Assignee:

Walkstyles, Inc. - Laguna Hills CA

International Classification:

A63B 71/00

US Classification:

482 8, 482 3, 482 9, 600300

Abstract:

An interactive exercise device for measuring and displaying exercise performance parameters, the interactive exercise device including a step measuring device that outputs a step signal corresponding to each step walked by a user, a processor for determining a plurality of exercise performance parameters based on the step signals output from the step measuring device, a memory for storing the determined exercise performance parameters, a menu-driven interface display for displaying a plurality of menus, the menus for displaying at least the determined exercise performance parameters, a user input device for operation by the user to select a display of one of the menus on the interface display and to provide input data corresponding to a selected display, and an interface connection for connecting the interactive exercise device to an external computing device, the interface connection supporting an upload of the determined exercise performance parameters from the interactive exercise device to the external computing device, and supporting a download of user-specified data from the external computing device to the interactive exercise device, the user-specified data including at least one user-specified message that is displayed on the interface display when a user-selected one of the determined exercise performance parameters reaches a user-specified threshold.

Appl. No.:

10/888139

Inventors:

Dennis Parks - Laguna Niguel CA, US
Martin Ogle - Laguna Beach CA, US

International Classification:

A63B 57/00

US Classification:

473408000

Abstract:

A golf accessory usable in combination with a ferromagnetic surface and in combination as a rest for an object is comprised of a fixed plate defining at least one descending leg serving as a divot tool and a hinged plate rotatably coupled to the fixed plate. A rigid tab extends from the hinged plate and us rotatable to a position in contact against the fixed plate to act as a as a lever to assist in rotation of the hinged plate and to act as a stop to define a fixed dihedral angle between the fixed and hinged plates when in an open configuration to serve as the rest for the object. A magnet is disposed through the fixed plate for providing magnetic attachment of the fixed plate to the ferromagnetic surface. A ball marker is magnetically coupled to the magnet.
