Rehabilitation device and its use for exercising the shoulder region
The present invention relates to a rehabilitation device adapted for rehabilitating and/or exercising the shoulder region of a user, as well as to the use of such a rehabilitation device. The device enables an upright position of the upper body during the exercise, and shoulder supports holding the shoulder position of the user stationary during the exercise, in order to direct the muscle activation precisely into the small muscles of the shoulder region.
Pivoting Weight Arm Assembly
A weight arm assembly for use with a weight lifting rack is provided, the weight arm assembly including a mounting bracket configured to be attached to a vertical surface in a fixed position, an arm mount configured to be coupled to the mounting bracket so as to be pivotable about a first axis, a stop member coupled to the arm mount and configured to move between an engaged position to prevent pivoting of the arm mount through interaction with the mounting bracket, and a disengaged position to allow pivoting of the arm mount, and a weight arm configured to be coupled to the arm mount, proximate a first end of the weight arm, so as to be pivotable about a second axis substantially orthogonal to the first axis.
Programmable range of motion system
A programmable range of motion system has a frame, a range of motion device, a controller, a computer and sensors. The frame has a seat to support a rehab patient. The range of motion device is attached to the frame. The actuator, servo or alternate mechanism selectively rotates the range of motion device through a range of motion for a rehab patient's limb. The controller controls the actuator, servo or alternate mechanism. The computer is connected electronically to the controller. The computer has a software, program or application including a plurality of programmable range of motion movements for exercising the limb. The sensor detects movements of the actuator, servo or alternate mechanism and records data back to the computer. The term actuator as used hereafter includes servo or alternate articulating mechanism.
DEVICES FOR EXERCISE APPARATUSES
A device for an exercise apparatus includes a linear adjustment system and a sensor coupled to the linear adjustment system. The exercise apparatus includes a loading interface and a frame coupled to the loading interface for performing an exercise. The linear adjustment system fixes the loading interface of the exercise apparatus at any one of a plurality of functional positions in a functional range of the loading interface. The sensor measures the force exerted on the linear adjustment system. A correlating mechanism is used to correlate the force exerted on the linear adjustment system with the force exerted on the loading interface. The device allows exercisers to exert high or maximum loads in any one of a plurality of positions throughout their entire range of motion without first passing through a weak range of motion.
Triceps press exercise machine with a moving user support
An exercise machine for performing triceps press exercises, including a moving user support that supports a user in a seated position. The exercise machine includes a linkage assembly that allows the moving user support to tilt as the user performs the triceps press exercise. As the user extends his or her arms from an exercise starting position to an exercise ending position, a user support frameand thus the user's torsoreclines progressively backwards. The user's natural reaction to this reclining sensation is to bring his or her head forward, which encourages the user to plant his or her lower back firmly into a stable position against a back pad and in turn reduces a risk of injury associated with excessively arching of the lower back.
ADJUSTABLE REFORMER
An adjustable reformer for exercising is provided. The reformer includes a frame, a carriage slidably mounted to the horizontal frame, and at least one resistance element connected to the carriage. A cord connects the carriage to at least one lower guide and at least one upper guide. Pulling the cord causes movement of the carriage along the frame against resistance provided by the resistance element. The guides can be height adjustable. The reformer can include a cord retraction system. Related methods of exercise are also provided.
FUNCTIONAL TRAINING EQUIPMENT WITH MULTIPLE MOVEMENT PLANES FOR BACK EXERCISES
A back exercise machine includes: a resistance element; a user support; a first movement element, the first movement element having: a column; and a first connecting element having a pivot point such that the user support is able to pivot about a first axis associated with the first connecting element, wherein the first connecting element is movably coupled to the column such that the first connecting element is able to move along a path defined by the column; and a second movement element, the second movement element having: a rail; and a second connecting element having a pivot point such that the user support is able to pivot about a second axis associated with the second connecting element, wherein the second connecting element is movably coupled to the rail such that the second connecting element is able to move along a path defined by the rail.
REHABILITATION DEVICE AND ITS USE FOR EXERCISING THE SHOULDER REGION
The invention relates to a rehabilitation device adapted for rehabilitation and/or exercise of the shoulder region, the device being provided with a frame (1), which is connected to a power-generating apparatus (2), a back part (10), a seat part (11), and armrests (21). The rehabilitation device according to the invention is characterised in that it further comprises first support arms (23), second support arms (24), and motion arms (22), which communicate with said corresponding first and second support arms. The rehabilitation device according to the invention is further characterised in that said armrests (21) are articulated in said corresponding motion arms (22), and said power-generating apparatus (2) communicates with said motion arms (22). In addition, the invention relates to the use of the rehabilitation device for exercising the shoulder region.
STRENGTH TRAINING SYSTEM
A strength training system includes a detector for detecting moving statues of a load portion of a strength training equipment and generating a statues data of the strength training equipment, and a cloud platform for analyzing the statues data to guide the trainee doing exercise or guide the trainer guiding the trainee to do exercise.
WEIGHT TRAINING EQUIPMENT WITH ADJUSTABLE HANDLE ANGLE
A weight training equipment includes: a base frame that sits on the ground; a chair provided on the upper portion of the base frame and on which an exercising person may sit; first and second exercise bars that are hinge-coupled to both sides of the front of the chair and formed so as to be pushed or pulled forward and backward by the exercising person; a weight part providing weight and composed of a connection bar, which is connected to one side of the first and second exercise bars, and a weight member formed on the connection bar; and a torsion angle adjusting means for adjusting the torsion angle by rotating the first and second exercise bars.
