Abstract:
1. An incremental weight system having a plurality of selectable weights, comprising: an incremental weight stack having a plurality of incremental weights, each of said incremental weights defining a slot; a selector plate having a number of pins equal to a total number of said incremental weights with each pin uniquely corresponding to a single one of said plurality of incremental weights on a one-to-one basis so that each pin has a uniquely corresponding incremental weight and vice versa, each of said pins positioned on said selector plate to uniquely engage said slot of said corresponding incremental weight, said selector plate being proximate and adjacent said incremental weights so that said pins may selectably engage said slots and said selector plate being positionable so as to selectably and uniquely engage one or more of said incremental weights, wherein said incremental weight stack offsets a radial distance from a center of said selector plate, wherein each of said slots of said incremental weights is disposed at a different radial distance from said center of said selector plate, wherein each of said pins is disposed at a different radial distance from said center of said selector plate, and whereby displacing and turning said selector plate, individual ones of said incremental weights are engageable by a corresponding pin which is passable through a corresponding slot.
