Description

"CHAIRS / SEATS AND BATHROOMS FOR SEAT BATHROOM FOR THERAPEUTIC PURPOSES"

This descriptive report refers to an invention patent application for a chair / stool, in two versions, plus a toilet seat, whose unprecedented construction, especially by angling its upper seat edges that delimit a central water-receiving cavity. , liquid or adequate solution, form anatomical supports so that the user feels in total comfort and performs therapeutic or hygienic procedure in "seat bath" system, in the case towards the buttocks and genital region, below the navel.

TECHNICAL STATE

It is known in medical circles, the so-called "sitz bath", or so-called trunk and sitz baths, which are performed in a large bath or basin for therapeutic purposes or even parahygienization. Such baths produce beneficial reactions to the eimmunological nervous system, acting on blood circulation and metabolism, causing the thermal regulation of the user. The sitting bath acts on the eliminatory organs, activating the expulsion of harmful substances present in the organism, especially in the case of proposed treatment in the buttock and genital region. The proposed treatment can also be performed before or after surgery.

For this important therapeutic procedure, also called "water cure", a bath or basin should receive adequate volume of water, which may vary at various temperatures depending on the desired benefit or the cure therapy for a particular illness or discomfort.

Thus, sitz bath with water at a temperature between 13 and 24 ° C, for example, is beneficial against mild fevers, inflammation or congestion of abdominal and pelvic organs, hemorrhoids, intestinal gas, impotence, headache, heat stroke and congestion in the bronchi.

Sitz bath with water at a temperature of 33 to 38 ° C is beneficial for example against sensitive hemorrhoids, for muscle relaxation or for sedative effect on the nervous system.

When using hot water, between 38 and 45 ° C for the sitz bath, it may have benefits against cystitis and painful menstruation, insomnia. Sciatica can be cured by applying it in water, sea salt, as well as from vaginal discharge, water can receive various medicinal leaves, vinegar and other herbal elements. In such cases, mycospore may also be treated satisfactorily.

Some precautions should be taken in this type of treatment, such as the gradual adaptation of the user, especially in warmer waters, when treatment should be performed more quickly and avoided by people with compromised blood pressure, anemic people and other problems for which certain requirements are required. medical care. Water can be kept warm by gradually adding boiling water from a kettle for example or from the shower.

In the case of colder waters, the user should heat the rest of the body during bathing, ingest hot tea or milk, keep the feet under hot water or take other precautionary measures. In any case, the basin is not known to be ideal receptacle for this type of therapy despite being used normally. The use of the basin really can be extremely uncomfortable for certain types of people, who, moreover, are those who most need this type of therapy, ie elderly, obese or others who obviously have a health problem, for example in case of bone fractures. In the case of an obese person, for example, it becomes difficult for him to stoop down and comfortably accommodate himself in the basin set on the floor, and it is even more difficult, also excessive pelopo, at the time of getting up.

Situations where the person has a fractured limb, or cases of elderly, sick or even children, may cause difficulty for users to bend down and accommodate the necessary body parts in the pelvis, perform the bath, and then get up. Such steps may make the therapeutic procedure uncomfortable. This discomfort can generate impatience and, consequently, rush the user, disregarding the necessary effectiveness or, at the very least, discouraging the user to perform other sessions that may benefit their health.

PATENT OBJECTIVE

Thinking about these problems, mentioned above, to make it comfortable and encourage the practice of this therapy, which undoubtedly has benefits to human health, the inventor designed the chairs / stools and toilet base in question, reasons for this patent application, which As main features, they have a conformal upper edge that forms a slightly inclined seat, directed to a central receptacle, an appropriate volume receiver of water or water solution.

Such conformation, whether in chairs or on the toilet base, gives the user complete comfort to sit and accommodate the genital region, which remains perfectly immersed in the water placed in the receptacle, to practically and efficiently settle the sitz bath .

To this end, the chairs / stools have support legs for the seat plane, whose specially shaped edge surrounds the receptacle with water, said chairs having front recesses to support the thighs of the user, after sitting and seating. Chairs / stools have backrest for added comfort and may or may not have armrests.

