Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An exercise machine comprises a resistance device and a power supplier. The resistance device provides a resistance and comprises an axle. The power supplier comprises one or more conducting rings arranged at a side or respectively arranged at a side of the resistance device. The conducting rings are coaxially coupled with the axle and are capable of rotating about the axle.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . An exercise machine, comprising: a resistance device providing a resistance and comprising an axle; a power supplier comprising a first conducting ring arranged at a side of the resistance device; wherein the first conducting ring coaxially connects with the axle and rotates about the axle. 2 . The exercise machine of claim 1 , wherein the power supplier further comprises a second conducting ring arranged at the side of the resistance device or arranged at another side of the resistance device. 3 . The exercise machine of claim 2 , wherein each conducting ring comprises a first electrode ring and a second electrode ring. 4 . The exercise machine of claim 3 , wherein each conducting ring further comprises a connector, and the connector comprises two contacts to respectively contact the first electrode ring and the second electrode ring. 5 . The exercise machine of claim 1 , further comprising two cranks respectively arranged at a side of the resistance device, wherein each crank has an end to couple with the axle, and a portion of a user exerts a force to the crank and makes the crank to rotate about the axle. 6 . The exercise machine of claim 1 , wherein the resistance device comprises a driving wheel and a magnetic flywheel. 7 . An exercise machine, comprising: a resistance device providing a resistance and comprising an axle; two cranks respectively arranged at a side of the resistance device, wherein each crank has an end coupling to the axle; a power supplier comprising a first conducting ring arranged at a side of the resistance device; wherein the first conducting ring coaxially connect with the axle and rotate about the axle. 8 . The exercise machine of claim 7 , wherein the power supplier further comprises a second conducting ring arranged at the side of the resistance device or arranged at another side of the resistance device. 9 . The exercise machine of claim 8 , wherein each conducting ring comprises a first electrode ring and a second electrode ring. 10 . The exercise machine of claim 9 , wherein each conducting ring further comprises a connector, and the connector comprises two contacts to respectively contact the first electrode ring and the second electrode ring.
