Abstract

The seat for physically handicapped people has a frame (10), on which a seat cushion (12) and a knee pad (14) are mounted. Theses are attached to cross-bars (22, 24) so that a space (26) is left free on one side for the user to approach the seat.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Sitzvorrichtung insbesondere für physisch beeinträchtigte Personen.The invention relates to a seat device, in particular for physically impaired persons.

Als Kniehocker ausgebildete Sitzvorrichtungen mit einem Gestell, einem daran angebrachten Sitzelement und einem gegenüber dem Sitzelement schräg nach unten versetzten Stützelement ermöglichen über die Kniestütze eine zusätzliche Abstützung der sitzenden Person, so dass mit angewinkelten Knien eine stabile Sitzposition erreicht wird. Damit soll beispielsweise für Orchestermusiker ohne Beeinträchtigung durch eine Rückenlehne eine anatomisch günstige Haltung über längere Zeit einnehmbar sein. Das Sitz- und Stützelement sind üblicherweise durch eine mittige Tragkonstruktion gehalten, welche beim Hinsetzen und Aufstehen mit einem Bein überstiegen werden muss.Designed as a knee stool seating devices with a frame, an attached seat element and a relation to the seat element obliquely offset down support member allow about the knee brace additional support of the seated person, so that with knees bent a stable seating position is achieved. This should, for example, be acceptable for orchestra musicians without being affected by a backrest an anatomically favorable attitude for a long time. The seat and support elements are usually held by a central support structure, which must be exceeded when sitting down and getting up with one leg.

Ausgehend hiervon liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, die im Stand der Technik aufgetretenen Nachteile zu vermeiden und eine konstruktiv einfache, sichere und bequeme Kniesitzvorrichtung insbesondere auch für Benutzer mit beeinträchtigter Körperkontrolle zu schaffen.Based on this, the present invention seeks to avoid the disadvantages encountered in the prior art and to provide a structurally simple, safe and comfortable knee seat device especially for users with impaired body control.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird die im Patentanspruch 1 angegebene Merkmalskombination vorgeschlagen. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen.To solve this problem, the feature combination specified in claim 1 is proposed. Advantageous embodiments and modifications of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims.

Dementsprechend wird erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen, dass das Gestell ein bezüglich der sitzenden Person an einer Seite angeordnetes Seitenteil aufweist, und dass das Sitzelement und das Stützelement über Querausleger an dem Seitenteil gehalten sind, so dass der Zugangsbereich für die Person gegenüber dem Seitenteil, insbesondere auch der Zwischenbereich zwischen Sitz- und Stützelement bis zum Boden völlig frei von Gestellteilen bleibt. Durch die von oben gesehen U-förmige Anordnung kann die Sitzposition ohne Überwindung von Hindernissen eingenommen und verlassen werden. Dadurch wird eine bessere Ergonomie speziell auch für physisch behinderte Personen erreicht, die eine Benutzung weitgehend ohne fremde Hilfe erlaubt. In der Kniesitzposition ist die Person dann sicher abgestützt und ausbalanciert, so dass Verrichtungen wie beispielsweise Körperpflege an einem Waschbecken selbständig vorgenommen werden können.Accordingly, the invention proposes that the frame has a relative to the seated person on one side arranged side part, and that the seat member and the support member are held on crosspiece on the side part, so that the access area for the Person over the side part, in particular also the intermediate area between the seat and support element remains completely free of frame parts to the ground. By seen from above U-shaped arrangement, the sitting position can be taken and overcome without overcoming obstacles. As a result, a better ergonomics is achieved especially for physically disabled persons, which allows use largely without assistance. In the knee-sitting position, the person is then safely supported and balanced, so that activities such as personal hygiene can be carried out on a sink independently.

Eine baulich vorteilhafte Ausführung sieht vor, dass die Querausleger an einer gemeinsamen Verbindungsstrebe des Seitenteils angebracht sind.A structurally advantageous embodiment provides that the transverse arms are attached to a common connecting strut of the side part.

Um eine einfache Anpassung an lokale Aufstellgegebenheiten zu ermöglichen, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Querausleger wahlweise rechts oder links abstehend an dem Seitenteil fixierbar sind. Damit ist es möglich, unabhängig von der gewünschten Sitzrichtung das Seitenteil beispielsweise im Bereich einer Wand anzuordnen, um so den seitlichen Zugangsbereich frei zu halten.In order to enable a simple adaptation to local Aufstellgegebenheiten, it is advantageous if the transverse arm can be fixed either on the right or left projecting on the side part. This makes it possible, regardless of the desired seating direction to arrange the side part, for example in the region of a wall, so as to keep the lateral access area free.

