1. A walker assembly structured to facilitate an individual'"'"'s mobility, said walker assembly comprising:
- a frame selectively disposable between an operative orientation and a stored orientation,said frame including a front leg assembly and a rear leg assembly movably interconnected and disposable relative to one another between said operative and stored orientations,a front wheel assembly and a rear wheel assembly respectively connected to a lower portion of corresponding ones of said front and rear leg assemblies,at least one of said front or rear leg assemblies structured to have a variable length when disposed between said operative and stored orientations,said stored orientation at least partially defined by said frame having a compact configuration of substantially reduced transverse and longitudinal dimensions, andsaid stored orientation comprising at least one of said front or rear leg assemblies including a lower portion disposable into a folded storage position and thereby at least partially defining said reduced longitudinal dimension.

Abstract
A mobility device includes at least a first front leg and at least a first rear leg connected to the first front leg connected to the first front leg. The first rear leg includes an upper member having a first end a second end and a lower member having a first end and a second end. The first end of the upper member is pivotally connected to the first end of the lower member, and the lower member is preferably pivotal between an extended use position and a folded storage position.

10. A walker assembly structured to facilitate an individual'"'"'s mobility, said walker assembly comprising:
-
a frame selectively disposable between an operative orientation and a stored orientation, said frame including a front leg assembly and a rear leg assembly movably connected and relatively disposable between said operable and stored orientations, said operative orientation comprising said front and rear leg assemblies movably connected and disposed in spaced, angularly oriented relation to one another, said stored orientation comprising said front and rear leg assemblies disposed in adjacent, substantially aligned relation along a length of said frame, a front wheel assembly and a rear wheel assembly respectively connected to said front and rear leg assemblies, said stored orientation at least partially defined by said frame assuming a compact configuration of substantially reduced transverse and longitudinal dimensions, said stored orientation comprising at least one of said front or rear wheel assemblies disposable into a folded storage position and thereby at least partially defining said reduced longitudinal dimension; and said one front or rear wheel assembly connected to said lower portion of a corresponding one of said front or rear leg assemblies and movable therewith into said folded storage position. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
