  • Patent number: 12564532
    Abstract: A shoulder stretching device can be used to stretch or strengthen targets muscles before or after surgery, after an injury, or for workouts. The device is multi-functional and adjustable. The device can include a longitudinal member, a top transverse member and forearm member operatively connected to the longitudinal member, a curved elbow member, and a bottom transverse member indirectly connected to the longitudinal member via the curved elbow member. The members can be perpendicular to the longitudinal member. The top transverse and forearm members can be adjusted along a length and can rotate about the longitudinal member. Handgrips can be located at ends of the top and bottom transverse members. A user can adjust the location and angles of the members in relation to each other and placement of the handgrips for adjustability and to use the device in a multi-functional way.

  • Publication number: 20250332473
    Abstract: A muscle stretching and strengthening device can include a height-adjustable vertical member, a handlebar connected to a first end of the vertical member, a base, and a connector that indirectly connects a second end of the vertical member to the base. The connector includes a back range of motion limiter and a front range of motion limiter that can be defined by a plurality of matching pairs of holes that are in spatial alignment with each other. Pins can be inserted through any of the matching pairs of holes that prevent the vertical member and the handlebar from arcing forwards and backwards beyond the pins. A user can stretch and strengthen muscles in a seated position by placing their feet on the base, grasping the handlebar and leaning forward and then back; or by using the device to transition from a seated to standing position and back.

The device is multi-functional and adjustable. The device can include a longitudinal member, a top handgrip and forearm member operatively connected to the longitudinal member, a curved elbow member, and a bottom transverse member indirectly connected to the longitudinal member via the curved elbow member. A lateral adjuster can be fan-shaped and include a plurality of locking mechanism receivers that allow the longitudinal member to be angled closer to or farther away from the bottom transverse member. The handgrip and forearm members can be adjusted along a length and can rotate about the longitudinal member. A user can adjust the location and angles of the members in relation to each other and placement of the handgrip for adjustability and to use the device in a multi-functional way.
