[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-4, the present utility model provides a technical solution: a new type of safety cane for the elderly, including a cane body 1 and a lighting mechanism 2. A sliding groove 5 is opened at the lower end inside the cane body 1, and a number of limiting holes 6 are evenly opened on one side inside the sliding groove 5. The top end of the cane body 1 is fixedly connected with a handle 3. A storage battery 4 is installed inside the handle 3. A charging port 13 is arranged at the bottom end of one side of the handle 3, and the charging port 13 is electrically connected to the storage battery 4 for charging the storage battery 4 through a charging cable. An alarm switch 14 is arranged at one side of the top end of the handle 3. An alarm 8 is installed on one side of the upper end of the cane body 1. The alarm 8 and the alarm switch 14 are electrically connected by an electric wire. A radio 9 is arranged below the alarm 8. The radio 9 includes jacks for mp3, Bluetooth, multimedia card, U disk, etc., and the entertainment function can be configured in different forms. An enhanced signal line 10 is installed below the radio 9, and the enhanced signal line 10 is signal-connected to the radio 9. An adjusting component 7 is arranged inside the sliding groove 5. The adjusting component 7 includes an adjusting rod 71. The adjusting rod 71 is adapted to the sliding groove 5 and can be slidably connected. A placement groove 72 is opened on one side of the adjusting rod 71. The placement groove 72 has the same size as the limiting hole 6. A spring 73 is fixedly connected inside the placement groove 72. A pressing head 74 is fixedly connected to the spring 73. The pressing head 74 is adapted to the limiting hole 6 and can be slidably connected. An anti-slip pad 11 is installed at the bottom end of the adjusting rod 71. Here it is noted that the anti-slip pad 11 can be Figure 1 the anti-slip pad 11 with single-point support shown in Figure 3 and can be replaced with the anti-slip pad 11 with three-point support or four-point support shown in
[0023] to improve the support effect of the cane body 1, making it not easy to fall over, and also improving the support effect on the elderly. Here it is noted that the alarm 8 is configured with the voices of three languages, namely Chinese, Uyghur, and English for "Please make way". In this way, when the elderly walk in crowded places, they can emit the voices of "Please make way" in three different languages to disperse the crowd and help the elderly walk safely.
[0024] The lighting mechanism 2 includes a front lamp 21, a front lamp switch 22, a 360-degree ring lamp 23 and a 360-degree ring lamp switch 24. The front lamp 21 is installed at the front end of the handle 3. The front lamp 21 is electrically connected to the front lamp switch 22. The front lamp 21 can illuminate the areas with insufficient light in the front of the field of vision, while the 360-degree ring lamp 23 can illuminate the surroundings of the standing position, thus expanding the lighting range and making it easier to find items dropped in areas with insufficient light. The front lamp switch 22 and the 360-degree ring lamp switch 24 are both arranged at the upper end of the cane body 1. The 360-degree ring lamp switch 24 is fixedly sleeved on the middle and lower position of the cane body 1. The 360-degree ring lamp 23 is electrically connected to the 360-degree ring lamp switch 24. The front lamp switch 22 and the 360-degree ring lamp switch 24 are respectively electrically connected to the main switch 12. It should be noted here that the alarm switch 14, the radio 9, the front lamp switch 22 and the 360-degree ring lamp switch 24 are respectively connected in parallel to the main switch 12 through wires, while the alarm switch 14 and the alarm 8, the front lamp 21 and the front lamp switch 22, and the 360-degree ring lamp 23 and the 360-degree ring lamp switch 24 are all connected in series through wires.
[0025] It should be noted that the present utility model is a new type of safety cane for the elderly. When using the safety cane, first adjust the adjustment component 7 according to personal height, that is, press the pressing head 74 to drive the spring 73 to compress in the placement groove 72 until the pressing head 74 disengages from the limiting hole 6, and then pull the adjustment rod 71 away from the cane body 1 to an appropriate distance. At this time, the pressing head 74 should exactly correspond to another limiting hole 6. The elastic force generated by the reset of the spring 73 causes the pressing head 74 to re-enter the limiting hole 6 and extend to the outside, so that the adjustment rod 71 can be limited. When using the radio 9, the lighting function or the alarm 8, it is necessary to first turn on the main switch 12, and then it can be used through the gear buttons for switching and adjustment on the radio 9; by pressing the front lamp switch 22 and the 360-degree ring lamp switch 24 respectively, the front lamp 21 and the 360-degree ring lamp 23 can be turned off or on respectively; by pressing the alarm switch 14, the alarm 8 can be turned on to issue a distress alarm, and the entertainment needs can be realized through the radio 9 and the enhanced signal line 10. It should be noted here that the anti-slip pad 11 can be replaced with a three-point support or four-point support anti-slip pad 11, so as to improve the support effect of the cane body 1, make it not easy to fall over, and also improve the support effect on the elderly. Compared with the existing new type of safety cane for the elderly, the present utility model can provide lighting and alarm functions for the elderly when walking at night or in an environment with insufficient lighting through design, and at the same time has an attached entertainment function, and can also adjust the height of the cane according to the body shape of the elderly to achieve the best use effect.
