The present invention relates to a design of a mobility aid, and more particularly to a mobility aid having the function of a cane and a walker.

In fact, there is a Republic of China Announcement No. M439476. The new patent name is the improvement of the walker. The main purpose is that a retractable support frame is arranged above the two rear legs of the walker, and the support frame is bent inwardly so that The upper part of the support frame can be positioned on the shoulder socket of the user, and the width of the shoulders between the two rear side legs is wider than that of the shoulders, and more parts are formed to support the user and the center of gravity of the user is assisted on the inner side of the walker. However, although it has its own function, it lacks the independent function of using it alone, resulting in limited use range, lack of convenience and customization, and can not be used in a multi-functional manner according to user needs.

In addition, another known Republic of China Announcement No. M445440, the new patent name is a walker with a seat function, which mainly comprises two opposite tripods, and the tripod has a handle for the user to hold And the tripods respectively have a front foot bar and a rear foot bar at the two ends of the handrail bar, and a connecting rod is arranged between the middle part of the front and rear foot bars, and the horizontal bar is disposed on the two feet The middle part of the front leg of the frame is further disposed on the middle cross bar, and the other end of the seat plate is respectively provided with a clamping seat, and the clamping seat can be selectively fixed on the front foot bar and the connecting rod, This design uses the seat plate to selectively pick up and lower, greatly improving the convenience of the walker, but The invention lacks the independent functionality to be used alone, so the scope of use is limited and needs to be improved.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a mobility aid having the functions of a cane and a walker that can be varied in different types to achieve a more convenient use of a multi-purpose mode such as a squat or a walker.

Thus, the present invention has a walking aid and a walking aid function, and includes two supporting units, and each of the supporting units has a body and two legs pivoted at a bottom end of the body; wherein A top sill is formed on the top of the body, and an armrest area is formed under the top sill area. The main body is pivotally provided with a fixing rod, and the fixing rod is connected to the body of the other supporting unit. The legs are connected to each other; as for the legs are bent and pivoted on both sides of the body, so that the legs are separated or adjacent to each other; In combination with the changes of these legs, in order to adjust a variety of different usage patterns, such as underarms or walkers, the convenience of use is further enhanced.

The above and other technical contents, features, and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the Detailed Description of the <RTIgt;

Before the present invention is described in detail, it is to be noted that in the following description, similar elements are denoted by phase numbers.

Referring to FIG. 1, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the mobility aid 3 having the crutches and the walker function includes two supporting units 31, and each of the supporting units 31 has a body 311, and the two are pivoted on a shank 312 is formed at a bottom end of the body 311. The top surface of the body 311 is formed with a top sill area 3111, and an armrest area 3112 is formed under the top sill area 3111. The fixing rod 313 is positioned on the body 311 of the other supporting unit 31 to connect the main body 311 to each other. In the embodiment, the body 311 is provided with a fixing device 32. The fixing device 32 has a fixing member 321 disposed on the main body 311, and a buckle 322 disposed on the fixing member 321 . The fixing member 321 defines a fixing rod 313 for the other body 311. The card slot 3211 is engaged with the buckle 322 to fasten the fixing rod 313. The legs 312 are bent and pivoted on both sides of the body 311 so that the legs 312 are pivoted. The legs 312 are in a separated or adjacent state of use; finally, the A telescopic frame 35 is disposed between the body 311 and the leg 312. The telescopic frame 35 is provided with a telescopic frame fastener 351, and the telescopic frame 35 can be extended by the body 311, and the telescopic frame fastener 351 is used to fix the body. 31 and the telescopic frame 35, and control the height of the body 311 and the ground.

Referring to FIG. 1 , in use, the two supporting units 31 are separated into a design, and the legs 312 are adjacent to each other, so that the top sills 3111 can be supported by the user, and the handrails 3112 can be For the user's hand to grip, for use as a squatting; referring to Figure 2, when the user wants to use the mobility aid 3 as a walker, only the legs 312 need to be Both sides are pivoted to be in a separated state, and the fixing rod 313 is bridged to the other After the card slot 3211 of the main body 311 of the support unit 31 is fastened by the buckle 322, the fixing rod 313 can be stably fixed for the user to hold the top sill area 3111 at the same time, even as a The heavy walker is used; further, referring to FIG. 3, the main body 311 can be extended into the telescopic frame 35, and the telescopic frame fastener 351 is used to fix the main body 311 and the telescopic frame 35, according to the use requirements. The telescopic length of the body 311 is adjusted in time, so that the height of the top sill region 3111 and the handrail region 3112 can be reduced to be used as a light walker, so that the fixing rod 313, the legs 312, The design of the telescopic frame 35 will enable the mobile assistive device 3 to have a multi-functional use mode such as a squat, a light, a heavy walker, etc., thereby effectively improving the convenience of use.

Referring to FIG. 4, the second embodiment of the present invention has the same structure as the first embodiment. In particular, the legs 312 are opposite to the body. An extension group 34 is disposed at the pivotal portion of the 311. The extension group 34 has an extension leg 341 extending into the leg 312 and provided with a plurality of adjustment holes 3411.
