Abstract

A convertible walker is provided. The convertible walker can have a wheelchair configuration and a walker configuration to allow a user to alternately sit and stand, and can include a frame supporting an upper rest and a lower rest. A fall seat can be provided that is coupled to the lower rest and rotatable relative to the upper rest. The fall seat can break the fall of a user by rotating via the falling action of the user. In both the wheelchair and walker configurations, a torso support can retain the user in the convertible walker.
