The application for the patent was published on July 31, 2026, under issue no. 31/2026.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electrically operated pulley height adjustment system for cable-based gym machines. It utilizes an electric motor, controller, and switch mechanism that allows users to raise or lower the pulley height easily with the press of a button. The system eliminates the need for manual adjustments using pins or levers, thereby improving convenience, safety, and workout efficiency. Position sensors are incorporated to ensure accurate pulley placement, while a safety auto-lock mechanism secures the pulley at the desired height during operation. In certain embodiments, the system may include a smart memory feature that stores user-specific pulley positions for quick adjustment. Additionally, optional IoT connectivity enables remote operation and monitoring through mobile devices. The system can be integrated into newly manufactured gym equipment or retrofitted onto existing machines, providing a modern, user-friendly, and energy-efficient solution for improving functionality and user experience in fitness environments.
