Description

Technical area

The invention relates to a device on a height-adjustable and bank adjustable climbing device with exchangeable sprouts for sports and therapy applications, according to the preamble of the first claim.

State of the art

Treadmills as fitness and therapy equipment for terrestrial use as well as for the swimming pool area are known in a large variety of treadmills on the one hand can be driven by pure muscle power, as described in US Pat. No. 8,343,016 and on the other hand driven by a motor as described in patent EP 1 466 651.

Furthermore, the treadmills can be adjusted in inclination and can automatically run corresponding run programs by means of a controller.

Climbing equipment as described in the patent DE 3 815 564 A1 or DE 19 935 868 A1 are also known.

Presentation of the invention

The invention relates to a climbing equipment, which can be pivoted from a low angular position to vertical and also over it, on which rungs are mounted, which are easily removable in order to change in particular the distances between the rungs. The climbing equipment is used for fitness and therapy and promotes endurance, as well as the coordination of legs and arms and strengthens all muscle parts of the body, which would use humans in natural environment, according to the preamble of the first claim.

The climbing equipment needs in its basic version no electrical power, because the body weight resp. gravity drives an endless belt and an adjustable brake ensures that the user, e.g. climbing a wall, this without risk, because the distance to the ground is extremely low and remains so. Furthermore, a drive motor can be used in the event that the climbing strap device is to be used at a low angle of attack. In such a case, the rungs can be removed with a few simple steps from the holder and thus is a generous treadmill available. Also, with a powered climbing tackle, additional exercises can be performed, such as Negative exercises or a virtual dumbbell workout.

Unlike a climbing wall such. described in patent DE 3 815 464 A1, such systems are not designed for higher speeds, also not with regard to concentricity, in that the climbing wall is divided into segments and they behave haltingly in the deflection around the rollers, except one would the segments very narrow finished, which would ultimately increase the climbing wall massively.

In this invention, the training events concentrated almost centrally on the climbing band, which also represents a treadmill at low slope at the same time. The climbing device has removable rungs, which are mounted at a distance from the climbing wall and on the belt or segment generates relatively high tilting moments and thus requires a solid support. Also, the load changes are considerable, as it is all about straight to "top" to come and thus affects the entire body load short term on the left then on the right rung side. The feet are part of the movement process and can not only support themselves on the rungs, but also push against the wall behind, even if the wall is overhanging, i. an adjustment angle of more than 90 °. It is therefore important that the wall with the rungs moves synchronously. The wall is a stable and solid construction and part of the chassis on which attack the lifting cylinder. In front of the wall is a sliding layer or sliding foil. Before, resp. over the slip film is the tape which is a treadmill according to the prior art. On the two sides of the band, a narrow strap is attached, which can absorb high tensile forces and, for. Also steel strands or Dyneema can include, because on these straps, the holder for the rungs is attached. The upper and lower roller which serves to deflect the belt, has paragraphs on both sides to ensure the synchronization of the belt with the straps. The heels in the rollers also have the advantage that they additionally support the parallel guidance of the band. If the tape is fastened above the tape, there is no need for a stepped roller, which requires a different tape guide.

The sprouts can be unlocked with little effort and removed from the holder, which is attached to the carrier tape, be it for replacement purposes, shape and color change, it is the distances from rung to rung to change the stature and the Climbing speed of a person to take into account and offer in addition to the leg training with a training optimization, namely at the same time to train the arms, as well as to strengthen the chest and back muscles. This can take place by means of a motor drive with a speed specified by the trainee, or corresponding detectors detect the position of the trainee, average the detected values so that the rotational speed of the drive motor can be regulated for a sensitively metered readjustment of the endless belt, e.g. by means of a PID algorithm or quite simply but also effectively with the position determination of the trainee, a braking means observes the downward movement of the treadmill and the sprouts.

Instead of sprouts can also mount steps, which can be adjusted manually at an angle, this in step with the inclination angle of the climbing tape device or the kicks are automatically kept always horizontally, so that the climbing tape device in a position the kicks serve as a tread surface, in the raised position as a staircase and in the very elevated position as a climbing device, in that the kicks additionally have integrated rungs.

