20130199587 | CANE - A cane has a rectilinear, or approximately rectilinear, shaft, an upper end, including a handle for gripping and support, and a lower end provided with a ferrule having a non-slip function. The ferrule has a widening in the form of a disc that is coaxial with the cane and is intended to form a lever that is able to allow recovery when a pressure is applied. The shaft and handle are made of a lightweight material, and the ferrule contains a ballast so as to move the center of gravity of the cane as close as possible to the lower end, while the ferrule has a convex end wall. | 08-08-2013 |
