A walking assistance device, for example, a walking cane, a walking crutch, or walker includes a gas storage vessel for providing an ambulatory supply of medicinal gas for a user of the device. The gas storage vessel is formed from a plurality of polymeric hollow chamber having either an ellipsoidal or spherical shape and interconnected by a plurality of relatively narrow conduit sections disposed between consecutive ones of the chambers. The gas storage vessel includes a reinforcing filament wrapped around the interconnected chambers and interconnecting conduit sections to limit radial expansion of the chambers and conduit sections when filled with a fluid under pressure. The container system further includes a fluid transfer control system attached to the gas storage vessel for controlling fluid flow into and out of the gas storage vessel and a gas delivery mechanism for delivering gas from the gas storage vessel to a user in a breathable manner.

L'invention concerne un dispositif d'aide à la déambulation, par exemple, une canne, une béquille ou un déambulateur, qui comporte un récipient de stockage de gaz conçu pour fournir de manière ambulatoire du gaz médical à son utilisateur. Le récipient de stockage de gaz est constitué de plusieurs chambres polymères creuses de forme ellipsoïdale ou sphérique et reliées par plusieurs sections de conduites relativement étroites disposées entre les chambres consécutives. Le récipient de stockage de gaz comporte un filament renforçateur enroulé autour des chambres interconnectées et reliant les sections de conduites en vue de limiter la dilatation radiale des chambres et desdites sections lorsqu'elles sont remplies d'un fluide sous pression. Le système conteneur comprend en outre un système de régulation du transfert de fluide, fixé au récipient de stockage de gaz, destiné à réguler le débit du fluide entrant et sortant de ce récipient, ainsi qu'un mécanisme conçu pour administrer à l'utilisateur le gaz, à partir dudit récipient, de manière respirable.