By means of the invention of such a climbing band can playfully simulate mountaineering, climbing activities in the jungle and the like by means of a software current or computer-based routes are stored with images in a controller, with information regarding slope, altitude, wind speeds and other interesting activity data, the whole thing can also be accompanied by sound. By means of a sensor-based tap of the climbing speed, the image control can be clocked and displayed on a screen, the climbing speed accordingly.

This is achieved by the features of the first claim according to the invention.

The core of the invention is, with a climbing tape device, which has rungs or steps, which are attached to spacers and this again only selectively on the tape, and to allow different grades and levels of difficulty and by means of quick-release and removable sprouts and a treadmill to have the tape speed throttled by means of a brake and to produce a controlled active speed with a drive motor, as well as to provide counter-rotating training operations by means of reverse belt rotation and by means of software, sensors and a suitably positioned screen to simulate climbing routes up to that at an angle adjustment of the climbing strap device, the kicks automatically remain horizontal.

Further advantageous embodiments of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims.

Only the essential elements for the immediate understanding of the invention are shown schematically.

Way to carry out the invention

FIG. 1 shows a schematic side view of a raised climbing tackle 1 with an endless belt 2, a first cylinder roller 3, a second cylinder roller 4 with the drive motor 5, a brake 5a, a base plate 6 and the endless belt 2 laterally mounted spacers 7, which are equipped with rungs 8 and by means of the adjusting cylinders 9 which acts on a chassis 10, adjusted the running and climbing position angle. A camera 11 and a controller 12 secure the position of the exerciser T, a screen 13 visually shows the power values.

The climbing device 1 can be lifted by means of the adjusting cylinder 9 from the horizontal position to the raised position. At the endless running belt 2 spacers 7 are attached to the two sides, wherein the substrate of the endless running belt 2 is reinforced, as shown in Fig. 2. The spacers 7 are advantageously mounted at constant intervals at which the rungs 8 are fastened and connected horizontally to the opposite spacers 7.

Running on a treadmill is beneficial for the circulation, strengthens the heart, lungs and strengthens the muscles of the lower extremities and makes the tendons supple. It is thus advantageous also the upper extremities, i. Include upper body and arms at the same time. Climbing is a natural process that people have always pursued and only since the industrialization this was less and less, with the exception of mountain sports, which has even massively increased. There are of course many equipment that can be practiced climbing, so you do not always need a rock wall to acquire the technique or exercise the sport. The climbing tape device 1 described here, has much resemblance to the well-known wall bars in gyms where the arms and legs can quickly reach the top rung and is not geared to climbing technique. Depending on the position of the endless running belt 2, it is a slight ramp and the trainee T should not, as in climbing, strive for a particular climbing technique, but at regular intervals comes a rung 8 after another in the grip, which held with his hands and a underlying rung 8 can be repelled with the feet accordingly. The steeper the endless treadmill 2 is set up, the more come the arms, legs and also the whole upper body used, at the same time serve the rungs 8 as a sure step for the feet. Even in the overhanging position, i. if the endless treadmill 2 has a setting angle of over 90 °, the feet can still use the sprouts 8. For this reason, it is advantageous that a fixed base plate 6 is mounted, so that firstly no foot or leg of the exerciser T can slip on the rung 8 and can be clamped by the opposite, high-rising rung 8. Second, that a continuous endless treadmill 2 is mounted so that it also serves as a foot-supporting element up to a high angle of inclination of the climbing tape device 1 and when using the high-mounted climbing tape device 1, it can cause no Quuckschgeräuschen of sliding rubber soles on the base plate 6 or sanding marks , Third, by lowering the climbing harness 1 and removing the rungs 8, the endless treadmill 2 serves as a carrier platform for running. The sprouts 8 may also be at different distances, e.g. every 20 or 40 or 60 cm are attached, taking into account smaller and larger exercisers. Identical distances have the advantage that the exerciser T can remember a rhythm of movement and does not have to focus on individual rungs 8 again and again. Instead of rungs 8 can also be a network of ropes are attached, which not only horizontal ropes but also vertical, which thus form the network structure. Also, instead of sprouts, 8 steps with a horizontal tread can be attached to simulate climbing stairs. A high-quality endless treadmill 2 which applies flatly when deflecting over the cylindrical rollers 3.4, also ensures a jerk-free lowering of the rungs 8 on the climbing device 1. So the endless treadmill 2 taut but not too tight and not flabby, a band tensioning means 14 is attached which correctly biases the endless running belt 2 by means of a roller and a spring.

