Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of auxiliary walking devices; more specifically, it relates to an auxiliary walking device. Background Technology

[0002] Assistive walking devices are devices designed to help people with gait disorders or mobility impairments walk. Their main purpose is to provide support, stability, and safety to help users maintain balance while walking. Using assisted walking devices can reduce the risk of falls, which is especially important for the elderly and rehabilitation patients. Assistive walking devices can enable users to participate in more social activities, maintain an active lifestyle, and thus improve their quality of life.

[0003] Currently, existing assistive walking devices suffer from several drawbacks. Height adjustment is primarily achieved via bolts, requiring frequent bolt rotation, which is inconvenient and prone to bolt aging and damage. This reduces the device's practicality. Furthermore, users of these devices often have limited mobility and physical strength, leading to fatigue and the need for rest after prolonged use. However, the simple structure of existing devices hinders this rest, further compromising their usability. Therefore, an assistive walking device is urgently needed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides an auxiliary walking device to solve the problems existing in the background art.

[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: an auxiliary walking device, comprising:

[0006] The support frame has casters installed on the outer surfaces of the four corners at the bottom of the support frame, adjustment structures are provided at both ends of one side of the support frame, a seat structure is provided at the upper end of one side of the support frame, and an armrest is provided on the outer surface of the upper end of the adjustment structure.

[0007] The adjustment structure includes a sleeve rod, and there are two sets of sleeve rods, and the two sets of sleeve rods are respectively fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of both ends of one side of the support frame;

[0008] The seat structure includes a mounting block, which is inserted into the interior of the outer surface of the upper side of the support frame.

[0009] Preferably, the adjustment structure further includes adjustment holes, and multiple sets of adjustment holes are provided. All sets of adjustment holes are opened inside the outer surface of one side of the sleeve rod. A plug rod is inserted into the upper end of the sleeve rod, and a handrail is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the other side of the upper end of the plug rod. A hinge frame is fixedly connected inside the plug rod, and a hinge rod is hingedly connected to the outer surface of the hinge frame. A positioning block is fixedly connected to the lower end of the hinge rod. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall surface of one side of the plug rod, and a spring and a button are sleeved on the outer surface of the connecting rod. The button is inserted into the inner surface of the other side of the plug rod. This design allows the plug rod to move inside the sleeve rod.

[0010] Preferably, a positioning hole is provided inside the outer surface of one side of the lower end of the insertion rod, and the position of the positioning hole corresponds to the position of the multiple sets of adjustment holes. The internal dimensions of the positioning hole, the internal dimensions of the adjustment hole, and the external dimensions of the positioning block are mutually adapted. A limit ring is provided on the outer surface at the middle position of the hinge frame, and the inner surface of the limit ring is in contact with the outer surface of the hinge rod. This design allows the insertion rod to be positioned inside the sleeve rod by inserting the outer surface of one end of the positioning block into the adjustment hole.

[0011] Preferably, the upper end of the hinge rod has a connecting groove, one end of the connecting rod is inserted into the connecting groove, the outer surface of one inner end of the button is in contact with the outer surface of the connecting groove of the hinge rod, and the two ends of the spring are respectively pressed against the inner wall surface of one side of the inserted rod and the outer surface of the connecting groove of the other side of the hinge rod. This design allows the hinge rod to be hinged and rotated by pressing the button.

[0012] Preferably, the seat structure further includes a baffle, which is snapped into the interior of the bottom surface of the mounting block at the middle position. The outer surface of the lower end of the mounting block is hinged to a seat plate. This design, through the support of the baffle on the seat plate, prevents the seat plate from hinged and rotating downwards.

[0013] Preferably, a rotating groove is provided inside the middle position of the bottom surface of the mounting block, a rotating ring is provided at the upper end of the baffle, and the internal dimensions of the rotating groove are adapted to the external dimensions of the rotating ring.

This design allows the seat plate to rotate downwards at a maximum angle of ninety degrees.

[0014] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: By pressing the button, the hinge rod is driven to rotate hingedly, which moves the positioning block at the lower end of the hinge rod out of the adjustment hole. At this time, the insertion rod can be moved inside the sleeve rod. When the insertion rod is moved to the appropriate position, the button is released. Due to the elasticity of the spring itself, the hinge rod is automatically reset, and the positioning block is inserted into the adjustment hole at the corresponding position. Thus, the position of the insertion rod can be positioned, which facilitates the quick adjustment of the handrail height and improves the practicality of the equipment to a certain extent.

