Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nursing technology, specifically to a fall prevention and walking aid for elderly care. Background Technology
[0002] Some elderly people may experience difficulty walking during their rehabilitation process. In order to provide some assistance to the elderly while walking, walking aids are often used to support them and ensure their safety.
[0003] An existing authorized publication number "CN217186906U" describes a walking aid for elderly care, comprising two supports. A rotating rod is rotatably connected between opposite sides of the two supports. Each opposite side of the two supports has a corresponding through hole. A pad is fixed to the outer surface of the rotating rod. A retractable tube is fixed to the free end of the pad, and both ends of the tube are movably inserted into the two through holes. A second through hole corresponding to the two ends of the tube is provided on the side of each support away from the rotating rod. This utility model is suitable for elderly people to perform rehabilitation exercises outdoors, avoiding exhaustion and falls during prolonged exercise and walking. The walking aid is foldable, making it convenient for elderly people to sit and rest.

The handle 20 is provided between the bottoms of the two sets of installation tubes 19. A pressure rod 16 is provided on one side of the top of the handle 20. A guide groove 23 is provided at the bottom of the sliding pull rod 2. The guide groove 23 and the pressure rod 16 are mutually adapted.
[0028] A pull rope 15 is provided on one side of the sliding rod 2. A second sliding rod 14 is slidably connected to the bottom of the support frame 1. The second sliding rod 14 is connected to the pull rope 15. A push plate 13 is provided at the bottom of one side of the second sliding rod 14.

One side of the push plate 13 extends to the outside through the through groove, so that the push plate 13 can slide along the through groove. A mounting frame 10 is provided on one side of the support frame 1. A pressure plate 11 is connected inside the mounting frame 10. A connecting plate 9 is provided on one side of the bottom of the mounting frame 10. The connecting plate 9 is connected to the first spring 8.
[0029] A mounting chamber 25 is provided on one side of the supporting column 6. Inside the mounting chamber 25 is a spiral disc 31. Multiple sets of hinge blocks 32 are evenly distributed on the outer side of the spiral disc 31. Multiple sets of mounting grooves are provided on the outer side of the spiral disc 31. The hinge blocks 32 are hinged to the inside of the mounting grooves for easy connection. A third spring 33 is provided between the hinge blocks 32 and the spiral disc 31. Multiple sets of locking grooves 34 are provided on the inner side of the mounting chamber 25. A connecting ring 35 is provided on one side of the spiral disc 31. A connecting rod 37 is provided on one side of the connecting ring 35 inside the mounting chamber 25. A torsion spring 36 is provided on the outer side of 37. The torsion spring 36 is connected to the connecting ring 35. A connecting strip 24 is wound on the side of the winding disc 31 away from the connecting ring 35. A binding strap 28 is provided at the bottom of the connecting strip 24. There are two sets of connecting strips 24. The binding strap 28 is located at the bottom of the connecting strip 24. A buckle 26 is provided at the bottom of the other set of connecting strips 24. An insert block 30 is provided on one side of the binding strap 28 so that the two sets of connecting strips 24 can be connected. A female Velcro 27 is provided on one side of the binding strap 28, and a female Velcro 29 is provided on the other side of the binding strap 28.
[0030] Working principle: When an elderly person uses the walking aid, they first hold the top of the support frame 1 and press the handle 20. Then, the handle 20 drives the pressure rod 16 to move, so that the pressure rod 16 presses against the guide groove 23. Under the guidance of the guide groove 23, the pressure rod 16 moves towards the position of the first slide rod 5 and presses the return spring 4, so that the return spring 4 is compressed. At the same time, the sliding rod 2 pulls the pull rope 15, so that the second slide rod 14 moves upward. Then, during the upward movement, it drives the push plate 13 to move. Then, during the upward movement, the push plate 13 pushes the pressure plate 11 to flip, so that it is no longer supported on the ground, thereby releasing the support of the universal wheel 12. At this time, the walking aid can be pushed to move to assist walking.
[0031] Before the elderly person walks, they first pull out the connecting strap 24, then tie the binding strap 28 around their waist, and attach the female hook and loop fastener 29 to the female hook and loop fastener 27 to secure the binding strap 28 around their waist. Then, they pull out the buckle 26 and insert the insert block 30 into the buckle 26 to connect the two sets of connecting straps 24. When the elderly person falls, they will quickly pull out the connecting strap 24. During the rapid pull-out, the connecting strap 24 will cause the winding disc 31 to rotate rapidly clockwise. Then, during the inertia, the hinge block 32 will be forced to flip and cause the third spring 33 to extend, so that the hinge block 32 is locked inside the locking groove 34, preventing the winding disc 31 from rotating. This prevents the connecting strap 24 from being pulled out of the mounting chamber 25, keeping the person who is about to fall to the ground suspended in mid-air and preventing them from falling to the ground.
