A sock donning assist device that allows a caretaker to put a sock on a disabled person who can not put the sock on themselves. The sock donning assist device includes a hollow rigid substantially L-shaped frame. The hollow rigid substantially L-shaped frame consists of a plurality of different sized and shaped slender members. The plurality of different sized and shaped slender members form a substantially vertically-oriented portion for retaining a sock during donning wherein the sock has an upper portion and a lower portion, and a horizontally-oriented portion extending forwardly from the substantially vertically-oriented portion of the hollow rigid substantially L-shaped frame for gripping by a user during donning the sock. Prior to donning the sock the substantially vertically-oriented portion of the hollow rigid substantially L-shaped frame receives the lower portion of the sock and the substantially vertically-oriented portion of the hollow rigid substantially L-shaped frame is received by the upper portion of the sock. During donning the substantially vertically-oriented portion of the hollow rigid substantially L-shaped frame is progressively removed from the upper portion of the sock.
ppareil à enfiler des chaussettes, pour aider les fournisseurs de soins à enfiler des chaussettes sur les personnes handicapées qui ne peuvent le faire elles-mêmes. L'appareil comprend un cadre creux et rigide essentiellement en forme de L, composé de plusieurs pièces fines, de tailles et de formes différentes, agencées de manière à former une partie essentiellement verticale servant à retenir une chaussette pendant qu'on l'enfile, la chaussette comportant une partie supérieure et une partie inférieure, et pourvu d'une partie horizontale, qui, partant de la partie verticale de l'appareil, se prolonge le long du cadre creux de manière à servir de prise pour l'utilisateur. Avant d'enfiler une chaussette, il faut que la partie verticale du cadre creux reçoive la partie inférieure de la chaussette, tandis que la partie supérieure de la chaussette repose sur la partie verticale du cadre creux. Pendant qu'on enfile la chaussette, la partie verticale du cadre creux se retire progressivement de la partie supérieure de la chaussette.
