Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a walking aid with pivotable support feet, which can be pivoted between a folded and an unfolded position.
  • Walking aids such as crutches are well known in the art. This results in the problem that when the user of such walking aids in the meantime want to turn off the walking aids, he has to lean on furniture, walls or the like, since the walking aids can not stand alone. This entails the risk that the ajarged walking aids or crutches fall over and the user then has great difficulty to take them back into their hands.
  • the object of the present invention to provide a walker, in which the fold-out support feet can be reliably moved between an unfolded and a folded position.
  • the walker on a support tube on which, for example, handles can be provided in a conventional manner to a handle portion.
  • a slidably mounted along the longitudinal direction of the support tube foot element that can thus be moved between a retracted and an extended position on the support tube and which is hollow.
  • pivotable support legs are mounted with their first ends such that the support legs can be pivoted between a folded and an unfolded position, wherein the support legs in the retracted position substantially parallel to each other along the longitudinal direction of the support tube.
  • the pivot axes of the support legs are perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the support tube.
  • the support legs are disposed inclined to the longitudinal direction of the support tube, and the second ends of the support legs remote from the first ends are remote from each other.
  • biasing means are provided which exert a torque on the support feet, so that the support feet tend to move in the unfolded position, that are biased in the unfolded position.
  • the foot member is slidably mounted on the support tube such that in the extended position it extends at least as far beyond the free end of the support tube as to prevent the support legs from pivoting to the deployed position, this being achieved in that the hollow foot member at least partially receives the support feet when in the extended position.
  • the support legs are released so that they can pivot automatically due to the action of the biasing means in the unfolded position.
  • Such a mechanism is easy to operate solely by moving the foot member, so that the support feet can be easily and reliably opened or opened.
  • the foot element is displaceable along the outer wall of the support tube, which can be easily realized, since the support tube can then possibly be made with reinforcements provided inside tube material and thus has a high stability.
  • the support legs in the extended position of the foot member, are fully disposed within the foot member so that the second ends of the support legs do not extend beyond the free end of the foot member.
  • this may be done by providing a closed elastic ring which abuts between the first ends of the support feet and the recesses on the outside of the support legs.
  • the elastic ring is stretched compared to the situation in which the support feet are pivoted outwardly. Thereby, the biasing force is generated, which presses the support feet in the unfolded position.
  • U-shaped spring elements may be used, which have a first and a second leg.
  • each support leg is associated with a spring element, wherein the free end of the first, radially to the longitudinal direction of the support tube inside arranged leg of the spring element facing the outwardly facing surface of a support foot and the second, viewed radially to the longitudinal direction of the support tube outwardly facing legs supported on an inner wall of the support tube.
  • the arrangement is then chosen so that the free end of the first leg is disposed on the outside of the respective support leg between the recess and its free end.
  • support rod at the free end of the support tube extending along the longitudinal direction of the support tube from its free end between the support feet extending support rod may be provided.
  • This support bar prevents the deployed outriggers from pivoting further outwardly when a user accidentally rests against the assistant while the outriggers are deployed. In this case, the free end of the support rod comes into contact with the ground, and there is no risk that the support legs or their pivotal connection with the free end of the support tube will be damaged.
  • a walking aid 1 As in the Fig. 1 and 2 can be seen, the first embodiment of a walking aid 1 according to the invention on a support tube 3, which extends along a longitudinal direction and At the upper end of a handle portion 4 may be provided with a designed in a conventional manner handle.
  • a foot member 7 At the free end 5 of the support tube 3, a foot member 7 is mounted, which can be moved along the longitudinal axis of the support tube 3 relative to this, wherein the foot member 7, the in Fig. 1 shown extended or the in Fig. 2 illustrated retracted position can take.
  • the foot member 7 is hollow or made of pipe material and slides along the outer surface of the support tube. 3
  • support legs 9 pivotally hinged to the support tube 3, that they are perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the support tube 3 extending pivot axes relative to the support tube 3 between a in Fig. 3 shown folded position and one in Fig. 2 shown unfolded position can be pivoted.
  • pin 15 is mounted in such a way that the support tube 3 facing end is secured in a socket 17 by means of a clamping pin 19 extending through holes in the pin 15th and the bushing 17 extends.
