It is inserted and fixed.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 7, there is a slight gap between the back surface of the base 33 with the auxiliary handle and the upper surface of the housing 1 and the inclined portion of the one side wall 7 to prevent hot water from rising onto the base 33 with the auxiliary handle. It has space.

Function: A patient who wishes to receive hydrotherapy sits on the seat 6, dips his or her lower legs into the warm water in the bathtub 3, and assumes a posture while grasping the handle 19. The practitioner operates various switches on the operation box 21 to operate the pump 5 to jet hot water from the nozzle 9, and applies the jetted hot water to the patient's lower limbs to perform hydrotherapy including heat and pine surge effects.

Tighten the knob bolt 12 of the base 6.
The seat 6 is fixed to the casing 1 by pressing the upper edge 32 of the casing 1 with the tip of the holder. When the knob bolt 12 is loosened, the seat 6 is released from being fixed to the housing 1 and can slide on the upper surface of the upper edge 32.

When applying hot water jets to the front of the lower limbs in a sitting position, fix the seat 6 at the rear of the housing 1, that is, at the position on the pump installation part 4 side. is fixed at an appropriate position in the front of the housing 1, that is, on the operation box 21 side.

The handle 19 is something that the patient grasps in order to stabilize the upper body.By moving the handle 19 to a position where the patient can easily grasp it and tightening the handle knob bolt 17, the handle 1
Fix 9.

The handle 22 is operated to direct the hot water jet to the treatment area of the lower limb.

The pump 5 sucks the hot water inside the bathtub 3 from the drain port 10, pressurizes the sucked hot water, and sends the pressurized hot water to the nozzle 9.
It gushes back into the bathtub 3.

The movement of the pedestal 25 with an inclined surface in the second embodiment is performed after removing the knob bolt 12 and removing the pedestal 25 with an inclined surface from the casing 1. After moving the inclined surface base 25 to an appropriate position on the housing 1, tighten the knob bolt 12 again.
are screwed into a plurality of pairs of appropriate screw holes 26 on the upper surface of the casing 1 to fix the inclined surface base 25.

To move the handle 19, loosen the handle knob bolt 17, pull the handle 19 upwards and remove it from the hole 27, and insert the pair of holes 2 drilled at the other longitudinal end of the housing 1.
This is done by inserting it into 7. After inserting the handle 19 into the hole 27, the handle knob bolt 17 is tightened to fix the handle 19.

The movement of the auxiliary handle-equipped base 33 in the third embodiment is performed by removing the knob bolt 12 and removing the auxiliary handle-equipped base 33 from the housing 1. After moving the pedestal with auxiliary handle 33 to an appropriate position on the housing 1, tighten the knob bolt 1 again.
2 are screwed into multiple pairs of appropriate screw holes 26 drilled in both longitudinal side walls 14 of the housing 1 to form a base 3 with an auxiliary handle.
Attach 3.

The auxiliary handle 29 is grasped as necessary when the patient gets on and off the pedestal 33 with the auxiliary handle and when the patient sits on the pedestal 33 with the auxiliary handle and receives treatment.

Effects of the invention The seat on which the patient sits, which is installed on the top of the housing, can be slid in the longitudinal direction of the housing and fixed at any desired position. If the patient sits on the pedestal facing the front of the casing, the hot water jet can be applied to the front of the lower limbs. A jet of hot water can be applied to the surface. Therefore, in a partial bathing device having a nozzle on one wall of the bathtub, the patient can easily apply jets of hot water to both the front and back of the lower limbs while sitting in a comfortable posture, which is extremely beneficial for medical treatment.

In addition, rails are provided on both sides of the casing, and the handles are slidably fixed to the rails, so the handles can be easily slid and fixed freely, so the handles do not become an obstacle to bathing patients. By grasping the handle, it becomes easier for the patient to get on and off the seat, and by positioning the handle in accordance with individual differences in patient posture, the patient's posture during treatment becomes more comfortable.

Furthermore, the seat can be moved easily by simply loosening the knob bolt, and the work load on the practitioner is light, making it very convenient to use.

In addition, the pedestal is configured to be able to slide in the longitudinal direction of the housing, be fixed, or be freely tightened by loosening the knob bolts.
The seat can be fixed at an appropriate position according to the patient's body shape, allowing the patient to take a comfortable posture for treatment.

In addition, because there is a gap between the hot water surface and the pedestal, even if the hot water surface ripples due to the jet stream, the pedestal serves to hold down the crest of the waves, and it also prevents the waves from running onto the pedestal. , you will not suffer damage from getting your lower body clothing wet due to the waves.

In addition, if the seat is a pedestal with an inclined surface extending from the horizontal plane, it will support the patient's rear thighs and at the same time shield the lower half of the body from clothes from splashing hot water in the bathtub. can prevent it from getting wet.

In addition, if the seat is equipped with auxiliary handles that have auxiliary handles on both ends of the horizontal surface of the seat, the patient can grab the auxiliary handles when getting on and off the seat with auxiliary handles, making getting on and off easier. can. Furthermore, during bathing treatment, in addition to the action of grasping the handle, the patient can also grasp the auxiliary handle as needed, allowing the patient to take a more comfortable posture.
