Definitions

  • a fitness exercise apparatus comprises a main frame, a seat frame, a swing frame, an elastic cord unit, a pulling unit and an operating unit.
  • the main frame includes a base member configured to be disposed on a support surface, a support unit disposed on the base member, and a slide bar that is disposed on the support unit, that extends along a horizontal direction, and that has a first end and a second end opposite to each other along the horizontal direction, and a middle portion between the first and second ends.
  • the pulling unit includes three first pulley sets disposed on the base member and the support unit, two first cables each of which is looped around the first pulley sets and connectable with at least one of the first elastic cords, a second pulley set including a plurality of pulleys disposed on the main frame, the seat frame and the swing frame, and a second cable looped around the pulleys of the second pulley set and connectable with at least one of the second elastic cords.
  • the operating unit is connectable with the first cables.
  • the horizontal rod 1276 is inserted through a front portion of the base member 11, and has two opposite ends respectively connected to the legs 1272 such that the horizontal rod 1276 is opposite to the bight portion 1273.
  • a pair of foot pedals 128 are mounted on the bight portion 1273.
  • the cross bar 124 is positioned on top of the pair of support plates 129 in proximity to the rod 1291, and has two opposite ends respectively located on left and right sides of the support post 123 along the horizontal direction (X) and respectively provided with an L-shaped plate 1241.
  • the operating unit 60 includes two handles 61, an upper pull rod 62 and a lower pull rod 63.
  • the handles 61 may be connected detachably and respectively to the second ends 527 of the second cable sections 523 of the first cables 52 or the first ends 522 of the first cable sections 521 of the first cables 52 depending on the training exercise.
  • the upper pull rod 62 is detachably connected to the second end of the auxiliary cable 57, and is positioned on a pair of hook members provided on the pair of support plates 129 when not in use.
  • the lower pull rod 63 is detachably connected to the first end of the auxiliary cable 57, and is positioned on a lower portion of the curved rod 1275 when not in use.
  • the seat frame 20 can be moved smoothly along the ground surface.
  • the first end of the second cable section 543 of the second cable 54 is first detached from the first end of the first cable section 541 thereof, and is then hooked to the hook 241 of the cable-hooking mechanism 24 and positioned thereat through the magnet 242, so that the second cable section 543 of the second cable 54 is located below the guide rail 23.
  • the second cable section 543 of the second cable 54 is moved therewith and will not be exposed during movement of the seat frame 20.
  • the seat frame 20 is positioned at the center of the fitness exercise apparatus 100, the second end 524 of the first cable section 521 of each first cable 52 is connected to the second end of one of the first elastic cords 41, and the handles 61 are respectively connected to the first ends 522 of the first cable sections 521 of the first cables 52.
  • the first cable sections 521 of the first cables 52 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the support post 123 and are substantially parallel to each other.
  • the upper pull rod 62 is connected to the second end of the auxiliary cable 57.
  • the hands of the user can pull down the upper pull rod 62 to perform a wide grip lat pulldown exercise. If the user sits facing away from the support post 123, a wide grip rear pulldown exercise can be performed (not shown).
  • the seat frame 20 is first positioned on the left (or right) side of the fitness exercise apparatus 100, and the handles 61 are connected to the first ends 522 of the first cable sections 521 of the first cables 52. Afterwards, the user stands on the base member 11, and with his hands gripping the handles 61, the user's arms can then pull the handles 61 to perform a standing bicep curl low pulley exercise.
  • the user may also use one hand to grip one handle 61 so as to perform a one arm bicep curl low pulley exercise; may use two hands to grip one handle 61 to perform a standing close grip bicep curl exercise; or, may use one hand to grip one handle 61 and with his body slanting relative to the fitness exercise apparatus 100 to perform a cross body bicep curl exercise. Further, the user may stand facing away from the support post 123 to perform a reverse standing bicep curl exercise, or may stand facing the support post 123 to perform a standing low pulley cable fly exercise.
  • the above exercises differ only in training the different parts of the user's body, so they are not shown here.
  • FIG. 19 illustrates an assembly similar to that of FIG. 15 , but with a left one of the handles 61 connected to the second end 527 of the second cable section 523 of the first cable 52, and with the first end 522 of the first cable section 521 and the first end 525 of the second cable section 523 of the first cable 52 being interconnected.
  • the user's arms can then pull the handles 61 to move toward and away from each other in an up-down direction to exercise both hands of the user.
  • the second embodiment of the fitness exercise apparatus 100' of this disclosure is shown to be identical to the first embodiment, and differs in that the second ends 524 of the first cable sections 521 of the first cables 52 are respectively connected to at least one of the first elastic cords 41 that are disposed on the two opposite ends of the cross bar 124 such that the first cable sections 521 of the first cables 52 cross each other at a front side of the support post 123.
  • the second end 524 of the first cable section 521 of the first cable 52 located on the right side of the support post 123 is connected to the second end of the at least one of the first elastic cords 41 located on the left side of the support post 123, while the second end 524 of the first cable section 521 of the first cable 52 located on the left side of the support post 123 is connected to the second end of the at least one of the first elastic cords 41 located on the right side of the support post 123, so that the first cable sections 521 of the first cables 52 form a cross shape at the front side of the support post 123.
  • the damping can be changed from 10 to 100 kgs. regardless of the user's sex and age.
  • the combination of the first cables 52 and the first elastic cords 41 and the combination of the second cable 54 and the second elastic cords 42 the range of different kinds of users is wide.
