【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、主として身体障害者、老齢者等の身体活動が不自由な者がトイレ内の腰掛け式の便器に座って用便する場合に、その便器があるトイレ内への移動、更には便器に対する腰掛け等の動作を用便者本人が自身で無理なく、簡単に行うことができるようにした腰掛け式便器への座盤開閉式移動腰掛け装置に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来から一般家庭において、身体障害者、老齢者等の身体活動の不自由な者、特に歩行が困難な者が用便する場合、便器が設置されているトイレへの往復が非常に苦痛になるために身近に屎尿器等を置いておき、そこで済ますことが多い。ただ屎尿器等の使用は煩わしく、周囲を汚損することも度々あるために、こうした点を解消すべく例えば常時使用できるように寝室、居間等に置いておかれるプラスチック製、木製等の家具調の用便器等も提案されている。しかしながらこうした用便器を使用して誰も見ていないときに用をたしたとしても、その後片づけには他者の介助が必要であり、また周囲への気遣い、遠慮等によってその使用に苦痛を感じ、躊躇せざるを得ないことが多々ある。
【0003】
また近時は使用者に肉体的な負担をあまりかけなくて済む腰掛け式便器、いわゆる洋式便器が広く普及し一般家屋のトイレにも設置されるのが通常になりつつある。ただこの腰掛け式便器では用をたした後に立ち上がるときに身体的には負担が若干でも大きくなるために便器に関連して取り付けられる立ち上がり用の補助具が種々に提供されている。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところが屎尿器自体の使用は上述したように使用者自身にとってはあまり好まれない傾向があり、歩行が可能であればトイレに行き、そこで用を済ませたい希望を強く持っているのである。また上述した立ち上がり補助具自体はトイレへの歩行が可能な者には役立っても、歩行が困難な身体不自由者には直接に役に立つものではないのである。
【0005】
そこで本発明は叙上のような従来存した諸事情に鑑み創出されたもので、歩行が困難な身体不自由者、重病者等でも腰掛け式の便器に座ることができれば、その座ったままの腰掛けた状態で一人ででもトイレに行くことができ、しかも便器の直上位置にまで用便者を案内させて便器に直接に跨がせて用を済ますことができるようにし、しかも汚損等の虞も少なく、清潔に使用でき、使用者の日常活動の場所例えば居間、寝室等に置いておいても邪魔にならないようにした腰掛け式便器への座盤開閉式移動腰掛け装置を提供することを目的とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上述した目的を達成するため、本発明にあっては、腰掛け式の便器Tの便座部を跨いで便器Tに嵌め合わせ装着可能にした台車本体2の上部に用便・使用者が腰掛け可能な腰掛け面(6)を設けると共に、移動可能に形成した用便台車1と、この用便台車1の腰掛け面(6)に便器Tの便座部の直上位置に対応させて開口形成した用便開口9を開閉させる左右に開閉自在にした開閉座蓋10とを備えたものである。
台車本体2は、便器Tの底部にその前方から嵌め合わせるように平面から見て背面側で開放されたほぼ溝形状の刳り貫き部3Aを形成した底板3と、この底板3の左右両側で相対峙して立設した左右側板4と、底板3の前側で立設した前側板5と、便器Tの便座部上方に位置するよう左右側板4間に架装した腰掛け面となる上板6とによって背面開放構造に形成することができ、またこの台車本体2の底部に移動車輪7を付設して構成することができる。
開閉座蓋10は、用便開口9を覆うに足りる大きさで形成され、揺動あるいはスライド式に左右に分離分割されることで用便開口9を開閉させる2分割構成になっているものとできる。
具体的には、例えば台車本体2自体の上板6における前縁近傍位置で、分割された開閉座蓋10夫々の左右部分がその前縁位置によって左右方向に上板6上面に沿う水平面で揺動されるように支承されていると共に、揺動開閉側端部は、台車本体2の後背部側における用便開口9の外縁のほぼ中央位置で、開閉座蓋10自体の閉塞時の位置決め用に突起状に形成したストッパー12に当接するようにして構成することができる。
【0007】
