Abstract

walking and running sports equipment as a variable management assistance to arms swinging, especially during fast walking, consisting from a bar (1) with support cushion (2), drawbar points (3), Trains (4) and handles (5), characterized in that the rod (1) is connected to the Padding (2) in length is dimensioned so that the Zugpendelpunkte (3) lie outside the Schulterachseln.

Description

The The invention relates to a walking and running sports equipment as a variable guide to swing arms, in particular, during fast walking. she consists essentially a bar with padding, drawbar points, Trains and Handles.

Known walking and running equipment, ( US 4337 938 ) DE 37 08 567 C2 ) U.S. 4,993,705 ) US 7 147 590 B2 ), have cable guides for swinging the arms. If these devices are used in particular for rapid walking in the required manner, cause unfavorably placed Zugpendelpunkte inhibiting lateral tensile forces. The devices are also bulky for use and transportation.

task The present invention is a simple walking and running sports equipment as a variable guide to create arms swinging, especially during fast walking. This is a Armschwingung sideways on the hips over, Seitenzugfrei feasible be. The support on shoulder and back should be variable can. The Raising the forearms should be at different or adjustable handle heights allows become.

According to the invention this Task solved by that one over the shoulder axles extending flexurally elastic and padded rod is used. At both ends of the bar are draw pendulum points educated. Trains are equipped with sliding handles which are secured in height can be.

With The invention is achieved that the trains due to the outside the shoulder axles arranged Zugpendelpunkte, oscillate Seitenzugfrei can. The characteristic arm vibration, especially in the fast Walking at the hips over, is possible. The reciprocal swinging rhythm of the arms with the feet arises when using the invented guide always by itself.

With the invented guide can strengthen free swinging of the arms are made. It also allows variable Rest on shoulder and back to work off emerging tensions. The constant rhythmic Swinging with raised forearms mobilize endurance personnel especially when walking fast.

A Embodiment of the invention provides that at different Grip levels during of use higher or lower can be used to vary arm swings too can and to compensate for one-sided burdens. Here, the basic height of the grip levels through a lower clamping piece on the trains be set. Due to the arrangement and shape of the handles will The natural Hand position in running and walking sports, with thumbs up, complied.

The Device can be especially when walking fast variable on shoulder and back place to meet individual needs. Differently generated pulling forces give corresponding contact pressure.

The Device can at any time except Be taken without having to take it off the shoulder. to Can fuse trains be hooked in front of the chest.

A further embodiment of the invention especially for running looks before that the rod with the padding on the outerwear in the shoulder area with detachable Closing means, preferably Velcro, is attached.

A Further advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that the rod is divided with the support cushion in the middle. The division becomes positive held together and can be solved by hand, so that the rod cheap in two parts that are half as long can be transported. For larger shoulder lengths can the central division can be used to the rod with padding through spacers to extend.

The device configuration is very simple and has little weight. Wearing is imperceptible. Use, stowage and transport are very handy. The device in collapsed Shape easily fits into any bag.

An embodiment of the invention will be described with reference to 1 to 4 explained. Show it:

1 a schematic view of Geh u. Running sports equipment when used for fast walking.

2 a schematic compilation of Geh- u. Running device.

3 a perspective view of the clamping piece.

4 a cross section of the rod with pad.

In the 1 + 2 is the walking and running equipment with rod ( 1 ), Padding pads ( 2 ), Trains ( 4 ) and handles ( 5 ). For the trains ( 4 ) Lines are used in the embodiment.

The rod ( 1 ) is continuous with a firmly connected pad ( 2 ) fitted. At the ends of the rod ( 1 ) are draw pendulum points ( 3 ) for the trains ( 4 ) educated. Trains ( 4 ) are equipped with safety hooks ( 7 ) into the drawbar points ( 3 ).

Trains ( 4 ) are with sliding handles ( 5 ) equipped. When using multiple handles ( 5 ) as shown in the embodiment, the handles ( 5 ) held in the step spacing with attached spacers. The basic height of the handles ( 5 ) by clamping pieces ( 6 ), consisting of a take-up reel with Verklemmungsschlitzen set.

For hooking in the trains ( 4 ) when the device is taken out of service via a handle ( 5 ) a safety hook ( 8th ) appropriate.

3 shows the clamping piece ( 6 ) with take-up spool and the deadlock slots when using cords for the trains ( 4 ).

4 shows the staff ( 1 ) and the pad ( 2 ) in cross section.

Claims (9)
