Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine KrückeThe invention relates to a crutch BeschreibungDescription

Eine Krücke, die durch ein Gelenk, angebracht in der Mitte der Krücke, auf die halbe Länge zusammenlegbar ist.A crutch that can be folded to half its length by means of a joint located in the middle of the crutch.

Problemproblem

Bisher auf dem Markt erhältliche Krücken lassen sich nur sehr umständlich verkleinern. So muss man den Mechanismus, der dazu dient, die Krücke an die Grosse des Benutzers anzupassen, dazu verwenden.Crutches currently available on the market are very difficult to make smaller. You have to use the mechanism that adjusts the crutch to the user's size.

Zum einen gibt es diese Möglichkeit mit Hilfe von Stiften, die durch kleine Löcher in das Rohr gedrückt werden müssen, um eine Verschiebung tätigen zu können, was aber eine sehr umständliche Art ist und auch keine Verkleinerung auf die Hälfte ermöglicht. Die durch eine Schraubung höhenverstellbare Gehhilfe hat den Nachteil, dass diese vom Gebraucher wieder punktgenau arretiert werden muss.One option is to use pins that have to be pushed through small holes in the tube in order to be able to move it, but this is a very cumbersome method and does not allow the tube to be reduced in size by half. The walking aid that is height-adjustable by means of a screw has the disadvantage that it has to be locked back into place by the user with pinpoint accuracy.

Eine Verkleinerung der Krücke auf die Hälfte ermöglicht dem Benutzer einen leichteren Transport bis dahin, dass sie auch in einem Rucksack, Koffer, auf dem Autositz, dem Fahrrad etc. ohne zu stören Platz findet.Reducing the size of the crutch by half allows the user to transport it more easily, to the point where it can fit in a backpack, suitcase, car seat, bicycle, etc. without causing any inconvenience.

Der in Anspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung liegt zugrunde, dass die Krücke schnellstmöglich auf die Hälfte zu verkleinem ist.The invention defined in claim 1 is based on the fact that the crutch can be reduced in size by half as quickly as possible.

Darüber hinaus gibt es auch Benutzer, die die Krücke nur zeitweise benötigen, z.B. nach einer längeren Wegstrecke, in schwierigem Gelände etc..In addition, there are also users who only need the crutch temporarily, e.g. after a long journey, in difficult terrain, etc.

Darstellung der ErfindungDescription of the invention

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel wird in Figur 1 und 2 erläutert. Es zeigen:An embodiment is explained in Figures 1 and 2. They show:

Figur 1 eine sich in der Mitte befindende Steckverbindung (1), die durch eineFigure 1 shows a centrally located plug connection (1) which is connected by a

Ziehfeder (2) fixiert ist. Ein Auseinanderziehen (3) der Steckverbindung ermöglicht ein hälftiges Zusammenklappen (4), wobei die Hälften durch die Feder weiterhin verbunden bleiben, während der untere Krückenteil in den oberen geklappt ist (5).Pull spring (2) is fixed. Pulling apart (3) the plug connection allows it to be folded in half (4), whereby the halves remain connected by the spring, while the lower part of the crutch is folded into the upper part (5).

Figur 2 ein sich in der Mitte befindliches Scharnier (5), fixiert durch eine Hülse (6), die den oberen und unteren Teil der Krücke durch eine Schraubung verbindet. Die Hülse kann hochgezogen werden (7), und der untere Krückenteil kann so in den oberen geklappt werden, wobei der Freiheitsgrad des Gelenkes eine Verkantung am Handgriff vorbei ermöglicht (8).Figure 2 shows a hinge (5) in the middle, fixed by a sleeve (6) that connects the upper and lower parts of the crutch with a screw connection. The sleeve can be pulled up (7) and the lower part of the crutch can be folded into the upper part, whereby the degree of freedom of the joint allows it to be tilted past the handle (8).
