Abstract: The Motorized Walker is a device containing a frame assembly which a person walking can hold onto for support and help prevent a fall which might otherwise occur. This device need not be picked up between steps since an electric switch mechanism will activate a motor which will move the device the distance required between steps. This motorized feature permits support to be available at all times and the person using the device to walk faster than might otherwise be possible. This device also permits a person to walk where picking up a non-motorized walker might result in a fall since support is removed while the unit is being moved or where picking up a non-motorized walker is a formidable task.
