Pivoting Frame Core Trainer for Multiple Exercise Modes
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional fitness devices for core training have limited exercise modes, requiring multiple devices for varied workouts, increasing cost and space requirements, and are not as convenient due to their multi-functionality and weight.
Innovation Solution
A multifunctional core training device with a first and second frame body, elastic elements, a sliding structure, and a switch, allowing the second frame body to pivot relative to the first, enabling multiple exercise modes such as rowing, abdominal training, and Roman chair exercises without the need for additional equipment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If conventional fitness devices are used for core training, then exercise mode variety is limited, but multiple devices are required which increases cost and space requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The fitness device incorporates a frame body with a movable member that can pivot between different positions, allowing a single device to perform multiple exercise modes including abdominal exercises, back exercises, and leg exercises, thereby eliminating the need for multiple separate devices and reducing space requirements
2Adaptability or versatility
If fitness devices with multi-function are provided, then exercise mode variety increases, but the device becomes heavier and occupies more space
Solution Approach 1:
The device employs a movable member that can pivot dynamically between different positions to achieve various exercise modes. This dynamic configuration allows a single lighter structure to replace multiple static heavy devices, reducing overall weight while maintaining multi-functionality through motion and repositioning
3Adaptability or versatility
If conventional fitness devices are used, then device simplicity is maintained, but exercise mode variety is limited requiring extra devices
Solution Approach 1:
The device is divided into a frame body and a movable member that can be independently positioned and secured. This segmentation allows the movable member to be repositioned for different exercise modes while the frame body remains stable, achieving multi-functionality through modular design without excessive complexity

AI summary
A multifunctional core training device includes a first frame body, a second frame body, a holding device, two elastic elements, two forcing elements, a sliding structure, and a switch. The second frame body is pivotally disposed on the first frame body. The holding device is disposed on the first frame body. The two elastic elements are disposed on the first frame body. The two forcing elements are respectively connected to the two elastic elements. The sliding structure is movably disposed on the first frame body. The switch is disposed on the sliding structure and is for positioning a position of the sliding structure relative to the first frame body. When the second frame body pivots relative to the first frame body, the relative position of the first frame body and the second frame body is changed.
