    [0004] OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
    [0005] The present invention relates to a safety bar for application in toilets so that a disabled person can be placed in a toilet by an assistant with the assurance that it can be kept safely to fall, avoiding having to be present , so that the disabled person can not fall or have stability problems while on the toilet. An additional advantage is that, while the disabled person makes his needs, the assistant can spend time doing other tasks.
    [0006]
    [0007] Find special application in the field of the accessories industry for sanitary appliances and toilets.
    [0008]
    [0009] TECHNICAL PROBLEM TO BE RESOLVED AND BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
    [0010] A variety of devices are known in the current state of the art in relation to the help needed by disabled people in the toilets, in particular in the access to the toilets.
    [0011]
    [0012] The development of this type of devices, is focused on the fact of disabled people who, although they can fend for themselves, need additional help.
    [0013]
    [0014] In this way, devices based on support bars located laterally to a toilet are in the state of the art so that a person in a wheelchair has the possibility to fend for himself when moving between the toilet and the wheelchair.
    [0015]
    [0016] One of these devices is described in document KR10-1198009 which describes a hinged bar for access of a person in a wheelchair so that it has a support for its stability while it is in the toilet.
    [0017]
    [0018] The document ES-1038309_U, like the previous one, focuses on a help device
    [0019]
    [0020]
    [0021] disabled people with faculties to fend for themselves, that is, with a limited degree of disability. The device can be raised and lowered to be used by the user, so that, if it is not necessary, it does not bother or suppose any inconvenience.
    [0022]
    [0023] However, the development of these systems is focused on self-help to people who can fend for themselves, so that it serves as support in the situations of use of the toilet. None of these devices is focused on the fact that it can help a person with a large disability, as described in the present invention, so that an assistant responsible for positioning it in the toilet does not have to be present in the toilet. Any time to hold the user or prevent him from falling. The incorporation of a system such as that of the invention represents a great advantage, especially in the residences of the elderly, where many accidents occur due to user falls in the toilets causing fractures that are very uncomfortable.
    [0024]
    [0025] DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
    [0026] In order to achieve the objectives and avoid the drawbacks mentioned above, the present invention discloses a safety bar for toilets intended to be fixed on a wall on which it has the ability to rotate to move from a folded position on the wall to a deployed position. surrounding a user sitting on a toilet. To do this, the position of the safety bar can be modified in height and the arms can be extended according to interest.
    [0027]
    [0028] In this way, the safety bar comprises a support bar that extends at the ends forming two arms to have a configuration in U. The arms have a hole in an area close to the free end. Furthermore, an extension bar with holes is housed inside each of the arms, so that the size of the arms can be varied.
    [0029]
    [0030] The fixation of the extension bars to the corresponding arms is carried out by means of pins that go through the hole of each arm to lodge in one of the holes of each extension bar, the size of the safety bar being defined.
    [0031]
    [0032] The free end of each of the extender bars is fixed, with the ability to rotate, to a
    [0033]
    [0034]
    [0035] fixed positioner, with the ability to slide, to a tube which, in turn, is solidly joined to a support bar that is fixed to a wall. The tubes incorporate slits along their length. In fact, the tube can be hollow or solid, being designed to locate the slits and that the positioner can slide along the.
    [0036]
    [0037] The positioner incorporates a pair of plates between which the free end of the extension bar is housed. One of the plates incorporates holes that define the folding positions, collected in the wall, and deployed, for use by a user, of the safety bar. The extension bar incorporates an additional element that includes a pin, formed by a handle that incorporates a spring and a projection, so that the spring, in a state of rest, causes the projection tend to be extended against the plate containing the holes and hosted in one of them. In this way, when rotating the extension bar, the pin rotates with it, sliding on the plate until, when encountering the corresponding hole, it lodges in it and fixes the position of the safety bar. To change it from one position to the other, you just have to pull the pin to overcome the force of the spring and extract the protrusion from the hole in which it lodges so that, sliding on the plate, go to find the other hole and leave the security bar in the new position.
