Definitions
- the invention relates to gymnastic equipment according to the first parts of claims 1, 3 and 7.
- FIGS. 44 to 47 of EP-A 0 030 512 Such devices are shown in FIGS. 44 to 47 of EP-A 0 030 512 and described in context.
- the handle bar which carries handles at its free ends, is designed as a leaf spring, the thickness of which increases away from the ends towards the connecting rod.
- the handle bar is replaced by a man-wound coil spring, which is also provided with handles at the free ends.
- the disadvantage of the two designs is that the spring characteristic of both the handlebar and the coil spring is fixed from the outset and cannot be changed.
- the device is therefore only intended for people with approximately the same physical strength. If the people have greater forces, excessive deformations will occur. If, on the other hand, the exercising persons are weak, there will be no deformation of the handle bar at all.
- US-A 4 432 543 describes a gymnastics device used to strengthen the muscles and tendons of a foot of a patient. This must operate the device itself.
- the device has a frame that consists of a base and a stand. At the base, a pedal is pivotally mounted on a transverse axis. The foot to be treated is attached to the pedal by means of a band.
- the stand runs approximately perpendicular to the base and carries a horizontal axis on which two two-armed levers are pivoted. These have handles at their upper ends.
- the lower ends of the levers are connected by ropes or the like with a screw which can be screwed into one of three threaded holes which are cut into the free end of the pedal at various distances from its transverse axis. By changing the selected threaded hole, the point of application of the two ropes and thus the force to be applied can be changed.
- a construction such as is to be protected under the first part of claim 1 cannot be found in this document.
- the gymnastics device according to AT-B 377 182 belongs to the same genus as the subject of the application with regard to the use of a support bar and a handle bar.
- the handle bar is continuous and rigid. For this reason, the forces to be exerted by the two arms of the user must be the same, since otherwise the handle bar pivots, as indicated by dashed lines in FIG. 1. Thus, the last group of features of the first part of claim 1 is not present in this known solution.
- the object of the invention is therefore to create gymnastic equipment which can be easily adapted to the physical forces of the user.
- the measure of claim 2 on the one hand secures the spring element against displacement during use of the device and on the other hand enables easy replacement of the spring element.
- DE-A1 2 716 046 describes a training device, in particular for strengthening the arm, shoulder and chest muscles.
- the device consists of a horizontal support plate with a trough-shaped elbow support section and with a single-arm actuating lever that is pivotable against compression springs and corresponds to the length of the forearm on the support plate in the area of the elbow support section and a horizontal axis.
- the compression springs are housed in Fig. 6 in elbows, which correspond to the shape of a quarter circle, which are attached with their lower end to the support plate.
- claims 4 to 6 make it possible in various ways to preload the two coil springs used in the device.
- the force to be overcome by the practitioner therefore does not start at zero, but at a previously set value. This makes it possible to reduce the swivel angle.
- DE-A1 2 157 792 describes a sports device for strengthening the abdominal muscles, which has a base frame on which a lying board is attached.
- two supports articulated on the base frame protrude which are adjustable in their angular position to the base frame and between which a resilient or movable foot support is arranged for the user resting on the lying position on the lying board.
- semicircular guides are attached to the base frame, in which holes are cut out.
- Each of the supports also has a hole. Using a pin that goes through the hole in the support and a
- the measure of claim 8 has the advantage that the two bodies made of elastomeric material do not rest directly on the connecting rod or on the two handlebar halves, but on support bodies that can be easily adapted to the shape of the body made of elastomeric material.
- FIG. 1 is the overall view of the gymnastics device according to the first exemplary embodiment
- FIG. 2 shows a section through a detail thereof and along the line 11-11 of FIG. 3 on a larger scale in the basic position
- FIG. 2a shows the detail according to FIG loaded condition of the device
- Figure 3 is a section along the line 111-111 of Figure 2
- Figure 4 is a plan view of Figure 2 with omission of the top cover
- Figures 5 and 6 each an overall view of the second or third embodiment 7 is an overall view of the gymnastics device of the fourth embodiment
- FIG. 8 shows a detail thereof according to the circle A in FIG. 7, and
- FIG. 9 shows a section along the line 111-111 in FIG. 8.
- the gymnastics device shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 essentially consists of a support rod 1 supported by the user when using it in the bend of the trunk or on the thighs, to which a connecting rod 2 running normal to this is attached.
- a U-shaped bearing 7 is fastened in a manner not specified.
- the bearing 7 carries at its free end an axis 3 which crosses the support rod 1 at right angles.
- the ends of two handle bar halves 4a, 4b are articulated on this axis 3 by means of bearing eyes 5a, 5b.
- Each handle bar half 4a, 4b carries a handle 8a, 8b at its outer end.
- the bearing eyes 5a, 5b have extensions 6a, 6b running on their areas lying against the handlebar halves 4a, 4b in the direction of the connecting rod 2.
- a spring element 9 is inserted, which, viewed in the transverse direction, front and rear, is delimited by the upstanding leg walls 7a, 7b of the U-shaped bearing 7 (see Fig. 3). Viewed in a plane normal to this direction, the two bearing eyes 5a, 5b are supported on the spring element 9 by means of their two extensions 6a, 6b in the rest position of the gymnastics device.
