To receive a weight of a user in a taking one's ground on period in a state of dispersing the weight to a part for supporting a thigh and a part on which a foot is mounted, according to a walking period, for reducing a load to a knee and applying a load to a sole for acquiring feeling of walking and a walking balance.SOLUTION: There is provided a walking support tool 10 for supporting walking comprising: a first link part 15 supported to a thigh and receives a load； a second link part 25 provided along a lower leg, and has a ground part 75 which is grounded； a link connection part 60 for connecting the first and second link parts and allowing rotation； a stopper member 100 for fixing a folding angle of a knee to a set prescribed angle in a taking one's ground on period between the first and second link parts； and a foot mount table 68 for receiving a load and on which a foot of a knee side folded to a set prescribed angle and fixed, is mounted, above the ground part. An elastic member 70 is arranged between the ground part and the foot mount table, therefore the first link part and the foot mount table disperse the load applied to the ground part for supporting.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 12【課題】歩行周期に合わせて立脚時には使用者の体重を、大腿を支持する部分と足を載置する部分とで分散して受けるようにして、膝への負担を軽減する一方足裏にも荷重をかけ歩行の感覚と歩行バランスを得る。【解決手段】歩行を支援する歩行支援具１０であって、大腿に支持され荷重を受ける第１リンク部１５と、下腿に沿って設けられ接地する接地部７５を有する第２リンク部２５と、第１リンク部と第２リンク部とを連結し回動を許容するリンク連結部６０と、第１リンク部と第２リンク部の間で立脚期において膝の折り曲げ角度を設定された所定角度に固定するストッパ部材１００と、接地部の上方で、設定された所定角度に折り曲げられて固定される膝側の足を載せて荷重を受ける足載置台６８を備え、接地部と足載置台の間に弾性部材７０を配置して第１リンク部と足載置台とが前記接地部に掛かる荷重を分散して支持する。【選択図】 図１２
