Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fixing device for placement on a crutch according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • crutches are used by handicapped people to give them an extra grip. If the crutches must be temporarily put out of hand, for example, at a cash register or in a locker room, they should as possible be placed so that they fall on the one hand not to the ground and on the other hand can then be comfortably gripped again. For this purpose, for example, attached to hospital beds brackets to which the crutches latch when not in use and can be saved from falling over.
  • the DE 90 12 614 U1 describes crutches, which have at the lower end of the support rod a stand device with which the crutch can be turned off automatically.
  • a disadvantage of this solution is that the stand device significantly increases the weight of the crutch and also requires a high mechanical manufacturing effort.
  • a fixing device is known, are provided on the two made of elastomeric adhesive elements. These adhesive elements can be placed on a table edge or other furniture edge to fix the crutch.
  • a disadvantage of this fixing device is that the holding force applied by the fixing device is very low, so that a secure fixation of the crutch is often not possible.
  • the fixing device according to the invention for placement on a crutch is based on the basic idea that a suction cup is used for fixing the crutch to a fastening object.
  • This sucker is connected by means of a cantilevered from the crutch arm with the crutch.
  • the cup-shaped suction surface of the suction cup can come to rest on a mounting surface of the mounting object, wherein a negative pressure between the suction surface of the suction cup and the mounting surface can be generated by applying a slight pressure on the corresponding and sealing of the suction cup relative to the mounting surface.
  • This negative pressure fixes the suction cup and thus the attached crutch to the attachment surface of the attachment object, wherein the negative pressure between the suction surface and attachment surface ensures that relatively high fixing forces are present.
  • the fixing device according to the invention can be produced very inexpensively.
  • a very reliable and secure fixation of the crutches is ensured by the suction cup on the mounting surface of the mounting object.
  • the suction cup is non-slip and also adheres to rough surfaces, such. As tablecloths, Riffelblech, stone, concrete, and can be attached to virtually any edge.
  • the suppleness of the suction cup makes it irrelevant whether an edge is rounded (eg chair or armchair rests) or whether it is a projection on a cupboard, window sill or bench, or any other piece of furniture. Either the bowl sucks or it does not slip off by the gentle pressure on the bowl.
  • a groove is provided on the underside of the cantilever. With this groove, the cantilever can then be hooked from above on a material edge of the fastening object, for example on the upper wire edge of a shopping cart, wherein the material edges of the groove laterally embraced and thereby ensure the desired fixation of the crutch.
  • a downward-pointing nose is provided on the underside of the cantilever arm, with which the cantilever can either ab rangend on the mounting surface of the mounting object and / or on the top of the suction cup to the plant. If the nose on the mounting surface of the attachment object to the system, so the leverage in the support of the nose on the mounting surface are favorably influenced because the nose relative to the center of gravity of the crutch has a smaller lever arm than the support point of the suction cup. If the downwardly pointing nose alternatively or additionally also on the top of the suction cup to the plant, can be improved by the nose, the pressing of the suction cup on the mounting surface.
  • the fixing device may be integrally formed on the support part of the crutch. Since the support part of the crutch is regularly made of plastic, it is easily possible by appropriate mold construction to fix the fixing device in one piece to the crutch.
  • a fastening element for releasably securing the fixing device to the crutch, in particular to the walking support rod may be provided on the side of the fixing device facing the crutch.
  • the fixing device according to the invention can also be manufactured as an accessory and then attached to conventional crutches. Since the Gehstützstäbe have standardized diameter in most cases, in particular the releasable attachment of the fixing device on the walking bar is advantageous because the Fastener can then be matched to this standard diameter of the Gehstweilstabs.
  • the fastening element is adjustable in size and the fixing device can thereby be detachably fastened to crossbars with different diameters.
  • the structural design of the fastener for releasably securing the fixation device to the crutch is in turn arbitrary.
  • the attachment of the fixing device to the crutch can be realized when the fastener is formed in the manner of a clamp with two elastic articulated on the cantilever clamp arms. With this clamp formed from the clamps of Gehstützstab or the support part of the crutch can be embracing encompassed thereby to realize a releasable attachment of the fixing device according to the invention on the crutch.
  • the fixing device can be made with the fastening element formed from the clamps made of plastic.
  • the cantilever arm is designed in the manner of an injection-molded part.
  • the suction cup For attachment of the suction cup on the cantilever, it is particularly advantageous if the suction cup has on its side facing away from the suction surface side a threaded shank, with which it can be screwed into a thread on the cantilever.