以上のように構成された本発明に係る腰掛け式便器への座盤開閉式移動腰掛け装置において、用便台車1の台車本体2における上部である腰掛け面(6)は閉塞させてある開閉座蓋10上に用便・使用者を腰掛けさせ、底部の移動車輪7によって腰掛けた状態のままでトイレ内の便器Tまで移動させ、台車本体2が便器Tを覆うように嵌め合わせた位置決め移動後では使用者を腰掛けさせたままで便器T上に案内させる。
便器T位置に使用者を案内させた後、台車本体2の腰掛け面(6)に設けた開閉座蓋10の開閉は、使用者の臀部を用便開口9を経て便器Tの便座部に直接に載せるものとさせ、その状態で用便を済まさせ、終了後の臀部の持ち上げと共に開閉座蓋10を閉塞させることで再度開閉座蓋10上に腰掛けさせ、腰掛け状態のままでトイレ外に外出させ、腰掛けさせたままの移動車輪7による移動で所定位置に戻させる。
底板3、左右側板4、前側板5、上板6によって背面開放構造のボックス状に形成された台車本体2は、腰掛け面となる上板6の開閉座蓋10上に使用者を腰掛けさせたままで底板3底部に付設の移動車輪7によって移動自在にさせ、前向きに腰掛けている使用者が後ろ向きのままで用便台車1自体を移動させることで便器Tにそのまま跨がせた状態で覆うように位置決め装着させる。
左右に2分割で開閉される開閉座蓋10は、使用者の臀部の左右のいずれか一方ずつの順次の重心移動による持ち上げで他方を用便開口9を経て便器Tの便座部に直接に載せさせ、また逆の順序による持ち上げと共に分割された左右の開閉座蓋10の閉塞で臀部を開閉座蓋10上に載せさせ、再度の腰掛け移動を可能にさせる。
台車本体2の前部側の揺動支承で左右揺動開閉式とした開閉座蓋10は、後ろ向きに腰掛けている使用者の臀部の背面側で開閉することで便器Tの便座部に対する腰掛け、便座部からの持ち上げによる開閉座蓋10への再度の腰掛け位置決めを円滑にさせる。またストッパー12は後ろ向きの操作で開閉させる開閉座蓋10を閉塞するときに開閉座蓋10の分割された左右部分を合致させる中央位置で位置決め停止させ、開閉座蓋10によって用便開口9を確実に閉塞させると同時に、使用者の体重が負荷される開閉座蓋10を用便開口9周縁に位置決めさせてそれに耐えさせる。
【0008】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、図面を参照して本発明の実施の形態を説明するに、図に示される符号1は移動可能に構成されている用便台車であり、用便・使用者が腰掛けられ、またトイレ内に設置されている洋式便器いわゆる腰掛け式の便器Tの便座部を跨ぐ程度の高さを備えた空洞状に形成されている台車本体2の底部に移動車輪7を付設して成るものである。
【0009】
この用便台車1は、便器Tを跨ぐよう内部を空洞にすると共に便器Tに覆い被せるよう嵌め合わせて位置決め装着する位置決め開口を背側面に設けたほぼボックス状にすることで形成された台車本体2を備えて成り、台車本体2の内部は便器Tを僅かに凌ぐ程度の高さに設定され、便器Tの前方から嵌め合わせるようにすることで便器Tを覆うように跨いでセットされるものとなっている。すなわち図示にあっての台車本体2は、便器Tの底部にその前方から嵌め合わせるように平面から見て背面側で開放されたほぼ溝形状の刳り貫き部3Aを切欠状に形成した底板3と、この底板3の左右両側で相対峙して立設した左右側板4と、底板3の前側で立設した前側板5と、便器Tの便座部上方に位置するよう左右側板4間に架装した腰掛け面となる上板6とによって背面開放構造に形成されている。この台車本体2自体は使用者が移動のために腰掛けられるものとなっているために使用者の体重等を支持するに十分な強度を備えており、また汚損時でも簡単に拭き取り清掃できるように例えば強化合成樹脂材、木材等にて形成されている。
【0010】
なお底板3の刳り貫き部3Aは、平面から見て底板3の後縁側からのU字状、V字状、コ字状等に抉られるようにして切欠形成されており、この刳り貫き部3Aの底縁が便器Tの前側面に当接することで用便台車1自体の位置決めができるようにしてある。また前側板5は、図示にあっては例えば矩形状に開口されていて、台車本体2内部においての便器Tの突出した全部を回避できるように、更に便器Tに対する位置決めその他を直接に視て確認できるようにしておくとよいのである。
【0011】
台車本体2の底部には、例えば底部の四隅夫々に移動車輪7が付設されていて、使用者が上板6上に腰掛けたままで台車本体2自体の床面上の移動走行を行えるようにしてある。この移動車輪7は、図示のように底板3下面に固着された自在車構造のものとしてあり、底板3の外側縁から垂設したカバー8によって側方から覆われるようにしてある(図6参照)。
