- one embodiment of the improved weight training device comprises barbell 10.
- Barbell 10 is immediately adjacent to first swivel bearing assembly 12 and second swivel bearing assembly 12. Barbell 10 is further connected to first brake 16 and second brake 16.
- First swivel bearing assembly 12 is immediately adjacent to first horizontal guide bar 18.
- second swivel bearing assembly 12 is immediately adjacent to second horizontal guide bar 18.
- First horizontal guide bar 18 is further mechanically coupled to first vertical guide assembly 14 and third vertical guide assembly 14.
- first vertical guide assembly 14 is connected to first brake 16 with brake line 32.
- third vertical guide assembly 14 is connected to first brake 16 with brake line 32.
- First vertical guide assembly 14 is immediately adjacent to and configured to travel along first vertical guide bar 20. While first vertical guide assembly 14 travels along first vertical guide bar 20, first vertical guide assembly 14 is immediately adjacent to first brake plate 22, which is perforated with a plurality of first brake plate holes 24.
- third vertical guide assembly 14 is immediately adjacent to and configured to travel along third vertical guide bar 20. While third vertical guide assembly 14 travels along third vertical guide bar 20, third vertical guide assembly 14 is immediately adjacent to third brake plate 22, which is perforated with a plurality of third brake plate holes 24.
- second horizontal guide bar 18 is further mechanically coupled to second vertical guide assembly 14 and fourth vertical guide assembly 14.
- Second vertical guide assembly 14 is connected to second brake 16 with brake line 32.
- fourth vertical guide assembly 14 is connected to second brake 16 with brake line 32.
- Second vertical guide assembly 14 is immediately adjacent to and configured to travel along second vertical guide bar 20. While second vertical guide assembly 14 travels along second vertical guide bar 20, second vertical guide assembly 14 is immediately adjacent to second brake plate 22, which is perforated with a plurality of second brake plate holes 24.
- fourth vertical guide assembly 14 is immediately adjacent to and configured to travel along fourth vertical guide bar 20. While fourth vertical guide assembly 14 travels along fourth vertical guide bar 20, fourth vertical guide assembly 14 is immediately adjacent to fourth brake plate 22, which is perforated with a plurality of fourth brake plate holes 24.
- Second brake plate 22, first brake plate 22, fourth brake plate 22 and third brake plate 22 are mechanically coupled to enclosure 26, which contains eleven members connected to form a hollow parallelepiped with an open front.
- enclosure 26 contains eleven members connected to form a hollow parallelepiped with an open front.
- a plurality of pulleys 34 can be used to raise and lower enclosure 26 with lines as desired by a user making the enclosure portable and space saving.
- weights 30 are on barbell 10, but that is not required for operation.
- each swivel bearing assembly 12 comprises counterweight with D-Ring 44 connected through an aperture in barbell guide bushing 46.
- Barbell guide bushing 46 is configured to accommodate barbell 10.
- Barbell guide bushing 46 is mechanically coupled to horizontal guide bushing 48 with swivel bearing 50.
- Horizontal guide bushing 48 is configured to accommodate horizontal guide bar 18.
- Each vertical guide assembly 14 is connected to an end of the barbell.
- Each vertical guide assembly 14 comprises vertical guide chassis 36 mechanically coupled to vertical guide bearing 38.
- Vertical guide bearing 38 is configured to accommodate vertical guide bar 20.
- Brake line 32 is mechanically coupled to pop pin 40 which comprises a D-Ring surrounding vertical guide bar 20. When brake 16 is squeezed brake line 32 retracts (as shown in Figure 8 and Figure 10) which pulls pop pin 40 from through brake plate hole 24 and from brake plate 22.
- barbell 10 can move horizontally, vertically and rotationally. This permits a full range of movement that is necessary for Olympic lifts. Additionally, if a user fails in a lift the user can simply release at least two brakes 16 and pop pins 40 will enter brake plate holes 24 in brake plates 22 causing barbell 10 to immediately stop moving and prevent an injury.
- a user can complete lifts known as "true explosive” lifts such as jump squats, snatch throws, push press throws, bench press throws, and so on.
- true explosive lifts such as jump squats, snatch throws, push press throws, bench press throws, and so on.
- barbell 10 is released by the user at the top of the lift. It is safer than ever to do those types of lifts because, as soon as the user lets go of barbell 10 and brakes 16, brakes 16 will activate and barbell 10 will come to a complete stop. Thus, saving the user from having to take on the excessive and potentially harmful fall of the load of weight 30 and barbell 10.

- Figure 13 Figure 14
- barbell 10 is immediately adjacent to first swivel bearing assembly 112 and second swivel bearing assembly 1 12.
- Barbell 110 is further connected to first brake 116 and second brake 116.
- First swivel bearing assembly 1 12 is immediately adjacent to first horizontal guide bar 118.
- second swivel bearing assembly 112 is immediately adjacent to second horizontal guide bar 118.
- First brake 1 16 is mechanically coupled to first brake handle 126 with first inner lower brake cable 128A and first inner upper brake cable 128B.
- the difficulty with the truly explosive lift is the propensity to turn barbell 110 such that first inner lower brake cable 128A and first inner upper brake cable 128B become tangled around barbell 1 10.
- cross bar 130 is mechanically coupled to barbell 110 such that cross bar 130 can rotate into but not through first brake 1 16. This permits barbell 110 to rotate 300 degrees in either direction around first brake 1 16.
- barbell 1 10 is mechanically coupled to gyroscope 140. Gyroscope 140 operates to spin in order to prevent tangling of first inner lower brake cable 128A and first inner upper brake cable 128B around barbell 1 10.
- Gyroscope 140 is shown in more detail in Figure 16. Gyroscope 140 further comprises lower plate 142 mechanically coupled to upper threaded member 144A and lower threaded member 144B. Lower plate 142 is further mechanically coupled to lower gyroscope 146. Upper threaded member 144A is mechanically coupled to central plate 148 with upper fastener 150A. Likewise, lower threaded member 144B is mechanically coupled to central plate 148 with lower fastener 150B. Central plate 148 is mechanically coupled to upper plate 152 with first upper string 154A and second upper string 154B. Upper plate 152 is mechanically coupled to upper ring 156 which operates to cause upper plate 152 to rotate relative lower plate 142, but to have a steady state substantially as shown.
- First inner lower brake cable 128A and first inner upper brake cable 128B are mechanically coupled to upper plate 152.
- First outer lower brake cable 128C and first outer upper brake cable 128D are mechanically coupled to upper plate 152.
- First outer lower brake cable 128C and first outer upper brake cable 128D are further mechanically coupled to anything that does not rotate. This creates a torsion force to keep the system in equilibrium.
- Embodiments of the disclosed invention are useful for weight training. In particular, embodiments of the disclosed invention are useful for ensuring brake cables do not wrap around a barbell.
