Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an arrangement for connecting crutches according to the preamble of claim 1 and to an arrangement with crutches according to the preamble of claim 2.
  • crutches are from the DE 295 18 711 U1 known.
  • To connect the crutches is a mother part with a semicircular receiving opening into which a formed on a male part, a circular projection is inserted.
  • the interconnected crutches are rotatable relative to each other.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide the arrangement of the above mentioned type to improve so that the connection of the two crutches is facilitated.
  • the inventive arrangements have the advantage that the user, even if he holds the two crutches, the insertion element and recess are clearly visible, so that the insertion and thus connecting is facilitated.
  • the nut part 10 comprises a main body 11 with a substantially cylindrical outer shape, which contains a recess 12 in the form of a through hole and a laterally arranged recess 13.
  • the recess 13 tapers in the direction of insertion, which is indicated by the arrow 15.
  • the two side surfaces 14, which bound the recess 13, are inclined towards the center, so that the recess 13 a substantially has trapezoidal cross-section.
  • the insertion direction 15 and the support direction along which the recess 12 extends and which in FIG. 2 indicated by the arrow 16 are arranged at an angle ⁇ .
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 show, the edge of the base body 11 is pulled up at the end of the recess 13, whereby a stop 17 for the recess corresponding to the insertion element 43 of the male part 40 is formed.
  • FIG. 3 shows the base body 11 transversely to the recess 12 has a through hole 19, in which partially a bolt 21 of a locking element 20 is received.
  • the bolt 21 and the hole 19 are stepped, wherein a spring 22 is disposed between the two formed steps.
  • An operating handle 23 is screwed onto the one end of the bolt 21.
  • the base body comprises a further through hole for receiving a fastening screw 26 in the form of an inner socket screw.
  • the recess 12 is provided with a groove 27, in which a nut 28 is accommodated, which forms the mating thread for the fastening screw 26.
  • the male part 40 comprises a main body 41 with a substantially cylindrical outer shape, which contains a recess 42 in the form of a through hole and a laterally disposed, protruding insertion element 43:
  • the support direction 46, along which the recess 42 extends, and the insertion direction 15 are in Essentially parallel to each other.
  • the side surfaces 44 of the insertion element 43, which in the insertion direction 15th taper and have a substantially trapezoidal cross-section, are complementary to the side surfaces 14 of the recess 13 formed. Insertion element 43 and recess 13 thus form a positive connection in the form of a dovetail connection, which tapers in the insertion direction 15.
  • the base body 41 Transverse to the recess 46, the base body 41 comprises a further through hole for receiving a fastening screw 56 in the form of an inner socket screw. Similar to FIG. 4 , the recess 42 is provided with a groove in which a nut 58 is received, which forms the mating thread for the fastening screw 56.
  • the male part 40 contains, in addition to the insertion element 43, a recess 51 into which the bolt end of the locking element 20 can penetrate.
  • the surface 52 is chamfered from the recess 51 to the edge of the main body 41.
  • Oriented orientation of the female part 10 and the male part 40 corresponds to the orientation which the two parts 10 and 40 have when joined together.
  • the recesses 12 and 42 extend in different column directions 16 and 46, respectively.
  • the dashed axis 50 runs perpendicular to the two column directions 16 and 14 and is referred to below as the connection axis.
  • the connecting axis 50 corresponds to the central axis of the cylindrical basic body 11 or 41.
  • the post directions 16 and 46 are arranged rotated around the connecting axis 50 so that the crutches 30 connected by the female part 10 and the male part 40 and 70 essentially form an X, as shown in FIG FIG. 14 is apparent.
  • the connection of insertion element 43 and Recess 13 is rotationally fixed, so that the connected crutches 30 and 70 form a stable bipod.
  • the insertion direction 15, in which the insertion element 43 can be inserted into the recess 13, is substantially perpendicular to the connecting axis 50.
  • the insertion direction 15 is aligned at an angle ⁇ to the support direction 16 and parallel to the support direction 46.
  • the angle ⁇ is in the range of 0 to 45 degrees. It is also conceivable to arrange the support direction 46 at an angle to the insertion direction 15, which is preferably in the range from 0 to 45 degrees.
  • the main body 11 and 41 are made of lightweight material such as plastic, for example by injection molding. To further reduce weight, the base body 11 and 41 are constructed like a scaffold, by the supporting surfaces are interconnected by struts 29 and 59 (cf. FIG. 6 ).
  • each of the illustrated crutches 30 and 60 includes a top 32 and 62 respectively having a handle and a support 31 and 61, respectively, which includes a tubular member 31a and 61a, respectively, in which a foot rest 31b and 61b is slidably received.
  • the footrest 31b or 61b is removed and the tube part 31a or 61a is passed through the recess 12 or 42.
