Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
99 words
A body stimulating mechanical jogger wherein the improvement comprises: (a)--a housing and (b)--mounted therein an electric motor drive, cam wheels, driven by said electric motor drive through a (c)--drive belt connected to a driven wheel, mounted on a shaft, on which shaft said cam wheels are rigidly mounted and (d)--said cam wheels in contact with foot treadles to actuate said foot treadles in a reciprocating motion, and (e)--switch control means to actuate said electric motor drive, (f)--and handle bar frame mounted on said housing and (g)--said switch control means mounted on said handle bar frame of said mechanical jogger.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
99 words
A body stimulating mechanical jogger wherein the improvement comprises: (a)--a housing and (b)--mounted therein an electric motor drive, cam wheels, driven by said electric motor drive through a (c)--drive belt connected to a driven wheel, mounted on a shaft, on which shaft said cam wheels are rigidly mounted and (d)--said cam wheels in contact with foot treadles to actuate said foot treadles in a reciprocating motion, and (e)--switch control means to actuate said electric motor drive, (f)--and handle bar frame mounted on said housing and (g)--said switch control means mounted on said handle bar frame of said mechanical jogger.
