運動機20具有框架22,其包括縱向延伸之基座構件24。水平延伸之穩定器構件26自基座構件24之前部及後部延伸,且防止運動機20在水平方向H上傾翻。各穩定器構件26具有用於將框架22支撐在地面上方之支腳28。框架22具有向前支撐柱30,其自基座構件24之前部向上豎直地延伸。角撐板32相對於基座構件24支住且支撐向前支撐柱30。橋接器34安裝在向前支撐柱30之頂部上。橋接器34具有水平延伸之主體36,其具有自其向後延伸之相對的第一及第二臂38。因而,橋接器34通常具有U形且在進行步幅健身運動期間為使用者身體及/或手臂在臂38之間界定「活動區」。大體梯形的固定把手42在臂38之間穩固地安裝在主體36上,且供操作運動機20之使用者手動地抓握。

在運動機20之後部處,徑向相對的曲柄臂62具有鍵合至(固定至)中心軸60之徑向內端,使得曲柄臂62保持彼此徑向相對(亦即,相隔180度),且使得曲柄臂62及中心軸60之旋轉引起滑輪輪子56圍繞由中心軸60界定之滑輪輪子樞軸64的旋轉。滑輪輪子56之旋轉係藉由阻力機構52經由電磁體66來抵抗,如如習知一樣且如本領域中眾所周知。At the rear of the
運動機20進一步具有居中位於框架22之相對側上的第一及第二踏板構件68。踏板構件68在縱向方向L上係細長的,其各自具有:中心部分70;前部部分72,其自中心部分70大體向前且向上延伸;及後部部分74,其自中心部分70大體向後且向上延伸至尾部部分76,該尾部部分自後部部分74向後延伸且大體但不一定平行於中心部分70。
在運動機20之後部處,第一及第二細長步幅連桿78藉由例如軸承在步幅連桿-曲柄臂樞軸80處可自由旋轉地(可自由樞轉地)耦接至相對曲柄臂62之徑向外端。各步幅連桿78具有第一端部,其在步幅連桿-踏板構件樞軸82處可樞轉地耦接至踏板構件68之各別的尾部部分76。各步幅連桿78具有相對的第二端部,其在步幅連桿-惰輪連桿樞軸86處可樞轉地耦接至細長惰輪連桿84之遠端或後端。惰輪連桿84之相對的近端或前端在惰輪連桿-基座構件樞軸88處可樞轉地耦接至基座構件24。如圖式中所說明,步幅連桿-曲柄臂樞軸80沿著步幅連桿78位於步幅連桿-踏板構件樞軸82與步幅連桿-惰輪連桿樞軸86之間,且尤其距步幅連桿-踏板構件樞軸82比距步幅連桿-惰輪連桿樞軸86更接近。在其他實例中,樞軸80處於步幅連桿78之中心處,或更接近樞軸86。At the rear of the

運動機20進一步具有第一及第二搖臂92,其藉由調整裝置94可樞轉地耦接至框架22,此在本文中將在下文進一步描述。調整裝置94之類型及組態可改變,且額外實例在圖11至圖20中所說明的實例中說明,並且在下文進一步描述。搖臂92具有上端部分96、下端部分98及位於上端部分96與下端部分98之間的肘形部分100,使得上端部分96及下端部分98相對於彼此成角度地延伸。下端部分98在搖臂-踏板構件樞軸102處可樞轉地耦接至踏板構件68之前部部分72,使得踏板構件68可相對於搖臂92可樞轉地移動,且亦使得搖臂92相對於框架22之樞轉引起踏板構件68相對於框架22之相當的樞轉及/或平移,亦即使得此等組件相對於框架22在一起樞轉及/或平移。
參考圖3、圖4、圖6及圖7,調整裝置94位於橋接器34中,且在活動區之兩側延伸至經提及臂38中。調整裝置94經特定組態以促進分別選擇性地調整且設定搖臂92相對於框架22之位置,尤其樞軸108之位置,藉此在步幅健身運動期間分別改變腳墊90之橢圓行進路徑的傾斜形狀,如本文中將在下文進一步描述。可基於經儲存健身程式或基於由操作員對控制台44之輸入而由經提及控制器控制調整裝置94。舉例而言,此可經由觸控式螢幕、固定把手42上之輸入按鈕48及/或握柄125之上端上之輸入按鈕來加以控制。如將自所說明實例及以下描述顯而易見,調整裝置94之類型及組態可改變。Referring to FIGS. 3 , 4 , 6 and 7 , the
在圖1至圖10中所說明的第一實例中,調整裝置94包括第一及第二傾斜連桿104,其可將搖臂92之上部部分96可樞轉地耦接至框架22。更具體言之,傾斜連桿104具有上部部分,其在傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106處可樞轉地耦接至框架22。傾斜連桿104進一步具有下部部分,其在傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108處可樞轉地耦接至搖臂92之上端部分96,該傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸通常位於傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106下方。習知的軸承支撐經提及耦接件,使得傾斜連桿104可相對於經提及軸線106、108樞轉。In a first example illustrated in FIGS. 1-10 , the
