Abstract:
A coupling device couples a walker to a torso orthosis which is coupled to a person. The coupling device includes an orthosis coupling member coupled to said torso orthosis, a walker coupling member coupled to said walker, and a mechanism coupled to the orthosis coupling member from its first end and to the walker coupling member from its second end. The mechanism constrains said orthosis coupling member to move along a free line. The torso orthosis is worn by the person and said coupling device is coupled to both said walker and said torso orthosis. The person may be walking along a moving direction not parallel with said free line. The mechanism forces said walker and torso orthosis to move along said moving direction and allows said torso orthosis to move freely along said free line when said moving direction is not parallel with said free line.

Claim (Index 8):
A coupling device configurable to couple a walker to a torso orthosis which is configurable to couple to a person, said coupling device comprising:\n an orthosis coupling member configurable to be coupled to said torso orthosis; a walker coupling member configurable to be coupled to said walker; and a mechanism coupled to the orthosis coupling member from its first end and to the walker coupling member from its second end, wherein said mechanism is configured to constrain said orthosis coupling member to move and rotate relative to walker coupling member in a free subspace, wherein said torso orthosis is worn by the person and said coupling mechanism is coupled to both said walker and said torso orthosis, wherein said person is able to walk in a moving direction, and wherein said mechanism is configured to force said walker coupling member and said orthosis coupling member to move along said moving direction together and allows said orthosis coupling member to move and rotate freely in said free subspace.
