Primary Examiner: Donnelly; Jerome W.

Attorney, Agent or Firm: Isaac; John L. Isaac & Associates

An exercise device for use with a support frame is disclosed. The device includes a pair of spaced clamp members each having a body portion terminating in first and second edges. A length-adjustable attachment member interconnects the clamp members, and a grip element is associated with the attachment member intermediate the clamp members. A leverage mechanism is operatively connected to the clamp members so that when the clamp member first edges are supported on a frame, the leverage mechanism urges the clamp member second edges laterally inwardly against the support frame in response to a downward force exerted on the grip element.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Accordingly, it is one object of the present invention to provide a portable exercise device that is designed to be utilized with the frame of a doorway without placing unacceptable weight onto the doorway frame edge.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a portable exercise device that is lightweight, small and compact for storage, and easily transportable for travel.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a portable exercise device that is adjustable to all sizes of doorway jams and wall widths without the use of a bar.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a portable exercise device that is adjustable to different positions for different arm width placements to accomplish different workouts.
To achieve the foregoing and other objects and in accordance with the purpose of the present invention, as embodied and broadly described herein, an exercise device for use with a support frame is disclosed.
The device includes a pair of spaced clamp members each having a body portion terminating in first and second edges.
A length-adjustable attachment member interconnects the clamp members, and a grip element is associated with the attachment member intermediate the clamp members.
A leverage mechanism is operatively connected to the clamp members so that when the clamp member first edges are supported on a frame, the leverage mechanism urges the clamp member second edges laterally inwardly against the support frame in response to a downward force exerted on the grip element.
