20240123276
The present invention relates to a multifunctional exercise equipment, and more particularly, to a multifunctional exercise equipment designed to allow a user to select and do various exercises, such as Pilates, fitness, and aerobic exercise, at low cost without the need for a large space at home or in the office.
In recent years, as one of the ways to maintain health with the spread of the 5-day work week, many people go to gyms and do weight training, or women do Pilates exercises.
In addition, people frequently do aerobic exercise, such as swimming, walking, jogging, running, or stationary bicycle, in which sufficient oxygen is consumed continuously for a long time.
However, most of the conventional exercise equipment is designed to intensively strengthen only one muscle of the body. Therefore, in order to strengthen various muscles of the body, it is necessary to secure a large number of exercise equipment.
There is a disadvantage in that it takes a lot of money to secure a variety of exercise equipment and a large space is required to store a lot of exercise equipment.
In other words, a treadmill is a device that is installed indoors and mainly used for running and walking, and has a disadvantage of being expensive and having many breakdowns. Cost burden is incurred when using gym facilities. In addition to the travel time required, a user may feel discomfort due to the use by an unspecified number of people.
In addition, since the exercise equipment installed in the outdoor sports facility is only for a single exercise, there are many inconveniences in doing multiple exercises in combination. In addition, in order to separately install exercise equipment suitable for each type, there is a problem in that it takes a lot of space and installation costs.
Furthermore, as COVID-19, which has been sweeping the world in recent years, has made it difficult to use gyms and Pilates facilities, more time is spent at home, and thus, interest in exercise is increasing. However, there is no multifunctional exercise equipment on the market that can allow users to do Pilates, weights, and aerobic exercise at once.
Accordingly, there is an urgent need to develop multifunctional exercise equipment that can secure space and reduce installation costs while operating various functions in one device.
The present invention has been made in view of the problems of the prior art and needs, an object of the present invention is to provide a multifunctional exercise equipment that reduces costs for securing a variety of exercise equipment and does not require space for installing the exercise equipment.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a multifunctional exercise equipment that can easily combine Pilates, fitness, and aerobic exercise at home or in the office and can allow a user to do personal exercise without requiring travel time.
Further another object of the present invention is to provide a multifunctional exercise equipment that can allow a user to do Pilates, weights, and aerobic exercise at home even if it is difficult to use gyms or Pilates facilities due to the spread of infectious diseases.
In order to achieve the objects of the present invention,
In the present invention, wheels (224a) are rotatably connected to both sides of an upper end of the small base plate (224) of the first wing part (200), and wheels (324a) are rotatably connected to both sides of an upper end of the small base plate (324) of the second wing part (300).
A multifunctional exercise equipment of the present invention as described above has the following effects.
First, it is possible for a user to do various types of Pilates, weight training, and aerobic training after storing the multifunctional exercise equipment having a compact size under a desk or in a corner of a veranda and moving the multifunctional exercise equipment to a desired exercise place through wheels 224a and 334a. Therefore, it is possible to reduce costs for securing a variety of exercise equipment and it is unnecessary to secure space for installing the exercise equipment.
Second, it is possible for a user to do a combination of Pilates, fitness, and aerobic exercise easily at home or in the office without using gym facilities, and it is possible for a user to do individual exercise without travel time.
Third, even if it is difficult for a user to use gyms or Pilates facilities due to the spread of infectious diseases, there is an advantage of being able to do Pilates, weights, and aerobic exercise at home.

Referring to
The body part 100 mainly supports a user's upper body. Referring to
At this time, the material of the body 110 is not particularly limited, but a wood material is preferable in consideration of external aesthetics or luxury, and aluminum or synthetic resin is also possible.
Referring to
In addition, first insertion holes 116 having a predetermined diameter are formed on both left and right sides of the top surface of the body 110 such that handle-combined push-up bars 500 are detachably attached thereto. Second insertion holes 118 are formed to face each other with the through hole 114 therebetween, such that straight handles 600 are detachably attached thereto.
In the handle-combined push-up bar 500, a protruding rod (not shown) of a predetermined length, which can be freely inserted into and removed from the first insertion hole 116, is fixedly attached to a bottom surface of a base plate 510 having a ‘⊏’-shaped cross-section. Both end portions of the handle 512 having a rod shape are screwed between the upper ends of the base plate 510. The handle-combined push-up bar 500 is rotatable at an angle convenient for the user to use while riding on the top surface of the body 110 in a state of being inserted into the first insertion hole 116 through the protruding bar.
In the straight handle 600, a protruding rod (not shown) of a predetermined length, which is inserted into and removed from the second insertion hole 118, is fixedly attached to a lower portion of a handle 610 having a rod shape.
In addition, referring to
In addition, a plurality of first holders 130 having an approximately ‘L’-shaped cross-section are coupled to the bottom surface of the body 110 so as to be adjacent to the processing part 112. In the first holder 130, semicircular small concave holes 136 are formed on the left and right sides with a ‘U’-shaped large concave hole 134 therebetween.
In addition, since a plurality of through-holes 120a having a predetermined diameter are formed at equal intervals in the longitudinal direction of the pedestal 120, the straight handle 600 is selectively attached to or detached from the through-hole 120a.
