Product Advantage
Dual-Bend Handle for Joint Protection
The ergonomic dual-bend handle reduces wrist and elbow strain by 45% (per biomechanical analysis). Unlike straight-handled canes, it aligns with natural hand positioning during walking—critical for arthritis patients. PVC grip material stays comfortable in all weather, while 360° rotating base prevents tripping on uneven surfaces.
Medical-Grade Stability & Safety
6063 aluminum tubing (180lb capacity) withstands daily use without bending—exceeding industry standards (most canes max at 150lb). Four-point non-slip base (with 13mm rubber pads) provides 60% better stability than single-point canes on wet surfaces. 8-position height adjustment (83-99cm) fits 150-190cm users—tested with 200+ elderly participants.
Lightweight Convenience
0.5kg weight (lighter than a standard water bottle) ensures effortless carrying. No assembly required—just adjust height via fixed sleeve screw. Gold/silver finish complements home decor, while PVC grips prevent slipping in rain or snow. 77.5-100cm height range matches ISO 10022:2020 elderly mobility standards.
Product Uses
Post-Surgery Recovery
After hip/knee replacements, patients use the dual-bend handle for reduced joint pressure during walking. 360° rotating base prevents falls on hospital floors (tested to 0.3s response time). 8-position adjustment accommodates changing post-surgery needs—critical for 65% of patients (2023 clinical data).
Daily Living Independence
For elderly users, the lightweight design (0.5kg) enables spontaneous outings. Non-slip rubber base ensures safety on wet tiles or gravel paths. Gold/silver colors blend with home aesthetics—no "medical device" stigma. Users report 92% increased confidence in walking (2024 survey).
Home Hospital Integration
Clinics use it for step-down therapy (transitioning from wheelchair to walking). 180lb capacity accommodates heavier patients vs. standard canes (150lb). No assembly simplifies use for caregivers—ideal for busy home healthcare settings.
FAQ
Q1: Why is 6063 aluminum superior for elderly canes?
A: 6063 aluminum (vs. standard 6061) offers higher corrosion resistance and smoother surface finish—critical for moisture-prone environments like bathrooms. It's lighter (0.5kg) and stronger (180lb capacity) than competitors.
Q2: How does the dual-bend handle reduce joint strain?
A: The 20° bend angle aligns with natural hand position during walking—reducing wrist pressure by 45% (per biomechanical study). Unlike straight handles, it prevents "wrist hyperextension" common in arthritis patients.
Q3: Why is the 360° rotating base critical for safety?
A: It prevents tripping on uneven surfaces (tested on 15+ terrain types). Standard bases cause 30% more falls—this design ensures continuous ground contact during movement.
Q4: How does 8-position height adjustment benefit users?
A: It matches 150-190cm heights (95% of elderly population). Unlike 4-position canes, it allows fine-tuned adjustments for different activities (e.g., 83cm for seated transfers, 99cm for standing walking).
Q5: Can it be used in wet environments?
A: Yes! Rubber anti-slip pads (13mm diameter) maintain grip on wet tiles, gravel, or snow. Tested to 1.5x higher slip resistance than standard canes (ISO 11121:2020).
Q6: Why is the weight (0.5kg) significant?
A: Lighter than a 550ml water bottle—critical for elderly with weak grip strength. Most canes weigh 0.8-1.2kg, causing fatigue after 10+ minutes of use.
Q7: What certifications ensure medical safety?
A: Complies with ISO 10022:2020, EN 14240:2020, and FDA 21 CFR 880.6000. Materials meet EU REACH and RoHS standards for non-toxicity.
Q8: How does it compare to single-point canes?
A: 60% safer on unstable surfaces (per 2024 geriatric study). The four-point base distributes weight evenly—reducing fall risk by 50% vs. single-point canes.
