Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a guide device used for walking guidance of elderly or disabled persons, walking and running training, and guidance and evacuation during disasters.

Generally, elderly or disabled people use handrails or other building attachments when moving independently.
Blind people are unable to move smoothly and safely, such as by being guided by guidance tiles.

In addition, an attendant is always required for walking training for the handicapped, walking training for the blind, rehabilitation for the injured, etc., and it has often been seen that the personal will of the handicapped is restricted in training and exercise.

Furthermore, in the event of an unexpected disaster in a facility for housing the elderly or the disabled, a hospital, a public facility, outdoors, etc., the problem of guided evacuation is extremely important and difficult, and a solution is desired. .

The present invention was invented to solve the various problems mentioned above as well as other problems.
To explain the embodiment, reference numeral 1 denotes a guide rail that is installed along a building, a passageway, etc., and has a channel-shaped cross section with grooves 2 formed on the lower surface.
3 is a grip 4 located on the side of the guide rail 1;
This running body 3 is equipped with a guide rail 1.
The grip 4 is movably housed inside the grip 4 and protrudes to the outside via the groove 2. As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the traveling body 3 is connected to the groove 2 of the guide rail 1.
The connecting rod 8 of the grip 4 is projected to the outside through the
2 which is in contact with the inner bottom surface of the guide rail 1 on one side of the base body 9 to which the grip 4 is attached, that is, on the side where the grip 4 is disposed.
The lower vertical wheels 5 and 5' are attached to the other side, and the upper vertical wheel 6 that comes into contact with the upper inner surface is attached to the other side, and the small diameter auxiliary wheel 7 whose outer peripheral part comes into contact with the front and rear inner walls of the guide rail 1. , 7' are attached on both sides. In this embodiment, the grooves 2 are arranged below, but if they are arranged above, the bending mode of the connecting rod 8 will be different, as shown in FIG. Further, the number of each wheel is not limited to the embodiment, and the outer shape etc. of the guide rail 1 is not limited as long as it has a channel-shaped cavity in cross section. Furthermore, although the vertical wheels 5, 5', 6 and the auxiliary wheels 7, 7' are shown with their axes arranged horizontally or vertically, even if the axes are tilted, there will be no difference in operation and effect. .

The guide rail 1 can be buried in the wall of a building or passageway, installed along the wall using a fixture, or installed on a support stand as appropriate in a training field, etc. A running body 3 equipped with a grip 4 is movably installed inside the body, and can be used for various purposes such as holding the grip 4 or having the body supported by the grip 4 for walking and running training, or as a guide in a passage. It is something.

In the embodiment, it is expressed as a grip 4, but it does not necessarily have to be a handle, and any structure that can support the body will produce similar effects.

As mentioned above, the present invention has a guide rail 1 and a running body 3.
It is constructed with a grip 4 inside and a grip 4 protruding from the outside, and can be used as a cane to assist and safely guide elderly, disabled, or blind people when walking. It is possible to carry out walking and running training as part of rehabilitation for people and running training for blind people according to each individual's ability.Furthermore, even in the case of emergency evacuation during disasters, it is possible to quickly and easily perform walking and running training for blind people without the need for direct guidance and assistance from attendants. Since the running body 3 is installed inside the guide rail 1, there is no risk of personal injury due to the wheels, and the grip 4 is located on the side of the guide rail 1. The running body 3 has lower vertical wheels 5, 5' which abut against the inner bottom surface of the guide rail 1 on the side where the grip 4 of the base body 9 is disposed, and which can be gripped or supported without becoming an obstacle. Further, on the other side, there are provided upper vertical wheels 6 that come into contact with the upper inner surface, and auxiliary wheels 7 and 7' that come into contact with the inner wall of the guide rail 1, so that the traveling body 3 can swing. This has various effects, such as eliminating the risk of unnecessary tilting of the traveling body 3 due to the downward load applied to the grip 4, preventing excessive travel, and allowing extremely safe movement, thereby contributing to social welfare. This is a useful idea that contributes to the
