Description

  The present invention relates to a cane that is used when an elderly person or a disabled person walks or stands up, and particularly relates to a cane that has a structure that can be used as a handrail.

  As a conventional technique, a cane used at the time of walking is mainly provided with a body-addressed part, and there is no one that can be installed in a stable state on the floor or wall surface.

  As described above, the conventional product merely serves as a cane for supporting the body, and cannot be used as a handrail by leaning on a floor surface or a wall surface in a stable state.

  In view of such drawbacks, the present invention aims to provide an assisting cane that can be used as a handrail by being able to support the body as well as being stably installed on the floor surface, wall surface, etc. It is a thing.

  Its structure is that a long side holding part is placed above the pillar, a short gripping part is placed in the center, and the pillar is stably installed on the floor or the like at the outer ends of the side holding part and the gripping part. A support for supporting is arranged.

  The assisting cane of the present invention has a support for stably installing and supporting the column on the floor surface etc. on the outside end of the side holding part and the gripping part arranged on the column, There is an advantage that the cane can be stably installed, and the cane can be used as a handrail to assist the elderly and disabled persons in standing up.

FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of an assisting cane according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a front view of the same. FIG. 3 is a side view of the same. FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the use state. FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing another use state. FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing still another usage state.

  The present invention has an object that can be used not only as a normal cane but also as a handrail, with a side support part, a grip part, and a support body provided on the side support part and the grip part. And realized.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the assistance cane of the present invention has the following configuration.

  A long side holding part 14 is arranged above the columnar column 12, a short holding part 16 is arranged in the center, and the column 12 is placed on the floor or on the outer ends of the side holding part 14 and the holding part 16. A support 18 for stably installing and supporting the wall surface is provided.

  In this example, the support column 12, the side holding portion 14, and the gripping portion 16 are formed of an aluminum material having excellent strength.

  The support 18 disposed on the side holding part 14 and the gripping part 16 is also formed of an aluminum material.

  The support 18 of the side holding part 14 is arranged by welding, and the support 18 of the gripping part 16 is a substantially semicircular body formed of an elastic material.

  The side holding part 14 and the gripping part 16 form a support hole in the fixing mechanism 20 that can be adjusted in height with respect to the pillar 12, for example, the pillar, and form a through hole in the side holding part 14 and the gripping part 16. It is fixed by a mechanism in which a bolt is inserted and a bolt end is fixed by a nut, and a mechanism that is tightened and fixed by applying a load applied to a stilt of play equipment.

  Since the assistance cane of the present invention is used as a handrail, the outer shape of the support column 12, the side holding portion 14, and the gripping portion 16 is larger than that of a normal cane.

  In this example, the length of the support column 12 is about 1200 mm to 1600 mm, the length of the side holder 14 from the support column 12 is about 240 mm to 300 mm, and the assistance cane of the present invention is used as a handrail. The external shape of the support | pillar 12, the side holding | maintenance part 14, and the holding | grip part 16 is made larger diameter than a normal cane.

  Further, it is desirable to protect the part directly contacting the human body with a cushioning material.

  The method of using the assistance cane according to the present invention will be described below.

  First, when used as a cane, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, it may be used in the same manner as a normal cane. The side holding part 14 abuts on the side of the human body, the gripping part 16 is gripped by hand, Walk with your body supported.

  Next, when using as a handrail, a cane is installed in the floor F as shown in FIG.

  At this time, by installing the support 18 disposed on the side holding portion 14 and the gripping portion 16 on the floor surface F, the cane is stably supported in an obliquely inclined state, so the support column 12 is used as a handrail, Get up (get up).

  Further, when installing on the wall surface, as shown in FIG. 5, the support body 18 disposed on the side holding portion 14 and the gripping portion 16 is brought into contact with the wall surface W, and is inclined in consideration of the center of gravity of the cane. The column 12, the side holding part 14 or the gripping part 16 standing upright is used as a handrail to stand up (get up).

  Further, when standing on the table, as shown in FIG. 6, the support 18 disposed on the side holding portion 14 is brought into contact with the top plate of the table T and tilted in consideration of the center of gravity of the cane. The upright column 12 is used as a handrail to stand up (get up).

  Moreover, as shown in FIGS. 1-3, when using as a cane, a hand can be applied to the support | pillar 12 upper part and the side holding | maintenance part 14, and direction of a body can be changed and a rotational motion can be assisted.