  • the bushing 17 in turn is supported by a clamping pin 20 extending transversely through bores in the support tube 3 and the bush 17.
  • the pointing away from the support tube 3 free end 21 of the pin 15 has a perpendicular to the longitudinal direction circumferential projection 23 which is received in the recesses 13 of the support legs 9.
  • the support legs 9 can pivot about the projection 23, wherein the pivot axes then each perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the support tube 3 extend.
  • an elastic ring 25 is provided, which abuts on the outer surface of the support legs 9, facing away from the longitudinal direction thereof, wherein the elastic ring 25 between the first ends 11 of the support legs 9 and the recesses 13th is arranged for the projection 23.
  • the elastic ring 25 is stretched when the support legs 9 are in the folded position in which they extend substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction of the support tube 3 and thus abut almost against each other.
  • the elastic ring 25 causes the support legs 9 to swing apart in the unfolded position, which in the Fig. 2 . 4 . 5 and 6 is shown.
  • the first, in the Fig. 1 to 6 illustrated embodiment can now be operated as follows.
  • the foot member 7 in the normal use in the in Fig. 1 and 3 illustrated extended position, where it is held with known locking means 29 in this position.
  • the locking means 29 is released, and the foot member 7 is moved along the support tube 3 in the retracted position upwards, as shown in the Fig. 2 and 4 is shown.
  • the foot member 7 moves so far up that its inner wall is disposed above the free end 21 of the pin 15, so that the support legs 9 due to the bias generated by the ring 25 from the retracted position, the in Fig. 3 is shown, pivot in the unfolded position. It is determined by inclined surfaces 31 on the inner wall of the foot member 7, how far the support feet. 9 can swing to the outside.
  • the walker can stand alone in a simple manner, and it is not necessary to lean on a suitable object.
  • the foot member 7 When the normal use is to be resumed, the foot member 7 only needs to be moved back along the support tube 3 back to the extended position in the Fig. 1 and 3 is shown to be moved. The free end of the foot member 7 pushes the support legs 9 back into the retracted position against the action of the biasing means in the form of the elastic ring 25th
  • FIG. 7 to 10 A second embodiment of an assistant according to the invention is shown, this differs from the previously described characterized in that the biasing means is formed in this case not as a circumferential elastic ring 25, but as a spring member 33 having a first leg 35 and a second leg 37 has.
  • the first leg 35 is arranged radially inwards relative to the longitudinal direction of the support tube 3, while the second leg 37 arranged radially on the outside relative to the longitudinal direction of the support tube 3 is supported on the inner wall of the support tube 3.
  • recesses 39 are provided in the bush 17 at the end pointing to the support legs 9, in which the spring elements 33 are received.
  • the free end 41 of the first leg 35 of the spring elements 33 is located on the respective support leg 9 between the recess 13, in which the circumferential projection 23 is received, and the first end 11 of the support leg 9 at. These are, as in the FIGS. 9 and 10 shown, in the region of the first ends 11 of the support legs 9 slots 43 formed in which the free ends 41 of the first leg 35 are received.
  • this second embodiment is also operated as described in connection with the first embodiment.
  • a third embodiment of an assistant according to the invention shown which differs from the embodiment of the Fig. 7 to 10 differs in that at the free end 5 of the support tube 3 is a along the longitudinal direction of the support tube 3 of the free end 5 away between the support legs 9 extending support rod 45 is provided.
  • the support rod 45 is received in this embodiment in a bore in the free end 21 of the pin 15 so that it extends from there between the support legs 9 downwards away.
  • the length of the support bar 45 is dimensioned so that it does not extend all the way to a plane which is defined by the free ends 47 of the support legs 9, when they are in the deployed position (see Fig. 12 ).
  • the support rod 45 is not in contact with a bottom surface when the support legs 9 are in the unfolded position and the mate 1 is turned off.
  • the support rod 45 prevents the unfolded support legs 9 pivot further outwards, for example, if a user is accidentally supported with the support feet 9 folded out on the assistant 1. In this case, the free end 47 of the support rod 45 comes to rest with the ground. Thus, there is no risk that the support legs 9 or their pivotal connection to the free end 5 of the support tube 3 are damaged.
  • support feet 9 can be moved in a simple manner from the folded in the unfolded position and back again.
