Description

A l'entraînement, en boxe par exemple, les sportifs utilisent soit les services d'un entraîneur (sparing partenaire) soit un mannequin, le plus souvent rudimentaire- ment constitué par une sorte de sac suspendu à hauteur d'homme. Ce mannequin présente plusieurs inconvénients dont celui de n'offrir au sportif qu'un petit nombre de réactions.In training, in boxing for example, athletes use either the services of a trainer (partner sparing) or a mannequin, most often roughly made up of a sort of bag hanging at breast height. This model has several disadvantages including that of offering the sportsman only a small number of reactions.

La présente invention entend proposer un nouveau mannequin de conception simple et robuste pour résister aux coups qu'il doit subir tout en permettant de reproduire la plupart des attitudes d'un combattant et de réagir de manière à simuler de très près les effets dynamiques d'un combat.The present invention intends to propose a new mannequin of simple and robust design to resist the blows which it must undergo while making it possible to reproduce most of the attitudes of a combatant and to react so as to simulate very closely the dynamic effects of a fight.

A cet effet l'invention a pour objet un mannequin pour l'entraînement aux sports de combat comportant au moins un buste et une tête. Selon l'une des caractéristiques principales de l'invention,le buste comporte un élément d'armature longitudinal pourvu à sa partie supérieure, à la hauteur des omoplates, d'une platine transversale, ledit élément d'armature coopérant avec un support qui comprend :

  • - un fourreau tubulaire monté à rotation autour d'un élément vertical de fixation du support sur une structure fixe,
  • - une jambe de soutien coudée dont une extrémité coopère avec la partie inférieure dudit élément d'armature, et dont l'autre extrémité est articulée à la partie inférieure du fourreau autour de deux axes perpendiculaires entre eux et perpendiculaires à l'axe de rotation du fourreau,
  • - et un dispositif élastique attelé entre la partie supérieure du fourreau et la platine susdite dont l'effet tend à écarter la partie supérieure de l'élément d'armature dudit fourreau.
To this end the invention relates to a manikin for training in combat sports comprising at least one bust and one head. According to one of the main characteristics of the invention, the bust has a longitudinal reinforcing element provided at its upper part, at the height of the shoulder blades, with a transverse plate, said reinforcing element cooperating with a support which comprises :
  • - a tubular sheath rotatably mounted around a vertical element for fixing the support to a fixed structure,
  • - a bent support leg, one end of which cooperates with the lower part of said reinforcing element, and the other end of which is articulated to the lower part of the sheath around two axes perpendicular to each other and perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the scabbard,
  • - And an elastic device coupled between the upper part of the sheath and the aforementioned plate whose effect tends to spread the upper part of the frame member of said sheath.

En outre, ledit fourreau comporte un moyen de réglage de sa position le long de l'élément vertical de fixation ainsi qu'un moyen de freinage réglable de sa rotation autour dudit élément de fixation vertical.In addition, said sheath comprises a means for adjusting its position along the vertical fixing element as well as an adjustable braking means for its rota tion around said vertical fastening element.

Par son articulation, qui peut avoir un équivalent sous la forme d'une rotule, la jambe de soutien peut débattre dans un plan vertical contre l'organe élastique donc en se rapprochant et s'éloignant de la verticale, le mannequin voyant ainsi son inclinaison modifiée sous l'effet des coups. Elle peut également débattre dans un plan perpendiculaire au plan de débattement susdit en étant également rappelée par le dispositif élastique travaillant plutôt en "cisaillement". Elle peut enfin tourner autour de l'élément de fixation vertical. Ces trois degrés de libertés tous contrôlés soit par le réglage de la friction des articulations soit par l'organe élastique permettent au mannequin de réagir, sous l'effet des coups d'une manière assez semblable à celle d'un adversaire.By its articulation, which can have an equivalent in the form of a ball joint, the support leg can debate in a vertical plane against the elastic member therefore while approaching and moving away from the vertical, the mannequin thus seeing its inclination changed as a result of blows. It can also be discussed in a plane perpendicular to the above-mentioned travel plane, being also recalled by the elastic device working rather in "shear". Finally, it can rotate around the vertical fixing element. These three degrees of freedom, all controlled either by adjusting the friction of the joints or by the elastic member, allow the dummy to react, under the effect of blows, in a manner quite similar to that of an adversary.

