In this publication, a guide path for guiding the cleaning table is provided between the cleaning table and the bath so that the cleaning table can approach and separate in parallel to the bath, and the cleaning table can be brought close to or separate from the bath as needed. There is disclosed a progressive bathing apparatus having a configuration of changing the temperature.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION Problems to be Solved by the Invention The above-described configuration of the conventional progressive bathing apparatus has a guide path between the bathtub and the washing table so that the washing table can move in parallel to the bathtub. This guideway has the drawback that it may be an obstacle for a caregiver to pass through the passage between the bathtub and the wash basin.

Further, in the past, a large pressing force was required for lateral movement of this type of washing table because the casters are subject to the weight of the bather and the like.
Therefore, there is a demand for a device that can reduce the labor of the caregiver with respect to the lateral movement of the washing table.

The guideway described above merely restricts the direction of movement so that the washing table that slides on the floor by casters can move in parallel when moving laterally, so the above-mentioned pressing force to be imposed on the caregiver can be reduced. is not.

Further, if the floor surface is uneven, there is a problem that the bather feels uncomfortable due to vibration when moving.

Further, in the conventional apparatus, it is general that both of the contact points, which contact each other when the bath and the wash table come close to each other, are provided with a hook portion that hooks both of them. Generally, the hooking part of the bathtub is projected horizontally from the side part of the bathtub, and in the case of this conventional device, for the caregiver who assists the bather from around the bathtub, the protruding hooking part is Has a problem that it interferes with the assistance work.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and a saucer-movable wash basin that facilitates bathing assistance work without causing obstacles in the passage between the bath tub and the wash basin. Is intended to provide.

That is, according to the present invention, the tray movement is constructed by placing the tray 1 for receiving the hot water used for washing through the sliding mechanism 4 on the upper portion of the support frame 3 standing on the floor so as to be slidable in the left and right direction. It is a washbasin.

Action The tray 1 provided on the upper portion of the washing table 5 is supported by the sliding mechanism 4 with respect to the support frame 3 located at the lower portion of the washing table 5, so that it can be freely moved horizontally and with a slight pushing force in the left-right direction. You can move.

In the bathroom, there is a washbasin 5 and a space for assistance beside it, and a bathtub 1
7 is installed.

The caregiver pushes the tray 1 toward the bathtub 17 side, and after movement, the tray 1 stops at the moving end in the state of approaching the bathtub 17.

Next, the stretcher 7 placed on the saucer 1 is pushed above the bathtub 17 to put the bather on the bathtub 17 together with the stretcher 7, and then the bathtub 17 is raised to take a bath.

After moving the stretcher 7 onto the bathtub 17, the tray 1 is pulled in a direction of separating it from the bathtub 17, and the tray 1 is moved to the bathtub 1.
Separate from 7.

Since the sliding mechanism 4 holds the penetrating rail 9 of the sliding frame 10 in the guide path 8 in an inserted state, the tray 1 is moved by a moving margin of the penetrating rail length by a slight pushing force. .

Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The tray 1 shown in FIG. 1 includes a support frame 3 that is erected on a leg frame 2.
Is supported by the sliding mechanism 4 on the upper part of.

A saucer 1 is provided on an upper part of a washing table 5 for pre-washing a bather, and a stretcher rail 6 is provided on the saucer 1 and a stretcher 7 on which a bather is placed is placed on the stretcher rail 6. The tray 1 provided below the stretcher rail 6 is a tray for receiving the hot water used for washing the bather, and the stretcher rail 6 is mounted on the support frame 3 which is erected on the leg frame 2 together with the tray 1 via the sliding mechanism 4. Supported.

The sliding mechanism 4 has two guide tubes 8 having a linear bearing 18 built in at the upper end of the support frame 3 arranged in a row, and two rows of the guide tubes are arranged side by side. 9 are respectively inserted, and sliding frames 10 which are located above the through rail 9 and parallel to the through rail 9 and both ends of which are bent downward are fixed to both ends of the through rail 9. It

A bathtub 17 is juxtaposed beside the washing table 5 with an appropriate gap for assistance, and when the tray 1 approaches and separates from the bathtub 17, the bathtub 17 and the tray 1 always move in parallel. The sliding mechanism 4 is configured as described above.

The locking mechanism 11 for preventing the sliding of the sliding frame 10 includes a locking hole plate 13 which is formed by forming a flat bar in the shape of a gently sloping mountain and having a hole 12 at the top thereof and which is mounted on the support frame 3. The lock plate 19 is horizontally mounted on the sliding frame 10 in parallel with the hole plate 13, and is provided at each of the position near the left end and the position near the right end of the lock plate 19 and the spring is always downward. 26, the lock pin 14 biased by 26, the connecting wire 15 that pulls the lock pin 14 upward by a predetermined length against the spring 26, the spring 22, the rod 24, and the cam 23, and the connecting wire 15 attracts when releasing the lock. And a release pedal 16 provided at one end of the sliding frame 10.

Immediately before moving the saucer 1 to move closer to or away from the bathtub 17, the release pedal 16 is stepped on and the lock pin 14 is opened in the hole 12.
The removal lock mechanism 11 is released.

At the moving end of the sliding frame 10 on the support frame, the lock pin 14 is automatically fitted into the hole 12 and the sliding mechanism 4 is automatically locked to the support frame 3.

Incidentally, in the first figure, 21 is a pillow, and 25 is a latching tool for latching a patient carrier (not shown).

Effect of the Invention In the present invention, the saucer provided on the upper part of the wash basin and the stretcher rail on the saucer can be moved horizontally in parallel with a sliding mechanism so that the saucer and the stretcher rail can be moved close to and away from the bathtub. Is configured.

According to the above configuration, the washbasin is placed in parallel with the bathtub.
Since there is no guideway between the washbasin and the bathtub when separating them, the caregiver can freely move around the washstand and bathtub during the bathing or cleaning work, and there are no obstacles on the floor. Since it does not exist, there is no danger of the caregiver falling over an obstacle and falling.

Further, the through rail integrally attached to the sliding frame supporting the tray is penetrated through the guide tube mounted on the upper part of the supporting frame and including the linear bearing. According to this configuration, when the tray is moved in the sliding direction to the left or right, the tray is moved by lightly pushing it, so that the labor of the helper can be reduced.

Further, since the sliding system of the conventional device in which the wheel rolls on the floor surface and slides on the washbasin is not used, the vibration generated by the unevenness of the floor surface when the washstand is moved laterally is completely excluded from the present invention. Since the saucer of the present invention does not exist and can be laterally moved without vibration, the discomfort caused by vibration given to the bather can be reduced.

In addition, generally, many conventional bathtubs have a hooking portion for hooking a washing stand on the side surface of the bathtub, but the bathtub attached to the device of the present invention is provided with this hooking portion at all. Since there is no hook, the hanger does not interfere with the caregiver who assists the bather around the bathtub, and the caregiver does not cause an accident such as hitting the hanger of the bathtub. Assistance work related to is now easier.
