Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a medical walking aid device, in particular to a foldable wheelchair. Background Art

[0002] Walkers help users maintain balance and reduce the risk of falling by increasing the support area when walking. This is especially important for the elderly, disabled people, or people who have unstable walking due to illness; for people with insufficient or injured lower limbs, walkers can share part of the body weight, reduce the burden on the lower limbs, and make walking easier and less laborious; during the rehabilitation process, walkers are often used as a training tool to help patients gradually restore their walking ability; the use of walkers enables people with limited mobility to carry out daily life activities more independently, such as shopping, walking, doing housework, etc., thereby improving their quality of life and self-confidence; walkers are not only a physical aid, but also a psychological support, which reminds people that despite the challenges they face, they can still maintain independence and autonomy; in short, walkers play an important role in helping people with limited mobility maintain balance, reduce burdens, promote rehabilitation, and improve quality of life.

[0003] Wheelchairs are the key to restoring or maintaining mobility for people who have lost the ability to walk due to illness, disability or old age. They allow users to move to different places independently without the help of others to meet their daily life and social needs. The use of wheelchairs enables people with limited mobility to participate in social activities more widely and enjoy a more fulfilling and rich life. For people with insufficient or injured lower limbs, standing or walking for a long time may cause physical fatigue and discomfort. The use of wheelchairs can share part of the body weight, reduce the burden on the lower limbs, and make users more comfortable and relaxed during movement. Wheelchairs are not only a physical assistive tool, but also a psychological support. It represents a positive attitude towards life and hope for the future. By using wheelchairs, users can maintain contact and communication with the outside world and reduce the loneliness and helplessness caused by limited mobility. In summary, wheelchairs play an important role in providing mobility, enhancing independence, promoting rehabilitation, improving quality of life, reducing physical burden and providing psychological support. For people with limited mobility, wheelchairs are an indispensable and important partner in their lives.

[0004] The combination of a walker and a wheelchair is an innovative design concept that aims to meet the mobility needs of people with limited mobility in a variety of scenarios. This combined product usually combines the stability of a walker and the convenience of a wheelchair to provide users with more comprehensive and flexible auxiliary support. A walker wheelchair can be used as a walker to provide stable support and balance, and can also be used as a wheelchair to reduce the need to change equipment and facilitate long-distance movement or sitting down when resting. This versatility makes the product more adaptable to different scenarios and needs. Under existing technical conditions, the functions of walkers and wheelchairs are relatively simple, and there are very few products that can be organically combined. Therefore, the development of a wheelchair with a walking aid function, easy to use and quick to fold has significant social significance. Summary of the invention