Le débattement vertical du mannequin sous l'effet dudit organe élastique est limité par une butée qui définit l'inclinaison maximale que peut prendre le mannequin.The vertical movement of the mannequin under the effect of said elastic member is limited by a stop which defines the maximum inclination that the mannequin can take.

Il sera par ailleurs avantageux que l'élément d'armature soit monté à coulissement à l'extrémité de ladite jambe de soutien sur laquelle il porte sous l'effet du poids du mannequin- Cela permet au mannequin d'encaisser des coups du genre uppercut.It will also be advantageous for the reinforcing element to be slidably mounted at the end of said support leg on which it bears under the effect of the weight of the mannequin. This allows the mannequin to take strokes of the uppercut type. .

Enfin, la tête peut être séparable du buste et y être attelée dans différentes orientations de préférence indexées.Finally, the head can be separable from the bust and be harnessed to it in different orientations, preferably indexed.

L'invention sera mieux comprise au cours de la description donnée ci-après à titre d'exemple purement indicatif et non limitatif qui permettra d'en dégager les avantages et les caractéristiques secondaires.The invention will be better understood during the description given below by way of purely indicative and nonlimiting example which will make it possible to identify the advantages and the secondary characteristics thereof.

Il sera fait référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • - la figure 1 est une vue de principe illustrant les dispositions générales de l'invention,
  • - la figure 2 illustre par un schéma une variante de réalisation du mannequin selon l'invention.
Reference will be made to the appended drawings in which:
  • FIG. 1 is a principle view illustrating the general arrangements of the invention,
  • - Figure 2 illustrates by a diagram an alternative embodiment of the mannequin according to the invention.

En se reportant tout d'abord à la figure 1 on voit que le mannequin de l'invention comprend une tête 1 et un buste 2 représentés ici de manière schématique et séparés l'un de l'autre. Le buste 2 est pourvu d'une armature dorsale constituée par un tube 3 équipé à la hauteur des omoplates environ d'une platine arrière 4.Referring first to Figure 1 we see that the dummy of the invention comprises a head 1 and a bust 2 shown here schematically and separated from each other. The bust 2 is provided with a dorsal frame constituted by a tube 3 fitted at the height of the shoulder blades approximately with a rear plate 4.

La partie inférieure 3a du tube est enfilée sur l'extrémité d'un support qui, dans sa position de repos, est inclinée par rapport à la verticale pour placer le mannequin comme représenté sur la figure, c'est-à-dire dans une position voisine de celle adoptée par un adversaire de combat (environ 5 degrés).The lower part 3a of the tube is threaded onto the end of a support which, in its rest position, is inclined relative to the vertical to place the manikin as shown in the figure, that is to say in a position close to that adopted by a combat adversary (approximately 5 degrees).

Le support du mannequin est donc constitué par un fourreau tubulaire 5 monté à rotation sur un élément vertical de fixation 6. Ce fourreau est équipé à sa partie supérieure d'un dispositif de freinage 7 de sa rotation sur l'élément 6. Ce dernier peut notamment être constitué par un collier pourvu d'une garniture de friction enserrant l'élément 6 et solidaire du fourreau 5. Un serrage plus ou moins énergique du collier constitue le moyen de réglage du freinage de la rotation.The manikin support is therefore constituted by a tubular sheath 5 rotatably mounted on a vertical fixing element 6. This sheath is equipped at its upper part with a braking device 7 for its rotation on the element 6. The latter can in particular be constituted by a collar provided with a friction lining enclosing the element 6 and integral with the sheath 5. A more or less forceful tightening of the collar constitutes the means for adjusting the braking of the rotation.

