Wall mountable exercise assembly

Wall mountable exercise assembly description/claims

Exercise assemblies, more particularly, a wall mounted exercise assembly.

Exercise devices come in a number of different configurations for a variety of exercises (including stretching) of various parts of the body. However, because exercise devices are often bulky and their users often have limited space in which to use them, various designs are provided which may fold up or otherwise conserve space.

Applicant provides a simply constructed wall mountable exercise assembly which achieves both versatility and economy of space. Applicant's exercise assembly is versatile in that it may be utilized to perform a number of different exercises. At the same time, Applicant's exercise assembly is designed to take up a minimum amount of space.

Applicant achieves these objectives in a novel, wall mountable exercise assembly, which is passive (no moving parts during the exercise) and adjustable, as well as removable for temporary storage purposes.

Applicant achieves the objectives of versatility and economy of space in providing a vertical support leg onto which an arm is slidably received, the arm having a pair of arm handles capable of being grasped by the hands of the user or engaged by the feet of the user during a variety of different exercises.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the wall mountable exercise assembly in place mounted to a wall ready for use, including the foot support plate.

FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the vertical support leg and components thereof of the wall mountable exercise assembly.

FIGS. 3A, 3B, and 3C all illustrate the wall mountable exercise assembly in use.

Applicant's novel exercise assembly 10 illustrated in FIGS. 1-3C includes a vertical support leg 12, an arm 14 for slidable receipt thereon, and a foot support plate 16 dimensioned to fit substantially beneath a first end of vertical support leg 12. Optionally, a bungee or strap 13 may be provided with hooks at the removed end thereof to hook into holes near the top of the leg.

Vertical support leg 12 is engaged with a pair of wall mount brackets 20 and 22 to a wall or other vertical support surfaces by wall mount fasteners, such as those known in the trade. Wall mount brackets 20 and 22 are illustrated. They engage vertical support leg 12 near the removed ends 12a and 12b thereof. More specifically, wall mount brackets 20 and 22 may include blind nuts (or free nuts 23) for receiving leg mounting bolts 24 and 26, the leg mounting bolts passing through the vertical support leg 12 at leg mounting bolt holes 32 and 34, respectively. As such, leg mounting bolts 24 and 26 can be inserted through leg mounting bolt holes 32 and 34 and threaded into the blind nut or free nut 23 on wall mount brackets 20 and 22, respectively, to hold vertical support leg 12 rigidly to the wall at two spaced apart points with arm 14 between the two brackets and capable of moving vertically therebetween to adjustably locate arm 14 through the use of arm locator bolt or pin 28. Locator pin 28 will engage a multiplicity of arm locator pin holes 36, which are located between leg mounting bolt holes 32 and 34. In this manner, arm 14 can be adjustably set to a number of selected heights.

Foot support plate 16 is dimensioned for receipt beneath the bottom of removed end 12b of vertical support leg as illustrated in FIG. 1.