The inclination adjustment N of the endless belt 2 by means of the adjusting cylinder 9 in the desired position. The actuating cylinder 8 is also used in a double version for general support and bending safety of the climbing tape device. 1

It is also conceivable that the climbing tape device 1 and the adjusting cylinder 9 is mounted on a suitable wall and the floor frame 10a is mounted on the wall.

By means of a camera 11 and a controller 12 of the exerciser T can be kept at a predetermined location with a corresponding tolerance deviation, no matter how fast or slow he climbs the rungs 8. A screen 13 also gives e.g. how many meters the runner did virtually, training time, calories burned and the like. The drive motor 5 on the climbing device 1 can be configured so that it moves a preselected speed and thus the speed of the endless running belt 2 is given. With the detection of the exerciser T by means of camera 11 and controller 12, an intervention in the preselected speed is additionally provided, so that it remains ensured that the exercising person T during training in a given altitude range, resp. stops at a given distance from the ground. However, the drive motor 5 can also represent only a brake 5a, which can drive the weight of a trainee T with a specific, manually or electronically preselected speed down and this tries to keep his position on the climbing equipment 1 course in its desired position. In this case too, a controller 12 controls the exerciser T by means of the camera 11 or another measuring device and brakes the endless running belt 2 accordingly.

An electrical contact mat M ensures that when touched this turns off the climbing tape device 1.

2 shows a schematic partial side view of a climbing device 1 with an endless belt 2, a cylinder roller 3 with screw recesses 15, drive motor 5, respectively. Brake 5a, a base plate 6 with groove 16, a sliding foil 17 and above the endless treadmill 2 with lateral tension belt 18 on which the spacers 7 are mounted for the rungs 8 by means of the screws 19 and nut 19a, as well as the rungs lock 20th

The central element of climbing equipment 1 is the attachment and management of the spacer 7, which must be well secured on the one hand on endless belt 2, because in addition to tensile forces can also act corresponding tilting forces, since the rungs 8 are mounted at a distance from the endless belt 2 and thus exert a considerable leverage and a tearing out of the screw 19, respectively. the mother 19a can be done. The backup is achieved by the endless belt 2 on both sides of a pull belt 18 is attached to which then the spacer 7 is fastened by means of screws 19. Furthermore, the spacer 7 is secured asymmetrically to the endless running belt 2, i. behind the screw 19 by means of the bottom part 7a, longitudinally supported so that massively less tilting forces act, which could tear the screw 19 from the connection between the endless belt 2 and pull belt 18, the spacer 7 is only selectively connected to the endless belt 2. The screw 19 is also connected to the nut 19a, which has a round head and the round head at the same time as a guide and anti-skid by 3 screw holes 15 are in the cylinder roller, in which the nut 19a engages in the deflection of the endless running belt 2 and so ensures in that the entire band can not warp or slip obliquely. A slipping of the endless treadmill 2 could be countered by this would bias accordingly, but which would have a higher power drive would result in a motorized use of the climbing tape device 1. In the base plate 6 also has a groove 16 is inserted, which leaves the mother 19a space under the pull strap 18.

Due to the flexible endless running belt 2 and the equally flexible tension belt 18, which may be reinforced by aramid fibers or Dyneemaschnüren or steel strands and easily follow the radius of the cylinder roller 3, the spacer 7 may not be attached flat, but only selectively, i. just only at the connection screw 19, nut 19a. In the deflection of the endless running belt 2 is taken to ensure that this synchronously on both sides by the nut 19a engages the screw recess 15, and that the majority of the planar force support of the bottom part 7a on the spacer 7, thus at the Umlenkradius the cylindrical roller 3.4 without contact is and thus no jerky, bulky rotary motion performs.

The attachment of the spacer 7 can also be effected by means of a rotatably mounted plastic joint or by means of an elastomer or tissue, e.g. under the spacer 7, at the bottom part 7a, another Zugriementeil 18a is attached, depending on the material pairing, either screwed or glued or welded, which is connected to the pull belt 18 and endless belt 2 and the spacer 7 is thus very flexible. The nut 19a with the round head ensures that the spacer 7 is also longitudinally guided and remains. An additional longitudinal guide, e.g. a small conical bolt which is attached to the pull strap 18 and retracts into a small conical bore on the bottom part 7a or similar Eingreifführungsmittel that can be easily attached to the pull strap 18 in the case of the sprouts 8 are heavily stressed.

