Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the priority benefit of Taiwan application serial no. 95135351, filed on Sep. 25, 2006. All disclosure of the Taiwan application is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a cane, and more particularly, to a multi-functional cane.[0004]2. Description of Related Art[0005]The cane is an effective and convenient tool for walkers. For example, the cane helps to ensure the safety of climbers or people walking in the countryside. Furthermore, the cane is an important tool for people who have trouble in walking.[0006]Conventionally, the cane is designed to be a mechanical structure, which focuses on helping people move around, without multi-functional applications.[0007]For example, if a climber is attacked by an animal on the mountain, the climber can only swing the conventional mechanical cane, which merely provides some basic defense. ...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0009]The present invention is directed to providing a multi-functional cane, which considers various safety requirements, effectively improves the effect of the cane, and thus providing the safety and first aid effects conveniently and effectively. Furthermore, the multi-functional cane provides the remote Mayday function.

[0011]The multi-functional cane of the present invention combines a plurality of safety functions, which at least provides better protection for the user when being used. In addition, the multi-functional cane uses the wireless communication device to seek for remote help when necessary, thus effectively reducing the injury of the user. Moreover, the cane is convenient for the user to carry along and use, and causes no inconvenience.

Problems solved by technology

If a climber is caught in a mountain disaster, the conventional cane cannot provide the Mayday function.

Similarly, for a person who has trouble in walking, the conventional mechanical cane only helps him move around, but does not provide the function of asking for help.

Therefore, the conventional cane merely focuses on providing mechanical support, which is limited in terms of function.
