Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To mount a grip bar into a desired position without projecting much to the indoor side even at a part with no handrail mounting column or stud in a wall in a view of a structural problem that a handrail attached to aid the life of an old person or a person with a trouble in the leg in the barrier-free and reforming construction of a conventional wooden house cannot be embedded in the wall because the wall of the wooden house contains structural members such as columns, studs and braces closely and furthermore, handrail fittings are allowed to be mounted only to a place with backing for mounting the columns and studs in the wall to obtain strength. <P>SOLUTION: A metal box of an embedded part is fixed beforehand to the box mounting backing mounted to the columns and studs in the wall, and a grip bar and grip bar fixing metal fittings are connected to each other and fixed to the embedded metal box. The grip bar and grip bar fixing metal fittings can thereby be fitted freely in any direction to a cavity with no strength in the wall, and a bulge to the indoor side other than the grip bar can be restrained. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT

Description

  The present invention relates to a gripping bar unit having a function of being embedded in a wall in a house in order for an elderly person or a handicapped person to assist in daily life in the house.

  In order to attach handrails to walls to assist in activities such as walking, standing and sitting in renovation of wooden houses for the elderly and people with reduced mobility, barrier-free construction, pillars, studs, braces on the wall structure Since there is a problem that the inside of the wall has soft insulation or is hollow and the wall material is also plasterboard or plywood, and the strength to support the weight cannot be obtained, the handrail mounting bracket has strength in the wall to obtain strength It can only be installed at a position where there are pillars and studs, and there are cases where the handrail becomes long or cannot be installed where it is most needed.

  In addition, it was common to mount the unit so that it protrudes about 7 cm from the wall surface into the room so that it can be grasped by hand.

  Attaching handrails from the surface of the wall, even for the purpose of assisting daily life, in a narrow place such as a toilet, washroom, dressing room, corridor, etc., can only be applied to one side of the wall, and the indoor space is compressed, impeding the function of the room. Depending on the height and body shape of the person who does not need the handrail of the housemate, it might be an obstacle. On the other hand, in most cases of wooden houses, structural materials such as pillars, studs, braces, etc., are placed in the walls at regular intervals, so there is no suitable method for embedding handrails with these structural materials intact. Therefore, it is more than necessary to jump out of the wall by integrating a holding bar that supports the body like a handrail with a compact and strong metal box that can be embedded in the space between the structural members in the wall. Without

It is intended to solve the problem that it can be mounted vertically and horizontally even if there are no columns or studs at the required positions.

  In the present invention, the metal box in the embedded portion is fixed to a box mounting base that is previously attached to a pillar or a stud in the wall, and the holding bar and the holding bar fixing bracket are fixed with a dedicated screw, and then attached to the first. Attached with screws to the embedded box. As a result, it was possible to embed a hollow portion with no strength in the wall in any vertical and horizontal positions, and to solve the problem by making it a clog stick sticking out to the indoor side.

  The wall-embedded grab bar unit of the present invention has been supported only by handrails that protrude from the wall surface in the house to support the body for elderly people and people with reduced mobility until now. Whereas it was not possible to select, by making the holding bar and the embedding box into a unit, only the holding part was taken out from the wall to make it easier to hold, and the mounting part could be embedded in the wall. For example, in the case of a toilet, since the space was small, most people used a method of attaching a handrail to one side of the wall. However, it was impossible to support the body alone with a handrail on only one side. This unit has a dimension of 3cm or less that protrudes from the wall, so that it can be used more easily without squeezing a narrow space even if it is attached to both sides of the wall.

  In addition, because the conventional handrails were mounted on a strong base such as pillars and studs, it was not possible to install the pillars, studs or special grounds in the wall. By installing the base wood, the height and life of the person who used to stand up in a tatami room, such as sitting on a bed, sitting on a dining chair, etc. The pin can be placed freely in the vertical and horizontal directions at the pinpoint position that matches the position. The combination of this kind of detailed response and conventional handrails will create an environment where the user can live alone in the house as much as possible, which will have a positive impact on the relationship with the family and the rehabilitation of the person.

  The place where you want to attach the embedded type holding bar unit in the wooden house wall Figure 10 is attached to the base wood (11) for mounting the embedded box using the structural material column (8) and the space column (9). Cut out plaster board (12) and place it on the wall so that it can be embedded, and then insert the metal box for embedding (1) in FIG. 2 into the length of 6 screw holes (6) in FIG. Attach to the base wood {11} that was previously attached. Next, as shown in Fig. 3, both ends of the gripping bar ▲ 3 ▼ are inserted into the holding rod fixing bracket ▲ 2 ▼ and screwed into the overlapping screw hole ▲ 4 ▼ from both ends. The box (1) is clamped in four screw holes (7) in the short side direction (7) and is fixed to the base wood with a wooden screw from above the fixing bracket integrated with the rod.
