[0009] In one optional embodiment, a plurality of through-hole photovoltaic fixing holes are provided between the photovoltaic fixing groove and the first installation space, and fixing bolts pass through the photovoltaic fixing holes and cooperate with the connecting holes opened on the flexible photovoltaic panel to fix the flexible photovoltaic panel. Beneficial effects: The flexible photovoltaic panel is fixed at the root by mechanical bolting, which is firm and reliable and can withstand the stress of repeated winding and unfolding, preventing it from loosening during use and ensuring the stability of the core power generation unit. In addition, this connection method is easy to install and remove, reducing the difficulty of installation and removal and reducing maintenance costs.

[0010] In one optional embodiment, the first installation space is further provided with an energy storage module and a piston power generation module that are electrically connected to the control circuit board; Beneficial effects: By centrally arranging the power generation and energy storage modules and connecting them to the control circuit nearby, the internal space layout is optimized, the energy transmission path is shortened, line losses are reduced, and the overall energy management efficiency is improved.

[0011] In one optional implementation, a positioning module and a communication module are integrated on the control circuit board.

[0012] Beneficial effects: Integrating positioning functions, such as GPS, and communication functions, such as Bluetooth or satellite modules, enables precise navigation, motion tracking, team communication, and even emergency rescue, greatly enhancing the safety and technological experience of outdoor activities.

[0014] Beneficial effects: The telescopic support rod provides a rigid frame for the unfolded flexible photovoltaic panel, enabling it to remain flat, effectively resist wind force, and maximize the light-receiving area, thereby ensuring stable power generation efficiency. Its retractability makes it easy to store, and the slot design prevents the telescopic support rod from being lost when needed. It also provides a reliable storage location for the telescopic support rod when not in use. Furthermore, since the slot can only be opened after the flexible photovoltaic panel is unfolded, it also prevents the telescopic support rod from detaching from the slot when not in use.

[0015] In one optional embodiment, the column portion includes a winding section for winding a flexible photovoltaic panel and a fixing section disposed on both sides of the winding section, with a limiting step provided between the fixing section and the winding section. The sleeve is movable axially between a limited position and an open position; In the open position, the sleeve is fitted onto the outside of the fixed section; In the limiting position, at least a portion of the sleeve is fitted over the outside of the winding section, and the flexible photovoltaic panel in the winding state is confined between the sleeve and the winding section.

[0016] Beneficial effects: The sleeve can limit and protect the wound flexible photovoltaic panel.

[0018] Beneficial effects: The axial positioning of the sleeve is achieved through the cooperation of the limiting protrusion and the limiting groove, allowing the sleeve to move axially only between the open position and the limited position. The cooperation of the limiting block and the notch provides guidance for the axial movement of the sleeve, while simultaneously limiting the sleeve in the circumferential direction. At the first limiting slot, the sleeve can rotate a certain angle so that the limiting protrusion engages with the first limiting slot, thus axially limiting the sleeve to the open position. At the second limiting slot, the sleeve can also rotate a certain angle so that the limiting protrusion engages with the second limiting slot, thus axially limiting the sleeve to the limited position.

[0019] It provides clear and accurate "open" and "closed" positions for the sleeve, with a clear operating feel, which can effectively prevent the photovoltaic panel from becoming loose due to accidental movement of the sleeve during walking or carrying, making it safe and reliable.

[0020] In one optional embodiment, the column portion further defines a cylindrical second mounting space with a second opening at the bottom, the axial direction of the second mounting space being parallel to the axial direction of the column portion; The cane fixing part is located at the second opening, and the top of the cane can extend into the second installation space through the second opening.

[0021] Beneficial effects: The second installation space provides a deeper insertion depth for the cane, enhancing the connection strength and concentricity between the handle and the cane, making force transmission more direct, the overall structure more stable, and improving the sense of security and reliability during use.

[0022] In one optional embodiment, the cane fixing part includes: A clamp for holding the cane; the clamp has a tapered mating surface that gradually thickens from bottom to top. The clamp fixing cylinder is fixed at the second opening and is linked with the clamp. The threaded drive component is axially movable in conjunction with the clamp fixing cylinder, and its outer side is provided with external threads; A rotary adjuster is rotatably connected to a clamp fixing cylinder, and its inner side is provided with an internal thread that mates with an external thread; The rotary adjuster can drive the threaded transmission component to move axially, and control the clamping or loosening of the fixture by pushing or disengaging from the tapered mating surface.

