Abstract

A personal mobility device includes a pair of rear legs and a pair of front legs pivotably connected to the rear legs via a pair of hubs. A handle, having a loop shape and including a grip portion, isslidably mounted within the pair of hubs so that the height of the grip can be adjusted. The hubs lock the front and rear legs in both an open (unfolded) and closed (folded) configuration. By slidingthe handle downward through the hubs, the legs are unlocked from the open position and allowed to pivot until locked in the closed configuration. Conversely, by sliding the handle upward through thehubs, the legs are unlocked from the closed position and allowed to pivot until locked in the open configuration.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application No. 62 / 351,097, filed June 16, 2016, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety as if fully set forth herein. Background technique [0003] The present invention relates to personal mobile devices. In particular, it relates to personal mobility devices that can be folded into a compact size for storage. [0004] Many individuals require mobility assistance, whether due to old age, illness, short-term injury, or other conditions. Known mobility aids include various crutches, walkers, transport chairs, wheelchairs, rollators, and the like. [0005] However, current mobile devices suffer from a number of disadvantages. For example, current walkers and rollators are bulky and can only be folded in one plane (eg, folded laterally like many wheelchairs, or forwardly like many rollators). This makes them difficult to transport. [0006] Another ...
