[0033] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0034] Reference Figure 1-5 The utility model provides an embodiment: an adjustable walker, including two handles 1, a shell 4 and four support rods 14. A cross bar 3 is fixedly arranged in the front and middle of the two handles 1. The handles 1 are convenient for users to hold and control the walker. The shell 4 has the function of protecting the internal and facilitating the subsequent adjustment of the walker. The four support rods 14 can make the entire walker more stable. The cross bar 3 is convenient for transmitting force, so that the handle 1 can control the height of the walker. The two handles 1 and the two cross bars 3 are each provided with a second slot 20 Two No. 2 spring groups 19 are fixedly arranged on one side of the two No. 2 empty slots 20. The No. 2 empty slots 20 are convenient for the movement of the push block 17 and the button 2. The No. 2 spring group 19 is convenient for the push block 17 to be reset after moving. The other side of the two No. 2 spring groups 19 is fixed with a push block 17. One side of the two push blocks 17 is fixed with a button 2. The button 2 is fixedly connected to the push block 17 to facilitate the simultaneous movement of the button 2 and the push block 17. One side of the button 2 is inside the handle 1 to facilitate the user to control it conveniently and can be adjusted at any time.
[0035] There are No. 1 empty slots 15 on both sides of the shell 4 near the edges, and a No. 1 spring group 18 is fixedly arranged on one side of the two No. 1 empty slots 15. The push block 17 and the cross bar 3 can slide inside the No. 1 empty slots 15. The No. 1 spring group 18 is convenient for extension and retraction, and can be reset when no force is applied. Push plates 16 are fixedly arranged on the other sides of the two No. 1 spring groups 18. Vertical rods 6 are fixedly arranged on the edges of both sides of the lower side of the shell 4. The function of the push plates 16 is to make the extension and retraction force of the No. 1 spring group 18 more stable. The vertical rod 6 is convenient for supporting the entire upper shell 4. There are No. 3 empty slots 8 on both sides of the two vertical rods 6 near the middle, and a spring device 13 is fixedly arranged on one side of the two No. 3 empty slots 8. The No. 3 empty slots 8 are arranged to make the vertical rod 6 have extra space inside. The spring device 13 is also convenient for extension and retraction when force is applied. When the walker is in use, it can be extended and reset when no force is applied. The other sides of the two spring devices 13 are fixed with iron hooks 5. The function of the iron hooks 5 is to fix the entire upper shell 4 when not in use. The bottoms of the two vertical rods 6 are fixed with upper blocks 21. The bottoms of the two upper blocks 21 are hinged with lower blocks 22 through bolts and nuts. The two lower blocks 22 are internally clamped with fixed platforms 7. The upper block 21 is convenient for hinged connection with the lower block 22, and the hinge is for the convenience of folding and storing the entire walker. The bolts and nuts are used to fix the fixed platform 7 and the hinged part. A telescopic rod 9 is fixedly provided at the middle end of the bottom of the two fixed platforms 7. The telescopic rod 9 is convenient for moving the fixed platform 7 to the hinge when the walker is in use. The fixed platform 7 can be moved outside the hinge when not in use.
[0036] A placing basin 11 is fixedly provided at the upper end of the four support rods 14, and hook grooves 12 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the placing basin 11 away from the telescopic rod 9. The placing basin 11 can be used to carry some daily necessities when using the walker, which is more convenient. The hook groove 12 is convenient for the walker to be in a snap-connected setting with the iron hook 5 when it is folded.
[0037] The bottom ends of the four support rods 14 are fixed with universal wheels 10. The universal wheels 10 are convenient for enhancing the stability of the entire walker and also reducing the user's inability to move when he is powerless. The two corners of the upper front end of the placement basin 11 are fixed to the telescopic rod 9, which makes the placement basin 11 more stable and will not fall off. The two fixing platforms 7 are fixed by bolts and nuts, which makes the fixing platforms 7 more stable and enhances the stability of the entire walker. The two push blocks 17 are clamped with the shell 4 inside the No. 1 empty slot 15. The clamping setting is convenient for movement, and the clamping position can be adjusted according to needs, so that the push blocks 17 are always active inside the No. 2 empty slot 20. The two push blocks 17 slide inside the No. 2 empty slot 20, and the front ends of the two push blocks 17 and the cross bar 3 slide inside the No. 1 empty slot 15, so that the push blocks 17 and the cross bar 3 are always active inside the No. 1 empty slot 15.
[0038] Working principle: When this device is in use, since the button 2 and the push block 17 are fixedly arranged, and multiple No. 2 spring groups 19 are fixedly arranged between the push block 17 and the cross bar 3, pressing the button 2 can make the push block 17 approach the cross bar 3, and releasing the button 2 can make the push block 17 move away from the cross bar 3 by extending under the action of the multiple No. 2 spring groups 19. Therefore, the push block 17 can be controlled by the button 2 to move inside the No. 1 slot 15 until it reaches a certain appropriate height. The button 2 can be released, and the push block 17 and the shell 4 are snap-fitted, so that the device can be used normally. When the device is not in use, the bolt and nut device can be loosened and tightened first, and the telescopic rod 9 controls the fixing platform 7 to descend. When the upper block 21 and the lower block 22 are in a hinged setting, they can be rotated. When the vertical rod 6 and the placement basin 11 are on the same horizontal line, the iron hook 5 can be pulled up and snap-fitted with the hook groove 12. Since a spring device 13 is fixedly provided on one side of the iron hook 5, when the iron hook 5 is separated from the hook groove 12, the iron hook 5 returns to the starting position, thereby solving the user's inability to adjust the height and the inability to store.
[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
