Abstract

Cet accessoire de sport convient pour l'entraînement du corps pendant la marche et la course, étant donné qu'il exerce une force sur les bras en sens contraire au balancement naturel de ceux-ci, renforçant ainsi les muscles des bras et du torse. A cet effet, on utilise une bande extensible (1) fixée en place de manière détachable transversalement sur le dos (2a) d'un gilet (2) et pourvue à ses extrémités de deux manchettes (4) pour les bras et/ou pour les mains.This sports accessory is suitable for training the body during walking and running, since it exerts a force on the arms in the opposite direction to their natural swing, thus strengthening the muscles of the arms and torso. For this purpose, an extensible band (1) is used which is detachably fixed in place transversely on the back (2a) of a waistcoat (2) and provided at its ends with two cuffs (4) for the arms and / or for hands.

Description

SportgerätSports equipment
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Sportgerät zur Ertüchtigung der Oberkörpermuskulatur, insbesondere Armmuskulatur während des Gehens und Laufens, mit einem elastischen Dehnband.The invention relates to a sports device for strengthening the upper body muscles, in particular arm muscles during walking and running, with an elastic stretch band.
Beim sportlichen Ausdauer- und Krafttraining sollen möglichst umfangreiche Partien der Skelettmuskulatur über einen längeren Zeitraum beansprucht, werden. Dies ist zum Beispiel beim Skilanglauf oder beim Schwimmen der Fall, also Sportarten, die immer wieder ausdrücklich für ihre günstigen Auswirkungen auf den Körper gelobt werden.In athletic endurance and strength training, as large a part of the skeletal muscles as possible should be used over a longer period of time. This is the case, for example, with cross-country skiing or swimming, i.e. sports that are repeatedly expressly praised for their beneficial effects on the body.
Beim Laufen und Gehen aber, den natürlichen Fortbewe¬ gungsarten des Menschen, werden fast ausschließlich die Beine eingesetzt und die Arme führen beim Laufen oder Gehen lastfreie Bewegungen unwillkürlich durch.When running and walking, however, the natural modes of movement of humans, the legs are used almost exclusively and the arms involuntarily perform load-free movements when running or walking.
Um die Gliedmaßen mehr zu belasten, werden Gewichte über Hand- und Fußgelenke gestreift; diese Gewichte üben aber mehr Widerstand auf die jeweiligen Beugerauskeln aus. Die bedeutenderen Muskeln beim Laufen oder Gehen sind abe die Streckmuskeln, die das Körpergewicht tragen und den Absprung bewirken. Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein einfaches und kostengünstiges, jedoch wirkungsvolles Sportgerät zu schaffen, das beim Laufen und Gehen eine Belastung auf die Arme und somit den Oberkörper bewirkt, was zu einer Ganzkörperertüchtigung, ähnlich wie Schwimmen oder Skilanglauf, führt.To put more strain on the limbs, weights are slipped over the wrists and ankles; however, these weights exert more resistance on the respective flexor dislocations. The more important muscles when running or walking are the extensor muscles that support the body weight and cause the jump. The object of the invention is to provide a simple and inexpensive, but effective sports device that causes a strain on the arms and thus the upper body when running and walking, which leads to a full body workout, similar to swimming or cross-country skiing.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Patentanspruches 1 gelöst, wobei noch die in den Unteransprüchen aufgeführten einzelnen Merkmale vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Auf abenlösung darstellen.This object is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1, the individual features listed in the subclaims also representing advantageous developments of the solution.
Der Gegenstand der Erfindung erstreckt sich nicht nur auf die Merkmale der einzelnen Ansprüche, sondern auch auf deren Kombination.The object of the invention extends not only to the features of the individual claims, but also to their combination.
Das erfindungsgemäße Sportgerät wirkt beim Laufen und Gehen auf die zwangsläufig mitschwingenden Arme ein, wodurch ständig eine Gegenkraft entsteht, die durch die Arme zu überwinden ist, wodurch die Arm- und Oberkörper¬ muskulatur gestärkt wird.The sports device according to the invention acts on the inevitably vibrating arms during running and walking, as a result of which a counterforce constantly arises which must be overcome by the arms, thereby strengthening the arm and upper body muscles.
