[0024] The meanings of the reference signs in the drawings are as follows:

[0025] Gait training unit 1, cross connecting piece 11, handrail assembly 12, support slide rod 121, support rod 122, distal end support part 1221, foot pad 1222, handrail slide rod 123, support foot 13. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The utility model will be further described below with reference to the drawings.

[0027] Referring to Figures 1-3 The gait correction training device of the utility model contains at least three gait training units 1. Each gait training unit 1 is composed of cross connecting piece 11 and the handrail assembly 12 that is symmetrically distributed at the two ends of cross connecting piece 11. Handrail assembly 12 further includes support slide rod 121, support rod 122 and handrail slide rod 123, wherein support rod 122 plays the role of connecting support slide rod 121 and handrail slide rod 123, to vertically support handrail slide rod 123. The two ends of cross connecting piece 11 are connected with the support slide rods 121 of the handrail assemblies 12 on both sides respectively, so that the handrail assemblies 12 on both sides will be connected as a whole, forming a basic unit structure. For Parkinson's patients, such structural design provides multi-directional support points, which facilitates them to grasp and rely on during the walking training process, and enhances the sense of security.

[0028] Between the adjacent handrail assemblies 12 on the same side, support slide rod 121 and support slide rod 121 are mutually slidingly sleeved, and handrail slide rod 123 and handrail slide rod 123 are also mutually slidingly sleeved. Moreover, the inner diameter of the mutually slidingly sleeved support slide rods 121 and the inner diameter of the mutually slidingly sleeved handrail slide rods 123 are gradually increased from front to back. Parkinson's patients have large differences in physical condition and motor ability, and this adjustable structure is like a nested telescope, and patients or medical staff can flexibly stretch or contract the device according to the actual height, step and body coordination of the patient, to adapt to the unique motor needs of each patient. For example, some Parkinson's patients may have small steps due to muscle stiffness, so the slide rods can be contracted to make the device more suitable for their walking habits, and for patients with relatively mild symptoms and slightly larger steps, the slide rods can be stretched to the appropriate length. This adjustable structure not only provides personalized training support for patients, but also lays the foundation for the contraction and storage of the device. When storage is needed, the user only needs to slidingly sleeve the support slide rods 121 and the handrail slide rods 123 of each gait training unit inward, so that the device can be greatly shortened in the length direction.

[0029] The support rod 122 is fixedly connected to the front end of the support slide rod 121, so that the support slide rod 121 has sufficient stroke for contraction. In the handrail assembly 12 of the last gait training unit 1, two support rods 122 are arranged in front and back. This design can enhance the stability of the rear end of the last handrail slide rod 123, so that the patient can stably hold the handrail slide rod 123 and prevent shaking during use. Parkinson's patients have unstable center of gravity when walking, which can easily cause them to lose balance. The increased support structure can better protect their safety during training and reduce the risk of falling.

[0030] The handrail assembly 12 is also equipped with support feet 13, which are fixedly connected to the support slide rod 121, and the lower ends of the support feet 13 are at the same horizontal height and aligned with each other. The two ends of the cross connecting piece 11 are fixedly connected to the support feet 13 of the two handrail assemblies 12, and the lower end of the cross connecting piece 11 is also aligned with the lower end of the support feet 13. This design forms a stable plane at the bottom of the entire device to stably support the entire device. For Parkinson's patients with poor balance, a stable base is crucial to ensure that the device does not easily shake or fall during training. In addition, the upper sides of the front and rear ends of the cross connecting piece 11 are chamfered, which is to avoid the patient from accidentally kicking the end face of the cross connecting piece 11 during use, to avoid hindering the patient's movement and to ensure the safety of the patient's training.

[0031] In this embodiment, the support rod 122 is fixedly connected to the support foot 13 to provide more stable support for the entire structure. The lower part of the support rod 122 protrudes away from the cross connecting piece 11 to form a distal support portion 1221 for abutting against the ground, and a foot pad 1222 for contacting the ground is installed on the distal support portion 1221. This design forms an inverted trapezoidal structure in the cross section of the entire device, which can lower the center of gravity and improve the stability of the entire device, greatly improving the safety of the patient during training. For the common panic gait of Parkinson's patients, stable support can help them better control their pace and reduce the risk of falling.

[0032] Method of use: medical staff or family members adjust the length of the device by sliding the support slide rod 121 and the handrail slide rod 123 according to the patient's height and stride. Then the patient holds the handrail slide rod 123 and uses the device for gait correction training. During training, the support feet 13, the distal support portion 1221 and the foot pad 1222 work together to ensure the stability of the device and prevent the patient from falling. Parkinson's patients are recommended to train under the accompaniment of medical staff or family members, and the device and training intensity should be adjusted in time according to the patient's physical condition and training progress.

[0033] The storage method is as follows: when the device is not used, the support slide rod 121 and the handrail slide rod 123 which are sleeved and slidable between the adjacent handrail assemblies 12 on the same side are pushed inward, the gait training units 1 are close to each other, and the device is shrunk to the minimum length. After being shrunk, the device is greatly reduced in size, and can be easily placed in a narrow space such as a corner of a wall or a side of a cabinet, so that the device is conveniently stored and occupied space is effectively reduced.

[0034] As can be seen from the above, the gait correction training device is specially designed for Parkinson patients, and has many advantages. In terms of adaptability, the multi-section gait training unit is matched with the support slide rod and the handrail slide rod which can be sleeved and slidable and have increasing inner diameters in sequence, so that the device can be flexibly adjusted according to the height, step length and body coordination of the patient, and the individual training needs are met. In terms of stability, the support feet are fixedly connected with the support slide rod, the cross connecting piece connects the support feet, a stable plane is formed at the bottom, and double support rods are additionally arranged at the last side unit, so that the stable structure effectively reduces the risk of falling of the patient during training. The safety design is thoughtful, the slope chamfer processing of the cross connecting piece prevents the patient from being injured by collision, and the distal end support part and the foot pad at the lower part of the support rod increase the stability of contact with the ground. In addition, the device can be shrunk and stored when not in use, so that the space occupation is greatly reduced, storage and management are more convenient, and comprehensive and practical support is provided for the gait correction training of Parkinson patients.

[0035] The above embodiments only exemplarily illustrate the principles and effects of the gait correction training device, and are not used to limit the gait correction training device. Any person skilled in the art can modify or change the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the gait correction training device. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or changes made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical thought of the gait correction training device should be covered by the claims of the gait correction training device.
