20110300996 | TRAINING APPARATUS IMITATING CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING - The present invention relates to an apparatus for exercising the human body comprising a stiff frame accommodating at least two guide tracks and at least one carriage in each guide track, at least one resistance unit, preferably attached to the frame, and for each carriage: a substantially inelastic cord drive system connecting said carriage with said at least one resistance unit, and an elastic cord drive system connecting the substantially inelastic cord drive system with the frame. Specific use of the apparatus according to the invention imitates the pattern of movements in cross-country skiing. | 12-08-2011 |
20120277068 | ERGOMETER FOR SKI TRAINING - A ski-simulation assembly includes a vertical member with a first portion coupled to a base and a second portion extending upwardly from the base, a first cable portion slidably engaged with the vertical member at the second portion of the vertical member, a second cable portion slidably engaged with the vertical member at the second portion of the vertical member, and a resistance-producing assembly physically coupled to the first cable portion and the second cable portion, where the resistance-producing assembly operable to apply a selective resistance to the first cable portion independent of movement of the second cable portion and apply a selective resistance to the second cable portion independent of movement of the first cable portion. | 11-01-2012 |
20130045841 | Skiing simulating exercise machine - A skiing simulating exercise machine includes a pair of handles attached to a base support for supporting an upper portion of a user, a cushioning member disposed on the base support, and a platform mounted on the cushioning member for supporting the user thereon and for simulating a skiing operation, the cushioning member includes a chamber for forming a tubular element and for increasing a resilience of the cushioning member, the cushioning member includes an outer peripheral recess for increasing a resilience of the cushioning member and for allowing the cushioning member to be suitably deformed or twisted or squeezed or depressed or compressed by the user. | 02-21-2013 |
20130095982 | Skiing simulating exercise machine - A skiing simulating exercise machine includes a supporting base for supporting a user, a pair of retractable couplers attached to the supporting base, and a pair of handle devices coupled to the retractable couplers for being grasped by the user and for simulating a skiing operation. The supporting base includes a beam for attaching the retractable couplers, the retractable couplers each include a rod slidably engaged in a housing, and a spring biasing member coupled between the rod and the housing for retracting the rod into the housing. The retractable couplers each include a wheel attached to the rod for allowing the rod to be smoothly moved into and out of the housing. | 04-18-2013 |
20130102442 | TREADMILL WITH LATERAL SHIFT GAIN EFFECT - A treadmill is provided which allows a lateral shift rack to be set over the pedestal of the main framework, and the lateral shift rack is provided with a treading mechanism. The lateral shift rack is driven to yield reciprocating lateral shift through circumferential movement of the crank linking frame when two pedals of the treading mechanism are treaded to shift vertically. When the treadmill is treaded, lateral shift will occur simultaneously. Based on the driving compensation mechanism, when the left and right pedals are treaded, the end point could be further shifted to a preset distance, so as to compensate the treading path of two pedals, and improve the operational flexibility, the fitness effect and value of the treadmill. | 04-25-2013 |
20140243162 | SKI SIMULATOR OR SNOWBOARD SIMULATOR, SET FOR GAMES OR FOR TRAINING COMPRISING THE SIMULATOR AND A METHOD OF TRAINING WITH ITS USAGE - The ski or snowboard simulator composed of a base, on which there is placed a trolley travelling parallelly along the longer sides of the base with the sockets for feet of training person that are able to rotate around the longitudinal axis, characterized in that there is connected the rail ( | 08-28-2014 |
20150119204 | Ski Exersize Apparatus - A foot pad for a ski exercise apparatus has a heel retainer plate across a width of the foot pad proximate one end of a length of the foot pad, the heel retainer plate spaced above a floor level of the foot pad, and a toe stop spanning the width of the foot pad and adjustable along a portion of the length of the foot pad at a forward end of the foot pad opposite the heel retainer plate. A skier, wearing a ski boot, is enabled to step into the foot pad, engage a portion of the sole at the heel of the ski boot under the heel retainer plate, constraining the heel of the ski boot vertically, and to lower a toe of the ski boot to lie behind the toe stop, constraining the toe portion horizontally not vertically. The foot pad is provided with ski exercising apparatus. | 04-30-2015 |