Ein elastisches Dehnband des Sportgerätes kreuzt sich mit mindestens zwei Bandbereichen auf dem Rücken des Trägers in Höhe der Schulterblätter und diese sind gegensätzlich jeweils über die Schulter der einen und unter der Achsel der anderen Seite durchgeführt. Sie wirken auf die Unterarme, an denen sie durch verstellbare Manschetten oder Armringe befestigt sind. Das Dehnband ist in Form einer 8 verlegt und durch die Schlaufen einer Weste ge¬ führt. Das Kreuz des Dehnbandes befindet sich in Höhe der Schulterblätter. Die Schulter- und Rückenpartie ist durch die Weste, an der die elastischen Bänder geführt sind, gegen Scheuern und den Druck der Bänder geschützt. Wei¬ terhin hält die Weste das Dehnband in der erfor¬ derlichen Lage (Verlauf) und ermöglicht ein pro¬ blemloses An- und Ablegen des Sportgerätes.An elastic stretch band of the sports device intersects with at least two band areas on the back of the wearer at the level of the shoulder blades and these are carried out in opposite directions over the shoulder of one side and under the armpit of the other side. They act on the forearms to which they are attached by adjustable cuffs or arm rings. The stretch band is laid in the form of an 8 and is guided through the loops of a vest. The cross of the stretch band is at the level of the shoulder blades. The shoulder and back area is protected against chafing and the pressure of the straps by the vest on which the elastic straps are guided. Furthermore, the vest holds the stretch band in the required position (course) and enables problem-free putting on and taking off of the sports equipment.
Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile bestehen darin, daß das Lauftraining effektiver gestaltet werden kann. Durch die gleichzeitige Belastung der Arme werden diese zusätzlich zu verstärkter Bewe¬ gung veranlaßt, wodurch mit der Zeit der Bewegungs¬ ablauf harmonischer und die gesamte Bewegungskoordi¬ nation verbessert werden soll.The advantages achieved with the invention are that the running training can be made more effective. Due to the simultaneous loading of the arms, these are additionally induced to move more intensely, so that over time the movement sequence is to be more harmonious and the overall movement coordination is to be improved.
Wie beim Schwimmen und Skilanglauf wird der ganze Körper dann auch beim Laufen und Gehen gekräftigt. Es braucht zusätzlich zum Laufen keine Extrazeit zur ausgleichenden Ertüchtigung des Oberkörpers bei langweiligem stationärem Krafttraining aufge¬ wendet zu werden.As with swimming and cross-country skiing, the whole body is strengthened when running and walking. In addition to running, there is no need to spend extra time to balance the upper body during boring stationary strength training.
Das Sportgerät ist einfach und kostengünstig aufge¬ baut, leicht zu handhaben und zeigt aufgrund seiner guten Wirkungsweise einen hohen Gebrauchswert. Anhand der Zeichnungen werden Ausführungsbeispiele gemäß der Erfindung näher erläutert.

Das Sportgerät setzt sich aus einem elastischen Dehnband (1), einer Weste (2) und ggf. einem Ab¬ deckumhang (3) zusammen. Dabei ist das Dehnband (1) überkreuz verlaufend am Rückenteil (2a) der Weste (2) lagegeführt lösbar gehalten und mit zwei endseitigen Arm- und/oder Handmanschetten (4) ausgestattet.9 is a perspective view of a cuff with an expansion band extended up to a handle. The sports device is composed of an elastic stretch band (1), a vest (2) and possibly a cover cape (3). The stretch band (1) is held cross-wise on the back part (2a) of the vest (2) in a detachable manner and equipped with two arm and / or hand cuffs (4) at the end.
