They have a large basket, comfortable handles, and an integrated brake lever that is designed to prevent accidental activation. They are also constructed of lightweight materials to allow for ease of handling.

The traditional rollators weigh more and don't support themselves when folded. This makes them difficult to transport or store.

To do this, you need to remove the basket from the frame and pull up the crossbar. This will reveal a pair of release mechanisms on each side. After that, press the release mechanisms, and push the frame sides together until the walking device shrinks to its smallest size.

The locking assembly is attached to a support arm on top which is mostly horizontal, 218 which joins two front and rear tubular legs that are largely vertical. Releasably connected to the ends of the front and rear tubular legs are tubular leg extensions telescoping in 226 and 228, respectively. Telescoping extensions are able to be turned between an unlocked and locked position to adjust the height of the rolling aid.

When the leg extensions are in the proper place when they are in the proper position, a non-sliding grip is connected to the end of the lever. The housing is attached to the actuating lever by an extension piece that extends away and a recess that is sized to accept the extension piece. The extension piece and recessive piece provide an axis around which the actuating lever can be rotated.

When the telescoping leg segments are in the correct position the locking mechanism is activated a snap button and biasing spring (not shown). This arrangement allows the user to easily engage and disengage the mechanism that folds for easy storage and transportation of the walking aid.

The Locking Mechanism

When the user presses on the hand brakes the pin actuating spout depresses which causes the side frame to turn into a folded state.

This kind of device has one issue: the actuating handle must be held with one hand while trying to push the plunger that is pin-actuated. This can be a problem for people with limited dexterity or strength of hand. The present invention solves this issue by providing the locking assembly functionally connected to the actuating lever.

As illustrated in FIG. As shown in FIG. A lock plate is located within the bore. It has an aperture that can receive the locking end of the locking pin. A portion of the actuating lever between the handle that applies force end and the body attach end is configured to pivot relative to both body parts so that the locking pin can be moved between a first position where it blocks the rotation of the tubular leg into a second position in which the leg extension that is telescoping can be extended.

When the lever that actuates it is operated by the hands of the user, the locking pin is moved from the initial position to the second position. This causes the leg extension telescoping can be removed from the side frame, which rotates it into its folded position. This can be done while the user's hands are still firmly gripping the handgrip 24 of the side frame. This feature can reduce the amount of effort required to fold and unfold the rollator shopper.
