Definitions

  • the present invention relates to physical training or motor rehabilitation devices allowing, depending on the progress made or the desired objective, to increase or decrease the work power provided during the effort, of the type as described in the first Part of claim 1.
  • the exerciser is made up either of helical tension springs or return bungee cords or of suspended loads (US-A-3918710).
  • such devices make it necessary to overcome the elastic resistance in an effort which is difficult to measure, in the second case to have a device for loads selected by pins (US-A-3614097) which is difficult to incorporate into a device of small size.
  • the invention consists, among other things, of an apparatus whose innovation consists in using a normal Swedish wall bars 1 to which vertical posts 2 are added doubling the posts 3 on which the horizontal bars of bars 4 are fixed, these double uprights 2 are fixed so that a space is made with the uprights of the wall bars to form a guide housing 5 in which a counterweight slides vertically.
  • the uprights on the inside faces of the guide housing are slightly hollowed out 6 in order to guide the counterweight and to prevent it from escaping during vertical movement.
  • Said guide housing can receive several types of counterweight, in particular a loadable counterweight or a counterweight with progressive loads.
  • the loadable counterweight 7 consists of a box 8 open on the front end face, the bottom 9 at the bottom is inclined with a slope of 30% inwards so that the load 10 in the form of a diamond-shaped parallelepiped having itself an angle with a slope of 30% which is incorporated in the housing 11 of the counterweight 7 is blocked and cannot escape during the vertical movement of the counterweight.
  • the loads 10 stack on top of each other by self-locking without having to use other fixing or blocking systems and are easily removed by tilting at the touch of the top of the load fig. 5.
  • the counterweight with progressive loads fig. 6. consists of a set of rectangular parallelepipedic loads 12 secured to each other by a strap 13. This strap 13 is fixed on the short sides of the load 12 and the length of the strap between two fixings is such that it forms a loop 14 when the counterweight is not stressed.
  • the device comprises a means making it possible to prevent the loads from colliding when the traction on the rope is released consisting of cellular rubber dampers 16 in order to avoid noise and make the operation silent.
  • the device can receive either loadable counterweights or progressive load counterweights.
  • the counterweights are connected to a rope 17 which passes over a pulley 18 fixed in the upper part of the wall bar, the end of the rope ends in a carabiner 19 - on this carabiner can be directly connected either a handle 20 or a bar 21 connecting the two carabiners to allow traction movements to be carried out from top to bottom - to allow traction or repulsion movements to be carried out from bottom to top there is an extension of rope 22, one end of which ends in a loop 23 and the other by a carabiner 19 on which the accessories mentioned above can be attached.
  • This extension cord passes in the lower part of the device in a retractable pulley 24.
  • the device also has a board 25 which can be used either as an inclined plane or as a horizontal bench thanks to a folding foot.
  • This board has on each side a longitudinal hollow groove 26 intended to receive a movable seat 27.
  • This movable seat comprises four castors whose fixing is such that it makes it possible to fix the seat on the bars of espalier for engagement thus allowing get a backsplash and also the storage position.
