Riding type exercise machine with horizontal free planar motion

Abstract

A riding type exercise machine with horizontal free planar motion, has a base frame, supporting an intermediate wheeled horizontal frame, supporting an upper wheeled frame with seat pad, which supports the user. A horizontal bar frame with hand/foot grips is provided, which is pivotally attached to vertical posts, which are rigidly attached as a frame to a pipe, which pipe acts as the pivotal member for the attached said base frame to be raised to a vertical inactive parked position. With hand or foot use of the hand/foot grips, the user can propel himself in any horizontal motion. Exercise is caused by acceleration of the user and wheeled frame masses in a horizontal plane, and by braking apparatuses between frames.

What I claim as my invention is:  
     
         1 . An exercise machine comprising: 
 (a) a base frame with two positions—operational and park;    (b) an intermediate wheeled horizontal frame for allowing the user to move in the faced direction;    (c) an upper wheeled frame with pad allowing the user to move normal to the faced direction, with: 
 (1) horizontal pad extensions for leg support; and  
 (2) a vertical back rest for back support;  
   (d) a stationery frame comprised of vertical posts and horizontal base pipe, which horizontal pipe pivotally supports the base frame;    (e) by use of the aforementioned horizontal pipe, the base frame can be raised to a vertical inactive park position, along with attached wheeled frames;    (f) horizontal bar frame pivotally attached to vertical posts, facilitating vertical positioning of said horizontal bar: 
 (1) with a pair of hand/foot grips, which can be adjusted pivotally about and long the horizontal bar to suit hand and foot positioning;  
 (2) for the user to propel himself in any horizontal motion.
