Abstract:
1. An exercise-cord anchored device adapted for detachably securing thereto an anchoring end of an elastic cord, comprising: an anchored mount having a biasing member disposed in said insert opening and having a connected end secured relative to said upper surface, and an urging end disposed to be movable between a partially extended position where said urging end is closer to said upper surface, and a fully extended position where said urging end is biased against said seat with a biasing force; a tubular insert adapted to couple with the anchoring end of the elastic cord, having a mounting end which is configured to be insertable into said insert opening so as to permit said tubular insert to be manually moved toward said upper surface against the biasing force to as to displace said urging end to the partially extended position, and a protuberance disposed on said mounting end of said tubular insert, and configured such that, by virtue of guiding said protuberance a long said inserting route, said mounting end is pushed manually against the biasing force, and such that, once said protuberance is brought to extend beyond said seat by virtue of displacing said urging end to the partially extended position, said protuberance is turned angularly over said seat so as to be snapped into said concavity, thereby abutting against said rest wall; and an abutment member which is disposed in and movable relative to said insert opening in the lengthwise direction between proximate and distal positions relative to said lower surface that correspond to the fully and partially extended positions, and which has an urged surface biased by said urging end of said biasing member, and a press surface disposed to abut against said seat when said abutment member is at the proximate position; wherein said insert opening extends through said upper surface, said exercise-cord anchored device further comprising an end cap disposed to be engaged with said upper surface to cover said insert opening, and having a positioning protuberance that is formed on a bottom surface thereof and that engages said connected end of said biasing member, said abutment member further having a positioning protrusion formed on said urged surface for engaging said urging end of said biasing member.
