Elliptical Exercise Machine Adjustable Foot Motion Bracket

The patent applies the dynamics principle by making the bracket position adjustable rather than fixed. The bracket that connects the link arm to the foot support can be repositioned along the link arm, allowing the elliptical path geometry to change dynamically. This enables users to adjust exercise intensity by changing bracket position, while maintaining a relatively simple mechanical structure without requiring complex control systems or multiple complete mechanisms.

The patent implements parameter changes by allowing the bracket position parameter to be varied. By changing the position of the bracket along the link arm, the geometry of the elliptical path changes, which directly alters the exercise parameters such as path length, verticality, and resistance. This provides exercise level adjustment through simple geometric parameter modification rather than complex mechanical changes.

The dynamic adjustability of the bracket position allows users to readily change resistance levels by simply repositioning the bracket along the link arm. This mechanical adjustment changes the elliptical path geometry, which naturally alters the resistance characteristics of the exercise motion. The system provides easy operation through direct mechanical adjustment rather than requiring complex control interfaces or multiple resistance mechanisms.

By changing the bracket position parameter along the link arm, the exercise resistance parameter is directly modified. The geometric change in the elliptical path caused by bracket repositioning inherently adjusts the resistance level, providing an intuitive and easy method for users to control exercise intensity without additional complex adjustment mechanisms.
