An assistive apparatus with a backrest assembly is disclosed to solve one of the problems of conventional toilet seats in lacking proper back support for individuals. The assistive apparatus also helps to put individuals sitting further forward to help the individuals to use the toilet much more easily. The assistive apparatus provides an adjustable toilet backrest assembly for supporting a human back. The backrest assembly includes a backrest pad, a top support frame connected to the backrest pad, and a bottom support frame. The backrest pad is designed to relieve pressure on the back of a person. The back support portion comprises a backrest frame and a back pad attached on the backrest frame for supporting the human back. The backrest frame provides means for adjusting height of the back pad to accommodate different height of the human back. The angle adjustment portion connects to the back support portion with the toilet mounting portion and provides an angle adjustment means for different position of sitting on toilet.

An assistive apparatus with adjustable height is designed to be placed on or about a toilet such that when an individual uses the toilet the weight of the individual is transferred to the assistive apparatus and not directly on the toilet, avoiding distribution of heavy weight to the toilet itself. The invention also includes a powered lifting mechanism to aid the individual in utilizing a toilet. The powered lifting mechanism includes a pair of lift arm assemblies which are driven by a motor at both sides to raise and lower the assistive platform and be tilted between a first stationery position and a second tilted position, tilted at an angle (a) in a vertical Z direction from a horizontal plane. The front and back supporting legs are used to provide sturdy structural support for a person's weight whiling sitting on the assistive apparatus atop of a toilet.

An assistive apparatus with a buttock-spreading mechanism suitable for assisting a person in getting onto a toilet is disclosed. The person using the toilet together with the assistive apparatus is able to transfer the bodyweight of the person to be supported by the assistive apparatus, thereby avoiding the transfer or distribution of the person's heavy weight directly to the toilet itself. The buttock-spreading mechanism includes expandable leaflets disposed on a platform to comfortably accommodates the dimensions of the person's buttocks, and the leaflets of the buttock-spreading mechanism is designed to be movable (e.g., expanded or retracted) for spreading the buttocks of the person.

The apparatuses and methods of making and using the same are directed to bathing apparatus to support an object while bathing the object with a fluid. The bathing apparatus may comprise a support assembly constituting a support structure of the apparatus; a support surface to support the object, the support surface supported by the support portion; and a fluid catch disposed on at least three sides of the support surface, the fluid catch serving as a basin for the fluid in such manner to contain the fluid separate from the support surface.

Novel tools and techniques might provide for implementing seat lifting. In various embodiments, a seat lifter might include one or more first pistons, one or more second pistons, and a seat portion. The one or more first pistons, when actuated (e.g., in response to user input), might cause a rear portion of the seat portion to lift relative to a front portion of the seat portion, the rear portion of the seat portion being lifted by a first height above a seat to which the seat lifter is affixed. The one or more second pistons, when actuated, might cause the front portion of the seat portion to lift by a second height above the seat, the second height being less than the first height. In some instances, the first pistons and the second pistons might be actuated serially (in either order), or might be actuated concurrently.

The sanitary chair forms a seat that is a configured for use in a shower and with a commode. A patient sits on a horizontal surface formed by the sanitary chair. One dimension of the horizontal surface is adjustable. The sanitary chair comprises a plurality of legs, a base structure, a rail, a seat cushion, a folding cushion, and a back rest. The base structure forms the horizontal seating surface of the sanitary chair. The plurality of legs raise the base structure above the supporting surface. The seat cushion and the folding cushion forms the horizontal seating surface of the supporting chair. The back rest is a vertically oriented structure that supports the back of the patient. The rail, the seating cushion, the folding cushion, and the back rest are attached to the base structure.