A sa partie inférieure, le fourreau 5, comporte un mécanisme d'articulation de l'extrémité 8a d'une jambe de soutien coudée 8 du mannequin. Ce mécanisme d'articulation comprend une chape 9 dont un élément 9a est solidaire du fourreau 5 tandis que son élément 9b y est articulé autour d'un axe 10 horizontal. L'élément 9b reçoit par ailleurs à rotation autour d'un axe horizontal 11 la partie 8a susdite. Une plaque de butée 12 solidaire de l'élément 9b limite le débattement de la jambe de soutien 8 autour de l'axe 10 à une valeur fixe correspondant à l'inclinaison, au repos, du mannequin par rapport à la direction verticale (5 degrés).At its lower part, the sheath 5, comprises a mechanism for articulating the end 8a of a bent support leg 8 of the mannequin. This articulation mechanism comprises a yoke 9, an element 9a of which is integral with the sheath 5 while its element 9b is articulated thereon around a horizontal axis 10. The element 9b also receives in rotation about a horizontal axis 11 the aforementioned part 8a. A stop plate 12 integral with the element 9b limits the movement of the support leg 8 around the axis 10 to a fixed value corresponding to the inclination, at rest, of the mannequin relative to the vertical direction (5 degrees ).

La jambe de soutien 8 est pourvue à son autre extrémité d'une collerette 8b et d'un axe 13 qui constitue le pion sur lequel la partie inférieure 3a du tube est emmanchée à coulissement. Le mannequin repose ainsi par son propre poids sur la collerette 8b. Entre la platine 4 et une plaque 14 soudée au fourreau 5 susdit, on a placé un, ou de préférence deux ressorts 15 dont l'effet est de repousser le mannequin dans sa position la plus inclinée vers l'avant et, dans le cas de deux ressorts de maintenir et rappeler le mannequin autour de l'axe de rotation 11 susdit.The support leg 8 is provided at its other end with a flange 8b and an axis 13 which constitutes the pin on which the lower part 3a of the tube is slidably fitted. The mannequin thus rests by its own weight on the flange 8b. Between the plate 4 and a plate 14 welded to the aforementioned sheath 5, one or preferably two springs 15 have been placed, the effect of which is to push the manikin into its most inclined position towards the front and, in the case of two springs to hold and recall the dummy around the aforementioned axis of rotation 11.

Le support de mannequin est réglable en hauteur le long de l'élément de fixation 6 pour permettre son adaptation à la taille du sportif qui s'entraîne. On a symbolisé le dispositif permettant le réglage en hauteur susdit par un cric hydraulique 16 attelé entre un point fixe et une partie inférieure 5a du fourreau 5. Tout dispositif de réglage équivalent du genre à goupille ou vérin à vis pourrait également convenir.The mannequin support is adjustable in height along the fastening element 6 to allow its adaptation to the size of the sportsman who is training. The device for the above-mentioned height adjustment has been symbolized by a hydraulic jack 16 harnessed between a fixed point and a lower part 5a of the sleeve 5. Any equivalent adjustment device of the kind with pin or screw jack could also be suitable.

Enfin, dans le cas représenté en figure 1, la tête 1 du mannequin est séparée du tronc et amovible. Sa fixation est assurée au moyen d'un pion 17 soudé à l'armature tubulaire 3 du buste et sur lequel est enfilée une douille 18 formant armature de la tête 1. Une vis 19 coopérant avec un taraudage d'extrémité du pion 17 au travers du fond de la douille 18 permet le blocage de la tête sur le tronc.Finally, in the case shown in Figure 1, the head 1 of the mannequin is separated from the trunk and removable. Its fixing is ensured by means of a pin 17 welded to the tubular frame 3 of the bust and on which a sleeve 18 is threaded forming the frame of the head 1. A screw 19 cooperating with an end thread of the pin 17 through from the bottom of the socket 18 allows the blocking of the head on the trunk.

