Water-resistance rowing machine
View Patent ↗A water-resistance rowing machine has a frame body, a water-resistance unit, at least one blade wheel, a pulling strap, and a seat. The frame body has an elongated beam and a pulley rotatably mounted on the frame body. The water-resistance unit has a water tank extending along the elongated beam, a rotating shaft disposed in the water tank and extending along and being parallel to the elongated beam, and a strap wheel assembly connected with the rotating shaft to drive the rotating shaft to spin. The at least one blade wheel is mounted on and rotated with the rotating shaft. The pulling strap is wrapped around the pulley and has an end connected with the strap wheel assembly and a handle formed on another end of the pulling strap. The seat is mounted on the elongated beam.
1. A water-resistance rowing machine comprising:
a frame body having
an elongated beam; and
a pulley rotatably connected with the frame body;
a water-resistance unit having
a water tank being elongated and extending along the elongated beam;
a rotating shaft disposed in the water tank and extending along and being parallel to the elongated beam; and
a strap wheel assembly connected with the rotating shaft to drive the rotating shaft to spin;
at least one blade wheel, each of the at least one blade wheel having
a hub fixed on and surrounding the rotating shaft to rotate with the rotating shaft; and
multiple blades arranged around the hub;
a pulling strap wrapped around the pulley and having two ends, one of the two ends of the pulling strap connected with the strap wheel assembly and the other one of the two ends of the pulling strap having a handle; and
a seat mounted on a top of the elongated beam.
2. The water-resistance rowing machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the hub of each of the at least one blade wheel has two opposite ends; and
each of the blades of each of the at least one blade wheel has
a blade root located near the hub of the at least one blade wheel and curvedly extending from one of the two opposite ends to the other one of the two opposite ends of the hub; and
a blade tip located away from the hub of the at least one blade wheel.
3. The water-resistance rowing machine as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the water tank has two bearings surrounding the rotating shaft and arranged near the two opposite ends of the rotating shaft, respectively.
4. The water-resistance rowing machine as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the water-resistance unit is mounted on the elongated beam.
