BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
? Many individuals suffer the lack mobility at some point in their lives because of the age and medical conditions like Arthritis. As a result, such individuals requires some type of mechanical device assist in most of the day to day mobility tasks. Mobility devices are already available in the market includes Walkers, wheel chairs and ordinary canes. Conventional canes, walker only allows the purpose of providing stability and supporting the user’s weight partially during walking on plain surfaces only.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
? The current invention pertains to a multipurpose adjustable that can be height adjusted for a variety of users for ascending and descending the stairs, standing up, sitting down, and moving. Furthermore, the gripping and knee-supporting handles are foldable, making the Multipurpose adjustable cane easy to transport and store.
? The cane's base is beneficial for ascending and descending stairs, while the knee-supporting handles are utilized to make sitting and standing easier. The weight of the user is supported by the base of the Multipurpose adjustable cane. Before proceeding up the stair, the user should set the Multipurpose adjustable cane next to the stair and then step onto the platform.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION:
? This invention relates to the field of mechanical engineering. In particular, assists people while stepping up and down the staircase as well as sitting and standing.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS:
? The following detailed description, considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, should be consulted for a complete understanding of the invention. A Multipurpose Adjustable Cane indicated in Figure 1a, illustrates the front view and Figure 1b illustrates isometric view of the Multipurpose adjustable cane.
? Detailed drawing is indicated in Figure 1a in which lower pipe is useful in the height-adjustable mechanism. Part 3 shows the base of the multipurpose adjustable cane, which is used to support the user's weight while standing over it. Part 4, the F-shaped device used to connect 6 and 9. Part 5 shows the T-shaped device used to hinge the 9 using Nut and Bolt. The L-shaped pipe for the connection of 7 as shown in Figure 1a. Figure 1a depicts the handle, which is used to grasp the item in one's hand. Figure 1a and Figure 1b displays the Stand, which is firmly attached at four corners of bottom of the base to support the cane and assembly's complete weight. Part 9 displays the supporting handles for providing assistance at three locations. Part 10 is the upper pipe which has contains the button for the height-adjustable mechanism. Part 11 involves the use of nut and bolt for the hinged connection between the fixtures 4 and 5 to the handle and supporting handles. According to one embodiment of the invention, there is a cane that is made up of several parts, the 2 is firmly connected to the 1. The 2 consists of multiple holes for a height-adjustable mechanism using the clamp as a button to operate as respective position according to the user’s convenience.
? The upper pipe has 5 and 4 which are connected to 9 and 7 respectively. The 9 is responsible for the right angle folding movement for the knee supporting mechanism to assist the user while sitting and standing by placing the 9 in front of their knees. While using the 9 the users may place their hands at 7 and supporting handles to enhanced support and stability. F shape fixture and T shape fixture are hinged to 9 and 7 respectively.
? While certain specific embodiments have been disclosed for illustrative purposes, those skilled in the art will consider multiple modifications that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the following claims, and it is to be clearly understood that the foregoing descriptive matter is to be interpreted merely as illustrative of the invention and not as a limitation.