調整裝置94經組態以使第一及第二傾斜連桿104相對於框架22(亦即,圍繞傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106)樞轉,以藉此調整且設定搖臂92相對於框架22之位置,尤其調整且設定傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108相對於框架22(亦即,圍繞傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106)之位置。在所說明的實例中,調整裝置94包括第一及第二線性致動器110。應注意,線性致動器110之類型可不同於所說明且描述之內容。在所說明的實例中,線性致動器110包括機電線性致動器,其具有電動齒輪馬達120、導螺桿總成121,以及導螺母及管總成125(參見圖6及圖7)。線性致動器110具有前端,其尤其在致動器-橋接器樞軸114處藉由耳軸總成113可樞轉地耦接至橋接器34。線性致動器110具有相對的後端,其在致動器-傾斜連桿樞軸118處可樞轉地耦接至傾斜連桿104(參見圖6)。最佳地在圖7中之分解視圖中所見之習知的軸承在致動器-傾斜連桿樞軸118處支撐耦接件。致動器-傾斜連桿樞軸118相對於傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106及傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108向前偏移。在所說明的非限制性實例中,傾斜連桿104為大體三角形的板構件,其中傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106、傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108及致動器-傾斜連桿樞軸118位於三角形之各別的三個頂點處。The
齒輪馬達120、導螺桿總成121以及導螺母及管總成125經組態以根據來自經提及控制器之輸入命令來延長或縮短線性致動器110,此可基於對控制台44之操作員輸入或基於經提及控制器中之程式,如上文所描述。齒輪馬達120在第一方向上之操作使導螺桿總成121之導螺桿123在第一方向上旋轉,從而使得導螺母及管總成125沿著導螺桿123向外且相對於線性致動器110之外殼119向外行進,因此延長線性致動器110。齒輪馬達120在相反的第二方向上之操作使導螺桿123在第二方向上相反地旋轉,從而使導螺母及管總成125相對於外殼119向內縮回,因此縮短線性致動器110。由於傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106、傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108、致動器-橋接器樞軸114及致動器-傾斜連桿樞軸118之相對位置,線性致動器110之延伸使傾斜連桿104沿著弧形相對於橋接器34向後樞轉,從而使傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108沿著弧形相對於傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106相對於框架22向後移動。如本文中在下文所說明且描述,此在步幅運動期間增加或提高腳墊90之橢圓路徑之傾斜。相反地,縮短線性致動器110使傾斜連桿104沿著弧形相對於傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106沿著弧形相對於橋接器34向前樞轉。此使傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108沿著弧形相對於框架22向前移動。如本文中在下文所說明且描述,此在步幅運動期間縮減或降低腳墊90之橢圓路徑之傾斜。The
