Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of walking aid technology, specifically to a walking aid that can be used for both carrying and supporting people. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing aging population and the rise in patients with chronic diseases and sports injuries, walking aids, as important tools for assisting movement, play an irreplaceable role in medical rehabilitation, home care, and daily travel. Traditional walking aids are mainly divided into two categories: push-type walking aids (such as wheelchairs and nursing carts) and self-propelled walking aids (such as four-legged canes and walking frames).
[0003] During the use of the walking aid, it can be pushed to carry objects and can also change its shape to carry people. When carrying people, the user sits on the seat cloth. Due to the differences in the body size of each user, the surface of the seat cloth, which is made of cloth, will tear after long-term use. Over time, this will reduce the lifespan of the seat cloth and may cause it to collapse, thereby reducing the safety of the user. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dual-purpose walking aid for both carrying and using people, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a dual-purpose walking aid for both carrying and pushing, including a walking aid, the walking aid including a frame, a support mechanism on one side of the frame, and a folding mechanism on one side of the support mechanism;
[0006] The support mechanism includes two first fixed seats fixedly connected to both ends of the vehicle frame. A first connecting rod is rotatably connected between each pair of opposite first fixed seats. A second fixed seat is rotatably connected to both sides of the other end of each first connecting rod. A top plate is fixedly connected to the top of each pair of adjacent second fixed seats. A support plate is provided on the top of each top plate. Slot holes are opened on both sides of the top of each support plate. A sliding rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of each slot hole. A slider is slidably connected to the outer wall of each sliding rod, and the bottom of the slider is fixedly connected to the top of the top plate.
[0007] In one example, each slider has a spring fitted on its outer wall, and one end of the spring is fixedly connected to one side of the slider.
[0008] In one example, the two support plates are rotatably connected by a hinge, and memory foam is fixedly connected to the top of both support plates.
[0009] In one example, the folding mechanism includes a second connecting rod fixedly connected to one side of two adjacent first fixed seats, a cross rod rotatably connected to one side of the two second connecting rods, and a support rod rotatably connected to the other end of the cross rod.
[0010] In one example, a backrest fabric is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the frame, and a sponge pad is fixedly connected to the middle of one side of the backrest fabric.
[0011] In one example, the top of the support rod is fixedly connected to the seat fabric, and the seat fabric is located on top of the memory foam.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] A first fixed seat is provided at the bottom of the frame. A first connecting rod is rotatably connected to one side of the first fixed seat. A second fixed seat and a top plate are respectively provided at the other end of the first connecting rod. A support plate is provided on the top of the top plate. The support plate is located at the bottom of the seat fabric. Its function is that when the walker is set to the passenger mode, the user will sit on the seat fabric. The top plate located at the bottom of the seat fabric can support the user, thereby reducing the tensile strength of the seat fabric surface and improving the service life of the seat fabric. At the same time, there is a strip hole on the top of the support plate. The slider and spring are located inside the strip hole. When the support plate is in the unfolded state, the spring inside the strip hole is in a tensioned state, which makes the support plate more stable when unfolded, improving the stability during use. The bottom of the slider is connected to the top of the top plate. Since the walker is foldable, the support plate can also be folded when in use, so as not to affect the storage of the walker.
[0014] The hinge located between the two support plates connects them and allows them to be folded. The memory foam on top of the support plates makes the ride more comfortable for the user.
[0015] When the walker needs to be transported, the seat fabric can be pulled upwards, which allows the frame to be moved inwards by the action of the crossbars, pulling the second connecting rods and support rods on both sides. This allows the frame to be folded, making it easier to transport the walker. Attached Figure Description
