Abstract

An exercising inversion table includes a base frame, a support post, a main post, a bench, and a lift unit. Thus, the user initially lies on the bench in a horizontal manner, thereby providing a comfortable sensation to the user when using the inversion table. In addition, the foot support post is disposed at a slightly bent state to satisfy the ergonomic design, so that the user's feet are placed on the support seat and pressed between the foot support bar and the ankle support bar smoothly and naturally, thereby providing a comfortable sensation to the user when using the inversion table.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An inversion table, comprising: 
 a base frame;    a support post mounted on the base frame;    a main post pivotally mounted on the support post;    a lift unit mounted on the base frame and connected to the main post to drive the main post to pivot relative to the support post.    
   
   
       2 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 1 , wherein the lift unit includes a lift rod pivotally connected to the main post, and a drive motor mounted on the lift rod to drive the lift rod to move outward and retract inward.  
   
   
       3 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 2 , wherein the lift rod of the lift unit has a first end pivotally connected to the main post and a second end pivotally connected to the base frame.  
   
   
       4 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 2 , wherein the drive motor of the lift unit is operated by a remote controller.  
   
   
       5 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 1 , further comprising a foot support post mounted on an end of the main post.  
   
   
       6 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 5 , wherein the foot support post is disposed at a slightly bent state.  
   
   
       7 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 5 , further comprising a knee support bar mounted on the foot support post for placing a user's knees.  
   
   
       8 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 5 , further comprising a support seat mounted on a front end of the foot support post for placing a user's feet and ankles.  
   
   
       9 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 8 , further comprising a foot support bar pivotally mounted on an upper portion of the support seat, and an ankle support bar securely mounted on a lower portion of the support seat and located under the foot support bar  62 .  
   
   
       10 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 1 , wherein the main post is normally disposed at a horizontal state.  
   
   
       11 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 1 , further comprising a bench mounted on the main post to move therewith.  
   
   
       12 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 11 , wherein the bench is normally disposed at a horizontal state.  
   
   
       13 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 11 , wherein the support post functions as a fulcrum of the main post and the bench.  
   
   
       14 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 11 , further comprising two opposite handles mounted on the main post and located beside the bench.  
   
   
       15 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 1 , wherein the drive motor of the lift unit drives the lift rod to move toward the main post.  
   
   
       16 . The inversion table in accordance with  claim 9 , wherein the foot support bar is pushed to pivot upward to allow placement of a user's feet between the foot support bar and the ankle support bar, so that the foot support bar presses the user's feet by its gravity, thereby preventing the user's feet from being detached from the support seat during an inversion exercising process.
