[002] There are currently several models of conventional cane holders on the market, generally made of materials such as plastic, metal or wood, which have a number of limitations that make their use less practical and attractive to users, as they are rigid and inflexible, since the rigid materials make these models less adaptable or comfortable in different contexts of use, such as transport, storage or restricted environments.

[003] They have a high weight, as conventional materials often result in a bulky and heavy product, making transportation difficult.

[004] It has storage difficulties, as traditional models are not easily foldable or compactable, taking up a lot of space when not in use.

[005] Cane holders made of rigid materials often have a cold and unattractive design, and are more focused on pure functionality than aesthetics.

[006] Rigid materials increase production costs, especially when Petition 870250107477, dated 11 / 24 / 2025, page 5 / 20 2 / 7 require special finishes or customizations.

[007] In this sense, some inventors conceived the products that are the subject of the patent documents indicated below, but they did not pay attention to the details mentioned above. STATE OF THE ART

[008] US document USD787173 published on 05 / 23 / 2017 teaches a device for securing walking aid canes to a user. The device includes a base and at least one hook extending outward from a rear surface of the base and adapted to attach the device to a support. The device further includes a first gripping arm extending outward from a first side of the base and projecting forward from a front surface of the base and a second gripping arm extending outward from a second side of the base and projecting forward from the front surface of the base. The first and second gripping arms form a retention space between them for attaching an accessory, thus securing the accessory to the support. 14

[009] European patent document EP3223644 published on 04 / 10 / 2017 teaches a device configured for use as a cane holder, comprising two cooperating fastening elements, which are linearly displaceable relative to each other, and wherein one of the fastening elements is configured to be able to be fixed to a cane. Furthermore, polarizing means are provided, which are configured to exert a polarizing force on the fastening elements, dipping them towards each other. Wherein the polarizing means comprise a constant-force spring of coiled elastic tape material, the coiled portion of which is mounted on or against a first fastening element and the linearly extensible free outer end of the spring is Petition 870250107477, dated 11 / 24 / 2025, page 6 / 20 3 / 7 connected to the second fastening element.

[010] Japanese patent document JP2012050467 published on 03 / 15 / 2012 teaches a cane holder that has a simple and robust structure so that it can be fixed in various places, comprising a fastening element made of an elastic element, where a pair of projected elastic surfaces is formed on a front side and opposite elastic proximity faces for fixing a cane are formed between the projected elastic surfaces; a support body composed of a hard synthetic resin and which supports the cane fastening element on a rear side; and a fastening device attached to the support body to hold the support body horizontally, the fastening device includes a rotation support unit to support the support body to rotate the support body from a horizontal position to a vertical position relative to the fastening device and also includes a fastening unit for attaching to a fixed object.

[011] Analyzing the aforementioned and known state-of-the-art documents, as can be observed, none fully presents the constructive characteristics of the cane holder that is the subject of this patent.

[012] In view of this, over time studies have been carried out to eliminate all these problems and inconveniences and, as a result, this fabric cane holder was developed, combining innovative technology and practical functionality, meeting the mobility and comfort needs of a broad and diverse audience. Its lightness, portability, sustainability, and customization possibilities stand out as its main differentiators, solving problems of current models, thus enabling the design of a new device and obtaining a Petition 870250107477, dated 11 / 24 / 2025, page 7 / 20 4 / 7 integrated product with real possibilities for economical industrialization, minimizing costs, assembly time and labor expenses, in addition to a precise assembly effect, with better results and a high standard of safety.

[013] Therefore, this utility model patent aims to provide a proposed fabric cane holder that overcomes many of these limitations by presenting several competitive and functional advantages. The innovative features include lightness and portability, using fabric as the predominant element, making the cane holder much lighter than traditional models made of plastic, wood or metal.

[014] It can be easily carried, especially by elderly people, blind people and children, people with reduced mobility or who are already carrying other items, such as briefcases or bags, as it is also equipped with a cross-body strap, which makes it suitable for use by people of all sizes, from thin to obese, tall and short.

[015] Another objective of the present patent is flexibility and compact storage, as it is composed of a fabric structure that allows the cane holder to be foldable or rollable, occupying minimal space when not in use. This feature makes it ideal for carrying in bags or backpacks.

[016] Allows for practical storage in small spaces, such as drawers or pockets, a very important advantage in environments with space restrictions.

[017] Another advantage is due to aesthetics and customization, as the fabric offers possibilities for varied arrangements, such as a wide range of colors, finishes and custom prints, making the model visually more attractive.

[018] With a more welcoming and stylish look, the walking stick holder of Petition 870250107477, dated 11 / 24 / 2025, page 8 / 20 The 5 / 7 fabric that is the subject of this patent meets the preferences of both demanding users and contexts where the product's appearance is valued, such as social, medical, or commercial environments.

[019] Another objective achieved by the present patent is the incorporation of adjustments in the constructive arrangement, such as extra compartments (for keys, cell phones or other accessories), flexible internal rods to give structure to the fabric, or even intelligent features.

[020] The flexibility of the fabric allows the development of models that accommodate different types of canes and other similar objects, increasing the versatility of the product.

[021] Fabrics, compared to materials such as metal or rigid plastic, are more economical to produce and assemble, and require less complex manufacturing processes.

[022] With modern manufacturing technologies, such as industrial sewing, the unit cost and production time of the product can be considerably reduced.

[023] The fabric offers greater comfort to the touch, compared to hard materials, making it more pleasant for users to use, ensuring an ergonomic design that is simple to handle, even for people with motor limitations or sensitivity in their hands, or who are blind.

[024] The cane holder is intended to store, in a practical, safe and hygienic way, especially the cane of visually impaired or elderly people, in any environment, occasion or need, thus avoiding the discomfort of not having a place to store it, thus avoiding the risk of loss, forgetting or having to leave it on the floor or in any other inconvenient place.
