Claim

Elastic sleeve 1 is slipped over the cane to hold a pen led flash light 2. Elastic sleeve can be raised or lowered on the walking cane 3 to adjust the diameter of light 4. This will leave one hand free when having to use a cane rather then caring flashlight in the other hand. Keeping the led flash light 2 low will make the light 4 less intrusive on other members at night. The led pen light 2 can be turned off and on with a switch that is in one end of the pen led light 2. The sleeve can remain on the walking cane and the led pen flash light 2 can be inserted when needed.

Description:
ELASTIC SLEEVE FOR ATTACHING A LIGHTING SOURCE TO A WALKING CANE

Specification

Elastic sleeve 1 made from woven expandable elastic material about 7.62 mm high by 80 mm long sown together along the 7.62 mm side to form a tube about 25 mm in diameter. Instead of sewing it could be glued, fastened together by velcro or extruded, elastic sleeve 1 would slip over existing walking cane 3 and can remain on the cane. Existing pen led flash light 2 with switch at one end is inserted as need for night use or in dark places where light is required. Elastic sleeve 1 can be sold separately, packaged together with pen led flash light 2 or packaged together with walking cane 3.
