Portable exercise machine
Abstract
A portable exercise machine including a substantially flat floor base that can be disassembled from other components, an actuator bar preferably having a centered pin as part of a spooling and anchoring handle; an upright member that may have an integral support and upright arm having pulleys preferably enclosed in the upright arm; a rocker arm that can be removably pivotably connected, such as by a pin, to the support of the upright member; and a cable attached the actuator bar, passing over the enclosed pulleys and attached to the rocker arm. The integral support may include a mounting recess as an integrated stand to removably secure the actuator bar when not in use. The upright member may include an integral sleeve that attaches to a tube that removably attaches to the floor base.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A portable exercise machine comprising:
a floor base that can be disassembled from other components, an upright member having pulleys; an actuator bar; a rocker arm that can be pivotably connected to the upright member; and a cable attached the actuator bar, passing over the pulleys and attached to the rocker arm.
2 . The exercise machine of claim 1 wherein the pulleys are enclosed in the upright member.
3 . The exercise machine of claim 1 wherein the actuator bar includes spooling, anchoring and centering handle with a pin centered on the handle that allows a length of the cable to wrapped around a center spooling zone for an adjustable length of the cable to be centered for symmetrical lifting while being safely anchored on the pin.
4 . The exercise machine of claim 3 wherein the spooling zone is a cylinder with a lip on each side that keeps the cable between the lips and outer hand grip portions on each end of the actuator bar.
5 . The exercise machine of claim 4 wherein the cylinder of the spooling zone has a diameter greater than a diameter of the hand grip portion.
6 . The exercise machine of claim 5 wherein the cylinder of the spooling zone has a diameter greater than one and a quarter inch.
7 . The exercise machine of claim 1 wherein the upright member includes an integrated stand to hold the actuator bar when not in use for exercises.
8 . The exercise machine of claim 1 wherein the upright member includes an integral support and an upright arm.
9 . The exercise machine of claim 8 wherein the support includes a recess to removably secure the actuator bar when not in use.
10 . The exercise machine of claim 8 wherein the rocker arm is pivotably connectable to the support.
11 . The exercise machine of claim 8 wherein the upright member further includes an integral sleeve attached to the support.
12 . The exercise machine of claim 11 further comprising a tube that removably attaches to the floor base, which is substantially flat, wherein the integral sleeve of the upright member can be removably attached to the tube.
13 . The exercise machine of claim 8 wherein the support includes a mount having a recess to secure a removable end of the actuator arm.
14 . The exercise machine of claim 13 wherein the recess has a channel to guide the cable.
15 . The exercise machine of claim 8 wherein the rocker arm can be pivotably connected via a removable pin to the support to pivotably secure the rocker arm to the upright member.
16 . The exercise machine of claim 3 wherein the pin is centered on the handle, the pin being somewhat T-shaped with a stem and curved barbs to assist in securing the cable.
17 . A portable exercise machine comprising:
a floor base that can be disassembled from other components, an upright member having an integral support and upright arm having pulleys enclosed in the upright arm; an actuator bar; a rocker arm that can be removably pivotably connected to the support of the upright member; and a cable attached the actuator bar, passing over the enclosed pulleys and attached to the rocker arm.
18 . The exercise machine of claim 17 wherein the upright member further includes an integral sleeve.
19 . The exercise machine of claim 18 further comprising a narrow tube that removably attaches to the floor base, wherein the integral sleeve of the upright member can be removably attached to the tube.
20 . A portable exercise machine comprising:
a substantially flat floor base that can be disassembled from other components, an actuator bar having a centered pin; an upright member having an integral support and upright arm having pulleys enclosed in the upright arm; the integral support including a mounting recess as an integrated stand to removably secure the actuator bar when not in use, a rocker arm that can be removably pivotably connected to the support of the upright member; and a cable attached the actuator bar, passing over the enclosed pulleys and a channel guide in the recess, and attached to the rocker arm.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