Vorteilhafterweise sind das Sitzelement und/oder das Stützelement über Höhenverstellmittel an dem Gestell höhenverstellbar angeordnet. Dies lässt sich dadurch erreichen, dass das Sitzelement und/oder das Stützelement über nach oben abstehende Teleskoprohre an ihrem Querausleger abgestützt sind. Eine weitere ergonomische Anpassmöglichkeit ergibt sich dadurch, dass das Sitzelement und/oder das Stützelement um eine Horizontalachse verschwenkbar sind. Für eine noch vielseitigere Körperanpassung ist es günstig, wenn das Sitzelement und das Stützelement über Abstandsverstellmittel in ihrem gegenseitigen Abstand verstellbar sind. Eine vorteilhafte Ausführung sieht vor, dass die Abstandsverstellmittel Rast- oder Klemmorgane oder ein Lochraster zur lageveränderlichen Fixierung mindestens eines der Querausleger an dem Seitengestell umfassen. Um die Handhabung zu erleichtern, ist es von Vorteil, wenn das Sitzteil und/oder das Stützteil über Schnellspannmittel vorzugsweise werkzeuglos in einer gewünschten Lage festlegbar sind.Advantageously, the seat element and / or the support element via height adjustment means are arranged vertically adjustable on the frame. This can be achieved in that the seat element and / or the support element are supported on telescopic tubes projecting upwards on their cross arm. Another ergonomic adjustment possibility results from the fact that the seat element and / or the support element are pivotable about a horizontal axis. For an even more versatile body adaptation, it is favorable if the seat element and the support element are adjustable by distance adjustment means in their mutual distance. An advantageous embodiment provides that the distance adjusting means comprise latching or clamping members or a perforated grid for the positionally variable fixing of at least one of the transverse arms on the side frame. To facilitate handling, it is advantageous if the seat part and / or the support part over Quick clamping means preferably tool-free in a desired position can be fixed.

Weitere Verbesserungen lassen sich dadurch erreichen, dass das Sitzelement eine gegenüber einer Horizontalebene zu dem Stützelement hin schräg aufgestellte Sitzfläche und gegebenenfalls eine anatomisch geformte Sitzschale aufweist. Ebenso ist es anatomisch vorteilhaft, wenn das Stützteil eine gegen die vordere Schienbeinseite der Person anliegende, vorzugsweise mit zwei Kniemulden versehene Stützfläche aufweist.Further improvements can be achieved in that the seat element has a relation to a horizontal plane to the support member obliquely upright seat and possibly an anatomically shaped seat. Likewise, it is anatomically advantageous if the support member has a against the front tibia side of the person fitting, preferably provided with two knee recesses support surface.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung sieht vor, dass das Sitzelement und/oder das Stützelement durch zylindrische, insbesondere flach zylindrische Polster gebildet sind.A further advantageous embodiment provides that the seat element and / or the support element are formed by cylindrical, in particular flat cylindrical pads.

Eine stabile Mehrpunktlagerung kann dadurch erreicht werden, dass das Gestell über Fußstücke an dem Seitenteil und an den Querauslegern punktförmig am Boden abgestützt ist. Konstruktiv einfach ist es auch, wenn das Seitenteil über bodenseitige Fußstreben linienförmig am Boden abgestützt ist.A stable multi-point bearing can be achieved in that the frame is supported by means of foot pieces on the side part and on the cross arms punctiform on the ground. It is also structurally simple if the side part is supported linearly on the ground via bottom-side foot struts.

Vorteilhafterweise umfasst das Seitenteil einen in einer Vertikalebene sich erstreckenden Tragrahmen. Eine baulich einfache Variante sieht vor, dass das Seitenteil durch eine Z-förmige Strebenstruktur gebildet ist, wobei die Querausleger an der schräg stehenden Mittelstrebe angebracht sind.Advantageously, the side part comprises a support frame extending in a vertical plane. A structurally simple variant provides that the side part is formed by a Z-shaped strut structure, wherein the transverse arm are attached to the inclined center strut.

Um die Benutzung weiter zu erleichtern, ist es von Vorteil, wenn das Seitenteil einen sich über die Höhe des Sitzelements hinaus nach oben erhebenden Griffbügel für die Person aufweist.In order to facilitate the use further, it is advantageous if the side part has an over the height of the seat member also upwards lifting handle for the person.

