Abstract
A composite motion exercise machine includes a control panel which provides a plurality of movement modes and allows a user to issue a command to change the configuration of linkage units of the exercise machine to have the machine perform a movement mode without manual adjustment, so that the pedal of each linkage unit can be moved along a closed trajectory. The control panel also allows the user to finely adjust the trajectory and the resistance associated therewith. The trajectory performed by each pedal of the exercise machine is ergonomic so that the user can be protected from exercise injury.
Claims11
A composite motion exercise machine, which comprises a base frame, a transmission unit, a crank assembly, a pair of crank connecting rod assemblies, a pair of linkage units, and a control panel;
- wherein the base frame allows the exercise machine to be properly placed on a floor;
- the transmission unit includes a first wheel mounted at the base frame;
- the crank assembly includes a central axle fixed at a center of the first wheel and extending through the base frame to have the first wheel rotatably mounted at the base frame;
- each of said linkage units is located respectively at two sides of a vertical axis (V) extending along a front upright bar of said base frame;
- each of said linkage units is located respectively at two sides of a vertical axis (X) passing through a corresponding fixed pivot portion of a middle transverse bar of said base frame;
- said linkage units, each including a plurality of links, wherein each linkage unit is provided with a pedal capable of being treaded by a user to move along a closed path;
- the control panel can be operated by the user to change configuration of the linkage units so that the exersise machine provides a plurality of movement modes to be selected by the user.
