loop lock

This new generation loop lock handle has been designed
to offer maximum comfort and safety. Two functions
are incorporated: a normal loop lock and a parking
loop lock. Those functions are fully separated, to avoid
misunderstandings. Contact areas are wide, to limit
pressure on the fingers.
Normal loop lock function may be applied, while walking
with the Rollator, e.g. as a help to make a corner, or as a
help to get up or off the side walk. Activating the Locks
is performed by pulling the loop lock handle up, similar to
operating the brakes of a bicycle.
The parking loop lock will be applied at standstill. When
the user wants to sit down on the seat, the parking loop
lock must be applied first, for safety reasons. If the
user has to reach away from the Rollator, e.g. for taking
something from the self in a shop, it will be safe to apply
the parking loop lock first.
The way of activating the parking loop lock is by pushing
the handle down. This way is convenient for people
who cannot easily pinch the handle, because of certain
disabilities of their hands. Releasing the parking loop lock
can be done by moving the handle up. For operation the
parking loop lock, the loop lock handle is provided with a
wider section at the end.

The Rollator loop lock handle has been designed for
operating the loop locks of a Rollator or walker and
incorporates two functions: operating of normal loop lock
and operating the parking loop lock. Normal loop lock will
be used during walking, e.g. as help to make a corner. The
parking loop lock function will be used at a standstill, e.g.
to keep the Rollator at its place, when using the seat to sit
down.

of parking loop lock are fully separated, to avoid
misunderstandings.