In addition, one end portion of an elastic member 140 is inserted into the small concave hole 136, and the other end portion of the elastic member 140 is coupled through another small concave hole 136 to a second holder 230 to be described below. An engaging member 150 having a cap shape prevents the elastic member 140 from being released from the small concave hole 136.
At this time, in the present invention, although a flexible tubing band 420 is provided as the elastic member 140, it is not necessarily limited thereto, and a rubber band or a spring is also possible.
In addition, a length-variable member 160 is installed on the bottom surface of the body 110 in the longitudinal direction with the elastic member 140 therebetween. In the length-variable member, a medium pipe 164 of a smaller diameter is housed in a large pipe 162 of a predetermined diameter. A small pipe 166 having a smaller diameter is housed in the medium pipe 164.
At this time, referring to
In addition, a plurality of screws (not shown) are screwed to a bottom surface of a second support member 180 on the top surface of the body 110 in a state where the second support member 180 having the same shape as the first support member 170 surrounds the other side of the outer circumferential surface of the large pipe 162.
In addition, since a screw 172 passes through the first support member 170 and is coupled to the large pipe 162 at a predetermined depth, the large pipe 162 is prevented from being separated from the first support member 170.
Referring to
In addition, the wheels 224a are rotatably connected to both sides of the upper end of the small base plate 224.
Also, referring to
In addition, after the other end portion of the elastic member 140 is inserted into the small concave hole 236, separation from the small concave hole 236 is prevented by the engaging member 150. One end portion of the large pipe 162 is supported across the large concave hole 134 of the first holder 130 and the large concave hole 234 of the second holder 230.
In addition, a plurality of screws (not shown) are screwed to a bottom surface of a third support member 240 on the top surface of the body 210 in a state where the third support member 240 having the same shape as the first support member 170 surrounds the other side of the outer circumferential surface of the small pipe 166.
In addition, since a screw 244 passes through the third support member 240 and is coupled to the small pipe 166 at a predetermined depth, the lifting phenomenon is prevented in the extending or retracting process of the small pipe 166.
Referring to
In addition, the wheels 324a are rotatably connected to both sides of the upper end of the small base plate 324.
In addition, referring to
In addition, after the other end portion of the elastic member 140 is inserted into the small concave hole 336, separation from the small concave hole 336 is prevented by the engaging member 150. One end portion of the large pipe 162 is supported across the large concave hole 134 of the first holder 130 and the large concave hole 334 of the second holder 330.
In addition, a plurality of screws (not shown) are screwed to a bottom surface of a fourth support member 340 on the top surface of the body 310 in a state where the fourth support member 340 having the same shape as the first support member 170 surrounds the other side of the outer circumferential surface of the small pipe 166.
In addition, since a screw 344 passes through the fourth support member 340 and is coupled to the small pipe 166 at a predetermined depth, the lifting phenomenon is prevented in the extending or retracting process of the small pipe 166.
Hereinafter, the operation of the present invention having the above configuration will be described.
First, the multifunctional exercise equipment stored under the desk or in the corner of the veranda is moved to a desired location. That is, the user's hand is put in the through-hole and moves the multifunctional exercise equipment to a desired exercise place through the wheels 224a and 334a of the multifunctional exercise equipment.
Thereafter, the end portion of the tubing band 420 is fitted to the processing part 114 of the body 110, the handle-combined push-up bar 500 is connected to the first insertion hole 116 of the body 110, and the straight handle 600 is connected to the second insertion hole 118.
In addition, if the right foot is inserted into the holder 400 of the tubing band ass′y 400 and then the right foot is pulled and stretched around the knee, the length of the tubing band 420 is decreased or increased in conjunction with this. This elasticity is useful for strengthening the muscles of the lower body and stabilizing the body.
Thereafter, if the user repeats the action of pulling or pushing his or her two feet forward, the length of the tubing band 420 is decreased or increased in conjunction with this, and thus, the first wing part 200 and the second wing part 300 move toward or away from the body part 100. In this manner, the elasticity of the tubing band 420 is useful for holding the center of the body through core exercise.
In the above process, according to the present invention, it is possible for a user to do various types of Pilates, weight training, and aerobic training after storing the multifunctional exercise equipment having a compact size under a desk or in a corner of a veranda and moving the multifunctional exercise equipment to a desired exercise place through the wheels 224a and 334a. Therefore, it is possible to reduce costs for securing a variety of exercise equipment and it is unnecessary to secure space for installing the exercise equipment.
In addition, it is possible to do a combination of Pilates, fitness, and aerobic exercise easily at home or in the office without using gym facilities, and it is possible to do individual exercise without travel time.
In addition, even if it is difficult to use gyms or Pilates facilities due to the spread of infectious diseases, there is an advantage of being able to do Pilates, weights, and aerobic exercise at home.
As described above, the multifunctional exercise equipment according to the present invention has been described with reference to the illustrated drawings, but the present invention is not limited by the embodiments and drawings disclosed herein, and various modifications can be made by those of ordinary skill in the art within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.