[0023] Beneficial effects: The clamping mechanism of the cane fixing part uses the principles of threaded transmission and conical surface transmission to convert the rotational motion at the rotary adjuster into the linear motion of the threaded transmission component, and then into the radial clamping force of the clamp, realizing fast, powerful and stable locking of canes of different diameters. It has strong versatility, is easy to operate and has a reliable locking effect.

[0024] In one optional embodiment, the handle portion includes: The handle has multiple pressure-generating plates arranged side by side along its extension direction inside, with the pressure-receiving surface of the pressure-generating plates facing upwards. The cane head integrates a USB power interface, a light, and an arc generator. The support column connects the handle and the cane head, and its top integrates a control panel, microphone, and attitude sensor. The support column defines a wire groove, which is connected to the internal space of the column body, the handle, and the cane head.

[0025] Beneficial effects: The handle integrates a wealth of functional modules: pressure power generation enables energy recovery during walking; lighting, USB power supply, and an arc generator meet various outdoor needs; the control panel, microphone, and posture sensor enable intelligent interaction and monitoring.

[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0034] Hiking poles are commonly used auxiliary equipment in outdoor activities such as hiking and mountaineering, providing support, maintaining balance, and reducing the burden on the knees. With the development of technology, outdoor enthusiasts are increasingly reliant on electronic devices such as GPS navigators, mobile phones, and lighting equipment, and the battery life of these devices is particularly prominent in the wild.

[0035] Existing hiking poles integrate small solar panels, but the power generation is insufficient to meet the demand. Furthermore, since they only have a single solar charging function, the power generation function is limited by the weather, and the exposed solar panels are easily damaged. In addition, hiking poles are large in size, making them difficult to store and transport.

[0036] To address this, this application designs a trekking pole handle 1000 that integrates multiple power modules, various power generation methods, and an energy storage module 301, achieving functional integration and energy self-sufficiency. Due to the integration of multiple power generation methods and the presence of the energy storage module 301, power supply can be guaranteed even in adverse weather conditions. The rollable design of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 and the limiting and protection provided by the sleeve 306 allow for the integration of a larger area of ​​photovoltaic panels. While ensuring a sufficient power supply to the power modules, the trekking pole handle 1000 also maintains portability and durability. The trekking pole handle 1000 can be secured to different sized pole bodies 5 via the pole body fixing part 4, making the trekking pole handle 1000 more portable and versatile.

[0037] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 19 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0038] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a trekking pole handle 1000 is provided, comprising a handle portion 1, a column portion 3, and a pole fixing portion 4.

[0039] The handle 1 integrates multiple power modules, realizing the integration of various power functions, so that the trekking pole handle 1000 has more functions and improves the user experience.

[0040] The column part 3 is connected to the handle part 1, and integrates an energy storage module 301 and a piston power generation module 302. The piston power generation module 302 can work together with the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 to generate electricity, achieving energy self-sufficiency for the trekking pole handle 1000. Due to the piston power generation module 302, the trekking pole handle 1000 still has self-generating power in poor weather conditions or at night, preventing the power supply from failing in low light conditions. The energy storage module 301 can store electrical energy when there is sufficient sunlight and power generation, or when connected to an external power source, ensuring that the power supply module of the trekking pole handle 1000 can operate for extended periods under extreme conditions.

[0041] The pole body fixing part 4 is located at the bottom of the column body part 3 and is used to adjustably fix and connect to pole bodies 5 of different thicknesses. The trekking pole handle 1000 can fix different specifications of pole bodies 5 through the pole body fixing part 4, making the trekking pole handle 1000 more portable and versatile.

[0042] A flexible photovoltaic panel 303 is provided on the outside of the column part 3. A photovoltaic fixing groove 305 with a first opening 304 and extending into the column part 3 in the circumferential direction of the column part 3 is formed on the column part 3. One end of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 in the winding direction is fixed in the photovoltaic fixing groove 305. Sleeves 306 that are movable in the axial direction are provided at both ends of the column part 3. The flexible photovoltaic panel 303 includes an unfolded state and a wound state. In the wound state, the sleeves 306 are sleeved on the outside of the wound flexible photovoltaic panel 303.

