Abstract

1,060,281. Exercising apparatus. P. ELIA and K. ELIA. July 29, 1964 [Aug. 14, 1963], No. 32169/63. Heading A6M. In an exercising equipment simulating rowing, gripping means are pulled towards the user against a load determined wholely or partly by the weight of the seated user. In one embodiment, Fig. 1, pulling on the hnadles 13 of a lever 6 produces a tension in a cable 8 attached to one end of a lever 4 provided with a seat 11 on the opposite end thereof. The users feet may rest on the ends 15 of a bar connected by springs 17 to a fixed part on the said lever 4. In another embodiment. Fig. 3, pulling on handles 34 tenses a cable 32 connected to a carriage 26 running on wheels 28, 30. The wheels 30 ride on a bar 22 pivoted at 21, so that backward movement of the carriage 26 when the cable 32 is tensed causes a slide shoe 29 on said carriage 26 to lift the bar 22 and the 25, against the tension of a spring 23. In another embodiment, Fig. 5, a bar 39, similar to bar 22 of Fig. 3, is lifted by a carriage 47 drawn forward by a zig-zag cable 32. In the last embodiment, Fig. 7, tensioning of a cable 32 draws the wheels 61 of a scissor like support together to raise the seat 60.
