ABSTRACT:
A bathing aid includes a basic frame to be inserted into a bathtub. The basic frame has a U-shaped bottom frame with legs and a rear crossbar between the legs. Two outer hydraulic cylinders protrude obliquely upward from the rear cross-bar and have upper ends. Inner hydraulic cylinders telescopically run into the outer hydraulic cylinders and have upper ends. A seat frame has a backrest with an upper edge being pivotably connected to the upper ends of the inner hydraulic cylinders. A reversible multi-position valve connects the hydraulic cylinders to a cold-water faucet of the bathtub for hydraulically raising and lowering the seat frame in the bathtub. Two cylindrical rings encompass the upper ends of the outer hydraulic cylinders with play. A hoop joins the cylindrical rings to one another. A centrally mounted, rearwardly projecting strut and a suction cup lock the cylindrical rings to an end wall of the bathtub.