[0043] When unfolded, the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 provides an effective power generation area several times larger than the handle's surface area, resulting in strong power generation capacity and rapid energy storage, ensuring the long-term use of the power module. When rolled up, the trekking pole handle 1000 is indistinguishable from a regular trekking pole handle 1000; the design of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 does not affect the use, storage, or carrying of the trekking pole handle 1000. The sleeve 306 effectively prevents scratches, bumps, and dust accumulation on the photovoltaic panel during hiking, and also prevents the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 from unfolding, thus avoiding any impact on the use, storage, or carrying of the trekking pole handle 1000.

[0044] The flexible photovoltaic panel 303 is firmly installed at its base in the internal photovoltaic fixing groove 305, which avoids tearing and falling off of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 caused by repeated loading and unloading.

[0045] Therefore, the trekking pole handle 1000 integrates multiple power generation methods with the energy storage module 301, achieving energy self-sufficiency. The rollable design of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 and the protective structure of the sleeve 306 ensure the portability and durability of the trekking pole handle 1000 while providing sufficient power supply to electrical equipment. The trekking pole handle 1000 can fix different specifications of pole bodies 5 through the pole body fixing part 4, making the trekking pole handle 1000 more portable and versatile.

[0046] like Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the column portion 3 defines a first installation space 307, and the control circuit board 3071 is disposed in the first installation space 307; wherein, a circuit board mounting space 3072 is provided through between the photovoltaic fixing groove 305 and the first installation space 307, the circuit board mounting space 3072 is correspondingly disposed with the photovoltaic power supply interface 3031 of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303, and the control circuit board 3071 is electrically connected to the photovoltaic power supply interface 3031.

[0047] A first mounting space 307 is created inside the column portion 3 to mount and protect the control circuit board 3071. A standardized circuit board mounting space 3072 is pre-set between the photovoltaic mounting groove 305 and the first mounting space 307. This channel forms a protected internal passage, allowing the control circuit board 3071 to pass through the housing, achieving a concealed connection from the power generation unit to the control unit.

[0048] The fragile and critical control circuit board 3071 and all electrical connection points are internally integrated, completely isolating them from the external environment and physical scratches and snagging during use. There are no redundant external cables, resulting in a clean, streamlined product appearance that conforms to modern industrial design aesthetics, enhancing product quality and user experience. This fundamentally eliminates short circuits and open circuits caused by exposed cables. It also avoids messy internal cabling, facilitating heat dissipation and maintenance. The circuit board mounting space 3072 provides a clear wiring path for production, simplifying the assembly process. It also allows for quick location and repair of circuit connections during subsequent maintenance.

[0049] Thus, through the design of the circuit board mounting space 3072, the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 of the external power generation unit is safely connected to the internal control circuit board 3071 in the shortest path, the simplest and most reliable way. This achieves the internalization and concealment of the electrical connection, effectively protecting the control circuit board 3071 and avoiding the risk of it being hooked, worn or water-damaged due to exposure. This significantly improves the reliability and service life of the product.

[0050] like Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, a plurality of through-hole photovoltaic fixing holes 3073 are provided between the photovoltaic fixing groove 305 and the first installation space 307. The fixing bolt 30731 passes through the photovoltaic fixing hole 3073 and cooperates with the connection hole 3033 opened on the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 to fix the flexible photovoltaic panel 303. Compared to traditional adhesive or simple snap-fit ​​connections, this application employs a rigid mechanical connector, the fixing bolt 30731. The fixing bolt 30731 passes through the photovoltaic fixing hole 3073 on the column structure and directly engages with the pre-installed connection hole 3033 at the base of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303, forming a robust mechanical locking structure that resists pull-out.

[0051] By setting multiple through-hole photovoltaic fixing holes 3073, the fixing force at the base of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 is distributed to multiple points. This effectively avoids material fatigue, tearing, or connection failure caused by stress concentration at a single fixing point during repeated winding and unfolding.

