Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to a motorized pulling system for a universal gym.
- This invention relates to an improved pulling system for a universal gym.
- It has been found that the conventional universal gym is too bulky in size thereby rendering it unsuitable for use in ordinary homes. In addition, such universal gym utilizes a plurality of weights to produce a load for a user. However, it is inconvenient to adjust the weights and also impossible to adjust the weights linearly.
- Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide an improved pulling system for a universal gym which can obviate and mitigate the above-mentioned drawbacks.
- This invention relates to a motorized pulling system for a universal gym.
- It is the primary object of the present invention to provide a pulling system for a universal gym which utilizes a motor to provide pulling force against the user so that the user must apply a larger force than the pulling force in order to operate the gym.

It will, nevertheless, be understood that no limitation of the scope of the invention is thereby intended, such alternations and further modifications in the illustrated device, and such further applications of the principles of the invention as illustrated herein being contemplated as would normally occur to one skilled in the art to which the invention relates.
- With reference to the drawings and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 5, the universal gym according to the present invention comprises a
main frame 100 on which are mounted a pair ofrotatable arms 20, a pair ofrowing arms 30, aleg press 40, and amotor 80. Therotatable arms 20, therowing arms 30 and theleg press 40 are connected with amotor 80 via twocables - This invention is characterized by utilizing a
motor 80 to provide pulling force for a universal gym instead of weights thereby reducing the size of the universal gum and enabling the load to be adjusted conveniently and linearly. - The
motor 80 is fixedly mounted the main frame and engaged with agear reduction device 81 which has anoutput shaft 82. - The
main frame 100 includes anauxiliary frame 50 and amovable leg 60. Theauxiliary frame 50 is fitted between twosupports 101 of themain frame 100. Therowing arm 30 is provided at the lower end with apin 301 extending through thesupport 101 of themain frame 100 into theauxiliary frame 30 so that theauxiliary frame 30 will be rotated in unison with the rowing arm 30 (see FIGS. 3, 6 and 7). Themovable leg 60 is rotatably connected with themain frame 100 and has a pair ofrods 61 enclosed with sponge-like material. - The
rotatably arms 20 are each vertically rotatably connected with one side of themain frame 100. - A
first pulley 1 is fixedly mounted on themain frame 100. - A
second pulley 2 is fixedly mounted on theauxiliary frame 50 so that thesecond pulley 2 will be moved together with therowing arm 30. Thesecond pulley 2 is disposed at the left side of the first pulley 1 (see FIG. 4). - A
third pulley 3 is fixedly mounted on themain frame 100 and disposed at the left side of the second pulley (see FIG. 4). - A
fourth pulley 4 is fixedly mounted on themain frame 100 and located above thethird pulley 3. - A
fifth pulley 5 is fixedly mounted on themain frame 100 and disposed above thefourth pulley 4. - A sixth pulley 6 is fixedly mounted on the
main frame 100 and disposed above thefifth pulley 4. - A seventh pulley 7 is disposed between the
fifth pulley 5 and the sixth pulley 6. - An
eighth pulley 8 is fixedly connected with the seventh pulley 7 (see FIGS. 3, 4 and 5). - A
ninth pulley 9 is fixedly mounted on the main frame 100 (see FIGS. 3 and 4). - A tenth pulley 10 is fixedly mounted at the right side of the ninth pulley 98 (see FIG. 5).
- An
eleventh pulley 11 is rotatably mounted at one side of themain frame 100. - An twelve
pulley 12 is rotatably mounted at the other side of themain frame 100. - A
thirteenth pulley 13 is fixedly mounted on themain frame 100. - A
fourteenth pulley 14 is fixedly mounted on themain frame 100 and disposed under the thirteenth pulley 13 (see FIG. 4). - A
fifteenth pulley 15 is fixedly mounted at the lower end of themovable leg 60 so that thefifteenth pulley 15 will move in unison with themovable leg 60. - The
cable 71 is connected with thefifteenth pulley 15 at one end and with theoutput shaft 82 of thegear reduction device 81 at the other end. The cable 70 passes in sequence through the lower side of thefirst pulley 1, the upper side of thesecond pulley 2, the lower side of thethird pulley 3, the upper side of thefourth pulley 4, the right side of thefifth pulley 5, the left side of the seventh pulley 7, the right side of the sixth pulley 6, the upper side of thethirteenth pulley 13, the lower side of thefourteenth pulley 14, and the lower side of the fifteenpulley 15. Thesecond cable 72 is connected with theeleventh pulley 11 at one end and with the twelvepulley 12 at another end. Further, thesecond cable 72 sequentially passes through the left side of theninth pulley 11, the right side of theeighth pulley 8 and the left side of the tenth pulley 10. - It should be noted, however, that the
motor 80 is connected with an electronic controlling device (not shown) through which the speed of themotor 80 can be adjusted linearly. Such an electronic controlling device may be of any conventional design well known to those skilled in the art and is not considered a part of the invention. Further, the connection between thefirst cable 71 and theoutput shaft 82 of thegear reduction device 81 is shown in FIG. 11. - FIGS. 8A and 8B show the working principle of the
rowing arms 30. As illustrated, when therowing arms 30 is pushed forward in the arrow direction shown FIG. 8B, theauxiliary frame 50 will have a tendency to rotate upward with respect to thesupport 101 of themain frame 100. When the force applied on therowing arms 30 by an user (not shown) is larger than the pulling force of theoutput shaft 82 of thegear reduction device 81, thesecond pulley 2 will be lifted thus giving exercise to the user. - FIG. 9A and 9B show the working principle of the rotatable arms. As shown, when the
rotatable arms 40 are rotated inward, thesecond cable 71 will pull theeighth pulley 8 to go forward. However, therotatable arms 40 can only be rotated when the force applied on therotatable arms 40 by the user is larger than the pulling force of theoutput shaft 82 of thegear reduction device 81. - FIG. 10 shows the working principle of the
leg press 60. As can be seen, when the fifteenpulley 15 is rotated upward, themotor 80 will tend to pull thefirst cable 71. Only when a force applied to theleg press 60 is larger than the pulling force of theoutput shaft 82 of thegear reduction device 81 will theleg press 60 be rotated upward. - The invention is naturally not limited in any sense to the particular features specified in the forgoing or to the details of the particular embodiment which has been chosen in order to illustrate the invention. Consideration can be given to all kinds of variants of the particular embodiment which has been described by way of example and of its constituent elements without thereby departing from the scope of the invention. This invention accordingly includes all the means constituting technical equivalents of the means described as well as their combinations.