The spacer 7 is not only used to hold the rung 8 with a distance to the endless running belt 2 and to distribute the forces acting low, but also to place the sprouts 8 smoothly in the rung hole 21, the rung 8 against rotation, as well as secure against cross so that it can not slip out of the spacer 7. Such a sprout lock 20 should allow the trainee T to change the sprouts 8 quickly or to remove all odd sprouts, so that the distances between the sprouts 8 are greater or remove all to use the endless treadmill 2 as a treadmill - with a corresponding reduction of Angle of attack - but also the rungs 8 again quickly and safely to the climbing tape device 1 to install. Shown here is a variant of a launcher lock 20 with a bolt which has an integral axial extension lock, such as e.g. a snap ring or a spring-loaded locking ball and the like, so that it is ensured that the luff lock 20, even under high training load, remains secured. An e.g. Furthermore, the rung can have a bayonet catch at one end and, on the other side, the lug lock 20 can not only secure against rotation but at the same time be secured in the axial direction as well. The sprouts 8 can be classically made of wood, but also of metal or plastic with a coating or an applied structure and can have various shapes and diameters, as well as in contrasting color.

To ensure that the sprouts 8 are aligned horizontally, which can be adjusted with appropriate means to the rollers 3,4, but it is also possible that in particular when sewing a Zugriementeils 18a on the pull strap 18, the position the Zugriementeils 18a has not been perfectly attached. Here, by means of attaching the aligner 33, the spacer 7 is raised accordingly, which causes the rung 8 ultimately rests horizontally in the two rung holes 21. The effect of lifting by means of the aligner 33 is shown with the broken lines on the spacer 7. The alignment of a rung 8 can also be solved by means of an eccentric sleeve on the rung hole 21.

The pull strap 18 may be attached to or under the endless belt 2. This would mean that the cylindrical rollers 3,4 would have corresponding heels, i. two different diameters, so that the pull belt 18 has the same circulation as the endless running belt 2.

Although not too high loads on the endless treadmill 2 when climbing to observe, but when using the climbing tape device 1 as a treadmill, occur on impact of the heels between the base plate 6 and the endless treadmill 2 high friction forces, which by means of a Base plate 6 attached sliding foil 22 is reduced to a high degree.

FIG. 3 shows a schematic partial side view of a climbing device 1 with a base plate 6 with groove 16 and above the endless treadmill 2 with lateral tension belt 18, to which the spacers 7 are mounted for the rungs 8, as well as the rung lock 20, and a rail 23 each carries a roller 24 and this is connected to the spacer 7 by means of the roller holder 25 and in addition to the bottom part 7a, a front part 7b acts.

In the mode "overhang" in which the climbing tape device 1 goes beyond the setting angle of 90 °, it requires a corresponding leadership of the endless belt 2 and the tension belt 18. This is ensured by the connection screw 19, nut 19a, a roll holder 25th is mounted on which a roller 24 is attached. The roller 24 moves at a load application to the rung 8 on a designated rail 23 and thus it is ensured that the endless belt 2 and thus the pull belt 18 can not sag. Instead of the rollers 24 can be there also slide.

This is a simple and space-saving technical solution to a climbing equipment 1 with the large tilt adjustment N, as shown in Fig. 1, the rungs 8 well supported on the pull strap 18 to keep. The bottom part 7a as well as the front part 7b are based securely on the rigid base plate 6, to which the sliding film 17, not shown here, is advantageously mounted and thus significantly reduces the friction on the local surface load. Instead of the sliding film 17, a friction-reducing agent can be applied directly to the base plate 6, or friction-reducing plastic strips or sliding rollers and the like can be attached, in particular in the region of the tension belts 18.

Instead of the rollers 24 and the technical solution as described in Fig. 5 can be applied.

FIG. 4 1 shows a schematic side view of a raised climbing tackle device 1 with a drive motor 5, a controller 12, an unbalance motor 26, a dumbbell boom 27 and the cable pull 28, the take-up pulley 29 and the handle 30.

