- Modern life can be very busy and exhausting. Many people are suffering from chronic fatigue because of lack of exercise. All kinds of exercise apparatus are thus invented and produced, to help people develop exercise habit or train different muscle group.
- One of the most popular exercise apparatus is the sit-up board. Conventional sit-up board, however, is for only one kind of exercise, sit-up. Repeating the same sit-up exercise can be boring easily. Moreover, limited muscle groups can be trained or exercised provided conventional sit-up board.
- Improved sit-up board therefore produced, with all kinds of additional functions. Some sit-up boards can adjust the decline angle. Some sit-up boards include a spring at the backup plate making doing sit-ups more easily. By adjusting or lowering the difficulty of doing exercise, people can enjoy more fun and confidence using the exercise apparatus. Nevertheless, the exercise mode and the muscle group trained are still limited.
- Some exercise apparatus further combine multiple exercise machines into one apparatus, to provide versatile exercise mode, such as sit-up, rowing, running, weight training, etc. All these exercise modes can't be performed at one time though. One exercise is to be performed at one time. As a result, the muscle group trained is still limited in each exercise session, And since these exercises are standard and common, it can get boring easily and not ideal for those who start on developing an exercise hobby.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a rope pulling exercise apparatus according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.FIG. 2 is a partial perspective view of arope base 200 and two pullingsets 300 of the rope pulling to exercise apparatus ofFIG. 1 .FIG. 3 is an exploded view ofFIG. 2 .FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view ofFIG. 2 . - The rope pulling exercise apparatus includes an
exercise base 100, therope base 200, and the pulling sets 300. Theexercise base 100 can include aseat 110 and abackrest 120, for performing sit-up exercise. The rope base along an exercise direction P has afirst end 210 and asecond end 220. Thefirst end 210 is pivotally connected to theexercise base 100. The pulling sets 300 are disposed side by side at therope base 200. - Each pulling set 300 further includes three intermediary pulleys, a
pivot base 340, a pivot-base pulley 350, and arope 360. The three intermediary pulleys are a firstintermediary pulley 310, a secondintermediary pulley 320, and a thirdintermediary pulley 330. The firstintermediary pulley 310 is pivotally disposed at thefirst end 210 of therope base 200. The secondintermediary pulley 320 is pivotally disposed at thesecond end 220 of therope base 200. And the thirdintermediary pulley 330 is pivotally disposed at thefirst end 210 of therope base 200. An axial direction of the firstintermediary pulley 310 and an axial direction of the thirdintermediary pulley 330 are parallel. - The
pivot base 340 is pivotally joined to thesecond end 220 of therope base 200, and a swing direction R of the pivot base is relative to the exercise direction P. The pivot-base pulley 350 is pivotally connected to thepivot base 340. Therope 360 has one end connected to therope base 200, and therope 360 is wound around the pulleys in an order of the thirdintermediary pulley 330, the secondintermediary pulley 320, the firstintermediary pulley 310 and the pivot-base pulley 350. The other end of therope 360 is for pulling along the to exercise direction P. - When a user pulling the
rope 360 along the exercise direction P, the pulling direction may be varied due to human's fatigue and unstable force output. As the pulling direction varying, thepivot base 340 can swing along the swing direction R, thus prevent therope 360 from robbed. As a result, the wear of therope 360 can be greatly prevented, and the life of the rope pulling exercise apparatus can be prolonged. - Furthermore, the
rope 360 can be an elastic rope. Thefirst end 210 of therope base 200 can further have two fixingpart 211, for determining a predetermined angle between therope base 200 and theexercise base 100, is worth to notice that theexercise base 100 does not require theseat 110 or thebackrest 120. Theexercise base 100 could be efficient as far as being able to perform sit-up exercise. - Moreover, this embodiment of the rope pulling exercise apparatus shown in
FIGS. 1-4 adopts three intermediary pulleys, namely the firstintermediary pulley 310, the secondintermediary pulley 320, and the thirdintermediary pulley 330.
