Abstract:
A chair mounting exercising unit includes two swinging arms having a bottom end fastened to either end of a substantially U-shaped locating rod being fixed to the back of a chair by a knob controlled lock device and a slotted side extension plate in the middle at an outer side movably hung on a screw bolt at either end of a horizontal frame on the back of the chair and a top end coupled with a pulley wheel assembly, and two elastic pull ropes respectively inserted through either pulley wheel assembly and fastened to either swinging arm and an opposite end coupled with a handle.
Abstract:
A method of sonic logging in which there is established at a depth of interest in a borehole a set of peak matrices comprised of peak vectors representative of a plurality of different characteristics of sonic signals traversing an earth formation. A set of rules is established based upon borehole sonic characteristics including the utilization of past histories of slowness and coherence values of wave components of interest. The matrices are searched in accordance with the rules to identify the presence in the sonic signals of wave components of interest, such, for example, as casing, compressional, shear and Stoneley. The identified wave components are recorded as a function of depth of interest, and the aforesaid steps are repeated at each depth of interest.The characteristics sought for each component include the maximum of peak coherence, the slowness at peak coherence, the time occurrence at peak coherence, coherent energy at peak coherence, coherent value at peak energy, the slowness at peak energy, the time occurrence at peak energy, and coherent energy at peak energy.The method is applicable to both open hole and cased hole sonic logging.
Abstract:
A method of laser forward transfer is disclosed. Photon energy is directed through a photon-transparent support and absorbed by a polymer interlayer coated thereon. The energized interlayer causes the transfer of a biological material coated thereon across a gap and onto a receiving substrate.

Abstract:
An oval-tracked exercise apparatus is provided which includes a main frame having a pair of connecting arms in a hinge joint with a traverse support. The traverse support is coupled with a mechanical system in a pivotal connection with a pair of planks. A resisting rotating mechanism is attached to an opposing end of the respective plank. Besides, an adjusting assembly is provided for adjusting the height of the traverse support. The resisting rotating mechanism formed by a flywheel, a belt wheel or a resistance mechanism includes a continually bent crank and is rotatably mounted on side walls of a base of the resisting rotating mechanism. Accordingly, both handles are synchronically movable with respective planks for simulating a climbing action and an oval exercise track. Moreover, a simulation of a movement on uphill, downhill and flat surfaces can be achieved. Furthermore, a reduction of the distance between both planks is also attainable.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an electronic watch for sports apparatus in which the international standard weight and heartbeat reference data are saved. After input of personal data of the body weight and height, the microprocessor will calculate the difference between the real body weight and the corresponding standard weight. Thereafter, the built-in program decides an optimal exercise mode in accordance with the weight difference. Then, the exerciser is activated to execute the result. In addition, the age and the sex can be given in order for the microprocessor to calculate an optimal exercise heartbeat range in taking the international standard weight and heartbeat reference data and the difference between the real body weight and the corresponding standard weight into account. Thereafter, the built-in program decides an optimal exercise mode in accordance with the optimal exercise heartbeat range. Then, the exerciser is activated to execute the result.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an oval-tracked exercise apparatus for simulating hand-movement having two rocker arms and two treadle bars. The bottom end of the rocker arms and the front end of the treadle bars are joined to each other by a pivot. The rear end of the treadle bars is pivotally connected to the side of a rotary body. Both of the treadle bars are movable up and down in an offset position for simulating the movement of hands and feet in an oval track during exercise session. An adjusting mechanism is provided to adjust the angle of the connecting mechanism for simulating a walking exercise on an uphill road or on a downhill road.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an emergency switch for an exercise apparatus having a housing, a safety plug and a microswitch. The safety plug passes through an insertion slot of the housing and is inwardly inserted to the inside of the housing for an electric connection by means of the contact of the distal end of an extension part of the safety plug to a contact key of the microswitch. Meanwhile, an electric disconnection is created when the safety plug is extracted. In addition, a cut-off button with a push rod is interposed between the safety plug and the microswitch. Besides, the cut-off button projects outwardly from the housing. When the cut-off button is pressed down, the push rod makes use of its slanting guide face to separate the safety plug from the contact key of the microswitch into a disconnection state.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a cushioning unit for an oval-tracked exercise device. A connecting element has one end pivotably attached to the elongated treadle and the other end pivotably attached to the handle bar. A lateral piece parallel to the connecting element is inwardly extended from the bottom end of the handle bars while a cushioning element is mounted on the lateral piece. When the handle bar is moved to the bottommost position, the connecting element presses against the cushioning element for achieving the expected cushioning effect, thereby preventing the operator's feet from shock caused by the reactive force of the elongated treadles.
