Abstract

1,118,690. Exercising device, rowing machine, auto masseur. W. ILLINGWORTH. 10 March. 1967, No. 11266/67. Headings ASR and A6M. In an exercising device which comprises parallel rails 1 with a small carriage 6, running to and fro along the rails, and capable of supporting the human body in a sitting or lying position, the carriage is equipped with springs 8 against which it can be pushed along the rails and which return it to the original position when the push ceases; with three pairs of wheels 3, 4 and 5 the axles of which are not in line so that at any one time only four wheels are in contact with the rails and a rocking motion can be imparted to the carriage; and with a fabric band 9 fastened loosely across by cords 10 to points 11 and 12 diametrically offset from the centre of each of the pair of wheels 4. There may also be fastened to an end 2 of the device springs 7 having hand-grips. The person using the machine lays or sits on the carriage 6 with the band 9 across the body or legs. Pushing with the feet causes the carriage to move along the rails, and the eccentric fastening of band 9 causes it to apply a massaging action to the body of the user.