    [0038]
    [0039] Each of the positioners is fixed to a tube, with the ability to slide along it. In addition, it incorporates a forced cradle to contact the tube by the action of a spring or two springs, preferably, so that the pressure is made uniformly and prevent the cradle from tilting. When moving the positioner through the tube, the cradle slides along the tube, also contacting the slits until it is left lodged in the slit of interest for height, leaving the positioner and, therefore, the safety bar, located. To fix the position in a stable manner and, consequently, the height of the safety bar, a cam is rotated, which fixes the cradle in the groove of the tube in which it is housed, stably. To re-move the safety bar in height and, therefore, the positioner, you just have to turn the cam, leaving no pressure on the cradle and allowing the mobility of the set up or down according to needs.
    [0040]
    [0041] The elements that allow carrying out the movement of the safety bar both in height and in rotation and extension have been described on one side of the safety bar, although preferably, for safety reasons, are incorporated in both sides of the safety bar, considering that, given the rigidity of the components,
    [0042]
    [0043]
    [0044] The location of the elements that carry out the assembly must be symmetrical.
    [0045]

    [0072] DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a safety bar (1) for toilets that allows an assistant of a person with a large disability to not need to be physically present while sitting on the toilet.
    [0073]
    [0074] As shown in Figure 1, the safety bar (1) comprises a support bar that curves at both ends to form two arms (2), so that the safety bar (1) is shaped U. The safety bar (1) incorporates extension bars (3) that can slide inside the two arms (2), so that allows the arms (2) have a greater or lesser length, according to the needs . The extension bars (3) incorporate a series of holes (4) located in alignment along their length. Additionally, the arm (2) incorporates a hole that remains in correspondence with any of the holes (4) of the extension bar (3) when sliding on the arm (2). To carry out the fixation, a pin (5) is used which passes through the bore of the arm (2) and the hole (4) of the extension bar (3) which is in correspondence. The pin (5) is formed by a handle and a projection with a spring that rests on the element in which it is located to force the projection to be continuously extended looking for contact with the extension bar to lodge in one of the holes.
    [0075]
    [0076] In addition, at each of the free ends of the arms (2) preferably a projection (11) with a hole is located in correspondence with the bore of the arm (2), so as to strengthen the union of the extension bar (3). ) to the arm (2). The pin (5) then passes through the projection (11), the arm (2) and is housed in a hole in the extension bar (3).
    [0077]
    [0078] Thus, the pin (5) is fixed to the projection (11) so that, when pulling it out of a hole (4) of the extension bar (3), it can be moved together with the arm (2) in the which is housed, supporting the end of the pin (5) in the extension bar (3) by the action of the spring and sliding through it until finding a hole (4) in which it is housed.
    [0079]
    [0080] The extension bar (3) also incorporates a slot (12) designed to receive a pin (16) located in the projection (11). This pin (16) can only move along the groove (12) so that it prevents the extension bar from leaving the arm (2) where it is housed.
    [0081]
    [0082]
    [0083] In order to achieve a certain arm extension (2), each of the extension bars (3) slides inside the corresponding arm (2), where the pins (5) are located until the pins (5) fit into the corresponding ones holes (4) of each of the corresponding extension bars (3), according to the desired measurement. In the same way, in order to choose again another extension or reduction of the arm (2), the pins (5) are removed from the holes (4) where they are housed so as to be able to slide the extension bars (3) again until the pins (5) locate new holes (4) where they are housed. It must be taken into account that, as it is a rigid safety bar (1), the extension of the arms (2) through the use of the pins (5), as described, must be done with the two arms (2) both. Although the use of a single pin (5) would provide sufficient rigidity to the safety bar (1), for security reasons it is preferable to use a pin (5) in each of the arms (2).