  • the fixing device according to the invention can be used on a variety of crutches use.
  • a downwardly facing uprising element is provided at the bottom of the cantilever.
  • the Aufstandselement is to be arranged immediately adjacent to the Gehstützstab, thereby to reduce the lever arm of the center of gravity of the crutch relative to the upper edge of a mounting surface when the cantilever comes to abutment on the upper edge of the mounting surface ab SAnd.Wenn the mounting surface is particularly smooth, it can through the Suction of the suction cup come to the fact that the fixing device can be removed only poorly due to the negative pressure between the mounting surface and suction cup.
  • the suction cup has a recess which allows a pressure equalization between the inside of the suction cup and the outside of the suction cup. This pressure compensation through the recess in the suction cup prevents the build-up of a fixing negative pressure between the mounting surface and the suction cup.
  • fixation device according to the invention can be provided on underarm crutches, the support parts of which have underarm support elements with two bent legs for supporting the forearm of the user.
  • the fixing device according to the invention can also be used on walking sticks or the like which have only one grip part for grasping the walking stick.
  • Fig. 1 shows a crutch 01 when fixed to a mounting object 02 using a fixing device 03 according to the invention.
  • the crutch 01 consists of a Gehstützstab 04, a made of plastic support member 05 with handle 06 and forearm support member 07, and a made of elastomer bottom adhesive element 08th
  • the fixing device 03 consists of a made of plastic cantilever 09 which abkragt transversely to the longitudinal axis of the Gehstützstabs 04 of the crutch 01.
  • a made of elastomeric plastic suction cup 10 is attached at the free end of Kragarms 09 .
  • the suction cup 10 is placed to fix the crutch 01 on the attachment object 02 on the mounting surface 11 and thereby pressed slightly against the mounting surface 11.
  • a negative pressure by which the fixing device 03 and thus the crutch 01 is fixed to the attachment object 02.
  • Fig. 2 shows the fixing device 03 in a lateral view.
  • a groove 12 is incorporated into the cantilever 09, which is provided for fixing the fixing device to fastening objects with material edges. The use of the groove 12 will be described below with reference to Fig. 6 still explained.
  • a nose 13 is integrally formed on the underside of the cantilever 09, which can come to rest on the top of the suction cup 10. Through the nose 13 of the suction cup is pressed when placing the fixing device 03 on the mounting surface 11, so that a correspondingly high negative pressure between the suction cup 10 and the mounting surface 11 is formed.
  • Fig. 3 shows the fixing device 03 in top view.
  • a fastening element 14 is provided for releasably securing the fixing device 03 to the crutch 01.
  • the fastening element 14 is designed in the manner of a clamp and is formed by two elastic clamp arms 15 and 16 articulated on the cantilever arm 09.
  • the formed by the clamping arms 15 and 16 inside, circular section contour has a diameter which is slightly smaller than the diameter of the Gehstweilstabs 04.
  • the fastening element 14 is clamped by spreading the clamping arms 15 and 16 on the walking support rod 04, wherein the slightly smaller inner diameter of the fastening element 14 relative to the outer diameter of the Gehstweilstabs 04 realized a frictional connection between crutches 01 and fixing device 03.
  • Fig. 4 shows the fixing device 03 in cross section along the section line II.
  • the suction cup 10 with its suction surface 17 is screwed by means of a threaded shaft 18 at the free end of the cantilever 09.
  • Fig. 5 shows the fixing device 03 with the cantilever 09, the suction cup 10, the groove 12, the nose 13 and the two cantilevers 15 and 16 in a perspective view from above.
  • Fig. 6 shows the fixation of the crutches 01 using the fixing device 03 to a mounting object 19, which does not allow use of the suction cup 10. Instead, the fixing device 03 is hung with the groove 12 on a material edge 20 of the fastening object 19.
  • Fig. 7 shows a second embodiment 22 of a fixing device in an enlarged side view.
  • the suction cup 23 of the fixing device 22 has a recess 24, so that a pressure equalization between the inside of the suction cup 23 and the outside of the suction cup 23 is made possible. Accordingly, the structure of a fixing negative pressure on the inside of the suction cup 23 is excluded.
  • the fixing device 22 additionally differs from the fixing device 03, that the fastening element 25 with the clamping arms 26 and 27 is adjustable in size and the detachable Attachment of the fixing device 22 allows for walking rods with different diameters.
