Claims20
A portable exercise device for developing, strengthening or rehabilitating a muscle or a joint of a body by working against a counterforce, the device comprising:
- a rotating body configured to retract a rope, a cord, a webbing, or a cable;
- a transmission means mounted inside the rotating body;
- an electric motor connected to the transmission means and configured to drive or retard rotation of the transmission means, wherein the rotating body is located coaxially aligned to and around the electric motor, wherein:
- when an end of the rope, the cord, the webbing, or the cable is pulled, the electric motor and the transmission means retard rotation, and
- when the end returns to the rotating body, the electric motor and the transmission means drive rotation of the rotating body rewinding the end;
- a control unit configured to command the electric motor;
- and
- a user interface connected to the control unit,
- wherein the user interface is configured to receive a user input and send a signal to the control unit to control operation of the electric motor during the exercise of a specific motion.
A portable exercising device for developing, strengthening and/or rehabilitating muscles or joints of a body by working against a counterforce, comprising:
- a rotating body configured to retract a rope, a cord, a webbing or a cable wound around an exterior surface of the rotating body and having an end configured for being pulled by a user to exert a force;
- a transmission means connected to the rotating body;
- an electric motor connected to the transmission means and configured to drive or retard rotation of the transmission means, wherein the rotating body is located coaxially aligned to and around the electric motor, wherein:
- when the end is pulled, the electric motor and the transmission means retard rotation,
- when the end returns to the rotating body, the electric motor and the transmission means drive rotation of the rotating body rewinding the end, and
- the transmission means rotates at a same angular velocity of the rotating body;
- a control unit connected to the electric motor and configured to command the electric motor during exercise of a specific motion based on an input value;
- a user interface connected to the control unit and configured to receive an input by a user and select an input value of the exercise;
- means for supplying electrical current to the electric motor;
- an outer enclosure containing at least the transmissions means and the electric motor;
- and
- a support fixed on the exercising device and configured for fixing the exercising device on different training equipment or supports, as it is lightweight and compact.
