[0002] Orthopedics is one of the most common departments in major hospitals. It mainly studies the anatomy, physiology and pathology of the musculoskeletal system, and uses drugs, surgery and physical methods to maintain and develop the normal form and function of this system. Orthopedics often accepts patients with fractures for treatment. After a period of time after the treatment of patients with lower limb fractures, when fracture patients need to walk, they need walkers to help them walk. Existing walkers have a simple structure and good stability, and are often used to reduce the load on the lower limbs. Patients with fractures that do not allow weight-bearing or have weak lower limb muscle strength and poor coordination can choose different walkers according to their own needs to maintain body balance and help recovery.

[0003] In a nursing walker with patent publication number CN219207940U, it is proposed that "when the device is hit in the left and right directions and has a tendency to tip over, under the action of gravity, the auxiliary frame will remain vertically downward, and finally be limited by the limit block to support the support mechanism, effectively preventing the device from tipping over, improving the safety of the device, and solving the problem that the overall structure of the existing traditional nursing walker is relatively simple, and when the patient is accidentally hit in the side direction, it is easy to tip over due to the shift of the center of gravity, causing secondary injuries to the patient";

[0004] However, there are still some deficiencies in the actual use of the above scheme. The walker in this scheme adopts a rigid structure, which leads to a single way of holding the walker and cannot be adapted to patients at different stages, thereby reducing the practicality of the walker.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] 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.

[0020] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model discloses a nursing walker, comprising a base 1, an adjustable gripping structure 3 is arranged at the top of the base 1, the adjustable gripping structure 3 comprises a U-shaped plate 4, an adjusting groove 5 is opened inside the U-shaped plate 4, a rotating shaft 6 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the adjusting groove 5, a prostrate support concave block 7 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the rotating shaft 6, a gripping rod 16 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the prostrate support concave block 7, and a gripping handle 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the prostrate support concave block 7;

[0021] A ratchet 10 is fixedly installed on the other end of the rotating shaft 6, and the front side of the ratchet 10 extends to the outside of the U-shaped plate 4 and is fixedly connected to a turning handle 11. The inner wall of the adjusting groove 5 is slidably connected to an extension rod 13 through a damping spring rod 14, and the back end of the extension rod 13 is fixedly connected to a positioning pin 12, and the top of the positioning pin 12 is engaged with the bottom end of the ratchet 10. The outer side of the U-shaped plate 4 is slidably connected to a limiting pin 15, and the part of the extension rod 13 located on the outside of the U-shaped plate 4 is located on the inner side of the center notch of the limiting pin 15.

[0022] By setting up an adjustable holding structure 3, the turntable can be used to drive the lying support recess 7 and the holding handle 9 to rotate through the rotating shaft 6, and then the positioning pin 12 and the limit latch 15 can be used to limit the rotatable state of the rotating shaft 6 through the ratchet 10, so that the patient can lie on the lying support recess 7 with his arms and hold the holding rod 16 for assisted walking in the early stage of recovery, and the patient can stand and hold the holding handle 9 for assisted walking in the later stage of recovery, thereby achieving the effect that the walker has two usage modes, so that the walker can be adapted to patients at different stages, thereby improving the practicality of the walker.

[0023] Specifically, a support frame 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 1 , and the top of the support frame 2 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the U-shaped plate 4 .

[0024] In this embodiment, the Leo Yong support frame 2 can effectively connect the base 1 and the U-shaped plate 4.

[0025] Specifically, four support columns are fixedly installed at the bottom of the base 1, and an anti-skid bottom plate 17 is provided at the bottom of the support columns. The anti-skid bottom plate 17 is a soft silicone pad.

[0026] In this embodiment, the anti-skid chassis 17 can effectively improve the stability of the support column in contact with the ground.

[0027] Specifically, a positioning plate 8 is sleeved on the surface of the rotating shaft 6 , and the supporting recessed block 7 is located between two positioning plates 8 .

[0028] In this embodiment, the positioning plate 8 can be used to effectively limit the position of the support recess 7.

[0029] When in use, when it is necessary to use the holding handle 9 located below the lying support recess 7, it is necessary to pull the limit pin 15 in advance, so that the limit pin 15 gradually moves away from the extension rod 13, so that the extension rod 13 can move vertically, and then the staff presses down the extension rod 13, so that the extension rod 13 drives the positioning pin 12 to gradually descend, so that the limiting relationship between the positioning pin 12 and the ratchet 10 is released, so that the ratchet 10 can rotate freely at this time, and then the staff can drive the rotating shaft 6 to rotate by the turning handle 11, so that the rotation of the rotating shaft 6 will drive the lying support recess 7 and the holding handle 9 to swap positions, so that the holding handle 9 gradually rotates to the top of the U-shaped plate 4;

[0030] Then, the extension rod 13 is loosened, and the automatic resilience of the damping spring rod 14 can be used to drive the locating pin 12 to complete the overlap state with the ratchet 10 again, so that the ratchet 10 is restricted again, thereby ensuring that the rotating shaft 6 will not rotate by itself, so that the patient using the walker can selectively use the lying support recess 7 or hold the handle 9.

[0031] To sum up, the nursing walker is provided with an adjustable holding structure 3, and the turntable can drive the lying support recess 7 and the holding handle 9 to rotate through the rotating shaft 6, and then the positioning pin 12 and the limit latch 15 can be used to limit the rotatable state of the rotating shaft 6 through the ratchet 10, so that the patient can lie on the lying support recess 7 and hold the holding rod 16 for assisted walking in the early stage of recovery, and the patient can stand and hold the holding handle 9 for assisted walking in the later stage of recovery, thereby achieving the effect that the walker has two usage modes, so that the walker can be adapted to patients at different stages, thereby improving the practicality of the walker.
