    摘要: Embodiments include a gait trainer device with multiple components and capable of being assembled by a user. The gait trainer may include a first side frame disposed diagonally relative to the ground, a second side frame parallel to the first side frame, a leaning cushion disposed at the end of the first side frame and the end of the second side frame and configured to support a user's weight, and a lower c-shaped frame extending perpendicularly from both the first joint and the second joint. These components among others may be assembled to create a gait trainer for use in assisting and increasing mobility.

    摘要: A device for assisting a medical walker user in transitioning from a sitting position to a standing position as the medical walker user attempts to access the medical walker because the device incorporates a platform base which becomes stabilized by placing the weight of the medical walker user on the platform base which in turn stabilizes the medical walker via each automatic movement restrictor assembly (AMRA) attached to the platform base because each AMRA automatically engages/captures each of the medical walker's two front axles as the medical walker's two front wheels impact each of the two AMRAs additionally such that the device will automatically move from a position of engagement with the medical walker's two front axles to a position of disengagement with the medical walker's two front axles when the medical walker along with the medical walker's two front wheels leave/exit the device's AMRAs.

    摘要: Walker including a frame, a movement enabling system on the frame that enables the frame to be moved along a surface, and a cueing system that generates audio and/or visual cues to enable a user of the walker to be guided in their forward movement of the walker. The cueing system includes a control unit that generates signals based on stored content relating to cue generation, at least one cue generator that generates the audio and/or visual cues based on the signals generated by the control unit, and a communications module coupled to the control unit and that receives via at least one communications frequency transmissions to set or modify the stored content. The control unit sets or modifies the stored content based on the transmissions received by the communications module.