[0015] By rotating the baffle, the baffle no longer supports the seat, and the seat can then be hinged downwards and rotated. When the user is tired after walking for a while using the equipment, they can sit directly on the seat to rest, which improves the practicality of the equipment to a certain extent. Moreover, its overall structure is simple and reasonable in design, highly practical, and easy to promote and apply. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the forms of the various structures described in the following embodiments are merely illustrative. The auxiliary walking device involved in this utility model is not limited to the structures described in the following embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment proposes an auxiliary walking device, including:

[0026] A support frame 1 has casters 2 mounted on the outer surfaces of its four bottom corners. Adjustment structures 3 are located at both ends of one side of the support frame 1. Each adjustment structure 3 includes two sets of sleeve rods 31, which are fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of both ends of one side of the support frame 1. The adjustment structure 3 also includes multiple sets of adjustment holes 32, all located inside the outer surface of one side of the sleeve rods 31. A rod 33 is inserted into the upper end of the sleeve rod 31, and a handrail 5 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the other side of the upper end of the rod 33. A hinge frame 34 is fixedly connected inside the rod 33, and a hinge rod 35 is hingedly connected to the outer surface of the hinge frame 34. A positioning block is fixedly connected to the lower end of the hinge rod 35. 36. A positioning hole is provided inside the outer surface of one side of the lower end of the insertion rod 33, and the position of the positioning hole corresponds to the position of multiple sets of adjustment holes 32. The internal dimensions of the positioning hole, the internal dimensions of the adjustment holes 32 and the external dimensions of the positioning block 36 are mutually adapted. A limit ring is provided on the outer surface of the middle position of the hinge frame 34, and the inner surface of the limit ring is in contact with the outer surface of the hinge rod 35. This design allows the positioning block 36 to be inserted into the positioning hole and different sets of adjustment holes 32, thereby adjusting and positioning the position of the insertion rod 33 inside the sleeve rod 31. By limiting the hinge rod 35 through the limit ring, the hinge rod 35 will not move left or right when the hinge is rotated, thereby avoiding any deviation of the position of the positioning block 36 relative to the positioning hole.

[0027] A connecting rod 37 is fixedly connected to the inner wall surface of one side of the insertion rod 33, and a spring 38 and a button 39 are sleeved on the outer surface of the connecting rod 37. The button 39 is inserted into the inner surface of the outer surface of the other side of the insertion rod 33. A connecting groove is opened inside the upper end of the hinge rod 35. One end of the connecting rod 37 is inserted into the connecting groove. The outer surface of one inner end of the button 39 is in contact with the outer surface of the connecting groove of the hinge rod 35. The two ends of the spring 38 are respectively pressed against the inner wall surface of one side of the insertion rod 33 and the outer surface of the connecting groove of the other side of the hinge rod 35. This design allows for operation by pressing the button. Button 39 allows the hinge rod 35 to rotate hingedly. Simultaneously, the connecting groove on the hinge rod 35 ensures smoother hinged rotation without obstruction. This allows the positioning block 36 at the lower end of the hinge rod 35 to move inwards and disengage from the adjustment hole 32, thus adjusting the position of the insertion rod 33. Releasing button 39 allows the spring 38 to support the hinge rod 35, resetting it and causing the positioning block 36 to re-insert into the corresponding adjustment hole 32, thus repositioning the insertion rod 33.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, based on the same concept as the above embodiments, this embodiment also proposes:

[0030] A seat structure 4 is provided on the upper end of one side of the support frame 1. An armrest 5 is provided on the outer surface of the upper side of the adjustment structure 3. The seat structure 4 includes a mounting block 41, which is inserted into the inner part of the outer surface of the upper side of the support frame 1. The seat structure 4 also includes a baffle 42, which is snapped into the inner part of the middle position of the bottom surface of the mounting block 41. A seat plate 43 is hinged to the outer surface of the lower side of the mounting block 41. A rotating groove is provided in the inner part of the middle position of the bottom surface of the mounting block 41. A rotating ring is provided at the upper end of the baffle 42, and the inner size of the rotating groove matches the outer size of the rotating ring. The inner side of the lower hinge connection of the seat plate 43 is arc-shaped, and the outer side of the lower hinge connection of the seat plate 43 is right-angled.

[0031] In this embodiment, by rotating the baffle 42 so that the direction of the baffle 42 is the same as the direction of the lower outer surface of the mounting block 41, the baffle 42 no longer supports the seat plate 43. At this time, the seat plate 43 can be hinged and rotated downwards. At the same time, through the design of the lower end of the seat plate 43, the hinge frame 34 can be hinged and rotated downwards at an angle of ninety degrees, which makes it convenient for the user to sit on the outer surface of the seat plate 43 and rest quickly when using the equipment.

[0032] Working principle: When using the equipment, first move the equipment to a suitable position using the casters 2, then press button 39. The hinge rod 35 will rotate, allowing the positioning block 36 to disengage from the adjustment hole 32. Then, the insert rod 33 can be moved up and down inside the sleeve rod 31. After moving to a suitable position, release button 39. The spring 38 will return the hinge rod 35 to its original position, allowing the positioning block 36 to be inserted into the corresponding adjustment hole 32. This allows the position of the insert rod 33 to be adjusted, thus adjusting the height of the armrest 5 according to the user's actual situation. The user can then hold the armrest 5 for assistance while walking. When the user is tired from using the equipment, the baffle 42 can be rotated, and the seat 43 can be hinged downwards and rotated. The user can then sit on the outer surface of the upper end of the seat 43 to rest. This is the complete working principle of this utility model.

[0033] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections.
