DETAILED DESCRIPTION


FIG. 1A depicts an example of a collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 in an example expanded position and an example incline position. Generally, the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 is more portable, more comfortable and more easily stored than traditional incline benches. In the example of FIG. 1A, the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 includes a fixed bench frame 102, an adjustable incline support frame 104, incline support members 106a-b, a first pair of folding legs 108a-b, and a second pair of folding legs 110a-b. When the folding legs 106 and 108 are folded out (e.g., as shown here in FIG. 1A and also in FIG. 1D), that can be referred to as an expanded position. When the folding legs 106 and 108 are folded in (e.g., as shown in FIG. 1E) and the adjustable incline support frame 104 is in a flat position (e.g., a 0-degree incline and as shown in FIG. 1E), that can be referred to as a collapsed position.


In a specific implementation, the fixed bench frame 102 is configured to support the adjustable incline support frame 102 and include the folding legs 108-110 affixed thereto. The fixed bench frame 102 can be made of a rigid material (e.g., steel, aluminum, and/or polymer). In some embodiments, the fixed bench frame 102 itself is not moved (or, not capable of being moved) to achieve an incline for the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100, but rather maintains a fixed flat shape that is affixed to the folding legs 108-110. This is in contrast to traditional incline benches wherein the bench frame is manipulated in order to achieve various incline positions.


In a specific implementation (e.g., in order to achieve various incline positions with a fixed bench frame), the fixed bench frame 102 includes parallel channels 112a-b embedded along at least a portion of the fixed bench frame 102, as well as including opposing parallel channels on the adjustable incline support frame 104 (e.g., as shown and discussed further with reference to FIG. 1B). A first end of the incline support member 106a is positioned (e.g., adjustably affixed) within the channel 112a, and a second end of the incline support member 106a is positioned (e.g., adjustably affixed) within the opposing channel of the adjustable incline support frame 104 (e.g., as shown and discussed further with reference to FIG. 1B). Similarly, a first end of the incline support member 106b is positioned (e.g., adjustably affixed) within the channel 112b, and a second end of the incline support member 106b is positioned (e.g., adjustably affixed) within the opposing channel of the adjustable incline support frame 104 (e.g., as shown and discussed further with reference to FIG. 1B). The adjustable incline support frame 104 can be positioned (e.g., locked) at various incline levels by the incline support members 106 sliding, or otherwise moving, to various positions (e.g., a 30-degree position, a 45-degree position, a 60-degree position) in their respective channels 112. For example, the incline support members 106 can be configured to slide, or otherwise move, through the corresponding channels on the fixed bench frame 102 and/or channels of the adjustable incline support frame 104. The incline support members 106 can be made of a rigid material, such as steel, aluminum, titanium, polymer, and/or the like. In a specific implementation, the incline support members 106 can be positioned at predetermined incline levels (e.g., a 30-degree position, a 45-degree position, a 60-degree position), and/or any incline level along the channels 112 (e.g., 31.3-degree position, 42-degree position).


In a specific implementation, the adjustable incline support frame 104 is configured to support a user's body during exercise. For example, a user can sit on a first portion 105a of the adjustable incline support frame 104 and lean their back or stomach against a second portion 105b of the adjustable incline support frame 104.


In a specific implementation, the adjustable incline support frame 104 has continuous surfaces (e.g., outer surface(s), top surface, bottom surface, sides surfaces) without any gaps, and can be, or appear to be, a single unified structure and/or a single material. Thus, for example, there is no gap between the first portion 105a of the adjustable incline support frame 104 and the second portion 105b of the adjustable incline support frame 104. This can, for example, provide increased user comfort relative to traditional incline benches which typically have a gap between the portion a user sits on a portion that the user leans on. This structure of the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 can also provide increased portability when the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 is in a collapsed position because, for example, the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 is more compact since it does not have such aforementioned gaps, and therefore has a more compact structure.


