Patent ID: 7931565

Claim:
A swing exercise machine comprising: a seat; a pedestal to which the seat is mounted; a movable table; a pair of front links and a pair of rear links connected at a front end and a rear end of the movable table and the pedestal, respectively, and configured to support the pedestal in a manner to be swung in a first direction; a base plate supporting the movable table configured to be swung around an axis in the first direction; and a seat driving apparatus provided between the pedestal and the movable table, the seat driving apparatus comprising: a single motor connected to the movable table, a first driving unit that converts a driving force of the single motor to reciprocal linear motion in the first direction or reciprocal swing motion around an axis in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and a second driving unit that converts the driving force of the single motor to reciprocal swing motion around the axis in the first direction, wherein the single motor is connected to the movable table such that an output shaft of the single motor extends perpendicular to a bottom face of the movable table, the first driving unit comprises: a motor gear fixed to the output shaft of the single motor; a first gear engaged with the motor gear; a first shaft, opposite ends of which are respectively supported on the movable table, and the first shaft is fixed to the first gear so that a driving force of the output shaft is transmitted to the first shaft; an eccentric crank coupled to an end of the first shaft; and an arm link, one end of which is coupled to the eccentric crank and another end of which is pivoted to one of the pair of front links by a pin, wherein when the first shaft is rotated, the eccentric crank circulates eccentrically with respect to the first shaft such that the pair of front links move reciprocally via the arm link in the first direction, and the second driving unit comprises: a first shaft gear which is fixed on the first shaft; a second gear which is engaged with the first shaft gear; a second shaft, opposite ends of which are operably connected to the movable table, and the second gear is fixed to the second shaft; and an eccentric rod, disposed on a side of the pedestal parallel to the first direction, and one end of which is coupled eccentrically to the second shaft and another end of which is rotatably pivoted on the base plate, wherein an upper end of the eccentric rod is coupled eccentrically to an end of the second shaft by a pin, and a lower end of the eccentric rod is rotatably pivoted on a coupling member, which has an L-shape and fixed on the base plate with a pin, so that when the second shaft is rotated the upper end of the eccentric rod circulates eccentrically and the seat mounted on the pedestal is reciprocally rotated around a swing shaft of the movable table with respect to the base plate.