Such a climbing tape device 1 opens up further training opportunities and it can be further improvements to the well-being of the body so realize. One of them is that at least one unbalance motor 26 is mounted on the climbing-tape device 1 which causes vibration in the context of e.g. 25-50 Hz generated on climbing tackle 1, as it is also known in vibrating plates, but there let only vibrate the legs and in the case of the upper body such vibration would be desirable, the intensity would have to be increased accordingly. Strong vibrations usually work into the cervical spine and into the head, which can lead to severe headaches. In this case, the legs and the arms have direct contact with the sprouts 8, which are excited by the unbalance motor 26 and therefore it does not require much intensity in order to obtain a vibration effect on the whole body. The basic idea of the vibrating equipment is that the subtle variations in the surface stimulate the small, almost insignificant muscles and, from the base, stimulate the musculature of the body. This in short form, strengthens the muscles and grip on the hands and toes, which are positively subdued in normal climbing training permanently subliminal by the vibrations. The unbalance motor 26 is fixed to the floor frame 10 a and connected to the chassis 10. The connector 31, which is attached to the adjusting cylinder 9 and secures the connection to the chassis 10, may additionally be supported in rubber buffer elements, so that the unbalance motor 26, which makes a small and rapid rotary movement, acts as a pivot bearing in the connector 31, thus tilting the chassis 10 causes and represents a corresponding vibration by means of the frequency. If two unbalance motors 26 are mounted, they can run synchronously and execute a rectified tilting effect or asynchronously and thus additionally generate a lateral tilt, so that a kind of wobbling movement takes place on the climbing-tape device 1 and thus the vibration effect is intensified.

On the climbing tape device 1, a corresponding dumbbell arm 27 can be attached to the spacer 7, e.g. For example, a rung 8 may have an excess length and a metallic termination on which the usual weight plates 27a are mounted. This can be by means of a freewheel 32 in the case of an electric drive motor 5 is mounted directly training leg presses, bench presses and the like, realize on the opposite side Latzüge and much more. A Hubverriegelung which is not shown here, ensures that only in a corresponding stroke range at all the weight plates 27a can be lifted. By means of the motor 5 and an algorithm in the controller 12, an electronic sparring partner can be realized by supporting the motor 5 in the critical training moment the trainee T by means of motor power, so that it can perform its "work-out" fully, the motor 5 can also be active When it comes to a weight of a weight plate 27a during the lowering electrically an additional weight on it grab, to make the exercise even more intense. By means of the controller 12, such a program can be stored, or at the corresponding rung 8, a button is permanently installed or as a radio module on the finger of the exerciser T order to forward commands for more or less weight. Of course, the commands can also be forwarded by voice output.

On a cylindrical roller 3,4 of the odometer 34 is mounted, which also serves as a tachometer. This allows the exercises to be recognized in terms of distance and time and repetitions and stored by means of the controller 12 and forwarded to a PC or to a smartphone, as well as calculate calories and create statistics.

Furthermore, the climbing tape device 1 also serves as a cable pulling device, with which instead of acting directly on the rungs 8, this by means of the inclusion of a cable 28 which is hung there, resp. this is e.g. guided laterally on the first roller 3 and in Aufwickelpulley 29. With such a configuration, a cable pull 28 can be used to realize a significantly greater number of combinations of training than just the rungs 8, such as those shown in FIG. the inclusion of leg spread or training of the hamstrings or the cable 28 can serve as a rowing machine and much more. The cable therefore has handles 30, which may also be foot straps and the like.

FIG. 5 shows a schematic partial side view of a climbing device 1 with the cylinder roller 3 and the pull strap 18, with the pivot bearing 35 for the steps 36 with the integrated rungs 8, and mounted under the steps 36 guide rollers 37, which are supported on adjustable rails 38.

The attachment of kicks to the rungs 8 as already noted in Fig. 1 or the substitution of these is inexpensive in the case of the inclination angle N is rigid or allow the steps by means of manual angle adjuster different inclination angle of the climbing device 1, while maintaining horizontally aligned Kick.

