Abstract

In an orthotic walker, mechanism is provided to bias alternate motion of a user's legs. The mechanism may be a reciprocating bar at hip level, or at least one strap ends of which are attached to leg braces and the bight passing round a fixed frame member. A stirrup mechanism may be pivoted at an 'ankle joint' and the pivotal motion may be limited to avoid toe down position. The stirrup may have a clamp for a shoe. Brake mechanism may be movable between operative and inoperative positions. In the operative position rearward rolling is disallowed while forward motion is allowed.
