The device for putting on shoe covers with a coin box

The device for putting on shoe covers allows to solve several tasks - to keep cleanliness in an institution, to save patients with restrictions in movement from painful sensations and to prolong the period of using footwear.

Why do we need shoe covers

Bakhily is a very old invention, so as not to go back to ancient times, you can remember galoshes, which are a kind of reusable shoe covers. The original purpose of this wardrobe was to protect expensive shoes from spoiling, blotting, excessive contamination. Over the years, shoe covers have performed a slightly different function, they now contribute to maintaining cleanliness and sterility in medical institutions. For the preservation of shoes from pollution, they are used on construction sites, in active sports (for example, cycling), etc.

Modern shoe covers in most cases are disposable, their use is mandatory when visiting clinics, hospitals, medical care centers. Find shoe covers and use them now is not difficult. In the hall of any medical center, devices are installed, charged with a certain amount of disposable protective equipment for shoes. Their use reduces the number of necessary cleaning and additional disinfection, maintains the proper level of minimal sterility, reduces the number of infectious diseases brought in and protects the floor covering from damage.

Benefits

The easiest way to put on shoe covers is to do it yourself, the action is fairly simple, but it has consequences. After self-donning protection to dirty shoes, you need to wash your hands, which is not always possible. People with excellent health rarely go to medical institutions, most patients have poor health, and putting on shoe covers in such cases is very difficult. The way out of all difficult situations was the device for putting on shoe covers, even people with large restrictions on movement can use it.

The first mechanisms had a small number of functions - after fixing the receipt of payment, a pair of shoe covers fell into the receiver, further actions were performed independently. Subsequent modernization significantly reduced the size of the devices and gave them a multitude of functions, where human participation is limited only by payment, the device at the same time puts on and removes shoe covers from shoes automatically.

Types of devices

The cassette apparatus

Regardless of the type of device, their main purpose is to put shoes on shoes. Until recently, protection consisted of finished products made of chlorine polyethylene, polyethylene, as well as non-woven fabric. The first devices were refueled with cassettes with a capacity of 100-200 pieces, modernized models serve up to 500 people.
