[0031] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 ;

[0032] The utility model discloses a leg flexion and extension bending integrated training device: including rack 1 and the load module 2 of connecting on rack 1, drive arm 3 and seat 4.

[0033] Drive arm 3 rotatable connection is established in rack 1, and is located in the front of seat 4, the output of load module 2 is transmission connection with drive arm 3, and is used to provide resistance for the rotation of drive arm 3.

[0034] The seat 4 includes a seat pan 41 and a backrest 42. A crossbar 11 is provided on the frame 1. The crossbar 11 is tilted downward from one end near the seat 4 to the other. The seat pan 41 is fixedly connected to the crossbar 11, and the backrest 42 is rotatably connected to the crossbar 11. An angle locking assembly 43 is provided between the backrest 42 and the crossbar 11 to lock the angle between the backrest 42 and the seat pan 41. When the backrest 42 is rotated to align with the crossbar 11, the seat pan 41 and the backrest 42 are located on the same plane.

[0035] The angle between the chair back 42 and the seat 41 is adjusted through the angle locking component 43 so that the user is in a sitting position when sitting on it. Then the driving arm 3 is fitted with the ankle and the front of the thigh is exerted to enable smooth flexion and extension movements.

[0036] By adjusting the angle between the chair back 42 and the seat 41 through the angle locking component 43, the seat 41 and the chair back 42 are located on the same plane. The user can then lie on the seat 41 and the chair back 42 of the chair 4, and then fit the driving arm 3 with the back ankle or calf, and exert force on the back of the thigh so that the user can perform the curling exercise smoothly.

[0037] The leg flexion and extension curl integrated trainer of the utility model can not only perform leg flexion and extension exercises, but also leg curl exercises. Users can easily switch according to exercise needs without having to prepare two fitness equipment, which not only saves costs but also reduces space occupation.

[0038] The driving arm 3 includes a wheel disc 31, a first lever arm 32 and a second lever arm 33. The wheel disc 31 is rotatably connected to the frame 1, and the two ends of the first lever arm 32 are respectively vertically connected to the rotating shaft of the wheel disc 31 and the second lever arm 33; the wheel disc 31 and the second lever arm 33 are respectively arranged on both sides of the first lever arm 32, and the rotating shaft of the wheel disc 31 is arranged parallel to the second lever arm 33.

[0039] A sleeve 34 made of a flexible material (e.g., foam) is sleeved on the second arm 33, and the second arm 33 is rotatably connected to the first arm 32. The sleeve 34 made of a flexible material can make the user more comfortable when using the trainer and avoid injury to the ankle or calf.

[0040] An axially extending limit column 311 is provided on the wheel disc 31, and the limit column 311 is used to abut against the frame 1; the wheel disc 31 is provided with locking holes 312 distributed at intervals along its circumference, and the first force arm 32 is provided with a locking bolt 321, which is used to be connected to one of the locking holes 312, thereby locking the relative position between the limit column 311 and the first force arm 32.

[0041] When switching between leg flexion and extension training and leg curl training, the user can adjust the relative position between the limit column 311 and the first lever arm 32 by connecting the locking bolt 321 to different locking holes 312, so that when the second lever arm 33 is in the initial position, the limit column 311 can be against the frame 1; in this way, when the user unloads the force, the second lever arm 33 can only be reset to the initial position, preventing the second lever arm 33 from squeezing the user's ankle or calf.

[0042] The load module 2 includes a third lever arm 21, a load rod 22 and a cable 23; one end of the third lever arm 21 is hinged to the frame 1, and the other end is connected to the load rod 22, and the load rod 22 is used for connecting the barbell plates; one end of the cable 23 is connected to the third lever arm 21, and the other end is connected to the outer edge of the wheel 31.

[0043] When the user pushes the second lever arm 33 with his legs, the wheel 31 is driven to rotate. When the wheel 31 rotates, the barbell plate on the load rod 22 is pulled up through the cable 23, thereby increasing the load when pushing the second lever arm 33, thereby achieving a better exercise effect.

[0044] The load module 2 also includes a fixed pulley 24 fixedly connected to the frame 1. The fixed pulley 24 can change the path of the cable 23 to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the barbell plate so that it is closer to the center of the fitness equipment, making its center of gravity more stable and safer.

[0045] The angle locking assembly 43 includes an arc-shaped locking piece 431 and a latch 432. One end of the arc-shaped locking piece 431 is connected to the chair back 42, and the arc-shaped locking piece 431 is arranged concentrically with the rotation axis of the chair back 42. The crossbar 11 is provided with a first through-hole 111 extending through its upper and lower end surfaces, for the free end of the arc-shaped locking piece 431 to pass through. The side wall of the crossbar 11 is provided with a second through-hole 112 connected to the first through-hole 111. The arc-shaped locking piece 431 is provided with a plurality of pin holes 4311 evenly spaced apart. The free end of the latch 432 passes through the second through-hole 112 and the pin hole 4311 in sequence to lock the arc-shaped locking piece 431. The latch 432 cooperates with the pin hole 4311 to easily adjust the angle between the chair back 42 and the seat 41, which is not only convenient to adjust but also simple in structure.

[0046] A slot 421 matching the cross bar 11 is provided on one side wall of the chair back 42 away from the seat plate 41 for accommodating the cross bar 11. In this way, when the chair back 42 and the cross bar 11 are in contact, the cross bar 11 can be inserted into the slot 421 of the chair back 42, thereby making the chair back 42 more stable when it is laid flat.

[0047] A first handle 44 is arranged on the crossbar 11 near the seat plate 41, and a second handle 45 is arranged on the crossbar 11 away from the seat plate 41. The first handle 44 is parallel to the crossbar 11, and the second handle 45 is perpendicular to the crossbar 11. The positions of the first handle 44 and the second handle 45 are ergonomic, and after the user holds the handles, the upper body is naturally in a neutral position, which can effectively provide action guidance and provide effective support and stability for the upper body during training.

[0048] A vertical upward extending storage rod 12 is arranged on the rack 1 away from the seat 4, for placing and storing the barbell plates. The vertically arranged storage rod 12 makes the barbell plates more stable and safe, and the rear arrangement of the storage rod 12 also helps to keep the center of gravity in a neutral position, which can further stabilize the center of gravity of the equipment, thereby improving the stability, safety and training experience of the equipment.

[0049] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this. Any skilled person in the art can easily think of changes or replacements within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
