Abstract

The invention relates to a physical exercise apparatus comprising three nested frame elements mounted inside one another for rotation about axes offset by 90 DEG from one another. The thus established gimbal mounting of the frame elements permits a person occupying the innermost frame element to assume any angular position in space solely by displacing his weight to thereby fortify his muscles an improve his sense of equilibrium.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Sportgerät mit einem ersten inneren Rahmenelement als Träger für eine Person, welches in einem zweiten, größeren Rahmenelement um eine erste Achse drehbar gelagert ist, wobei das zweite Rahmenelement seinerseits um eine quer zur ersten Achse weisende zweite Achse schwenkbar an einem dritten-Rahmenelement gelagert ist.The invention relates to a sports device with a first inner frame element as a support for a person, which is rotatably supported in a second, larger frame element about a first axis, the second frame element in turn being pivotable on a third axis about a second axis pointing transversely to the first axis. Frame element is stored.

Ein derartiges Gerät ist aus der US-Patentschrift 3 936 047 bekannt. Dieses Gerät dient zur Stärkung und zum Training von Muskelpartien und kann den Gleichgewichtssinn des Turners, der sich in dem inneren Rahmenelement befindet, verbessern.Such a device is known from US Pat. No. 3,936,047. This device is used to strengthen and train muscles and can improve the sense of balance of the gymnast, which is located in the inner frame element.

Bei dem bekannten Sportgerät wird das innere Rahmenelement mit Bilfe eines Motorantriebs um eine erste Achse gegenüber einem größeren zweiten Rahmenelement gedreht. Dieses größere Rahmenelement seinerseits ist schwenkbar an einem dritten Rahmenelement gelagert. Diese bekannte Ausführung bietet jedoch nicht die Möglichkeit einer dreidimensionalen Bewegung für den Turner, so daß der Turner in seinen Bewegungen eingeschränkt ist, da er seine Binde und den Oberkörper nicht frei bewegen kann. Die begrenzte Einsatzfähigkeit des Gerätea wird dadurch noch verstärkt, daß die Drehbewegung des inneren Rahmenelementes mit Hilfe eines Motors herbeigeführt wird.In the known sports device, the inner frame element is rotated about a first axis with respect to a larger second frame element using a motor drive. This larger frame element in turn is pivotally mounted on a third frame element. However, this known embodiment does not offer the possibility of a three-dimensional movement for the gymnast, so that the gymnast is restricted in his movements since he cannot move his bandage and the upper body freely. The limited usability of the device is further increased by the fact that the rotation of the inner frame element is brought about by means of a motor.

Außer einem Sportgerät der eingangs genannten Art ist auch ein Sportgerät unter dem Namen Rhönrad bekannt, das die Bewegungen zunächst aber nur in einer Kreisform zuläßt.In addition to a sports device of the type mentioned, a sports device is known under the name Rhönrad, which the Movements initially only allowed in a circular shape.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Sportgerät der eingangs genannten Art im Hinblick auf die Bewegungsmöglichkeiten des Turners zu verbessern.The invention has for its object to improve a sports device of the type mentioned with regard to the movement options of the gymnast.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß das dritte äußere Rahmenelement um eine dritte Achse schwenkbar gelagert ist, die zur zweiten Achse senkrecht verläuft, so daß sich eine im inneren Rahmenelement befindende Person aufgrund der dadurch erfolgten kardanischen Lagerung allein durch Gewichtsverlagerung in jede beliebige Raumwinkellage bringen kann.This object is achieved in that the third outer frame member is pivotally mounted about a third axis which is perpendicular to the second axis, so that a person located in the inner frame member due to the resulting gimbal bring only by shifting weight in any solid angular position can.

Dieses erfindungsgemäße Sportgerät bietet den Vorteil, daß der Turner durch die Drehbewegungen des Körpers innerhalb von wenigen Minuten alle Muskelpartien aufwärmen, trainieren und stärken kann. Er kann dabei aufgrund der kardanischen Aufhängung jede beliebige Raumlage einnehmen, wobei wichtig ist, daß dies allein durch Gewichtsverlagerung geschehen kann. Es findet kein äußerer Antrieb eines der Rahmenelemente statt.This sports device according to the invention has the advantage that the gymnast can warm up, train and strengthen all muscle parts within a few minutes by the rotational movements of the body. Due to the gimbal, he can take any position, it is important that this can only be done by shifting weight. There is no external drive for one of the frame elements.

