near the caregiver's waist with the waist band fastener 321 of the waist connection band 32, which is the connection mechanism part 3, and the fastener 15 provided on the disabled person receptacle 1 that mates with the waist band fastener 321.

[0106] With the above-described configuration, the caregiver can stably hold the disabled person receptacle 1 containing the care recipient by holding it dispersed at three points: the shoulder, the back, and the waist, and can hold the care recipient in a stable non-releasing state.

[0107] Furthermore, by simply making the caregiver wearing fixture 2 in a belt shape, it becomes easy to wear, and even in an emergency, it can be worn immediately and the care recipient can be held.

[0108] Also, the shoulder pads 142 can reduce the fatigue on the shoulders and back where the most load is applied, enabling long - term care.

[0109] Also, the disabled person receptacle 1 has a bilaterally symmetric shape in the deployed state. That is, since each fastening part is provided on both the left and right wall parts 13, it can be connected to the caregiver's body in either the left or right direction.

[0110] As another example, it is also conceivable to configure a cushioning material made of urethane, cotton, etc. to be removable on the back side of the disabled person receptacle 1, that is, the surface in contact with the disabled person.

[0111] Also, the various effects described above are merely an enumeration of the most suitable effects resulting from the present invention, and the effects of the present invention are not limited to those described in this embodiment.