值得注意的是,調整裝置94不需要包括兩個致動器,如第一實例中所展示。在其他實例中,經由例如電動馬達、蝸輪、滑輪及/或用於引起上文所提及之對軸線之相對位置的調整之任何其他習知的機構,使用連接至兩個傾斜連桿104之單個調整裝置。圖11至圖20中說明額外實例,其在本文中將在下文描述。It is worth noting that the adjustment means 94 need not comprise two actuators, as shown in the first example. In other examples, a motor connected to the two
參考圖1至圖5,運動機20具有可移動手柄構件122,其在手柄構件-橋接器樞軸124處可樞轉地耦接至橋接器34之相對側。各手柄構件122具有上端,該上端具有供進行步幅健身運動之使用者手動地抓握之握柄125。各手柄構件122具有下端,該下端在手柄構件-耦接器連桿樞軸128處可樞轉地耦接至耦接器連桿126。因此,手柄構件122及各別的耦接器連桿126圍繞手柄構件-橋接器樞軸124在一起樞轉,且耦接器連桿126可相對於手柄構件122圍繞手柄構件-耦接器連桿樞軸128樞轉。各耦接器連桿126具有:前端部分130,其在手柄構件-耦接器連桿樞軸128處耦接至手柄構件122;及後端部分132,其在耦接器連桿-踏板構件樞軸134處可樞轉地耦接至踏板構件68之中心部分70。因此,耦接器連桿126可相對於踏板構件68圍繞耦接器連桿-踏板構件樞軸134樞轉。肘形部分136位於前端部分130與後端部分132之間,使得前端部分130相對於後端部分132向上成角度地延伸。因而,站立在腳墊90上且手動地抓握握柄125之使用者可替代地推拉握柄125以藉此經由耦接器連桿126對踏板構件68施加推拉力,從而輔助步幅健身運動,如本文中將在下文進一步描述。Referring to FIGS. 1-5 , the
圖8至圖10為運動機20在低傾斜(圖8)、中等傾斜(圖9)及高傾斜(圖10)期間之示意圖,其展示腳墊90之行進路徑A1至A3及步幅連桿-踏板構件樞軸82之行進路徑B1至B3。在各圖中,搖臂92具有不同的擺動範圍位置,其係由調整裝置94之位置來判定。圖8說明低傾斜,其中線性致動器110縮回且因此傾斜連桿104圍繞傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106朝向橋接器34(亦即,在圖8中所說明的側視圖中圍繞傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106順時針)樞轉。此使得傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108沿著弧形朝向橋接器34移動,且經由搖臂92與踏板構件68之連接,定位腳墊90,以便遵循低傾斜橢圓行進路徑A1。圖9說明中等傾斜,其中線性致動器110經中等地延伸,且因此傾斜連桿104圍繞傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106遠離橋接器34樞轉(亦即,自圖9中所說明的側視圖圍繞傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106逆時針樞轉)。此使得傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108沿著弧形遠離橋接器34移動,且經由搖臂92與踏板構件68之連接,定位腳墊90,以遵循中等傾斜橢圓行進路徑A2。圖10說明高傾斜情形,其中線性致動器110經進一步延伸,且因此傾斜連桿104圍繞傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106遠離橋接器34樞轉(亦即,自圖10中所說明的側視圖圍繞傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106進一步逆時針樞轉)。此使得傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108沿著弧形進一步遠離橋接器34移動,且經由搖臂92與踏板構件68之連接,定位腳墊90,以遵循高傾斜橢圓行進路徑A3。重要的在於理解,圖8至圖10中所說明的三個位置係例示性的,且其他位置經由調整裝置94之操作係可能的,此可藉由控制台44之程式化及/或藉由對控制台44之輸入及/或輸入按鈕48及/或諸如在握柄125之上端上之其他輸入按鈕而受自動控制。FIGS. 8-10 are schematic views of
