Abstract
An extension base for an exercise apparatus includes a stationary seat that is attached to a bottom of a frame of the exercise apparatus and defines therein a channel; and two extension legs that are inserted into the channel of the stationary seat from two openings at two ends of the stationary seat, so that the extension legs can be extended or retracted with respect to the stationary seat. When the extension legs are fully retracted into the stationary seat, a distance between the outer ends of the two extension legs farthest away from each other is still long enough to support the elliptical exerciser and prevent it from falling. The extension base solves the problem that the conventional exercise apparatus tends to rollover when its base is removed.
Claims6
An extension base for an exercise apparatus, the exercise apparatus having a frame that carries a flywheel for providing loading, and two treadles connected to the flywheel from two sides through respective cranks, so that when the two treadles are treaded, the flywheel provides resistance, and the extension base comprising:
- a stationary seat, being attached to a bottom of the frame, and being of a tubular structure that has a channel and has openings at two ends of the channel;
- and
- two extension legs, each having an appropriate length and being inserted into the channel from the two opening, respectively, so that the extension legs can be symmetrically extended and retracted with respect to the stationary seat, wherein when the extension legs are fully retracted into the stationary seat, a distance between outer ends of the two extension legs farthest away from each other is still long enough to support the elliptical exerciser and prevent the elliptical exerciser from falling.
