Abstract: A system including a mobility-assistance apparatus and a bag. The apparatus includes one or more shafts. The shaft defines a lumen, has an open end in communication with the lumen, and defines a longitudinally-extending slot in communication with the lumen. An end cap is releasably engagable with the open end to enclose the lumen of the shaft. The bag includes a body and one or more attachment members coupled to the bag via flange portion(s). The attachment member is configured for receipt within the lumen of the shaft with the flange portion extending through the slot of the shaft. The attachment member is insertable into and removable from the lumen of the shaft when the end cap is disengaged from the open end of the shaft, and is retained within the lumen of the shaft when the end cap is engaged with the open end of the shaft.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cane with a novel handle assembly. The handle assembly includes, among other components, an inner frame, an outer cover, and a resilient filler that is positioned between the inner frame and the outer cover to provide the handle assembly with a measure of resiliency to increase the user's comfort during use. In one embodiment of the disclosure, it is envisioned that the handle assembly may include a fluorescent material to facilitate location of the cane in poorly lit, or dim, areas.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an adjustable bed system including a bed frame that is adjustable in height. In one aspect of the present disclosure, the adjustable bed system includes first and second end boards each having an independent height adjustment mechanism. A frame assembly configured and dimensioned to be secured to the first end board at a first end thereof and to the second end board at a second end thereof includes a frame and a transition box. The transition box is secured to the frame at the first end thereof and is operatively engagable with the height adjustment mechanism of the first end board. A drive shaft adjustable between first and second lengths is coupled at a first end thereof to the transition box and at a second end thereof to the second end board to facilitate uniform height adjustment of the first and second end boards.

Abstract: An adjustable walker includes first and second side frames. Each side frame includes a front leg defining a fixed end and a free end and a rear leg defining a fixed end and a free end. The legs are coupled to one another at the fixed ends thereof and are extendable between a first position defining a first length and a second position defining a second length greater than the first length. Each leg includes a locking mechanism for releasably fixing the leg in each of the first and second positions. A side brace is coupled to the front and rear legs and includes a side rail extending transversely therebetween. The side brace is moveable along the legs between the fixed ends and the free ends thereof. The side brace includes a latching mechanism for releasably fixing the position of the side brace with respect to the legs.

Abstract: A commode chair is provided that includes a seat having a central hole and a frame on which the seat is mountable. The frame includes at least three leg connectors. The commode chair also includes at least three legs in which each of the legs is configured to be removably connected to a respective one of the leg connectors. The commode chair further includes at least three leg extenders in which each of the leg extenders is configured to be slideably connected to a respective one of the legs. In an embodiment, the frame and leg assemblies can be simply and easily assembled and disassembled. The components can be stacked with, and/or attached to, each other to reduce the space occupied by the disassembled commode chair, thereby lowering storage and transportation costs.

Abstract: A walker glide having a hollow body with a substantially semi-spherical shape, a top opening and a removable bottom element that are arranged along a common axis. A sleeve is arranged in the hollow body so as to extend from the top opening toward the bottom element. A mounting element is attached to an upper side of the bottom element and is releasably attachable to a lower end of the sleeve whereby the bottom element is replaceable.

Abstract: A locking assembly is disclosed for use with a walker or a rollator having foldable side members. The locking assembly includes a locking pin movable between a first position in which the corresponding side member is held in a locked, unfolded state and a second position in which the side member is in an unlocked, folded state. A lock plate extends transversely to the longitudinal axis of the corresponding side member, and includes an aperture adapted to receive a locking end of the locking pin when the pin is in its first position. A lever is coupled to the locking pin such that when the lever is pivoted by upwardly applied pressure, the locking pin is moved from its first position to its second position to permit rotation of the corresponding side member to its folded state.

Abstract: A folding commode, having two front legs and two back legs. Each front leg is connected to a respective one of the back legs by an arm so that one front leg, one back leg and one arm form a U-shaped side member. A front cross bar is removably connected between the front legs. The front legs pivot relative to the back legs. A rear cross bar is connected between the back legs. A back bar extends between and is removably attached to the back legs. A seat bracket is fixed to the front crossbar and is pivotably connected to the rear crossbar. A seat is releasably attached to the seat bracket. The front legs and the front crossbar are movable between a storage position and a use position.
