Abstract
The present invention describes a fitness machine that comes with a seat installed on a base for a user to sit on, an arm, a swinging member pivotally coupled to a rear end of the arm, a handle disposed on the swinging member at a section above the pivotal connection point for the user to grab with both hands, a pedal disposed at a section below the pivotal connection point for the user to press by both feet, and at least one force balancing member installed between the swinging member and the arm, such that a user can work out as if the user is riding a horse.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A horseback riding fitness machine, comprising:
a base, being a main mechanical construction of said horseback riding fitness machine and placed on a floor for maintaining a basic stable gravitational effect; a seat, installed on said base for a user to sit on; an arm, installed on said base at a position corresponding to a middle section of said seat; a swinging member, pivotally coupled to a rear end of said arm, and having a handle disposed at a section above its corresponding pivotal connection point for said user to grab with both hands and a pedal disposed at a section below said pivotal connection point for users to step on with both feet; and at least one force balancing member, for balancing a force applied by said user while said swinging member is swinging.
2 . The horseback riding fitness machine of claim 1 , wherein said base comprises a joint pipe disposed at the central position of said base and slanted backward for installing said seat, and a lock knob disposed at a position where said joint pipe and said seat are installed for adjusting the height of said seat.
3 . The horseback riding fitness machine of claim 2 , wherein said arm has a base section coupled to a side of said joint pipe, such that a rear end of said arm is extended to a predetermined length towards a front end of said base.
4 . The horseback riding fitness machine of claim 1 , wherein said handle is coupled with said swinging member through a folding rod.
5 . The horseback riding fitness machine of claim 4 , wherein said folding rod and said swinging member are pivotally coupled with a rear end of said arm concurrently by a pivot, such that said folding rod has an effect of being folded towards said seat with said pivot as the center or being folded towards the front of said base, and a movable pin is installed at an overlapped position of said folding rod that is folded towards the front of said base to be inserted between said folding rod and said swinging member, and a stop rod is installed on said swinging member at a position corresponding to a front side of said overlapped position for restricting the.movement of said folding rod and facilitating an insertion of said movable pin between said folding rod and said swinging member.
6 . The horseback riding fitness machine of claim 1 , wherein said force balancing member is comprised of a resilient member, and an end of said force balancing member is directly and pivotally coupled with said arm, and the other end is pivotally coupled with said swinging member through a link rod.
7 . The horseback riding fitness machine of claim 1 , wherein said force balancing member is produced by pivotally coupling both ends of force balancing member with said arm and a hydraulic cylinder of said swinging member respectively.
8 . The horseback riding fitness machine of claim 1 , wherein said swinging member and said arm have a set of dray accessories disposed at a pivotal connection position of said swinging member and said arm for adjusting the mobility between said swinging member and said arm and achieve an effect of changing the level of applying force for exercises.
9 . The horseback riding fitness machine of claim 8 , wherein said drag accessory is comprised of a drag wheel linked to said swinging member, said drag wheel has a flexible binder disposed around the periphery of said drag wheel, and one end of said flexible binder is fixed directly to said arm and the other end is coupled with said arm through a rigid slab, and said rigid slab has an adjusting bolt disposed on said rigid slab at a section proximate to said flexible binder for adjusting the level of attachment between said flexible binder and said drag wheel on said arm to generate the binding capability of said binder to said drag wheel and achieve the effect of adjusting the level of applying force for exercises.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
