Brief Patent Description - Full Patent Description - Patent Application Claims
[0001] The present invention is a continuation-in-part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/384,200, filed on 07 Mar. 2003, pending and to be abandoned. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] The present invention relates to an exerciser, and more particularly to a swinging exerciser for training waist portion of user, and massaging abdominal portion of user. [0004] 2. Description of the Prior Art [0005] Various kinds of typical hula loops have been developed for training the waist portions of users, and for massaging the abdominal portions of the users. However, some people may not suitably operate the hula loops to swing and to massage their abdominal portions. [0006] In addition, when the users have a pain in the back portion, the users may no longer use the hula loops to exercise their waist portions, because the hula loops may hurt their painful back portions. [0007] U.S. Pat. No. 6,077,194 to Chang discloses one of the typical body twist exercising toys and includes a saucer attached to a mounting base with a support arm, and a steel ball rotatably received in a receiving space defined in the saucer. However, the support arm is solid and may not resiliently couple the saucer to the mounting base, and may not resiliently massage the abdominal portions of users. [0008] U.S. Pat. No. 6,488,614 to Chang discloses another typical cycle type waist slimmer machine including a sheath attached to a pressure prop unit with a piercing rod. However, similarly the piercing rod is solid and may not resiliently couple the sheath to the pressure prop unit, and also may not resiliently massage the abdominal portions of users. [0009] U.S. Pat. No. 6,500,102 to Domenge discloses a further typical inertial exerciser device including a weight rotatably received in a hoop which includes one or more straps for being carried by the users. The device may not be used to massage the abdominal portions of users. [0010] U.S. Pat. No. 6,514,179 to Yu discloses a further typical rolling ball hand-shaking exerciser including a casing to be held by the hands of the users, and a rolling ball received in the casing. However, the casing may not be attached onto the abdominal portions of users and thus may not resiliently massage the abdominal portions of users. [0011] U.S. Pat. No. 6,719,675 to Yu discloses a further typical inertial rocking type exerciser device including a main body attached to an arcuate catch plate with a support rack. However, similarly, the support rack is solid and may not resiliently couple the main body to the catch plate, and also may not resiliently massage the abdominal portions of users. [0012] The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the afore-described disadvantages of the conventional hula loops or exercisers. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0013] The primary objective of the present invention is to provide an exerciser for allowing users to easily train their waist portions, and o massage their abdominal portions. [0014] The other objective of the present invention is to provide an exerciser including a spring member for resiliently transmitting vibrations onto the abdominal portion of the user and for comfortably massaging the user's abdominal portion. [0015] In accordance with one aspect of the invention, there is provided an exerciser comprising a mounting base for engaging onto a user, a stem including a first end and including a second end having a housing provided thereon, the housing including a chamber formed therein and defined by an inner peripheral surface, a weight movably received in the chamber of the housing, the weight being caused to move against the inner peripheral surface of the housing when swinging the housing for generating a vibration, and a spring member coupled between the mounting base and the first end of the stem for resiliently transmitting the vibration to the mounting base and for massaging the user. [0016] The stem includes a hollow passage formed therein and communicating with the chamber of the housing. The stem includes a neck portion provided thereon and disposed between the stem and the housing. The mounting base includes a curved surface formed therein for engaging with the user. [0017] A handle may further be provided and attached to the stem. The handle includes a hollow passage formed therein, and the stem includes a hollow passage formed therein and communicating with the hollow passage of the handle. [0018] The handle includes at least one neck portion provided thereon and disposed between the handle and the housing. The handle includes a hollow passage formed therein and communicating with the chamber of the housing. [0019] The weight includes a core, and an outer covering provided on the core. The outer covering of the weight includes an outer peripheral portion having a plurality of cavities and projections formed thereon. [0020] A counting device may be used for counting movement of the weight relative to the housing, and includes a processor unit, and a switch coupled to the processor unit and extended into the chamber of the housing to engage with the weight when the weight moves across the switch. A display may further be provided and coupled to the processor unit. [0021] The stem includes an outer thread provided on the first end thereof for threading with the spring member. The mounting base includes a shank having an outer thread for threading with the spring member. [0022] Further objectives and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from a careful reading of the detailed description provided hereinbelow, with appropriate reference to the accompanying drawings.
