[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0026] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 6 The present invention provides a walking aid with night lighting function, comprising: a walking aid body 1, four foot pads 4 installed on the lower surface of the walking aid body 1, an adjustment device 2 provided on the arc surface of the walking aid body 1, and an auxiliary device 3 provided on the side of the foot pads 4 near the walking aid body 1.

[0028] In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figures 2 to 4The adjustment device 2 includes a fixing block 201, which is fixedly connected to the arc surface of the walker body 1. A connecting rod 202 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block 201. A light 203 is rotatably connected to the side of the connecting rod 202 away from the fixing block 201. A fixing frame 204 is fixedly connected to the side of the light 203. An adjustment block 205 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing frame 204. A rotating rod 206 rotatably passes through the inner wall of the adjustment block 205. The same adjustment rod 207 is rotatably connected to both ends of the arc surface of the rotating rod 206. A limit frame 208 is movably connected to the arc surface of the adjustment rod 207. A fixing rod 210 is fixedly connected to one side of the limit frame 208. The end of the fixing rod 210 away from the arc surface of the limit frame 208 is connected to the walker body 1. The fixed connection includes two guide rods 209 slidingly passing through one inner wall of the limiting frame 208. A common moving block 213 is fixedly connected to one end of the arc surface of the two guide rods 209. A pressing rod 211 is rotatably connected to the side of the moving block 213 away from the guide rods 209. The pressing rod 211 is threadedly connected to the other inner wall of the limiting frame 208. A turntable 212 is fixedly connected to the arc surface of the pressing rod 211 away from the moving block 213. The walker body 1 is an assistive device used to help with walking, typically for people with mobility impairments or requiring additional support, such as the elderly, patients undergoing rehabilitation, or people with movement disorders. However, most walker bodies 1 on the market do not have lighting functions, which leaves users in dimly lit environments. In dim lighting conditions, the user cannot clearly see the path ahead, increasing the risk of falls or collisions. This can be mitigated by adjusting device 2, which improves the user's safety when walking in low-light conditions using the walker body 1. Several anti-slip grooves 214 are evenly distributed on the arc surface of the turntable 212 away from the pressure rod 211. When the turntable 212 moves the pressure rod 211, the anti-slip grooves 214 increase the friction on the surface of the turntable 212, thus improving its stability during use. The moving block 213 is fixed on the side away from the pressure rod 211. A friction pad 215 is fixedly connected to the adjusting rod 207. The friction pad 215 has anti-slip textures on the side away from the pressing rod 211. When the moving block 213 contacts the adjusting rod 207, the friction pad 215 on the moving block 213 increases the friction on its surface, thereby improving the stability of the contact between the moving block 213 and the adjusting rod 207. A handle 216 is fixedly connected to one end of the curved surface of the adjusting rod 207. When the angle of the lighting lamp 203 needs to be adjusted using the adjusting rod 207, the handle 216 increases the surface dimensions of the adjusting rod 207. This, in turn, increases the speed at which the user can adjust the angle of the lighting lamp 203 using the adjusting rod 207.Guide rod 209 is made of titanium alloy. The titanium alloy material of guide rod 209 results in a harder surface that is less prone to deformation even after prolonged use, leading to better performance. In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The auxiliary device 3 includes two mounting plates 31, both of which are fixedly connected to one side of the foot pad 4. An adjustment hole 32 is provided on the side of each mounting plate 31. A telescopic rod 33 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjustment hole 32. One end of the arc-shaped surface of the telescopic rod 33 is fixedly connected to the walker body 1. A spring 34 is fitted onto the arc-shaped surface of the telescopic rod 33. Both ends of the spring 34 are fixedly connected to the telescopic rod 33 and the walker body 1, respectively. When the foot pad 4 is damaged after prolonged use, the auxiliary device 3 can be used to repair it. Damaged foot pads 4 can be quickly replaced. Through the auxiliary device 3, damaged foot pads 4 can be replaced, thereby improving the subsequent use effect of foot pads 4. A pressing block 35 is fixedly connected to one end of the arc surface of the telescopic rod 33. When the telescopic rod 33 is connected to the inner wall of the adjustment hole 32, the pressing block 35 installed on the telescopic rod 33 can quickly connect the telescopic rod 33 to the adjustment hole 32. The pressing block 35 can improve the efficiency of connecting the telescopic rod 33 to the adjustment hole 32. The working principle of the walking aid with nighttime lighting function provided by this utility model is as follows: Pressing the adjusting rod 207 up and down causes the adjusting block 205 to move. The adjusting block 205 rotates along the direction of the rotating rod 206, which in turn causes the fixed frame 204 to adjust its angle. The movement of the fixed frame 204 causes the lighting lamp 203 to move along the direction of the connecting rod 202. Thus, by pressing the adjusting rod 207, the lighting angle of the lighting lamp 203 can be adjusted. When in the appropriate position, the squeezing rod 211 can be rotated within the limiting frame 208 via the turntable 212. The movement of the squeezing rod 211 will cause the moving block 213 to slide within the limiting frame 208 along the direction of the guide rod 209. At this time, the moving block 213 can be brought into contact with the adjusting rod 207. The adjusting rod 207 can be fixed within the limiting frame 208 by the contact between the moving block 213 and the adjusting rod 207, thus completing the angle adjustment of the lighting lamp 203. The lighting lamp 203 can then be used to supplement the light in a dim environment.

[0029] Press the telescopic rod 33 towards the walking aid body 1. The movement of the telescopic rod 33 will cause the spring 34 to deform. At this time, the mounting plate 31 on the new foot pad 4 will come into contact with the telescopic rod 33. Press the telescopic rod 33 against the inside of the mounting plate 31. Then, press the foot pad 4 towards one side of the walking aid body 1 and align the position of the telescopic rod 33 with the adjustment hole 32. The spring 34 will return to its original position and cause the telescopic rod 33 to pop out from the adjustment hole 32. At this time, the new foot pad 4 can be fixed on the walking aid body 1 by connecting the telescopic rod 33 with the adjustment hole 32.

[0030] The circuits and controls involved in this utility model are all existing technologies, and will not be described in detail here.

[0031] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
