Description

TECHNICAL AREA The present utility model solution concerns the field of everyday articles for elderly people and relates in particular to a multifunctional support bar for fall prevention for seniors. TECHNICAL BACKGROUND Given the increasing aging of the global population, everyday safety for older adults has become a key societal challenge. Walking aids, a common assistive device, no longer meet today's demands for safety and intelligent features in their traditional forms and functions. Most walking aids on the market are limited to basic mechanical support. While some models attempt to integrate lighting or simple alarm indicators, functionality remains limited, and the various safety aspects are often incompletely integrated. Wearable devices with fall detection capabilities, while possessing powerful back-end systems, are not specifically designed for walking and do not integrate effectively with the walking aid—the most commonly used physical assistive device for older adults. This results in practical problems such as discomfort, inadequate protection, and a confusing user experience. CONTENT OF THE PRESENT APPLICATION To overcome the disadvantages of the existing technology, the present utility model solution provides a multifunctional support bar for fall prevention for elderly people, thus solving the problems described in the preceding technical background. To achieve the aforementioned objectives, the present utility model solution implements the following technical solution: A multifunctional support joint for elderly people, designed to prevent falls, and includes: Rod component; The main control module, which is attached to the walking stick module; An adjustment sensor module that is electrically connected to the main control module and serves to monitor the setting of the rod component. A distance sensor electrically connected to the main control module, used to detect obstacles in the foreground. as well as a wireless location communication module, which is electrically connected to the main control module and serves to collect location data and transmit data. Furthermore, the walking stick component includes a main shaft and a handle attached to the top of the shaft. Furthermore, the main control module and the module for the setting and orientation sensor are integrated inside the handle construction; a cover is attached to the top of the handle construction. Furthermore, the distance sensor module includes a control board and an integrated ultrasonic sensor. The upper side wall of the walking stick's main shaft has a mounting surface to which the control board is attached and which is surrounded by a protective housing. In addition, a sound window is provided on the protective cover along the detection direction of the ultrasonic sensor, through which one end of the ultrasonic sensor is passed and which is covered with a metal mesh. Furthermore, the settings sensor module includes a gyroscope sensor; the main control module uses data from this sensor and an integrated algorithm to detect when the user falls and, upon fall detection, automatically triggers the wireless location communication module to send an alert with location data. Additionally, the wireless location communication module includes at least one of the following modules integrated into the main control module: a GPS location module, a Beidou location module, or a cellular network connectivity module. In addition, a removable, non-slip leg piece is attached to the lower end of the main shaft of the walking stick. Furthermore, the system includes a battery to power the individual electrical components; this battery, as well as the integrated component, is integrated into the handle; the main control module has an integrated charging port, the connection of which extends to the end of the handle and is visible, in order to To enable the charging port connection. Furthermore, a screw hole is provided on the mounting surface, and on the guard The casing contains a correspondingly positioned through-hole. Compared to existing technologies, the present utility model solution offers a multifunctional support bar for fall prevention for elderly people with the following advantages: This invention features a distance sensor with ultrasonic sensors mounted on the side of the main pole of the walking frame, as well as a protective housing. In combination with a sound window and a metal mesh guard, the system ensures reliable detection of obstacles in the foreground while simultaneously providing protection. The posture sensor automatically detects falls using the main control module's algorithm and sends a position signal via the wireless location communication module, significantly improving emergency response capabilities. Integrating the wireless location communication module into the main control module reduces the number of connections and increases system reliability.
