Detachable Exercise Deck for Compact Indoor Exercise
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Exercise devices often require substantial space and are limited in their functionality and convenience due to their large form factor, making them less suitable for various indoor environments and uses.
Innovation Solution
An exercise device with a detachable exercise deck that can be separated from the upright base, allowing independent operation and positioning in different environments, and equipped with vibration isolation to reduce noise and stability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Area of stationary object
If the exercise device uses a traditional integrated design, then the structural stability and support are sufficient, but the device occupies substantial space and cannot be easily stored or positioned in various indoor environments
Solution Approach 1:
The exercise device is divided into separate modules: an upright base and a deck base that can be detached from each other. The deck base includes the exercise deck and can be separated from the upright base, allowing the device to occupy less space when stored while maintaining structural integrity when assembled for use.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the exercise device is designed with a large form factor to ensure stability and functionality, then the structural strength is sufficient, but the device becomes limited in functionality and convenience for various indoor uses
Solution Approach 1:
The exercise device transitions from a static integrated structure to a dynamic modular configuration. The deck base can be detached from the upright base, allowing the device to adapt to different usage scenarios such as limited space storage, different indoor environments, and various exercise needs while maintaining operational convenience.
3Object-affected harmful factors
If the exercise device components are rigidly connected to ensure stability during exercise, then the structural rigidity is sufficient, but vibrations and noise are not isolated, affecting user experience
Solution Approach 1:
Vibration isolation members are introduced as intermediary elements between the deck base and the upright base. These isolation members reduce vibrations and noise transmission while allowing the modular connection system to function, balancing vibration isolation requirements with connection simplicity.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.

AI summary
An exercise device includes an upright base and at least one upright connected to the upright base. The exercise device includes a deck base configured to detachably connect to the upright base with a connection. The exercise device further includes an exercise deck connected to the deck base. The exercise is configured to perform an exercise operation when the deck base is connected to the upright base, and to perform the exercise operation when the deck base is not connected to the upright base.
