Abstract

An exercise apparatus orienting foot pedals and handlebars having first and second rotating armatures for generating subtended paths of rotation, with motors to revolve the first and second rotating armatures in opposite directions and allowing the subtended paths to migrate from a first two-dimensional plane into a second two dimensional plane and back into the first two-dimensional plane.

Claims (19)

1. An exercise apparatus orienting foot pedals and handlebars, comprising

a. a first rotating armature, comprising

i. a first variable length rod slidably engaged in a first vertical groove to generate a first subtended path of rotation;

ii. a first beveled cog to drive a first rotating armature core;

b. a second rotating armature, comprising

i. a second variable length rod slidably engaged in a second vertical groove to generate a second subtended path of rotation;

ii. a second beveled cog to drive a second rotating armature core;

c. a first motor to revolve the first rotating armature in opposite directions and allowing the first subtended path to migrate from a first two-dimensional plane into a second two dimensional plane and back into the first two-dimensional plane;

d. a first rectifying armature that reverses the first subtended path of rotation about a first axis;

e. a second rectifying armature that reverses the second subtended path of rotation about a first axis;

f. a first pedal corresponding to the first rectifying armature and a second pedal corresponding to the second rectifying armature, each having a corresponding supporting pivot zone for simultaneous upward/downward incline and increasing/decreasing amplitude of a path of the first pedal and of a path of the second pedal.

2. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:

h. adjustable handlebars that rotate and revolve in opposite and out of phase motion from the first foot pedal and the second foot pedal allowing rotation and revolution of the adjustable handlebars in multiple planes.

3. The exercise apparatus of claim 2 , further comprising a control panel for setting and adjustment of a standard parameter of an elliptical machine for the exercise apparatus and a new parameter corresponding to an additional range of motion.

4. The exercise apparatus of claim 3 , further comprising display.

5. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:

g. at least one cog and at least one sprocket that maintain a horizontal tilt and parallel orientation in a first direction of the first foot pedal and the second foot pedal.

6. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first subtended path of rotation comprises a substantially flattened elliptical path.

7. The exercise apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the exercise apparatus is a standing exercise apparatus.
