Exercise device for generating vibration

Abstract

An exercise device for generating vibration is provided. The device includes a body that is attachable to exercise equipment through a pair of attachment mechanisms coupled to the body. One of the pair of attachment mechanisms is attachable to a cable of the exercise equipment and the other of the pair of attachment mechanisms is attachable to an accessory for the exercise equipment. A vibrational assembly is positioned within the body and includes a rotatable shaft having a weight attached thereto. The rotatable shaft rotates the weight to generate vibrations in the body, wherein the vibrations in the body generate vibrations in the accessory for the exercise equipment.

         8 . The exercise device of  claim 1 , wherein the exercise device is portable and attachable to a plurality of exercise equipment. 
     
     
         9 . An exercise device for generating vibration, comprising:
 a body that is attachable to exercise equipment;   an attachment mechanism coupled to the body, wherein the attachment mechanism attaches to the exercise equipment to join the body to the exercise equipment; and   a vibrational assembly positioned within the body to generate vibrations in the body, wherein the vibrations in the body generate vibrations in the exercise equipment.   
     
     
         10 . The exercise device of  claim 9  further comprising a pair of attachment mechanisms, wherein one of the pair of attachment mechanisms is attachable to a cable of the exercise equipment, and the other of the pair of attachment mechanisms is attachable to an accessory for the exercise equipment so that the exercise device is positioned between the cable for the exercise equipment and the accessory for the exercise equipment 
     
     
         11 . The exercise device of  claim 9  further comprising a shaft positioned in the vibrational assembly, a weight arm extending radially outward from the shaft, the weight attached to an end of the weight arm distal from the shaft. 
     
     
         12 . The exercise device of  claim 11 , wherein the weight rotates around the shaft to generate vibrations. 
     
     
         13 . The exercise device of  claim 11 , wherein the weight is shaped as an arc that forms a portion of a circumference around the shaft. 
     
     
         14 . The exercise device of  claim 11  further comprising a motor joined to the shaft by pulleys, the motor powering the pulleys to rotate the shaft. 
     
     
         15 . The exercise device of  claim 9 , wherein the exercise device is portable and attachable to a plurality of exercise equipment. 
     
     
         16 . An exercise device for generating vibration, comprising:
 a body that is attachable to exercise equipment;   a pair of attachment mechanisms coupled to the body, one of the pair of attachment mechanisms attachable to a cable of the exercise equipment, and the other of the pair of attachment mechanisms attachable to an accessory for the exercise equipment so that the exercise device is positioned between the cable for the exercise equipment and the accessory for the exercise equipment; and   a vibrational assembly positioned within the body and including a rotatable shaft having a weight attached thereto, the rotatable shaft rotating the weight to generate vibrations in the body, wherein the vibrations in the body generate vibrations in the accessory for the exercise equipment.   
     
     
         17 . The exercise device of  claim 16 , wherein the exercise device is portable and attachable to a plurality of exercise equipment. 
     
     
         18 . The exercise device of  claim 16  further comprising a weight arm extending radially outward from the shaft, the weight attached to an end of the weight arm distal from the shaft.
