Abstract

The device (1) has an elongated hollow body (2) i.e. pipe, with a centrifugal body (4) formed as a centrifugal mass, where the centrifugal body is elastically supported or suspended at a side. The centrifugal body is movably supported between elastic elements (5) e.g. compression or tension springs and rubber or rubber-like elements. The centrifugal body is moved back and forth in a handle sleeve, and a longitudinal slot is provided in the centrifugal body, where the sleeve is connected with a movable stop that is arranged between the elastic elements.

Description

Sports- u. training equipment are in many designs available z. B. be for Training purposes often used dumbbells, vibrating bars and stationary exercise equipment. For reasons of space become small devices often preferred. The invention has the task dedicated to a handy exerciser to develop without big Space requirements many training options offers.

This was inventively characterized achieved that Sports equipment essentially of an elongated one hollow body exists by a vibrating body (Weight) are moved back and forth against the action of spring forces got to.

By continuous force pulses z. B. hin- u. moving the sports equipment, the emanating from the trainee, the vibrating body is in the Hin u. float of the sports equipment moving from one side to the other side.

By These force pulses arise in the suspension area a reciprocal Position energy that is swinging free again.

By Drive u. Braking impulses of the trainee are hereby easy Depending on the handling, different muscle groups, joints and Tendons are stressed and exercised by placing the sports equipment in horizontal, vertical or other arbitrary inclinations with one or both hands with alternating posture more or less powerfully moved back and forth.

When Spring elements are pressure or tension spring or rubber-elastic elements intended.

It is also conceivable preferably in small sports equipment according to the invention Sports equipment to be provided with a magnetic suspension by z. B. the vibrating body a magnetic body consists of one side plus pole against another in the end area of the sports equipment located magnet with plus pole is present and other side Minus pole is mounted against minus pole.

It is possible, too the sports equipment to be provided with a pneumatic suspension.

at this; but also in other versions is thought of possibly the vibrating body on a guide rail to move.

A advantageous embodiment of the vibrating body is this as elongated hollow body (eg tube) with central partition wall for locking the spring elements train. The tubular Training of the oscillating body allows the use of elastic elements in optimal length and causes a wide vibration path of the vibrating body. Because of the long Spring elements (polymers) affects the tension and relaxation Relaxation cheap on the function of the sports equipment and causes a pleasant workout experience for the user.

Around an optimal training opportunity to reach is the weight of the vibrating body, and is the force of Feathers adapted to the size of the sports equipment.

It are also versions possible have the unilateral or double-sided adjustment, the tension or relax the spring elements, so for the trainee the possibility consists of training with more or less effort.

The Regulation of the vibrations is also through adjustable air flow openings in the oscillating body and or on the hollow body to reach.

to Optimal versatile handling is the sports equipment with adjustable Hand grips, straps and or grip areas provided. There are too Coupling elements on the sports equipment provided by several sports equipment with each other connect to.

to better exercise control, the sports equipment with optical and or acoustic Be provided signaling devices that z. B. a certain vibration frequency signal. The signals are z. B. by air flow or generated electronically.

It is also thought of a vibration meter and or power meter preferably to integrate electronically operated.

It is also conceivable that the Sports equipment is at least partially transparent to z. B. a color-coded oscillating body at certain vibration intensity for the trainee for training control to make visible at predetermined locations.

Another possible training of sports equipment ( 1 ) is that the oscillating body ( 4 ) is resiliently suspended or mounted on one side, and the oscillating force is variable by exchangeable or additional oscillating body or spring elements.

The sports equipment can also be designed such that, for example, the oscillating body consists of a weighted tube, that of a grip sleeve is surrounded in which the oscillating body against spring force is moved back and forth.

Generally is provided that the oscillating body is directly connected to the spring element or a free space available is in which the vibrating body is loosely moved back and forth, but cushioned in the end becomes.

In the said sports equipment can There may also be several different vibrating bodies then are mounted between spring elements, and are interchangeable.

Further design options are in the claims mentioned and or explained by drawings.

2 shows the interior view of a possible embodiment of the sports equipment ( 1 ). Here is the vibrating body ( 4 ) between two elastic elements ( 5 ) (Springs) stored. By actuating the adjusting device ( 14 ), the spring force is changeable. Dr vibrating body ( 4 ) and spring ( 5 ) are in the inner tube ( 2 ) on a slide / guide rod ( 10 ) guided.

3 shows the external view of an embodiment of the sports equipment ( 1 ) in which the vibrating body ( 4 ) visible in a grip sleeve ( 15 ) emotional.

4 shows the inside view of 3 , The middle partition ( 9 ) between the spring elements ( 5 ) is with a pin with the grip sleeve ( 15 ) connected. In a longitudinal slot ( 13 ) the movement of the oscillating body ( 4 ) guaranteed.

5 shows the outside view of a possible embodiment of 6 ,

6 shows the interior view of a possible embodiment of the sports equipment ( 1 ) with tensioning device ( 14 ) of the spring elements ( 5 ). By turning the adjustment ( 14 ) by means of left u. Right-hand thread the end limits ( 3 ) of the spring elements ( 5 ) are moved toward or away from each other. Here it is possible the spring elements ( 5 ) also with clearance to the vibrating body ( 4 ) and to the end areas ( 3 ) loose on the rod guide ( 10 ) to place.

7 shows in a very simplified representation of an embodiment that by rotation of a spring element z. B. a tension or compression spring, the clamping or compressive force is variable. There are provided detents which are not shown in the drawing.

8th shows a possible embodiment of the sports equipment ( 1 ) in which the elastic elements ( 5 ) consist of an elastic rubber cord.

9 shows a possible embodiment of the strong magnets for buffering the Hin u u. Movement of the oscillating body ( 4 ) are placed in the appropriate place.

10 shows a highly simplified representation of an embodiment of the sports equipment ( 1 ) that are designed as a dumbbell with attachable weights as rolling wheels.

11 + 12 show a possible embodiment of the sports equipment ( 1 ) with adjustable holding devices ( 11 ).
