  • Patent number: 7909739
    Abstract: A pedal exercise machine with pedals and arm levers operated in conjunction with each other. A base, a front frame and a center frame are coupled to each other and a pair of pedals move upwards and downwards in alternating directions. Pedal links connect the pedals to the base, arm levers couple to the front frame, and lever link units include a first lever link coupled to the corresponding arm lever and a second lever link connecting the first lever link to the corresponding pedal. Subsidiary pedal links connect the pedals to the center frame, a resistance pulley is provided in the center frame, and a crank having crank arms is coupled to the resistance pulley. A first actuating link is coupled to each pedal link at a predetermined angle. A second actuating link is rotatably coupled at both ends to the first actuating link and the corresponding crank arm.

  • Patent number: 7618351
    Abstract: A pedal exercise machine includes an arc trajectory with a length adjustment for adjusting the lengths of pedal trajectories and arm levers, an angle adjustment for adjusting the position of the pedal trajectory, and a displacement mechanism for adjusting the pedals' angles relative to the ground. The pedal exercise machine includes a base, a front frame and a center frame, coupled together, a pair of pedals, a pair of pedal links, and a pair of subsidiary pedal links, which are coupled to the respective pedals by shafts different from shafts which the respective pedal links are coupled to the corresponding pedals. The pedal exercise machine further includes a resistance pulley, a crank shaft, and a pair of crank link units. Each crank link unit has the angle adjustment mechanism configured to adjust the angle between the corresponding pedal link and the corresponding crank link unit.
