Abstract
An exercise device includes an elongate support member having opposed ends and being rotatably mounted through either directly to—or through an attachment member to a mounting member intermediate the opposed ends of the elongate support member. A horizontally extending axle is rotatably mounted to the elongate support member adjacent one the opposed ends. The horizontally extending axle is connected to a weight support and to an exercise arm. The elongate support member is grippable to permit its rotation about its rotatable mount to change the vertical position of the horizontally extending axle and the weight support and exercise arm connected thereto. An attachment member configured be connected to the mounting member in a desired location also constitutes a part of the invention.
Claims18
An exercise device including:
- an exercise arm connected to a weight supporting member to rotate relative to said weight supporting member when unlocked,
- a locking member to which said exercise arm is configured to be locked in multiple rotational positions, said locking member being connected to said weight supporting member to rotate with said weight supporting member,
- said exercise arm rotating said weight supporting member when locked to said locking member and being rotated during exercising,
- an elongate member rotationally retained on a frame member at a location intermediate first and second opposed ends of said elongate member, said exercise arm, weight supporting member and locking member having a connection to said elongate member adjacent one of said first and second opposed ends for rotational motion when said exercise arm is locked to said locking member and rotated during exercising,
- said elongate member being engageable by an individual to rotate said elongate member for providing vertical adjustment of the exercise arm, weight supporting member and locking member, and
- retention means for retaining the elongate member in a first rotational position in which the connection of the exercise arm, weight supporting member and locking member to said elongate member is vertically above the location at which the elongate member is rotationally retained on said frame member, and in a second rotational position in which the connection of the exercise arm, weight supporting member and locking member to said elongate member is vertically below the location at which the elongate member is rotationally retained on said frame member.
An exercise device including:
- an elongate support member including first and second opposed ends and being rotatably mounted through a rotatable mount to a mounting member intermediate said first and second opposed ends,
- a horizontally extending axle rotatably mounted to said elongate support member adjacent one of said first and second opposed ends, said horizontally extending axle being connected to a weight support on one side of the rotatably mounted elongate support member and being connected to an exercise arm on an opposite side of said rotatably mounted elongate support member,
- said elongate support member being grippable for rotating said elongate support member about said rotatable mount to change the vertical position of said horizontally extending axle and said weight support and exercise arm connected thereto.
An attachment member configured to be fixed to a mounting member in a desired position for retaining an exercise device on said mounting member through said attachment member, said attachment member including two side walls, said two side walls being spaced-apart and each of said two side walls including a side wall sections extending outwardly of said mounting member, each of said two side wall sections including an opening therein aligned with a corresponding opening in the other of said two side wall sections, thereby providing a set of aligned openings unobstructed by said mounting member, said exercise device including an elongate support member including first and second opposed ends and being rotatably mounted intermediate said first and second opposed ends through a rotatable mount retained in said set of aligned openings in said two side wall sections of the attachment member, said exercise device further including a horizontally extending axle rotatably mounted to said elongate support member adjacent one of said first and second opposed ends, said horizontally extending axle being connected to a weight support and to an exercise arm, said elongate support member being grippable for rotating said elongate support member about said rotatable mount to move said horizontally extending axle and said weight support and exercise arm connected to said horizontally extending axle into different positions.