Eine sehr vorteilhafte, konkrete Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß die drei Rahmenelemente ineinanderliegende Ringe sind. Die Ringe können aus Rundrohren zusammengesetzt sein, es können aber auch Flachstahl oder alle anderen für diese Zwecke geeigneten Materialien verwendet werden.A very advantageous, specific embodiment of the invention provides that the three frame elements are interlocking rings. The rings can be composed of round tubes, but flat steel or all other materials suitable for this purpose can also be used.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß der äußere Ring um die dritte Achse schwenkbar an einem Bodenständer gelagert ist. Durch die Lagerung des äußeren Rings an einem Bodenatänder läßt sich das Sportgerät in einfacher Weise auf begrenztem Raum an Jedem beliebigen Einsatzort einfach aufstellen.A further advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that the outer ring is pivotally mounted on a floor stand about the third axis. By mounting the outer ring on a floor stand, the sports equipment can be easily installed in a limited space Simply set up at any location.

Um zu verhindern, daß Zuschauer oder sich in der Nähe des Sportgerätes befindliche Personen in die Umlaufbahnen der Ringe kommen, können Schutzwandungen angebracht werden. Das Aufstellen des Gerätes wird durch den Bodenständer in jedem Fall sicher und einfach möglich.Protective walls can be attached to prevent spectators or people in the vicinity of the sports equipment from entering the orbits of the rings. The floor stand makes it safe and easy to set up the device.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Brfindung ist vorgesehen, daß im ersten, innersten Ring Fußstützen mit daran verstellbar angeordneten Halterollen zum Festhalten von Füßen vorgesehen sind. Die Person, die mit dem Sportgerät trainieren bzw. turnen will, kann sich dann auf die Fußstützen stellen. Mit Hilfe einer gegen den Spann drückbaren Andrückrolle und eine im Bereich der Ferse angeordnete Polsterung, kann der Fuß dann so festgehalten werden, daß der Sportler nicht von den Fußstützen abrutschen kann. Dasselbe kann z.B. auch mit Haltegurten gewährleistet werden, wobei jedoch die Halterollen, die vorzugsweise aus Schaumstoff oder einem anderen nachgiebigen Material bestehen, eine einfache Anpassung an unterschiedliche Fußgrößen ermöglichen. Natürliah können die Fußstützen selbst oder auch die Balterollen derart verstellbar am inneren Ring angeordnet werden, daß sich eine optimale Größenanpassung für die jeweiligen Turner erreichen läßt. In jedem Fall läßt sich mit den andrückbaren Halterollen oder den Haltegurten erreichen, daß der Turner auch bei hohen Rotationsgeschwindigkeiten einen sicheren Stand hat und nicht von den Fußstützen abrutscht.In a further embodiment of the invention it is provided that footrests are provided in the first, innermost ring with holding rollers which are adjustably arranged thereon for holding feet. The person who wants to train or do gymnastics with the sports equipment can then stand on the footrests. With the help of a pressure roller that can be pressed against the instep and a padding arranged in the area of the heel, the foot can then be held so that the athlete cannot slide off the footrests. The same can e.g. can also be ensured with holding straps, but the holding rollers, which are preferably made of foam or another resilient material, allow easy adaptation to different foot sizes. Naturally, the footrests themselves or the balt castors can be arranged on the inner ring in such an adjustable manner that an optimal size adjustment can be achieved for the respective gymnast. In any case, it can be achieved with the press-on holding rollers or the holding straps that the gymnast has a secure stand even at high rotational speeds and does not slip off the footrests.

Im innersten Ring ist vorzugsweise ein Stützreifen in Hüfthöhe angeordnet, der über Stangen mit dem innersten Ring verbunden ist. Der Stützreifen in Hüfthöhe dient ebenfalls zur Stützung des Körpers und ist vorzugsweise höhenverstellbar, so daß dadurch eine weitere Anpassung an die Größe des jeweiligen Turners möglich ist.In the innermost ring, a support tire is preferably arranged at waist level, which is connected to the innermost ring via rods. The support hoop at waist level also serves to support the body and is preferred height adjustable, so that a further adjustment to the size of the respective gymnast is possible.

Wenn die Stangen vom Stützreifen zum Ring hin auseinanderlaufend ausgebildet sind, bewirkt dies, daß die das Sportgerät betreibende Person in einer leichten Spreizstellung in dem Sportgerät stehen kann.If the rods are designed to diverge from the support tire towards the ring, this means that the person operating the sports equipment can stand in a slight spreading position in the sports equipment.

