| Description of Patent: |
A rowing machine with a body frame assembly and actuated
by a seated. user. It includes a stabilizing wheel assembly
with the ends of a pivotally mounted axle provided with
wheels. A pivotally mounted front wheel assembly is
designed for steering the machine and a rotably mounting
rear wheel for supporting the bulk of the user's weight as it
is transmitted the seat assembly to the frame of the machine
and to the rear wheel. The steeting mechanism includes a
novel steering linkage rod connecting the fork supporting
the front wheel and the pivotally mounted axle where the
stabilizing wheel assembly is rotably mounted. The approximate distance from the pivoting axis of the front wheel to the point on which one end of the steering linkage is pivotally
mounted con'esponds to 3 inches. The length of the steering
linkage rod is approximately 27 and 5/16 inches. The distance
from the pivoting axis of the axle to which the stabilizing
wheels are mounted to the point where the other end of the
steering linkage is connected is 4 and 3/4 inches. These
measurements have found to provide the optimum results
and minor variations are contemplated to give substantially
the same results. Specially when the measurements are
proportionally increased or decreased maintaining the same
relationships. |
