[0018] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments.

[0019] Embodiment 1

[0020] Referring to Figures 1-4 , a walking aid device includes a frame 1. A number of support legs 2 are provided at the bottom of the frame 1. Grips 3 are installed on both sides of the top of the frame 1. Two limiting rods 4 are placed on one side of the frame 1. Both of the two limiting rods 4 are arranged in an L shape. There is a gap between the two limiting rods 4. One ends of the two limiting rods 4 are installed on the frame 1. Grooves 5 are opened on both of the two limiting rods 4. A number of connecting plates 6 are placed between the two limiting rods 4. Both ends of the number of connecting plates 6 are installed with rotating rods 7. One ends of the number of rotating rods 7 are located in the two grooves 5. There are gaps between the number of connecting plates 6.

[0021] In the attachedFigure 2 It can be seen that several connecting plates 6 can move away from the frame 1, so that the device can be in a state of assisting walking. At this time, the friction force between several rotating rods 7 and the two grooves 5 is not less than 7 N, so that when the operator uses the device, several rotating rods 7 will not slide in the two grooves, making the operation of the device by the operator simpler; combined with the attached Figure 1 , at this time, several rotating rods 7 are all located within the frame 1, so that the device can be turned into a chair, enabling the patient using the device to sit down and rest.

[0022] Embodiment 2

[0023] In Embodiment 1, several rotating rods 7 can rotate in the two grooves 5, which poses a certain danger when the person using the device sits on the device. On the basis of Embodiment 1, for optimization, refer to Figures 1-4 , several connecting ropes 8 are placed on one side of one connecting plate 6, several connecting ropes 8 all penetrate several connecting plates 6, and there are intervals between several connecting ropes 8.

[0024] By using several connecting ropes 8 to connect several connecting plates 6, after the patient sits on several connecting plates 6, several connecting plates 6 and several rotating rods 7 are not easy to rotate, making the user safer. Moreover, the setting of the connecting ropes 8 enables the intervals between several connecting plates 6 to be fixed, thereby reducing the difficulty of adjusting the positions of several connecting plates 6 in the grooves of the two limiting rods 4 in Embodiment 1.

[0025] Embodiment 3

[0026] In Embodiment 1, the position of several rotating rods 7 and the two grooves is limited and adjusted by friction force, which increases the difficulty of adjusting the positions of several rotating rods 7 driving several connecting plates 6 on the two limiting rods 4. On the basis of Embodiments 1-2, for optimization, refer to Figures 1-4 , rollers 9 are installed on the outer sides of several rotating rods 7, several rollers 9 are all located within the two grooves 5, two of the rollers 9 are made of magnetic materials, magnets 10 are installed at the tops of the two limiting rods 4, and two of the rollers 9 are attracted to the two magnets 10.

[0027] When setting the rollers 9, the two grooves 5 will be enlarged, so that several rollers 9 can roll in the two grooves 5. Moreover, limiting strips 13 are provided at the two grooves 5 to make the device more beautiful, thereby reducing the difficulty of the movement of several rotating rods 7 in the two grooves 5, combined with the attached Figure 4, by using the magnet 10 to adsorb the two rollers 9 at the top, so that a plurality of connecting plates 6 will not break away from the limit of the magnet 10 due to the connecting rope 8. When the device is used for walking assistance, a plurality of connecting plates 6 will all move away from the frame 1. When the device is convenient for the patient to rest, after the adsorption of the magnet 10 on the two rollers 9 is released by applying a force greater than 10 N, they will reach the frame 1 due to gravity, so that it is convenient for the patient to sit on the device to rest.

[0028] Embodiment 4

[0029] On the basis of Embodiment 1 for optimization, refer to Figures 1-4 , the bent parts of the two limiting rods 4 are both set to be arc-shaped, anti-slip pads 11 are installed at the bottoms of a plurality of support legs 2, and soft pads 12 are installed on both of the two grips 3.

[0030] By processing the bent parts of the two limiting rods 4 into arc shapes, the mechanical strength of the two limiting rods 4 can be improved, thereby reducing the probability that the two limiting rods 4 will break.

[0031] The anti-slip pads 11 provided can enhance the grasping force of the device on the ground, so that the device will not slide relative to the ground during the moving process, making the operator safer; the soft pads 12 provided make it so that after the operator grasps the grips 3, the burrs on the edges of the grips 3 are not likely to cause harm to the operator.

[0032] The above is only the preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution of the present invention and its inventive concept, makes equivalent replacements or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