But is a variable, continuous adjustment of the inclination angle N of the climbing tape device 1 in the foreground, thus the trainee T while running the climbing equipment lift 1 and thus can complete a stair climbing up to the vertical or higher angular position, so the kicks then can be used as sprouts 8, the solution described here is a simple and secure investment. On climbing tackle device 1, tensioning straps 18, which advantageously have a slip-resistant surface or a toothing in contact with the cylindrical rollers 3, 4, are attached to the cylinder rollers 3, 4. At the tension belt 18, the pivot bearing 35 are attached to which the treads 36 are mounted rotatably mounted. Below or to the side of the steps 36 39 guide rollers 37 are mounted on a fixed linkage. These can be moved on a mounted in climbing tackle device 1 rail 40, which is located on a rotatably mounted rail holder 40. The advantage of this design is that the guide rollers 37 solve a dual task, namely, on the one hand when the pull belt 18 is in motion, the tread 36 moves down together with the guide roller 37 and keeps it in the horizontal tread position, on the other hand, the inclination angle NW the climbing tape device 1 changed and thus parallel also the inclination angle NW1 of the rail 40, the distance between the pivot bearing 35 and the support point A and the guide roller 37 is elegantly compensated. The rail 38 is fixed to the rail holder 40, which is a virtual parallelogram and rotates about the pivot point DP and thus the pull belt 18, mounted on the base plate 6, which can be designed left and right each as a stable spar, thus always the same Angle has as the rail bracket 40. In this way, the climbing tape device 1 can be changed in inclination as shown in Fig. 1, for example by means of an actuating cylinder 9, which acts there on the chassis 10 and is also connected to the rail holder 40, so that it does not need another cylinder to keep the steps 36 always aligned horizontally. In this configuration, an endless belt 2 is not necessary because the climbing tape device 1 can be lowered to the horizontal level and the treads 36 thus form a flat surface for running or jogging. On the other hand, climbing equipment 1 can be raised so far that climbing stairs is no longer of any use. For this purpose, the outer edges can be removed by means of pull-out rails 41 and thus form rungs 8, with a distance D to the respective step 36, so that the hands, resp. Fingers when clasping the rungs 8 do not collide with the tread surface 36a. Conveniently, the treads 36 and the rungs 8 have a different color and in the retracted state serve as an optical edge protector and the rungs 8 may have a different material or texture than the treads 36. A cheaper variant is a step 36 with a corresponding distance D recess, which can be covered by a lid when not in use. So that the climbing device 1 can also be used overhanging during climbing, the roller holder 42 is laterally latched by way of example from a certain angular position, so that the guide roller 37 acts as a rail means in the overhanging position of the climbing tape device 1 and the step 36 can not unfold. Otherwise, the roll holder 42 is not active, so that neither body parts nor objects between the treads 36 can be clamped when laying the climbing device 1 horizontally. In general, a light barrier can be mounted at the upper end of the climbing tape device 1, should the trainee stumble and fall, this is stopped at the light barrier by power cut on the drive motor 5 and the climbing equipment 1, the inclination adjustment N reduced. Instead of a light barrier may also be a cable in the form of a tape attached, which emits an alarm at an angular adjustment of the elevator pulley or stops the drive motor 5 and advantageously also activates the actuating cylinder 9.

If the climbing tape device 1 is connected to a drive motor 5, then this can also rotate in the opposite direction, so that the steps start 36 and the exerciser T can train the stairs down and thus other muscle groups are activated. The contact mat M as shown in Fig. 1 is a cushion in this case, so that a falling trainee is collected safely and painlessly.

6 shows a schematic side view of a high-mounted climbing tape device 1 with a shortened endless belt 2a, with Bandumlenkrollen 48, a first cylinder roller 3, a second small cylinder roller 4a, drive motor 5, a brake 5a, a base plate 6, a lower toothed belt pulley 43, an upper toothed belt pulley 44 with the toothed belt 45 on which the spacers 7 fixed with rungs 8 and in a lower slide rail 46, and upper slide rail 47 are guided and by means of the actuating cylinder 9, which has a stroke sensor 49, and the contact strip 50 on the partial cover 51, as well as a camera 11, a controller 12 with a software input P and a screen 13.

