A package (200) for a selectively separable quad cane assembly can include an enclosed rectangular box (500), with a front face (201) defining an aperture (224) that is centrally located along a height (225) of the front face and offset from a medial line (227) defined by the front face. An upper face (205) can define a two-sided aperture (222) at a corner of the upper face, while a lower face (206) defines a peninsular aperture (221) that is centrally located along an edge (223) of the lower face. In the package, the aperture can concentrically circumscribe an a cane-receiving conduit (125) of a quadspider (221) of the cane, while an apex (501) of a gooseneck (108) of the cane is aligned with the two-sided aperture of the upper face and the lower leg is aligned with the peninsular aperture of the lower face.

A portable light weight apparatus (PLWA) that allows a user with limited mobility to accomplish tasks such as repairs and inspections around and under the house, RV, boat or vehicle that are difficult for a user with mobility limitations to do without the apparatus, beginning with a first side that is adjustable of approximately 6 to 12 inches from a floor surface, a second side that is adjustable of approximately 12 to 18 inches from a floor surface, a third side that is adjustable of approximately 18 to 28 inches from a floor surface, and comprised of handrails on the surface of the apparatus, making it easy for a user to grip anywhere on the apparatus for easy gripping for the user to either raise themselves up from the floor or lower themselves to the floor, utilizing one of the apparatuses sides at a time, by turning the apparatus over to one of its multiple sides of varying length from the floor.

A wading stick is provided with an expanding elastomer support that prevents the stick from sinking into mud or other soft surfaces. The distal end of the support expands away from the stick when it contacts the soft surface. The support circumference increases in response to contact with soft surface and the increased circumference prevents the stick and support from sinking.

The present invention provides a foldable stick (10), in particular a sports stick (10), comprising a plurality of stick segments (12, 14, 16) and at least one tensioning mechanism (18, 20), the stick (10) being adjustable between an assembled configuration in which all stick segments (12, 14, 16) are joined aligned axially with one another, and a disassembled configuration in which the stick segments (12, 14, 16) are detached from one another and can be folded together, the tensioning mechanism (18, 20) is adapted to pretension the stick segments (12, 14, 16) into the assembled configuration of the stick (10).

Disclosed is an assembly that comprises a user mobility device and a display package. The user mobility device comprises a handle region covered by a handle cover. The display package provided with a hanging panel having a hang tab region that extends past the handle region of the user mobility device and having a hanging aperture and a boundary that defines an open region proximal to handle region of the user mobility device to permit manual grasping of the handle region without the necessity to remove the user mobility device from the display package.

Systems and methods for transitioning a portable weather canopy between at least two states are described, where a first state provides flexible shaft portions that can be worn on a user's body or wrapped about an object and a second state reversibly couples the flexible shaft portions to provide a rigid shaft to support the canopy. In an aspect, a collapsible, portable weather canopy includes, but is not limited to, a foldable canopy; and a collapsible shaft coupled to the foldable canopy.