Eine zusätzliche Sicherung in der Sitzhaltung ist dadurch erreichbar, dass an dem Seitengestell eine Bruststütze zur Brustabstützung der Person angeordnet ist.An additional safeguard in the sitting posture is achievable in that a breast support for breast support of the person is arranged on the side frame.

Um die Aufbewahrung und den Transport zu vereinfachen, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Querausleger oder Teile davon über Gelenke an das Seitenteil anklappbar sind.To simplify the storage and transport, it is advantageous if the transverse arm or parts thereof are hinged to the side part via joints.

Ein weiterer Erfindungsaspekt liegt in einer Sitzvorrichtung insbesondere für physisch beeinträchtigte Personen mit einem Sitzelement und einem gegenüber dem Sitzelement schräg nach unten versetzten Stützelement zur Abstützung der Person in einer knienden Sitzstellung, wobei das Sitzelement und das Stützelement (14) über Querausleger an einer Wandhalterung quer von der Wand abstehend gehalten sind, so dass der Zugangsbereich für die Person auch am Boden frei bleibt.Another aspect of the invention lies in a seat device in particular for physically impaired persons with a seat element and a relative to the seat element offset obliquely down support member for supporting the person in a kneeling sitting position, wherein the seat member and the support element (14) on transverse bracket to a wall bracket across from the wall are kept upright, so that the access area for the person remains free on the ground.

Besonders bevorzugt ist die Verwendung der erfindungsgemäßen Kniesitzvorrichtung im Bereich einer Waschgelegenheit, insbesondere eines Waschbeckens, um so einem Benutzer auch bei eingeschränkter Körperkontrolle eine weitgehend selbständige Körperpflege zu ermöglichen.Particularly preferred is the use of the knee seat device according to the invention in the area of a washing facility, in particular a wash basin, so as to allow a user a body care largely independent even with limited body control.

Die in Fig. 1 bis 3 dargestellte Sitzvorrichtung ermöglicht insbesondere körperbehinderten Personen die einfache Einnahme einer bequemen knienden Sitzstellung. Sie besteht im Wesentlichen aus einem Gestell 10, einem Sitzelement 12 zur Beckenabstützung und einem gegenüber dem Sitzelement schräg nach unten versetzten Stützelement 14 zur Knieabstützung des Benutzers.The seat device illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 3 allows, in particular, physically disabled persons to easily take a comfortable kneeling sitting position. It consists essentially of a frame 10, a seat member 12 for pelvic support and a relative to the seat member obliquely downwardly offset support member 14 for knee support of the user.

Das Gestell 10 weist ein bezüglich der sitzenden Person an einer Seite außerhalb des Sitzbereichs seitlich stehendes, im Wesentlichen in einer Vertikalebene sich erstreckendes Seitenteil 16 auf. Dieses ist durch einen bogenförmigen Rohrrahmen 18 gebildet, welcher eine Verbindungsstrebe 20 zwischen den Bogenschenkeln besitzt. Hieran sind das Sitz- und Stützelement 12, 14 über jeweils einen quer zu der Rahmen- bzw. Vertikalebene abstehenden Querausleger 22, 24 gehalten, so dass der Zugangs- und Zwischenbereich 26 zwischen Sitz- und Stützelement 12, 14 bis zum Boden frei von Gestellteilen bleibt Entsprechend den Enden des Rohrrahmens 18 sind auch die nach unten abgewinkelten Querausleger 22, 24 an ihren freien Enden über Fußstücke 28 punktförmig am Boden abgestützt.The frame 10 has a relative to the seated person on one side outside the seating area laterally standing, substantially in a vertical plane extending side part 16. This is formed by an arcuate tubular frame 18 which has a connecting strut 20 between the bow legs. Hereby, the seat and support element 12, 14 are held in each case via a transverse arm 22, 24 projecting transversely to the frame or vertical plane, so that the access and intermediate region 26 between seat and support element 12, 14 is free from frame parts to the bottom According to the ends of the tubular frame 18 and the downwardly angled cross arms 22, 24 are supported at their free ends via feet 28 punctiform on the ground.