    [0084]
    [0085] The safety bar (1) can rotate to move from a resting position, collected against a wall, as shown in figure 2, to a use position, deployed, as shown in figure 3. For this, the Free ends of each of the extension bars (3) are connected to the corresponding positioning element (6) by means of an axis (13) that passes through holes located in parallel plates that incorporate the positioner (6) and in the extension rod (3), which is located between the plates. In this way, the extension bars (3) and, consequently, the safety bar (1), can rotate around this axis (13) to fold and remain in a position substantially parallel to the wall where it is fixed or deployed and remain in a position of use that is substantially perpendicular to the wall. The rotation movement of the safety bar (1) is immobilized at the beginning and at the end of its travel, being fixed in these positions. For this, the extension bar (3) solidly incorporates an element with a pin (5) and one of the parallel plates of each positioner (6) incorporates two holes (14), one that defines the resting position of the bar security (1) and another that defines the position of use. The pin (5) slides on the outside of the plate containing the holes (14) to stay, forced by the action of a spring, in the corresponding hole (14), being fixed the position of the safety bar (1) . By pulling the pin (5) and forcing the spring force, the pin is removed from the hole (14) in which it is housed to slide along the plate until it finds the other hole in which it will lodge.
    [0086]
    [0087]
    [0088] It can be seen that each extension bar (3) is joined to two pins (5) that, although they are equal, have differentiated functions. Thus, one of the pins (5) is solidly connected to the extension bar (3) to fix the position with respect to the positioner (6), by rotation, while the other pin (5) contacts the extension bar (3). ) to lodge in the holes (4) and carry out the extension of the arm (2).
    [0089]
    [0090] In turn, each of the positioners (6) is fixed, with ability to slide, on a tube (8) solidly fixed to a support bar (7) intended to be fixed to the wall where the toilet is located. To provide rigidity to the assembly, the support bars (7) are preferably joined by a joining plate (15) that gives dimensional stability to the assembly.
    [0091]
    [0092] For the fixation of the positioners (6) in the tubes (8), the tubes (8) have a series of slits (9) aligned and uniformly spaced along their length so that the positioners (6) can be anchored in them and its position in height is fixed. For this, the positioner (6) incorporates a cradle that acts by continuously pressing on the tube (8) by means of a spring or, preferably, by means of two springs, to prevent the cradle from tilting so that, when the cradle is found with a slit (9), it is housed therein and the positioner (6) is located with respect to the tube (8). Once the desired height of the safety bar (1) has been found, to fix the position of the positioner (6) in the tube (8), a cam (10) that causes pressure on the cradle and immobilizes it in the groove is rotated. (9) where he is. To change the height position of the safety bar (1), the cam (10) is rotated again, releasing the cradle and allowing the positioners (6) to slide again along the tube (8) until the cradle is fixed in another position. Like the protrusions of the pins (5), the cradles and the springs are not represented in the figures, although this does not represent any lack of clarity to understand their operation.
    [0093]
    [0094] In this way, with the safety bar (1) folded against the wall, an assistant can locate a user in a toilet, pull the pins (5) of the positioners (6) to remove them from the holes (14) to rotating the safety bar (1) until deploying it to the position of use surrounding the user and fitting the pins (5) in the corresponding holes (14), adjust the arms (2) of the safety bar (1) in depth by the extension bars (3), if necessary, place the arms of the person by
    [0095]
    [0096]
    [0097] on top of the support bar (1) and adjust the positioner cradles (6) in the grooves (9) by turning the cams (10) to fix the height of the support bar (1) at the height of the underarm of the person, who is located without possibility of falling for reasons beyond their control.
    [0098]
    [0099] The release of the security bar (1) of the user is carried out proceeding in reverse. In some cases it may be necessary to raise the safety bar (1) to heights above normal to proceed with the cleaning or maintenance of the safety bar (1). These cases do not present any difference as to how to proceed, being able to position the safety bar (1) in height before rotating it to surround the user or even before placing the user in the toilet.
    [0100]
    [0101] Finally, it should be borne in mind that the present invention should not be limited to the embodiment described herein. Other configurations may be made by those skilled in the art in view of the present description. Accordingly, the scope of the invention is defined by the following claims.
