DE102019003894A1 - Training device for exercising all major muscle groups based on the effort exerted by the athlete by overcoming friction - Google Patents

Abstract

The training device was developed to train all main muscle groups, it is very space-saving, works without weight plates and the risk of injury, is noiseless and is efficient in terms of training time. Due to the small diameter of the wall bracket 1 and base body 3, only 20cm space is required the compression spring 10, which can be tightened by the star grip 8 with a threaded screw, an axial deep groove ball bearing 5, the base body 3 and a plastic disc 2, a frictional resistance is generated which can be overcome by applying force via the power arm 7, which is attached to the base body 3 can. A training effect is achieved without weight discs and noises.In addition, there is no uncontrolled falling of bars, weights or the like, as is the case with conventional training equipment, since the base body only rotates when force is applied. The force to be applied can be achieved by the compression spring 10 and the star grip A force must be applied in each direction of movement of the force arm 7 in order to overcome the pressure from the plastic disc 2 on the wall bracket 1. Agonist and antagonist are trained simultaneously in one exercise. The training device is used in muscle building, strengthening of the muscles, definition of the muscles but also in preventive training. It is mostly used as a home trainer, in gyms or offices

Description

Fitness equipment for building, improving and strengthening muscles is widely known in the gym and in private use. Many different modes of action, methods and areas of application can be identified, such as training on cable pulls, pulling or pressing weight plates or working on state-of-the-art hydraulic stations.

The shortcomings of such fitness devices are as follows: A main problem is that only one main muscle group can be trained with a training device, for example, with a device for the lat pulldown, only the latissimus dorsi (large back muscle) is trained. Combination training for agonists and antagonists is not guaranteed. Such a training level has so far only been possible with hydraulic stations, whereby only one muscle group can be recorded here, such as biceps and triceps (arm muscles)
There are large multi-gyms that can cover every muscle group, but these are very large and take up a lot of space.
Furthermore, many fitness equipment in fitness studios or in private facilities (home trainers) are very noisy, as history is often used, which also represents a greater risk of injury.

1. a) keinen großflächigen Platz benötigt,
2. b) ohne Gewichtscheiben arbeitet (Geräuschlos und kein Verletzungsrisiko)
3. c) und flexibel einsetzbar ist, sodass ein einziges Trainingsgerät alle Hauptmuskelgruppen gezielt ansprechen kann.

The object of the submitted invention was to eliminate the shortcomings / disadvantages of the prior art and to develop a training device that

1. a) does not require a large area,
2. b) works without weight plates (noiseless and no risk of injury)
3. c) and can be used flexibly, so that a single training device can target all major muscle groups.

The technical solution for the task is met by the claims mentioned.

The training device according to the invention comprises the following main components and sub-components, which are installed for a stable mechanical structure and the development of force for a training effect:

Main components:

Wall bracket ( 1 ), Plastic washer ( 2 ), Base body ( 3 ), Collar ( 4th ) and power arm ( 7th ) Sub-components:

Two star handles (8, 11), centering disc ( 9 ), Compression spring ( 10 ), Cover cap ( 6th ), Axial deep groove ball bearings ( 5 ) two handles ( 12 ).

The components and effects of the training device according to the invention are shown in more detail in the exemplary embodiment

• 2 zeigt das Trainingsgerät in seiner zusammengebauten Form
• 3 zeigt das Trainingsgerät ohne Kraftarm um den Platzanspruch nach dem Training darzustellen
• 4 zeigt das Trainingsgerät mit Kraftarm parallel zur Wand nach dem Training um zu zeigen wie sich das Trainingsgerät in den Wohnraum oder Trainingsplatz integriert vor oder nach dem Training

For the representation of the exact embodiment, reference should be made to the figures / drawings.
The drawings are exploded views and models that correspond to the finished and functioning prototype.

