Safety walking stick

Abstract

A safety walking stick includes: a stick body; a lower base, which has a top surface formed with a receiving trough; an internal holder, which is fixedly mounted in the receiving trough of the lower base; a spring, which has an end coupled to the stick body and an opposite end coupled to the internal holder. The stick body and the internal holder are spaced from each other with a gap defining a predetermined distance therebetween. The gap provides a free space allowing for and accommodating deformation of the spring so that in a condition that the stick body is set in an inclined state with respect to the ground, the lower base is allowed to keep a maximum contact area with respect to the ground in order to achieve an effect of safety for skidproofness

1 . A safety walking stick, comprising:
 a stick body;   a lower base, which is formed of an elastic material and has a top surface in which a receiving trough is formed;   an internal holder, which is fixedly mounted in the receiving trough of the lower base; and   a spring, which has one end coupled to the stick body and an opposite end coupled to the internal holder such that the stick body and the internal holder are spaced from each other by a gap that defines a predetermined distance between the stick body and the internal holder, wherein a portion of the spring is located in the gap between the stick body and the internal holder and is deflectable to change an angular position of the stick body relative to the lower base;   wherein the stick body is resiliently supported on the lower base by the spring and a tubular portion of the elastic material of the lower base that extends from a bottom of the lower base and circumferentially surrounds the stick body and the spring, such that the stick body is angularly movable with respect to the lower base through elastic deformation of both the spring and the tubular portion of the elastic material of the lower body.   
     
     
         2 . The safety walking stick according to  claim 1 , wherein the lower base and the internal holder are integrally formed with each other as a unitary structure. 
     
     
         3 . The safety walking stick according to  claim 1  further comprising a handle, wherein the stick body having an upper end formed with a top opening and the hand comprises a handgrip and a projection extending from a lower side of the handgrip, the projection being insertable into the top opening of the stick body to combine the handle to the upper end of the stick body. 
     
     
         4 . The safety walking stick according to  claim 1 , wherein the stick body has a lower end that is received in the receiving trough of the lower base and the lower base has a bottom surface that comprises a skidding-resistant pattern formed thereon. 
     
     
         5 . The safety walking stick according to  claim 1 , wherein the stick body has a lower end formed with a bottom opening and the internal holder comprises a coupling bore formed therein, wherein said one end of the spring is inserted into and fixed in the bottom opening of the stick body and said opposite end of the spring is inserted into and fixed in the coupling bore of the internal holder.
