End Platform for an Exercise Machine
An end platform for an exercise machine for increased support of an exerciser's spine, neck and head which allows for an expanded scope of exercises that cannot otherwise be performed on the machine without the improved platform. The end platform for an exercise machine generally includes a novel, ergonomically improved stationary platform affixed to at least one opposed end of a substantially longitudinal exercise machine that includes at least a resistance biased reciprocating platform. The improved end platform provides for increased support of exercisers' spine, neck and head, thereby allowing for an expanded scope of exercises that cannot otherwise be performed on the machine without the improved platform, and further provides for the attachment of new and novel exercise equipment accessories to the exercise machine.
TRANSMISSION STRUCTURE OF CLIMBING MACHINE
A transmission structure of a climbing machine for an operator to operate in a standing position is disclosed. The transmission structure of the climbing machine includes a base, a support frame, a first slide rail, a second slide rail, a first transmission unit, a second transmission unit, a first handle slider, a first pedal slider, a second handle slider, a second pedal slider, and a resistance unit. The climbing machine is used to train the synchronized and coordinated movements of hands and feet for simulating rock climbing and mountaineering. The support frame, the first slide rail, the second slide rail, the first transmission unit and the second transmission unit are all located at the center line position of the upright trunk of the operator. The volume of the climbing machine can be reduced greatly to save the space occupied.
Multipurpose exercise device for replicating exercise motions for sports and physical therapy
An exercise device with a base on a support surface and a user platform. One end of a support post is axially mounted to the base and the other end is pivotally mounted to the platform. The platform pivots with the post in a horizontal plane parallel to the support surface and pivots in a vertical plane perpendicular to the support surface. A resistance element having one end mounted to the support post and the other end to the base is provided to control the velocity and angle of pivot of the platform in the horizontal plane. A resistance element having one end mounted to the base and the other end to platform to control the velocity and angle of pivot of the platform in the vertical plane. The user stands on the platform and performs exercise motions to propel the platform in the horizontal plane and the vertical plane.
CLIMBING EXERCISE MACHINE
A climbing exercise machine includes a beam supported on two columns supported on a base. Two handles are movably supported on the columns, respectively. The handles are movable in opposite directions. Two treads are movably supported on the columns, respectively. The treads are movable in opposite directions. An input axle is supported on the columns. The input axle is rotated as the handles and the treads are moved. A transmission case connects the input axle to an output axle. A disc is connected to the output axle. A frame is connected to the beam. A resistance element is supported on the frame. The resistance element includes a magnet. The resistance element is movable relative to the disc to adjust magnetism exerted on the disc by the magnets.
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.
Climbing Machine
Disclosed is a climbing machine including a rotatable rotation shaft (501), a plurality of one-way components (502) capable of achieving one-way transmission, a plurality of transmission units (503) and a plurality of climbing points (300, 400), where the one-way components (502) are connected to the rotation shaft (501) in a sleeving manner, each transmission unit (503) is connected to one climbing point (300, 400), and each transmission unit (503) and the rotation shaft (501) form one-way transmission by means of being connected to one one-way component (502); in one rotating direction, the rotation shaft (501) and the transmission units (503) are capable of being in transmission, and the climbing points (300, 400) descend during transmission; and in the direction opposite to the rotating direction, transmission between the rotation shaft (501) and the transmission units (503) cannot be achieved. By using the climbing machine, a user can experience a vivid feeling of climbing upwards, thereby improving the climbing experience.
Exercise Machine Support System
An exercise machine support system for providing increased versatility including inclination or declination of an exercise surface, a reduction in the overall length and width of the exercise machine, and an enhanced user interface which reduces the risk of injury. The exercise machine support system generally includes a cantilevered exercise machine which is adapted to have a variable angle of incline or decline with respect to a horizontal ground surface. The exercise machine will generally include a base and a support which extends between the base and the exercise machine. The upper end of the support is connected to the exercise machine by a first pivot such that the exercise machine pivots about the support. An adjustment device may be utilized to pivot the exercise machine and thus adjust its angle of incline. Various types of adjustment devices are disclosed, including an actuator, ratchet-and-pawl, gears, and cam.
EXERCISE MACHINE ADJUSTMENT KIT AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME
The present invention provides exercise attachments for modifying an inclinable weightlifting system using a user's body weight. A pair of vertical support devices providing rigidity and elevate the weightlifting system off the ground to aid in a user mounting and dismounting the system. A pair of adapter arms enable a user to tailor exercise attachments to target specific muscle groups and specific regions of that muscle group. The pair of vertical support device and pair of adapter arms may be incorporated into an inclinable weightlifting system to enable a user to perform various rowing and bench press exercises.
ADJUSTABLE ELLIPTICAL TRAINER
An adjustable elliptical trainer is disclosed, which includes a body, a sliding rail, a connecting piece and a movement mechanism. The sliding rail has one end rotatably connected to the body around an axis and other end detachably connected to the body by the connecting piece along a longitudinal extension direction of the sliding rail. The movement mechanism includes a sliding part matched with the sliding rail, and the sliding part is provided on the sliding rail and is slidable along the sliding rail. The axis is perpendicular to the longitudinal extension direction of the sliding rail, a first connection point is provided at a joint between the connecting piece and the sliding rail, and a second connection point is provided at a joint between the connecting piece and the body, the connecting piece is configured to be movable relative to the sliding rail and/or the body.
MULTIPURPOSE EXERCISE DEVICE FOR REPLICATING EXERCISE MOTIONS FOR SPORTS AND PHYSICAL THERAPY
A multipurpose exercise device for replicating exercise motions that has a base on a support surface and a user platform. One end of a support post is axially mounted to the base and the other end is pivotally mounted to the user platform. The platform pivots with the post in a horizontal plane parallel to the support surface and pivots in a vertical plane perpendicular to the support surface. Resistance elements, dampening elements and a linkage system are selectively mounted to the support post and the base to control the velocity and angle of pivot of the platform in the horizontal and vertical plane. Ski and snowboard modules may be mounted to the user platform. The user stands on the platform or modules and performs exercise motions to propel the platform in the horizontal plane and the vertical plane to replicate the exercise motions, e.g., skiing and snowboarding.
