Abstract
Disclosed is an adjustable air resistance system including two air cylinders fastened to the points of application on a fitness equipment, an air accumulator to receive compressed air from the air cylinders and to give a gradually increased air resistance to the points of application, and a pressure control system to control the pressure of the air accumulator by a programmable control unit through the monitoring of a pressure meter.
Claims5
An adjustable air resistance system comprising two air cylinders, each having a suction type flow rate regulating valve and a check valve on the outside and a piston valve on the inside, said piston valve being coupled to a piston rod extended out of the respective air cylinder and coupled to a respective point of application on a fitness equipment, said piston rod being mounted with a compression spring retained between said piston valve and the respective air cylinder, each air cylinder being respectively connected to an air accumulator through an one-way pressure regulating valve, and a pressure control system to control the pressure of said air accumulator.
