ABSTRACT:
A cane supporting apparatus is made from a light weight piece of material which has an upright contact surface having a width which is several times the diameter of the cane. Generally perpendicular to the upright contact surface is a generally horizontal contact surface, and both of these surfaces are made to have a high coefficient of friction. In the horizontal contact surface, the apparatus is provided with a through-hole which is dimensioned to receive the cane with a slight amount of resistance. The apparatus may therefore be slipped over the cane with the horizontal contact surface generally perpendicular to the length of the cane. The cane may then be supported against a wall or similar surface by means of the upright contact surface of the apparatus or with respect to a table surface by means of the contact surface of the apparatus. In a preferred embodiment the apparatus also includes a hollow insertion member which is inserted over the end of the cane and includes a high friction lower contacting surface. The insertion member is constructed to be stored in the through hole.
