Abstract

An exerciser with collapsible components for easy storage and operation is described. The exerciser can include a track with two distal ends, two handle bars may be affixed to the track via the handle coupling assemblies, a plurality of leg members affixed to the track via leg coupling assemblies defined on a bottom side of the track, and slide assembly slidably coupled to the track and movable along the track. A handle bar affixed at a handle storage position via the handle coupling assembly may be substantially hidden under the track. Each leg member affixed at a leg storage position may extend towards the distal ends under the track to reduce the required storage space. Each handle bar affixed at the handle storage position may be fittingly inserted in between a pair the leg members affixed at the leg storage position to reduce the required storage space.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A exerciser device comprising:
 a track smoothly arched and curving upwardly toward two distal ends thereof with a track height above a middle portion thereof;   two handle coupling assemblies defined at the two distal ends of the track, each handle coupling assembly configurable with at least two handle positions including a handle operative position and a handle storage position;   two handle bars, each handle bar affixed to the track via one of the handle coupling assemblies, the handle bars movable around the track to configure the handle coupling assemblies;   a plurality of leg coupling assemblies defined on a bottom side of the track, each leg coupling assembly configurable with at least two leg positions including a leg operative position and a leg storage position;   a plurality of leg members, each leg member affixed to the track via one of the leg coupling assemblies, the leg members movable around the track to configure the leg coupling assemblies; and   a slide assembly slidably coupled to the track with rollers thereof and movable along the track, the slide assembly comprising a rotatable seat,   wherein each handle bar, when affixed at the handle operative position, provides hand support for a user sitting on the rotatable seat to perform sliding movements along the track,   wherein each handle bar, when affixed at the handle storage position, is substantially hidden under the track within the track height,   wherein each leg member, when affixed at the leg operative position, provides support of the track on a floor for the user to perform the sliding movements, and   wherein each leg member, when affixed at the leg storage position, extends sideways from the middle portion towards the distal ends under the track within the track height.   
     
     
         2 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the handle bar affixed at the handle storage position is fittingly inserted in between two of the leg members affixed at the leg storage position. 
     
     
         3 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the slide structure comprises:
 a backrest coupling assembly defined on a back side of the rotatable seat, the backrest coupling assembly configurable with at least two backrest positions including a backrest operative position and a backrest storage position; and   a backrest affixed to the rotatable seat via the backrest coupling assembly configured with one of the backrest positions,   wherein the backrest, when affixed at the backrest operative position, provides back side support for the user sitting on the rotatable seat,   wherein the backrest, when affixed at the backrest storage position, extends from the back side of the seat towards a front side of the seat to reduce the required storage space of the device.   
     
     
         4 . The device of  claim 3 , wherein the backrest inclines from the back side of the rotatable seat towards a front side of the rotatable seat to switch from the backrest operative position to the backrest storage position via the backrest coupling assemblies. 
     
     
         5 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the handle coupling assemblies allow the handle bar to pivot from a top side of the track towards the bottom side of the track to switch from the handle operative position to the handle storage position. 
     
     
         6 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the leg coupling assemblies allow the leg member to swing from the bottom side of the track upwards to switch from the leg operative position to the leg storage position. 
     
     
         7 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the two leg members are affixed with a particular one of the leg coupling assemblies, and wherein the particular leg coupling assembly includes a control knob to configure a particular one of the leg positions of the particular leg coupling assembly. 
     
     
         8 . The device of  claim 1 , further comprising a guard mounted around a border of the track. 
     
     
         9 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein each handle bar affixed to the handle coupling assembly is allowed to move between the handle positions, wherein each leg member affixed to the leg coupling assembly is allowed to move between the leg positions, and wherein the movement of the handle bar and the movement of the leg member are independent without mutual interference.
