Exercise support frame system
Abstract
An exercise support frame system includes a lower base assembly able to rest on the ground and an upper frame assembly able to surround a user standing on the lower base. A horizontal bar is disposed within the upper frame above the user, and may either be used as a pull-up bar, or may support various implements useful for various arm lift interfaces. The upper frame has left and right vertical supports, which are affixed to the base via a pair of pins passing through each support. The pins are modular and permit the upper frame to pivot upon the base when only one pin is passed through each vertical support, enabling conversion of the exercise support frame between deployed and stowage configurations.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent is set forth in the appended claims:
1 . An exercise support frame comprising
a base including
a platform having an underside and an upperside, the upperside being substantially flat;
a plurality of feet affixed to the underside of the platform;
a first-interface rigidly affixed to the upperside of the platform and having a first-pair of pin-bores arrayed linearly and a first-channel intersecting each bore of the first-pair of pin-bores;
a second-interface rigidly affixed to the upperside of the platform and having a second-pair of pin-bores arrayed linearly and a second-channel intersecting each bore of the second-pair of pin-bores;
such that the first-channel and the second-channel are parallel to each other, and are each perpendicular to the upperside of the platform;
a frame having
a first-vertical-support having a first-series of bar-bores arrayed linearly;
a second-vertical-support having a second-series of bar-bores arrayed linearly, such that each bore of the second-series of bar-bores is oriented coaxially to a corresponding bore of the first-series of bar-bores;
a third-pair of pin-bores perforating the first-vertical support distally to the first-series of bar-bores;
a fourth-pair of pin-bores perforating the first-vertical support distally to the second-series of bar-bores;
a canopy rigidly joining the first-vertical-support to the second-vertical-support, such that the first-vertical-support and the second-vertical-support are parallel to each other;
a support-bar able to pass through a bore of the second-series of bar-bores and a corresponding coaxial bore of the first-series of bar-bores simultaneously, the support bar having
a first-end having a cap, the cap being sufficiently large to be impassable through any bore of either the first-series of bar-bores and the second-series of bar-bores,
a second-end having a threaded-interface, the threaded-interface being sufficiently narrow in diameter to be passable through any bore of the first-series of bar-bores and the second-series of bar-bores, and
a cylindrical body extending between the first-end and the second-end, the cylindrical body being sufficiently narrow in diameter to be passable through any bore of the first-series of bar-bores and the second-series of bar-bores;
a bar-fastener able to threadably interface with the second-end of the support-bar, the bar-fastener being sufficiently large to be impassable through any bore of the first-series of bar-bores and the second-series of bar-bores; a first-pin able to pass through and affix any bore of the third-pair of pin-bores of the first-vertical-support coaxially with a corresponding bore of the first-pair of pin-bores; and a second-pin able to pass through and affix any bore of the fourth-pair of pin-bores of the second-vertical-support coaxially with a corresponding bore of the second-pair of pin-bores; such that when the first-pin affixes any bore of the third-pair of pin bores of the first-vertical-support coaxially with a corresponding bore of the first-pair of pin-bores, and the second-pin affixes any bore of the fourth-pair of pin bores of the second-vertical-support coaxially with a corresponding bore of the second-pair of pin-bores, the frame is attached to the base.
2 . The exercise support frame of claim 1 , wherein the upperside of the platform is perforated by a plurality of slots arranged in a rectangular array.
3 . The exercise support frame of claim 1 , wherein each of the first-vertical-support and the second-vertical-support comprise
a first-plate, a second-plate affixed parallel to the first-plate, such that the first-pair of pin-bores perforate both the first-plate and second-plate, and the second-pair of pin-bores perforate both the first-plate and second-plate, a gap between the first-plate and the second-plate, such that when only the first-pin affixes the first-vertical-support to the first-interface and only the second-pin affixes the second-vertical-support to the second-interface, the frame may pivot upon the base up to at least ninety degrees between a deployed-position and an undeployed-position.
4 . The exercise support frame of claim 3 , further comprising
a third-pin able to pass through and affix any bore of the third-pair of pin bores of the first-vertical-support coaxially with a corresponding bore of the first-pair of pin-bores; and a fourth-pin able to pass through and affix any bore of the fourth-pair of pin bores of the second-vertical-support coaxially with a corresponding bore of the second-pair of pin-bores; such that when both bores of the first-pair of pin-bores are occupied by the first-pin and the third-pin, and both bores of the second-pair of pin-bores are occupied by the second-pin and the fourth-pin, the frame is unable to pivot upon the base between the deployed-position and the second-position.
5 . The exercise support frame of claim 1 , wherein the canopy comprises a backside, and the backside comprises at least one wheel.
6 . The exercise support frame of claim 1 , wherein each of the first-interface and the second-interface comprise a stop preventing the frame from pivoting past vertical in a forward direction, the forward direction being opposite the backside of the canopy.
7 . The exercise support frame of claim 1 , wherein each of the first-vertical-support and the second-vertical-support comprise a handle.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
