Physical therapy apparatus and method of use
An apparatus and method for physical therapy includes a base structure, a roller table positioned on the base structure including a plurality of free motion rollers, at least one motor and/or and at least one air compressor connected to the base structure, a plurality of powered rollers or a contact plate located within the base structure being in contact with the plurality of free motion rollers, at least one pneumatic block with a pneumatic piston connected to the at least one air compressor and being configured to raise and lower the power rollers and/or the contact plate, a load cell in communication with the apparatus being configured to measure and record a patient's response to the transition of the roller table and/or the contact plate, and a programmable logic controller.
Exercise machine with adjustable handles
An exercise machine with adjustable handles that provide for multiple handle positions. The exercise machine with adjustable handles generally includes a frame with one or more rails, a carriage movably positioned upon the rails, and a pair of adjustable handles positioned near an end of the frame. The adjustable handles each have a handle portion that is movably connected to a corresponding handle stanchion to pivot from a storage position to an extended position.
STATIONARY EXERCISE APPARATUS
A stationary exercise device having variable footpaths is disclosed. The exercise device includes a frame, a pair of supporting members that have a first end to rotate about an axis and a second end to move along a reciprocating path, a pair of pedals joined to the supporting members, and a guider assembly for adjusting an incline angle of the reciprocating path.
Stationary Exercise Bike with a Desk Plate
The present disclosure discloses a stationary exercise bike with a desk plate, comprising an stationary exercise bike body assembly and a desk plate assembly. In the present disclosure, the users can adjust the height of the desk plate as well as the distance to the desk plate, thus users with different heights and figures can all be accommodated. And it's convenient since all the adjustments can be done while the user sits on the exercise bicycle, and operate directly on the desk plate. Besides, the desk plate can be lifted and slid out of the exercise bicycle, and used as an independent standing table when the exercise bicycle is not in use.
Moving cyclic machine
Disclosed is a moving cyclic machine which is implemented to perform an elliptical motion or interpolating curve motion independently from pedal rotation in a mechanical aspect so as to remedy boredom and improve a difficult exercise process of existing cycle exercise and to provide interest and motivation by increasing a level of a sense of immersion such that a user can continuously do lower body exercise and aerobic exercise for a long time everyday.
EXERCISE MACHINE FOR NEAR-ELLIPTICAL ARM MOVEMENT
An exercise machine for a near-elliptical arm movement, comprising at least one manual arm-moving structure system enabling an elliptical movement pivotably connected to a cycling pivot shaft structure at one position thereof, and performs a circular movement, elliptical movement, near-elliptical movement, or unidirectional full-cycle movement; and pivotably connected to a reciprocating pivot shaft structure at another position thereof, or performs a linear or curved bidirectional reciprocating movements under restriction and control of a related guide wheel structure system or guide rail structure system. Other portions of the manual arm-moving structure enabling the elliptical movement perform a near-elliptical movement under the collective action of systems related to the full-cycle movement or the bidirectional reciprocating movement. An arm of a user is also moved in a near-elliptical trajectory by means of a corresponding handle structure directly or indirectly provided on the manual arm-moving structure enabling the elliptical movement.
ELLIPTICAL EXERCISE MACHINE
An exercise machine may include a reciprocating linkage that supports one or more pedals configured to move in a closed loop (e.g., elliptical) path as a user exercises with the machine. The exercise machine may be adjustable to vary a characteristic of the exercise provided by the machine, for example by changing an incline of a rail supporting the reciprocating linkage, and thus an angle of the closed loop path. The exercise machine may vary the incline with a lift mechanism operatively associated with the front upright frame of the machine, which may also support a resistance assembly, all in a compact form factor that may be more aesthetically pleasing and practical for relatively smaller exercise spaces.
EXERCISE MACHINES HAVING ADJUSTABLE ELLIPTICAL STRIDING MOTION
An exercise machine is for performing a striding exercise motion. The exercise machine has frame; first and second pedal members; first and second foot pads on the first and second pedal members, respectively, each of the first and second foot pads being configured to move in an elliptical path during the striding exercise motion; first and second rocker arms pivotally coupled to the frame; and first and second adjustment devices configured to actively adjust and set a position of the first and second pedal members relative to the first and second rocker arms, respectively, which thereby changes a shape of the elliptical path.
EXERCISE MACHINES FOR FACILITATING ELLIPTICAL STRIDING MOTION
An exercise machine is for performing a striding exercise motion. The exercise machine has a frame; first and second pedal members; first and second foot pads on the first and second pedal members, respectively, each of the first and second foot pads being movable along an elliptical path during said striding exercise motion; and first and second rocker arms each having a first end that is pivotable with respect to the frame about a rocker arm pivot axis and further having a second end that is pivotable with respect to one of the first and second pedal members about a pedal lever hub axis. The frame has first and second frame portions. The first frame portion supports the first and second rocker arms and is pivotable about a frame pivot axis relative to the second frame portion. Pivoting the first frame portion relative to the second frame portion adjusts a position of the rocker arm pivot axis, which thereby changes a shape of the elliptical path.
Rowing Machine Exercise Device
A rowing machine exercise device includes a vertically adjustable rear support base. The vertically adjustable rear support base includes an outer vertical support beam coupled to and extending down from the rowing machine frame, where the outer vertical support beam has a vertical channel extending upward therein from a bottom of the outer vertical support beam and has a latch pin hole extending through a wall of a bottom portion of the vertical support beam; an inner vertical support beam received in a telescoping manner within the outer support beam through the bottom of the outer support beam, where the inner vertical support beam has a plurality of adjustment holes uniformly spaced along a vertical line in an outer wall of the inner vertical support beam, and where the vertical line is horizontally aligned with the latch pin hole in the outer vertical support beam; a latch pin assembly mounted to the outer vertical support beam, where the latch pin assembly includes a latch pin biased to extend through the latch pin hole and any of the adjustment holes that are vertically aligned with the latch pin hole, and where the latch pin assembly includes an actuating tab that overcomes the bias to pull the latch pin from the vertically aligned adjustment hole when actuated; and a lift handle mounted to or part of the outer vertical support beam and/or the rowing machine frame.
