ABSTRACT:
A combination collapsible chair and walker device aids a handicapped user to move and to exercise in an independent manner. The device has a pair of upstanding complementary frame members laterally spaced apart from each other and connected by a two-part connecting tubular crossbar at its top front portion. Arm rests are attached to the frame for engaging the arm pits of the user. The device includes a swinging gate at its rear portion to allow a user to enter the device when raised. The gate is lowered when the device is in use to add structural integrity to the top and to provide for greater safety to the user by preventing the user from falling backwards out of the device. The frame members are mounted on a stable two-part wide base ring which is supported on swivel-type casters. A seat is mounted on the frame members and is formed of two hinged connected panels whereby the seat may be folded in half. The two-part connecting tubular member, the two-part wide base ring and the two hinged connected seat panels permit the device to be compactly collapsed for easy storage.