Dieses Dehnband (1) ist von einem vorzugsweise einen rechteckigen Querschnitt besitzenden, fla¬ chen Gurt aus Gummi und/oder Kunststoff gebildet. Durch die flache Ausbildung des Dehnbandes (1 ) liegt dieses drucksteilen- und scheuerfrei am Rücken (5) und den Schultern (6) der das Sport¬ gerät benutzenden Person an.This expansion band (1) is formed by a flat belt made of rubber and / or plastic, which preferably has a rectangular cross section. Due to the flat design of the expansion band (1), it rests on the back (5) and the shoulders (6) of the person using the sports device without pressure parts and scouring.
Es besteht auch die Möglichkeit, ein Dehnband (1) mit kreisförmigem oder ovalem Querschnitt einzu¬ setzen. Weiterhin können anstelle des Dehnbandes (1 ) Zugfedern vorgesehen sein.There is also the possibility of using an expansion band (1) with a circular or oval cross section. Tension springs can also be provided instead of the expansion band (1).
Die Weste (2) ist an der Außenseite ihres Rücken¬ teiles (2a) mit mehreren auf zwei sich kreuzenden Linien vom Schulterbereich bis zum unteren Rücken¬ teilbereich verlaufenden Laschen (7) ausgestattet, durch die das Dehnband (1 ) geführt ist und somit überkreuz verlaufend an der Weste (2) gehalten ist. Entweder ist das Dehnband (1) durch geschlossene Laschen (7) fest an der Weste (2) gehalten oder aber die Laschen (7) sind durch Druckknopfver¬ schlüsse oder andersartige Verbindungsmittel mit einem Ende an der Weste (2) zum Einlegen und zum Abnehmen des Dehnbandes (1) lösbar vorgesehen, so daß das Dehnband (1) auch ohne Weste (2) be¬ nutzbar ist.The vest (2) is equipped on the outside of its back part (2a) with several straps (7) running on two intersecting lines from the shoulder area to the lower back part area, through which the expansion band (1) is guided and thus crossed is kept running on the vest (2). Either the expansion band (1) is held firmly on the vest (2) by means of closed tabs (7) or the tabs (7) are attached to the vest (2) by one end by push-button closures or other types of connection means for insertion and removal of the expansion band (1) is provided releasably, so that the expansion band (1) can also be used without a vest (2).
Das Dehnband (1) ist als Endlosband durch je eine Schlaufe (8) der beiden Manschetten (4) geführt (Fig. 4). Weiterhin kann das Dehnband (1) von zwei Bändern gebildet sein, die mit ihren beiden Enden an beiden Manschetten (4) befestigt sind (Fig. 1).The expansion belt (1) is guided as an endless belt through a loop (8) of the two sleeves (4) (Fig. 4). Furthermore, the expansion band (1) can be formed by two bands, which are fastened with their two ends to both sleeves (4) (Fig. 1).
Gemäß der Ausführung nach Fig. 7 und 8 ist das Dehnband (1) in seinen Enden mit Ösen (12) ausge¬ stattet, die um Befestigungsbügel (13) fassen, wel¬ che an den Manschetten (4) befestigt sind. Durch die Ösen (12) ist das Dehnband (1) fest an der Manschet¬ te (4) gehalten, d.h., die Bandbereiche können nicht gegenüber der Manschette (4) verschoben (in Längs¬ richtung wandern) werden, so daß das Band (1) rutsch¬ fest an den Manschetten (4) gehalten ist und da¬ durch die Bandbereiche des Dehnbandes (1 ) bei den gegeneinander wirkenden Armbewegungen auch ge¬ spannt und entspannt werden und somit Wirkung zeigen.According to the embodiment according to FIGS. 7 and 8, the expansion band (1) is equipped in its ends with eyelets (12) which grip around fastening brackets (13) which are fastened to the sleeves (4). The expansion band (1) is held firmly on the cuff (4) by the eyelets (12), ie the band areas cannot be shifted (move in the longitudinal direction) relative to the cuff (4), so that the band ( 1) is held on the cuffs (4) in a non-slip manner and, as a result, the band areas of the expansion band (1) are also tensioned and relaxed during the arm movements acting against one another and thus have an effect.
