Aid for Pulling On and Off Compression Stockings

摘要

The invention refers to an aid for pulling on and/or off stockings comprising a stocking retainer. The stocking, in particular a compression stocking, is at least temporarily during the process of putting on or off the stocking at least partially stretched over the stocking retainer. The aid for pulling on and/or off stockings comprises a pivot-mounted clamping element rotatable about a rotational axis. The clamping element comprises a clamping region for fastening the stocking put over the stocking retainer in respect to a counter pressure region of the aid for pulling on and/or off stockings. The aid for pulling on and/or off stockings comprises longitudinal rods to which the stocking retainer is attached. The clamping element is rotatable in respect to the rotational axis. The radius between the rotational axis is greater than the distance between the rotational axis and the counter pressure region of the aid for pulling on and/or off stockings so that with the clamping region of the clamping element lying against the counter pressure region a part of the stocking located in between is clamped.
