Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of walking sticks, and in particular relates to a multifunctional connection structure for walking sticks. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, walking sticks used in daily life and sports, including trekking poles, ski poles, trail running poles, senior citizen walking sticks, and hiking poles, typically provide stability and support, reducing leg strain. However, as users increasingly demand additional functions such as photography, tripods or selfie sticks are often carried for convenience. Carrying multiple pieces of equipment in hiking or other sports scenarios is cumbersome and inconvenient, increasing the user's overall gear load. Furthermore, setting up tents or tarps outdoors often requires support poles, which also add to the user's gear load, hindering lightweight outdoor travel. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model provides a multi-functional connecting structure for walking sticks. By setting connectors on the walking sticks, it is convenient for users to connect devices such as cameras and mobile phones, and it is also convenient to combine them to form support poles to build tents or canopies. It is more convenient and quick to carry and use, and reduces the burden on users.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A multi-functional connecting structure for walking sticks includes a stick tube with a handle at its upper end. A connector is located at the top of the handle, and handle connecting portions are located at both ends of the connector. The handle has connecting holes that mate with the handle connecting portions. The connector and handle are detachably connected via the handle connecting portions and connecting holes. Each handle connecting portion has a threaded section at its top. Both ends of the connector have handle connecting portions, and either end can be detachably connected to the connecting hole at the top of the handle. When one end of the connector is connected to the handle, the other end is exposed, facilitating the mounting of cameras, phone holders, or other supports. This enhances the functionality of the walking stick, eliminating the need to carry tripods or selfie sticks, thus improving user convenience and reducing the user's load. Furthermore, since both ends of the connector have handle connecting portions, one connector can connect two walking sticks simultaneously to form a support pole, facilitating the support of tents or tarps, further reducing the user's equipment load by eliminating the need to carry a separate support pole.

[0006] Preferably, the outer surface of the cane handle connecting part is provided with external threads, and the inner wall of the connecting hole is provided with internal threads that mate with the external threads. In this way, the connecting part and the cane handle are fixed by threaded engagement, making the connection process convenient, quick, and highly reliable.

[0007] Preferably, the connector has a middle section between the two handle connecting parts, the outer diameter of which is larger than the outer diameter of the handle connecting parts, and the middle section has a radially penetrating through hole. The middle section can abut against the top of the handle to improve connection stability, and the through hole allows for the threading of a rope for easy carrying. During installation, the through hole facilitates leverage to improve the fastness of the connector.

[0008] Preferably, the cane tube includes at least two cane tube segments and a wrench screw located between adjacent cane tube segments. The cane tube segments are positioned together by the wrench screw, and the diameter of the through hole in the middle portion is larger than the outer diameter of the thread of the wrench screw. In this way, the wrench screw can pass through the through hole, thereby facilitating the installation and fixation of the connector to the cane handle.

[0009] Preferably, the connector has a rubber ring at the base of the stick handle connection, and a washer is provided at the junction of the stick handle connection and the threaded section, with the washer passing through the threaded section. By setting the rubber ring and washer, the connection between the stick handle connection and devices such as cameras or mobile phone holders can be strengthened, effectively preventing loosening and slippage.

[0010] Preferably, the threaded section uses a 1 / 4-inch thread. Using a 1 / 4-inch thread allows for direct mating with the screw holes on the bottom of the camera or the screw holes on the phone holder, improving installation convenience.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: (1) By setting a connector at the top of the stick handle, it is convenient to connect and position cameras, mobile phones, etc. with the stick, thereby increasing the functionality of the stick and improving the user's convenience, while reducing the user's equipment load and helping to achieve equipment lightweighting; (2) Both ends of the connector are provided with stick handle connecting parts, which can connect two sticks at the same time to form a support rod, which is convenient for supporting equipment such as tents or canopies, eliminating the need to carry the support rod and further reducing the user's equipment load; (3) The support rod formed by the combination of two sticks can be adjusted in length, which is convenient for setting up tents; (4) The installation and disassembly process of the connector and the stick handle is convenient and quick, and the connection is stable and reliable.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0022] like Figure 1 In the illustrated embodiment, a multi-functional connecting structure for a walking stick includes a cane tube 3, with a handle 2 at the upper end of the cane tube 3. The cane tube 3 is inserted into and fixedly connected to the handle 2, and a connector 1 is provided at the top of the handle 2. Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the connector 1 has a handle connecting part 12 at each end, and the handle 2 has a connecting hole 2a that is adapted to the handle connecting part 12. The outer surface of the handle connecting part 12 has an external thread 12a, and the inner wall of the connecting hole 2a has an internal thread that mates with the external thread 12a. The connector 1 and the handle 2 are engaged by the thread of the handle connecting part 12 and the connecting hole 2a, thereby realizing the detachable connection between the connector 1 and the handle 2.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the connector 1 has a middle portion 14 between the two cane handle connecting portions 12, and the outer diameter of the middle portion 14 is larger than the outer diameter of the cane handle connecting portion 12. Figure 1 As shown, when the connector 1 is connected to the cane handle 2, the edge of the middle part 14 abuts against the top of the cane handle 2, thereby achieving reliable positioning of the connector 1 and the cane handle 2 and preventing tilting and wobbling between the connector 1 and the cane handle 2. For the user, the hand holds the side of the cane handle 2, so the setting of the connector 1 will not affect the user's grip.

