PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve a conventional problem that, although a conventional chair is provided as a convenience thereof, a latter-stage elderly has a large physical and mental burden on a back due to an instable half-sitting posture during sitting-down or standing-up, and to provide a support function which can also serve as a general-purpose chair.SOLUTION: A chair 2 on a base 1 includes an upper and lower sliding handles 3, 4 on the back. The chair can be upwardly and downwardly moved along a sliding guide column 7 by an electric motor 5 having a control unit and a chain 6 and freely stop at a desired stop position between the chair and the general-purpose chair, thus allowing a safe and comfortable siting-down and standing-up. Further, the present invention provides a support function during sitting-down and standing-up.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2018,JPO&INPIT【課題】 後期高齢者にとって、座椅子は快適さで提供されているが、利用実態は着座と離座時には背面、中腰による不安定さが、肉体と精神面で多きな負担となっており、更に汎用椅子との供用を考慮した支援機能を開発した。【解決手段】基台1上の座椅子2には背面に上下部摺動把手3と4を備え、5の制御装置付きの電動機5とチエイン6で摺動ガイド柱7に沿って座椅子を上下動させ座椅子と汎用椅子間の任意の停止位置に自在に安全、快適に離着座が出来る。 更に、離着座時の支援機能を開発した。【選択図】図1
