Pilates Exercise Machine
In one aspect of the present exercise machine, an assembly is attached to the end of a reformer, where the assembly comprises a seat mechanism and a pedal mechanism. The seat mechanism has a seat, a bracket supporting the seat, and a height adjustment system, where activation of the height adjustment system permits selective adjustment and locking of the height of the seat and the bracket by restricting travel of the seat and bracket to a slanted path that is slanted relative to the vertical. The pedal mechanism has an axle, a first pedal arm with a first pedal, and a second pedal arm with a second pedal. The pedal mechanism is located directly beneath the seat when the seat mechanism is in a lowest position and partially exposed in a higher position.
EXERCISE ROD FOR SUPPORTING EXERCISE ELASTIC ROPE
An exercise rod for supporting an exercise elastic rope includes a supporting member rotatably sleeved on the exercise rod. The periphery of the supporting member is provided with an annular positioning groove for cooperating with a hook. An end of the exercise rod is detachably provided with a blocking member configured to prevent the supporting member from separation, a retractable blocking button is arranged adjacent to the end of the exercise rod, and the supporting member is limited between the blocking button and the blocking member. The supporting member is rotatably sleeved on the exercise rod, and the supporting member is provided with a positioning groove matched with the hook. When the hook is subjected to force, the relative movement between the hook and the supporting member is transformed into the rotation of the supporting member, thereby eliminating the sound caused by friction and collision between parts.
Corner support bar (CSB) in a trampoline
Embodiments of the invention provide a plurality of support bars that may be fitted to the corner of a trampoline frame to provide increased stiffness for the trampoline frame. The support bars may be placed over or in the vicinity of the trampoline's legs to create a zone of increased stiffness. The support bars may also serve as an entry point to the trampoline such that the trampoline user need not stand on the trampoline's suspension system (e.g., helical springs) in order to enter the trampoline. The user may be protected from the support bars by the use of an edge pad filled with an energy absorbing material.
Folding Exercise Bike
A folding exercise bike can be easily assembled and disassembled/folded for storage and/or transportation. The exercise bike can include a telescoping seat, a telescoping stem, a fold to stow handlebar and fold down locking legs. Various configurations for the exercise bike can be used. The exercise bike can include a wireless transmitter to transmit cycling data to a user's portable electronic device.
Mobile upper extremity (UE) supports for use in railed environments
A patient aid assembly for a railed device having first and second associated rails in parallel relation, and an interconnecting member joining first and second mobile upper extremity support assemblies.
Exercise Device
An exercise device of the type including a frame with a first crank assembly rotatably coupled to the frame about a first axis and a second crank assembly rotatably coupled to the frame about a second axis. A control system may be used in communication with the first crank assembly and the second crank assembly, which may provide a synchronous movement of the first crank assembly relative to the second crank assembly. A pedal arm may be provided with a first end pivotally coupled to the first crank assembly and a pedal positioned on a second end. A crank link may be used with one end coupled to the second crank assembly and a second end coupled to the pedal arm. The crank link may be movable on the pedal arm which may provide varying paths of motion of the pedals.
HOLISTIC TRAINING DEVICE
Holistic training device wherein a trainee user executes a training operation of sequential cycles of a first step of synchronized contraction of left limbs and extension of right limbs, followed by a second step of reverse synchronized contraction of right limbs and extension of left limbs thereof, comprising a frame (10) with shorter parallel beams (1,2), longer parallel beams (3,4) and a beam (5) extending intermedially inbetween beams (1,2) with plate extensions (31,41) receiving freely rotatable axles (53,54) at the sides thereof. Pulleys (56a,57a-56b,57b) are fixedly mounted at the ends of the axles (53,54) and pulleys (16a, 17a-16b, 17b) are mounted proximally to the ends of beams (1,2) with straps (36a,36b-37a,37b) freely rotatable around these pulleys, rails (33,34-43,44) being adapted to receive platforms (60) sliding thereupon, these platforms being activated through handgrip items (35a, 45a) gripped by the palms and foot hold items (35b, 45b) nesting the soles of the trainee user to implement the aforementioned sequential exercising cycles.
EXERCISE BOX
According to an aspect of an embodiment, a box may include a frame, multiple panels, and a hatch door. The frame may include multiple corner elements and multiple elongated sides. The multiple corner elements may include three vertices with a coupling mechanism disposed at each vertex of the three vertices. The multiple elongated sides may include a first end configured to be coupled to a first corner element and a second end configured to be coupled to a second coupling mechanism of a second corner element. The multiple panels may be configured to be coupled to the frame via a first surface of the multiple panels. An exterior-facing surface of the multiple panels may be flush with the frame and an interior cavity may be formed within the multiple panels and the frame. The hatch door may be configured to provide access to the interior cavity.
Passive and active driving device for strengthening muscle
A muscle-strengthening passive and active motion device includes: a joint supporter supporting a body part that is bendable or stretchable with a joint region; a driver driving the joint supporter by being combined to the joint supporter; and a controller controlling the driver, wherein the controller is capable of accelerating or decelerating a driving speed of the joint supporter.
FLOOR-BASED EXERCISE MACHINE CONFIGURATIONS
An exercise system includes an exercise platform comprising an internal motor coupled to a cable exiting the exercise platform via a portal in an exit direction to transmit force to a remote handle. It further includes an auxiliary pulley external to the exercise platform that redirects the cable from the exit direction to facilitate a direction of an exercise motion.