【0012】
もとよりこの台車本体2は、図示のように底板3、左右側板4、前側板5、上板6等によってボックス状に形成されている場合に限らず、図示を省略したが例えばほぼ直方体状の支柱・枠状となるようにパイプ材、棒材等による枠組状の構成となっていてもよく、また移動車輪7自体はこうしたパイプ材、棒材等の端部に付設されていてもよいのである。
【0013】
このように構成した台車本体2における上面例えばその上板6には、用便台車1自体を便器Tに位置決めセットしたとき、この上板6直下に位置する便器Tの便座部に対応する用便開口9が開口形成されており、この用便開口9は上板6上でほぼ水平面に沿って左右に開閉される左右で対となるように、分離分割式に形成した座盤となる開閉座蓋10によって覆われている。用便開口9自体は、図2に示すように使用者の臀部がすっぽりと落ち込み、便器Tの便座部上に直接に触れて腰掛けさせるに十分な大きさに開口されている。また開閉座蓋10自体はこれの周縁が用便開口9の周縁の外縁上に位置するものとなっていて、閉塞されている開閉座蓋10上に使用者が直接に腰掛けても、開閉座蓋10自体、この開閉座蓋10が当接される用便開口9の外周縁等が損壊されない強化されたものとして形成素材、形状その他が適宜に考慮されたものとしてある。
【0014】
図示のように開閉座蓋10自体は平面から見て用便開口9を覆うに足りる大きさ例えばほぼ円形状に形成されていて、左右に分離分割されることで左右部分夫々がほぼ半円形を呈する2分割構成にされている。そして台車本体2自体の上板6における前縁近傍位置で、分割された開閉座蓋10夫々の左右部分がその前縁位置によって左右方向に上板6上面に沿う水平面で揺動されるように例えば軸ピン材11で支承されていると共に、揺動開閉側端部は、台車本体2の後背部側における用便開口9の外縁のほぼ中央位置で突起状に形成したストッパー12に当接するようにして、開閉座蓋10を閉塞するときに位置決めされるようにしてある。
【0015】
すなわちこの開閉座蓋10自体は台車本体2における後背部側が揺動開閉されるよう分離される2分割構成のものとなっていて、使用者が開閉座蓋10上に腰掛けた状態で、使用者の臀部における左右のいずれか一方を臀部の他方を分割された開閉座蓋10のいずれか一方に載せて残したままで浮き上がらせるように身体の重心を移動することで、臀部を直接には載せていない開閉座蓋10の他方を外側に先ず開放し、浮き上がらせていた臀部の一方を用便開口9を経て便器Tの便座部上に直接に載せるのである。次いで、同様に便器Tの便座部上に載せた臀部の一方を残したままで臀部の他方を浮き上がらせ、開閉座蓋10の他方を外側に開放することで臀部の他方を便器Tの便座部上に用便開口9を経て直接に載せるのである。用便の終了後では、今度は逆に臀部の半分ずつを持ち上げ浮かせながら、また開閉座蓋10の左右夫々を閉塞しながら開閉座蓋10上に載せるようになっている。
【0016】
なお図中符号13は分割された左右の開閉座蓋10夫々に付設された開閉操作用のハンドルであり、図示例のように開閉座蓋10の縁部から外方に突出するようにしたグリップ構造のものとしてある。この開閉座蓋10自体は図示を省略したが、揺動式に開閉されるものとせずに左右側方にスライドするスライド開閉式のものとすることも可能である。
【0017】
また台車本体2の後背部には、上方に突出させることで配置構成した手押しハンドル20が付設されている。この手押しハンドル20は、図示にあるように左右側板4の後部から上方に突出させた左右のハンドルステー相互間にグリップを架装した正面から見てコ字状に形成されていて、介助者による用便台車1自体の移動のみならず、使用者自身が腰掛けた際の背もたれとしても使用できるように配慮されている。
【0018】
次に上述の実施の形態においての使用の一例を説明すると、例えば一般家庭における居間、寝室その他に置いておき、用便の必要が生じたときに使用・用便者が用便台車1の台車本体2における上板6の開閉座蓋10上に腰掛け、底部の移動車輪7の転動によって腰掛けたままでトイレまで移動、走行する。このとき用便台車1に腰掛けた状態の使用者自身で移動車輪7を転がしながら、また介助者によって手押しハンドル20によって押されながらもトイレまで移動するのであり、場合によっては壁を伝って移動する。トイレに移動後は、逆向きになり用便台車1の後背部側を便器Tに向けそのまま後退する方向に移動し(図1参照)、用便台車1によって便器Tを覆うようにして便器Tに嵌め合わせ装着セットする(図3参照)。
