  • Patent number: 6561206
    Abstract: A crutch coupling system for holding two crutches in a static relationship with respect to each other. The crutch coupling system includes a first coupling assembly, which is connected to a first walking aid and provides a magnetic force for facilitating the coupling of a pair of walking aids; and a second coupling assembly, which is similarly connected to a second walking aid and is magnetically attracted to the first coupling assembly such that the second coupling assembly is selectively couplable to the first coupling assembly when the first and second coupling assemblies are in close physical proximity.
