ABSTRACT:
An extremely versatile heavy duty exercise bench (10) integrates the functional features necessary for body development through weight lifting, by providing a manually operable, double adjustable, reversible, tiltable, and sliding seat configuration (15, 20). The seat mounting means (15) includes upwardly facing rails (32) which face complementary flanges (33) on a flange assembly (34) on the bottom of the seat (20). The flanges (33) ride upon the rails (32) and guide longitudinal movement of the seat (20), while leaving the seat (20) free to be lifted manually and reversed. A manually operable clamp (60) secures the seat (20) in position on the mounting means (15) when the seat (20) is in use. Hinges (36,37) and telescoping tubes (41,42) provide for independent adjustment of the tilting of the seat portions (21,22). The bench (10) also includes a dual foam seat construction (27,28), efficient and manually operable angled locking pins (50) for adjusting certain bench/seat positions, manually operable clamp means (60) for adjusting other bench/seat positions, and a combined spotter-tipover stand (80) for improved bench stability.