Eine weitere Ausgestaltung sieht vor, daß im Bereich des Stützreifens Haltegriffe angeordnet sind. Die Person kann sich dann entweder an diesen Haltegriffen festhalten und mit dem Oberkörper Schwenkbewegungen ausführen oder aber, wie das bei einer Weiterbildung ebenfalls vorgesehen ist, auch an Griffstangen, die im innersten Ring den Fußstützen gegenüberliegend angeordnet sind. Im Bereich der Griffstangen können auch Schlaufen oder dergleichen zum Einhängen der Handgelenke vorgesehen sein.A further embodiment provides that handles are arranged in the area of the support tire. The person can then either hold on to these handles and carry out pivoting movements with the upper body or, as is also provided in a further development, also on handle bars which are arranged in the innermost ring opposite the footrests. Loops or the like can also be provided in the region of the handle bars for hanging the wrists.

Eine weitere Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß zumindest in dem Bereich der Griffstangen Schutzabdeckungen derart angebracht sind, daß ein Übergreifen des Innenringradius verhindert wird. Eine solche Schutzabdeckung, die beispielsweise aus einem Plexiglas oder anderem Kunststoff hergestellt sein kann und beispielsweise sphärisch sich beidseitig des Ringes im Bereich der Griffstangen erstrecken kann, schützt den Benutzer im Falle eines Ausrutschens oder Loslassens der Griffstangen davor, daß die Hände in die Umlaufbahn des zweiten mittleren Ringes gelangen könnten und dient damit der Sicherheit des Benutzers.A further embodiment of the invention provides that protective covers are attached at least in the region of the handle bars in such a way that the inner ring radius is prevented from reaching over. Such a protective cover, which can be made of plexiglass or other plastic, for example, and can, for example, spherically extend on both sides of the ring in the region of the handlebars, protects the user from the hands falling into the orbit of the second if the handlebars slip or let go could reach the middle ring and thus serves the safety of the user.

Eine weitere Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß die Lagerstellen aus an den Ringen befestigten Lagersockeln, auf die Sockel schraubbaren Lagern und aus an den Ringen befestigten Achsbolzen bestehen. Ein solches Lager läßt sich leicht auseinanderbauen, so daß der Zusammenbau des Turngerätes am jeweiligen Verwendungsort in einfacher Weise möglich ist.Another embodiment of the invention provides that the bearings consist of bearing bases fastened to the rings, bearings which can be screwed onto the bases and axle bolts fastened to the rings. Such one Bearing can be easily disassembled, so that the assembly of the gymnastic device at the respective place of use is possible in a simple manner.

Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungabeispiels näher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to an exemplary embodiment shown in the drawing.

Dabei zeigt

  • Figur 1 eine Vorderansicht des Sportgerätes,
  • Figur 2 den Innenring,
  • Figur 3 die Lagerung eines Ringes am nächsten Ring und
  • Figur 4 perspektivisch ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Halterung der Füße.
It shows
  • FIG. 1 shows a front view of the sports device,
  • FIG. 2 the inner ring,
  • Figure 3 shows the storage of a ring on the next ring and
  • Figure 4 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the holder of the feet.

Das in Figur 1 dargestellte Sportgerät besitzt einen ersten, inneren Ring 3, der gegenüber einem mittleren Ring 2 um eine Achse A schwenkbar gelagert an diesem Ring 2 befestigt ist. Der zweite oder mittlere Ring 2 seinerseits ist wiederum um eine senkrecht zur Achse A verlaufende zweite Achse B schwenkbar an einem dritten Ring 1 gelagert. Dieser äußere Ring 1, der den größten Durchmesser der drei Ringe besitzt, ist nun wiederum um die Achse C, die senkrecht auf der Achse B steht, an einem Bodenständer 14 gelagert. Der Bodenständer 14 besteht aus einem in der Bodenebene kreisförmig umlaufenden Rundrohr mit zwei seitlichen, gegenüberliegenden Stützständern 15, die die drei Ringe 1, 2 und 3 tragen. Die Ringe, die sich in ihrer Achse im jeweils nächsten Ring drehen lassen, sind über Lager 4 an den Punkten der Ringaohsen A, B und C befestigt und jeweils beim nächsten Ring um 90° verändert positioniert. Der äußere Ring 1 kann je nach Raumhöhe auch an der Decke oder an der Wand eines Raumes gelagert sein.The sports device shown in FIG. 1 has a first, inner ring 3, which is attached to this ring 2 so as to be pivotable about an axis A relative to a central ring 2. The second or middle ring 2, in turn, is pivotally mounted on a third ring 1 about a second axis B running perpendicular to the axis A. This outer ring 1, which has the largest diameter of the three rings, is now in turn mounted on a floor stand 14 about the axis C, which is perpendicular to the axis B. The floor stand 14 consists of a circular tube which runs in a circular manner in the floor level with two lateral, opposite support stands 15 which carry the three rings 1, 2 and 3. The rings, which can be rotated in their axes in the next ring, are attached via bearings 4 at the points of the ring axes A, B and C and are changed by 90 ° for the next ring positioned. Depending on the height of the room, the outer ring 1 can also be mounted on the ceiling or on the wall of a room.

