Versatile dismountable exercise apparatus

USPTO Application #: 20050272574
Title: Versatile dismountable exercise apparatus
Abstract: A versatile dismountable exercise apparatus has a basic structure comprised of key structural frame components which include a pair of base posts, each being releasably connected at their upper ends by upper posts and at their lower ends by base plates. The two upper posts are releasably connected to a wall mount. From that basic structure, a number of components are added. The wall mount is generally placed permanently on a wall surface using mechanical fateners or other means. Accessories are connected, by way of connecting means, to the basic structures or to components that are releasably attached to the basic structures. (end of abstract)

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the invention

[0002] The invention relates generally to exercise equipment but more particularly to a exercise training center capable of switching between a large variety of exercises and being dismountable for easy storage when not in use.

[0003] 2. Background of the invention

[0004] Exercise apparatus, training center or home gymnasiums, no matter what they are called, have been around for decades and a large amount of patents have been delivered for such apparatuses.

[0005] Some are very specific and handle a limited series of possible exercises for specific muscle groups while others try to cover all the muscle groups and offer dozens of exercise possibilities.

[0006] The challenge of course in trying to have everything in one apparatus is to make it easy to modify certain parts of the apparatus by either adding or removing a module, changing the configuration by shortening or lengthening components, etc. . .

[0007] This is part of the challenge, another challenge is to have an apparatus which is sufficiently stable to handle large moving weights in addition to the weight of a user.

[0008] There is therefore still room for improvement in this field.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0009] It is a first object of this invention to provide an exercise apparatus having a unique structure allowing for an easy and quick way to be dismountable.

[0010] It is a second object of this invention to provide an exercise apparatus having an angled vertical structure which makes possible a number of exercises not possible on a standard vertical structure apparatus.

[0011] It is a third object of this invention to provide an exercise apparatus having a structure allowing for a wall support providing added stability which makes possible a number of exercises not possible on equipment lacking the stability of a wall support.

[0012] In order to do so, the versatile dismountable exercise apparatus of this instant invention has a basic structure comprised of key structural frame components which include a pair of base posts, each being releasably connected at their upper ends by upper posts and at their lower ends by base plates. The two upper posts are releasably connected to a wall mount. From that basic structure, a number of components are added. The wall mount is generally placed permanently on a wall surface using mechanical fateners or other means. Accessories are connected, by way of connecting means, to the basic structures or to components that are releasably attached to the basic structures.

[0013] The foregoing and other objects, features, and advantages of this invention will become more readily apparent from the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein the preferred embodiment of the invention is shown and described, by way of examples. As will be realized, the invention is capable of other and different embodiments, and its several details are capable of modifications in various obvious respects, all without departing from the invention. Accordingly, the drawings and description are to be regarded as illustrative in nature, and not as restrictive.
