AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

This grab bar is aesthetically appealing but has limited practical use, especially in care facilities where many users suffer from arthritis or other mobility limitations
This is primarily due to the limited length of the rod's optimal grip area, as the rod bends from the center towards the substrate surface or wall to which it will be attached, limiting the rear clearance behind the rod towards each end

Abstract

A grab rail (10) comprises an elongated central gripping region (12) extending in a linear direction and two ends (14). Each end includes an elbow structure (18) extending from and adjoining the gripping region, through a direction generally transverse to the gripping region and terminating in a surface engaging structure (20). The central gripping region (12) comprises a photoluminescent material that accumulates energy under normal or daylight conditions and automatically emits light under dim light conditions to emit light in darkness. The grab rail does not require a power supply, provides enhanced visibility under dim or dark light conditions, and is particularly useful in nursing facilities and places where people are inconvenient to move.