In bevorzugter Weise ist das Dehnband (1) längenver¬ stellbar ausgeführt, um es einmal auf verschiedene Körpergrößen einrichten und zum an deren seine Zug¬ spannung einstellen zu können. Das endlose Dehnband (1) ist hierfür an einer Stelle geteilt und die beiden Dehnbandenden (1a, 1b) werden dann überlappend angeordnet und durch einen Verschluß (9), wie Schnallenverschluß, Klemmverschluß, Rast¬ oder Hakenverschluß od. gl., in der stufenweise oder stufenlos vorgenommenen Längenverstellung zusammen¬ gehalten (Fig. 5).The stretch band (1) is preferably adjustable in length so that it can be adjusted to different body sizes and to adjust its tension. The endless expansion band (1) is divided at one point for this purpose and the two expansion band ends (1a, 1b) are then arranged in an overlapping manner and by a closure (9), such as a buckle closure, clamp closure, latching or hook closure or the like, in stages or continuously adjustable length adjustment held together (FIG. 5).
Bei dem aus zwei Bändern bestehenden Dehnbänd (1) ist in jedem Band eine Trennung und ein Verschluß (9) vorgesehen.In the case of the two-band expansion band (1), a separation and a closure (9) are provided in each band.
Die Manschette (4) ist von einem gepolsterten Ring oder einem geschlossenen Flachband gebildet. Auch ist es bevorzugt, die Manschette (4) für unterschied¬ lich starke Arme bzw. Handgelenke in sich verstell¬ bar auszubilden, wobei auch hierbei die Manschette (4) geteilt ist, mit ihren beiden Manschettenenden (4a, 4b) überlappend angeordnet und durch einen Ver¬ schluß (10), wie Schnallen-, Klemm- oder Rast- bzw. Hakenverschluß, in der stufenweisen oder stufenlosen ümfangsgroßenverstellung lösbar zusammengehalten werden.The cuff (4) is formed by a padded ring or a closed flat band. It is also preferred to design the cuff (4) to be adjustable in itself for arms or wrists of different strengths, the cuff (4) also being divided, arranged with its two cuff ends (4a, 4b) overlapping and through a closure (10), such as a buckle, clamp or latch or hook closure, is releasably held together in the gradual or stepless circumferential size adjustment.
Fig. 6 zeigt einen Abdeckumhang (3), der auf den Schul¬ tern (6) und einem Teil des Rückens (5) der Person liegt und einen Teil des Dehnbandes (1) und der Weste (2) abdeckt und dabei als Sicht- und Wärmeschutz dient. Dieserümhang (3) läßt sich auch abnehmbar an der Weste (2) befestigen, so daß er das Dehnband (1) teilweise verdeckt. Dieser Umhang (3) dient weiterhin als optisch verschönerndes Teil des Sportgerätes und als Schutz beim Reißen des Dehnbandes (1), indem er ein unkontrollier¬ tes Zurückschnellen des gerissenen Bandteiles verhindert. Der Umhang (3) kann verschiedene Formen haben und aus verschiedenen Stoffen und in verschiedenen Far¬ ben hergestellt sein.6 shows a cover cape (3) which lies on the shoulders (6) and part of the back (5) of the person and covers part of the stretch band (1) and the vest (2) and is thereby visible and thermal protection. This cape (3) can also be detachably attached to the vest (2) so that it partially covers the stretch band (1). This cape (3) also serves as an optically beautifying part of the sports equipment and as protection against tearing of the stretch band (1) by preventing the torn band part from snapping back uncontrollably. The cape (3) can have different shapes and can be made from different materials and in different colors.
Der mit der Weste (2) ggf. verbundene Umhang (3) bil¬ det mit dem Dehnband (1) und den Manschetten (4) ein zusammenhängendes Sportgerät, was einfach und bequem an- und ablegbar ist.The cape (3) possibly connected to the vest (2) forms a cohesive sports device with the stretch band (1) and the cuffs (4), which can be put on and taken off easily and conveniently.
