Portable exercising device
First Claim
1. An independent multi-purpose portable exercising device for exercising all muscle groups of the body utilizing various techniques, in various positions in combination with massaging, or for massaging only of all parts of the body, comprising an elongated main shaft (1), two exterior tubes (10) axially positioned on the main shaft (1), two ball-bearings (11) affixed into the remote ends of the exterior tubes (10) and on the main shaft (1), a central core (C) inserted into the adjacent ends of the exterior tubes (10), which it joins and keeps supported, two pressure tubes (8) interposed between the outer rims of the ball-bearings (11) and the central core (C) and concentric with it, a stationary handle (15) which Is firmly affixed onto one end of the main shaft (1), a pressure-adjusting handle (16) with an orifice and axial screw-threading, which is affixed onto the other end of the main shaft (1), two systems for receiving and carrying pressure between the inner rims of the ball bearings (11) and the handles (15)-(16), a safety nut (17) tightly affixed onto the screw- threaded end of the main shaft (1) next to the pressure adjusting handle (16), two exterior tube shells (18) which surround the tubes, as well as an adjustable elastic band (B) which attaches onto the systems of receiving and carrying pressure.

Abstract
A portable, multi-faceted exercising and massaging device with adjustable turning resistance, having a stationary handle affixed to one end of the main shaft and a pressure adjusting handle with an orifice and axial screw threading affixed to the other end of the main shaft with a safety nut and two systems for receiving pressure between the inner rims of the bail bearings and handles. Around the main shaft are attached two external tubes with the mentioned ball bearings within the remote ends and joined at the adjacent ends through the central core, which is comprised of a tubular shaft with a central sleeve and connecting ring firmly attached at its middle onto the shaft, of two resistance sleeves and of two pairs of washers. This construction of the central core enables the exterior tubes with their shells, to rotate either freely around the main shaft as a single tube for massage use, or as independent tubes with adjustable resistance of their relative turning around the tubular shaft for exercising wrist, arm and upper body muscles. Near the handles are the receiving rings onto which is attached the adjustable elastic band, useful for both pressure-controlled massaging of the body areas it surrounds, as well as for tension and weight exercises of most body muscles.
