When theswitch 111 is linked to compress thecompression spring 112, thetooth sleeve 116 is detached from thespring sleeve 115, and the initial position of thesecond plate 120 relative to thefirst plate 110 can be adjusted. When theswitch 111 is linked to release thecompression spring 112, thetooth sleeve 116 is pushed to be combined with thespring sleeve 115 through the elastic recovering force of thecompression spring 112, and the initial position of thesecond plate 120 relative to thefirst plate 110 is fixed. Therefore, the initial position of thesecond plate 120 relative to thefirst plate 110 can be adjusted or fixed. When the initial position of thesecond plate 120 relative to thefirst plate 110 is adjusted, different twisting amount of theelastic member 113 is generated thereby generating different elastic recovering force.

When thebelt 121 is rolled toward different directions, theelastic member 131 is linked to be stretched or compressed. Therefore, different directions or different amount of the stretch or compression of the elastic recovering force can be provided. - In
FIG. 6 , thebelt reel 122 and thesecond plate 120 can be combined or detached, therefore the initial position of thesecond plate 120 relative to thefirst plate 110 can be fixed or adjusted. In more detail, thebelt reel 122 is linked with acompression spring 112. When thebelt reel 122 is pushed toward one side, thecompression spring 112 is compressed, thebelt reel 122 is detached from thesecond plate 120, and the initial position of thesecond plate 120 relative to thefirst plate 110 can be adjusted.

InFIG. 8 , when thesecond plate 120 rotates relative to thefirst plate 110, thebelt reel 122 is rotated, and the belt 121 (e.g. a ribbon or a steel cable) is rolled. When thebelt 121 is rolled, theelastic member 131 is stretched, and the elastic recovering force is generated. Similarly, when the initial position of thesecond plate 120 relative to thefirst plate 110 is adjusted, thebelt 121 is rolled by thesecond plate 120, and theelastic member 131 is stretched or compressed by thebelt 121 for generating different amount of stretch or compression, and the elastic recovering force of theelastic member 131 is also different.

InFIG. 11A andFIG. 11B , the initial position of thelever 210 relative to the base 220 can be adjusted or fixed when thebelt reel 212 and thetooth sleeve 218 are linked with theswitch 219 to be detached or combined. In more detail, inFIG. 11A , theswitch 219 is linked with thebelt reel 212, and thebelt reel 212 is linked with thecompression spring 217. When thebelt reel 212 is linked by theswitch 219 to be pushed toward one side, thecompression spring 217 is compressed, thebelt reel 212 is linked to be detached from thetooth sleeve 218, and the initial position of thelever 210 relative to the base 220 can be adjusted. InFIG. 11B , when thebelt reel 212 is released by theswitch 219, thecompression spring 217 is released, thebelt reel 212 is pushed to be combined with thetooth sleeve 218 through the elastic recovering force of thecompression spring 217, and the initial position of thelever 210 relative to the base 220 can be fixed.

Also referring toFIG. 11A andFIG. 11B , the initial position of thelever 210 relative to the base 220 can be adjusted by opening or closing theswitch 219. When the initial position of thelever 210 relative to thebase 220 is adjusted, owing to thebelt reel 212 is linked by thelever 210 to rotate, and thebelt 214 is guided by theguiding wheel 213 to move, different amount of stretch or compression of theelastic member 215 is generated, thereby generating different amount of the elastic recovering force. Since a force exerted by the user is to against the elastic recovering force, the user can feel different exercise resistance forces, therefore different exercise effects can be achieved. InFIG. 12A , the initial position of thelever 210 relative to thebase 220 has a smaller angle interval, therefore smaller amount of stretch or compression of theelastic member 215 is generated, smaller elastic recovering force is generated, and the user can feel smaller exercise resistance force. In contrast, inFIG. 12B , the initial position of thelever 210 relative to thebase 220 has a greater angle interval, therefore greater amount of stretch of compression of theelastic member 215 is generated, greater elastic recovering force is generated, and the user can feel greater exercise resistance. -

Thebelt 214 is rolled by thebelt reel 212 and is guided by theguiding wheel 213 to move; therefore theelastic member 215 is stretched for generating one direction of the elastic recovering force. Since theelastic member 215 is stretched, the direction of the elastic recovering force thereof is opposite to a stretch direction thereof. InFIG. 13C , thelever 210 is rotated clockwise relative to thebase 220. At the time, thebelt reel 212 is linked by thelever 210 and is also rotated clockwise.

