Exercise device with vibration capabilities

摘要

An exercise device includes a frame having a cable and pulley system connected thereto. The cable and pulley system includes at least one pulley and at least one cable strand. The at least one cable strand has a handle connected thereto for use in performing exercises. One or more vibration assemblies are connected to the at least one pulley in order to vibrate the at least one cable strand. The vibrations from the vibration assemblies are transferred to a user during the performance of exercise to provide various physiological benefits to the user.

1. An exercise device, comprising:
a frame; a cable and pulley system linked to the frame, the cable and pulley system comprising:
at least one pulley, the at least one pulley including:
a pulley housing; anda wheel rotatably attached to the pulley housing;at least one cable strand where the at least one cable strand is movable around the wheel of at least one pulley in the performance of an exercise; and one or more vibration assemblies, at least one vibration assembly of the one or more vibrations assemblies being connected directly to the pulley housing of the at least one pulley, wherein the at least one vibration assembly selectively creates vibrations to cause the at least one cable strand to vibrate; wherein at least one of the one or more vibration assemblies comprises a motor, a shaft rotatable by the motor about an axis of rotation, and one or more cams mounted on the shaft, each of the one or more cams being selectively rotatable to periodically engage the at least one cable strand.
