A cantilevered support rod is coupled to the at least one hinge member assembly and a cylindrical container member with a container fastener directly coupled thereto and a portion of the cantilevered support rod disposed and compressively retained thereon, the bottom wall and the sidewall defining a cylindrical container cavity.
Dual receptacle carrier
Disclosed is a dual-receptacle carrier that is generally configured for attachment to a rollator or walker and that is configured to retain either a beverage or a mobile device, such as a cellular telephone. The device comprises a body, a base, and first and second opposing retention arm portions that are configured as a receptacle for a beverage. The first and second opposing retention arm portions and base include recesses that define a receptacle for an electronic device.
Rollator
A rolling walker comprises a frame, a seat supported by that frame, and a backrest supported by the frame. By one approach the backrest is configured to selectively move between a first position that provides back support for a person sitting in the seat facing in a forward direction and a second position that provides back support for a person sitting in the seat facing in a rearward direction. If desired, this backrest can be comprised of a material (such as a memory foam material) that biases the backrest towards that first position when the backrest is in the first position and that biases the backrest towards the second position when the backrest is in the second position.
Portable human exoskeleton system
A portable human exoskeleton system includes a pelvis module, a leg module and a foot module. The pelvis module includes a bendable member and a pelvis module connector. The foot module includes a foot module connector. The leg module includes: a femur module detachably coupled to the pelvis module connector; a tibia module detachably coupled to the foot module connector; and a knee joint component having at least two linkages with different lengths wherein each linkage is pivotally coupled to the femur module and the tibia module. Weight above the hip of the user is exerted on the pelvis module, and transferred to the leg module and the foot module. The exoskeleton system is easily disassembled and carried, and can be worn inside attire without affecting appearance of the user.
Crutch Accessory Set
The invention relates to a crutch accessory set for two crutches, which comprises: in duplicate, a single- or multi-part cover by which an arm guiding portion and a gripping portion of a crutch can be completely or partially covered, and a container arrangement to accommodate small parts. The container arrangement is composed of two individual containers which can be releasably connected to one another by means of connecting elements, wherein, if the individual containers are separated from one another, in each case one of the two individual containers can be releasably fastened by means of the connecting element to a respective one of the two covers, for which purpose corresponding connecting elements are arranged on each cover. The invention further relates to a kit for persons with impaired mobility, comprising two crutches (forearm crutches), and to a crutch accessory set according to the invention.
Portable urinal mounting assembly

The assistive device provides the means for transferring of weight from a person to the ferrule. The storage mechanism, has a frame, a plurality of sides, a bottom and a top. The storage mechanism provides an area storing items while using the assistive device. The device has a coupling means that has a first clip and a second clip. The first clip is coupled to the second clip. Further, the first clip is securely coupled to the assistive device and the second clip is securely coupled to the storage mechanism. The storage mechanism may have a strap, preferably Velcro, that can be used to securely couple the bottom of the storage mechanism to the shaft of the assistive device.
Light-weight walker
An improved wheel for a mobility apparatus designed is disclosed herein. The wheel conforms to obstacles in the ground, creating a smoother walking experience. The inner web of a tire of the wheel preferably consists of polygonal reliefs offset from each other over multiple layers in a radially symmetric pattern to create a web which naturally compresses to absorb shock from obstacles. The tire's inner core preferably consists of a hexagonal membrane that extends parallel to the axel of the tire and extends out of each side of the wheel such that it is visible.
