This kind of system may not be suitable for smaller users who struggle to engage the brakes, or heavier users who might unintentionally activate them.

The cable loop brake functions more similar to the brakes of bicycles. The cable loop brake system is activated by simultaneously pressing the handlebars in both hands. This type of brake system is suitable for those with limited hand function, and offers more control than the brakes that push down.

Crossbar can also be used to refer to the vertical stroke that is a cross between two other strokes in an alphabet. The location, length and width of a crossbar can affect the legibility of any letterform. This is a major distinction between serif and nonserif fonts. The crossbar on the smaller e is commonly called an arm.

The locking assembly is attached to a top substantially horizontal support arm 218 which joins a pair of substantially vertical tubular legs for the front and rear 220 and 228, respectively. Telescoping tubular leg extension 226 and 228 are connected to the ends of front and rear tubular legs. Telescoping extensions can be moved from an unlocked position to an unlocked position to adjust the height.

Once the extension leg segments are in the correct position, a nonsliding grip is attached to the lever's end. The housing is connected to the actuating lever via an extension piece that extends away and a recess that is sized to accept the extension piece. The extension piece as well as the recessive piece provide an axis around where the actuating handle may be swung.

Once the leg segments that telescoping are in the appropriate position the locking mechanism is activated the snap button and biasing spring (not shown). This arrangement lets the user easily engage and disengage the folding mechanism to make it easy to store and transport of the walking aid.

The Locking Mechanism

The present invention is a locking mechanism for use with a foldable rollator outdoor rollator or walker. The invention addresses a requirement for a lock assembly for use with such walkers and rollators tri walkers that is relatively easy to configure between folded and unfolded positions by persons who may be unable to move their hands.

Typically, the gadget comprising two spaced side frames and the cross brace connecting them has two handles. Two hand brakes are mounted to the handles and each features a pin-actuating plunger that is connected to the plunger on the respective cross bar. As the user pushes the hand brakes, the pin actuating plunger is released, creating a side frame that can rotate into a folded position.

This type of device comes with an issue in that the actuating handle must be held by one hand while trying to depress the plunger that is pin-actuated. This can be a problem for people who have limitations in the strength or dexterity of their hand. The present invention solves this issue by providing a locking assembly that is operatively linked to the actuator mechanism.

As illustrated in FIG. 2, the locking assembly consists of a first body portion that has a bore through which extends a locking pin and a second part that is rigidly connected to the first body portion. A lock plate is positioned inside the bore and has an opening that can be adapted to accommodate a locking end of the locking pin. The part of the actuating hand between the force-applying handle end and the attachment end of the body is configured to pivot with respect to both body portions in such a way that the locking plate is moved from a position that blocks rotation for the corresponding tubular leg to a position where the telescoping legs can be extended.
