Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of strength training devices, specifically to a lat pulldown strength training device. Background Technology

[0002] The lat pulldown machine is a strength training device specifically designed to work the back muscles, especially the latissimus dorsi. It simulates a pull-up by pulling down a horizontal bar while seated, helping to strengthen upper body strength, improve posture, and enhance scapular stability. Due to its relatively fixed movement trajectory, it is safe for fitness enthusiasts at different levels and is one of the most frequently used core pieces of equipment in gyms. Users can progressively train by selecting different weights and handles. The main target muscle groups include the latissimus dorsi, teres major, teres minor, trapezius, posterior deltoid, and biceps brachii, making it an essential exercise for sculpting a V-shaped physique and improving rounded shoulders and hunchback. Traditional lat pulldown machines have a relatively simple cable trajectory, which is basically a straight up and down movement. When users need to use one arm, they need to better contract the target muscle group, resulting in a large overall range of motion. However, traditional lat pulldown machines are not suitable for unilateral use, as the overall force line movement trajectory will be limited. In addition, traditional lat pulldown machines do not allow users to separate their hands to grip the handles, which may not be applicable in some situations. Furthermore, if damage occurs, the breakage of a single cable may cause the user to fall and get injured. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this application is to provide a lat pulldown strength training device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: including an adaptive mechanism disposed on the top of the counterweight support;

[0005] The adaptive mechanism includes a fixed rod fixedly mounted on the top of the counterweight support. A movable pulley assembly is provided at the end of the fixed rod away from the counterweight support. The movable pulley assembly includes a pair of rotating cylinders rotatably mounted on the end of the fixed rod away from the counterweight support. Each rotating cylinder is fixedly mounted with a corresponding movable pulley plate. A first pulley is rotatably arranged at equal intervals in each movable pulley plate. The movable pulley assembly also includes a hook buckle. The hook buckle is fixedly connected to a corresponding steel wire rope. The steel wire rope is slidably connected to its corresponding first pulley.

[0006] Preferably, the fixed rod near the end of the counterweight bracket is also provided with fixed pulley plates arranged at equal intervals. A corresponding second pulley is fixed between each pair of fixed pulley plates. Each wire rope slides through the corresponding second pulley and is wound and connected to the third pulley. The third pulley is rotatably arranged in the fixed drum plate. The fixed drum plate is fixedly connected to the pin plate in the counterweight plate group. The counterweight plate group consists of multiple counterweight plates and pin plates. Each counterweight plate has a corresponding hole. The pin plate in the counterweight plate group is fixedly connected to the topmost counterweight plate in it. The counterweight plate group also includes counterweight plate pins.

[0007] Preferably, a pair of counterweight limiting rods are also fixedly provided inside the counterweight support, the pin plate in the counterweight plate group and each counterweight plate are slidably connected to the counterweight limiting rods, a first fixing plate is also fixedly provided on the counterweight support, and a first auxiliary handle is also fixedly provided on the first fixing plate.

[0008] Preferably, a seat bracket is also fixedly provided on one side of the counterweight support, a seat is fixedly provided on the seat bracket, a fixing sleeve is also fixedly provided on the seat bracket, a sliding rod is slidably provided inside the fixing sleeve, a pair of leg limiting plates are fixedly provided at the top of the sliding rod, a second fixing plate is also fixedly provided on the leg limiting plate, a second auxiliary handle is also fixedly provided on the second fixing plate, a spring pin is also fixedly provided on the fixing sleeve, holes are equidistantly arranged on the sliding rod, the spring pin is composed of a spring and a pin, and the pin inside the spring pin is slidably connected to the fixing sleeve.

[0009] Preferably, the counterweight bracket is provided with handle hooks arranged at equal intervals, and a connecting rod is fixedly provided at the end of the counterweight bracket away from the seat bracket, and the connecting rod is also provided with a crossbar groove.