藉由圖8至圖10之比較,可看出,運動機20有利地經組態以貫穿藉由調整裝置94進行之調整來維持行進路徑A1至A3之實質上緊湊且恆定的長度(在長度方向L上)。各種組件之組態有利地佔據相對較小佔據面積。搖臂92之端部有利地不擺動超過框架22之前部,因此維持小佔據面積。由於上文所說明且描述之步幅連桿組態之組態,行進路徑B1至B3亦為實質上恆定的。包括步幅連桿78之後部連桿有利地不擺動超過框架22之後部部分,因此維持小佔據面積。可移動手柄構件122及耦接器連桿126之組態之有利之處在於,儘管經由調整裝置94之傾斜改變,但整個移動路徑(亦即,手柄構件122圍繞手柄構件-橋接器樞軸124之擺動範圍)實質上係恆定的。From a comparison of FIGS. 8-10 , it can be seen that
有利地,腳墊90位於踏板構件68上,在搖臂-踏板構件樞軸102後方一定距離處,以產生行進路徑A1至A3之較自然的豎直高度。此特徵以及行進路徑B1至B3在所有傾斜設定中均產生較自然且平穩的行進路徑A1至A3。並且,如上文所描述之傾斜連桿行進所沿著之行進路徑(弧形)朝向後部行進部分朝向高傾斜向上傾斜。此在調整至高傾斜設定時為整個橢圓形高度裁減/增加一些額外豎直高度。Advantageously, the
圖11至圖12說明運動機20a之第二實例。諸圖僅展示運動機20a之橋接器34a之態樣。應理解,在非限制性實例中,運動機20a之其餘部分經組態成與圖1至圖7中所展示及上文所描述之運動機20相同。相似特徵係運用具有「a」標識之相似參考數字來指代。11 to 12 illustrate a second example of the
類似於第一實例,運動機20a具有向前支撐柱30a及安裝在向前支撐柱30a之頂部上的橋接器34a,且具有水平延伸之主體36a,其具有自其向後延伸之相對的第一及第二臂38a。運動機20a具有調整裝置94a,其位於橋接器34a上且在活動區之兩側上延伸至經提及臂38a中。調整裝置94a經特定組態以促進分別選擇性地調整且設定搖臂92a相對於框架22a之位置,藉此改變橢圓行進路徑之傾斜形狀,如上文關於第一實例所描述。正如第一實例,經提及控制器可基於經儲存健身程式或基於操作員之輸入來控制調整裝置94a。Similar to the first example, the
類似於第一實例,調整裝置94a經組態以使第一及第二傾斜連桿104a相對於框架(亦即,圍繞傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106a)樞轉,以藉此調整且設定搖臂92a相對於框架22a之位置,尤其調整且設定傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108a相對於框架22a(亦即,圍繞傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106a)之位置。在所說明的實例中,調整裝置94a包括第一及第二導螺桿總成121a,其為旋轉裝置,該等旋轉裝置具有尤其在致動器-橋接器樞軸114a處藉由耳軸總成113a可樞轉地耦接至橋接器34a之前端。調整裝置94a進一步包括第一及第二導螺母及管總成125a,其各自具有在致動器-傾斜連桿樞軸118a處可樞轉地耦接至傾斜連桿104a之相對的後端。類似於第一實例,致動器-傾斜連桿樞軸118a相對於傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106a及傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108a向前偏移。Similar to the first example, the
調整裝置94a亦具有致動器,其在所說明的實例中為安裝至橋接器34a之向前部分及滑輪總成200之電動齒輪馬達120a。齒輪馬達120a具有輸出軸,其與滑輪總成200可旋轉地接合。滑輪總成200之組態可不同於所展示內容,只要其經組態以使得齒輪馬達120a之操作致動第一及第二導螺桿總成121a即可,如下文所描述。在所說明的實例中,滑輪總成200包含:驅動滑輪輪子202,其耦接至齒輪馬達120a之輸出軸且與其一起旋轉;中心導輪輪子204,其沿著主體36a之向前部分在驅動滑輪輪子202上方可旋轉地安裝至橋接器34a;一對側導輪輪子206,其位於驅動滑輪輪子202與中心導輪輪子204之間且位於兩者之相對側上;及從動滑輪輪子208,其耦接至導螺桿總成121a之各別的導螺桿123a且與其一起旋轉。