[0052] The flexible photovoltaic panel 303 is secured using fixing bolts 30731, offering extremely high connection reliability and durability. Multi-point mechanical anchoring effectively withstands the alternating stress generated during repeated winding and unwinding cycles of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303, fundamentally preventing functional failure due to loosening or detachment at the base. During strenuous activities such as hiking and mountaineering, the mechanical anchoring method is more resistant to continuous vibration and accidental impacts than adhesive methods, ensuring the connection remains stable even in harsh environments.

[0053] During production and maintenance, the engagement of the fixing bolt 30731 with the fixing hole provides clear guidance for installation, enabling quick and accurate positioning of the photovoltaic panel. Furthermore, the engagement of the fixing bolt 30731 with the photovoltaic fixing hole 3073 and the connecting hole 3033 achieves non-destructive fixing. When the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 experiences performance degradation due to long-term use or accidental damage, the fixing bolt 30731 can be easily removed for replacement, greatly reducing the difficulty and cost of subsequent maintenance.

[0054] Therefore, by fixing the base of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 with mechanical bolts, the connection is firm and reliable, and can withstand the stress of repeated winding and unfolding, preventing it from loosening during use and ensuring the stability of the core power generation unit. In addition, this connection method is easy to install and remove, reducing the difficulty of installation and removal and reducing maintenance costs.

[0055] like Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the first installation space 307 is further provided with an energy storage module 301 and a piston power generation module 302 that are electrically connected to the control circuit board 3071; The three core units—energy storage module 301, piston power generation module 302, and control circuit board 3071—which are functionally closely related and form a closed loop in energy flow, are all housed within the unified space of the first installation space 307. This layout allows the electrical energy generated by the piston power generation module 302 to be transmitted to the control circuit board 3071 via the shortest physical path for voltage regulation, rectification, and other processing, before being stored in the nearby energy storage module 301. Similarly, when the energy storage module 301 discharges to electrical equipment, the energy is also distributed and managed via the nearest control circuit board 3071.

[0056] This highly integrated layout leads to improved system performance. By significantly shortening the current transmission path between modules, energy loss on the lines is effectively reduced, enabling mechanical and solar energy to be captured and stored more efficiently, thus reducing energy loss.

[0057] The close arrangement of each unit facilitates the control circuit board 3071 to perform real-time, accurate monitoring and intelligent management of the power generation and battery status, thereby improving the stability and response speed of the entire system.

[0058] The 1000 trekking pole handle features a compact internal layout, avoiding the problems of long, messy cables and wasted space caused by scattered functional modules, resulting in a more compact and small product structure. Furthermore, concentrating the main heavy-duty modules in one area contributes to the overall stability of the product's center of gravity and structural strength.

[0059] When the energy system needs maintenance or upgrades, operations can be performed only on the first installation space 307, simplifying the maintenance process.

[0060] like Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment, a positioning module 30711 and a communication module 30712 are integrated on the control circuit board 3071.

[0061] The integrated positioning module 30711 enables trekking poles to record their travel trajectory in real time, provide precise coordinate information, and link with a mobile app or map to achieve reliable route navigation and return-to-home functionality. The integrated communication module 30712, especially its satellite communication capability, allows for the one-click transmission of distress signals containing precise coordinates in wilderness areas without terrestrial network signals, greatly enhancing safety during outdoor activities. Integrating these two modules into the control circuit board 3071 eliminates the need for physical interfaces and cables for all external modules, fundamentally preventing malfunctions caused by interface oxidation, loosening, water ingress, and cable wear, ensuring stable operation of the positioning and communication functions even in harsh environments. The highly integrated control circuit board 3071 also saves internal space.

[0062] like Figure 6As shown, in one embodiment, the surface of the column portion 3 is provided with an axially extending slot 308, and a telescopic support rod 3081 is detachably embedded in the slot 308. In the unfolded state, the telescopic support rod 3081 is in an extended state and passes through a plurality of perforations 3034 provided on the back side of the photovoltaic surface 3032 of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303.

[0063] The telescopic support rod 3081 is a rigid component independent of the photovoltaic panel. In its unfolded state, by inserting it through multiple perforations 3034, it forms a "composite structure" with the flexible photovoltaic panel 303, in which the support rod acts as a skeleton to bear the main mechanical load, and the photovoltaic panel is attached to it to realize the power generation function.