A modified variant, as shown in FIG. 1, is a version in which the screen 13 plays a central role in that it shows the climbing route and the software stored in the controller 12, which by means of a software input P in the form of an SD card, UBS Sticks or via the Internet and the like, a climbing route is stored as a video, which also includes the distance and the climbing angle, possibly also the sound of the environment is stored. The screen 13 advantageously has a touch-sensitive screen so that desired programs, e.g. the route, levels of difficulty, view of the route, can be entered directly on the screen 13 and also includes the data layout which is e.g. always or intermittently the speed, the altitude, the current position on the route, the angle, up to the pulse rate, calorie consumption, etc. indicates. Also, the screen 13 may display a text indicative of the training history or sights on the route. For this purpose, sufficient physical space for the trainee T must be in order to be able to complete his climbing exercise unhindered on the one hand and on the other hand also sufficient and pleasant view of the climbing route to have space for the screen 13.

The solution is to install a shortened endless treadmill 2a in the climbing band 1, which moves as fast as the toothed belt 45 which is fixed to the upper toothed disc 44 and the lower toothed disc 43 and has the same diameter as the first cylindrical roller 3. The toothed belt 45 is guided and held in position by means of the lower slide rail 46, as well as the upper slide rail 47, which are both attached to the chassis 10, not shown here. On the toothed belt 45, the spacer 7 is mounted, which is short in order, in this way, no high torque to the toothed belt 45, respectively. to trigger on the upper slide rail 47 and lower slide rail 46. By means of band deflection rollers 48, a distance S between the rung 8 and the shortened endless belt 2a, which also has a correspondingly long base plate 6, is generated. It is advantageous that the feet when climbing the rungs 8 there is a barrier, so that the foot of the exerciser T can never be trapped by the sprouts 8 of the underlying, retrograde running rungs 8. The likelihood is great that the foot comes into contact with the barrier and therefore this part runs synchronously, be it in terms of pleasant support, it is no creaking of the soles of the shoe to hear, it is to consciously be supported on the endless belt 2a.

The shortened endless belt 2a practically stops where the screen 13 begins and this is offset to the rear to produce a greater distance to the exerciser T. The screen 13 is fastened to the chassis 10. In this way, the exerciser T can never collide with the screen 13 with his hands, but must consciously want to touch the screen 13, e.g. to retrieve another screen or related information. Command buttons can also be attached to the chassis 10 outside of the rungs 8. The controller 12, which has stored the software, can thus, depending on the equipment of the climbing tape device 1 according to the climbing speed of the exerciser T, this with the camera 11, for example. in the form of a face recognition software, always keep in a desired video square by the brake 5a is released or tightened accordingly. On the screen 13 is e.g. to recognize a mountain to climb it, which is previously activated from the software, which has a database of climbing routes. This by means of or without time measurement, wherein the slope of the mountain is modeled at the angle of the inclination N of the climbing part K. Overhanging mountain walls are only with a mild overhang of e.g. Max. 15 ° imitated, so that the exerciser T with his feet on the sprouts 8 almost always finds support. Rockfall with falling rocks or triggering an avalanche can be simulated by activating an unbalance motor 26, which playfully strengthens the deeper muscle fibers. Instead of climbing a mountain climbing a rope ladder in the jungle can be simulated and the rocking of the ropes is also transferred by means of the actuation of the actuating cylinder 9 on the climbing part K. The controller 12 compares the actual values with the desired parameters and thus controls the climbing tape device 1 with respect to braking effect and inclination adjustment N with the existing input data: the face recognition or the position detection of the exercising T leads to a greater or lesser braking effect in the case of a deviation from the desired value. The slope of the climbing route is the actuating cylinder 9, respectively. the hydraulic unit or actuator, not shown here, driven with the command a larger or smaller pitch, which is fed back from the stroke sensor 49 to the controller 12 and so permanently takes place an actual / nominal adjustment. The odometer 34 is used to influence the frame rate of the video, so that when climbing faster, the mountain scenes run faster and vice versa and the data also serve as a part of calculating the calorie consumption and the like. If the exerciser T can no longer hold on or slips out of the square of the picture board, the brake 5a becomes immediately active, likewise when the contact strip 50 on the partial cover 51 is touched, as well as upon entering the contact mat M, which can also be a type of mattress and a Emergency stop ensures immediate stopping of sprouts 8.

Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments shown and described.