In Figur 2 ist der innere Ring 3 gezeigt.The inner ring 3 is shown in FIG.

Wie dort zu erkennen ist, besitzt dieser Ring zwei Stehplatten 5, wobei in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel Haltegurte 6 zur Befestigung der Füße des Turners gezeigt sind. Desweiteren ist im Inneren des Rings 3 ein Stützring 7 angeordnet, der über die Stangen 8 mit dem inneren Ring 3 verbunden ist. Die Stangen 8 gehen vom Stützring 7 auseinanderlaufend auf den Innenring 3 zu und sind mit diesem beispielsweise verschweißt. Bei einer konkreten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann der Stützring 7 so an den Stangen 8 befestigt werden, daß er gegenüber diesen höhenverstellbar ist. Im Bereich des Stützrings sind außen an den Haltestangen Haltegriffe 9 angebracht.As can be seen there, this ring has two standing plates 5, in this exemplary embodiment holding straps 6 for fastening the feet of the gymnast are shown. Furthermore, a support ring 7 is arranged in the interior of the ring 3, which is connected to the inner ring 3 via the rods 8. The rods 8 diverge from the support ring 7 towards the inner ring 3 and are welded to it, for example. In a specific embodiment of the invention, the support ring 7 can be attached to the rods 8 in such a way that it can be adjusted in height relative to them. In the area of the support ring, handles 9 are attached to the outside of the holding rods.

Im Inneren des Stützrings 3 etwa gegenüber den Stehplatten bzw. Fußstützen 5 verläuft kantenförmig eine Griffstange 10. Desweiteren sind elastische Schlaufen 11 in diesem Bereich angeordnet.In the interior of the support ring 3, approximately opposite the standing plates or footrests 5, a handle bar 10 runs in an edge shape. Furthermore, elastic loops 11 are arranged in this area.

In Figur 3 ist eine Lagerstelle 4 beispielsweise dargestellt. Es ist zu erkennen, daß die Lagerstelle aus einem Lagersockel 12 besteht, der in dem gezeigten Beispiel an dem mittleren Ring 2 fest angeordnet ist. Mit diesem Lagersockel kann das eigentliche Lager 16 verschraubt werden. Das Lager 16 nimmt seinerseits den fest mit dem in dem gezeigten Beispiel inneren Ring 3 verbundenen Achsbolzen 13 auf, der bei der Befestigung des Gerätes zunächst in das Lager 16 eingesteckt wird. Dann kann das Lager 16 mit dem Lagersockel 12 verschraubt werden.In Figure 3, a bearing 4 is shown for example. It can be seen that the bearing point consists of a bearing base 12, which is fixedly arranged on the middle ring 2 in the example shown. The actual bearing 16 can be screwed to this bearing base. The bearing 16 in turn receives the axle bolt 13 which is fixedly connected to the inner ring 3 in the example shown and which is first inserted into the bearing 16 when the device is fastened. Then the bearing 16 can be screwed to the bearing base 12.

Sämtliche in Figur 1 gezeigten Lageratellen 4 können auf diese Weise verwirklicht werden. Es ist jedoch klar, daß dasselbe Ziel auch mit anders ausgebildeten Lagern erreichbar ist.All of the bearing atlas 4 shown in FIG. 1 can be implemented in this way. However, it is clear that the same goal can be achieved with differently designed camps.

