The compound operating member passes through the rotating member coaxially, and is movable relative to the rotating member in the axial direction. The movable shaft is connected to an operating lever, and is movable along the axial guide groove or drives the rotating member to rotate synchronously through the axial guide groove. The cable has a first end that is directly or indirectly fixed to the exposed portion.

A lever for use in a trampoline includes a frame attachment, a rigid element and a tensioner. The frame attachment is configured for connection to a supporting frame of the trampoline; the frame attachment includes a stop formation. The rigid element is connected to the frame attachment and is configured to pivot about a fulcrum connected to the frame attachment.

The tensioner is connected to the rigid element and is configured for attachment to the trampoline supporting frame.

An apparatus for exercising the muscles. The apparatus includes an exercising device having a power arm or lever, which can be equipped with actuating elements at a first end of the power arm or lever. A second end of the power arm or lever is arranged on a retaining element in a way pivotable about a pivot axis at a first articulated joint. A compression-spring element can be articulated, by way of a first end of the compression-spring element at a first point of articulation on the power arm and articulated, by way of a second end of the compression-spring element at a second point of articulation on the retaining element. A cable-pull arrangement has a cable and is fixed in a releasable manner in a spatial relationship to the exercising device, independently of the exercising device, by means of a first fixing device and is able to be combined with the power arm of the exercising device by means of a second fixing device, so that the cable-pull arrangement is connectible to the exercising device in order for training to take place.

The present disclosure provides training systems and apparatus for working out. The training system includes a pivotal bracket and a workout bar. The pivotal bracket includes a first portion and a second portion pivotally coupled to the first portion. The first portion is couplable to a support surface. The workout bar is coupled to the second portion of the pivotal bracket. The workout bar includes a cylindrical weight receiving portion positioned distal relative to the second portion of the pivotal bracket and a rectangular intermediate portion positioned between the second portion of the pivotal bracket and the cylindrical weight receiving portion. The weight bar may include a plurality of pairs of holes spaced apart along a length of the bar for receiving various attachment members for performing landmine workout movements. The training system may include other support structures to which the pivotal bracket is connected.

The present invention may be embodied as a system or method for dynamically exercising a user's neck muscles. The system includes a headset, an arm attached thereto, a weight, and at least one motor to move the weight, for example, about the arm. The weight may be mounted eccentrically on a radial track that is rotatable by one motor and moved linearly by another motor. The direction of the arm, the distance between an apex of the headset and the weight, the eccentricity of the weight on the axis, and the speed of rotation of the motor are all parameters that can be adjusted by the caregiver or user, either manually or via controlling software.

Electromechanical rehabilitation of a user can include receiving a pedal force value from a pedal sensor of a pedal; receiving a pedal rotational position; based on the pedal rotational position over a period of time, calculating a pedal velocity; and based at least upon the pedal force value, a set pedal resistance value, and the pedal velocity, outputting one or more control signals causing an electric motor to provide a driving force to control simulated rotational inertia applied to the pedal.

An electromechanical device for rehabilitation includes pedals coupled to radially-adjustable couplings, an electric motor coupled to the pedals via the radially-adjustable couplings, and a control system including a processing device operatively coupled to the electric motor. The processing device configured to, responsive to a first trigger condition occurring, control the electric motor to operate in a passive mode by independently driving the radially-adjustable couplings rotationally coupled to the pedals. The processing device also configured to, responsive to a second trigger condition occurring, control the electric motor to operate in an active-assisted mode by measuring revolutions per minute of the radially-adjustable couplings, and cause the electric motor to drive the radially-adjustable couplings when the measured revolutions per minute satisfy a threshold condition, and responsive to a third trigger condition occurring, control the electric motor to operate in a resistive mode by providing resistance to rotation of the radially-adjustable couplings.

An exercise device (10) for swallowing rehabilitation with a variable resistance, the exercise device (10) comprising an exerciser body (20) forming a support, chin receiving means (30) movably connected to the exerciser body (20), exercising means (50) for creating resistance when the chin receiving means (30) is moved towards the exerciser body (20), and a lever arm (32, 70) connected to the exerciser body (20) via a fulcrum (45, 75) and configured to interact with the exercising means (50), wherein the exercising means (50) or the fulcrum (75) is displaceable to provide a variable resistance against movement of the chin receiving means (30) towards the exerciser body (20).

A cable-operated exercise device includes an adjustable arm. The adjustable arm includes an adjustment mechanism that is operable by a single hand. To adjust the vertical angular position of the arm, the user pulls a pin out of a positioning hole on an adjustment plate. The arm is counterbalanced about a pivot connection so that the position of the arm does not change when the pin is pulled out of the positioning hole. The user then moves the arm into a second position and puts the pin back into a second positioning hole.

An exercise machine is provided with a loading device. The loading device includes a lever, a coupler, a cylinder unit and a driving unit. The lever includes two ends. The first end of the lever is connected to the exercise machine. The coupler is movable along the lever between the first and second ends. The cylinder unit includes an end connected to the exercise machine and another end connected to the coupler. The driving unit includes a threaded sleeve, a threaded rod and a motor. The threaded sleeve is connected to the coupler. The threaded rod is engaged with the threaded sleeve. The motor rotates the threaded rod relative to the threaded sleeve so that the threaded rod moves the coupler via the threaded sleeve.
