Benefits of technology

[0007] An object of the present invention is to create a gymnastic machine for the simulated execution of the movement of skating, having compact dimensions and free of the disadvantages described above.

Problems solved by technology

Naturally this produces a significant complication in production, with a corresponding considerable economic impact, for example because of the need to produce asymmetrical frames, having fulcrum pins inclined differently.
This aspect contributes to increasing the cost of the machine, particularly because of the numerous pieces of workshop equipment which must be provided in order to simplify production work, particularly in the case of small production volumes.

Embodiment Construction

[0019] In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 indicates, in its entirety, a gymnastic machine having a frame 10 which supports a load unit 20 and an exercise station 30 arranged side by side. This station 30 is capable of exchanging mechanical energy with load unit 20 and has a group 31 of mechanical components articulated together, which include at least one articulated quadrilateral 32 coupled to the frame 10, and an implement 40 shaped so as to be interfaceable with a particular portion of an articular extremity of a user. In the example used to illustrate the present invention, it was decided to opt for a solution in which the extremity of a user is the lower one, therefore a foot, without this choice being considered limiting for the possibility of applying the invention itself to other articular extremities of a user. Each articulated quadrilateral 32 includes some mechanical members, which have been designated here and in what follows according to the terminology used in the field of...

Abstract

Gymnastic machine (1) having a frame (10) supporting a load unit (20) and including an exercise station (30) having at least one functional group (31) mechanically connected to the load unit (20) to exchange mechanical energy with the load unit (20); the group (31) including at least one articulated quadrilateral (32) coupled to the frame (10) and an implement (40) connected to the articulated quadrilateral (32) and movable with respect to the frame (10) to exchange energy with the load unit (20); the implement (40) being shaped in such a way as to be interfaceable with a particular portion of an extremity of a user and being movable over an open path (P); a restraint device (52) being provided in combination with at least one articulated quadrilateral to control, in use, the displacement of the implement (40) relative to the frame (10) in such a way that, in use, the implement (40) is movable along path (P) according to a substantially curvilinear composite movement.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a machine effectively usable for executing physical exercises. In general, this invention can have application both in gymnastic machines for the execution of exercises aimed principally at muscular development, and in machines set up for the execution of training of cyclical type, and therefore aimed principally at the development of resistance to prolonged exertion. In more detail the present invention relates to a gymnastic machine having at least one implement usable for the repeated execution of reciprocating movements over an open path through the use of an articulated device. [0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art [0004] In the field of gymnastic machines there are known machines for the execution of exercises which involve / recruit a single muscle area; machines for the execution of exercises which recruit several muscle areas simultaneously or in succession, and for this reas...
