Description

Gehstützen (Krücken) müssen bei Nichtgebrauch am Boden abgelegt oder an Möbelstücke oder Wände angelehnt werden, wobei sie möglichst in Griffweite bleiben sollten, um die Wiederbenutzung zu erleichtern. Deshalb ist eine Standvorrichtung für Gehstützen hilfreich und erleichtert deren Handhabung.Crutches must be placed on the floor or on furniture or when not in use Walls should be ajar, keeping them within easy reach to reuse them to facilitate. This is why a standing device for crutches is helpful and makes it easier Handling.

Es sind bereits Spezialkonstruktionen mit einer in die Gehstütze integrierten Standvorrichtung bekannt, die nachteiligerweise nicht in herkömmliche Gehstützen nachträglich eingebaut werden können.There are already known special constructions with a stand device integrated in the walking support, which disadvantageously cannot be retrofitted into conventional crutches.

Außerdem sind bereits Standvorrichtungen vorgeschlagen worden, die außen an einer konventionellen Gehstütze als Bausatz angebracht werden können. Eine entsprechende Vorrichtung ist aus den Figuren 17 bis 20 der französischen Offenlegungsschrift 2603479 bekannt. Ungünstig ist der Umstand, dass zur Betätigung dieser Standvorrichtung zwei Hände erforderlich sind, was gerade von gehbehinderten Personen als großer Nachteil empfunden wird.In addition, stand devices have been proposed that are external to a conventional one Crutches can be attached as a kit. A corresponding device is off Figures 17 to 20 of French patent application 2603479 known. It is unfavorable The fact that two hands are required to operate this stand device, which is what is perceived as a major disadvantage by people with walking difficulties.

Der Neuerung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine auch nachträglich an herkömmliche Gehstützen anbringbare Standvorrichtung mit einer besonders einfachen Bedienbarkeit anzugeben.The innovation is therefore based on the task of retrofitting conventional crutches attachable stand device to specify a particularly simple operability.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruchs 1.This object is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1.

Da im Gegensatz zum bekannten Stand der Technik zur Betätigung der Standvorrichtung keine Schwenkbewegung, sondern aufgrund der neuerungsgemäßen Mechanik lediglich eine Zugbewegung notwendig ist, kann das Handhabungselement der Standvorrichtung nahe am Griff der Gehstütze angeordnet werden, so dass vorteilhafterweise eine Einhandbedienung der Standvorrichtung möglich ist.In contrast to the known prior art for actuating the stand device, none Swivel movement, but due to the new mechanics only a pulling movement is necessary, the handling element of the stand device close to the handle of the crutch be arranged so that advantageously one-hand operation of the stand device is possible.

Nachfolgend wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel anhand von Figuren erläutert. Es zeigt:

Die Gehstütze besteht im wesentlichen aus einem zweiteiligen, längeneinstellbaren Stab 11a,b, einem am oberen Ende befestigten Griff 12 mit einer zugeordneten Unterarmschiene 13 und einem Fußkörper 4.The crutch essentially consists of a two-part, length-adjustable rod 11a, b, one at the upper end attached handle 12 with an associated forearm splint 13 and Leg 4.

Die Standvorrichtung weist zwei kurze, um Schwenklager 10 klappbare, schalenförmig ausgebildete Stützbeine 3a,b, die im ausgeklappten Zustand zusammen mit dem Fuß 4 eine Dreipunktstütze bilden, und eine die Stützbeine mit einem Betätigungselement 1 verbindende, längeneinstellbare Zugstange 2 auf. Der Zugstange ist eine in Fig. 4 vergrößert dargestellte Rastmechanik 5 zugeordnet,deren Aufbau und Funktion später noch in Verbindung mit der Fig. 5 erläutert wird. Durch ihre Schalenform liegen die Stützbeine in der Bereitschaftsstellung günstigerweise eng am Stab 11a an (Fig.2).The standing device has two short, cup-shaped, foldable about pivot bearings 10 Support legs 3a, b, which together with foot 4 form a three-point support in the unfolded state, and a length-adjustable connecting the support legs with an actuating element 1 Drawbar 2 on. The pull rod is associated with a locking mechanism 5 shown enlarged in FIG Structure and function will be explained later in connection with FIG. 5. Through her In the ready position, the support legs are advantageously in close contact with the rod 11a in the form of a shell (Fig.2).

