armrests armrests armrest first centring members 22 from thesecond centring members 23. - Alternatively, the operator rotates the
handle 19 decoupling the lockingpin 21 to allow the free sliding of thearmrest - A further alternative consists in the possibility of the operator to rotate the
armrest armrest rotation pin 28 by applying suitable force and thepin 32 simultaneously slides in thecurvilinear slot 31 until it reaches the end stop point allowing the passage of thearmrest - This allows easy access for the user, in particular the removal, sliding or rotation of the armrest facilitate access to users with challenged mobility.
- Upon allowing access to the user, the
armrest first centring members 22 into thesecond centring members 23, or thearmrest opposite armrest pin 21 couples with thehandle 19 or with the fixingmember 24, thus guaranteeing the stability of thearmrest rotatable armrest armrest rotation pin 28 and thepin 32 once again slides in thecurvilinear slot 31 until it reaches an end of thecurvilinear slot 31 corresponding to a substantially horizontal position. - The
hair washing sink 5 normally has a configuration in which the projectingportion 12 is in a front position. In case it is required to wash the hair people with challenged mobility, for example disabled people, the operator manually rotates thehair washing sink 5 around the vertical axis, preferably by an angle of 90°, so as to move it to a lateral position. The mobile ring 7 slides on the fixedring 8 until thestop pin 10 abuts against an end of therespective slot 9. - The
hair washing sink 5 is also adjusted height-wise according to the height of the operator by actuating suitable buttons of the control unit which actuate the lever system. The inclination of thehair washing sink 5 with respect to a substantially horizontal plane is manually adjusted by the operator. - The hairdresser's chair according to the present invention attains the object of guaranteeing higher accessibility for people with challenged mobility.
- Due to the possibility of easily removing at least one armrest or alternatively sliding laterally with respect to the at least one armrest, or also rotating an armrest on a substantially vertical plane, the chair actually guarantees easy access for people with challenged mobility, such as the elderly or disabled. Actually, there often arises the need for large space to guarantee a correct positioning of the aforementioned people on the seat and the movement of at least one armrest implies absence of hindrance on one side of the chair.
- An aspect to be taken into account lies in the fact that the armrest is anchored to the support structure through the locking pin when aligned to the opposite armrest, thus considerably stabilising the armrest in case of transverse stress.
- A peculiarity of the present invention lies in the possibility of changing the configuration of the hair washing sink so as to easily wash the hair of people with challenged mobility. The rotation of the hair washing sink preferably by an angle of 90° allows the projecting portion for resting the neck of the user to take a lateral position with ensuing possibility of avoiding positioning the user on the seat of the chair.
- In case of disabled people requiring a wheelchair for movement, this characteristic is particularly advantageous in that the wheelchair can be easily brought close to the hair washing sink.
- It should be taken into account that the movement of the hair washing sink and the armrest are carried out manually in a simple and quick manner through mechanisms that do not require particular maintenance.
- An additional contribution to the user's comfort lies in the adjustment of the inclination of the sink to suit different needs.
- A further advantage of the present invention lies in the characteristics of high ergonomic level of the chair in that it allows adjusting the height of the chair to suit the height of the operator thus considerably facilitating the work of the operator. Actually, the operator may take a comfortable position for example by positioning the sink at the desired height thus implying considerable benefit in terms of reducing fatigue.
- The chair, described by way of example, may be subjected to numerous modifications and variants according to various needs.
- Basically, the implementation of the invention, the materials used as well as the shape and dimensions may vary according to needs.
- Should the technical characteristics mentioned in the claims be followed by reference signs, these reference signs shall be deemed to have been included solely for the purpose of increasing the understanding of the claims and thus shall not be deemed to limit the object of the elements identified by such reference signs by way of example.
