Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to an adjustable-incline climbing wall. The climbing wall includes one or more climbing panels supported by a frame and a system for adjusting the incline of the frame to provide a climbing wall of a desired incline. The incline of the climbing wall may be adjusted by activating an actuator, which extends the upper portion of the frame a distance from a support wall, tilting the climbing wall to a desired incline. When the climbing wall is substantially vertically oriented, the system for adjusting the incline of the climbing wall may extend only a small distance from the support wall so that the adjustable-incline climbing wall has a relatively small footprint. In some embodiments, the climbing wall may also include one or more fitness accessories that can be brought to an optimal height for a particular user through adjustment of the climbing wall incline.

Abstract: An eccentric column structure of a waist twisting exercise machine is provided which includes a base, a cushion, and an eccentric column assembled between the base and the cushion. The cushion is supported above the base through the eccentric column, so that the seat height of the cushion is slightly higher than the height of knees of an average adult, thereby enabling riding in a relatively comfortable and ergonomic posture, and enabling exercising movements of rotating and waist twisting by using two feet landing on the ground as points of force application. In addition, the eccentric column is integrally formed by a bending processing of a metal pipe column, which not only avoids the formation of seams during assembly or structural weaknesses derived from welding, but also greatly enhances the overall strength of the structure, thereby being conducive to prolonging the service life and safety of the exercise machine.
