Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a car for transporting a cared person such as a physically handicapped person or a sick person.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a person requiring care such as a physically handicapped person or a sick person (cared person) is moved from a bed or the like to another place, he or she puts the cared person on the wheelchair from the bed. It is necessary to move the wheelchair to the destination (for example, another bed, bather, toilet, seat of a car, etc.) and take the cared person from the wheelchair to this location. In this case, it is difficult to move from the bed to the wheelchair or from the wheelchair to the bed or the bather because the height difference between the bed and the wheelchair is relatively large and the wheelchair and the bed are not continuous. There was a heavy burden on the caregiver.

Therefore, by providing a lifter device on the wheelchair, the height of the table on which a person is placed can be adjusted,
The wheelchair is provided with a peripheral wall on the peripheral end side of the table as an enclosure that can be opened / closed outside, and a slidable mounting plate is provided on the upper surface of the peripheral wall that is laid down in an open state so that the mounting plate can slide easily. A nursing car with a sliding member on the upper surface of the peripheral wall has been developed.

However, in the conventional wheelchair, it is not easy to transfer from the bed to the bed or vice versa, so it takes time even if two caregivers go there. There was a problem.

Also, conventional portable toilets are placed beside a patient's bed for relatively seriously injured patients, for example, in a hospital room. Although it is in the hospital room, the nurse needs to move from the bed and sit on the toilet in order to use it, so the nurse moves with the assistance of the patient. However, since the human body is heavy, there is a problem that a nurse is likely to hurt his back. In addition, after defecation, it is necessary to take out the toilet bowl from the portable toilet and discard the waste every time.

Further, when the destination is a toilet, there is a problem that it is difficult to transfer the care receiver to the toilet because the toilet is small.

In addition, when the cared person is placed on the board and then the board is moved on the upper surface of the peripheral wall through the sliding member, the caregiver's weight and inclination of the peripheral wall make the carer think. Since it is difficult to move in any direction, there is a problem in that an extra burden is required to control the moving direction.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object thereof is to enable even a single caregiver to easily transfer a cared person between a bed and a car, and to Even in such a narrow place, you can move the cared person to the toilet bowl without having to transfer it to the toilet bowl and defecate as it is, and stabilize the board between the table and each wall. The purpose is to provide a nursing car that can move in one direction.
