Description

In recent years, more than half of the national budget has been covered by debt every year, and decades have already passed. This year, the government will change and the budget for public facility development will become tighter, but the aging society is now approaching rapidly, and barrier-free development in public places is an urgent issue but it is more than the current situation Has entered an era when we cannot expect much improvement. This proposal proposes a technology that can be used to provide walking aids at low cost, not only at homes but also on stairs and other places in public places.

When humans age, they do not move as quickly as the whole body, not just walking. If you do it, abnormalities and evil will occur somewhere in your body. In the past, the staircase that was rushed up would not come with legs. This is because both legs are less capable of supporting weight than when young. If you do so, you can even invite an accident. When you were young, you could run freely outdoors, and if you were confident in the race, you could even have a foot tangle. Elderly women often walk with a baby carriage or a baby wheelbarrow as a walking stick. These are strong ally as a walking aid with fatigue prevention. The present invention proposes a technology that is suitable for the modern environment as described above, and is a barrier for staircases in stairs in public facilities and public places as well as in homes. It proposes free aids. Even if there is no real sense of the person's consciousness, the human weight will gradually become lighter with aging, but the person's real feeling will make the whole body heavier and will not move as thought in the head. One of the causes is a decline in muscle strength. In the past, when the staircase on the second floor, which has been climbed while running, also ages, the handrail becomes an indispensable equipment for safety as well as a simple aid. The human body has a particularly heavy head. For that reason, when the muscle strength declines due to aging, the muscle strength of the legs does not rise as expected even during normal walking, and suddenly falls, causing an unexpected disaster. These are things that are possible not only outdoors but also in everyday homes. These are also largely due to the fact that the muscle strength of the legs and arms is declining with aging compared to when they are young. The leg is the strength that supports the body and is the strength to bounce, while the arm is the strength to grip and pull. The present invention proposes a technique that makes it easier to take action by using the load of other heavy objects and the natural gravity of the earth instead of these weakened muscle strengths. Looking at the prior application, for example, there are registered utility model 3102530 rail-type handrail elevators and registered utility model 3096142 lightweight stair elevators, all of which utilize other power sources such as prime movers. It is fundamentally different.

Aging has long been said to be from the foot. Since humans began to walk on two legs, it has become possible to support the human body with two legs, so that both hands are free, and finger movement stimulates the brain that is the basis of the idea and thinks Although there was a big difference from animals, humans still aging and muscle strength declines as they age. It is good if it only fades, but the decline in muscle strength loses its instantaneous power and the body does not move freely as thought in the brain. A person's strength and judgment gradually decline after a certain age, but since the person himself always feels vigorous and spiritual when he was young, accidents caused by mistakes and illusions occur. Children's strength has become stronger for some time, and there are more and more cases in which the calculated mentality develops into a case due to the child's repulsion or the judgment of the child is generally accepted by the world. There is an increasing number of people who feel old in such a process and gradually leave it to their children's judgment in social life as they age. However, as far as the daily life around you, if you are a healthy person, you must do your own thing.

Maintaining leg strength is important for human health. As you walk, you use your entire body and your surroundings, including hearing, change your surroundings, renew your brain, obtain new information, and activate your brain. However, if you go out, the steps of the road are an accessory, and even if you go out, most buildings will have stairs. High-rise buildings are equipped with elevators and escalators, but regular shopping and meetings are mostly required on the lower floors. During these daily activities, the decline in muscle strength due to aging has led to unexpected unintentional accidents, and a single accident has recently led to bedridden life. Or, on a business trip or homecoming, getting on and off the vehicle or going up and down the station stairs are inevitable. In these cases, there is a lot of single action, and tangling, stumbling, and slipping of one foot cause unexpected accidents. The health of each individual in an aging society will eventually lead to sound national finances. The present invention provides a jig that is always equipped with an action aid in a daily life space or activity space and covers an unnoticeable decline in muscle strength due to aging. Daily behavior in an aging society can lead to unexpected accidents and even death.

Therefore, the present invention provides as a permanent equipment a safe jig that can be easily relied on by hand on a part of a general building as well as an outdoor building or a climbing thing as a means to achieve the above object. The details are that both the top and bottom or both front and rear of the traveling direction are arranged with pulleys that rotate around the rotation axis, and the vertical reciprocal cableway is looped between the top and bottom pulleys, or the traveling direction is both front and rear. In the case of vertical use, one cable line is dedicated to lifting heavy loads, and the weight of the weight is fixed to the other cable line connected in the reciprocating ring. The center of gravity force guides the other lifting heavy load up and down, and both cableway lines are equipped with anti-blurring guides for heavy objects on both the upper and lower sides, so that lifting aids using gravity without sagging It is possible to provide. On the other hand, when a reciprocating cableway parallel to both the front and rear of the traveling direction is stretched in a ring shape, a vertical vertical load for pulling is separately attached to the end side pulley, thereby assisting the pedestrian to walk by pulling the load. I can do it. The sidewalk side of the automatic sidewalk placed just on the plane is a shape that only walks on the side of the automatic sidewalk, but guides walking.

Further, the present apparatus may be used for raising / lowering or transporting heavy objects. Elevators and escalators are convenient, but the equipment is expensive. Especially when it comes to retrofitting, the device of the present invention is not only easy to install as a regular facility or as a part in buildings, station buildings, ordinary houses, nature, but also in terms of strength even if the object is heavy It is easily adaptable, and if the entire device is covered with an aesthetic cover, when the cover surface is used as an advertising column, it will be noticed by many people on the staircase of a station building, and advertising value will be generated. In addition, if you use local special products such as bamboo for the cover, it will be a local rice cake and will also help to revitalize the region. In addition, strong ropes and wires are preferred for outdoor cable lines, but the material is carbon fiber, stainless steel, aluminum or plant material, etc. This technology principle can be applied to a wide range of products from outdoor to mountain climbing as well as large products.

In particular, the present invention can be retrofitted to install new buildings, as well as safety jigs as unit parts on the stairs of the station building, etc., so that even elderly people can go out with peace of mind, and the construction itself has little experience. However, it is possible to do with DIY, and if you buy off-the-shelf units, it can be easily installed by both retrofits and amateurs. The two-story or three-story remodeling is relatively easy and can be installed. In addition, you may hang | hang to the position which cannot see the attachment position of the weight for tension | tensile_strength. In short, if it is possible to install and maintain, it is better to see where it is not visible.

The present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic front view of a heavy load lifting assist device according to the present invention. A user holds a grip bar 2-1 and a lock mechanism 8 with a dominant hand and goes up the stairs while applying weight. Then, the gripping rod moves from 2-1 to 2-2 together with the user. Meanwhile, the weight 5-1 acts as a puller and can easily move from the position 5-1 to 5-2. When the lock mechanism 8 and the grasping rod 2-1 are grasped, the lock is released, and the weight of gravity causes the weight to move from the position 5-1 to 5-2 by its own weight, so that the body is lifted by that amount. The weight of the stairs makes it easy to climb the stairs, especially for people with disabilities. Caregivers need a lot of energy to change their movements when they first move, but if they can grasp it with their hands, they can help and help their caregivers. Useful as a function.

Soon Japan will enter an aging society. What the people and governments are most worried about as they enter an aging society is the problem of medical expenses. By attaching this device and using your limbs, you can spend your daily life energetically, stimulating the built-in to prevent obesity, and if you can maintain a healthy retirement, the market can be expected without limit, creating various peripheral devices based on this device The market may be activated and industries suitable for an aging society may be derived.
