Publication number: 20240058941Abstract: A telescopic rod device includes an outer tube including adjustment holes, an inner tube having a through hole, an actuator unit mounted inside the inner tube and has an actuating portion, and an adjustment control unit having a restraining member that has a restraining portion, a resilient member, and a lug connected with the resilient member and protruding from the through hole to engage with an adjustment hole. The resilient member biases the lug to extend out of the through hole and engage an adjustment hole, and when the actuator unit moves relative to the inner tube, the actuating portion of the actuator unit actuates movement of the restraining portion, and the restraining member acts on the resilient member so that the lug disengages the adjustment hole.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Applicant: STEP2GOLD CO., LTD.Inventor: Chih-Ting Pao

Publication number: 20240008605Abstract: A folding crutch chair includes a pivot base unit, a primary leg unit, at least two support leg units, a positioning unit and a seating unit. The leg units are mounted on the pivot base unit. The positioning unit is mounted on the primary leg unit, and has a mounting seat and a positioning member. The positioning member has a guiding slope surface. A seating member of the seating unit is shiftable between a collapsed position and a seated position. During the operation from the seated position to the collapsed position, the seating member is actuated to move the guiding slope surface to generate a retention force for keeping the seating member unmoved relative to the positioning member so as to facilitate the folding operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2023Publication date: January 11, 2024Applicant: STEP2GOLD CO., LTD.Inventor: Chih-Ting PAO