  • the two crutches 30 and 60 are moved relative to each other in height and the Insertion element 43 of the male part 40 is pushed into the recess 13 of the female part 10. Since the insertion direction 15 is arranged substantially perpendicular to the connection axis 50, the recess 13 and the insertion element 43 are clearly visible to the user from the front, so that a correct positioning of the two parts 10 and 40 presents no difficulties. In particular, no complicated head rotation is required to look from the side of the parts to be joined can. Due to the tapered configuration of the recess 13 and the insertion element 43, the inclusion is additionally facilitated.
  • the bolt end of the locking member 20 contacts the chamfered surface 52.
  • the bolt end is pressed into the hole 19 until it finally comes to rest over the recess 51, where the bolt 21 is pushed back outwards due to the spring force and finally engages in the recess 51.
  • the stop 17 ensures that the insertion element 43 can not be moved beyond the end position.
  • the two crutches 30 and 60 are now rotationally fixed and secured against each other connected. They form a stable bipod, which can be leaned against a stable application point located near the user, for example a table edge, a chair or a wall.
  • the crutches 30 and 60 are supported in this case at least three points, so that the risk of falling over is reduced.
  • the locking element 20 is actuated by the bolt 21 is moved by pulling the handle 23 to the outside, and the two Crutches 30 and 60 are separated by offsetting in height.
  • FIGS. 10-13 are shown various views of a support member 70, which is optionally used together with the parent and male parts 10, 40.
  • the support member 70 includes a support head 73 and a support leg 71 pivotally supported thereon.
  • This includes an upper support member 71a having a rectangular cross section and a lower support member 72b having a U-shaped cross section and slidably received in the upper support member 71a.
  • the support elements 71a and 71b form a telescopic support which is adaptable to the length of the supports 31 and 61 of the crutches 30 and 60.
  • the end of the lower support member 71b is provided with a rubber foot 72.
  • the holding head 73 comprises an axis 74 which is guided through a bore 75 at the upper end of the support leg 71 and fastened by means of screw 76.
  • the support leg 71 is pivotable about the axis 74.
  • the end of the support leg 71 has an edge 78 which is chamfered by the angle ⁇ relative to the longitudinal side 79 of the support leg 71.
  • the angle ⁇ substantially corresponds to the angle about which the support leg 71 is maximally pivotable, and is preferably in the range of 15 degrees to 50 degrees.
  • the holding head 73 further comprises a locking device with a spring 81 and a shaft 82 which is slidably disposed in a continuous slot 83, wherein the spring 81 presses on the center of the shaft 82.
  • a locking device with a spring 81 and a shaft 82 which is slidably disposed in a continuous slot 83, wherein the spring 81 presses on the center of the shaft 82.
  • two rollers 84 and 85 are rotatably arranged, wherein the two inner rollers 84 in contact stand with the end of the support leg 71 and the two outer rollers 85 can roll on the inner surface of the elongated hole 83.
  • FIG. 14 shows the support leg 71 in the retracted position.
  • the user exerts a torque on the support leg 71 so that the spring 81 is compressed, the outer rollers 85 roll along the inner surface of the slot 83 and the inner rollers 84 roll over the edge of the support leg 71 on its longitudinal side 79. Accordingly, the user exerts a torque on the support leg 71 when it is to be folded again.
  • the locking device described here ensures that in both functional positions of the support leg 71, a certain torque must be expended in order to extend or retract the support leg 71. This reduces the risk that the support leg 71 unintentionally changes the functional position selected by the user.
  • the arresting effect is achieved solely due to the arresting device arranged in the holding head 73, which has the advantage that no further parts on the support leg 71, for example on the lower support element 71b, are required.
  • the holding head 73 comprises a recess 92 in the form of a through hole, through which the support 31a or 61a is feasible, a through hole for receiving a fastening screw 96 and a nut 98 which the mating thread for the fastening screw 96 forms.
  • the support member 70 For the production of the support member 70 light materials are preferred, in particular plastic for the holding head 73 and aluminum for the support leg 71st
  • the support 31 is guided through the recess 92 of the support member 70 and secured by means of the fastening screw 96.
  • the support member 70 can also be mounted on the support 61.
  • the length of the support leg 71 is adjusted so that in the folded position of the rubber foot 72 comes to lie slightly above the end of the support 31a, as in FIG. 14 is apparent.
  • the angle between the support leg 71 and the support 31 substantially corresponds to the angle ⁇ . If this angle selected at about 30 degrees, the ends of the supports 31 and 61 and the support leg 71 lie in the vertices of a substantially equilateral triangle, as this in FIG. 16 is indicated by the dash-dotted lines.
  • the use of the support member 71 together with the parent and male parts 10, 40 has the advantage that the user can produce a stable tripod from the crutches 30 and 60 virtually anytime, regardless of the location, similar to a tripod for still cameras.
  • the inventive arrangement is in a variety of types of crutches, especially forearm crutches, as shown in the Figures 14-16 and crutches can be used to form a tripod.
  • the parts 10 and 40 may be provided with a plurality of parallel connections of insertion element 43 and recess 13.
  • the base body 11 and 41 may be provided with a V-shaped groove in which the support 31 and 61 is fixed.
