Selectorized weight stack ejecting pin

摘要

A compact, portable weight stack selector pin for use with exercise equipment commonly known as selectorized weight equipment. This invention will allow the user to pre-select multiple resistances to be used in a controlled descending resistance sequence without the need for the trainee to dismount said equipment to reposition the selector pin or pins during the exercise.

主权项

1. A weight stack pin device, comprising:
a pin shaft having a proximal end and a distal end, the distal end being configured for insertion within a first selector slot of a first weight of a weight stack, the proximal end comprising an attachment end; a body slidably positioned on the pin shaft between a loaded position and a released position; a biasing means having a distal end in contact with the body and a proximal end connected to the attachment end, the biasing means having a compressed position and a relaxed position, wherein the loaded position of the body corresponds to the compressed position of the biasing means, and the released position of the body corresponds to the relaxed position of the biasing means; and a trigger latch coupled to the pin shaft and having a first extension that selectively contacts the body to maintain the loaded position of the body, the trigger latch further comprising a second extension that is configured to be inserted within a second selector slot of a second weight of the weight stack, wherein the trigger latch is disposed proximal to the proximal end of the biasing means, wherein upon removal of the first extension from contact with the body, the body moves to the released position as the biasing means moves to the relaxed position.