In a specific implementation, the adjustable incline support frame 104 is flexible (e.g., capable of hinging) at one or more points of the adjustable incline support frame 104. For example, the adjustable incline support frame 104 can hinge at location 105c of the adjustable incline support frame 104 to achieve various levels of incline relative to the fixed bench frame 102. The flexibility at the one or more points of the adjustable incline support frame 104 can allow the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 104 to achieve incline positions without any gaps between the first portion 105a of the adjustable incline support frame 104 and the second portion 105b of the adjustable incline support frame 104, which can, for example, increase user comfort relative to traditional incline benches.


In a specific implementation, the adjustable incline support frame 104 comprises one or more layers of padding or other material suitable for comfortably supporting a user body. For example, a soft layer (e.g., foam layer) may be positioned between two semi-rigid or flexible layers (e.g., rubber, plastic, and/or the like). In one example, the adjustable incline support frame 104 comprises flexible material (e.g., padding) that allows the adjustable incline support frame 104 to be adjusted to various incline levels. In another example, the adjustable incline support frame 104 can include one or more components (e.g., a hinge mechanism(s)) within the adjustable incline support frame 104 that allows the adjustable incline support frame 104 to be adjusted to various incline levels.


In a specific implementation, at least a portion of the adjustable incline support frame 104 is adjustably coupled (or, affixed or attached) to the fixed bench frame 102. For example, the first portion 105a of adjustable incline support frame 104 can be affixed to the fixed bench frame 102, while the second portion 105b of the adjustable incline support frame 104 can be moved to various incline positions, such as between lying flush against the fixed bench frame 102 (e.g., a in a flat position) to various incline positions.


In a specific implementation, the first portion 105a of the adjustable incline support frame and the second portion 105a of the adjustable incline support frame 104 comprises a single continuous or contiguous component (e.g., without any gaps in an outer surface), although in other implementations, they can be different components that are connected (e.g., by a hinge) such that the adjustable incline support frame 104 appears to be a single continuous contiguous component (e.g., without any gaps in an outer surface).


In a specific implementation, the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 includes two pairs of folding legs 108a-b and 110a-b. In the example of the FIG. 1A, the folding legs 108a-b and 110a-b are shown in an expanded position. The folding legs 108a-b and 110a-b can be folded inwards in order to collapse the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 (e.g., as shown in FIG. 1D), and the folding legs 108a-b and 110a-b can be folded outwards in order to expand the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100, as shown in FIG. 1A.



FIG. 1B depicts an example incline adjustment mechanism 120 of a collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100. In the example of FIG. 1B, an example rear-view of the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 is shown (e.g., as opposed to the example front-view shown in FIG. 1A). The incline adjustment mechanism 120 includes a third channel 122a and a fourth channel 122b, as well as the first channel 112a and the second channel 112b in an incline setting frame 124 of the fixed bench frame 102, the first the incline support member 106a, and the second incline support member 106b.


In a specific implementation, the incline support members 106a-b can slide, or otherwise move, through channels 112a-b and/or the channels 112a-b in order to provide an incline position or flat position for the adjustable incline support frame 104. In some embodiments, a user can use predetermined incline settings (e.g., as set on the frame 124) to set an incline setting. In some embodiments, a user can dynamically set an incline setting that is not labeled on the incline setting frame 124. For example, the incline support members 106a-b can be positioned (or, locked) at any point along the channels to dynamically set a user-specified incline setting. For example, the incline support members 106a-b can include a first portion of an incline locking mechanism that can be mated without a second portion of an incline locking mechanism in a respective channel(s) 112 and/or 122 (e.g., at the predetermined settings and/or along any other portion of the channel(s) 112 and/or 122.



FIG. 1C depict example incline settings 125a-c of an incline setting frame 124 of an incline adjustment mechanism 120 of a collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100. In the example of FIG. 1C, the incline settings include a 30-degree incline setting 124, a 45-degree incline setting 124b, and a 60-degree incline setting 124c. Of course, it will be appreciated that these are shown as examples, and that other settings (e.g., predetermined settings) may also be included, and that, in some embodiments, a user can dynamically set an incline setting that is not labeled on the incline setting frame 124. For example, the incline support members 106a-b can be positioned (or, locked) at any point along the channels to dynamically set a user-specified incline setting. For example, the incline support members 106a-b can include a first portion of an incline locking mechanism that can be mated without a second portion of an incline locking mechanism in a respective channel(s) 112 and/or 122 (e.g., at the predetermined settings and/or along any other portion of the channel(s) 112 and/or 122.



