6. April 1998 Standvorrichtung für eine Gehstütze6 April 1998 Stand for a walking stick
BeschreibungDescription
Gehstützen (Krücken) müssen bei Nichtgebrauch am Boden abgelegt oder an Möbelstücke oder Wände angelehnt werden, wobei sie möglichst in Griffweite bleiben sollten, um die Wiederbenutzung, z.B. zum Aufstehen zu erleichtert. Deshalb ist eine Standvorrichtung für Gehstützen hilfreich und erleichtert deren Handhabung.When not in use, walking aids (crutches) must be placed on the floor or leaned against furniture or walls, but they should remain within reach if possible to make it easier to use them again, e.g. to get up. That is why a stand for walking aids is helpful and makes them easier to handle.
Bisherige Vorschläge für eine Standvorrichtung (z. B. G 90 12 614.9 oder G 90 07 000.3) haben den Nachteil, daß sie den Gebrauch der Krücke durch abstehende Teile behindern oder schwer zu betätigen sind (z.B. Fußbetätigung) bzw. bei einer Längenänderung der Krücke nicht oder nur umständlich angepaßt werden können.Previous proposals for a stand device (e.g. G 90 12 614.9 or G 90 07 000.3) have the disadvantage that they hinder the use of the crutch due to protruding parts or are difficult to operate (e.g. foot operation) or cannot be adjusted or can only be adjusted with difficulty if the length of the crutch changes.
Der Erfindung hat zum Ziel, eine verbesserte Standvorrichtung für Gehstützen zu schaffen mit folgenden Eigenschaften:The aim of the invention is to create an improved support for crutches with the following properties:
Sicherer, freier Stand der GehstützeSafe, free standing of the crutch
Einfache Bedienung mit geringem Kraftaufwand ohne die Hand vom Griffholm der Krücke nehmen zu müssen.Easy to use with little effort without having to take your hand off the handle of the crutch.
Einfache Nachrüstung der üblichen Ausführung von Gehstützen mit der Standvorrichtung.Easy retrofitting of the standard design of crutches with the stand device.
Die an der Krücke befestigte Standvorrichtung soll beim Gehen nicht stören, möglichst leicht und einfach sein.The support device attached to the crutch should not interfere with walking and should be as light and simple as possible.
Die Standvorrichtung muß bei Längenverstellung der Krücke einfach angepaßt werden können.The stand must be easy to adjust when adjusting the length of the crutch.
Dieses Problem wird mit den in den Schutzansprüchen genannten Merkmalen gelöst mit folgenden Vorteilen:This problem is solved with the features mentioned in the claims with the following advantages:
Die Standvorrichtung kann durch eine einfache Handbewegung betätigt und die Gehstütze zum sicheren Stand gebracht werden.The stand can be operated with a simple hand movement and the walking stick can be brought into a safe position.
Die Standvorrichtung ist an alle üblichen Bauformen von Krücken nachrüstbar, trägt nicht auf und stört nicht beim Gehen, hat ein geringes Gewicht und ist einfach und kostengünstig herzustellen sowie längenverstellbar.The stand can be retrofitted to all standard crutch designs, is not bulky and does not interfere with walking, is lightweight and is easy and inexpensive to manufacture and is adjustable in length.
Die Erfindung wird in einer Ausführungsform durch folgende Figuren erläutert:The invention is explained in one embodiment by the following figures:
Fig. 1: Gehstütze mit Standvorrichtung in Funktionsstellung Fig. 2: Gehstütze mit eingeklappter Standvorrichtung Fig. 3: Seilzug mit Verstelleinrichtung.Fig. 1: Walking stick with stand in functional position Fig. 2: Walking stick with folded stand Fig. 3: Cable pull with adjustment device.
Bei Betätigung der Standvorrichtung durch einen in Griffnähe der Gehstütze befindlichen Handhebel (1) werden über einen Seilzug (2) zwei Stützbeine (3a,3b) nach unten geklappt. Die Stützbeine bilden mit der Auflagefläche (4) der Gehstütze ein gleichseitiges Dreieck. Der Neigungswinkel der Krücke ist so gewählt, daß das Lot von deren Schwerpunkt auf die Standfläche in die Mitte dieses Dreiecks·fällt und somit ein sicherer Stand erreicht wird.When the stand is operated using a hand lever (1) located near the crutch, two support legs (3a, 3b) are folded down using a cable pull (2). The support legs form an equilateral triangle with the support surface (4) of the crutch. The angle of inclination of the crutch is selected so that the plumb line from its center of gravity to the base falls in the middle of this triangle, thus ensuring a secure stand.
Der Handhebel (1) wird automatisch-arretiert, wenn die
Stützbeine (3a,3b) ausgeklappt sind.
Die Halterung (5) der Stützbeine wird am unteren, herausziehbaren Teil der Gehstütze in der Nähe der
Auflagefläche (4) mit einer Schelle, Clipsen oder ähnlichen
Vorrichtungen befestigt und muß deshalb bei einer Längenänderung der Krücke nicht verstellt werden.The hand lever (1) is automatically locked when the support legs (3a,3b) are unfolded.
The bracket (5) of the support legs is attached to the lower, extendable part of the crutch near the support surface (4) with a clamp, clips or similar devices and therefore does not need to be adjusted if the length of the crutch is changed.
Nach Entriegelung der Arretierung des Betätigungshebels (1) durch z.B. einen Druckknopf (17) o.a. werden die Stützbeine durch Federkraft nach oben geschwenkt und legen sich dicht an das Krückenrohr (lla) an. Damit wird der Gebrauch der Gehstütze beim Gehen nicht durch abstehende Teile beeinträchtigt.After unlocking the locking mechanism of the operating lever (1) using a push button (17) or similar, the support legs are swung upwards by spring force and lie close to the crutch tube (lla). This means that the use of the crutch is not impaired by protruding parts when walking.
Der Seilzug (2) kann durch eine einfache Schlaufe (6) und ein Befestigungselement (7) verstellt und damit der Längenänderung der Krücke angepaßt werden.The cable (2) can be adjusted using a simple loop (6) and a fastening element (7) and can thus be adapted to the change in the length of the crutch.