[0064] The support rod provides the necessary rigid support for the flexible photovoltaic panel, allowing it to maintain maximum flatness after unfolding. This enables it to effectively receive sunlight from different angles and avoids shading and efficiency loss caused by curling or wrinkling. Its rigid structure effectively resists wind force, preventing the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 from violently shaking or slapping in the wind. This not only protects the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 itself but also ensures that it can still generate electricity stably in windy weather.

[0065] The slot 308 is a dedicated storage space for the support rod when it is folded up, solving the problem of small accessories being easily lost during outdoor activities. Users do not need to search for or carry the support rod separately, nor do they need to worry about forgetting or losing it. The retracted support rod is embedded in the slot 308, flush with the surface of the column body 3, without increasing the product's size or carrying burden.

[0066] This device has no complex electronic or mechanical components and relies solely on its physical structure to perform its functions, thus possessing extremely high reliability and durability.

[0067] In summary, the telescopic support rod 3081 provides a rigid frame for the unfolded flexible photovoltaic panel 303, enabling it to remain flat, effectively resist wind force, and maximize the light-receiving area, thereby ensuring stable power generation efficiency. Its retractability makes it easy to store. The slot 308 prevents the telescopic support rod 3081 from being difficult to find when in use, and provides a reliable storage location for the telescopic support rod 3081 when not in use. Furthermore, since the slot 308 can only be opened after the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 is unfolded, it also prevents the telescopic support rod 3081 from detaching from the slot 308 when not in use.

[0068] like Figures 1-5 As shown, in one embodiment, the column portion 3 includes a winding section 309 for winding a flexible photovoltaic panel 303 and a fixing section 310 disposed on both sides of the winding section 309, and a limiting step 3101 is provided between the fixing section 310 and the winding section 309. The sleeve 306 is movable axially between a limited position and an open position. In the open position, the sleeve 306 is fitted on the outside of the fixed section 310. In the limited position, at least a portion of the sleeve 306 is fitted on the outside of the winding section 309, and the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 in the winding state is restricted between the sleeve 306 and the winding section 309.

[0069] The winding section 309 is provided with a photovoltaic fixing groove 305, which is specifically used for the installation and orderly winding of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303. The fixing section 310 has a slightly larger diameter, and its outer wall is used to guide and support the movement of the sleeve 306. The end forms a limiting step 3101 to axially limit the winding flexible photovoltaic panel 303.

[0070] The sleeve 306 achieves "exposure" and "shading" of the winding section 309 and the flexible photovoltaic panel 303 on it by sliding linearly along the axial direction. This provides a protection and limiting method with short stroke, direct operation, and reliable structure.

[0071] In the limiting position, the sleeve 306 and the winding section 309 together form a protective space, enclosing the wound photovoltaic panel and preventing physical scratches, thus improving the durability of the flexible photovoltaic panel 303. In the open position, the sleeve 306 is fully retracted to the fixed section 310, providing the necessary space for the smooth unfolding and rewinding of the photovoltaic panel.

[0072] Therefore, the sleeve 306 can limit and protect the wound flexible photovoltaic panel 303. Through the axial movement of the sleeve 306, the two states of limiting and protecting the photovoltaic panel and full exposure can be quickly and reliably switched, providing a smooth user experience and good protection.

[0073] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the inner wall of the sleeve 306 is provided with an annular limiting protrusion 3061 extending circumferentially and having a notch 30610; the outer wall of the fixed section 310 is provided with a limiting groove 3102, the limiting protrusion 3061 cooperates with the limiting groove 3102 and can move axially within the limiting groove 3102; a limiting block 31021 is provided within the limiting groove 3102, the limiting block 31021 cooperates with the notch 30610; a first limiting slot 310211 is provided on one axial side of the limiting block 31021 for limiting the sleeve 306 in the open position; a second limiting slot 310212 is provided on the other axial side of the limiting block 31021 for limiting the sleeve 306 in the limiting position.

