Abstract
A rowing machine includes a base mount with pulleys, a resistance device, a handle, a transmission member, and a resilient member. The resistance device includes a housing, a shaft having an outer shaft section located outside the housing, and an inner shaft section located inside the housing, a plurality of blades mounted to the inner shaft section, and a transmission wheel mounted to the outer shaft section. The transmission member extends from the handle and has an engagement section engaged with the transmission wheel. The resilient member has a first end disposed to the based mount, and a second end connected with the transmission member in a way that the transmission member and the resilient member wrap around the pulleys. As such, the rowing machine can provide uniform resistance and accurately determine the travel distance of the handle that is pulled by a user.
Description
- The present invention relates generally to exercise apparatus, and more particularly, to a rowing exercise machine.
- The conventional rowing machines employ a handle connected with a long belt wrapping around the shaft of a resistance device for several circumferential windings. When a user pulls the handle backward, the long belt drives the shaft to rotate, thereby providing a desired resistance force against the user. In the recovery phase of the rowing stroke, i.e., in the process that the handle returns to its initial position, the long belt will be rewrapped around the shaft again under an effect of a spring. By preforming the rowing stroke repeatedly, the effect of exercise and fitness can be achieved.
- One of the drawbacks of the above-mentioned conventional rowing machine lies in that the resistance device cannot provide a uniform resistance force to the user during the drive phase of the rowing stroke due to the grounds that the winding body, which is formed by the long blet that is wrapped around the shaft for several windings, will gradually decrease in its diameter during the process that the user pulls the handle backward. This experience is different from the actual rowing stroke of the user that rows a boat on water. Further, the conventional rowing machine uses a sensor to detect the rotational turns of the shaft and then covert the detected turns to the distance that the handle travels. As such, another drawback lies in that the distance the handle travels cannot be accurately calculated due to the grounds that the diameter of the winding body will vary from time to time.
- It is known that there are commercially available rowing machines that can solve the above-mentioned drawbacks. However, these improved rowing machines are generally complexity in structure, resulting in difficulty in maintenance and high manufacturing cost.
- The present invention has been accomplished in view of the above-noted circumstances. It is an objective of the present invention to provide a rowing machine, which can provide a uniform resistance force and accurately calculate the travel distance of the handle pulled by the user, and has a simple structure, such that the rowing machine can be easily maintained.
- To attain the above objective, the present invention provides a rowing machine comprising a base mount, a resistance device, a handle, a transmission member, and a resilient member. The base mount is disposed with a plurality of pulleys. The resistance device includes a housing, a shaft extending from an outside of the housing into the housing, a plurality of blades, and a transmission wheel. The shaft has an outer shaft section located outside the housing, and an inner shaft section located inside the housing. The transmission wheel is mounted to the outer shaft section. The blades are mounted to the inner shaft section. The transmission member extends from the handle and has an engagement section engaged with the transmission wheel. The resilient member has a first end disposed to the based mount, and a second end connected with the transmission member in a way that the transmission member and the resilient member combinedly form a continuous member wrapping around the pulleys. As a result, the rowing machine can provide a uniform resistance force and accurately determine the travel distance of the handle that is pulled by a user, and has a simple structure, such that the rowing machine can be easily maintained.
- Further scope of applicability of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description given hereinafter. However, it should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description.
- The present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description given herein below and the accompanying drawings which are given by way of illustration only, and thus are not limitative of the present invention, and wherein:
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a rowing machine according to a first embodiment of the present invention; -
FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line 2-2 ofFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a part of the rowing machine of the first embodiment of the present invention; -
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a part of a rowing machine according to a second embodiment of the present invention; -
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a rowing machine according to a third embodiment of the present invention; and -
FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a rowing machine according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. - Hereunder four embodiments are given for illustrating the structural features and effects of the present invention. As shown in
FIG. 1 , arowing machine 1 provided by a first embodiment of the present invention is composed of abase mount 10, aresistance device 20, aseat 30, afoot pedal rack 32, ahandle 34, atransmission member 40 and aresilient member 48. - The
base mount 10 comprises twoguide rails 12 extending in a longitudinal direction, afront fastening rack 14 disposed on the front ends of the twoguide rails 12, arear fastening rack 16 disposed on the rear ends of the twoguide rails 12, and a plurality ofpulleys 18 mounted to thefront fastening rack 14 and therear fastening rack 16, respectively. - As shown in