Bine andere Möglichkeit der Befestigung der Füße ist in Figur 4 dargestellt. Dabei sind zwei auf einer Welle 19 gelagerte Andrückrollen 20 zu erkennen. Die Rollen 20 sind aus nachgiebigem Material, beispielsweise aus Schaumstoff. Die Welle 19 ist mit einer Halterung 21 am inneren Ring 3 befestigt, beispielsweise angeschweißt. Die Rollen sind in nicht näher gezeigter Weise höhenverstellbar und können auch in Richtung auf den hochstehenden Teil 5a der Fußstütze 5 einstellbar sein. An der Innenfläche des hochstehenden Teils 5a ist desweiteren ein Polster, welches ebenfalls aus Schaumstoff beatehen kann, angebracht, so daß mit dieser Halterung die Füße des Turners fest und bequem zwischen den Rollen 20 und dem Polster 22 gehalten werden.Another way of attaching the feet is shown in FIG. Two pressure rollers 20 mounted on a shaft 19 can be seen. The rollers 20 are made of resilient material, such as foam. The shaft 19 is fastened to the inner ring 3 with a holder 21, for example welded on. The rollers are height-adjustable in a manner not shown and can also be adjustable in the direction of the upstanding part 5a of the footrest 5. On the inner surface of the upstanding part 5a is also a pad, which can also be made of foam, is attached, so that with this bracket the feet of the gymnast are held firmly and comfortably between the rollers 20 and the pad 22.

Zur Betätigung des Gerätes steigt der Turner durch den Stützring 7 mit den Beinen hindurch, stellt die geeignete Höhe an den Fußstützen und/oder dem Stützring ein und befestigt die Schuhe entweder mit Hilfe der Gurte 6 oder durch Einstellen der Schaumstoffrollen an den Fußstützen. Mit den Händen kann er sich wahlweise an den Haltegriffen 9 im Bereich der Stangen 8 oder aber an den Griffstangen 10 oder auch an den Schlaufen festhalten.To operate the device, the gymnast climbs through the support ring 7 with the legs, sets the appropriate height on the footrests and / or the support ring and fastens the shoes either with the aid of the straps 6 or by adjusting the foam rollers on the footrests. With his hands he can either hold on to the handles 9 in the area of the bars 8 or else on the handle bars 10 or on the loops.

Zur Betätigung des Gerätes steigt der Turner durch den Stützring 7 mit den Beinen hindurch und befestigt die Schuhe mit Hilfe der Gurte 6 an den Fußatützen 5. Mit den Händen kann er sich wahlweise an den Haltegriffen 9 im Bereich der Stangen 8 oder aber an den Griffstangen 10 oder auch den Schlaufen 11 festhalten.To operate the device, the gymnast climbs through the support ring 7 with his legs and fastens the shoes to the footrests 5 using the straps 6. With his hands, he can either use the handles 9 in the area of the bars 8 or the handlebars 10 or hold the loops 11.

Aufgrund der jeweils um 90° versetzten Anordnung der Lagerstellen befindet sich der Turner nun in einem kardanisch gelagerten Innenring, so daß er durch Gewichtsverlagerung insbesondere des Oberkörpers jede beliebige Raumwinkellage einnehmen kann.Due to the 90 ° staggered arrangement of the bearing points, the gymnast is now in a gimbal-mounted inner ring, so that he can assume any solid angle position by shifting the weight, in particular of the upper body.

Um zu verhindern, daß beispielsweise bei einem Abgleiten der Hände von den Griffstangen C diese in den Bereich des zweiten Ring 3 gelangen können, was eine Verletzungsgefahr mit sich bringen könnte, können im Bereich der Griffstangen 10 in den Zeichnungen nicht näher gezeigte Schutzabdecken, die insbesondere sphärisch verlaufen können, angeordnet sein.In order to prevent that, for example, when the hands slide off the handle bars C they can get into the area of the second ring 3, which could entail a risk of injury, protective covers not shown in the drawings can be provided in the area of the handle bars 10, which in particular can be spherical, be arranged.

Es ist klar, daß im Rahmen der Erfindung viele Variationen möglich sind. Beispielsweise muß der innere Ring nicht unbedingt ein umlaufender Ring sein, hier genügt z.B. auch ein nur halbkreisförmig verlaufendes Ringsegment, wenn darauf verzichtet wird, daß sich die Person in einer gestreckten Lage festhalten können soll. Auch wäre es beispielsweise denkbar, die einzelnen Ringe durch beispielsweise durchsichtige Kunststoffkugeln zu ersetzen, die entsprechend aneinander gelagert sind.It is clear that many variations are possible within the scope of the invention. For example, the inner ring does not necessarily have to be a circumferential ring, e.g. also a semicircular ring segment, if it is dispensed with that the person should be able to hold on in an extended position. It would also be conceivable, for example, to replace the individual rings with, for example, transparent plastic balls which are correspondingly supported on one another.