[0074] The axial positioning of the sleeve 306 is achieved by the engagement of the limiting protrusion 3061 and the limiting groove 3102, allowing the sleeve 306 to move axially only between the open position and the limited position. The engagement of the limiting block 31021 and the notch 30610 provides guidance for the axial movement of the sleeve 306, while also limiting the sleeve 306 in the circumferential direction. At the first limiting latch 310211, the sleeve 306 can rotate a certain angle so that the limiting protrusion 3061 engages with the first limiting latch 310211, thereby limiting the sleeve 306 axially in the open position. At the second limiting latch 310212, the sleeve 306 can also rotate a certain angle so that the limiting protrusion 3061 engages with the second limiting latch 310212, thereby limiting the sleeve 306 axially in the limited position.

[0075] The first limiting slot 310211 and the second limiting slot 310212 provide clear and accurate "open" and "closed" positions for the sleeve 306, with a clear operating feel. This effectively prevents the photovoltaic panel from becoming loose due to accidental movement of the sleeve 306 during walking or carrying, ensuring safety and reliability.

[0076] like Figure 1 , Figure 8 , Figure 14 , Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, in one embodiment, the column portion 3 further defines a cylindrical second mounting space 312 with a second opening 3121 at the bottom. The axial direction of the second mounting space 312 is parallel to the axial direction of the column portion 3. The cane fixing portion 4 is provided at the second opening 3121, and the top end of the cane 5 can extend into the second mounting space 312 through the second opening 3121. The second mounting space 312 provides a deeper insertion depth for the cane, enhances the connection strength and concentricity between the handle and the cane, makes the force transmission more direct, the overall structure more stable, and improves the sense of security and reliability during use.

[0077] like Figures 14-16 As shown, in one embodiment, the cane fixing part 4 includes: a clamp 401, a clamp fixing cylinder 402, a threaded transmission component 403, and a rotation adjuster 404.

[0078] The clamp 401 is used to hold the cane body 5. The clamp 401 has a tapered mating surface 4011 that gradually thickens from bottom to top. The clamp fixing cylinder 402 is fixed at the second opening 3121 and is linked with the clamp 401. The threaded transmission component 403 is axially movable and is mated with the clamp fixing cylinder 402. It has an external thread on its outer side. The rotation adjuster 404 is rotatably connected to the clamp fixing cylinder 402. It has an internal thread that mates with the external thread on its inner side.

[0079] Rotating the rotary adjuster 404 can drive the threaded transmission component 403 to move axially, and by pushing or disengaging from the tapered mating surface 4011, it controls the clamping or loosening of the clamp 401.

[0080] By engaging the internal thread on the inside of the rotary adjuster 404 with the external thread on the outside of the threaded transmission component 403, the user-applied, easily operable rotational force is precisely converted into the axial linear motion of the threaded transmission component 403.

[0081] The threaded transmission component 403, which performs linear motion, acts at its tip on the tapered mating surface 4011 of the clamp 401. According to the principle of inclined planes, a small axial displacement can be amplified into a significant radial displacement of the clamp 401. When the transmission component pushes the tapered surface upward, the clamp 401 is forced to radially contract to clamp the rod 5, and conversely, it radially expands to release the rod 5.

[0082] Through continuous rotation adjustment, stepless control of the clamping force can be achieved, thus enabling a secure fit for poles of different diameters, breaking the limitations on poles and expanding the applicability of the trekking pole handle 1000.

[0083] Threaded drives have a natural self-locking property, meaning that in a stationary state, the threaded pair will not loosen on its own without external force to rotate. This ensures that the clamping force will not decrease under vibration and impact, the connection is not easy to loosen, and the safety is guaranteed.

[0084] Users can quickly install and remove the cane body 5 by simply rotating the adjuster 404 without carrying any additional tools. The operation is simple and efficient.

[0085] The pole fixing part 4 is integrated into the second mounting space 312, with a compact structure and only the rotation adjuster 404 exposed on the outside, which improves the aesthetics of the trekking pole handle 1000.

[0086] In summary, the clamping mechanism of the cane fixing part 4 utilizes the principles of threaded transmission and conical surface transmission to convert the rotational motion at the rotary adjuster 404 into the linear motion of the threaded transmission component 403, and then into the radial clamping force of the clamp 401. This achieves rapid, powerful, and stable locking of canes 5 with different diameters, with strong versatility, simple operation, and reliable locking effect.

