Patent number: 7837597Abstract: An exercise machine including a weight measurement system which provides a signal representative of a user's weight. An embodiment of the weight measurement system includes at least one load cell outputting a signal used by a microprocessor to determine an accurate value of the users weight. An embodiment of the weight measurement system includes a plurality of load cells using a Wheatstone bridge configuration to output a signal representative of a user's weight regardless of whether the weight is evenly distributed across each load cell. A calibration process calibrates the load cells for each exercise machine.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2008Date of Patent: November 23, 2010Assignee: Unisen, Inc.Inventors: Javier J. Reyes, Kevin P. Corbalis, Victor Torres Cornejo, Felipe J. Marin, Gregory A. Wallace

Patent number: 7670266Abstract: An elliptical machine has a frame and an operating linkage between the frame and foot supports. Each side of the operating linkage comprises five links that are connected with five pin joints. A foot support is connected to each side of the operating linkage with each of the five pin joints being positioned forward of the foot support.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2005Date of Patent: March 2, 2010Assignee: Unisen, Inc.Inventors: Victor Torres Cornejo, Mark William Chiles, James Dey, Felipe J.

Patent number: 7666122Abstract: An elliptical exercise machine features a pair of translating members to which a pair of foot members is axially secured. The foot members each pivots with respect to the associated translating member. The generated motion allows a user to lock a knee before beginning downward movement and allows a user to bend the same knee before beginning forward movement such that the motion is more natural for the user.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2006Date of Patent: February 23, 2010Assignee: Unisen, Inc.Inventors: Mark William Chiles, Felipe J. Marin, James Dey, Victor Torres Cornejo, Kevin Patrick Corbalis

Patent number: 7618345Abstract: An exercise machine has a universal holder that is adapted to facilitate communication between the machine and a variety of portable electronic device configurations. The universal holder can be formed of a material that is generally transparent to infrared signals, but that is generally optically opaque.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2003Date of Patent: November 17, 2009Assignee: Unisen, Inc.Inventors: Kevin P. Corbalis, Javier J. Reyes, Felipe J. Marin, Victor Torres Cornejo, Gregory Allen Wallace, Charles Joseph Heiden

Publication number: 20090247371Abstract: An exercise machine has a frame and an operating linkage. The operating linkage includes any of a number of mechanisms that can adjust a foot trace generated by the linkage. In one configuration, the foot trace can be adjusted between at least a generally vertical trace and a generally horizontal trace.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 8, 2009Publication date: October 1, 2009Applicant: Unisen, Inc., dba Star TracInventors: James B. Dey, Victor Torres Cornejo, Mark William Chiles, Felipe J. Marin, Kevin Patrick Corbalis

Patent number: 7544154Abstract: A guard assembly for exercise bikes has a master sprocket guard and a slave sprocket guard that are separate from each other and that are positioned between a master sprocket and a slave sprocket. A flexible transmitter such as a belt or chain extends through a portion of the master sprocket guard and the slave sprocket guard but does not make more than incidental contact with the guards.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2004Date of Patent: June 9, 2009Assignee: Unisen, Inc.Inventors: Kevin P. Corbalis, Raymond Lim, Victor Torres Cornejo
