Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of walking aids, and in particular to a fall prevention walking aid for elderly care. Background Technology

[0002] Walking aids are devices designed to assist the human body in supporting its weight, maintaining balance, and walking. Elderly people with mobility issues often need to use walking aids to help them support their weight, maintain balance, and walk. Existing walking aids typically consist of a frame, handles, and pulleys.

[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent application with patent number CN202221768863.X, which discloses a walking aid for elderly people to facilitate travel, exercise, and rehabilitation. The aid includes a support leg, handrail, upper cross brace, lower cross brace, side brace, seat, cup holder, alarm-type pedometer, safety reflective film, light, carrying bag, alarm button, and light switch button. However, this technical solution relies solely on one set of rollers to support the support leg on one side. When the elderly person pushes the walking aid forward with the support of these rollers, they are prone to excessive forward tilting due to instability. Since the support is only provided by one set of rollers, the walking aid is very likely to tip over. Therefore, there is also the problem that the walking aid is prone to tipping over when the elderly person pushes it forward using the rollers at the bottom of the support leg. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a fall prevention and walking aid for elderly care.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A fall prevention and walking aid for elderly care includes a set of first legs. A fixing rod is fixed to one outer wall of the first leg. A second leg is fixed to one outer wall of the fixing rod. A first roller is provided on the bottom outer wall of the second leg. A fixing block is fixed to the outer wall of the second leg. A first elastic telescopic rod is fixed to the outer wall of the fixing block. A second roller is provided at the telescopic end of the first elastic telescopic rod. Handrails are fixed to the top outer walls of the first and second legs. A cross brace is fixed to one outer wall of the handrail.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a rotating shaft is fixed to the outer wall of the second leg, a connecting block is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and a metal plate is fixed to the outer wall of the connecting block.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, elastic pads are fixed to the outer walls on both sides of the metal plate.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, a second magnetic baffle is fixed to the bottom outer wall of the fixing rod.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a second elastic telescopic rod is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the second leg, and a first magnetic baffle is fixed to the telescopic end of the second elastic telescopic rod.

[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, a friction pad is fixed to the top outer wall of the handrail.

[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model: a friction head is fixed to the outer wall of the bottom of the first leg, and an elastic protective plate is fixed to the outer wall of one side of the metal plate.

[0013] As a further improvement of this utility model, multiple hooks are fixed to the outer wall of the fixing rod.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] 1. When standing, the user can hold onto the handrail for support. When walking forward, the user can hold the handrail and slightly lift the frame consisting of the first and second legs, allowing the first roller at the bottom of the second leg to contact the ground independently, while simultaneously lifting the bottom of the first leg off the ground. At this point, the user can walk forward while holding onto the handrail. If the user loses their balance and falls backward, the bottom of the first leg will quickly touch the ground, providing immediate support. If the user leans forward, the second roller, supported by the first elastic telescopic rod on one side of the second leg, will also quickly touch the ground, providing overall support for the second leg and preventing the walker from tipping forward, thus improving safety during use.

[0016] 2. The user can lift the metal plate upwards so that the outer wall of the metal plate is against the side of the first magnetic baffle. At this time, the first magnetic baffle will attract the metal plate with its own magnetic force, so that the metal plate no longer blocks the space between the first leg, the fixing rod and the second leg. At this time, the user can continue to use the walking aid to assist walking.

[0017] 3. The friction head can increase the friction between the bottom outer wall of the first leg and the ground. After the user flips the metal plate upward, the elastic protective plate at the bottom of the metal plate will shield the pivot and connecting block, making the side of the metal plate facing the user smooth. At the same time, the elastic protective plate will cushion the user's legs and pivot when walking. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solution of this patent will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0024] The embodiments of this patent are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this patent, and should not be construed as limiting this patent.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] A fall prevention walking aid for elderly care, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes a set of first legs 1, a fixing rod 2 is fixed to one outer wall of the first leg 1, a second leg 17 is fixed to one outer wall of the fixing rod 2, a first roller 6 is provided on the bottom outer wall of the second leg 17, a fixing block 5 is fixed to the outer wall of the second leg 17, a first elastic telescopic rod 7 is fixed to the outer wall of the fixing block 5, a second roller 8 is provided at the telescopic end of the first elastic telescopic rod 7, a handrail 16 is fixed to the top outer wall of the first leg 1 and the second leg 17, and a cross brace 13 is fixed to one outer wall of the handrail 16.

