Abstract (en)

An aerobic exerciser with elongated stride comprising a frame, a bell crank, a left telescoping pedal rail rotatably attached to the left side of the bell crank at one end and pivotably attached to the frame at the other end, and a right telescoping pedal rail rotatably attached to the right side of the bell crank at one end and pivotably attached to the frame at the other end. In operation, under the weight of the user, each pedal, supported on a pedal rail follows a generally elliptical path in response to rotation of the bell crank. Vertical movement of a telescoping pedal rail is accommodated by the pivot and horizontal movement of the pedal rail results in extension and retraction of the pedal rail. <IMAGE>
