Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of walking sticks, and more particularly to a fall prevention walking stick for elderly patients. Background Technology

[0002] Existing multi-legged canes have multiple points of contact with the ground, providing a large support area and more dispersed force. They are more stable on uneven or slippery surfaces or when standing still, making them suitable for elderly people with poor balance, lower limb weakness, or those in rehabilitation. Single-legged canes, on the other hand, are lighter when moving, and there are no extra points of support to hinder turning or taking steps. They are suitable for walking quickly on flat surfaces and have fewer restrictions on the user's movements. However, multi-legged canes and single-legged canes cannot be freely switched when facing different environments and different physical conditions of the elderly, resulting in poor flexibility of use. Frequent changes in cane selection based on the scenario increase the burden of carrying two canes. This leads to the need to repurchase canes when the elderly are in different rehabilitation stages or have different needs, resulting in economic waste. Therefore, a fall prevention cane for elderly patients is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0003] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A fall prevention cane for elderly patients includes: a lower bar; A support mechanism located below the adjustment mechanism; The support mechanism includes a support block. The bottom end of the lower rod is threaded to the upper screw hole of the support block. Several legs are detachably connected inside the support block. Several insertion holes are opened through the inner wall of the support block. Several limiting holes are opened on the inner wall of the legs. Pins are slidably connected inside the insertion holes. Elastic elements are sleeved on the outside of the pins. Several pins are slidably connected inside the limiting holes.

[0004] The above-mentioned technical solution features detachable and easy-to-install outriggers. The use of pins and elastic components makes outrigger installation convenient, prevents loosening, and improves support stability. This makes it easier to switch between multi-leg and single-leg configurations, adapting to the balance needs of elderly patients in different environments and reducing the risk of falls.

[0005] As a further description of the above technical solution: The inner wall of the support block has several insertion cavities. The support leg is located inside the insertion cavity. Pull rings are provided above several pins. Limiting plates are provided on the outside of the pins and above the insertion cavity. The upper and lower ends of the elastic element are connected between the limiting plates.

[0006] The above technical solution makes it easy for the elderly to operate the pin with the pull ring, and the limiting piece fixes the position of the elastic element, making the disassembly and assembly of the outriggers easier and more convenient to operate, adapting to the physical condition of the elderly and improving the ease of use.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution: The support block and the support leg both have mounting holes at their bottom centers, and the mounting holes are internally threaded with support heads.

[0008] The above technical solution features a threaded connection for the support head, allowing for quick replacement after wear, maintaining good grip on the ground, and adapting to various road surfaces such as paving stones and cement, thus enhancing safety during use.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: A gripping mechanism is provided above the adjustment mechanism. The gripping mechanism includes a handle, and the handle is internally threaded with a cross bolt.

[0010] The above technical solution uses a cross bolt to reinforce the handle connection, preventing loosening. The handle conforms to the curvature of the hand, reducing hand pressure during prolonged use and improving grip comfort.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: A top rod is provided below the handle, and the cross bolt is threaded into the handle and the top rod.

[0012] The above technical solution uses a cross bolt that runs through the handle and the upper rod to strengthen the connection, prevent the handle from falling off during use, ensure the overall structural stability, and give elderly people peace of mind when using it.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution: Several middle rods are provided between the upper rod and the lower rod. A splicing hole is opened inside the upper part of the middle rod. The bottom of the upper rod is threaded to the inside of the splicing hole. The bottom of the upper rod has threads.

[0014] The above technical solution connects the middle rod to the upper rod through splicing holes, allowing for adjustments to the number of middle rods and length, adapting to elderly people of different heights, meeting personalized usage needs, and enhancing the applicability of the device.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution: The bottom of the upper rod is threaded into the inside of the splicing hole, and the bottom of the middle rod is threaded into the inside of the lower rod.

[0016] The above technical solution features a threaded connection between the middle rod and the lower rod, which is convenient to assemble and disassemble and has a firm connection. It is easy to disassemble and carry while ensuring support strength, stable load-bearing capacity, and improved reliability.

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution: The upper rod, the middle rod, and the lower rod are arranged on the same vertical plane, and several of the middle rods are of the same length.

[0018] The above technical solution ensures that all poles are coplanar and the central pole is of equal length, thus ensuring uniform force distribution, preventing tilting and swaying, enhancing overall support stability, reducing the risk of imbalance during use, and improving the safety factor.

[0019] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. In this utility model, by simultaneously pulling several pins upward, the elastic element extends upward, causing the pins to slide upward from the inside of the limiting hole, releasing the restriction on the support leg and allowing the support leg to be removed from the inside of the support block. Then, the pins are released, and as the elastic element returns to its original deformation, the pins move downward and insert into the insertion hole at the bottom of the support block. When all the support legs are removed, the support block changes from its original multi-legged form to a single-legged form. This structure achieves the effect of converting the device from a multi-legged to a single-legged form, solving the problem in the prior art where multi-legged and single-legged canes cannot be freely converted, resulting in poor flexibility of use. Frequent changes are required depending on the scenario, increasing the burden of carrying two types of canes and causing economic waste for the elderly when they are at different rehabilitation stages or have changing needs.

[0020] 2. In this utility model, by utilizing the threaded characteristics of the bottom of the upper rod to connect with the splicing hole above the middle rod, and by assembling and disassembling several middle rods between the upper and lower rods, this structure enables the device to be freely disassembled and the middle rods of different lengths to be replaced. This solves the problem in the prior art where the length of the cane is fixed and cannot be changed at will, resulting in the cane length not matching the height of the elderly.