Zur Befestigung der Standvorrichtung sind zwei Klemmschellen 6a,b vorhanden, wobei die Klemmschelle 6a am oberen Stab 11a und die Klemmschelle 6b nahe dem Fuß 4 am unteren Stab 11b angebracht ist.Two clamps 6a, b are provided for fastening the standing device, the Clamp 6a on the upper rod 11a and the clamp 6b near the foot 4 on the lower rod 11b is attached.

Die obere Klemmschelle 6a besitzt eine durchgehende Längsbohrung zur Führung der Zugstange 2 und ein Langloch für einen mit der Zugstange verbundenen Zapfen zur Verdrehsicherung der Zugstange. An der untere Klemmschelle 6b befinden sich die Schwenklager 10 der Stützbeine 3a,b. Auch die untere Klemmschelle weist eine als Führungsrohr 20 für die Zugstange 2 dienende Längsbohrung auf.The upper clamp 6a has a continuous longitudinal bore for guiding the pull rod 2 and an elongated hole for a pin connected to the pull rod to prevent rotation of the Pull bar. The pivot bearings 10 of the support legs 3a, b are located on the lower clamp 6b. The lower clamp also has a serving as a guide tube 20 for the tie rod 2 Longitudinal bore on.

Am unteren Ende der Zugstange ist eine umfänglich verlaufend ausgebildete Zahnstange 7 angeformt, in die an den Stützbeinen 3a,b vorhandene Zahnsegmente 8 formschlüssig eingreifen. Oberhalb dieser Zahnstange befindet sich im Führungsrohr 20 der untere Klemmschelle 6b eine die Zugstange 2 permanent nach unten beaufschlagende Druckfeder 9 (Fig.4).At the lower end of the tie rod, a toothed rack 7 which extends circumferentially is formed, engage positively in the tooth segments 8 provided on the support legs 3a, b. Above this rack is in the guide tube 20 of the lower clamp 6b a Tension rod 2, compression spring 9 which acts permanently downwards (Fig. 4).

Im Bereich über der genannten Druckfeder ist die bereits erwähnte Rastmechanik 5 im oberen Abschnitt des Führungsrohres 20 angordnet, die vom Aufbau und der Funktion her der in Kugelschreibern verwendten Rastmechanik ähnlich ist. Sie besteht im Einzelnen aus einer oberhalb der Druckfeder 9 an der Zugstange angeformten, nach oben gerichteten keilförmigen Verzahnung und einer ebenfalls im Führungsrohr axial verschiebbaren, von der Zugstange axial beweglich durchgriffenen Rasthülse 22, die an ihrem unteren Rand auch eine keilförmige Verzahnung besitzt. Aufden oberen Rand übt eine sich an einem an der Zugstange angeformten Bund abstützende Druckfeder 15 ständig eine nach unten gerichtete Kraft aus. Im Führungsrohr 20 befinden sich mehrere radial nach innen vorspringende Längskeile 21 bzw. -stege. Korrespondierend zu diesen Längsstegen sind in der Rasthülse und der Zugstange axial verlaufende Nuten eingeformt.In the area above the compression spring, the already mentioned locking mechanism 5 is in the upper section arranged of the guide tube 20, the structure and function of the in pens locking mechanism used is similar. In detail, it consists of one above the compression spring 9 molded on the tie rod, upward wedge-shaped teeth and one also axially displaceable in the guide tube and penetrated axially by the pull rod Locking sleeve 22, which also has a wedge-shaped toothing on its lower edge. On the top Edge constantly exerts a compression spring 15 which is supported on a collar formed on the tie rod a downward force. Several are located radially inward in the guide tube 20 projecting longitudinal wedges 21 or webs. Corresponding to these longitudinal webs are in the Locking sleeve and the pull rod axially extending grooves are formed.

