Abstract
A mobility aid, such as a cane, trek pole, or walking stick is disclosed in which the handle has an advantageous angular geometry. Also disclosed is a soft grip surface, such as a gel pad, for the handle of a mobility aid. The soft grip surface may be integral with the handle of the mobility aid or may be sold as a separate part for retrofitting existing mobility aids. The mobility aid may be provided with a variety of individualized handles for accommodating a users' desire for specialized comfort and personal stability needs.
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to handles for canes, walkers, trek poles, walking sticks, and other mobility aids, and more particularly, relates to handles utilizing specialized shapes and materials.
- 2. Discussion of the Related Art
- It is well understood that the present population distribution includes a disproportionately large number of people in middle age and/or approaching old age. It is also understood that this particular group of people understands the value of design changes that increase ergonomic functioning. In addition, the statistics indicate that this demographic has disposable income in quantities heretofore unknown, which has allowed many of its members to become accustomed to choices and amenities, even in medical equipment.
- As a result, when this population is faced with the disabilities that sometimes come with age, if its members have a choice between, for example, a standard cane such as those typically available at medical supply houses, and a cane having an updated design featuring ergonomic and other comfort features, many are more likely to choose the updated design, even if it is notably more expensive than a standard cane.
- Mobility aids that offer and incorporate various comfort features are available, but to date, these have failed to provide the stability and utility of traditional medical equipment. What is needed is a series of mobility aids that provide the benefits of traditional canes, walkers, and the like, but which are updated to provide additional benefits in terms of ergonomics and overall comfort. In addition, providing such updates in a way that meets the design and style preferences of the people who will be purchasing the mobility aids increases patient compliance and results in a decrease in injuries caused by non-compliance.
- A mobility aid such as a cane, trek pole, or walking stick typically includes at least a handle, an elongated shaft, and a tip. In one aspect of the mobility aid of the present invention, the handle has a portion extending substantially upright from the shaft, a portion extending at an angle from the shaft, e.g. at an angle of approximately 45 degrees, and a top portion extending between the upright portion and the angled portion.
- In another aspect of the invention, the portion of the mobility aid which is intended to be grasped, such as the top portion of the cane disclosed above, is covered with a soft grip surface such as a gel pad. The soft grip surface of the present invention could be integral with the handle of the mobility aid, could be separate from the handle of the device, or could be sold separately in a manner that allows users to modify existing mobility aids to include the soft grip surface.
- In yet another aspect of the invention, individualized handles may be provided to accommodate the users' desire for specialized comfort and stability features.
- Preferred exemplary embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which like reference numerals represent like parts throughout, and in which:
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of one embodiment of the mobility aid of the present invention; -
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of the mobility aid of the present invention; -
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a third embodiment of the mobility aid of the present invention; -
FIG. 3A is an enlarged partial perspective view of the handle of the aid shown inFIG. 3 ; -
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a third embodiment of the mobility aid of the present invention; -
FIG. 4A is an enlarged partial perspective view of the handle of the aid shown inFIG. 4 ; -
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a third embodiment of the mobility aid of the present invention; and -
FIG. 5A is an enlarged partial perspective view of the handle of the aid shown inFIG. 5 . - Referring to
FIG. 1 , it can be seen thatmobility aid 20 is shown in the form of a cane. However, it should be noted that the features of the present invention apply equally to walkers, rollaters, trek poles, walking sticks, walking poles, and other mobility aids.Aid 20 has ahandle 22, anelongated shaft 24, and atip 26 for making contact with the ground, floor or other support surface.Handle 22 is further comprised of a generallyupright portion 28 that extends upward fromshaft 24.Handle 22 also has anangled portion 30 that extends at an angle from theshaft 24, such that theshaft 24 and theangled portion 30 define an acute angle therebetween (with reference to a downward-to-upward direction). Representatively, theangled portion 30 may extend at an angle of approximately 45 degrees away from the longitudinal axis ofshaft 24.Handle 22 further includes atop portion 32 that connects theupright portion 28 andangled portion 30, and generally serves as the grasping portion of themobility aid 20.Handle 22 features angles A, B, and C defined by theupright portion 28,angled portion 30, andtop portion 32. The degree of each angle A, B, C is variable within a certain range, but is designed to produce the best results in terms of overall user comfort and ergonomic functioning. Angledportion 30 is especially useful as an auxiliary aid for the user when rising from a seated position. - As seen in
FIG. 2 , the precise shape and angles ofhandle 22 can be varied to yield anaid 20 having a different look and feel without departing from the present invention or the ergonomic benefits thereof. In the embodiment ofFIG. 2 , theupright portion 28 does not extend directly upwardly relative to thelongitudinal axis shaft 24. Rather, in this embodiment, theupright portion 28 angles outwardly in an opposite direction fromangled portion 30, so that each outer end oftop portion 32 is offset from the longitudinal axis ofshaft 24. This variation provides the effect of centering the load of the user's weight over the vertical shaft, thus improving stability without adding any additional stress on the user. The advantages of this variation are also present in the embodiments shown inFIGS. 3 and 4 and correspondingFIGS. 3A and 4A , which are likewise constructed to better center the applied load overshaft 24 for improved stability and reduced skeletal stress. It should be noted that one or more of these handle variations could be employed on thesame mobility aid 20 by providing a plurality ofhandles 22 on asingle shaft 24. - Turning now to
FIGS. 3-5 , it can be seen that handles of various shapes and sizes incorporate a “soft”grip portion 34 for contacting the hand of the user.Grip portion 34 is preferably only located on the top portion ofhandles 22, leaving the remainder of thehandle 22, including the underside, uncoated for gripping stability. The dual goals of comfort at the weight bearing portion and stable handling/gripping of the device by the user are met in this fashion. - In one preferred embodiment,
grip portion 34 is constructed of a gel material contained within a pad that is secured totop portion 32, and which deforms in response to the gripping pressure of the user, thus producing a custom grip effect. A gel substance is currently contemplated as the best mode for producing this instantaneous custom grip effect, since it is relatively inexpensive and readily deforms/reforms almost indefinitely. However, other substances are certainly within the scope of the invention where such substances provide the gripping comfort desired for a handle. - As can be seen from the variety of shapes shown in
FIGS. 3-5 and correspondingFIGS. 3A-5A ,grip portion 34 may be constructed to fit acane 20 having ahandle 22 of many different shapes and sizes. Although not shown in the figures, it should be noted thatgrip portion 34 could also be applied to the P-shaped handles 22 shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 . -
Grip portion 34 may be provided integrally withhandle 22 of amobility aid 20, but may also be applied to ahandle 22 of amobility aid 20 as an after-market attachment. In such a case, it is contemplated that thegrip portion 34 would be provided with an adhesive portion (not shown) provided on the opposite side of the gel portion. Naturally, there are a wide variety of ways to accomplish the connection of agrip portion 34 to an existinghandle 22, all of which are contemplated as within the scope of the invention.