FIG. 1D depicts an example of a collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 in an example expanded flat position. As shown, the adjustable incline support frame 104 appears flat and appears to be single structure that is indistinct from a typical flat bench, as opposed to an incline bench. In a specific implementation, the adjustable incline support frame 104 can also have similar (e.g., within several inches in one or more dimensions) dimensions as the fixed bench frame 102. Also, as shown, and discussed elsewhere herein, there is no gap between first portion 105a of the adjustable incline support frame 104 and the second potion 105b of the adjustable incline support frame 104, thus retaining the single or continuous or contiguous structure and/or appearance.



FIG. 1E depicts an example of a collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 in an example collapsed flat position. As shown, the folding legs 108 and 110 are folded underneath the fixed bench frame 102 and the adjustable incline support frame 104, to provide a compact structure without any unnecessary gaps (e.g., between first portion 105a of the adjustable incline support frame 104 and the second potion 105b of the adjustable incline support frame 104). While in this collapsed flat position, the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 can be more easily moved and stored than traditional inline benches.



FIG. 1F depicts an example folding mechanism 128 of a collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100 in an example collapsed flat position. In the example of FIG. 1F, the folding mechanism 128 includes a folding lock mechanism 130 and a folding support member 132 affixed to the folding legs 108a-b (or folding legs 110a-b if the folding mechanism 128 is located on the opposite end of the collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench 100). It will be appreciated that the other pair of folding legs 110a-b can also include a similar folding mechanism 128. In a specific implementation, the folding lock mechanism 130 is positioned such that the folding legs 108a-b are unlocked and can be moved to an expanded position. For example, the folding mechanism 132 allows the folding legs 108a-b to be folded outward together and then locked in place by the sliding the folding lock mechanism 130 to a locked position, thereby locking the expanded position (e.g., as shown in FIG. 1G).



FIG. 2 is a flowchart 200 of an example of a method of expanding, adjusting, and collapsing a collapsible and adjustable incline exercise bench. In this and other flowcharts and/or sequence diagrams, the flowchart illustrates by way of example a sequence of modules.

FIG. 3A depicts an example of an unpacked portable weight storage container 100. As shown, the portable weight storage container 300 includes a container housing 302 and a tray 304 configured to store weight plates 306-308.


In a specific implementation, the tray 304 is configured to store four weight plates (e.g., barbell weight plates, dumbbell weight plates), although other implementations include weights tray configured to hold a larger or smaller number of such weight plates. As shown, the weight tray 304 includes recessed and curved slots 310a-d that are each configured to receive and store a corresponding weight plate 306. The curvature of the recessed and curved slots 310 allows weight plates 306-308 to be easily inserted and removed (e.g., as shown in FIG. 6). For example, rather than having to insert a weight plate 306 in a very specific location (e.g., on a peg of stand 4-ft off the ground), a user can merely place a weight plate 306 or 308 on any part of a slot 310 and the weight plate will automatically fall into place. Similarly, in order to remove a weight plate 306 or 308 from the tray 304, the user can roll the plate off the tray 304 using the recessed curvature of the slot 310. Accordingly, the user is required to exert less effort to insert and remove weight plates than on traditional weight stands. A user may secure the weight plates 306 and 308 by placing the container housing 302 over the weight plates 306 and the weight tray 304 (e.g., as shown in FIG. 3B).


In a specific implementation, the curvature of the recessed and curved slots 310 can also allow different weights (e.g., 25-lb and 45-lb) to be stored in the tray 304. In a specific implementation, the curvature of the recessed and curved slots 310 is the same for each of the slots 310, and that curvature allows different weights to be stored in the tray 304.


As discussed above, the tray 304 can have various configurations. For example, a single tray 400 configured to store two weight plates 402 is shown in FIG. 4. In another example, a double tray 500 configured to store four weight plates is shown in FIG. 5, as well as in FIG. 3A.


Throughout this specification, plural instances may implement components, operations, or structures described as a single instance.