In the case of the toilet base, in addition to the anatomical edge, it incorporates a contouring flap that allows its coupling to the front edge of the toilet on one side and the support on the upper wall of the toilet on the other side, locking so that it positions the receptacle internally and allows the user to sit down and use the toilet itself as a support for the seating bath.

In both cases, through chairs or the base, the pieces are specially designed to allow the user to feel and comfortably relax, regardless of their physical limitations, whether obese, elderly, sick, children and others, making them more effective. Therapeutic benefits provided by the "seat bath" in complete hygiene as they can be made of stainless steel, polypropylene, ABS or other suitable materials.

The chairs / stools have angled projecting legs, which are provided with recessed sections that form rails along their height, combined and half-rod profiles, allowing a perfect fit to each other, for stacking one piece over another. The base, by its own configuration already allows overlapping units for stacking, thus facilitating transport.

The base is made to an appropriate size to fit a standard or standard toilet, while chairs can be sized to suit the physical structure of patients, whether obese or not.

Superficially explained, the chairs / stools and base, in their positioning forms, are further detailed through the accompanying drawings. The figures below, related from 1 to 7, show the back and arm chair:

As illustrated in the accompanying figures, the "THERAPEUTIC SEATS CHAIRS / SEATS AND SEAT BASE", which is the subject of this application, is a chair (1) with version (1a). ), in addition to a base (2), being designed for the therapeutic practice of "settling bath".

The chairs / stools (1), (1a) and base (2) are formed from a seat plane (3) whose edge (4) is slightly tilted downwardly to delimit a central receptacle (5) with walls ( 6) also inclined, which are directed to the closed bottom (7), and both parts (1) and (1a) have recess pairs (8) at the front of their seat plans (3).

The chair / stool (1) has slightly arched legs (9) projecting from its arms (10) and which are provided with receding sections forming rails (11) along its height.

The chair / stool (la), in turn, has the front legs (12) perpendicular to the seat plane (3) with half-rod rear profile (13), while its rear legs (14) are angled backwards and have receding lateral sections also forming rails (15).

Both chairs / stools have backrests (16), as well as backrests (17), while chair (Ia) has backrests (16) only.

Already the base (2) has seat plane (3) with edge (4) equally inclined, converging to the walls (6) of the central receptacle (5), also provided with closing bottom (7), and its seat plane ( 3) however, surrounded by a contouring external flap (18). Such a flap (18) has slight outward inclination, being more pronounced in its channel-shaped front part (19), said flap (18) incorporating lateral handles (20) and, subsequently, being cut (21) for the formation of the part. bump-shaped rear stop (22).

Thus constituted, the chairs / stools (1) and (1a) and base (2) will be used to receive water at a suitable temperature in their receptacles (5) and to allow, by the edges (4) of their seating plans (3), that the user sits and anatomically accommodates the buttock, supporting the lower thighs at the front recesses (8) (in the case of the chairs). In this position, as shown in figure 6 in particular, the user will be sitting at a relaxation point offered by the edge (4) providing the opening of the genitalia, being able to rest or not against the backrest (16) or support the hands on the arms (10) of the chair / stool (1). In any case, the bottom remains with the buttocks and genital region immersed in the water or the water solution of the receptacle (5) to make the sitting bath accommodated in total comfort, offered by the conformation of the edges (4), as shown in Figure 7.

As illustrated in Figure 14, in the case of the base (2), the base channel (19) of its flap (18) can be coupled so as to hug the sanitary edge (V), whose rear upper wall receives the support of the debating rebound (22). Thus, the base (2) partially inserts its receptacle (5) containing water into the toilet, which is used as a support structure for the user to perform his seat bath.

By receding sections or rails (11) combined with the arching of the legs (9), the chair / stool (1) can be stacked with other units, as shown in Figure 15.

The same occurs, as seen in figure 15, in relation to the chair / stool (la), which, by its front legs (12) in profile of half cane (13), embraces the front leg of the subsequent chair, simultaneously to the coupling between rails. (15) of your hind legs (14) in inclination.

The base (2), by its own conformation, allows trouble-free stacking, also shown in figure 15.
