[0087] In the present invention, relates to a motion-relieving intelligent walking stick (1) which meets the above-mentioned requirements, removes all disadvantages and adds some additional advantages.

[0088] In this detailed explanation that the innovation of the invention is explained only by examples which do not have any limiting effect for better understanding of the subject. Accordingly, in the following description and drawings, the invention is associated that is made up of main parcels including the upper body (1.1.2) forming the upper body and the lower body elements forming the lower body; with the aim of positioning the hand correctly in the way of the visually impaired user, the with sensors (1.1.16), which contain technological elements such as soft-grip upper gripping surface and the lower gripping surface (1.1.3), touch mouse (1.1.4), vibration motors (1.1.5) an smart module (1) that allows the user 1.1 freedom of movement, comprising a folding bar (1) forming the stick portion of the movement-releasing smart walking stick (1.2) which can be replaced by a snap-fit method, with the motion-liberating smart walking stick (1) that allows the visually impaired user to easily, safely and comfortably at the desired times, which increases the freedom of movement, to navigate with location info, to detect and protect the obstacles to be plowed in front of the movement, and to maintain a more ergonomic life them by eliminating their technological requirements and structural elements that bring about this mechanism are explained.

[0089] The upper body (1.1.1) and lower body (1.1.2) shown in FIG. 5 are located in the smart module (1.1)

[0090] In addition, the intelligent module (1.1) has soft-handed upper grip surfaces (1.1.3) and lower grip surfaces (1.1.4) for the purpose of providing a soft hand to the user of the visually impaired and to provide a proper hand positioning.

[0091] In FIG. 8, the lateral vibration surface (1.1.4.1) on the lower gripping surface (1.1.4) in the intelligent mode (1.1) can be seen.

[0092] The lateral vibration surface (1.1.4.1) is smooth and the vibrations performed by the vibration motors on both sides of the intelligent module (1.1) transmit to the contacting hand of the user.

[0093] Vibrating motors (1.1.5) are vibrating with movement from the sensor (1.1.16).

[0094] Vibration motors (1.1.5) are mounted on vibration drums (1.1.2.2) located on both sides of the lower body (1.1.2).

[0095] Vibration drums (1.1.2.2) are connected o the lower body.

[0096] (1.1.2) This ensures that the generated vibrations are only transferred to the lateral vibration surface. (1.1.4.1)

[0097] In FIG. 3 and FIG. 6 the touch mouse positioned (1.1.7) on the upper gripping surface of the smart module, can be encountered.

[0098] Thanks to the finger movements of the visually impaired user has a communication module (1.1.12.1) that enables the control of mobile devices, via the touch mouse (1.1.7).

[0099] The communication module can be (1.1.12.1) bluetooth, wifi, RFID or NIR.

[0100] With the button (1.1.6) located on the lower gripping surface (1.1.4), the touching mouse (1.1.7) can be activated or deactivated.

[0101] The button (1.1.6) is located in the buttonhole (1.1.2.7) located on the lower body. In FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, the technological elements on the circuit board (1.1.12) can be observed.

[0102] On the top part of the circuit board (1.1.12) communication module (1.1.12.1) providing control on the mobile devices and next to the speaker (1.1.12.2) which provides sound for directing the visually impaired user are positioned; whereas on the bottom part of the circuit board (1.1.12), a compass (1.1.12.3) providing location and direction information to the visually impaired user and an accelerometer (1.1.12.4) providing the acceleration of the visually impaired user are positioned. In FIG. 8, a sensor (1.1.16) located in the sensor enclosure (1.1.1.1) which is protected around by a sensor screen (1.1.18) made of impermeable material, positioned on the top of the upper body (1.1.1) and sensor framework (1.1.17) is seen.

[0103] Sensor (1.1.16) is a device for sensing the presence of obstacles in the effective sensor area of the motion-free intelligent walking stick (1) in the visually impaired user's path and for generating vibrations.

[0104] The sensor (1.1.16) can also be used as an ultrasonic sensor.

[0105] In FIG. 9, the tail cap made of elastomer material covering the tail portion of the intelligent module (1.1) (1.1.14) can be seen.

[0106] The upper body and the lower body are fixed by the mounting screw on the lower body mounting screw housing, the mounting screw is held on the inner surfaces of the upper body mounting screw recess positioned on the lower portion of the sensor housing in the upper body via the lower body mounting screw recess.

[0107] The tail cap (1.1.14) is passed to the tail section and the upper body and the lower body (1.1.2) are provided to be fixed.

[0108] In FIG. 4, the microphone housing (1.1.2.3) and the wrist strap housing (1.1.2.5) located in the tail of the lower body (1.1.2) can be seen.

[0109] When the microphone (1.1.9) is mounted on the microphone socket, the Wrist strap

[0110] (1.1.15) is mounted on the Wrist strap (1.1.2.5) section.

[0111] The wrist strap (1.1.15) facilitates the retention of the motion-liberating wrist (1).

[0112] Tail Wrist strap housing on the tail cover and tail microphone holder is where the bracelet and microphone are inserted in the tailgate, and it is produced in a smaller diameter to ensure that these parts are leakproof.

[0113] FIG. 9 shows the LED (1.1.8) is connected to the ledge (1.1.1.2) on the bottom of the LED socket (1.1.1.5) located on the upper body (1.1.1) using the led gasket (1.1.10).

[0114] Thanks to the light that it spreads the LED (1.1.8) on the upper body (1.1.1) provides night vision.

[0115] The direction of the LED radiation, which is the radiation field emitted by the LED (1.1.8), is shown in FIG. 7.

[0116] In FIG. 9 there can be seen the power supply socket on the tail (1.1.11) part of the lower body, the power supply socket on which the power supply ropes (1.1.14) and the power supply socket (1.1.2.6) which covers the power supply socket (1.1.14.1) on the tailgate.

[0117] By producing the power source lid (1.1.14.1) in the elastomeric structure, sealing is also intended in this region.

[0118] In FIG. 9, the power supply (1.1.11) and the circuit board (1.1.12), which are the other electronic parasers in the intelligent module (1.1), can be seen.

[0119] The power supply (1.1.11) energizes the entire system ie the intelligent module (1.1), and can be battery-powered.

[0120] The folding wand (1.2) shown in FIG. 8 forms one of the two main parts of the movement-releasing intelligent wand (1).

[0121] In case of any damage, it can be removed by turning it counterclockwise by means of the swivel fixture (1.2.4) in the up part and can be fitted in place by turning clockwise inwards from the nose opening (1.1.1.4) and so (1.2.4) allows the folding walking stick (1.2) to be changed when requested.

[0122] The stick fixture (1.2.4), is mounted on the rack fixture slot which is located on the lower body (1.1.2) passing through the nose opening (1.1.1.4) above the upper body, (1.1.1)

[0123] The folding wand (1.2) can be folded from the joint points (1.2.3)

[0124] The elastic string (1.2.5) k in the wand fixture (1.2.4) and wand module (1.2.1), which has been passed to the wand upper mini-module (1.2.2) terminates at the upper end of the fold,

[0125] Elastic twine (1.2.5) serves as a link between them folding wand and intelligent module, unused folding times and said movement allowing the intelligent walking stick to stand together.

[0126] The swivel up (1.2.6) located at the lower end of the folding bar (.2) is produced with the aim of minimizing friction on the ground and enabling the visually impaired user to economically use the motion-liberating wrist (1) on the floor.
