Patent number: 11801415Abstract: An adjustable dumbbell system may include a base, two or more weights, a handle assembly, an additional weight, and selection assembly. The two or more weights may be supported by the base and grouped into a first set of weights associated with one end of the dumbbell system and a second set of weights associated with an opposing end of the dumbbell system. The handle assembly may be selectively fixedly joined to the first and second set of weights. The additional weight may be disposed distally of the handle assembly. The selection assembly may be secured to the additional weight. The selection assembly may include a selection member that may be linearly moveable between a selected position where the additional weight is operatively secured to the handle assembly and an unselected position where the additional weight is disengaged from the handle assembly.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2022Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: Nautilus, Inc.Inventors: Thomas H. Moran, Jason P. Petersen, Marcus L. Marjama, Todd D. Anderson, P J M. Bush, Bryan W. Hamilton, Edward L. Flick

Publication number: 20230030139Abstract: An adjustable weight kettlebell includes a body defining an internal cavity configured to receive one or more of a plurality of weights, and a weight selector assembly configured to selectively couple one or more of the plurality of weights to the body. The weight selector assembly may include an actuator to enable a user to select one of a plurality of available weight settings. The weight selector assembly may be locked for adjustment when the kettlebell is removed from a support surface such as a base, thereby inhibiting inadvertent detachment of the weights from the kettlebell during exercise. The weight selector assembly may automatically shift to the closest weight settings upon release of the actuator and may automatically unlock upon placement of the kettlebell on the support surface such as the base, the bottom weight if not coupled to the kettlebell, or any other suitable support surface.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2022Publication date: February 2, 2023Applicant: NAUTILUS, INC.Inventors: Edward L. Flick, Bryce C. Baker, PJ M. Bush

Publication number: 20230026251Abstract: An exercise system including a tower and a translatable and rotatable display is disclosed. The tower is a free-standing unit and includes a mast that supports the display at a sufficient height or elevation, for example above a front panel of the system's housing. A carriage assembly couples the display to the mast to enable translation of the display between two positions, and the display mount is further configured to enable rotation of the display between a portrait orientation and an landscape orientation when the display is in the second position. In some embodiments, rotation of the display is substantially inhibited by the system's housing, for example the front panel, when the display is in the first position.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2022Publication date: January 26, 2023Applicant: NAUTILUS, INC.Inventors: Jeffrey A. Tracy, Bryce C. Baker, Edana French, Ryan J. Pohl, Kevin M. Hendricks, Todd D. Anderson, Robert F. Michels, III, Marcus L. Marjama, Steven Rodden, James Li, Jeffrey A. Gettle, Edward L. Flick

Publication number: 20220219040Abstract: A stationary bike capable of leaning of tilting side to side during use is described. The stationary bike has a fixed frame portion and moving frame portion which is pivotally mounted on the fixed frame portion, at two spaced apart pivot locations, to allow the moving frame to pivot about a pivot axis defined by the two spaced apart pivot locations. The pivotal action of the bike may be resisted, such as by a damper. The tilt-enabled bike is equipped with a tilt disabling mechanism, e.g., a locking mechanism configured to selectively and operatively engage the moving and the fixed frame to disable the relative movement (i.e. the pivoting) of the moving frame.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 30, 2022Publication date: July 14, 2022Applicant: Nautilus, Inc.Inventors: Todd D. Anderson, Brian Venturella, Jeffrey A. Gettle, Edana French, Marcus Marjama, Edward L. Flick, Dan Consiglio