【0019】
次いで用便者は、開閉座蓋10の左右のいずれかに身体の重心を移動すなわち臀部の左右のいずれか一方を開閉座蓋10上に残したままで他方を浮き上がらせ、その浮き上がらせた側の開閉座蓋10の一方を外側に揺動開放する。開いた側の臀部の一方を用便開口9を経てそのまま便器Tの便座部に載せ、今度はその便座部に載せた側を残して臀部の逆の側を浮き上がらせ、開閉座蓋10の他方を外側に揺動開放する。そして臀部の残りの側を用便開口9を経て便器Tの便座部に載せるのである。このように臀部を用便開口9からすっぽりと落とすようにして直接に便器Tの便座部に載せた状態として用をたすのであり(図2参照)、その後、逆の動作で臀部の半分ずつを浮かしながら、また開閉座蓋10の左右を閉塞し、開閉座蓋10上に腰掛けた状態としてトイレから外部に出て、その腰掛けたままで所定場所まで戻るのである。
【0020】
もとより本発明に係る座盤開閉式移動腰掛け装置自体は、一般家庭のみならず、病院その他で使用することも可能であり、腰掛けて用をたす腰掛け式の便器Tであれば、またトイレ内に移動するのに段差その他の床面上の障害物が存しなければいずれでも利用できるのである。
【0021】
【発明の効果】
本発明は以上のように構成されているため、歩行が困難な身体不自由者、重病者等でも腰掛け式の洋式の便器Tに座ることができれば、用便台車1に腰掛けることで一人ででもトイレに行くことができ、しかも便器Tに跨るように位置決めセットすれば便器Tの直上位置にまで用便者を案内させることができ、臀部の左右を浮かせながら開閉座蓋10を開放させることで便器Tに直接に跨がせて用を済ますことができるのである。しかも用をたすには便器Tに直接に載って済ますから用便台車1自体を汚損する虞も少なく、清潔に使用できるのであり、清潔な状態で使用可能なことで使用者の日常活動の場所例えば居間、寝室等に置いておいても異臭その他が生じず、邪魔にならないものとして、場合によってはそのまま通常の腰掛けとしても使用できるのである。
【0022】
すなわちこれは本発明において、腰掛け式の便器Tの便座部を跨いで便器Tに嵌め合わせ装着可能にした台車本体2の上部に用便・使用者が腰掛け可能な腰掛け面(6)を設け、移動可能に形成した用便台車1と、この用便台車1の腰掛け面(6)に便器Tの便座部の直上位置に対応させて開口形成した用便開口9を左右に開閉自在にした開閉座蓋10とを備えたからであり、これによって、使用者が腰掛けたままでの便器Tへの移動往復、臀部の左右の一方ずつの持ち上げと開閉座蓋10の開閉操作との関連による便器Tの便座部と開閉座蓋10自体との容易な腰掛け・載せ替えを可能にし、身体不自由者等が一人でも簡単に便器Tで用便を済ませるようにできるのである。
【0023】
また台車本体2は、便器Tの底部前方から嵌め合わせるよう背面側で開放されたほぼ溝形状の刳り貫き部3Aを形成した底板3と、この底板3の左右両側で相対峙して立設した左右側板4と、底板3の前側で立設した前側板5と、便器Tの便座部上方に位置するよう左右側板4間に架装した腰掛け面となる上板6とによって背面開放構造のほぼボックス状に構成してあるから、使用者の体重その他を十分に支持できる耐荷重性を備えたものとできる。更に台車本体2の底部に付設した移動車輪7と相俟って所定場所からトイレまで使用者を腰掛けさせたままで自在に移動でき、しかも使用者を腰掛けさせたままの後ろ向きでの便器Tへの移動によって便器Tの便座部上に使用者を案内位置決めさせることができ、その位置での開閉座蓋10の開閉操作で使用者の臀部を便座部に直接に載せることができる。
【0024】
台車本体2の腰掛け面である上板6に設けた開閉座蓋10は、上板6に開口形成の用便開口9を覆うに足りる大きさで形成され、揺動あるいはスライド式に左右に分離分割されることで用便開口9を開閉させる2分割構成になっているから、使用者の臀部の左右のいずれか一方ずつの重心移動による順次の持ち上げと開閉座蓋10の左右部分の開閉操作とで、臀部の左右の他方を用便開口9を経て便器Tの便座部に直接に載せることができ、また逆の順序による臀部の左右の一方の持ち上げと共に分割された左右の開閉座蓋10の閉塞で臀部を開閉座蓋10上に載せることができ、再度、開閉座蓋10上に腰掛けさせてその移動を可能にさせるのである。しかも重心移動で臀部の左右を一方ずつで持ち上げさせるから、身体の不自由な、また重病者であっても面倒がなく、更には介護者の介助を必要としても本人自身、介護者自身のいずれでも身体的な苦痛は少なく、無理なく簡単に行えるのである。
