Abstract
A rolling walker comprises a first frame supported by a front caster at both ends thereof and a second frame supported by a rear caster at both ends thereof, and a handle provided to either first frame or second frame . The first frame and the second frame are foldably connected each other by a connecting shaft . The rolling walker has a closed frame fixing means which fixes the first frame and the second frame in a closed position and connects the first frame and the second frame to stand when the first frame and the second frame are rotationally folded around the connecting shaft , so that each frame can be kept folded to stand when the rolling walker is not used. The rolling walker also has a straight moving means which fixes the front caster in a back and front direction of the rolling walker and the front caster is a rotatable caster having the caster rotational axis CF around which the front caster rotates so that all casters and can be fixed in a back and front direction, ensuring straightness in walking.