- the spring element 9 is an approximately wedge-shaped body made of an elastomeric material. The storage area described above is protected by a cover 10.
- the support rod 1 When the gymnastics device is used by a practitioner, the support rod 1 is first placed on the legs of the user. Then the two handles 8a, 8b are grasped by the hands of the practitioner and pivoted against the support rod 1 with exertion of force, the spring element 9 being deformed (see FIG. 2a). If the user no longer exerts any force on the handles 8a, 8b, which can still be held by him, the spring element 9 returns to its original shape, the two handlebar halves 4a, 4b assuming their basic position. The exercise can then be repeated as required, since the spring element 9 is dimensioned against permanent deformation. The spring force to be overcome by the practitioner can be selected by appropriate dimensioning of the spring element 9. A set of spring elements with different spring characteristics enables the device to be adapted to different physical properties of the respective user.
- the connecting rod 22 is provided at its upper end with an arcuate guide rod 30 which is concentric with the axis 23 and is arranged symmetrically with respect to the connecting rod 22.
- the free end regions of the guide rod 30 pass through bores or elongated holes in the two handle bar halves 24a, 24b and are provided with threads in these regions, which run in a straight line, onto which nuts 31a, 31b are screwed.
- the pivot angle of the two handlebar halves 24a, 24b is limited by these nuts 31a, 31b. Should the nuts 31a, 31 also allow the prestressing of the coil springs 29a, 29b to be adjusted so that the practitioner is loaded with a predetermined spring force at the start of his exercises, then the use of elongated holes in the handlebar halves 24a, 24b is for the In this case, passage of elongated, threaded straight end sections of the guide rod 30 is required.
- FIG. 6 A further variant for changing the pretension by means of coil springs 29a, 29b is shown in FIG. 6.
- the pins 33a, 33b can be sprung in a known manner, which simplifies the fixing of the individual abutments 32a, 32b. This also allows the pins 33a, 33b to be additionally secured against loss.
- the two nuts can also be made by riveting the two free ends of the guide rod 30 '.
- the advantage of this embodiment is that the handle bar halves 24a, 24b lie in one plane in the starting position, as illustrated in FIG.
- the coil springs 29a, 29b are pretensioned by means of the two nuts 31a, 31b in the embodiment according to FIG. 5, they are connected to an inverted V-shaped starting position, the angle between the two handlebar halves 24a, 24b being connected to the Increasing the preload of the two coil springs 29a, 29b decreases.
- the left-hand abutment 32a was shown in a position corresponding to FIG. 5 in FIG. 6, but the abutment 32b in a position in the right-hand position offset position in which the coil spring 29b of the coil spring 29a is biased.
- the gymnastics device shown in Fig. 7-9 consists essentially of a support rod 11 resting on the user during gymnastic exercise in the bend of the trunk or on the thighs, on which a connecting rod 12 running normal to this is attached.
- the latter carries at its upper end a pivot axis 13 which crosses the support rod 11 at right angles.
- the ends of two handle bar halves 14a, 14b are articulated on this pivot axis 13 by means of bearing eyes 15a, 15b.
- Each handle bar half 14a, 14b carries a handle 18a, 18b at its outer end.
- the storage area described above is protected by a cover 10 '.
- two support bodies 17 are fastened, which have an approximately wedge-shaped shape in front view and are approximately U-shaped in cross section. Similar support bodies 16 are attached to the two handlebar halves 14a, 14b (see FIGS. 8 and 9).
- a spring element in the form of a wedge-shaped body 19 made of elastomeric material is located between the support bodies 16 and 17. In order to prevent the two bodies 19 from falling out of the support bodies 16 and 17, they are provided with lateral shoulders 16a and 17a which hold the two bodies 19 in the inserted position and, if necessary, limit the pivoting angle of the handlebar halves 14a, 14b.
- the support rod 11 When using the exercise machine by ben user, the support rod 11 is first placed on the leg. Then the two handles 18a and 18b are gripped by the hands of the user and pivoted against the force of the two bodies 19 against the support rod 11. A part of the volume of the body 19 radially exits between the shoulders 16a and 17a. Of course, at the same time there is a partial deflection of the mass of the bodies 19 in the direction of the pivot axis 13. If the force exerted by the user on the handles 18a, 18b is reduced to zero, the bodies 19 return to their original shape, i.e. no permanent deformations of the body 19 remain. In the rest position, the two handle bar halves 14a, 14b rest on the underside of the upper boundary wall 10'a of the cover 10'.
- the cover 10 ′ is removed when the cover is not installed.
- the two handlebar halves 14a, 14b pivoted up, the two bodies 19 inserted, the handlebar halves 14a, 14b pivoted downward and finally the cover 10 'brought into position by means of the pivot axis 13.
- compressed air cylinders as spring elements, which are articulated on the one hand on the connecting rod and on the other hand on the two handle bar halves.
- the pressure in the cylinders can then be varied depending on the physical forces of the user.
