Treadmills, cycles, and swimming flumes are used to estimate $\dot{V}O_{2max}$ (maximum oxygen uptake). Ergometers are devices that measure the work done by a person during physical activity. Tissot spirometers measure lung volumes. Cardiac rehab devices are for post - heart - problem recovery. Training equipment is a general term. Since the question is about devices to estimate $\dot{V}O_{2max}$ (related to measuring work/effort during activity), ergometers fit best.
