Abstract:
1. A two-in-one cane having a predetermined length along its longitudinal axis and being selectively separable into two sections, wherein each one of said sections is independently usable as a cane, and wherein said sections are capable of being united into a single assembly forming a single cane, comprising: a) a first section comprising a first elongated component having a length substantially equal to said predetermined length, wherein one end of the first elongated component is formed as a first handle with a substantially flat region and a portion that extends substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cane, and wherein an opposite end of the first elongated component is formed as a first tip; b) a second section comprising a second elongated component having a length substantially equal to said predetermined length, wherein one end of the second elongated component is formed as a second handle with a substantially flat region and a portion that extends substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cane, and wherein an opposite end of the second elongated component is formed as a second tip; and c) a plurality of connectors spaced apart from each other along the longitudinal axis of the cane that removably secure said first section to and abreast of said second section in generally parallel relationship to one another, wherein the substantially flat region of the first handle and the substantially flat region of the second handle are in abutment with each other when said first section is secured to and abreast of said second section, wherein the plurality of connectors are configured so a user of the cane can separate said first section from said second section by incrementally separating the plurality of connectors along the longitudinal axis of the cane so that the first handle can be separated from the second handle while the first tip and second tip remain abreast of one another.