FIG. 2 , theresistance device 20 comprises ahousing 22, ashaft 24 extending from an outside of thehousing 22 into an inside of thehousing 22, a plurality ofblades 26, and atransmission wheel 28. Thehousing 22 is shaped like a flat cylindrical container in which water or other fluid is filled. Theshaft 24 extends vertically and has anouter shaft section 241 located outside and below thehousing 22, and aninner shaft section 242 located inside thehousing 22. Theblades 26 are mounted to theinner shaft section 22 and located inside thehousing 22. Thetransmission wheel 28, which is realized as a gear in this embodiment, is coaxially mounted to theouter shaft section 241. Further, a one-way bearing 29 is disposed between thetransmission wheel 28 and theouter shaft section 241. - The
seat 30 is disposed on theguide rails 12 of thebase mount 10 in a way that theseat 30 is forwardly and backwardly moveable along theguide rails 12. Thefoot pedal rack 32 is disposed on thebase mount 10 and located in front of theseat 30 and behind theresistance device 20. - The
handle 34 is connected with an end of thetransmission member 40. As shown inFIG. 3 , thetransmission member 40 is composed of abelt section 42 and anengagement section 44. Thebelt section 42 is formed by an elongated flat belt, which extends forwardly from thehandle 34 to a front side of thebase mount 10, then wraps around afirst pulley 18 a and extends downwardly to a bottom side of thebase mount 10, then wraps around asecond pulley 18 b, which is mounted to the front fasteningrack 14, and extends backwardly to a rear side of thebase mount 10, and then wraps around athird pulley 18 c, which is mounted to therear fastening rack 16, extends forwardly to the bottom side of thebase mount 10 and connects theengagement section 44. Thereafter, theengagement section 44, which is realized as a toothed belt in this embodiment, wraps around thetransmission wheel 28, extends backwardly to the rear side of thebase mount 10 and connects theresilient member 48. Thereafter, theresilient member 48, which is realized as a resilient rope in this embodiment, wraps around afourth pulley 18 d, which is mounted to therear fastening rack 16, extends forwardly to the front side of thebase mount 10 and connects thefront fastening rack 14 of thebase mount 10. In this embodiment, thetransmission member 40 and theresilient member 48 can be combinedly considered as acontinuous member 50. In this way, thecontinuous member 50 wraps around thepulleys 18. - When a user holds and then pulls the
handle 34 backward, thebelt section 42 drives theengagement section 44, which is engaged with thetransmission wheel 28, to move to further drive thetransmission wheel 28 to rotate, such that theblades 26 rotate and stir the water in thehousing 22, thereby providing a resistance force against the user. Because theengagement section 44 wraps around thetransmission wheel 28 less than one turn, namely theengagement section 44 does not wrap around the shaft for several windings as the conventional rowing machine does, the rotational speed of the shaft or the torque exerting on the shaft will not vary due to the change of the diameter of the winding body, such that theresistance device 20 can provide a uniform resistance force to the user in the drive phase of the rowing stroke. When the user pulls thehandle 34 to a rear limit position and releases the pulling force, the rebounding force of the stretchedresilient member 48 will drive theengagement section 44 to move thetransmission member 40 back to its initial state. During this recovery phase of the rowing stroke, thetransmission wheel 28 will run idle relative to theshaft 24 thanks to help of the one-way bearing 29, such that thetransmission member 40 can smoothly return to its initial position. - With the above-disclosed technical features, the
rowing machine 1 of the present invention can provide a uniform resistance force to the user during the drive phase of the rowing stroke, which is much like a real rowing stroke when the user rows a boat on water. Further, therowing machine 1 of the present invention has a simple structure that can be easily maintained, thereby easing the monetary burden of the consumers. Furthermore, when the user pulls thehandle 34 backward, the travel distance of thehandle 34 is simply proportional to the number of rotational turns of theshaft 24 or thetransmission wheel 28. Therefore, the travel distance of thehandle 34 can be accurately calculated by measuring the number of rotational turns of theshaft 24 or thetransmission wheel 28. Moreover, the route arrangement of thetransmission member 40 and theresilient member 48 can make sure that the user can receive the effect of theresistance device 20 properly during the drive phase of the rowing stroke, and theresilient member 48 can provide a proper rebounding force to return thetransmission member 40 back to its initial position without or less providing a resistance to the user during the recovery phase of the rowing stroke. - Based on the technical features of the present invention, various modifications to the structure of the
rowing machine 1 may be made. For example, the number and positions of thepulleys 18 may be changed, the one-way bearing 29 may be omitted, the route arrangement of thetransmission member 40 and theresilient member 48 may be modified according to various requirements, thetransmission member 40 may be configured as having theengagement section 44 in its entire length without thebelt section 42, theengagement section 44 may be configured as a chain or other structure having similar function thereof, and thetransmission wheel 28 may be configured as a sprocket wheel or other structure having similar function thereof in association with theengagement section 44. - The mounting position and arrangement of the
resistance device 20 may be changed. For example,FIG. 4 shows arowing machine 2 according to a second embodiment of the present invention, which is similar in structure to therowing machine 1 of the first embodiment with the difference lying in that theouter shaft section 63 of theshaft 62 of theresistance device 60 is located above a top side of thehousing 64. Further,FIG. 5 shows arowing machine 3 according to a third embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, thehousing 72 of theresistance device 70 is vertically arranged in a way that the outer shaft section (not shown) of the shaft (not shown) is located at a right side of thehousing 72. Moreover,FIG. 6 shows arowing machine 4 according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention, in which theresistance device 80 is located behind theseat 82. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the scope of the invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
