Indications

(Source: Catalog and list of therapy aids of German health insurance companies)
Bathing supports are designed for the use in a bath tub. This bathing support can also be used in the shower if it fits.
The ROBBY is intended especially for children from two years of age who lack trunk control or who are inclined to
excessive muscular tension (for example, due to cerebral paresis).

ROBBY bathing and lying support

The Robby bathing support is a shower and bathing aid that allows you to make various adjustments to best fit the
needs of your child.
The Robby bathing support supports the child in both lying and sitting positions.
The hook and loop closure tensioning straps that support the upholstery can be tightened or loosened to better ac-
commodate children with muscular tension.
To keep soap from getting in the child's eyes during hair washing, the headrest can either be turned backwards or the
fabric upholstery can be removed from this section to allow for free motion of the head.
The ROBBY has been designed to grow with your child, and has telescoping frame tubes that can easily be modified
to change back length and seat depth.
The construction and functions of the Robby bathing support are explained in detail in the following section.

Construction and function of the basic version

The Robby bathing support consists of a lower leg section (1), seat (2), backrest (3) and headrest (4). (Fig. 1)
The frame is covered with two sections of upholstery that overlap each other in the pelvic area and which are con-
nected with hook and loop straps. To accommodate any growth the child may experience, the hook and loop straps
can be loosened to allow for greater or lesser upholstery depth.
The angle of the bathing support is set with ratchet-lock joints found on either side (Fig. 2). To unlock and set the
ratchet-lock joint, press the push-button (Fig. 3). After setting the position, release the push-button and lock the joint
by moving it to the nearest locking position.
