Benefits of technology

[0013]The primary object therefore of the present invention is to provide an exercising device with combined stepping and twisting functions that is capable of performing more functions or functionalities such as stepping, twisting and combination of both, including provision of stepper resistance, with less elements or mechanisms, thus, very efficient, practical and economical to use, manufacture and commercialize.
[0014]Another object of the present invention is to provide an exercising

Problems solved by technology

The foregoing exercisers do not provide a selection and locking mechanism to allow the user to choose a preferred function, i.e. stepping or twisting or both combined.
Careful analysis of the aforementioned prior art reveals that all their actuating mechanisms that allow their functionalities

Abstract

The present invention relates to an exercising device with combined stepping and twisting functions comprising a base member, a stepper mechanism mounted on the base member, a stepper assembly pivotably and rotatably secured with respect to the stepper mechanism and base member in a manner that the stepper assembly is capable of performing simultaneously or one at a time stepping and twisting functions through an engaging rotatable mechanism into which the stepper assembly is movably engaged through a linkage means, and a selecting mechanism for selectively activating or deactivating the functions being provided thereto.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention generally relates to construction forms and more specifically to an exercising device with combined stepping and twisting functions.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]In the prior art in which this invention appertains, exercising devices having combined stepping and twisting functions are well known. The trend of the advancement of the art is seemingly headed towards the development and improvement of different mechanisms that are used to provide the combined stepping and twisting functions. These prior art are discussed briefly hereunder.[0003]U.S. Pat. No. 5,628,709 discloses an exerciser having stepping and twisting functions in which its pedal arms cause their respective tubular sleeves to rotate about a cylindrical body when pressure is applied on one of the pedal arms, thereby resulting in the combined stepping and twisting functions.[0004]GB 2395443 discloses a stepping exerciser wherein the twisting function is cause...