Zur Höhenverstellung des Sitzelements 12 und Stützelements 14 ist ein an dem jeweiligen Querausleger 22, 24 nach oben abstehendes Teleskoprohr 30 vorgesehen, während eine Neigungsverstellung um eine Horizontalachse über Gelenke 32 ermöglicht wird. Die Fixierung erfolgt durch Schraubverbindungen 34 gegebenenfalls über werkzeuglos betätigbare Schnellspannmittel. Das Sitzelement 12 wird dabei so eingestellt, dass seine Sitzfläche 36 zu dem Stützelement 14 hin schräg angestellt ist. Das tiefer liegende. Stützelement 14 ist mit seiner Stützfläche 38 in Gegenrichtung zu der Sitzfläche 36 geneigt, so dass eine Abstützung in antero-posteriorer Richtung gegen den Schienbein- bzw. Kniebereich der sitzenden Person möglich ist.To adjust the height of the seat member 12 and support member 14 is provided on the respective transverse arm 22, 24 upwardly projecting telescopic tube 30, while a tilt adjustment is made possible by a horizontal axis via joints 32. The fixation is carried out by screw 34 optionally via tool-operated quick release means. The seat member 12 is adjusted so that its seat 36 to the support member 14 is made obliquely. The lower lying. Support member 14 is inclined with its support surface 38 in the opposite direction to the seat surface 36, so that a support in the antero-posterior direction against the tibial or knee region of the seated person is possible.

Die Querausleger 22, 24 sind über Schraubverbindungen lösbar an der Verbindungsstrebe 20 des Seitenteils 16 angebracht. Auf diese Weise ist es auch möglich, die Anbringung spiegelbildlich auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite des Seitenteils 16 vorzunehmen, so dass durch die Rechts- oder Linksmontage bezüglich der sitzenden Person eine Anpassung an räumliche Gegebenheiten des Aufstellortes leicht möglich ist.The transverse arms 22, 24 are releasably attached to the connecting strut 20 of the side part 16 via screw connections. In this way, it is also possible to make the attachment mirror image on the opposite side of the side part 16 so that an adaptation to spatial conditions of the installation site is easily possible by the right or left mounting with respect to the seated person.

Zur Abstandsverstellung zwischen Sitzelement 12 und Stützelement 14 ist an der Verbindungsstrebe 20 ein Lochraster 40 vorgesehen, welches aus im Abstand voneinander angeordneten Lochpaaren besteht, in denen der Querausleger 22 über jeweils einen Stabilisierungszapfen und einen Schraubzapfen lagesicher festlegbar ist.For adjusting the distance between the seat member 12 and the support member 14, a hole pattern 40 is provided on the connecting strut 20, which consists of spaced apart pairs of holes, in which the cross arm 22 is fixed in each case via a stabilizing pin and a threaded pin.

Um die Benutzung zu erleichtern, bildet der Rohrrahmen 18 in einem über der Höhe des Sitzelements 12 liegenden Bogenabschnitt einen Griffbügel 42, an dem sich der Benutzer beim Hinsetzen und Aufstehen festhalten bzw. hochziehen kann.In order to facilitate the use, the tubular frame 18 forms in a lying above the height of the seat member 12 arc section a handle bar 42, where the user can hold or pull up when sitting down and getting up.

Bei den in Fig. 4 bis 9 gezeigten Ausführungsbeispielen sind gleiche Teile mit gleichen Bezugszeichen wie bereits vorstehend beschrieben versehen.In the embodiments shown in Fig. 4 to 9 the same parts are provided with the same reference numerals as already described above.

Ein Unterschied der Ausführungsform nach Fig. 4 bis 6 besteht darin, dass das Seitenteil 16 des Gestells 10 hier durch eine Z-förmige Strebenstruktur 44 gebildet ist, an deren schräg stehender Mittelstrebe 46 die Querausleger 22, 24 über Klemmhülsen 48 lageverstellbar angebracht sind. Die obere Horizontalstrebe bildet dabei den Griffbügel 42, während die untere Horizontalstrebe 50 endseitig über parallel zu den Querauslegern abstehende Fußstreben 52 kippsicher am Boden abgestützt ist. Das Sitzelement 12 und das Stützelement 14 sind als flachzylindrische Polster 54 ausgestaltet, welche um ihre Zentralachse drehverstellbar sind.A difference of the embodiment of FIG. 4 to 6 is that the side part 16 of the frame 10 is formed here by a Z-shaped strut structure 44, at the inclined center strut 46, the transverse arm 22, 24 are mounted adjustable in position via clamping sleeves 48. The upper horizontal strut forms the handle bar 42, while the lower horizontal strut 50 end over about projecting parallel to the cross arms Fußstreben 52 is supported tilt-proof on the ground. The seat member 12 and the support member 14 are configured as a flat cylindrical pad 54, which are rotatably adjustable about its central axis.

