Abstract

Abstract A multiple exerciser device having two spaced, freely rotatable platforms upon which twisting of the body can be performed by positioning the feet on the platforms, a spring-biased jumping and running exerciser board positioned between two parallel hand gripping bars, all operatively connected to a step-up base used in the performance of twisting and turning, jumping and running, and parallel bar exercises.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 20
Claim 1
Independent Claim 127 words
A multiple exerciser device comprising: a raised supporting base having a horizontal top surface; a spring biased running and jumping board positioned on said top surface, said running and jumping board hinged at one side to said base; two removable rotatable exercising platforms having flat surfaces operatively connected to the top of said device and positioned above said running and jumping board, each of said platforms having a centrally positioned, vertically downward extending turning shaft; at least two vertically extending turning shafts receiving socket means, each of said socket means being adapted to removably receive one of said turning shafts, each of said turning shafts when positioned in one of said socket means providing a horizontally positioned flat platform surface rotatable over said running and jumping boards.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 127 words
A multiple exerciser device comprising: a raised supporting base having a horizontal top surface; a spring biased running and jumping board positioned on said top surface, said running and jumping board hinged at one side to said base; two removable rotatable exercising platforms having flat surfaces operatively connected to the top of said device and positioned above said running and jumping board, each of said platforms having a centrally positioned, vertically downward extending turning shaft; at least two vertically extending turning shafts receiving socket means, each of said socket means being adapted to removably receive one of said turning shafts, each of said turning shafts when positioned in one of said socket means providing a horizontally positioned flat platform surface rotatable over said running and jumping boards.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 56 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 1, in which said device has two removable platforms, said turning shaft of each platform adapted to be rotatably positioned in one of said receiving socket means, said receiving socket means being positioned in the top surface of said base on each side of said hinged running and jumping board.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 37 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 2, in which said socket means has a turnable thrust surface in each opening against which the end of said turning shaft bears and turns during rotational movement of said platform.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 29 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 2, in which said hinged running and jumping board is operatively positioned in a wide groove in the top surface of said base.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 70 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 1, in which three turning shaft receiving socket means are centrally positioned and in line parallel with the hinged side of said running and jumping board, one of said socket means being positioned substantially in the center of the jumping and running board and the end two socket means being positioned at a distance from each other greater than a diameter of said platforms.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 38 words
The multiple exerciser of claim 5, in which each of said platforms is formed from two circular rotating discs having said turning shaft attached to a bottom disc with said top disc rotatably attached to said bottom disc.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 23 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 6, in which a bearing surface means is positioned between each of said discs forming said platform.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 50 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 7, in which said bearing surface means is a ring of ball bearings positioned in a raceway formed by the adjacent surface of said discs rotatable with respect to each other on said ball bearings when a turning force is applied on said platform.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 19 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 5, in which the bottom portion of said base has a pipe-supported construction.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 40 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 1, in which said base is a box-like structure having supporting strut members in the sides thereof to provide additional support to accommodate the weight of persons jumping up and down on said base.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 33 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 1, in which a parallel pair of hand gripping support bars are attached to said base, with said running and jumping board and said platform positioned therebetween.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 19 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 11, in which said hand gripping support bars have means for height adjustment.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 34 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 11, in which said hand gripping support bars are of a telescoping inverted U-shape with legs of the U-shaped telescoping pipe member having detent means for height adjustment.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim 19 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 11, in which said hand gripping bars are detachable from said supporting base.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim 36 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 1, in which a sound projection means is operatively positioned in said base for providing sound communication of programmed exercising patterns, rhythms and instructions to the user of said device.
Claim 17
Dependent Claim 17 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 15, in which said sound projection means is a tape recorder.
Claim 18
Dependent Claim 19 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 1, in which a performance duration means is operatively connected to said base.
Claim 19
Dependent Claim 17 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 17, in which said performance duration means is a digital counter.
Claim 20
Dependent Claim 16 words
The multiple exerciser device of claim 17, in which the performance duration means is a timer.