滑輪總成200進一步包含:皮帶210,其圍繞驅動滑輪輪子202、主導輪輪子204、側導輪輪子206及從動滑輪輪子208捲繞,如所展示,使得驅動滑輪輪子202藉由齒輪馬達120a之旋轉引起滑輪輪子之其餘部分旋轉。如上文所解釋之受經提及控制器控制的驅動滑輪輪子202藉由齒輪馬達120之旋轉因此引起從動滑輪輪子208之對應的旋轉,從而又使導螺母及管總成125a旋轉且引起該等導螺母及管總成沿著導螺桿123a延伸或縮回。因此,如所屬技術領域中具有通常知識者將自以上描述理解,齒輪馬達120a在第一方向上之操作使導螺桿123a旋轉,從而使導螺母及管總成125a相對於導螺桿123a及外殼119a向外行進,因此延長線性致動器110a,增加軸線114a與118a之間的距離。齒輪馬達120在相反的第二方向上之操作使導螺桿123a在第二方向上相反地旋轉,從而使導螺母及管總成125a相對於導螺桿外殼119a沿著導螺桿123a向內縮回,因此縮短線性致動器110a,減小軸線114a與118a之間的距離。類似於第一實例,由於傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106a、傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108a、致動器-橋接器樞軸114a及致動器-傾斜連桿樞軸118a之相對位置,導螺母及管總成125之延伸使傾斜連桿104a沿著弧形相對於橋接器34a向後樞轉,從而使傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108a沿著弧形相對於傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106a相對於框架22a向後移動,如圖12中之箭頭所展示。如上文所描述,此在步幅運動期間增加或提高腳墊90之橢圓路徑之傾斜。相反地,縮回導螺母及管總成125使傾斜連桿104a沿著弧形相對於傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106a沿著弧形相對於橋接器34a向前樞轉。此使傾斜連桿-搖臂樞軸108a沿著弧形相對於框架22a向前移動。如本文中在下文所說明且描述,此在步幅運動期間縮減或降低腳墊90a之橢圓路徑之傾斜。
圖13及圖14說明運動機20b之第三實例。諸圖僅展示運動機20b之橋接器34b之態樣。應理解,在非限制性實例中,運動機20b之其餘部分經組態成與圖1至圖7中所展示及上文所描述之運動機20相同。相似特徵係運用具有「b」標識之相似參考數字來指代。13 and 14 illustrate a third example of the
類似於第一及第二實例,運動機20b具有向前支撐柱30b及橋接器34b,該橋接器安裝在向前支撐柱30b之頂部上且具有水平延伸之主體36b,該水平延伸之主體具有自其向後延伸之相對的第一及第二臂38b。運動機20b具有調整裝置94b,其位於橋接器34b中且在活動區之兩側上延伸至經提及臂38b中。調整裝置94b經特定組態以促進分別選擇性地調整且設定搖臂92b相對於框架22b之位置,藉此在步幅健身運動期間分別改變腳墊90之橢圓行進路徑的傾斜形狀,如本文中將在下文進一步描述。可基於經儲存健身程式或基於由操作員對控制台44之輸入而由經提及控制器控制調整裝置94b。Similar to the first and second examples, the
不同於上文所描述之第一及第二實例,調整裝置94b不包括用於將搖臂92b可樞轉地耦接至框架22b之第一及第二傾斜連桿。調整裝置94b不經組態以使第一及第二傾斜連桿相對於框架(亦即,圍繞傾斜連桿-框架樞軸106a)樞轉。相比之下,調整裝置94b包括第一及第二線性致動器110b,其在所說明的實例中包括機電線性致動器,該機電線性致動器具有:電動齒輪馬達120b;導螺桿總成121b,其具有固定地耦接至橋接器34b之前端;以及導螺母及管總成125b,其具有在調整裝置-搖臂樞軸300處可樞轉地耦接至搖臂92b之上部部分的相對後端。Unlike the first and second examples described above, the