【0025】
更に開閉座蓋10は、台車本体2自体の上板6における前縁近傍位置で、分割された夫々の左右部分がその前縁位置で左右方向に揺動支承されていると共に、揺動開閉側端部は、台車本体2の後背部側における用便開口9の外縁のほぼ中央位置でストッパー12に当接するようにしてあるから、後ろ向きに腰掛けている使用者の臀部の背面側で開閉することで便器Tの便座部に対する腰掛け、便座部からの持ち上げによる開閉座蓋10への再度の腰掛け位置決めを円滑にさせることができる。そればかりでなくストッパー12は後ろ向きの操作で開閉させる開閉座蓋10を閉塞するときに開閉座蓋10の分割された左右部分を合致させる中央位置で開閉座蓋10の左右部分夫々を位置決め停止させるから、開閉座蓋10によって用便開口9を確実に位置決め閉塞できる。しかも開閉座蓋10の側周縁は用便開口9周縁に位置決めされて支持されるものとなるから、使用者の体重が負荷される開閉座蓋10は、それに耐えて使用者をしっかりと支持することができ、腰掛け移動中その他でも損壊される虞がないのである。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention mainly relates to the movement of a toilet into which a toilet is located when a person with physical disabilities, such as a physically handicapped person or an elderly person, who is not physically active sits on a stool in the toilet and uses the toilet. The present invention relates to a stool-opening / closing type movable stool for a stool that allows a user to easily and easily perform an operation such as stool for himself.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in general households, people who have physical disabilities such as the physically handicapped, the elderly, etc., especially those who have difficulty walking, are very painful to return to the toilet where the toilet is installed. For this reason, it is often the case that a urinal or the like is placed close to it, and that it can be done there. However, since the use of urinals is cumbersome and often pollutes the surroundings, in order to eliminate such problems, for example, furniture such as plastic or wood that is placed in a bedroom, living room, etc. so that it can always be used Toilets and the like have been proposed. However, even if you use these toilet bowls and use them when no one is looking at them, you still need help from others to clean up, and you may feel pain in using them due to concern for the surroundings and withdrawal. Often, he has to hesitate.