FIG. 14 is a side perspective view showing a multiple position adjustable exercise device according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.FIG. 15A is a schematic view showing that in the multiple position adjustable exercise device ofFIG. 14 , which thelever 210 is located in an initial position.FIG. 15B is a schematic view showing that in the multiple position adjustable exercise device ofFIG. 14 , which thelever 210 is rotated counterclockwise, and one direction of an elastic recovering force is generated through anelastic member 215.FIG. 15C is a schematic view showing that in the multiple position adjustable exercise device ofFIG. 14 , which thelever 210 is rotated clockwise, and another direction of the elastic recovering force is generated through theelastic member 215. - The structure of the multiple position adjustable exercise device in
FIG. 14 is similar to that inFIG. 9 , the difference is that inFIG. 14 , thebase 220 is curve shaped and with a cushion disposed thereon. One end of thebase 220 is assembled with astand 312. The user can do exercise with a sitting posture by using this kind of structure, thereby achieving different training effects of different portions of a human body. Furthermore, thebelt 214 can be located between two guidingwheels 213 for achieving guiding effect. - In
FIG. 15A , thelever 210 is located in an initial position. At the time, thebelt 214 is not moved by thebelt reel 212, and theelastic member 215 is not linked by thebelt 214. InFIG. 15B , thelever 210 is rotated counterclockwise relative to thebase 220. At the time, thebelt reel 212 is linked by thelever 210 and is also rotated counterclockwise. Thebelt 214 is rolled by thebelt reel 212 and is guided by the two guidingwheels 213 to move; therefore theelastic member 215 is stretched for generating one direction of the elastic recovering force. Since theelastic member 215 is stretched, the direction of the elastic recovering force thereof is opposite to a stretch direction thereof. InFIG. 15C , thelever 210 is rotated clockwise relative to thebase 220. At the time, thebelt reel 212 is linked by thelever 210 and is also rotated clockwise. Thebelt 214 is rolled by thebelt reel 212 and is guided by the two guidingwheels 213 to move; therefore theelastic member 215 is compressed for generating another direction of the elastic recovering force. Since theelastic member 215 is compressed, the direction of the elastic recovering force thereof is opposite to a compression direction thereof. -
FIG. 16A is a schematic view showing that in the multiple position adjustable exercise device ofFIG. 14 , which thelever 210 is adjusted to be located in one initial position relative to thebase 220, and a smaller exercise resistance force is provided.FIG. 16B is a schematic view showing that in the multiple position adjustable exercise device ofFIG. 14 , which thelever 210 is adjusted to be located in another initial position relative to thebase 220, and a greater exercise resistance force is provided. When the initial position of thelever 210 relative to thebase 220 is adjusted, owing to thebelt reel 212 is linked by thelever 210 to rotate for rolling thebelt 214, and thebelt 214 is guided by the two guidingwheels 213 to move, different amount of stretch or compression of theelastic member 215 is generated, thereby generating different amount of the elastic recovering force. Since a force exerted by a user is to against the elastic recovering force, the user can feel different exercise resistance forces, therefore different exercise effects can be achieved. InFIG. 16A , the initial position of thelever 210 relative to thebase 220 has a smaller angle interval, therefore smaller amount of stretch or compression of theelastic member 215 is generated, thus smaller elastic recovering force is generated, and the user can feel smaller exercise resistance force. In contrast, inFIG. 16B , the initial position of thelever 210 relative to thebase 220 has a greater angle interval, therefore greater amount of stretch of compression of theelastic member 215 is generated, thus greater elastic recovering force is generated, and the user can feel greater exercise resistance. -

The other end of thebelt 214 is connected with theelastic member 215. Theelastic member 215 is disposed in theaccommodating device 314. Thebelt 214 is linked with the pivotingaxis 313 through theguiding wheel 213. When thelever 210 rotates relative to thebase 220, the pivotingaxis 313 is linked by thelever 210, and thebelt 214 is moved by theguiding wheel 213 for stretching or compressing theelastic member 215. InFIG. 17A , thelever 210 is located in an initial position, and the initial position is adjustable. InFIG. 17B , thelever 210 rotates counterclockwise to link the pivotingaxis 313, thebelt 214 is guided by theguiding wheel 213 to move for stretching theelastic member 215, and a user can feel an elastic recovering force. InFIG. 17C , thelever 210 rotates clockwise to link the pivotingaxis 313, thebelt 214 is guided by theguiding wheel 213 to move for stretching theelastic member 215, and the user can also feel another elastic recovering force.

After the initial position of thelever 210 relative to thebase 220 is adjusted, when thelever 210 rotates relative to thebase 220, the pivotingaxis 313 is linked with thelever 210, and thebelt 214 is guided by theguiding wheel 213 to move for stretching or compressing theelastic member 215, different amount of the elastic recovering force is generated owing to different amount of stretch or compression of theelastic member 215. Since a force exerted by a user is to against the elastic recovering force, the user can feel different exercise resistance forces, therefore different exercise effects can be achieved. InFIG. 18A , the initial position of thelever 210 relative to thebase 220 has a smaller angle interval, therefore smaller amount of stretch or compression of theelastic member 215 is generated, thus smaller elastic recovering force is generated, and the user can feel smaller exercise resistance force. In contrast, inFIG. 18B , the initial position of thelever 210 relative to thebase 220 has a greater angle interval, therefore greater amount of stretch of compression of theelastic member 215 is generated, thus greater elastic recovering force is generated, and the user can feel greater exercise resistance. -
