EXERCISE EQUIPMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18201866 titled 'EXERCISE EQUIPMENT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes exercise equipment that includes a body with a mounting surface and a seating surface for supporting the user's feet. It also includes a load unit with a wire that is connected to the body and a load generator that generates a force to pull the wire into the body.

  • The exercise equipment includes a drawing-out guide that is fixed to the mounting surface and has a guide through-hole for the wire to pass through.
  • A drawing-out hole cover is provided to close the guide through-hole and has a cover body that can rotate around an axis parallel to the seating surface.
  • The cover body has a cover through-hole to guide the opposite end of the wire, and a limiter is included to limit the rotation angle of the cover body.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Home gyms and fitness centers can use this exercise equipment to provide a versatile and efficient workout experience.
  • Physical therapy clinics can utilize this equipment for rehabilitation exercises and strength training.
  • Sports training facilities can incorporate this equipment to enhance athletic performance and conditioning.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The exercise equipment provides a convenient and compact solution for individuals who want to exercise at home or in limited spaces.
  • The load unit and load generator allow for adjustable resistance levels, providing a customizable workout experience.
  • The drawing-out guide and hole cover ensure the wire is properly guided and protected during use.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Users can perform a wide range of exercises targeting different muscle groups using a single piece of equipment.
  • The adjustable resistance levels allow for progressive overload, promoting muscle growth and strength development.
  • The compact design and easy storage make this exercise equipment suitable for small spaces and on-the-go workouts.


Original Abstract Submitted

Exercise equipment may include a body provided with a mounting surface and a seating surface to support feet of a user, a load unit including a wire having one end disposed inside the body and an opposite end exposed to the mounting surface, and a load generator disposed inside the body and configured to generate a force pulling the wire into the body, a drawing-out guide including a guide fixed to the mounting surface, and a guide through-hole formed through the guide, a drawing-out hole cover including a cover body arranged to rotate about an axis parallel to a longitudinal direction or a transverse direction of the seating surface to close the guide through-hole, and a cover through-hole formed through the cover body to guide the opposite end of the wire, and a limiter arranged to limit a rotation angle of the cover body.
