Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a bathtub used in a bathhouse.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As shown in FIG. 8, a conventional tub (1) is made of synthetic resin, and has a tub body (2) and a flange (3) formed on the outside of the upper edge of the tub body (2). Consists of.

[0003]

The bath tub (1) has a hand H on its edge as shown in the figure, but it is heavy when hot and cold water is inside, and it is difficult for a weak person to hold. become.

[0004]

The present invention SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION As means for solving the conventional problems described above, lift the bottom portion of the tub body (2) formed cues stepped portion (5),該手latching step portion ( Five)
Immediately above the bottom of the tub body (2) is recessed inward
A bathtub (1) provided with a hand-holding recess (4) is provided . Normally the flange (3) is provided on the edges outside on the該桶body (2).

[0005]

[Operation] The bath tub (1) is attached to the upper edge of the tub body (2) and the step (5)
Hold with hand H. When the hand-holding recess (4) is provided, the hand H is stably held by the hand-holding recess (4), and the step (5) makes it easy to grip the pail (1).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described with reference to one embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 6. A flange (3) having a U-shaped cross section is formed on the outer side of the upper edge of the tub body (2) of the tub (1). It is bent and formed,
Further, at a predetermined position, a hand holding recess (4) is formed which is recessed inward from the upper edge of the trough body (2) to the side surface.
Further, a cue step (5) is formed by lifting the bottom surface of the trough body (2) directly below the hand holding recess (4).

In the hand holding recess (4), the flange (3)
As shown in FIG. 2, a concave bent portion (3A) is formed on the outer side of the concave bent portion (3A), and a friction member (6) made of an elastomer is fitted on the outer side of the concave bent portion (3A). The friction member (6) is colored with a prominent color such as red or blue so that even a visually impaired person can easily recognize it. Further, on both sides of the hand holding recess (4), a wide portion (3B, 3B) is formed on the flange (3), and a plurality of slip stoppers are formed on the upper surface of the wide portion (3B, 3B). Protrusion
(7) is formed.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the bath tub (1) is gripped by the hand H in the hand holding recess (4) from the upper edge of the tub body (2) to the claw step (5). In this case, the hand H is stably held by the hand holding concave portion (4) and the handhold step portion
(5) makes it easier to apply the force when holding the tub (1) with the hand H. And the friction member (6) of the hand holding recess (4)
As a result, the feel of the hand is softened and the hand H does not slip even if the tub (1) is wet with hot water.
Further, when holding the tub (1) with the hand H, as shown in FIG. 5, a finger may be put on the back side of the concave bent portion (3A) of the flange (3) of the hand holding recess (4), and as shown in FIG. As shown, the side portion of the hand holding concave portion (4) may be grasped by the hand H. In this case, the hand H hits the non-slip protrusion (7) of the wide portion (3B) of the flange (3) to make it hard to slip. Further, the bath tub (1) may be held by both hands at both ends of the hand holding recess (4).

FIG. 7 shows another embodiment of the present invention.
In this embodiment, an outer peripheral edge portion (4A) is integrally formed on the outer side of the upper edge hand holding concave portion (4) of the tub (1), and is formed by the hand holding concave portion (4) and the outer peripheral edge portion (4A). A ring is formed, and the hand is held more stably in the ring. A friction member (6A) made of an elastomer is fitted inside the ring. The friction member (6A) is colored with a prominent color such as red or blue so that it can be easily recognized by a visually impaired person. A wide portion (3C) is formed inside the hand holding recess (4) of the flange (3), and a large number of anti-slip protrusions (8) are formed on the upper surface of the wide portion (3C).
Is formed so that the hand is not slippery when holding the tub (1) in the hand holding recess (4) by hand. Further, on the side opposite to the hand holding recess (4), the flange (3) has a wide portion.
(3D) is formed, and a plurality of anti-slip projections (9) are formed on the upper surface of the wide part (3D), and the flange (3)
Even if the hand is gripped at the wide part (3D), the hand is slippery.

[0010]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION Since the bathtub of the present invention is easily held by the stepped portion, it is easy for a weak person to hold and easy to use.
