Definitions

  • the disclosure relates to an exercise machine, and more particularly to a fitness exercise apparatus.
  • a conventional exercise machine such as the one disclosed in US Patent Application Publication No. US 2002/0077229 A1 includes a frame assembly, a user support assembly connected to the frame assembly, two bungee cord units mounted on the frame assembly, and two cable units respectively connected to the two bungee cord units.
  • a user sits on the user support assembly and pulls the cable units which pulls the bungee cord units, and elastic deformation of the bungee cords provides resistance for the user to train against.
  • the bungee cords in the conventional exercise machine are wrapped over a pulley and the contact between the bungee cords and the pulley generates friction that greatly reduces the service life of the bungee cords. Additionally, the user will have a comparatively more limited range of movement when performing exercises on the conventional exercise machine since the length of travel for the bungee cords and the cables are fixed.
  • the conventional exercise machine has complicated cable connections underneath a seat unit of the user support assembly, this design complicates procedures for detaching the seat unit from the conventional exercise machine.
  • an object of the disclosure is to provide a fitness exercise apparatus that can alleviate at least one of the drawbacks of the prior art.
  • the fitness exercise apparatus includes a main frame, a seat unit, a first elastic unit, two second elastic units, a transmission unit, and an operating unit.
  • the main frame includes a base seat and a support unit that is connected to the base seat.

  • the transmission unit includes a first fixed pulley set, a second fixed pulley set, a main movable pulley set, two third fixed pulley sets, two side movable pulley sets, a first cable, a second cable, and two third cables.
  • Pulling of the first cable drives the main movable pulley set to move upwardly, thereby resulting in, via the second cable, deformation of the first elastic unit against an elastic force of the first elastic unit.
  • Pulling of each of the third cables drives the respective one of the side movable pulley sets to move upwardly, thereby resulting in deformation of the respective one of the second elastic units against an elastic force of the second elastic unit.
