Abstract: Attachments, apparatuses, and methods for partial weight bearing gait training are described. Attachments for partial weight bearing gait training may include a structure sized and configured for attachment to a walker, an undampened elastic member, and a harness. Apparatuses may include a walker with a walker frame and at least two wheels, a harness support base frame connected to the walker, a suspension arm coupled to the harness support base frame, an undampened elastic member connected to the suspension arm, and a harness connected to the undampened elastic member. Related methods of assembling a gait training apparatus and of using a gait training device are also described.
Abstract: Large number of animals and fowl are shielded against deleterious sun rays and heat by a transportable device equipped with a large sized canopy. The shielding device includes an elevated deploying unit which pivotally hinges canopy supporting arms for deployment to either an open shielding position or a closed position longitudinally aligned for highway transport by a wheeled vehicle.

Abstract: An elevated floor camper tent for SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle) type vehicles having electric, hybrid or other energy-saving, lower horsepower engines and top hinged rear doors. The entire tent assembly fits inside the vehicle for aerodynamic maximization and the state-of-the-art materials minimize the total weight. A set of continuous slides provides support and, with integrated footpads, facilitates setup on hard or soft surfaces. The campers sleep within the relative safety of the vehicle and utilize the main part of the tent as a living area. The standard features, under actual test conditions, suggest the design as safe, effective and user-friendly plus the stable, framed living area having built in rail-type support braces and kick panels help prevent the users from accidents.