[0010] Compared with existing technologies, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: By setting an adaptive mechanism and a pair of movable pulley groups, each connected by a corresponding rotating shaft, the present invention allows the movable pulley groups to swing left and right according to the direction of force on the steel wire rope. This makes the user's pull-down trajectory no longer rigidly vertical, but rather an arc-shaped movement centered on the shoulder according to ergonomics. Furthermore, the separate-motion design allows the user to perform single-arm training or alternating training, correcting imbalances in left and right muscle strength. Attached Figure Description

The steel wire rope 28 is slidably connected to its corresponding first pulley 27, and slides between the first pulleys 27. The hook buckle 29 is used to connect to a handle.

[0024] Advantageously, fixed pulley plates 23 are also equidistantly arranged and fixed at one end of the fixed rod 22 near the counterweight bracket 11. A corresponding second pulley 24 is fixed between each pair of fixed pulley plates 23. Each wire rope 28 slides through the corresponding second pulley 24 and is wound and connected to the third pulley 37. The third pulley 37 is rotatably disposed in the fixed drum plate 36. The fixed drum plate 36 is fixedly connected to the pin plate in the counterweight plate group 15. The counterweight plate group 15 is composed of multiple counterweight plates 38 and pin plates. Each counterweight plate 38 is provided with a corresponding hole. The pin plate in the counterweight plate group 15 is fixedly connected to the topmost counterweight plate 38. The counterweight plate group 15 also includes a counterweight plate pin 32. The counterweight plate pin 32 can cooperate with the hole on the counterweight plate 38 and the pin hole on the pin plate to lock the corresponding counterweight plate 38.

[0025] Advantageously, a pair of counterweight limiting rods 14 are also fixedly provided inside the counterweight support 11, and the pin plate in the counterweight plate group 15 and each of the counterweight plates 38 are slidably connected to the counterweight limiting rods 14. A first fixing plate 30 is also fixedly provided on the counterweight support 11, and a first auxiliary grip 31 is also fixedly provided on the first fixing plate 30. The first auxiliary grip 31 is used for convenient support.

[0026] Advantageously, a seat bracket 12 is also fixedly mounted on one side of the counterweight support 11, a seat 13 is fixedly mounted on the seat bracket 12, and a fixing sleeve 18 is also fixedly mounted on the seat bracket 12. A sliding rod 19 is slidably mounted inside the fixing sleeve 18, and a pair of leg limiting plates 17 are fixedly mounted on the top of the sliding rod 19. The leg limiting plates 17 are used to hold the user's knees. A second fixing plate 20 is also fixedly mounted on the leg limiting plate 17, and a second auxiliary grip 21 is also fixedly mounted on the second fixing plate 20. The second auxiliary grip 21 is used to assist the user in gripping. A spring pin 35 is also fixedly mounted on the fixing sleeve 18.

[0028] How to use this invention:

[0029] When the user wants to use this device, they should manually pull open the spring pin 35 to release the lock of the spring pin 35 on the sliding rod 19. Holding the second auxiliary grip 21, the user should lift the leg limiting plate 17 and the sliding rod 19 to a suitable height, sufficient so that the thigh is just against the bottom surface of the leg limiting plate 17. The user then needs to decide which handle to use based on their needs. If using a normal linkage handle, connect the handle to the two hooks 29 and insert the corresponding counterweight 38 through the counterweight pin 32. The device can be used normally within the holes, with little difference from a normal lat pulldown machine. When the user wants to use it alternately on one side, the user connects the two identical handles to the corresponding hooks 29. Then, depending on the needs, the user can pull down with both hands simultaneously or alternately. The rotating cylinder 25 will drive the movable pulley plate 26 to rotate. Through the rotation of the movable pulley plate 26, the trajectory of the steel cable 28 being pulled down is made to better match the force line trajectory of the user on one side, making the overall force line smoother, the target muscle group contraction effect better, and improving the overall training effect.
