Patent number: 7717828Abstract: A non-impact exercise device comprising a framework, resistance assembly, and a pivoting assembly. The pivoting assembly contains a pair of link arms pivotally coupled to a pair of foot support members. The link arms have handles for the user to grip and the foot support members have foot platforms for the user to stand upon. The foot platforms have a wheel attached to them and the wheel rests upon curved or arced ramps of the exercise device. The user exercises by putting force into the device through the handles and/or foot platforms. This causes the foot platforms to roll along the ramps while the user is standing upon the foot platforms. The user may readily vary the length and frequency of the reciprocating stride.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 2007Date of Patent: May 18, 2010Assignee: Icon IP, Inc.Inventors: Roy Simonson, William T.

Patent number: 7713180Abstract: An exercise device includes an inflatable bladder and is partially stabilized with a small amount of filler. The bladder includes a first aperture to allow the filler to be easily placed in the bladder. The bladder also includes a valve main body that allows air to be easily injected into the bladder to inflate the bladder. In an exemplary method the filler is forced into the inflatable bladder using a mixture of air and filler. The air is under pressure and assists in forcing the filler into the bladder. After a proper amount of filler is in the bladder, the bladder can be deflated for packaging and/or shipping.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2005Date of Patent: May 11, 2010Assignee: ICON IP, Inc.Inventors: Krista Marie Wickens, Jaremy T.

Patent number: 7658698Abstract: A non-impact exercise device comprising a framework, at least one ramp assembly, a pair of foot support assemblies, a foot location control assembly, and means for adjusting the maximum stride length of the foot support assemblies. The foot support assemblies may advantageously be coupled to the foot location control assembly by a flexible cable linkage. The foot support assemblies each include a foot platform for the user to stand on. The foot support assemblies are coupled to the one or more ramp assemblies of the exercise device. The user exercises by putting force into the device through the foot platforms and/or handles.

Patent number: 6623140Abstract: A flashlight having multiple light sources that may be actuated by a user. A first light source located at or near a first end of the flashlight provides a concentrated, linear beam of light from a head module that is generally parallel with the flashlight when the first light source is actuated. A reflector focuses the beam of light. A second light source in combination with a reflector located a tail module, which is at or near a second end of the flashlight, provides radial illumination with respect to the tail module when the second light source is actuated. The reflector diffuses illumination at the tail module. A switching mechanism enables a user to selectively actuate or deactuate the first and/or second light sources.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2001Date of Patent: September 23, 2003Inventors: Scott R.