[0003]
In recent years, a stool-type toilet, which does not require a physical burden on the user, has been widely used, and is commonly installed in toilets of general houses. However, in this stool-type toilet, various rising assisting devices are provided in connection with the toilet because the physical burden is increased slightly when the user stands up after using the toilet.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, as described above, the use of the urinal itself tends to be less preferred by the user himself, and if he can walk, he has a strong desire to go to the toilet and finish the use there. In addition, the above-mentioned rising aid itself is useful for persons who can walk to the toilet, but is not directly useful for persons with physical disabilities who have difficulty walking.
[0005]
Therefore, the present invention has been created in view of the above-mentioned existing circumstances, and if a person with a physical disability or a seriously ill person who has difficulty walking can sit on a stool toilet, It is possible to go to the toilet alone while sitting on the floor, and also to guide the user to the position directly above the toilet so that the user can use it by directly straddling the toilet, and furthermore, there is a risk of contamination etc. It is an object of the present invention to provide a movable stool that can be used cleanly and that can be opened and closed on a stool-type toilet so as not to be disturbed even when it is placed in a place of a user's daily activities such as a living room or a bedroom. And
[0006]

Although the opening / closing lid 10 itself is not shown, it may be a sliding opening / closing type that slides right and left without opening and closing in an oscillating manner.
[0017]
A push handle 20 arranged and configured to protrude upward is attached to a rear portion of the bogie main body 2. The push handle 20 is formed in a U-shape as viewed from the front where a grip is mounted between left and right handle stays protruding upward from the rear portions of the left and right side plates 4 as shown in the figure. Consideration is given not only to the movement of the toilet cart 1 itself, but also to the use as a backrest when the user himself sits down.
[0018]
Next, an example of the use in the above-described embodiment will be described. For example, when the user needs to use the stool, the stool is placed in the living room, bedroom, or the like of an ordinary household, and the stool of the stool 1 is used. The user sits on the opening / closing lid 10 of the upper plate 6 of the main body 2 and moves and runs to the toilet while sitting on the floor by the rolling of the moving wheels 7 at the bottom. At this time, the user moves to the toilet while rolling the moving wheel 7 by himself while sitting on the toilet trolley 1 and while being pushed by the hand pushing handle 20 by the assistant, and in some cases, moving along the wall. . After moving to the toilet, the toilet T is turned in the opposite direction and moves in a direction of retreating with the rear side of the toilet truck 1 facing the toilet T (see FIG. 1). (See FIG. 3).
[0019]
Next, the user moves the center of gravity of the body to one of the left and right sides of the opening and closing lid 10, that is, lifts the other while leaving one of the right and left sides of the buttocks on the opening and closing lid 10, and lifts the other side. One side of the opening / closing lid 10 is pivotally opened outward. One of the open buttocks is placed on the toilet seat of the toilet T via the toilet opening 9 as it is, and then the other side of the buttocks is raised, leaving the side placed on the toilet seat, and the other side of the opening and closing lid 10 is opened. Swing outward. Then, the remaining side of the buttocks is placed on the toilet seat of the toilet T via the toilet opening 9. In this manner, the buttock is directly put on the toilet seat of the toilet T by dropping the buttock completely from the toilet opening 9 (see FIG. 2). While the left and right sides of the opening / closing lid 10 are closed, the user sits on the opening / closing lid 10 and goes out of the toilet, and returns to a predetermined place while sitting on the lid.
[0020]
Of course, the seat-pan openable / movable stool itself according to the present invention can be used not only in ordinary households but also in hospitals and the like. Anything can be used as long as there are no steps or other obstacles on the floor to move to.
[0021]
【The invention's effect】
Since the present invention is configured as described above, even a physically handicapped person who has difficulty walking, a seriously ill person, etc. can sit on the toilet trolley 1 alone if he / she can sit on the stool-type Western toilet T. If you can go to the toilet and position it so as to straddle the toilet T, you can guide the user to the position directly above the toilet T, and open the opening and closing lid 10 while lifting the buttocks left and right. It can be used by directly straddling the toilet T. In addition, since the toilet cart 1 can be placed directly on the toilet T for use, the toilet truck 1 itself is less likely to be soiled, and can be used in a clean state. Even if it is placed in a place such as a living room, a bedroom or the like, it does not generate an unpleasant smell or the like, so that it can be used as a normal stool as it is in some cases.
