To provide a walking support device for assisting the walking of elderly people, handicapped people and the like.SOLUTION: The walking support apparatus 1 includes a handrail 3 fixed to a floor plate 2 and a floor plate 2. The handrail portion 3 includes a pair of support posts 4 standing upright from the floor plate 2, a first handrail bar 5 whose both end portions 51 are fixed to the post 4, and a second handrail bar 5 on the opposite side from the first handrail bar 5 to the floor plate 2 side And a second handrail bar 6 projecting from the second handrail. The handrail 3 is provided in pairs spaced apart from both sides 21 of the floor plate 2. The lower end portion 44 of the outer pipe 41 of the support column 4 is fixed to a first reinforcing member 8 extending parallel to the axial direction X of the first handrail rod 6. The first reinforcing member 8 is secured to the surface 23 of the floor plate 2 while being spaced inward by a given dimension from both sides 21 of the floor plate 2. A second reinforcing member is provided on the back surface 24 of the floor plate 2. The first reinforcing member 8 and the second reinforcing member are arranged so that end portions 81 of the floor plate 2 are overlapped with each other. The first reinforcing member 8 and the second reinforcing member are connected to each other via the floor plate 2, and form a substantially rectangular shape.(FIG.【課題】高齢者や障害者等の歩行を補助する歩行支援装置を提供する。【解決手段】歩行支援装置1は、床板2および床板2に固定される手摺り部3を備える。手摺り部3は、床板2から起立する一対の支柱4と、その両端部51が支柱4に固定される第1手摺り棒5と、第1手摺り棒5から床板2側とは反対側へと突出する第2手摺り棒6とを備える。手摺り部3は、床板2の両側21に離間して一対設けられる。支柱4の外管41の下端部44は、第1手摺り棒6の軸方向Xに対して平行に延びる第1補強部材8に固定される。第1補強部材8は、床板2の両側21から所与寸法内側に離間して、その表面23に固定される。床板2の裏面24には第2補強部材を備える。第1補強部材8と第2補強部材とは、床板2を挟んでその端部81が互いに重なるように配置される。第1補強部材8と第2補強部材とは、床板2を介して互いに連結し、これらで略矩形を形成する。【選択図】図1
