A convertible, multi-tasking cane and a method of using the cane is disclosed. The cane includes a tubular cane body defining an internal cavity, a handle attached to a first end of the tubular cane body, and a base support attached to a second end of the tubular cane body. The handle is converts to a seat upon actuation of a seat release mechanism. The cane further includes an umbrella, a rechargeable battery located in the internal cavity and above the second end of the tubular cane body, and a tubular insulating structure overlapping a portion of the tubular cane body. The tubular insulating structure houses a plurality of electronic devices.

A kit for converting a crutch to a cane, table, or bench is disclosed. The kit includes a crutch, a picker, a tabletop panel, a foot pad, and a seat cushion. The crutch includes an upper section connected to a middle section by a first pivot and a lower section connected to the middle section by a second pivot. The first pivot and the second pivot orient the sections of crutch to position the crutch in an upright crutch configuration, a table configuration, a cane configuration, or a bench configuration. The picker attaches to the upper section when the crutch is in the table configuration. The foot pad attaches to the picker to stabilize the picker upright. The tabletop panel attaches to the upper section when the crutch is in the table configuration. The seat cushion attaches to the lower section when the crutch is in the bench configuration.

Apparatus involved with but not limited to a telescoping trekking pole with attachments for holding in place sporting gear, including a rifle. A magnet may be disposed near the upper end of the trekking pole assembly and may magnetically receive a barrel of a rifle, while a protrusion extending laterally some distance down the trekking pole assembly may receive the butt of a stock of a rifle. Telescoping lengths of a trekking pole allow a trekking pole to be adjusted in length to accommodate a user's height and/or the length of a rifle to be held by a trekking pole, and for a trekking pole to be reduced in length for portability and storage. Additional elements, such as handles and rings, may be disposed on a trekking pole to allow additional surfaces for gripping or hanging additional sporting gear, respectively.

Various systems and methods relate to an adaptive chair system having (i) a stowed mode in which the members of the chair frame are contained within a compact flexible multi-function bag (MFB), and (ii) a deployed mode in which the MFB is adapted to releasably couple to an arm of the chair to provide a multipurpose accessory chamber. In an illustrative example, the MFB may, for example, fold in on itself in an accessory mode. The MFB may provide various utilities for hikers, for example, by providing a case to receive an inflatable bladder so as to form a pillow. The MFB may receive a thermal liner adapted to maintain, for example, food or beverage temperature. Various embodiments may advantageously provide a rugged, water resistant MFB system in an ultralight form factor that serves as a multipurpose accessory (e.g., to store items), yet provides a compact, adaptive chair frame containment.

The New Design for Crutches and Sitting Device is an improvement of the basic crutch to provide needed support to ameliorate potential injuries and improve ambulation for persons suffering from injured lower limbs, lumbar region or other injuries and who frequently required using crutches for mobility. However, crutches require more energy from the user than merely walking, and frequently, a crutch user may require rest. Prior crutch systems have not provided a convenient way to provide the user with such rest. The current invention fulfills two functions: (i) providing improved walking aid for those recovering from orthopedic surgery of the spine and lower extremities—as well as those who suffer from permanent disability from the spine and lower limbs; and (ii) improved sitting aid for those recovering from orthopedic surgery of the spine and lower extremities—as well as those who suffer from permanent disability of the spine and lower limbs.

A system, such as a camping or lounging system, includes a first spreader bar and a second spreader bar. The system also includes a hammock-tent defining a first end sleeve and a second end sleeve, wherein the first spreader bar is configured to be removably inserted into the first end sleeve and the second spreader bar is configured to be removably inserted into the second end sleeve. The system also includes at least one bracket, wherein at least one of the first spreader bar and the second spreader bar is configured to be detachably coupled with the at least one bracket to form a chair framework. The system may be deployable in a hammock-tent mode or a chair mode.

A foldable chair, comprises a foldable chair frame (10) and a chair seat (1) made of a flexible material; the chair frame (10) comprising an X-shaped left support frame (101), an X-shaped right support frame (102) connected through a connecting crossbar (3), the chair seat (1) is connected to the chair frame (10) through a plurality of connecting pieces; a detachable pole (2) extends from top to bottom of the chair frame (10), and the connecting crossbar (3) has two first through holes (34) for the poles (2) to pass through; correspondingly, the connecting crossbar (3) has two second through holes (33) for a plurality of support tubes (100) to pass through; each pole (2) and the corresponding support tube (100) forms the X-shaped left or right support frame. This chair has the advantages of simple and reasonable structure, easy installation and disassembly, simple manufacture process and low cost, and is especially suitable for carrying around when traveling.
