In addition, terms such as "first" and "second" are only used for distinguishing descriptions and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0035] As Figures 1 - 8 shown, this embodiment provides an anti-slip walking stick for orthopedic care, which includes a hand-held part and a support part. The hand-held part and the support part are connected to each other through a connecting component 9.

[0036] The hand-held part includes an extension rod 1 and an adjustment component 2 that are rotatably connected through a hinge 7. A grip 6 is fixedly connected to the top end of the extension rod 1. A locking component 8 symmetrical to the hinge 7 is installed between the extension rod 1 and the adjustment component 2. By setting the hinge 7 and the locking component 8, during use, the extension rod 1 and the adjustment component 2 can be rotated and folded through the hinge 7, thereby reducing the space occupied by the walking stick and facilitating the user to carry it when going out by car. Through the setting of the locking component 8, the extended extension rod 1 and the adjustment component 2 can be locked during use, preventing the walking stick from suddenly folding during use, effectively reducing the situation of the extension rod 1 and the adjustment component 2 suddenly folding and causing the user to fall during use.

[0037] The support part includes a bracket 3. A plurality of evenly distributed elastic telescopic components 4 are installed on the bracket 3. The bottom ends of the plurality of elastic telescopic components 4 are all provided with support blocks 5 located below the bracket 3. By setting the elastic telescopic components 4 and the support blocks 5, when the user applies force to the bracket 3 through the grip 6, the extension rod 1 and the adjustment component 2 on an uneven ground, the plurality of elastic telescopic components 4 will contract to different degrees, so that the bottoms of the plurality of support blocks 5 can all contact the ground, avoiding the situation that some support blocks 5 are suspended, and effectively preventing the user from falling and improving the overall stability of the walking stick.

[0038] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, as a preferred embodiment, on the basis of the above method, further, the adjusting component 2 includes a first sleeve 201, a telescopic rod 202 and a bolt 206. The telescopic rod 202 is slidably installed in the first sleeve 201 and penetrates through the bottom of the first sleeve 201. A plurality of uniformly distributed first adjusting holes 203 are formed through the first sleeve 201. Second adjusting holes 204 that cooperate with the first adjusting holes 203 and second mounting holes 205 that cooperate with the connecting component 9 are respectively formed at positions near both ends of the telescopic rod 202. It should be noted that when in use, the length of the telescopic rod 202 extending out of the first sleeve 201 is adjusted according to the height of the user. After the adjustment is completed, the bolt 206 is passed through the first adjusting hole 203 and the second adjusting hole 204 to fix the first sleeve 201 and the telescopic rod 202.

[0039] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, as a preferred embodiment, on the basis of the above method, further, the connecting component 9 includes a mounting sleeve 901 installed on the top of the bracket 3. A connecting pin 902 that cooperates with the second mounting hole 205 is installed through the inside of the mounting sleeve 901. The inner diameter of the mounting sleeve 901 is larger than the diameter of the telescopic rod 202. It should be noted that during the installation process, the telescopic rod 202 is inserted into the inside of the mounting sleeve 901, and the mounting sleeve 901 and the telescopic rod 202 are penetrated through by the connecting pin 902 and the second mounting hole 205, so that the telescopic rod 202 is rotatably connected to the mounting sleeve 901. At the same time, the mounting sleeve 901 can limit the rotation angle of the telescopic rod 202 inserted into its inside, so that the telescopic rod 202 rotates to a certain extent inside the mounting sleeve 901. Thus, when going uphill and downhill, an included angle is formed between the hand-held part and the supporting part. Thus, when going uphill and downhill, the bottom of the supporting part can closely adhere to the ground, improving the stability of the crutch and preventing the user from falling.

[0040] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, as a preferred embodiment, on the basis of the above method, further, the elastic telescopic assembly 4 includes a second sleeve 401. A first mounting hole 10 that cooperates with the second sleeve 401 is provided on the bracket 3. A sliding rod 402 that is slidably connected to the second sleeve 401 is installed through the interior of the second sleeve 401. A limiting piece 404 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding rod 402. A first spring 403 is installed between the limiting piece 404 and the top inner wall of the second sleeve 401. It should be noted that when in use, the second sleeve 401 is fixedly installed on the bracket 3 through the first mounting hole 10. When a downward force is applied to the bracket 3 through the second sleeve 401, the support block 5 against the ground will compress the first spring 403 through the limiting piece 404 at the top of the sliding rod 402, so that the length of the elastic telescopic assembly 4 changes, ensuring that the support block 5 can closely adhere to the ground and preventing the situation of suspension. Through the setting of the limiting piece 404, the sliding rod 402 can be prevented from sliding out of the interior of the second sleeve 401.

[0041] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, as a preferred embodiment, on the basis of the above method, further, the locking assembly 8 includes a first connecting piece 801 fixedly connected to the extension rod 1 and a second connecting piece 802 fixedly connected to the adjusting assembly 2. A first mounting seat 803 is installed on the first connecting piece 801. A second mounting seat 805 is installed on the second connecting piece 802. A locking sleeve 804 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the first mounting seat 803. A plug rod 806 that is slidably connected to the second mounting seat 805 is installed through the second mounting seat 805. A slot 807 that cooperates with the plug rod 806 is provided inside the locking sleeve 804. Two mounting cylinders 811 are installed through the locking sleeve 804. A second spring 808 is provided inside the mounting cylinder 811. One end of the second spring 808 is connected to a ball 809 that extends into the slot 807. The other end of the second spring 808 is connected to the inner wall of the mounting cylinder 811. A slot 810 that cooperates with the ball 809 is provided on the plug rod 806. It should be noted that when the extension rod 1 and the adjusting assembly 2 need to be folded, the plug rod 806 is rotated to disengage the ball 809 from the slot 810, and then the plug rod 806 is pulled out of the locking sleeve 804, so that the locking of the extension rod 1 and the adjusting assembly 2 can be released. At this time, the extension rod 1 and the adjusting assembly 2 can be rotated and folded through the hinge 7. After the extension rod 1 and the adjusting assembly 2 are unfolded, the plug rod 806 is inserted through the second mounting seat 805 and then inserted into the locking sleeve 804 through the slot 807. The plug rod 806 is rotated to make the ball 809 snap into the slot 810 under the action of elastic force, and the locking of the extension rod 1 and the adjusting assembly 2 can be completed.

[0042] Specifically, the working principle of this orthopedic nursing anti-slip crutch is as follows: when the ground is uneven and the user applies force to the support 3 through the grip 6, the extension rod 1 and the adjustment component 2, multiple elastic telescopic components 4 will contract to varying degrees under the force, so that the bottoms of multiple support blocks 5 can all contact the ground, avoiding the situation where some support blocks 5 are suspended. When folding is required, unlock the locking component 8, and then rotate the extension rod 1 and the adjustment component 2 through the hinge 7 for folding, thereby shortening the overall length of the crutch. When the extension rod 1 and the adjustment component 2 are unfolded for use, the extension rod 1 and the adjustment component 2 can be connected and locked through the locking component 8.

[0043] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention rather than to limit the technical solutions described in the present invention. Although this specification has described the present invention in detail with reference to the above respective embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above specific embodiments. Therefore, any modification or equivalent replacement to the present invention; and all technical solutions and their improvements that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention are covered by the scope of the claims of the present invention.
