Embodiment Construction

[0014]Referring to FIGS. 1 to 8, an exercise device in accordance with the invention comprises the following components as discussed in detail below.

[0015]A base 1, a seat assembly 2 mounted on the base 2, a load mechanism 3, a first rowing unit 4, and a second rowing unit 5 are provided. The base 2 includes a legged, longitudinal tube 11, a front upright 12, a support 13 disposed rearward of the upright 12, an arm 14 pivotably secured to a lower portion of the support 13 and being perpendicular to the tube 11 in an inoperative position, a plurality of rollers (as detailed later), and two hooks 131 mounted on an inclined upper portion of the support 13. Each of the support 13 and the arm 14 has an n-shaped cross-section. The rollers includes first, second, and third roller elements 111, 112, and 113 mounted on a top surface of the tube 11; first, second, third, and fourth roller members 132, 133, 134, and 135 mounted in the support 13; and first, second, and third rollers 141, 142, ...

Abstract

An exercise device includes a base, a seat assembly mounted on the base, a load mechanism attached to an upright and including a take-up assembly and a flywheel coaxially secured to the take-up assembly, a first rowing unit configured to activate the load mechanism by pulling a spring activated strap, and a second rowing unit configured to activate both the load mechanism and the first rowing unit by pulling the strap and pivotably rotating a handle via a cord which is operatively connected to a pivotal arm on the base.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The invention relates to exercise equipment and more particularly to an exercise device for simulating rowing motion by implementing a first exercise mode of operating a first rowing unit or a second exercise mode of operating a second rowing unit.[0003]2. Description of Related Art[0004]Watercraft sports involving a person to propel a watercraft (e.g., small boat) through a river or lake are popular outdoor activities. Conventionally, an exerciser is designed to simulate a single rowing motion. This means that a user has to buy two different types of such exerciser for rowing training purpose. Thus, it is desirable of providing an exerciser for simulating two different types of rowing motion.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0005]It is therefore one object of the invention to provide an exercise device comprising a base, a seat assembly mounted on the base, a load mechanism, a first rowing unit configured to activate the load m...
