Abstract

An automatic turning deceleration device for a mobility aid has a fixing base, a fixing unit, a turning sensor, a turning base, a linking unit, and a control module. The turning sensor is rotatably mounted on a side of the fixing unit. The turning base is mounted around the turning sensor. The linking unit is combined on the turning base and abuts the turning sensor. The control module is mounted on a side of the turning base and links between the fixing base and the turning base. Therefore, the automatic turning deceleration device can provide a stable and steady decelerating effect for the mobility aid.

Claims

1. An automatic turning deceleration device for a mobility aid having:

a fixing base;

a fixing unit;

a turning sensor rotatably mounted on a side of the fixing unit;

a turning base mounted around the turning sensor;

a linking unit combined on the turning base and abutting the turning sensor; and

a control module mounted on a side of the turning base and linking between the fixing base and the turning base.

2. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the control module has

a main control pad mounted on a side of the fixing base;

and

a secondary control pad mounted on the side of the turning base and engaged with the main control pad.

3. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 2, wherein the fixing unit is formed as a fixing plate.

4. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 3, wherein the main control pad is mounted on the fixing base by two bolts.

5. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 4, wherein the secondary control pad is mounted on the turning base by two bolts.

6. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 5, wherein the main control pad is mounted on a bottom of the fixing base, and the secondary control pad is mounted on a bottom of the turning base.

7. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the main control pad is formed in a curved shape.

8. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 2, wherein

the main control pad has multiple first engaging teeth;

the secondary control pad has multiple second engaging teeth; and

the first engaging teeth are engaged with the second engaging teeth.

9. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 3, wherein

the main control pad has multiple first engaging teeth;

the secondary control pad has multiple second engaging teeth; and

the first engaging teeth are engaged with the second engaging teeth.

10. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 4, wherein

the main control pad has multiple first engaging teeth;

the secondary control pad has multiple second engaging teeth; and

the first engaging teeth are engaged with the second engaging teeth.

11. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 5, wherein

the main control pad has multiple first engaging teeth;

the secondary control pad has multiple second engaging teeth; and

the first engaging teeth are engaged with the second engaging teeth.

12. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 6, wherein

the main control pad has multiple first engaging teeth;

the secondary control pad has multiple second engaging teeth; and

the first engaging teeth are engaged with the second engaging teeth.

13. The automatic turning deceleration device as claimed in claim 7, wherein

the main control pad has multiple first engaging teeth;
