Definitions

  • the invention relates to a back support for bath lifts with the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a back support is known from EP-A-0622042.
  • the support member exists from a piece of hose that can be filled with pressurized water.
  • a separate manually operated control valve is required for filling and emptying the Hose piece.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a back support of the type mentioned improve that they easily from the supported steep position in a Flat position and vice versa are moved and a disabled person this adjustment can make yourself.
  • the swivel arm represents the support member. Swivels when the backrest is swiveled up the swivel arm up and forward, with its runner in the long path section the guideway slides down until it reaches the connecting track section. At The runner supports the front end of the connecting track section Swivel arm from the backrest in the steep position. To the backrest out of this Adjusting the steep position to a flat position only requires a short one Swing stroke of the backrest forward, which brings the runner to the rear end of the Connecting rail section arrives where it after overcoming the backstop in enters the bypass section.
  • the backrest can be freely after pivot backwards into a flat position, in which they are on the wall of the Bathtub supports.
  • the rotor of the swivel arm has the bypass section pass through and is at its upper mouth in the long Track section reentered. Above this upper mouth, at which that is the long section of track in its lower area and the Branch line branched, the runner slides when swiveling the Backrest down and when lowering the backrest upwards. At the bottom The runner can only go down and in the area of the long track section Bypass section can only be moved upwards.
  • the long track section is unlimited at the top, so that supports the backrest on the floor element or the seat plate of the lift.
  • a Further development of the invention is that a locking piece in the guideway used and positively secured against shifting to a to achieve a certain flat position of the backrest with a defined angular position. Of the Runner then supports the swivel lever on the backrest using this locking piece.
  • the locking piece is preferably plate-shaped and engages transversely aligned slots of the guideway. Multiple pairs of slots can be in small Longitudinal distances are provided for a fine adjustment of the flat position the backrest.
  • the lower area of the long guideway forms with the Bypass section and the connecting section a parallelogram or also rectangular structures, the individual web sections not necessarily have to be straight.
  • the rotor is of a compression spring acted upon bolt.
  • the guideway then consists of one Groove arrangement and the backstop is through a shoulder in the groove bottom designed.
  • the groove bottoms of most of the groove arrangement lie in one A rising ramp precedes the common level and each paragraph.
  • everyone Paragraph has an at least approximately perpendicular to the groove bottom Heel area that is flush with a side surface of a subsequent one Railway section lies.
  • the end points of the Connecting track section a straight line that is aligned with the longitudinal center line of the Swivel arm encloses an angle of at most 45 °. In a preferred one Embodiment, this angle is less than 10 °.
  • the long Track section in the lower area in a short angled towards the backrest End section opens and a first backstop assigned to this mouth is and this end section in turn opens at an angle into the connecting section and a backstop is also assigned to this further outlet.
  • the short End section preferably forms a right angle with the long track section. This ensures that the backrest is forced up is stopped when the runner in the short end section of the long track section entry. The runner then arrives by turning the backrest slightly backwards to the front end of the connecting track section, where he is the backrest in the Steep position supported.
  • the to the bypass section at its mouth in The connecting path section forms a tangent with the longitudinal axis extension an angle greater than 90 ° when the runner touches this Mouth is located. This angle need only be a little larger than 90 ° in order to to avoid self-locking.
  • a particularly advantageous feature of the invention is that coaxial one of the two swivel axes, preferably the swivel arm swivel axis, a Leg spring is arranged, which is tensioned when the backrest is pivoted downward is and the spring force is sufficient to the released backrest to pivot at least approximately into the steep position.
  • the disabled needs just straighten his upper body from the lying position, giving him the Backrest thanks to the built-in spring.
  • the backrest finds hers Defined steep position by itself or when leaning the back against the backrest reached.
  • This release stroke of the backrest is particularly easy to carry out, if there is an additional, forward-facing control lever on the backrest is provided so that it is only pushed down by the disabled person needs.
  • This operating lever is preferably on the side of the backrest pivotally attached, so that it is only when needed forward to its functional position is swung out to a stop, but otherwise behind the front surface of the Backrest is hidden in a rest position.
  • the main components of a bath lifter are a floor frame 12 a Seat plate 14, a guide frame 16 and a lifting hose which can be filled with pressurized water 18.
  • a back support 20 is releasably attached on the seat plate 14.
  • the Back support 20 has a base plate 22, which is used to rest on seat plate 14 serves and in its front area a backrest 24 about a first transverse axis 26 swiveling.
  • a plate-shaped pivot arm 28 is about a second transverse axis 30 pivotally mounted in the rear area of the base plate 22 and engages with two coaxial, externally projecting bolts 32 each in groove tracks 34, the are formed on the inside on two wall webs 36, which in turn on the back of the Backrest 24 are molded or attached.
  • the groove track 34 has according to FIG. 3 shows a stepped cross section, with a shoulder 38 is formed, which is followed by a recessed area which forms the groove bottom 40.
  • the rotor 32 has a sleeve 42, which laterally from the plate-shaped Swivel arm 28 protrudes and engages in groove 34 up to shoulder 38.
  • the Sleeve 42 has a bolt 44 slidably supported by a helical compression spring 46 is pressed to the outside and with its end face on the groove bottom 40 in the recessed Groove area is present.
  • the groove track 34 has a first long track section 48 which is in the extends substantially along the backrest 24, closely adjacent and parallel to the back of the backrest.
  • This long track section 48 is somewhat below angled backwards to make room for a short subsequent connection To create end portion 50.
  • This end section 50 opens into one Connecting track section 52, which with the angled end 50 of the long Path section 48 forms an angle of about 45 °.
  • This The connecting track section 52 in turn opens at that of the backrest 24 opposite end in a bypass section 54, which is apart from Slight curvatures along the long path section 48 extends and acute angles flows into this.
  • a backstop 56 is provided which consists of a Paragraph 58 exists which extends to the groove bottom 40 and which has a ramp 60 is connected upstream.
  • each muzzle Backstop 56 must be provided.
  • the plate-shaped swivel arm 28 already has due to its gravity, a tendency to pivot towards the backrest when the runners 32 are located in the lower region of the long track section 48. If the swivel arm 28 is also equipped with a return spring, which a in exerts the same direction as the force of gravity acting swing moment the first backstops 56 at the ends of the web sections 48 and 50 and 54 omitted. Only the backstop 56 at the mouth of the Connecting track section 52 in the bypass section 54 is mandatory.
  • Figures 7 and 8 show a slightly modified groove 34 in which the long Track section 48 without the angled end section 50 directly into the Connecting track section 52 joins.
  • the groove track 34 is therefore somewhat easier but which brings with it a certain loss of comfort, because when swiveling the Backrest 24 is no longer stopped automatically, but could continue are pivoted upward until the runner 32 into the bypass section 54 reached. This can be easily prevented, however, since the backstop is overcome 56 at the end of the long path section 48, the bolts 44 of the runners 32 with audible Click into the groove. So the user is acoustically the end the swiveling movement of the backrest 24 reported, so that by immediate The runners swing back into the extension section of the connecting track section 52 slide up.
  • This extension section designated 52 ' serves the security to 24 with a slight pivoting of the backrest Do not accidentally bring swivel arm 26 into the release position.
