A walker for both child and adult users includes two supporting units and a connecting unit transversely connecting the two supporting units at the front sides thereof. A horizontal rod is provided between two leg portions of each said supporting unit. Each said horizontal rod has two slots at the opposite ends. Two sliding joints are mounted on the supporting units in the manner that the ends of the horizontal rod can be received by the sliding joints, and two pin members can be respectively pierced through one of the sliding joints and the corresponding slot. Further, two sets of clutch members each having a toothed portion for being detachably engaged with each other are provided between the ends of the telescopic members of the connecting unit and the adjacent supporting units. Thus, the horizontal rods can freely shift vertically corresponding to the variation of the height of the walker, and through operating the clutch members of the positioning units to become engaged or disengaged mutually, the opposite supporting units can be easily and stably fixed after being unfolded, or alternatively, can be operated in a reciprocal manner.

What is claimed is: 1. A walker for children and adults comprising: two supporting units, each having two leg portions at front and back sides wherein each of the two leg portions are respectively attached by an adjusting tube that can be vertically adjusted and fixed with respect to the leg portion, and wherein a horizontal rod is provided between the two leg portions; and a connecting unit transversely connecting the two supporting units at the front sides thereof; wherein each said horizontal rod has two slots at opposite ends and two sliding joints are mounted on the supporting units in the manner that the ends of the horizontal rod can be received by the sliding joints, wherein two pin members respectively pierce through one of the sliding joints and the corresponding slot wherein the two pin members slide horizontally in the two slots, and wherein when the horizontal rod is shifted vertically, the sliding joints freely slide along the corresponding leg portions. 2. The walker of claim 1, wherein at least one of the sliding joints mounted on the supporting unit has an opening settled at the surface thereof. 3. A walker for children and adults comprising: two supporting units, each having two leg portions at front and back sides wherein each of the two leg portions are respectively attached by an adjusting tube that can be vertically adjusted and fixed with respect to the leg portion, and wherein a horizontal rod is provided between the two leg portions; and a connecting unit transversely connecting the two supporting units at the front sides thereof which comprises a connecting bar having the two ends thereof pivotally mounted on the front sides of the supporting units to function as pivot shafts that permit the supporting units to be folded inward; and a set of telescopic members being relatively telescoped and fixed together, and having ends being respectively connected to the adjacent supporting unit by a positioning unit, wherein each said positioning unit has a set of upper and lower clutch members each having a toothed portion for being detachably engaged with the toothed portion of the other clutch member, an elastic member being provided between the upper and lower clutch members to push them apart and a shaft having its upper end assembled to the corresponding supporting unit while its lower end being pierced through the two clutch members and the corresponding telescopic member to pivotally fasten a switch at an eccentricity thereof so that the clutch members can be operated to become mutually engaged and disengaged by turning the switch; and whereby the opposite supporting unit can be folded when the clutch members of the positioning units are disengaged. 4. The walker of claim 3, wherein two retaining segments are respectively protruded from the clutch members for the purpose that the supporting units can be unfolded and accurately fixed at a predetermined position. 5. A walker for children and adults comprising: two supporting units, each having two leg portions at front and back sides wherein each of the two leg portions are respectively attached by an adjusting tube that can be vertically adjusted and fixed with respect to the leg portion, and wherein a horizontal rod is provided between the two leg portions; and a connecting unit transversely connecting the two supporting units at the front sides thereof which comprises a connecting bar having the two ends thereof pivotally mounted on the front sides of the supporting units to function as pivot shafts that permit the supporting units to be folded inward; and a set of telescopic members being relatively telescoped and fixed together and having ends being respectively connected to the adjacent supporting unit by a positioning unit, wherein each said horizontal rod has two slots at the opposite ends and two sliding joints are mounted on the supporting units in the manner that the ends of the horizontal rod are received by the sliding joints and two pin members are respectively pierced through one of the sliding joints and the corresponding slot so that when the horizontal rod is shifted vertically, the sliding joints can freely slide along the corresponding leg portions; wherein each said positioning unit has a set of upper and lower clutch members each having a toothed portion for being detachably engaged with the toothed portion of the other clutch member. 6. The walker of claim 5, wherein at least one of the sliding joints mounted on the corresponding supporting unit has an opening settled at the surface thereof. 7. The walker of claim 5, wherein an elastic member is provided between the upper and lower clutch members to push them apart and a shaft has its upper end assembled to the corresponding supporting unit while its lower end is pierced through the two clutch members and the corresponding telescopic member to pivotally fasten a switch at an eccentricity thereof so that the clutch members can be operated to become mutually engaged or disengaged by turning the switch. 8. The walker of claim 7, wherein two retaining segments are respectively protruded from the clutch members for the purpose that the supporting units can be unfolded and accurately fixed at a predetermined position.
