Further, the resistance of the handles to being twisted and rotated may be adjusted, thereby enabling a user to increase or decrease the resistance of the handles to being twisted in order to adjust to the level of difficulty desired.
- Referring now to the figures, an exemplary embodiment of the
exercise device 10 may comprise a pair ofhandles 16, such as cylindrical rods, that may be partially enclosed in a housing. The twohandles 16 may be situated such that they form an angle of less than 180 degrees between the twohandles 16. In one exemplary embodiment, the twohandles 16 may be situated such that they form an angle of approximately 90 degrees between the twohandles 16 in order to better optimize the ergonomics of theexercise device 10. - A user may use one hand to grip one
handle 16 of theexercise device 10 and may use another hand to grip theother handle 16 of theexercise device 10, and may exercise his body by twisting thehandles 16 of thedevice 10 so that thehandles 16 rotate about its axis. To adjust the resistance of thehandles 16 to rotating about its axis, the user may adjust atension handle 18 that may be part of a resistance adjuster of theexercise device 10. In one exemplary embodiment, the user may rotate thetension handle 18 in one direction in order to equally increase the resistance of bothhandles 16 and may rotate thetension handle 18 in an opposite direction in order to equally decrease the resistance of thehandles 16. In another exemplary embodiment, thetension handle 18 may be connected to the housing and may be situated so that it juts out of the housing and bisects the angle formed by the twohandles 16. - Further, The housing may be shaped to allow the two
handles 16 to be situated such that the two handles 16 form an angle between them of less than 180 degrees and more typically approximately 90 degrees, such as by situating eachhandle 16 such that they are each 45 degrees from vertical in opposite directions, in order to provide better ergonomics for a user of theexercise device 10. In one exemplary embodiment, the housing may be molded such that the angle between thehandles 16 remains stationary. In another exemplary embodiment, twohalves bolt pairs 16 that fit intoholes 38 on the housing. - Further, each of the
handles 16 may have a portion exterior to the housing and a portion inside the housing. The portion of thehandles 16 exterior to the housing may be wrapped with a handle grip. The portion of thehandles 16 inside the housing may each be in contact with afriction block 34. Retaining washers may be used to secure thehandles 16 and prevent thehandles 16 from slipping out of the housing. The retaining washers may be slid over thehandles 16 and secured via retaining roll pins driven through each of thehandles 16. In one exemplary embodiment, the retaining roll pins may be driven through holes drilled approximately 1⅝ inch from the ends of thehandles 16 situated within the housing. - Each of the two
friction blocks 34 may be situated parallel to one of the twohandles 16 and may comprise a concave shape on the side of thefriction blocks 34 that contact thehandles 16, in order to provide a better fit between thefriction blocks 34 and thehandles 16. Further, the surface of thefriction blocks 34 may be abrasive, in order to create a level of resistance as thehandles 16 rotate against the sides of thefriction blocks 34. Atension block 32 may be situated between thefriction blocks 34 and may contact both of thefriction blocks 34 at the same time. In an exemplary embodiment, the resistance of thehandles 16 rotating about its axis may be determined by the level of pressure put on thehandles 16 by thefriction blocks 34, such as how tightly the friction blocks 34 contact thehandles 16. - A
tension handle 18 may be connected to a threadedcylindrical rod 20. The threadedcylindrical rod 20 may thread through aflange weld nut 24 having a threaded interior so that a portion of the threadedcylindrical rod 20 may be situated within the housing of the device past theflange weld nut 24. In an exemplary embodiment, theflange weld nut 24 may be inserted into a slot in the housing at a position that bisects the angle created by thehandles 16. Atension roll pin 22 may be inserted perpendicularly through a drilled hole in the threadedcylindrical rod 20 and may stick out of both sides of the threadedcylindrical rod 20. Thetension roll pin 22 may be positioned such that theflange weld nut 24 may be situated between thetension roll pin 22 and the portion of the threadedcylindrical rod 20 outside of the housing. In an exemplary embodiment, the drilled hole may be approximately ½ inch from an end of the threadedcylindrical rod 20 enclosed within the housing. The threadedcylindrical rod 20 may be threaded through the tension washer 26 so that thetension washer 26 may be supported by the threadedcylindrical rod 20 and thetension roll pin 22. - A
tension spring 30 may be placed around the threadedcylindrical rod 20 so that the tension washer 26 may support thetension spring 30. Thetension spring 30 may contact and press into a hole in thetension block 32, thus causing thetension block 32 to more tightly contact thefriction blocks 34, such that an equal amount of resistance may be applied to both of the twohandles 16 by thetension block 32. - As a user rotates the
tension handle 18, such as by turning thetension handle 18 clockwise, the threadedcylindrical rod 20 may rotate and move towards thetension block 32, thus causing thetension spring 30 to put more pressure onto thetension block 32, thus causing thetension block 32 to even more tightly contact thefriction blocks 34, thus causing thefriction blocks 34 to even more tightly contact thehandles 16, and thus increasing the resistance of thehandles 16 by making it harder for thehandles 16 to rotate about their axes. - As the user then rotates the
tension handle 18 in another direction, such as by turning thetension handle 18 counter-clockwise, the threadedcylindrical rod 20 may then rotate and move away from thetension block 32, thus causing thetension spring 30 to lessen its pressure onto thetension block 32, thus causing thetension block 32 to lessen its pressure on thefriction blocks 34, thus causing thefriction blocks 34 to lessen its pressure on thehandles 16, and thus decreasing the resistance of thehandles 16 by making it easier for thehandles 16 to rotate about their axes. - In one exemplary embodiment, the handles may be typically made of aluminum tubing, but may be made of various materials such as, but not limited to wood, plastic, aluminum, steel or any other metal or metal alloy. The handle grips may typically be made of plastic, but may be made of various materials such as but not limited to rubber, plastic, neoprene, or foam. The housing may be typically made of plastic, but may be made of various materials such as but not limited to cast iron, plastic, or milled aluminum. The tension block may typically be made of plastic, but may be made of various material such as but not limited to wood, aluminum, cast iron, or plastic. The friction blocks may typically made of a polyoxymetylene plastic such as DELRIN™, but may be made of various material such as but not limited to TEFLON™, DELRIN™, nylon, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, or polypropylene. The tension spring may typically be made of spring steel, but may be made of any suitable material. The retaining washers may typically be made of plastic, but may be made of various material such as but not limited to steel, aluminum, or plastic. The handle grips may typically be attached to the handles via adhesives, but may be attached via any suitable means.
- It should be understood, of course, that the foregoing relates to exemplary embodiments of the invention and that modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth in the following claims.
