Abstract:
A walker for maintaining balance and stability has extendable and retractable struts positioned within tubular legs for leveling the walker when climbing stairs, a curb or an incline. The struts on each side of the walker are connected to one another via cables which coordinate the motion of the struts so that when the front struts retract within their respective tubular legs the rear struts extend proportionally and vice versa. The cables may be arranged using pulleys mounted within the tubular legs or Bowden cables may be used within each of the tubular legs. User actuated clutches engage the cables to arrest the motion of the struts and temporarily fix them in a desired configuration.

Claim (Index 10):
The walker according to  claim 9 , wherein said linear bearing comprises a Bowden cable, said Bowden cable comprising:\n a sleeve fixedly attached to said tube; said cable extending through said sleeve, said first end of said cable being attached to said front strut, said second end of said cable being attached to said rear strut such that when said front strut moves into said front leg said rear strut moves outwardly from said rear leg and vice versa.
