Benefits of technology

The technical effects of this patent text are as follows: easy installation, changing, and removal of elastic cords from the device; and a rugged construction that can withstand abuse during exercise, storage, and transportation.

Problems solved by technology

Although the resistance or pull exerciser is very simple in construction there are several complications especially when using the same device for exercising diverse muscle groups.
Each one of the elastic cord changes is an opportunity for a user to partially seat the cord in the anchor plate resulting in a cord snapping loose during the exercise.

Embodiment Construction

[0024]FIG. 1 shows the anchor plate assembly 10 and the elastic cord assembly 20 of the present invention. The anchor plate assembly 10 is made up of the anchor plate 11 which has a through opening 12 for through passage of the elastic cord assembly 20 the attachment of which will be further described in the paragraph addressing the features of FIG. 2. The anchor plate 11 also incorporates two slots 13 for attachment of the handle assembly 40 which will be explained in the paragraph addressing features of FIG. 3.

[0025]FIG. 1 further shows two pivots 14 that in the preferred embodiment are pins extending from one side of the “U” shaped anchor plate 11 to the other side of the anchor plate 11. A first cord keeper 15 is rotatibly connected to the anchor plate 11 via one of the two pivots 14 and a second cord keeper 16 is similarly rotatibly connected to the anchor plate 11 via the other of the two pivots 14. The first cord keeper 15 and the second cord keeper 16 are shown in the open p...

Abstract

Disclosed is a new and improved hand grip, cord and cord anchoring device for a resistance exerciser. The device is designed to meet current trends requiring frequent cord installation, changing of cord position and cord removal from the exerciser. A combination of hardware that facilitates installation of the cords axially into full circumference holes the cord anchor plate and two counter-rotating cord keepers allow for easy cord changes with an emphasis on safety during use. The device accommodates use of a wide range of cord lengths and diameters as well as grouping assemblies for multiple cords in one handgrip assembly with individual RRESISTANCE keepers for each cord.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The invention is a new and novel hand grip and chord anchoring device for resistance exercise and fitness devices. In particular the device is grasped with one hand grip in each hand. Separating the hands stretches one or more elastic bands that are attached between the hand grips in the performance of a variety of body building and muscle toning exercises. The trend of change of exercise regimens is to exercise an increasing number of muscle groups using resistance exercisers. This trend increases the number of elastic cord changes in one exercise session resulting in a need for ease and safety of the changing of elastic cords.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Resistance exercise is the common term for strength-building exercises that depend on use of resistance to motion of the body promote muscle growth. As one of the more common forms of health and fitness exercise, this approach commonly makes use of some type of spring or elastic device that exerts r...
