Background Art
[0002] Recently, the public's interest in fitness has increased, and with the development of media related to natural exercise postures, it has become very easy to learn relevant knowledge.
[0003] However, in the case of exercise equipment, since the price is not low, most people pay a fee at a gym to use the equipment. However, when there are many people during a specific time period or on a holiday, they often have to wait to use the exercise equipment they desire. Accordingly, the need for exercise equipment that allows multiple people to perform many types of exercises without occupying a large space is increasing.
[0004] Conventional high-low machines are used by many people for latissimus dorsi exercises, but there is a problem in that the grip is limited and it is not possible to intensively exercise more diverse parts.
[0005] Therefore, research is required on a high-low machine provided with a first angle adjustment unit and a second angle adjustment unit based on each of two axes orthogonal to the grip unit, so that the handle angle can be adjusted at various angles according to the needs of a user, and a specific part can be targeted for concentrated exercise by selecting a grip method.

[0075] First, the user can fix a weight plate of a desired weight to the weight unit 30. Also, the handle 161 can be adjusted and fixed at a desired angle by the first angle adjustment unit 162 and the second angle adjustment unit 163. Next, the user can sit on the seating portion 170 with the main body frame 120 retracted and adjust the height of the seat portion 174 according to the size of the user's body. Next, the angle of the knee support portion 176 can be adjusted by the support angle adjustment unit 177 to fix the user's legs. If necessary, the user can grip the handle 161 with one hand or both hands and lower the grip portion 160 so that one end of the rotating portion 140 is moved from the raised position (see Fig. 9(a)) to the lowered position (see Fig. 9(b)), thereby lifting the weight plate of the weight unit 130 to exercise. Of course, the above-described operations may be performed while looking at the main body frame 120. When the user lowers the grip portion 160 while gripping it, the rotating portion 140 connected to the grip portion 160 rotates, and the weight unit 130 connected to the connecting portion 150 is lifted according to the rotation of the rotating portion 140. During exercise, if a change in weight is desired, the weight can be changed by adjusting the length of the connecting portion 150.
[0076] As described above, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the first angle adjustment unit and the second angle adjustment unit based on each of the two axes orthogonal to the grip portion are provided, so that the handle angle can be adjusted at various angles according to the needs of the user, and the grip method can be selected to have the effect of concentrating exercise on a specific part.