Die Fig. 2 und 3 zeigen das Sportgerät bei der Be¬ nutzung, wobei man sieht, daß das Dehnband (1) den Rücken (5) der Person in Höhe der Schulterblätter überkreuzt und über die Schultern (6) sowie unter den Achseln läuft und dann mit den je eine Manschet¬ te (4) zeigenden Bandenden bis zu den Unterarmen (11a) bzw. Handgelenken oder den Händen geführt und dort angebracht ist, so daß bei den Armbewegungen eine Zug¬ kraft auf das Dehnband (1) ausgeübt und dadurch die Arme (11) einer verstärkten Belastung unterworfen werden. Das Dehnband (1) zeigt somit 8-förmig ge¬ legte Bandbereiche bzw. Bänder, die jweils S-förmig über den Rücken (5) und die Schultern (6) verlaufen.2 and 3 show the sports equipment in use, it being seen that the stretch band (1) crosses the back (5) of the person at the level of the shoulder blades and runs over the shoulders (6) and under the armpits and then with the band ends each showing a cuff (4) up to the forearms (11a) or wrists or hands and attached there so that a tensile force is exerted on the stretch band (1) during arm movements and thereby the arms (11) are subjected to an increased load. The expansion band (1) thus shows 8-shaped band areas or bands, which in each case run in an S-shape over the back (5) and the shoulders (6).
Aus den Fig. 7 bis 9 ist° ein Schnallenverschluß (10) für die Manschetten (4) ersichtlich.7 to 9 °, a buckle closure (10) for the cuffs (4) can be seen.
Dabei ist die Manschette (4) nach Fig. 7 von einem zylindrischen Flachring gebildet, während die Man¬ schette (4) nach Fig. 8 und 9 konisch und entsprechend der Unterarm-Längsform ausgebildet ist, so daß sie den Unterarm (11a) fest umschließt. Die Ösen (12) des Dehnbandes (1) lassen sich um die Befestigungsbügel (13) verschiebbar vorsehen, um un¬ terschiedliche Hebelwirkungen zu erzielen. Die Ver¬ schiebestellungen der Ösen (12) sind durch Klemmorga¬ ne (14) od. dgl. gegenüber den ' Befestigungsbügeln (13) lagefixierbar.The cuff (4) according to FIG. 7 is formed by a cylindrical flat ring, while the cuff (4) according to FIGS. 8 and 9 is conical and in accordance with the forearm longitudinal shape, so that it fixes the forearm (11a) encloses. The eyelets (12) of the expansion band (1) can be slidably provided around the fastening brackets (13) in order to achieve different leverage effects. The Ver¬ shift positions of the eyes (12) by Klemmorga¬ ne (14) od. Like. With respect to the 'mounting brackets (13) fixed in position.
Bei der weiteren Ausführung nach Fig. 9 sind die Enden des Dehnbandes (1) durch Klemmösen (15) hindurchgeführt und über die Manschette (4) hinaus bis zu einem endsei- tigen Handgriff (16) verlängert, so daß die Dehnband¬ enden am Handgriff (16) erfaßt werden.In the further embodiment according to FIG. 9, the ends of the expansion band (1) are passed through clamping eyelets (15) and extended beyond the sleeve (4) to an end-side handle (16), so that the expansion band ends on the handle (16) can be recorded.
Hierbei sind die Klemmösen (15) um die Befestigungs¬ bügel (13) verschiebbar und feststellbar vorgesehen (entsprechend der Ösen (12)), wodurch die Hebelkraft eingestellt und die Muskulatur der Unterarme (11a) belastet werden kann.The clamping eyelets (15) can be moved and locked around the fastening brackets (13) (corresponding to the eyelets (12)), whereby the leverage can be adjusted and the muscles of the forearms (11a) can be stressed.
Die Weste (2) ist mit dehnbaren Bereichen (2b) aus elastischem Material ausgestattet und bei der Dehn¬ band-Längenänderung gewisse Bewegungen mit durchzu¬ führen. The vest (2) is equipped with stretchable areas (2b) made of elastic material and certain movements have to be carried out when changing the length of the stretch band.