[0087] like Figures 6-7 As shown, in one embodiment, the handle portion 1 includes: a handle 101, a cane head 102, and a support post 103.

[0088] Multiple pressure-generating pads 1011 are arranged side-by-side along the extension direction inside the handle 101, with the pressure-receiving surface 10111 of the pressure-generating pads 10111 facing upwards. The cane head 102 integrates a USB power interface 1021, a light 1022, and an arc generator 1023. The support column 103 connects the handle 101 and the cane head 102, and its top integrates a control panel 1031, a microphone 1032, and an attitude sensor 1033. The support column 103 defines a wire groove 1034, which communicates with the internal space of the column body 3, the handle 101, and the cane head 102.

[0089] Therefore, based on human hand gripping habits and usage scenarios, the handle 1 is physically divided into three functionally distinct areas.

[0090] The handle 101 area serves as the primary gripping and force-bearing zone, integrating a pressure-generating device 1011 to convert gripping actions into effective energy. The top area of ​​the support column 103 serves as the visual and interaction center, integrating a control panel 1031, microphone 1032, and posture sensor 1033, responsible for information input, status display, and motion sensing. The front end of the cane head 102 serves as the functional output end, integrating USB power supply, lighting, and an arc generator 1023, providing actual energy output and survival assistance functions. The wiring channel 1034 within the support column 103 acts as the information and energy hub for the entire handle section 1, efficiently and systematically connecting all the dispersed functional modules to the main power supply and control system of the column section 3.

[0091] This highly integrated and clearly defined design elevates the handle section 1 from a simple grip into a smart, efficient integrated platform.

[0092] By placing the pressure-generating element 1011 inside the handle 101, the user unconsciously generates electricity during every supporting action, such as walking or leaning. This achieves all-weather, imperceptible energy recovery. The pressure-generating element 1011, along with the piston generator and the flexible photovoltaic panel 303, forms a perfect complementary energy source, jointly constructing a powerful energy self-sufficiency system.

[0093] Key outdoor functions such as lighting, emergency fire starting, and equipment charging are integrated into the easily accessible cane head 102, greatly improving convenience and emergency response speed. The control panel 1031 and microphone 1032 at the top facilitate operation and voice input; the addition of the posture sensor 1033 provides the hardware foundation for realizing intelligent safety functions such as fall detection and motion pattern recognition, further enhancing the product's intelligence and safety.

[0094] The 1034 cable tray design avoids tangled internal cables, making assembly more standardized and, more importantly, eliminating the risk of short circuits or open circuits caused by cable friction and pulling. This significantly improves the reliability of electrical connections and the overall lifespan of the product. All electronic components are securely encapsulated within the handle housing, protecting them from the impacts and harsh weather conditions of outdoor use.

[0095] like Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, a speaker 313 is also integrated at the top of the column portion 3. The speaker 313 increases the audio output and device expansion capabilities of the trekking pole handle 1000. The speaker 313 can be used to play voice navigation, alarms, or music, etc.

[0096] like Figures 17-19 As shown, in one embodiment, the column portion 3 is further provided with a series interface 62 on each of its two axial end faces, and the series interface 62 is provided with a foolproof structure to prevent misconnection. The series interface 62 provides the possibility for series charging between devices or connecting external accessories, while the foolproof structure effectively prevents short circuits or device damage caused by misconnection, thereby improving safety and user experience.

[0097] On both axial end faces of the column section 3, series interfaces 62 are respectively provided. This essentially brings the power interface of the internal power storage module 301 to the outside in a standardized and physically accessible form. Multiple identical trekking pole handles 1000 can be interconnected through the series interfaces 62 to achieve "mutual charging of trekking poles". When the power of one trekking pole is exhausted, it can be recharged by another trekking pole with sufficient power, which greatly improves the overall energy redundancy and safety of team trips.

[0098] This interface can provide emergency power to other low-power outdoor devices, or connect to dedicated extension accessories, such as the more powerful 1022 lighting lamp, turning the trekking pole into a true mobile power station.

[0099] In other embodiments, such as Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Figure 19 As shown, the column part 3 may be provided with a serial interface 62 connected to the spring winder 61, and multiple trekking pole handles 1000 are connected in series through the serial interface 62.

[0100] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined in this application.
