Exercise machine with a vertically pivotable arm
An exercise machine is disclosed. The exercise machine comprises a motor, an actuator, a vertically pivotable arm, and a cable. A position of the vertically pivotable arm is able to be locked at least in part by using a component including one or more teeth. The vertically pivotable arm includes a release component. The cable is coupled between the actuator and the motor through the vertically pivotable arm. The motor facilitates strength training at least in part by generating resistance such that a force on the actuator corresponds to a specified weight.
1. An exercise machine including:
a motor;
an actuator;
a vertically pivotable arm, wherein a position of the vertically pivotable arm is able to be locked at least in part by using a component including one or more teeth, wherein the vertically pivotable arm includes a release component, wherein the release component includes a lever, wherein in the event that the lever is pulled, the lever causes a spring to release a compression of the spring allowing a female locking mechanism to move and disengage the female locking mechanism from the one or more teeth, wherein in the event that the female locking mechanism disengages from the one or more teeth, the female locking mechanism moves away from the component including the one or more teeth, and wherein in the event that the female locking mechanism engages with the one or more teeth, the female locking mechanism moves towards the component including the one or more teeth; and
a cable coupled between the actuator and the motor through the vertically pivotable arm, wherein the motor facilitates strength training at least in part by generating resistance such that a force on the actuator corresponds to a specified weight.
2. The exercise machine of claim 1 , further comprising a motor controller coupled to the motor.
3. The exercise machine of claim 2 , further comprising a filter coupled to the motor controller, configured to provide an input to the motor controller to adjust torque on the motor.
4. The exercise machine of claim 3 , wherein the filter comprises a weight stack filter, at least in part mirroring a behavior of a weight machine with a weight stack to the actuator.
5. The exercise machine of claim 1 , further comprising a set of sensors.
6. The exercise machine of claim 5 , wherein the set of sensors comprise at least one of an optical sensor or a magnet sensor.
7. The exercise machine of claim 1 , wherein the one or more teeth have a trapezoidal shape.
8. The exercise machine of claim 1 , further comprising a sensor configured to measure a force applied to the actuator by a user, and wherein a resistance generated by the motor is based at least in part on the force applied by the user.
9. The exercise machine of claim 1 , wherein a resistance generated by the motor is continuously adjusted by the motor.
10. The exercise machine of claim 1 , wherein a weight spotter service is provided to the actuator.
11. The exercise machine of claim 1 , wherein the exercise machine is capable of being wall mounted.
12. The exercise machine of claim 1 , wherein the exercise machine is capable of being floor mounted.
13. The exercise machine of claim 1 , wherein the exercise machine makes adjustments based on a performance of a user.
14. The exercise machine of claim 1 , wherein the actuator comprises a handle.
15. The exercise machine of claim 1 , wherein the motor is capable of resisting torque applied to the motor when a force is pulled on a cable positioned by the vertically pivotable arm.
16. The exercise machine of claim 1 further including a frame, wherein the motor is included in the frame, wherein the vertically pivotable arm is located on a side of the frame, wherein the exercise machine is capable of being wall mounted at least in part by attaching the frame to a wall bracket that is mounted to a wall, and wherein the vertically pivotable arm pivots relative to the frame attached to the wall bracket.
