Adductor Abductor Exercise Device with Rolling Cylinder Channels
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current exercise machines fail to effectively exercise both adductor and abductor muscles simultaneously, often requiring separate machines and are typically expensive.
Innovation Solution
A multi-component exercise device featuring a base with channels, a slant board, rolling cylinders, an overhead handle bar, anchor bar, connecting bar, seat support, footpad, and foot strap, allowing users to engage both adductor and abductor muscles through a single apparatus.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a single exercise device is designed to exercise both adductor and abductor muscles, then equipment cost and space are reduced, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The exercise device incorporates a multi-component system including a base with channels, a slant board with rolling cylinders, an overhead handle bar system, and a seat support. This universal design allows a single device to perform both adductor and abductor exercises through different movement patterns and component configurations, eliminating the need for separate machines for each muscle group.
2Device complexity
If separate machines are used for adductor and abductor exercises, then device complexity is reduced, but equipment cost and space requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the functionality of separate adductor and abductor exercise machines into a single integrated device. The base with channels, slant board, rolling cylinders, and overhead handle bar system are combined into one unified structure that can accommodate both types of exercises, reducing the total number of devices needed while maintaining functional simplicity through modular component design.