[0024] like Figure 2As shown, the top of the cane handle connecting part 12 is provided with threaded sections 11, which use 1 / 4-inch threads. Since devices such as the bottom of a camera, a camera quick-release plate, or a mobile phone holder 6 usually use 1 / 4-inch screw holes, the use of 1 / 4-inch threads in the threaded sections 11 can be easily adapted to the user's device, thereby enabling a quick installation and removal process.

[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, the connector 1 has a rubber ring 16 at the base of the cane handle connecting part 12, and a washer 15 at the junction of the cane handle connecting part 12 and the threaded section 11, with the washer 15 passing through the threaded section 11. In this way, when the connector 1 is connected and fixed to the cane handle 2 or devices such as cameras and mobile phones, the rubber ring 16 and the washer 15 can play a pre-tightening effect, ensuring a stable and reliable connection.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the cane tube 3 includes at least two cane tube segments and a wrench screw 4 located between adjacent cane tube segments. The cane tube segments are positioned by the wrench screw 4. Since the wrench screw 4 has threads, it can be easily unscrewed. In this embodiment, there are two cane tube segments, namely a first cane tube segment 3a and a second cane tube segment 3b. The first cane tube segment 3a and the second cane tube segment 3b can slide relative to each other. The wrench screw 4 is located at the bottom of the first cane tube segment 3a to form an external lock. The locking and unlocking states between the two cane tube segments are switched by turning the wrench part of the wrench screw 4. The middle part 14 has a radially penetrating through hole 13. The diameter of the through hole 13 in the middle part 14 is larger than the outer diameter of the thread of the wrench screw 4. Therefore, after the wrench screw 4 is unscrewed, it can be inserted into the through hole 13 in the middle part 14, thereby facilitating the tightening or loosening of the connector 1 by the wrench screw 4, improving the connection reliability of the connector 1.

[0027] In actual use, such as Figure 2 As shown, the rubber ring 16 is fitted onto the base of the cane handle connection 12, and the washer 15 is passed through the threaded section 11 and glued to the top of the cane handle connection 12, as shown. Figure 3 As shown, the connector 1 is screwed into the connecting hole 2a at the top of the cane handle 2 through the cane handle connecting part 12, forming as shown in the figure. Figure 1 The connection positioning is shown. (As shown) Figure 4 As shown, when it is necessary to fix the camera 5, the threaded section 11 at the top of the connector 1 is tightened into the threaded hole at the bottom of the camera 5 through thread engagement. Figure 5 As shown, when it is necessary to fix the mobile phone 7, the threaded section 11 at the top of the connector 1 and the threaded hole at the bottom of the mobile phone holder 6 are screwed together through thread engagement, and then the mobile phone 7 is fixed on the mobile phone holder 6. The mobile phone holder 6 can use a mobile phone clip or similar device to achieve quick fixation. In addition, the connector 1 can also be fitted with other compatible brackets or gimbals to fix other corresponding equipment and meet the different needs of users.

[0028] When used as a support pole, two trekking poles are needed; for example, two trekking poles are usually used together in scenarios such as hiking and mountaineering. Figure 6 As shown, simply screw the first cane 301 onto the cane handle connection 12 at one end of the connector 1, and then screw the second cane 302 onto the cane handle connection 12 at the other end of the connector 1 to form a support rod. Figure 7 As shown, the upper end of the assembled support rod can then be placed against the corresponding support position of the tent 8, while the lower end of the support rod is driven into the ground, thus providing support and positioning for the tent 8. The length of the support rod can be adjusted by the relative extension of the separate pole sections and tightened using the wrench screw 4. When it is necessary to disassemble the support rod, one pole can be unscrewed first, and then the wrench screw 4 can be inserted into the through hole 13 of the connector 1 to unscrew the other pole.

The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this utility model. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