[0027] When standing, the user can hold onto the handrail 16 for support. When walking forward, the user can hold onto the handrail 16 and slightly lift the frame consisting of the first leg 1 and the second leg 17, allowing the first roller 6 at the bottom of the second leg 17 to contact the ground independently, while simultaneously lifting the bottom of the first leg 1 off the ground. At this point, the user can walk forward while holding onto the handrail 16. If the user loses their balance and falls backward, the bottom of the first leg 1 will quickly touch the ground, thus quickly supporting the user who is unbalanced. When the user leans forward, the second roller 8, located on one side of the second leg 17 and supported by the first elastic telescopic rod 7, will also quickly touch the ground, thus supporting the second leg 17 as a whole and preventing the walker from tipping forward, thereby improving the safety of using the walker.

[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a rotating shaft 11 is fixed to the outer wall of the second leg 17, a connecting block 10 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 11, and a metal plate 14 is fixed to the outer wall of the connecting block 10.

[0029] Elastic pads 12 are fixed to the outer walls of both sides of the metal plate 14.

[0030] The bottom outer wall of the fixing rod 2 is fixed with a second magnetic baffle 19; the user can flip the metal plate 14 down to the top of the second magnetic baffle 19, and the second magnetic baffle 19 supports the metal plate 14. At this time, the user can sit on the lowered metal plate 14 to rest.

[0031] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a second elastic telescopic rod 18 is fixed to one side of the outer wall of the second leg 17, and a first magnetic baffle 9 is fixed to the telescopic end of the second elastic telescopic rod 18. The user can lift the metal plate 14 upwards, so that the outer wall of the metal plate 14 abuts against the side of the first magnetic baffle 9. At this time, the first magnetic baffle 9 will attract the metal plate 14 with its own magnetic force, so that the metal plate 14 no longer blocks the space between the first leg 1, the fixed rod 2 and the second leg 17. At this time, the user can continue to use the walking aid to assist walking.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, a friction pad 15 is fixed to the top outer wall of the handrail 16; the friction pad 15 can increase the friction between the handrail 16 and the user's palm.

[0033] like Figure 1-4As shown, a friction head 4 is fixed to the bottom outer wall of the first leg 1, and an elastic protective plate 20 is fixed to one side outer wall of the metal plate 14. The friction head 4 can increase the friction between the bottom outer wall of the first leg 1 and the ground. After the user flips the metal plate 14 upward, the elastic protective plate 20 located at the bottom of the metal plate 14 will cover the pivot 11 and the connecting block 10, thereby making the side of the metal plate 14 facing the user smooth. At the same time, the elastic protective plate 20 will buffer the user's leg and the pivot 11 when walking.

[0034] Working principle: When standing, the user can hold onto the handrail 16 for support. When walking forward, the user can hold onto the handrail 16 and slightly lift the frame consisting of the first leg 1 and the second leg 17, allowing the first roller 6 at the bottom of the second leg 17 to contact the ground independently, while simultaneously lifting the bottom of the first leg 1 off the ground. At this point, the user can walk forward while holding onto the handrail 16. If the user loses their balance and falls backward, the bottom of the first leg 1 will quickly touch the ground, thus quickly supporting the user who is unbalanced. When the user leans forward, the second roller 8, located on one side of the second leg 17 and supported by the first elastic telescopic rod 7, will also quickly touch the ground, thus supporting the second leg 17 as a whole and preventing the walker from tipping forward.

[0035] The user can flip the metal plate 14 down to the top of the second magnetic baffle 19, and the second magnetic baffle 19 will support the metal plate 14. At this time, the user can sit on the lowered metal plate 14 to rest.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] A fall prevention walking aid for elderly care, such as Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment makes the following improvements based on embodiment 1: multiple hooks 3 are fixed to the outer wall of the fixing rod 2; users can hang their personal items on the hooks 3.

[0038] Working principle: Users can hang their personal items on hook 3.
