Abstract: A detachable bed handle providing support and mobility assistance for a user on a bed or similar furniture is disclosed. The detachable bed handle may couple with a base portion that can be mounted on a bed frame or bed base, or be positioned between a mattress and a box spring or bed base. The bed may be an adjustable (articulating) bed. The bed handle may have a gripping member that is shaped so as to avoid areas of potential entrapment of a user's body between the bed handle and the bed. Entrapment areas can be avoided both when the bed is in a nonarticulated state and when the bed is in an articulated state.

Abstract: Disclosed is a collapsible walking device that can be disposed in an operative (open) configuration and a storage (closed) configuration. The open, operative configuration of the walking device provides a structure to aid a user in walking or standing. The closed, storage configuration allows for easy and convenient storage and transport of the walking device. The collapsible walking device can be transitioned from the operative configuration to the storage configuration in one motion. The walking device includes four support legs that extend to the ground from adjacent two handles, and a seat configured to support the user.

Abstract: Safety guards for use with a bed rail are disclosed. A safety guard may be coupled to a mattress without being coupled to a bed rail, or a safety guard may be coupled to a mattress and to a bed rail. The safety guards may reduce a risk of entrapment between the mattress and the bed rail by distributing weight on the mattress across a wide surface area. A safety guard may be disposed underneath a sheet on the mattress. The safety guard may remain coupled to the mattress without inhibiting changing of sheets on the mattress.

Abstract: A mobility assistance device including a base section and an upright section. The base section is configured to be disposed under a cushion-type portion of a piece of furniture. The base section includes a first base component and a second base component, each of the first and second base components including a first portion defining a base plane and a second portion extending generally upright in a plane perpendicular to the base plane. The upright section includes an arched component configured to couple the second portions of the two base components, and a height-adjustable handle coupled to the arched component.

Abstract: A detachable bed rail providing support for a user on a bed or similar furniture is disclosed. The detachable bed rail may include a base that can fit under a mattress, and a support rail that extends upright relative to the base. The bed rail may be decoupled from the base portion and coupled to the bed in a storage configuration. The detachable bed rail may include accessories comprising a rail cover, a tray table and an attachable extension.