Die Form der genannten Verzahnungen und deren Funktion ist aus der schematischen Figurenfolge der Fig. 5 erkennbar bzw. anschaulich nachvollziehbar. Wird die Rasthülse durch die Zugstange über den oberen Rand der Längskeile im Führungsrohr angehoben, wird sie durch das Zusammenwirken der schrägen Verzahnungsflächen und den axial wirkenden Druck der von oben auf die Rasthülse drückenden Feder 15 teilweise gedreht und stützt sich schließlich aufden Längskeilen ab (Standposition der Gehstütze). Hierbei stützt sich die Zugstange mit einem an ihr angeformten Anschlag, beispielsweise als Absatz ausgeführt, an der Rasthülse ab. Durch neuerliches Anziehen der Zugstange wird die Rasthülse von den Längskeilen abgehoben, wieder teilweise gedreht und gleitet dann - bedingt durch die Kraft der Feder 9 - zwischen den Längskeilen axial nach unten, wobei die Stützbeine 3a,b von der Feder 9 an den Stab 11a geklappt werden. The shape of the toothing mentioned and its function is shown in the schematic sequence of figures 5 recognizable or clearly understandable. Will the locking sleeve through the tie rod The interaction between them raises the upper edge of the longitudinal wedges in the guide tube of the oblique toothing surfaces and the axially acting pressure from above onto the Locking sleeve pressing spring 15 is partially rotated and is finally supported on the longitudinal wedges (Stand position of the crutch). Here, the pull rod is supported with a stop molded onto it, for example as a paragraph, from the locking sleeve. By tightening the Pull rod is lifted from the longitudinal wedges, partially rotated again and slides then - due to the force of the spring 9 - between the longitudinal wedges axially downwards, the Support legs 3a, b can be folded by the spring 9 on the rod 11a.

Wie aus der Fig. 1 zu erkennen ist, befindet sich die an der Zugstange 2 angeformte Handhabe 1 dicht unterhalb des Griffs 12 und kann von den Fingern einer auf dem Griff 12 aufliegenden Hand bequem erfasst werden. Durch einmaliges Heranziehen der Handhabe an den Griff können die Stützbeine ausgeklappt und durch erneutes Ziehen der Handhabe wieder hochgeklappt werden, wodurch eine einfache Einhandbedienbarkeit der Standvorrichtung gegeben ist.As can be seen from FIG. 1, the handle 1 formed on the pull rod 2 is located just below the handle 12 and can be from the fingers of a hand resting on the handle 12 can be easily recorded. By pulling the handle on the handle once, you can Support legs are folded out and folded up again by pulling the handle again, whereby the stand device can be operated with one hand.

Darüber hinaus sind anstatt der aufgezeigten beispielhaften Lösung weitere vorteilhafte Ausführungen möglich.In addition, instead of the exemplary solution shown, there are further advantageous designs possible.

Um Gewicht und Fertigungsaufwand zu reduzieren, kann anstatt des Schwenklagers 10 ein integriertes Gelenk, beispielsweise ähnlich eines Kunststoffilmgelenks mit integriertem federnden Rückstellelement Verwendung finden.In order to reduce weight and manufacturing effort, an integrated can instead of the pivot bearing 10 Joint, for example similar to a plastic film joint with an integrated resilient Find reset element.

Anstelle der aufgeführten Zugstange 2 mit angebrachter Verzahnung 7 und den Zahnsegmenten 8 ist die Anbringung eines anderen Zugelements, beispielsweise eines hochflexiblen Stahlbandes oder einer Kette, direkt an den Stützbeinen 3a,b denkbar.Instead of the listed tie rod 2 with attached teeth 7 and the toothed segments 8 is the attachment of another tension element, for example a highly flexible steel strip or a chain, directly on the support legs 3a, b conceivable.

Die bereits erwähnte Rastmechanik 5 kann ebenso im Bereich der oberen Schelle 6a integriert werden. Dies führt zu einer ergonomisch verbesserten Gewichtsverteilung der Standvorrichtung an der Gehhilfe.The already mentioned locking mechanism 5 can also be integrated in the area of the upper clamp 6a. This leads to an ergonomically improved weight distribution of the standing device on the Walking aid.
