Equipment for ergometric body exercises in aerial position

Equipment for ergometric body exercises in aerial position description/claims

The present invention consists of an Equipment that provides the user a dual ergometric cycle for exercise practice, simulating exercises of an ascending stairs for the inferior members (legs) and rotational exercises for superior members (arms), that can be made joint or separately, providing great results due to the concentration of physical efforts by the fact of being the user in an upright position while exercising.

There are countless ergometric equipments for aerobic exercises, muscle building, walking simulation and several others, however in all the researched and analyzed equipments, we did not knowledge any that keeps the characteristics of the present invention that, besides unifying the practice of rotational exercises for inferior and superior members, makes it a way the user exercises in an aerial position, in other words, standing up on devices that will provide rotational exercises for the inferior members, and be able to exercise the superior members (arms) simultaneously.

The existing exercises practice equipments that links inferior and superior members have the inconvenience of being of complex use, besides a high acquisition price due to importation cots or complexity connecting countless equipments in a single apparatus, discouraging the user for the complexity and repetition of the exercises provided by these mentioned marketed equipments.

Another great inconveniency of these ergometric equipments for exercises in upright position is that they just simulate walking by the use of rotating mats or, equipments that allow up and down leg movements in a repetitive way simulating a walking pattern.

Considering such difficulties and inconveniences and with the purpose of solving them it was developed the present claim of invention, the “EQUIPMENT FOR ERGOMETRIC BODY EXERCISES IN AERIAL POSITION” that congregates in a single unit the possibility to the user make in aerial position and in proper rhythm for his physical capacity, exercise joint or separately the inferior and superior members in way to propitiate synchronized movements, as much of the inferior as the superior members, still allowing the user to set a working tension that better adapts to his physical condition and effort capacity, finding manually his best rhythm, by adjusting the tension of the mechanism, differently of electric equipments that usually dictate the rhythm of the exercise.

The ergometric simultaneous exercises for inferior and superior members contributes significantly for physical weight loss exercises as well for treatment of physical incapacities, once it allows the user to adapt the synchronized movements and also allowing connected or disconnected exercises of the members according to the user's need, and inclusive propitiating a great number of joint or separated exercises, as much for the legs as for the arms, joint or separately, and it will still be possible for the user, make exercises to strength the back or front of his arms, abdomen, the front and back of the legs among others.

This equipment makes possible to exercise in a vigorous way all the muscles of the trunk, back and front, without overloading any group of muscles, as in body building, is also superior to swimming, once with this equipment the user can interchange transferring the efforts for inferior or superior members, which is not possible in swimming, but the same way of swimming this equipment does not cause impacts on the muscles and tendons as in racing, which does not work the muscles, hence this equipment besides innovating the practice of exercise still propitiates them without causing any impacts, invigorating the muscles.

The enclosed illustrations clearly show in details for the assembly of the present Invention, where:

FIG. 1—displays the lateral view of the assembled Equipment.

FIG. 2—displays the lateral view the Chassis of the disassembled Equipment, in other words, the assembly structure.

Illustration 3—displays the lateral view of the Equipment internal action mechanisms properly assembled.

FIG. 4—displays the back view of the assembled Equipment.

FIG. 5—displays the front view perspective of the Equipment.

FIG. 6—displays in perspective the exploded view of all the Equipment parts and components.

In accordance with the exposed in the illustrations, we have that this Equipment is assembled up on a reinforced metallic Chassis (01) with a vertical Compartment (02), a horizontal Compartment (03), sustentation Platforms (1-A) locomotion Wheels (18) besides the fixation Support (04).

This way, occurs the assembly in the upper part of the vertical Compartment (02) of a superior “V” channel Pulley (05) through a steel Axle (15) fixed in ball bearings (14) assembled on the tips of the steel axles (15) is made the fixation of the Crank with handles (12) through threaded nuts; the same way occurs the fixation in the inferior part of the Compartment (02) of a three channels “V” Pulley (07) also through an steel Axle (15) on ball bearings (14); in the horizontal Compartment (03) occurs this same way, the assembly of a inferior one channel “V” Pulley (06) obeying the same assembling principles in which is inserted the assembly of the Cranks with pedals (13) fastened with nuts on the tips of the steel Axle of (15) trespassing the ball bearings (14) and to complete the whole assembly of the movement mechanisms unit occurs the assembly of an inertia Wheel (08) through steel Axle (15) on the fixation Supports (04), completing the assembly of all of the movement mechanisms of the present invention; this inertia Wheel (08) has on one of its lateral one incorporated “V” Pulley (10) forming with it a single piece.

To link a device to another this Equipment uses automotive Belts, differently of others Known exercising equipments that usually use chains and crowns or driving ratchets, assembling the anterior automotive Belt (11) linking the inferior one channel Pulley (06) to the three channels Pulley (07) through the posterior opening (23), in a way that this three channels Pulley (07) will be linked to the “V” Pulley (10) through a posterior automotive Belt (20) that will pass through the posterior Opening (24) and for last occurs the assembly of a superior automotive Belt (19) in way to link the three channels Pulley (07) to the superior Pulley (05) completing the linkage of all movement and circulation mechanisms.
