Abstract: A storable exercise apparatus for home use. The apparatus includes an upright tower, a base structure, a bench frame, and a bench attached to the bench frame. A set of flexible pull lines coupled to a resilient spring system are carried within the tower structure. The user exercises by pulling the pull lines against the bias of the spring system. The grips for the pull lines are mounted at the top of the tower and generate significant tipping force on the tower when the apparatus is in use. To prevent tipping, the bench frame has pivotal and load-transmitting connections with the tower structure; the tower is stabilized by the weight of the user on the bench. The bench may be placed in either a raised or lowered position, and can be stored by collapsing and pivoting it so that it abuts the tower vertically.

Abstract: An integrated exercise device including an arm system and a leg system, wherein the arm system has rotors that can be oriented in any of three mutually perpendicular planes. The "arm system" can be used for exercising the legs as well as the arms. The leg system includes left and right wings that pivot vertically and are weighted for exercising the upper leg. The lower leg is exercised by spring-loaded sliding shafts that extend from the wings. A calf system includes spring arrangements for resisting an alternating motion of the toe and heel, and further for resisting a pumping motion of the foot.

Abstract: A portable small game holder for dressing game in the field having two flat rectangular plate arms joined by a hinge, with the outer ends of the arms containing an inwardly extending U-shaped slot into which the legs of the animal are fitted. The holder is hung on a tree limb or any other suitable support by means of a hook, the opposite end of which serves as the hingepin. When fully opened, the arms engage each other immediately below the axis of the hingepin before the arms reach a horizontal position.
