Description

The invention relates to a vibration plate for training a user and a training set consisting of a vibration plate and a seat attachable thereto.

Vibration plates are known in the prior art in various embodiments. They are used in fitness centers, therapeutic facilities or homes as exercise equipment for the health and fitness of a user. As a rule, the user has to stand on the vibration plate for a certain time and, if necessary, execute prescribed exercises for him.

Some known embodiments comprise a seat. These embodiments can not be used standing up. Instead, the user has to sit for a while on the seat of the vibration plate. These embodiments require a lot of space even when not in use.

The object of the invention is to provide a versatile and space-saving vibration plate.

According to the invention, this object is achieved with the subject matter of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.

According to the invention, the vibration plate for training a user comprises a housing, an electrically operable actuator unit accommodated in the housing, a surface arranged on the housing, usable by a user for training in standing, sitting and / or lying, several feet, and / or on the housing and / or or on the surface arranged receptacles for manually releasable attachment of a separate seat. The separate seat is preferably attachable and / or screwed by means of the recordings on the vibration plate. Thus, the seat is particularly safe and easy to attach to the vibrating plate. Furthermore, the seat is particularly easy to remove. A user can attach the separate seat in a few seconds on the vibration plate or screw on and remove the separate seat in a few seconds from the vibration plate. Thus, the user can optionally train directly on the vibrating plate or train sitting on the seat mounted on the vibrating plate. By providing the shots, the vibrating plate is versatile and yet saves space.

The housing is preferably substantially closed. It may comprise a main body and a plate body. The main body is preferably rigid, so that it stands securely on a flat surface in any operating state of the vibrating plate. The main body preferably remains free of movements in any operating state, in particular free of vibrations. The plate body is preferably designed to be movable with respect to the base body. The plate body may be connected to the main body via the actuator unit. The plate body can span a larger area than the base body. The plate body, for example, at the various edges each between 3 cm and 10 cm, preferably between 4 cm and 7 cm, projecting relative to the base body. The plate body can partially surround the base body.

The plate body can be vibrated by the actuator unit. The vibration may include a tilting movement with respect to the base body. The plate body may in particular be laterally tiltable with respect to the base body. The plate body can be brought by the actuator unit to a lateral tilting movement. The lateral tilting movement takes place about the longitudinal axis of the plate body. The longitudinal axis of the plate body can also be referred to as rolling or rolling axis. Accordingly, the lateral tilting movement can be referred to as rolling or rolling. Preferably, the lateral tilting movement can be realized as a sequence of tilting back and forth with a predefinable frequency. The frequency can be in a range of 1 Hz to 20 Hz. Preferably, the frequency is in a range of 2 Hz to 10 Hz. Particularly preferred is a range of 4 Hz to 8 Hz. The frequency can be advantageously set by entering a user and / or automatically. The lateral tilting movement forces a user standing on the vibration plate to a compensation movement. So it requires a constant muscular activity of the user. Through a Training with the vibration plate so coordination, muscle and body tension of the user can be improved.

The actuator unit may have a battery and / or a power supply. The power supply can be connected to a power supply. The housing, the base body and / or the plate body may be formed of hard plastic.

The straight gripping portions 24a are parallel to each other and in each case orthogonal to the straight pipe sections 23a of the support tubes 23rd

The connecting portions 24b are respectively placed on the straight pipe sections 23a and welded thereto. Each of the two gripping tubes 24 connects the two straight pipe sections 23a with each other. Each of the two straight pipe sections 23a connects the two gripping pipes 24 with each other. The connecting portions 24b form with the straight pipe sections 23a of the support tubes 23 each an angle in the range of 60 ° to 65 °. By providing the connecting portions 24b, the straight gripping portions 24a are arranged in a height corresponding to the seat surface.

At the two straight gripping portions 24a, a second coating 26 is arranged in each case. The second coating 26 is made of synthetic leather, such as polyurethane synthetic leather. The second cover 26 is made removable by providing a zipper. The second coating 26 is in Fig. 3 shown so that the zipper is visible. Conveniently, however, the second cover 26 is mounted so that the zipper does not interfere with the user's hands when gripping the gripping tube 24.

As already described above, the first coating completely encloses the molded part of the seat part 21. To this end, a portion of the first coating passes between the molding and the support structure 22. In addition, another portion of the first coating completely encloses the transverse struts and a substantial portion of the straight pipe portion 23a.

Fig. 4 shows a perspective view of a training set according to the invention in the use position of a rear side.

The seat 20 is attached to the vibration plate 1. All four feet each engage in the corresponding receptacle 8. In each case, the extension 25 engages in the second section 8b and the free end of the
End portion 23b in the first section 8a. The covers 12 are each removed from the receptacles 8 and are only respectively attached to the housing 2 via its holding portion 12c. The mats 6a, 6b remain as already in Fig. 1 shown in the recesses 11 a, 11 b of the plate body 4 is arranged.

The seat 20 has a slightly larger vertical extent than the vibration plate 1. The vertical extent of the vibration plate 1 is for example 13 cm. The anatomically shaped seat surface of the seat 20 mounted on the vibrating plate 1 is located, for example, in a range of 15 cm to 19 cm above the surface 5 of the vibrating plate 1. The second coating 26 around the gripping tube 24 of the seat 20 mounted on the vibrating plate 1, for example, reaches a height of 16 cm above the surface 5 of the vibrating plate 1. D. h. the vertical extent of the seat 20 is on average about 20% greater than the vertical extent of the vibrating plate. 1

In addition, the vibration plate 1 comprises two connection elements 27 and two manually releasably designed elastic traction cables for training the arms and / or the trunk of a user. The elastic tension cables are in Fig. 4 not illustrated. Each of the connection elements 27 has an eyelet 27a. In each eyelet 27a, one of the two elastic tension cables can be detachably fastened become. For this purpose, a snap hook is provided on each elastic end of the pull rope. The elastic traction cables each have at their opposite end of the carabiner hook on a handle that is palpable for a user with his hands. The connection elements 27 are arranged in such a way and the elastic tension cables are designed such that the elastic tension cables for a user sitting on the seat 20 while sitting are usable for additional training.