[0022]
That is, in the present invention, a stool surface (6) on which the toilet / user can stool is provided on the upper part of the bogie main body 2 which can be fitted and mounted on the toilet T across the toilet seat portion of the stool type toilet T, Toilet truck 1 movably formed, and a stool opening 9 formed on the seating surface (6) of the trolley seat 1 corresponding to the position directly above the toilet seat of the toilet T so as to be openable and closable left and right. This is because the seat 10 is provided with the lid 10, whereby the user can move the toilet bowl T back and forth while sitting down, lift the buttocks on the left and right sides, and open and close the lid 10. It is possible to easily seat and replace the toilet seat and the opening / closing lid 10 itself, so that a person with a physical disability or the like can easily complete the toilet using the toilet T alone.
[0023]
The bogie main body 2 is provided with a bottom plate 3 having a substantially groove-shaped hollow portion 3A opened on the back side so as to be fitted from the front of the bottom of the toilet T, and stands on the left and right sides of the bottom plate 3 so as to face each other. The left-right plate 4, the front plate 5 erected on the front side of the bottom plate 3, and the upper plate 6 serving as a seating surface mounted between the left and right side plates 4 so as to be located above the toilet seat portion of the toilet T, have a substantially back-open structure. Since it is configured in a box shape, it can be provided with a load-bearing capacity capable of sufficiently supporting the weight and the like of the user. Further, in cooperation with the moving wheels 7 attached to the bottom of the bogie main body 2, the user can move freely from a predetermined place to the toilet while sitting on the toilet, and furthermore, the user can move the toilet T in a backward direction while sitting on the user. The user can be guided and positioned on the toilet seat portion of the toilet T by the movement, and the user's buttocks can be placed directly on the toilet seat portion by opening and closing the opening and closing lid 10 at that position.
[0024]
The opening / closing seat cover 10 provided on the upper plate 6 which is the seating surface of the bogie body 2 is formed in a size large enough to cover the toilet opening 9 formed in the upper plate 6, and is separated right and left in a swinging or sliding manner. Since it is divided into two to open and close the toilet opening 9, it is sequentially lifted by moving the center of gravity of one of the right and left sides of the buttocks of the user, and the opening and closing operation of the left and right portions of the opening and closing seat cover 10. The right and left other sides of the buttocks can be placed directly on the toilet seat of the toilet T via the toilet opening 9, and the left and right opening and closing lids 10 which are divided with the lifting of one of the right and left buttocks in the reverse order. With the obstruction, the buttocks can be placed on the opening / closing lid 10, and the user can be seated on the opening / closing lid 10 again to enable the movement. In addition, since the center of gravity moves the buttocks right and left one at a time, it is not troublesome for a physically handicapped person, even a seriously ill person. But there is little physical pain and it can be done easily without difficulty.
[0025]
Further, at the position near the front edge of the upper plate 6 of the bogie main body 2, the open / close seat 10 is pivotally supported at the front edge position in the left and right directions at the front edge position. Since the end portion comes into contact with the stopper 12 at a position substantially at the center of the outer edge of the toilet opening 9 on the rear side of the bogie main body 2, it can be opened and closed on the rear side of the buttocks of the user sitting backward. Thus, the seating of the toilet T on the toilet seat portion and the positioning of the seat on the opening / closing lid 10 again by lifting from the toilet seat portion can be smoothly performed. In addition, the stopper 12 stops the positioning of each of the left and right portions of the opening and closing seat 10 at the center position where the divided left and right portions of the opening and closing seat 10 coincide with each other when closing the opening and closing seat 10 to be opened and closed by the backward operation. Therefore, the toilet opening 9 can be reliably positioned and closed by the opening / closing lid 10. In addition, since the side edge of the opening / closing lid 10 is positioned and supported by the periphery of the toilet opening 9, the opening / closing lid 10 loaded with the weight of the user can withstand it and firmly support the user. Therefore, there is no danger of being damaged during the stool movement and the like.