Gegebenenfalls kann an dem Seitengesell auch noch eine nicht gezeigte Bruststütze zur zusätzlichen Brustabstützung der sitzenden Person angeordnet sein.Optionally, a non-illustrated breast support for additional breast support of the seated person can be arranged on the side seat.

Bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 7 ist das Gestell 10 ebenfalls als Fußgestell auf dem Boden abgestützt, wobei zusätzlich jeweils eine bügelförmige Stützkonstruktion 56, 58 an den Querauslegern 22, 24 vorgesehen ist. Die Stützbügel 56, 58 weisen ein Lochraster 60 zur Höhenverstellung des Sitz- und Stützelements über eine Steckverbindung 62 auf. Um ein Platz sparendes Zusammenklappen zu ermöglichen, sind an dem Gestell 10 drehbare Gelenkstücke 64 vorgesehen, so dass sich das Sitzelement 12 und das Stützelement 14 zusammen mit den Stützbügeln 56, 58 an das Seitenteil 16 heranschwenken lassen. Das Sitzelement 12 ist an seinem unteren Rand mit einer zentralen Aussparung 66 versehen, um so eine Intimwäsche für eine sitzende Person zu erleichtern.In the embodiment of FIG. 7, the frame 10 is also supported as a pedestal on the ground, in each case additionally a bow-shaped support structure 56, 58 is provided on the transverse arms 22, 24. The support bracket 56, 58 have a hole pattern 60 for height adjustment of the seat and support member via a plug connection 62. In order to enable a space-saving folding, rotatable joint pieces 64 are provided on the frame 10, so that the seat member 12 and the support member 14 can zoom together with the support brackets 56, 58 to the side part 16. The seat member 12 is provided at its lower edge with a central recess 66, so as to facilitate a personal hygiene for a seated person.

Die Ausführungsform nach Fig. 8 und 9 unterscheidet sich besonders dadurch, dass anstelle eines Fußgestells ein an einer Wand montierbares Wandgestell 10 bzw. eine Wandhalterung 110 vorgesehen ist, an welcher die Elemente 12, 14 an der Wand abstehend gehalten sind. Auf diese Weise wird der gesamte Fußraum bzw. Bodenbereich freigehalten, so dass auch die Bodenreinigung erleichtert wird. Das Seitenteil wird dabei durch eine Schiene 16 gebildet, die gegebenenfalls auch eine Abstandsverstellung der Querauslegen 22, 24 über zusätzliche Befestigungsstellen 68 erlaubt. Die Schiene 16 lässt sich mittels Schrauben 70 an einer Wand fixieren. Grundsätzlich ist es auch denkbar, auf eine Verbindungsschiene zu verzichten und die Halterung für Sitzelement 12 und das Stützelement 14 separat zu gestalten. In jedem Fall sollte auch damit eine ausbalancierte gekniete Sitzstellung unterstützt werden.The embodiment according to FIGS. 8 and 9 differs particularly in that, instead of a pedestal, a wall mountable wall frame 10 or a wall mount 110 is provided, on which the elements 12, 14 are held upstanding on the wall. In this way, the entire footwell or floor area is kept free, so that the floor cleaning is facilitated. The side part is formed by a rail 16, which optionally also allows a distance adjustment of Querauslegen 22, 24 via additional attachment points 68. The rail 16 can be fixed by means of screws 70 to a wall. In principle, it is also conceivable to dispense with a connecting rail and to make the holder for seat element 12 and the support element 14 separately. In In any case, this should also be supported a balanced kneeling sitting position.

Die beschriebenen Kniesitzvorrichtungen lassen sich besonders vorteilhaft im Bereich einer Waschgelegenheit aufstellen, um einer physisch behinderten Person die Körperwäsche weitgehend ohne fremde Hilfe zu ermöglichen. Dabei kann der Zugang in den Sitzbereich 26 von der dem Seitenteil 16 des Gestells 10 gegenüberliegenden Seite her zwischen die Querausleger 22, 24 hinein erfolgen, ohne dass Hindernisse überwunden werden müssten.The described knee-seat devices can be set up particularly advantageously in the area of a washing opportunity in order to enable body-washing for a physically handicapped person largely without outside help. In this case, the access in the seating area 26 from the side part 16 of the frame 10 opposite side between the cross arms 22, 24 done in, without obstacles would have to be overcome.
