Device for height adjustment
A physiotherapeutic device is disclosed. In an embodiment a physiotherapeutic device includes an arm trainer configured to rotationally move arms of a patient, the arm trainer having a first axis and a leg trainer configured to rotationally move legs of the patient, the leg trainer having a second axis, wherein the first and second axes comprise an adjustability in height, wherein a distance of the first axis to the second axis is constant, wherein the arm and leg trainers are adjustable in height so that an adjustment in height results in different exercising positions.
STATIONARY EXERCISE BICYCLE WITH HORIZONTAL FLYWHEEL
An exercise machine such as a stationary exercise bicycle includes a body supported by the ground; an axle disposed in the body; a first gear disposed on the axle; a driving shaft vertically disposed in the body; a second gear disposed on the driving shaft and meshed the first gear; and a horizontally disposed flywheel disposed in a base of the body. A rotation of the axle rotates the flywheel via the first gear, the second gear, and the driving shaft.
Folding Exercise Chair for Resistance Training
A folding exercise chair for resistance training has a collapsible chair frame, a pair of resistance mechanisms, and a padded cross-brace. The collapsible chair frame has a seat and a height-adjustable backing. The height adjustable backing is an assembly that enables a user to modify the height of the collapsible chair frame's backrest. The padded cross-brace is connected offset from the seat and across the collapsible chair frame to support the user's back and add comfort while the user is exercising. Each of the pair of resistance mechanisms is a device used to facilitate resistance training exercises. To that end, each of the pair of resistance mechanisms is positioned on either side of the collapsible chair frame.
DEVICE WITH RECIPROCATING UPPER EXTREMITY SUPPORT ASSEMBLIES
An upper body support assembly for use with an associated railed device having first and second rails is disclosed. The assembly includes first and second upper body supports capable of moving along the first and second rails, respectively. The upper body supports have at least one of: (i) first and second forearm supports, (ii) first and second hand grips, or (iii) a first forearm support and a first hand grip. An interconnecting member extends between and selectively connects both the first and second upper body supports to permit (i) interrelated movement therebetween when connected, and (ii) independent movement therebetween when disconnected. The assembly can achieve two point gait, three point gait, and four point gait movement.
Rowing machine having a beam with a hinge joint
A rowing machine includes a frame where the frame includes a first support, a second support, and a beam extending between the first support and the second support. A track is defined by at least a portion of the beam, and a sliding member is movably disposed on the track. A hinge joint is disposed in the beam between the first support and the second support defining a first section of the beam and a second section of the beam.
Leg exercise machine
A leg exercise machine includes a frame and a swinging mechanism. The swinging mechanism includes two parallel tubes, four swinging rods and two pedals. The tubes are supported on the frame. Each of the pedals is connected to two corresponding ones of the swinging rods. Each of the universal joints connects a corresponding end of a corresponding one of the tubes to an upper end of a corresponding one of the swinging rods.
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.
Physical Exercise Apparatus and Method for Training On Such An Apparatus
The disclosed physical exercise apparatus (2) comprises a frame (2′) equipped with a crankset and a saddle (26), the saddle itself comprising a chassis (262) fastened to the frame, two saddle parts (266) and articulation members (267, 268) for articulating each saddle part relative to the frame around a pitch axis (A26), about a roll axis (B26) and about a yaw axis (L26). This apparatus (2) also comprises sensors (30, 50) for detecting a pitch movement (T), a roll movement (R), and a yaw movement (L) of each saddle part respectively about the pitch, roll, and yaw axes, these movements resulting from pedaling made by a user. At least one calculation unit (40) is configured to determine, from output signals (S.sub.30, S.sub.50) of the sensors, angular amplitudes (α, β, γ) of the pitch (T), roll (R), and yaw (L) movements. At least one screen (29) is provided in order to display, depending on the angular amplitudes determined by the calculation unit (40), the position on each saddle part of a bearing point (P.sub.G, P.sub.D) of an ischium of a user in the process of pedaling.
Exercise machine carriage handle system
An exercise machine carriage handle system for providing handles for an exerciser to grasp with their hands thereby expanding the type of exercises that may be performed. The exercise machine carriage handle system generally includes a frame having a track, a carriage movably connected to the track, a bias member connected between the frame and the carriage, a first handle connected to the carriage near the first side, and a second handle connected to the carriage near the second side. The first handle and second handle are adapted for grasping with a first hand and a second hand respectively of a user during the performance of an exercise on the exercise machine.
APPARATUS FOR NATURAL TORSO AND LIMBS TRACKING AND FEEDBACK FOR ELECTRONIC INTERACTION
An apparatus for natural torso and limbs tracking and feedback for electronic interaction with fall safety support. The apparatus comprises a body harness worn on the body of a user, a support structure designed to bear the weight of the user in the event of a stumble, trip, or fall, and a plurality of tethers attached at one end to the harness and at the other end to the support structure. One or more sensors are integrated into the system to measure aspects of the user's movement and used as input to control a computer system. In the event of stumble, trip, or fall, all of, or a portion of, the user's body weight is borne by the tethers as a safety mechanism to prevent injury. The system is designed to be used with virtual reality systems wherein the user's vision is blocked or obscured by a virtual reality visor.