• 1 shows the individual components in their arrangement
• 2 shows the training device in its assembled form
• 3 shows the training device without a power arm to show the space required after training
• 4th shows the training device with the power arm parallel to the wall after training to show how the training device can be integrated into the living room or training area before or after training

In the embodiment, the wall bracket 1 Mounted on the wall at approximately shoulder height using four screws and 4 corresponding wall plugs. On the wall bracket 1 becomes the plastic disc 2 placed on top of the base body 3 .
To the main body 3 all other components can now be added.
On the one hand the power arm 7th the one by the star grip 11 is fixed.
Likewise the compression spring 10 and the axial deep groove ball bearing 5 , which also have a star grip 8th engages in the thread.

By tightening the stem handle 8th is now the pressure of the compression spring 10 on the main body 3 increases and this becomes harder on the plastic disc 2 pressed. (Note: In the case of commercialization, the training device comes, of course, assembled to the customer and not in individual sub-components.)

If the user grabs the training device by the power arm 7th and if it moves it up or down, the base body rotates 3 on the plastic disc 2 .
This rotation is caused by permanent friction from the base body 3 on plastic disc 2 accompanied, which is why the athlete exerts an effort to overcome the friction. This takes place at any time and regardless of the direction of movement.
Speaking, pressing and pulling the power arm each achieve a training effect on agonists and antagonists of the muscle group addressed.
By loosening or tightening the star grip 8th the expenditure of force is defined for various training methods, such as hypertrophy training to build up muscles or high-interval training to strengthen the muscles.

Here I would like to go into a specific exercise again to illustrate how the training device is used. Here we want to train the shoulder muscle and the back muscle. Here, reference to the 2 be taken

The training device is installed and ready to use.
The training person stands shoulder-width apart parallel to the ready-to-use power arm 7th .
The compression spring should be turned firmly in order to generate a corresponding effort.
The training person grabs the power arm 7th at head height and can now move the power arm upwards by pressing.
Due to the friction existing in [0009], the athlete has to use force around the force arm 7th to move upwards and rotate the main body. This trains the shoulder muscle.
The training person's arms are now stretched out and they can pull the power arm back again and have to use some force again. When you pull back, the back muscles are trained.
So we have combined the two opposing muscles in one form of training.

• 1. Bizeps und Trizeps
• 2. Schulter und Latisimus
• 3.Pectoralis major und Trapezmuskel
• 4. Bauch und unterer Rücken
• 5. lateral raise seitlicher Rücken
• 6. Beine

The following muscle groups can be trained with the training device, always at the same time as the muscle opponent

• 1. Biceps and Triceps
• 2. Shoulder and Latisimus
• 3. Pectoralis major and trapezius muscle
• 4. Belly and lower back
• 5. lateral raise lateral back
• 6. Legs

To train all these muscle groups, with the current state of the art, either large multi-gyms or several training devices are required.
With the submitted invention, all these muscle groups can be trained with a single and, above all, very small training device.

If the training device is not being used for training, it only takes up a size of 20 cm (mounted base body) because the power arm 7th can be easily removed. Please refer 3

Do you want the power arm 7th After training, do not take it off and stow it away elsewhere, you can easily use the star grip 11 Loosen it and turn it by 90 ° to insert it again, then the power arm is parallel to the wall. Please refer 4th

Through the description and performance of the embodiment, the invention presented here achieves a wide variety of advantages that are ahead of the prior art. Training with this training device enables all main muscle groups to be trained with a single device. During the training, the training is completely silent as no weight plates are used. In addition, the training device only takes up 20 cm of space due to the main body 3 is defined.
A decisive advantage of the present invention is the efficiency of the training achieved. By doing that in every moving direction (pulling and pushing) of the power arm 7th A targeted effort must be made, the agonist and antagonist are always trained at the same time with each movement. Finally, the invented training device can be used without the risk of training injuries, as it never leads to uncontrolled forces.
If the athlete lets go of the power arm during an exercise, it stops immediately. This eliminates the risk of injury.
