Introduction

A frame walker is a type of two-arm operated walker. People who need help walking can use a frame walker.

The device can provide stable support when people walk and stand, and reduce the risk of falling.

GB/T 14728 "Requirements and test methods for dual-arm operated walkers" is intended to consist of three parts.

--- Part 1: Frame-type walkers. The purpose is to provide requirements and test methods for frame-type walkers.

--- Part 2: Wheeled walkers. The purpose is to provide requirements and test methods for wheeled walkers.

--- Part 3: Desktop walkers. The purpose is to provide requirements and test methods for desktop walkers.