齒輪馬達120b、導螺桿總成121b以及導螺母及管總成125b經組態以根據來自經提及控制器之輸入命令來延長或縮短線性致動器110b,此可基於對控制台44之操作員輸入或基於經提及控制器中之程式。齒輪馬達120b在第一方向上之操作使導螺桿總成121b之導螺桿123b在第一方向上旋轉,從而使導螺母及管總成125b相對於導螺桿總成121b向外行進,因此延長線性致動器110b。齒輪馬達120b在相反的第二方向上之操作使導螺桿123b在第二方向上相反地旋轉,從而使導螺母及管總成125b相對於導螺桿總成121b向內縮回,因此縮短線性致動器110b。搖臂92b之上部部分96b藉由托架302耦接至導螺母及管總成125b。托架302沿著一對引導件304滑動且由該等引導件支撐,該等引導件為穩固地安裝至橋接器34b之臂38b的軸。各軸具有光滑的外表面,托架302在導螺桿123b旋轉時沿著該光滑的外表面滑動。因此,應理解,線性致動器110b之延伸使搖臂92b之上部部分96b向後線性地移動,因此使調整裝置-搖臂樞軸300相對於框架22b向後移動。此在步幅運動期間增加或提高腳墊90之橢圓路徑之傾斜。線性致動器110b之縮回使搖臂92b之上部部分向前線性地移動,因此使調整裝置-搖臂樞軸300相對於框架22b向前移動。此在步幅運動期間縮減或降低腳墊90之橢圓路徑之傾斜。不同於前述實例,由線性致動器110b提供之調整裝置-搖臂樞軸300之運動係直線性的,而非沿著弧形。The
圖15至圖17說明運動機20c之第四實例。諸圖僅展示運動機20c之橋接器34c之態樣。應理解,在非限制性實例中,運動機20c之其餘部分經組態成與圖1至圖7中所展示及上文所描述之運動機20相同。相似特徵係運用具有「c」標識之相似參考數字來指代。15 to 17 illustrate a fourth example of the
如可自圖式看出,第四實例與第三實例相似,不同之處在於電動齒輪馬達120c不位於橋接器34c之臂38c內,而實情為安裝至橋接器34c之主體36c之前部部分。齒輪馬達120c藉由齒輪連桿400操作性地耦接至第一及第二導螺桿總成121c。更具體言之,齒輪馬達120c具有輸出軸,該輸出軸具有螺旋形螺紋402,其提供與橫向齒輪404操作性地接合之蝸輪,使得齒輪馬達120c之輸出軸之旋轉使螺旋形螺紋402旋轉,從而又使齒輪404旋轉。齒輪404在齒輪402之任一側上可旋轉地固定至驅動軸406,使得齒輪404之旋轉引起驅動軸406之旋轉。驅動軸406之外端藉由斜齒輪組408耦接至導螺桿總成121c之導螺桿123c,使得驅動軸404之旋轉引起導螺桿123c之旋轉。導螺桿123c之旋轉使導螺母及管總成125c延伸/縮回,如由圖17中之箭頭所展示且類似於上文所描述之第三實例,以在步幅運動期間調整腳墊90之橢圓行進路徑。如圖15至圖17中所展示,齒輪連桿400之實例組態具有第一及第二導螺桿123c(及對應的螺母),該等第一及第二導螺桿分別具有相對螺紋,一個導螺桿具有右側螺紋,另一導螺桿具有左側螺紋,使得齒輪馬達120c在一個方向上之操作同時引起在兩側上之延伸,且使得齒輪馬達120c在相反的方向上之操作同時引起在兩側上縮回。As can be seen from the drawings, the fourth example is similar to the third example, except that the
圖18至20圖說明運動機20d之第五實例。諸圖僅展示運動機20d之橋接器34d之態樣。應理解,在非限制性實例中,運動機20d之其餘部分經組態成與圖1至圖7中所展示且上文所描述之運動機20類似。相似特徵係運用具有「d」標識之相似參考數字來指代。18 to 20 illustrate a fifth example of the
運動機20d之第五實例與第四實例20c相似,不同之處在於托架502d係由包含一系列可伸縮軸504、506、508之引導件支撐,而非由為軸之引導件支撐。齒輪馬達120d之旋轉使齒輪連桿500旋轉,從而又使導螺桿總成121d之導螺桿123d旋轉。此取決於旋轉方向使導螺母及管總成125d延伸或縮回,如上文所描述。使導螺母及管總成125d延伸或縮回使得調整裝置-搖臂樞軸510之位置相對於框架22d向後或向前線性地移動,如上文所描述且如圖19與圖20之比較所展示。托架502d之移動係由可伸縮軸504、506、508支撐,如藉由圖19與圖20之比較所展示。可伸縮軸之數目可不同於所展示數目。可伸縮軸504、506、508有利地提供較緊湊配置,其中托架502d可延伸至橋接器34d之臂38d之外且可縮回至橋接器34d之臂38d中。The fifth example of the exercise machine 2Od is similar to the fourth example 20c, except that the
