Description

scaffold-like, gymnastics device "The invention relates to a scaffold-like Gymnastics equipment: There are a number of gymnastics equipment known, with or on which in particular Gymnastics exercises can also be carried out in the apartment. So there are a number of expander devices D cycling devices, including cycling devices that can be operated in the supine position and rowing machines.

With all these well-known gymnastic devices you can only each. - certain Body and muscle parts are stressed and trained. This is an essential one Disadvantage of the known: devices. Furthermore, the known gymnastics equipment.

- apart from the expander devices - relatively expensive because they are essentially are modeled on natural rowing boats or bicycles.

In this prior art, the invention is based on the object to create a universal $ simply constructed gymnastics device with which all parts of the body or muscle parts operated and thereby stressed by adjustable resistances can be. According to the invention, this object is achieved by » that a sitting or reclining board at one end to a horizontal 'across to its longitudinal axis pivotably mounted and on its other End height adjustable on two side supports can be attached to their lower 'Ends pivoted and at their upper ends by a horizontal bar are connected to each other on the eyelets or hooks for attaching expander strands are provided.

First, you can do a number of floor exercises on the deck be performed. The side supports with the abexss them on their upper ends connecting horizontal bar serve as a stretching bar on which further exercises are carried out can be. In particular, the abdominal and chest muscles can be stressed will. The level of difficulty: these exercises can be adjusted by adjusting the incline of the sitting or lying board is changed.

Another group of exercises results from the fact that expander strands are attached to the hooks or nozzles of the horizontal bar. Apart from normal expander exercises, rowing exercises or paddling exercises can now be carried out on the device. For this purpose, the gymnast either sits with his face to the horizontal bar or with his face turned away from it and operates two groups of expander strands with one hand each, whereby he either tensions or relaxes both groups of expander strands at the same time or one arm in opposite directions Group of expander strands tenses and relaxes the other at the same time. By correspondingly walking with the upper body, he includes other muscle groups in the training. The level of difficulty of the exercises can be changed by the number of expander strings that are attached at the same time as well as by the incline of the board: Instead of using the hands or arms, the gymnast can also operate the expander strings with his legs or feet ... by stepping into the expander handles and Now tension the expander belts in the same direction or in the opposite direction and relax. The same muscle groups can thus be trained with the device according to the invention as with a known cycling device.

ZurNerbesserung this training are at any point of Li = egebrettes horizontal transversely to its longitudinal direction axes of rotation anbringbarg the two frames are pivotally "each having a longitudinally adjustable pedals tips are provided at their upper ends thereof and hook for attaching the Bxpanderstränge.

To train the leg muscles, the gymnast brings this frame, which can be `` swiveled '' on the deck and now steps in the = supine position lying on the deck into the pedals »while he tensions and relaxes the: -expander belts. As All muscles can be seen with the device according to the invention train with freely adjustable intensity. So far are-for-the-same-s Training possibilities various devices, namely horizontal bar 'expander' bicycle and Rowing machines, required. This already shows the great economic efficiency of the device according to the invention. But the economy of this device is special even increased by it '. that there is a multitude of training options there are only surprisingly few components.

In a further embodiment of the invention, these components are now namely the support frame for the board, the side supports) the leg frames and so on made of L-profile rods that are perforated at regular intervals. This means that only profile rods of the appropriate thickness and length need to be connected to one another to produce the device. The connection can be made in the simplest way by means of screws and, if necessary, gusset plates. When the device is not in use wifdf it can # flat into a Level to be collapsed) so that there is very little Takes up space , #orteilhaft are the-horizontal axes -the deck b retted -. -and the side supports on a horizontal base frame stored. This gives the device a : solid) inherent stiffness Base. But you could also connect the axes of rotation of the deck and the side supports on separate support plates that are only connected to one another by a pulling cable.

Further essential advantages and features of the invention result from the description of an exemplary embodiment with reference to the drawing.

Fig. 1 shows in perspective the embodiment in the operating position when the expander straps are attached. Fig: '2 shows the same device with mounted Frame for training the legs.

Fig. 3 shows the device out of operation in the folded position.

The gymnastics equipment is mounted on a base frame l resting on the earth or floor. The base frame 1 consists essentially of two lateral longitudinal struts 29, a front cross strut 3 and a rear cross strut 4. A seating or reclining board 6 is articulated on the rear cross strut Q. by means of hinges 5. The deck 6 in turn consists of a frame 7 formed from longitudinal and transverse struts which carries a preferably padded board or mat. On the front cross strut 3 of the frame 1 are means hingedy Hinges ß two lateral supports 4r'on which the frame 7. the deck 6 adjustable in height enbrinabar int upper end are the supports .g by a horizontal Steg-10 connected to each other on the two groups of Expander strands 1.1 are posted. According to Fig. L are the expander straps are located at each of the webs 10 away attached to expander handles 12 operated by the gymnast. The gymnast can; the horizontal web 10 but also as a stretching Use the bar for appropriate exercises. There are two in particular for training leg aculature Frame 13 can be attached to the deck 6, which pedals 14 wear and at their upper ends with eyelets for the end stop Bxpandergurt.e 1-1 are provided. For the pivotable connection of the frame 13 with the bed board 6 serves a transverse board placed on the board 6 web 15, which by means of around the underside of the board led belt 16 on the; Board is locked. the Frame 13 are by means of hinges or joints on the Cross web 15 articulated. The frames 1 '7' 139 the side supports 9 ' the pedals 14 as well as the cross webs 10 and 1.5 are made of simple angular profiles formed., dl.e at regular intervals with holes, preferably elongated holes 179 are provided. This results in apart from the weight saving, it is extremely safe easy installation, and Einstdllbarket of Geräten® to ASSEMBLY of the device only need the bars cut to length. by means of drill bolts and, if necessary, e iüa. @ st - :. with- eiusader to be connected . The Menlage-tes D "t" ig 6r The position of the pedals: 14 in relation to the frame 13 and the position of the frame 13 in relation to the board 6 can be adjusted in a simple manner, since these parts only need to be adjusted by one or more holes. At the perforations of the horizontal bar 10 any number of expander strands 11 can be attached.

The invention is susceptible of various modifications. For example The edge of the device is designed as a tubular construction. The side supports 9 and the longitudinal struts of the frame 13 can be telescoped into one another Be formed tubes. Instead of the two longitudinal struts of the frame r for the board 6 a single central strut can also be provided. The two longitudinal struts could also 2 of the base frame 1 with one another by a single strut or even just by a pull rope be connected.
