Abstract

A tilting inversion exerciser includes a table pivotally supported on a lower supporting stand for supporting a user, a planar member readily attached to the table with one or more straps, and a vibration generating device for generating a vibration to vibrate the user, particularly the joints or the articular cartilages or the joint capsules of the user when the user and the table are tilted or inverted relative to the lower supporting stand and when the joints of the user are opened. An infrared ray generating device may further be attached to the planar member for generating an infrared ray to warm the user.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A tilting inversion exerciser comprising:
 a lower supporting stand,   a table pivotally supported on said lower supporting stand for supporting a user, and   a vibrating assembly including a planar member, means for generating a vibration to vibrate the user, and at least one strap attached to said planar member for engaging with said table and for securing said planar member to said table.   
   
   
       2 . (canceled) 
   
   
       3 . The tilting inversion exerciser as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said at least one strap of said planar member is attached to a side portion of said table. 
   
   
       4 . The tilting inversion exerciser as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said at least one strap of said planar member is attached to an upper portion of said table. 
   
   
       5 . The tilting inversion exerciser as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said at least one strap of said planar member is attached to a lower portion of said table. 
   
   
       6 . The tilting inversion exerciser as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said vibration generating means includes at least one housing attached to said planar member, a motor received in said at least one housing, and an eccentric member attached to said motor for generating the vibration. 
   
   
       7 . The tilting inversion exerciser as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein said at least one housing includes two housing members coupled together. 
   
   
       8 . The tilting inversion exerciser as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein said motor is coupled to a processing device, and said processing device is coupled to a control device for allowing said motor and said processing device to be operated by said control device. 
   
   
       9 . The tilting inversion exerciser as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising means for generating an infrared ray. 
   
   
       10 . The tilting inversion exerciser as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein said infrared ray generating means includes at least one casing attached to said planar member, and at least one light member received in said at least one casing for generating the infrared ray. 
   
   
       11 . The tilting inversion exerciser as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein said at least one casing includes a lower casing member and an upper cover coupled together. 
   
   
       12 . The tilting inversion exerciser as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein said at least one casing includes a circuit board disposed in said casing for supporting said at least one light member.
