Abstract

An abdominal fitness equipment comprises an elastic rope attached to the main body and a slide lever disposed in the main body. A hooked board on the slide lever hooks over the elastic rope from bottom to top. The hooked board defines an open-hanging hook unit appropriately located with respect to where a horizontal position of the elastic rope is located. The hook unit comprises a curved fin with a low to high-shaped rear part. The slide lever is unhooked from the elastic rope as a loose state, so the front side of the slide lever retracts into the main body. In use, users pull the slide lever to make the curved fin slide and push up to allow the elastic rope to automatically rebound and hang on the hook unit, thereby completing the loading preparation for the tension of the elastic rope and attaining a simple operation.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim: 
     
         1 . An elastic rope of the abdominal fitness equipment capable of loading automatically comprising:
 a main body made by connecting a top surface to a bottom surface and having a long hollow groove formed in a middle part of said main body; wherein, a slide lever with an abdominal pad at one end is disposed in said groove, so that a front part of said slide lever stretches and retracts freely; and   an elastic rope disposed in said main body, beside said groove; wherein, two sides of said elastic rope are clasped on said main body, and a middle part of said elastic rope is stridden across by two slide axles, so that said middle part of said elastic rope is placed at an inner side of said groove and stretched tightly without deforming; a hooked board is defined at a front side of said slide lever and allowed to hook over said middle part of said elastic rope from bottom to top, so that when said slide lever is pushed forward, said elastic rope becomes deformed and recovered tension;   wherein, said hooked board at said front side of an inner side of said slide lever defines an open-hanging hook unit applied to be hooked over by said elastic rope, and said hook unit is appropriately located with respect to where a horizontal position of said elastic rope is located; wherein, said hook unit is disposed on a shank of said slide lever and formed by a curved fin whose rear part is shaped from low to high; whereby, for the first use, when a rear part of said slide lever is pulled from said main body, said curved fin slides and pushes up through said elastic rope, so that said elastic rope automatically rebounds and hook over said hook unit and completes a loading preparation of said elastic rope serving as a basic tension device.
