An exercise apparatus includes a support frame unit, a crank wheel unit disposed on the support frame unit, a resistance unit for providing resistance to the crank wheel unit, and two link units respectively disposed on left and right sides of the support frame unit. Each link unit includes a first pivot arm pivotally connected to the support frame unit, a pedal rod pivotally connected to the first pivot arm, a second pivot arm pivotally connected between the support frame unit and the pedal rod, a drive rod pivotally connected between the first pivot arm and the crank wheel unit, and a foot plate disposed on the pedal rod.
TORQUE DETECTION DEVICE OF FITNESS EQUIPMENT
A torque detection device of fitness equipment, the fitness equipment contains: a frame, a flywheel rotatably connected on the frame, and the torque detection device. The torque detection device includes a loading sensor and a magnetoresistance mechanism. A magnet holder of the magnetoresistance mechanism is rotatably connected on a fixer by way of a rotary shaft and has multiple magnets. A steel cable is configured to actuate a magnet holder to rotate along the rotary shaft so as to change a position of a respective one magnet of multiple magnets relative to a flywheel, and an area of the respective one magnet which covers the flywheel is changeable, thus changing a magnetoresistance of the respective one magnet of the magnet holder when the flywheel rotates. The loading sensor is configured to detect a reaction force of a magnetoresistance mechanism so as to calculate a torque value of the flywheel.

Unsupported Pelvic / Spine, Third Class Lever Exercise System and Method
The invention is embodied in an exercise system that can allow its user to counterbalance the effects associated with a predominantly sedentary lifestyle though a fitness device that comprises a combination of (a) supporting the lower body in a manner that permits a user's upper body to act as a third class lever with the user's hips operating as fulcrum and (b) engaging in resistance exercises with the upper body in a horizontal position, unsupported above the greater trochanter.
COMBINATION TRAINING EQUIPMENT
Apparatus (100) for exercising the muscles, comprising an exercising device (1) having a power arm or lever (2), which can be equipped with actuating elements (4) at a first end (3) and, by way of a second end (5), is arranged on a retaining element (6) in a way pivotable about a pivot axis at a first articulated joint (9), whereby a compression-spring element (11) can be articulated, by way of a first end (10), at a first point of articulation (12) on the power arm (2) and is articulated, by way of a second end (13), at a second point of articulation (14) on the retaining element (6), and also comprising a cable-pull arrangement (50) having a cable (60). The cable-pull arrangement (50) of the apparatus (100) is fixed in a releasable manner in a spatial relationship to the exercising device (1), independently of the exercising device (1), by means of a first fixing device (52) and is able to be combined with the power arm (2) of the exercising device (1) by means of a second fixing device (58), so that the cable-pull arrangement (50) is connectible to the exercising device (1) in order for training to take place.
Portable resistance exercise device (PRED)
An exercise device is portable and lightweight, where a user pushes levers (for example, handles or pedals) in a linear fashion. The levers may not be connected to each other and may be used alternately or both at the same time. Each lever is connected to a bearing mechanism inside of a housing, where the bearing mechanism reduces friction and creates stability when pushing the levers. The levers are attached to one or more sets of resistance bands that enable different levels of resistance by rotating a top dial to vary the intensity of physical activity. The device has a base having foldable base supports and foldable pedals, thus providing portability of the device. The exercise device may have a pedometer situated within one of the levers that counts the steps and may communicate with an application executing on a mobile device in order to measure the user's exercise performance.
Exercise device
An exercise device is provided, including: a main body, two fan wheels and a magnetic resistance assembly. The main body includes an axle disposed thereon. The two fan wheels are connected to the axle and rotatable relative to the main body. The magnetic resistance assembly includes two magnetoresistive rings disposed respectively on the two fan wheels and around the axle, a magnetic unit and a controlling unit. The magnetic unit includes two magnetic portions respectively corresponding to the two magnetoresistive rings. The controlling unit includes a lever rotatably disposed on the main body at a pivot point, and the magnetic unit and an operating portion are disposed on the lever and located by two opposite sides with respect to the pivot point. The pivot point and the axle are eccentrically arranged.
Cam Mechanism for Adjustable Torque Without Cable Slack
A cam mechanism may include a cam assembly rotatably mounted to an axis shaft and having a profile arc adapted for receiving a belt or cable, a belt adjustment lever pivotally mounted to the cam assembly and having a control bearing, and a cam range slot plate rigidly mounted to the axis shaft and defining a slot in sliding communication with the control bearing of the belt adjustment lever, wherein the belt adjustment lever is connected to one end of a belt or cable, and the opposite end of the belt or cable is connected to a moveable weight stack, and wherein the cam assembly is rotatable relative to the cam range slot plate.
MULTIPLE POSITION ADJUSTABLE EXERCISE DEVICE
A multiple position adjustable exercise device includes a first plate, a second plate and an elastic member. The second plate is pivotally connected with the first plate. The elastic member is disposed between the first plate and the second plate, and when the second plate rotates relative to the first plate, the elastic member is twisted for providing an elastic recovering force. An initial position of the second plate relative to the first plate is adjustable for adjusting the elastic recovering force.
