An exercising machine which uses an electromagnet assembly as the resistance to be overcome in moving of the movable section of the exerciser relative to the fixed section of the exerciser. This electromagnetic assembly can be adjusted so that the force required to be overcome in moving of the movable section relative to the fixed section can be increased or decreased. The force encountered is maintained constant during moving of the movable section relative to the fixed section.

An exerciser comprising: a stand adapted to be fixedly located on a supportive surface, said stand including a ceiling section adapted to be located in a vertically spaced position above a human being user; a sheet material cover fixed on said ceiling section, said sheet material cover having an inner chamber, a mounting plate being fixedly mounted on said sheet material cover, said mounting plate being located within said inner chamber; a plurality of electromagnets mounted on said mounting plate a shaft mount fixedly mounted on said cover, said mounting plate including a central enlarged hole, said shaft mount located within said enlarged hole, a bearing assembly mounted within said shaft mount; a shaft having an inner end and an outer end, said inner end connecting with said shaft mount, said shaft being rotationally supported by said bearing assembly, said outer end being fixed to a tubular member, pivotal movement of said tubular member is permitted by the rotational mounting of said shaft on said shaft mount; said sheet material cover having a peripheral inwardly extending flange, said flange defining an enlarged opening, said electromagnet being partially located within said enlarged opening; a metallic plate fixed to said shaft, said metallic plate covering said enlarged opening with the peripheral portion of said metallic plate abutting against said flange, said metallic plate being slightly spaced from said electromagnet with said flange preventing said metallic plate from deflecting and connecting said electromagnet; said electromagnet and said metallic plate are adapted to supply a resistance in response to an electrical energy; and said tubular member permits said user to simultaneously rotate said shaft in either clockwise or counterclockwise direction and work against said resistance, whereby when said electrical energy is increased to said electromagnets, the amount of resistance is increased. *** BRS DOCUMENT BOUNDARY ***
