Abstract:
1. A mobilizer device providing mobility support to a user comprising: a base frame having a front and a rear; a pair of pivotally mounted front wheels each one connected to the front of the base frame; a pair of elongate rear wheel supports each one connected to the rear of the base frame and extending rearward therefrom; a pair of rear wheels each one connected to a distal end of one of the elongate rear wheel supports; a pair of upright support members each one connected to the rear of the base frame, a bend in each upright support member displacing an upper end of each support member towards the rear; and a pair of arm support assemblies for providing support to an individual's upper body, each connected adjustably to the upper end of one of the upright support members by a pivoting adjustment mechanism whereby each of the connected arm support assemblies can rotate around the upper end adjusting one or both of the arm support assemblies from a first position where the arm support assembly points to the front and is essentially horizontal for providing spinal decompression by supporting the user's weight through the elbow and forearm being in contact with the arm support assembly to a second position where the arm support assembly points to the rear and is essentially vertical so that the user's hand is able to grasp a distal end of the arm support assembly for stability while walking.
