Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical assistive devices, in particular to a walking aid. Background Art

[0002] Sports medicine is a comprehensive applied science that combines medicine with sports. It studies medical issues related to sports and uses medical knowledge and technology to provide medical supervision and guidance to sports participants, so as to prevent and treat injuries, protect the health of athletes, enhance physical fitness and improve sports performance. Many athletes need treatment due to injuries to joints and other parts of the body. After treatment, patients need to use a walker for rehabilitation assistance treatment for a period of time. The existing publication (announcement) number CN208942769U discloses a walker, including a shell component, a shock absorbing component and a distance measuring component. The shell component includes a grip bar, a cross bar, a front support bar, a connecting rod, an alarm and a rear support bar. The front support bar is located in front of the rear support bar, the connecting rod is located in the middle position of the outer wall of the front support bar, and is welded and fixed to the front support bar. The front support bar and the rear support bar are fixedly connected by the connecting rod, and the grip bar is provided at the top connection of the rear support bar and the front support bar; the piston rod and the inner connecting pipe in the shock absorber move in the vertical direction, thereby achieving a shock absorbing effect. Infrared distance measuring sensors are provided on the two front support bars and the two rear support bars. Because the alarm and the infrared distance measuring sensor are connected by signals, within the range set by the infrared distance measuring sensor, the infrared distance measuring sensor transmits the signal to the alarm, and the alarm sends a signal to remind the patient.

[0003] In the above-mentioned patent, since the height of the grip bar of the device cannot be adjusted, it is inconvenient for users who are too tall or too short to hold it, resulting in inconvenience in use. In addition, the distance between the two grip bars cannot be adjusted, which is also inconvenient for users to hold it. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a walker. Utility Model Content

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 , which shows a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a walking aid of the present utility model. Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 for a detailed introduction to a walking aid.

[0027] A walking aid includes two mounting frames 100 arranged in parallel. The side cross-sections of the mounting frames 100 are both in the shape of "冂". And at the bottom ends of both sides of each mounting frame 100, there is a support cylinder 110 slidably sleeved. On both sides of the bottom of the mounting frame 100, there is a first mounting cavity 120. Inside the first mounting cavity 120, there is a first limiting plate 140 arranged by a laterally compressed elastic member 130. On the other side of the first limiting plate 140, there is a first inserting post 150. The first inserting post 150 slidably passes through the outer side wall of the mounting frame 100. On the outer side wall of the support cylinder 110, there are a plurality of first jacks 160 opened at equal distances from top to bottom. The first inserting post 150 passes through one of the first jacks 160;

[0028] On the side wall of one mounting frame 100, there is a laterally fixed rod 200 fixedly arranged. On the side wall of the other mounting frame 100, there is a connecting cylinder 210 fixedly arranged laterally and aligned with the fixed rod 200. The other end of the fixed rod 200 is slidably inserted into the other end of the connecting cylinder 210. At the end of the fixed rod 200 close to the connecting cylinder 210, there is a second mounting cavity 220. Inside the second mounting cavity 220, there is a second limiting plate 240 arranged by a laterally compressed elastic member 230. On the other side of the second limiting plate 240, there is a second inserting post 250. The second inserting post 250 slidably passes through the outer side wall of the fixed rod 200. On the outer side wall of the connecting cylinder 210, there are a plurality of second jacks 260 opened at equal distances from left to right. The second inserting post 250 passes through one of the second jacks 260.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 again. In the middle of the rod body of the mounting frame 100, there is an anti-slip sleeve 170 wrapped. Inside the anti-slip sleeve 170, there is sponge filled, which is convenient for users to hold by hand through the anti-slip sleeve 170.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 again. At the bottom end of each support cylinder 110, there is a bottom plate 190. At the bottom of the bottom plate 190, there is a rubber anti-slip pad, which improves the friction between the bottom end of the support cylinder 110 and the ground and improves the stability.

[0032] Please refer again Figure 1 The elastic member 130 and the elastic member 230 are springs, and the plug post 150 and the plug post 250 are hemispherical. The hemispherical plug post 150 and the plug post 250 can easily penetrate the plug hole 160 and the plug hole 260.

[0033] Specific usage method: according to the height of the anti-slip cover 170 required by the user, press the plug post 150 to compress the elastic member 130, and then insert the plug post 150 into different sockets 160, so as to adjust the overall height, which is convenient for users who are too tall or too short to use;

[0034] The distance between the two mounting frames 100 can also be adjusted according to the distance between the user's hands, that is, the second column 250 is pressed to compress the second elastic member 230, and then the second column 250 is inserted into a different second socket 260, so as to adjust the distance between the two mounting frames 100.

[0035] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to the embodiments, various modifications may be made thereto and parts thereof may be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the various features in the embodiments disclosed in the present invention may be used in combination with each other in any manner, and the fact that these combinations are not exhaustively described in this specification is only for the sake of omitting space and saving resources. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