Il sera préféré le cas où l'extrémité du pion 17 présente un contour polygonal (par exemple un six pans) et où le fond de la douille 18 présente un évidement dont la paroi polygonale résulte,par exemple,de l'intersection de deux évidements à six pans creux décalés de 30 degrés l'un par rapport à l'autre. Par ce moyen on peut indexer l'orientation de la tête par rapport au buste de manière simple, de 30 en 30 degrés.It will be preferred the case where the end of the pin 17 has a polygonal contour (for example a hexagon) and where the bottom of the sleeve 18 has a recess whose polygonal wall results, for example, from the intersection of two recesses with hexagon socket offset by 30 degrees to each other. By this means one can index the orientation of the head relative to the bust in a simple way, from 30 to 30 degrees.

Sur la figure 2 on a représenté par un schéma de face un mannequin conforme à la figure 1 équipé en outre de membres articulés comme des bras 20, 21 ou pendulaires comme les jambes 22, 23 qui peuvent être plus ou moins lestées.In Figure 2 is shown by a front diagram a dummy according to Figure 1 further equipped with articulated members like arms 20, 21 or pendulum like legs 22, 23 which can be more or less weighted.

L'élément 6 de fixation du support peut être attelé à un mur du local d'entraînement ou arc- bouté entre son plafond et son plancher.The element 6 for fixing the support can be attached to a wall of the training room or braced between its ceiling and its floor.

Le sportif venant s'entraîner se trouve donc en face d'un mannequin incliné sur l'avant d'environ 5° par rapport à la verticale et pouvant débattre autour d'une articulation globale inférieure possédant 3 axes orthogonaux et s'élever par coulissement sous les coups du sportif. En réglant le freinage des articulations et notamment du fourreau 6 par rapport au support 5, et la raideur du ou des ressorts 15,on oppose au sportif qui s'entraîne un "adversaire" dont on peut régler les réactions et ainsi simuler la catégorie de poids. Ces déplacements du mannequin obligent constamment le sportif à modifier son attitude et sa place pour retrouver une position optimale par rapport au mannequin.The sportsman coming to train is therefore in front of a mannequin inclined on the front of approximately 5 ° with respect to the vertical and being able to debate around a lower overall articulation having 3 orthogonal axes and to rise by sliding under the blows of the sportsman. By adjusting the braking of the joints and in particular of the oven reau 6 relative to the support 5, and the stiffness of the spring or springs 15, we oppose the sportsman who trains an "adversary" whose reactions we can adjust and thus simulate the weight category. These movements of the mannequin constantly oblige the sportsman to modify his attitude and his place to find an optimal position with respect to the mannequin.

Equipé de membres, le mannequin s'adapte aux sports dans lesquels il convient de travailler le jeu de jambe (crochetage, balayage).. ou permet de simuler la garde de l'adversaire faisant obstacle à la frappe de celui qui s'entraîne.Equipped with limbs, the mannequin adapts to sports in which it is advisable to work on the footwork (picking, sweeping).

L'un des modes de réalisation avantageux du mannequin selon l'invention consiste à réaliser tête et buste par surmoulage d'un matériau synthétique alvéolaire (par exemple mousse de polyuréthane) sur leur armature métallique respective. On peut à cet égard imaginer que tête et buste ne soient pas séparés mais reliés par un élément élastique permettant une rotation relative de la tête par rapport au buste à l'encontre du couple de rappel en torsion de cet élément élastique.One of the advantageous embodiments of the dummy according to the invention consists in making the head and bust by overmolding of a cellular synthetic material (for example polyurethane foam) on their respective metal frame. In this regard, one can imagine that the head and bust are not separated but connected by an elastic element allowing relative rotation of the head relative to the bust against the torsional restoring torque of this elastic element.

L'invention trouve une application intéressante dans le domaine des équipements sportifs.The invention finds an interesting application in the field of sports equipment.
