Exerciser with two rotatable disks

Exerciser with two rotatable disks description/claims

The present invention relates to an exerciser having two rotatable disks located at a distance and a gear drives the two rotatable disks to rotate in the same directions simultaneously.

A conventional exerciser named twister known to applicant includes a base with a rotatable disk connected on a top thereof and a bearing member is located beneath the rotatable disk. The user stands on the disk by his or her two feet and rotates the disk in two opposite directions alternatively to twist and exercise the body. However, the only rotatable disk provides a limited area for the user so that the user has to try hard to keep balance on the rotatable disk, the bearing member makes the rotatable disk to be easily rotated and this often cause falling for the user. Most of the users do not take the risk to try the exerciser because the unstable nature.

The present invention intends to provide an exerciser that includes two rotatable disks so that the user can stand on the two rotatable disks in a stable status

The present invention relates to an exerciser which comprises a hollow base having two openings and each opening includes at least one first circular groove defined in an inner end thereof. Two bearing members each have a frame which has at least one rail and holes are defined through the at least one rail. A plurality of balls are rotatably received in the holes. Two disks are rotatably mounted on the two bearing members respectively and each disk includes at least one second circular groove and teeth defined in the underside thereof. The balls are rotatably engaged between the at least one first circular groove and the at least one second circular groove. A driving gear is located in the hollow base and engaged with the teeth of both of the two disks.

The primary object of the present invention is to provide an exerciser with two rotatable disks which are rotated in the same directions.

The present invention will become more obvious from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings which show, for purposes of illustration only, a preferred embodiment in accordance with the present invention.

FIG. 1 is an exploded view to show the exerciser of the present invention;

FIG. 2 is a side cross sectional view to show a part of the exerciser of the present invention;

FIG. 3 shows a user stands on the two disks of the exerciser of the present invention, and

FIG. 4 shows that the driving gear is engaged with teeth of the two rotatable disk of the exerciser of the present invention.

Referring to FIGS. I to 3, the exerciser of the present invention comprises a hollow and thin base 10 which includes two openings defined in a top thereof and each opening includes two first circular grooves 11 defined in an inner end thereof. Two bearing members 20 are received in the openings and each bearing member 20 has a frame which has two circular rails 21 and holes are defined through the rails 21. A plurality of balls 22 are rotatably received in the holes.

Two disks 40 are rotatably mounted on the two bearing members 20 respectively and each disk 40 has two second circular grooves 42 defined in an underside thereof. The balls 22 are rotatably engaged between the first and second circular grooves 11, 42. Each disk 40 has teeth 42 defined in the underside thereof. The two disks 40 each have a central hole and two axes extend through the two central holes and the two bearing members 20 and are rotatably engaged with two recessed in the hollow base 10.
