Computer directed exercising apparatus

A mechanical and electronic apparatus which utilizes off-setting positive and negative muscle effort to provide a complete body muscle exerciser. The exerciser is constructed so that left side and right side symmetrical muscle groups are caused to work against one another, with one muscle group moving in extension providing resistance for the symmetrical muscle group to work thereagainst in contraction. A mechanical gear drive train is interposed between the opposing symmetrical muscle groups to transmit the forces exerted thereby, and to guide the user's limbs so that the directions of motion are exactly opposite, and to assure that one muscle group contracts simultaneously with the extension of the other. Electrical sensors are coupled to the mechanical drive train to indicate the resistance being experienced by each muscle group; and also to indicate the position of the muscle groups, that is, the distance they have moved in their excursion. The electrical signals produced by the sensors are processed in a microcomputer which drives appropriate audio and visual displays.

Knee and leg orthopedic exercising device

A knee and leg orthopedic exercising device is shown for use by a person that is seated in a chair. The device itself is a wide leg rest that may accommodate both legs of the user, although it could be used for one leg at a time. This leg rest has a side profile of an inverted capital T having a vertical shank portion that is supported from a generally perpendicular crown portion. The edge of one end of the crown portion is provided with an elongated roller which is adapted to roll upon a floor surface. The top side of the side of the crown portion which is remote from the roller serves as a footrest, while the side of the shank portion of the leg rest which is remote from the roller serves to support the shank of at least one of the legs of the user. This leg rest is provided with holding straps for holding the shank portion of the leg rest against the underside of the shank portion of the user's leg as the user flexes the leg between a vertical and an inclined, outstretched position. Two modifications of these holding straps are shown. One modification includes a pair of hand straps to be engaged by the user's hands for exerting a pulling force and ensuring that the crown portion of the leg rest remains against the foot or feet of the user. A second modification of holding straps is the use of a pair of leg straps which are wound around the user's legs and around the shank portion of the leg rest to bind the leg to the leg rest so that they move in unison.

Strength training device for assisting aerobics exercises

本发明公开了一种辅助健美操练习的力量训练装置，包括：箱体、弹力板以及负载部等，本发明在使用时，需要运动员用力将负载部向箱体的上端移动，此时负载部会受到来自斜置弹性板的逐渐增加的弹性阻力，使其符合肢体做加速运动时的肌肉发力模式，运动员便可以练习到做加速运动时的肢体力量；而当运动员克服弹性板的负载向上加速运动肢体，使负载部略过弹性板时，由于弹性载荷消失，此时运动员需要紧急制动正处于加速的肢体与正在发力的肌肉，能够很好地训练制动时对力量的控制性；若运动员在负载部打到制动挡板之前停止运动，说明运动员动作已达标，通过这样的训练方式保证制动动作的精确度，从而帮助运动训练操化动作。
