  • Publication number: 20080194387
    Abstract: A stepping exerciser includes a base having a pair of inclined pivot axles, a pair of foot pedals having one end rotatably attaching to the inclined pivot axles, to allow the foot pedals to be stepped downwardly and outwardly by a user, and a lever rotatably attached to the base and having two ends engaged beneath the foot pedals, to couple the foot pedals together, and to allow one of the foot pedals to be moved upwardly when the other foot pedal is stepped downwardly by the user. The lever includes two pads for engaging with the foot pedals. A resistive device may provide a resistive force against the foot pedals.

  • Publication number: 20080171606
    Abstract: A riding device includes one or more cranks rotatably attached to a base, and a rider support supported on a carrier and movable relative to the base for supporting a rider, and a moving device for moving the carrier and the rider support relative to the base in an elliptical and reciprocating action, the rider support may be moved in different moving strokes relative to the base and may be adjusted up and down relative to the carrier. The base includes one or more rotatable cranks and the carrier includes a curved member slidably and movably engaged with the crank for allowing the curved member of the carrier to be forced to move in the elliptical and reciprocating action by the crank.

  • Patent number: 6908091
    Abstract: A cambering vehicle includes a front column, left and a right trailing arms each having a front portion pivotally attached to either the front column or a bracket attached thereto by a pivot axle which is preferably inclined relative to the bracket or the front column. A detachable latching device may be used to detachably latch the bracket, if so provided, and thus the trailing arms to the front column at the working position. The bracket and thus the trailing arm may be rotated relative to the front column to the folding position when the detachably latching device releases the bracket relative to the front column. The cambering vehicle may also include a link connect the trailing arms independent of the front column, and a braking mechanism to inhibit forward movement of the cambering vehicle.

  • Patent number: 6908090
    Abstract: A cambering vehicle includes a front column, and a left and a right trailing arm having a front portion pivotally attached to the front column with a pivot axle and having a rear wheel and having a foot pedal to support users. The pivot axles are inclined relative to the front column, to change the moving stroke of the trailing arms. Each of the front portions of the trailing arms includes a bushing rotatably attached onto the pivot axles respectively, and the pivot axles may be secured to the front column. A link may couple the trailing arms together.

  • Patent number: 6902514
    Abstract: An exerciser includes a handle and a supporting device rotatably secured to a base, two foot pedals are rotatably secured to the support with spindles for allowing the users' feet to be rotated relative to the supporting device and for preventing the users from being hurt or twisted while rotating relative to said base with the supporting device. A device may couple the the handle to the supporting device for allowing the handle to be rotatably coupled to the supporting device. The handle may include a shank rotatably and foldably secured to a lower segment.
