The board (102) is carried on a mounting to be fixed to the wall (115) in such a way that its inclination may be adjusted and it can be locked in the selected inclination. Thus the gripping difficulty may be altered in a simple way by altering the inclination of the board and thus adapted to suit the individual abilities of the trainee. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Griffbrettvorrichtung, welche als Trainingsgerät für den Klettersport dient, mit einem Griffbrett, welches eine Greifstruktur aufweist, an der sich der Kletterer mit den Händen bzw. Fingern festhält und welches üblicherweise in einer solchen Höhe beispiels­weise an einer Zimmerwand befestigt ist, daß der Kletterer frei am Brett hängen kann.The invention relates to a fingerboard device, which serves as a training device for climbing, with a fingerboard, which has a gripping structure to which the climber holds on with his hands or fingers and which is usually attached at such a height, for example, to a room wall that the climber can hang freely on the board.

Die bekannten Griffbrettvorrichtungen bestehen aus einem einfachen Griffbrett, welche beispielsweise mittels Schrau­ben an der Zimmerwand oberhalb des Türstocks befestigt wer­den, wobei die der Zimmerwand abgewandte Vorderseite des Griffbretts mit geeigneten Greifstrukturen versehen ist. An diesen Greifstrukturen hält sich der Trainierende fest und hängt hierbei in der Luft. Auf diese Weise wird insbe­sondere die Kraft und Ausdauer der Finger- und Hand­muskulatur des Kletterers trainiert.The known fingerboard devices consist of a simple fingerboard, which are fastened, for example, by means of screws to the wall of the room above the door frame, the front of the fingerboard facing away from the room wall being provided with suitable gripping structures. The trainee clings to these gripping structures and hangs in the air. In this way, the strength and endurance of the climber's finger and hand muscles are trained.

Um die Trainingsmöglichkeiten und die Trainingseffizienz eines solchen bekannten Griffbretts zu steigern, ist es bekannt, daß der trainierende Kletterer bei Bedarf Bleiwe­sten anzieht, um sein Eigengewicht und somit die von ihm aufzuwendende Kraft zu steigern; zum gleichen Zweck ist auch die Verwendung von elastischen Bändern u.dgl. bekannt, welche den Kletterer nach unten ziehen. Solche Hilfsmittel sind jedoch zum einen nicht immer zur Hand und sind zum anderen in der Anwendung umständlich und ermöglichen in der Praxis keine auf die jeweiligen individuellen Fähigkeiten angemessen abgestellte ausreichende Differenzierung des gewünschten Schwierigkeitsgrads.In order to increase the training possibilities and the training efficiency of such a known fingerboard, it is known that the training climber puts on lead vests when necessary in order to increase his own weight and thus the force he has to use; is for the same purpose also the use of elastic bands and the like. known which pull the climber down. On the one hand, such aids are not always at hand and, on the other hand, are difficult to use and in practice do not allow sufficient differentiation of the desired level of difficulty to suit the individual skills.

Der Erfindung liegt daher in erster Linie die Aufgabe zu­grunde, eine Griffbrettvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Gattung so weiterzubilden, daß sie vielseitiger verwendbar ist und ohne großen Aufwand an die individuellen Trainings­bedürfnisse und körperlichen Voraussetzungen des Trainieren­den angepaßt werden kann.The invention is therefore primarily based on the object of developing a fingerboard device of the type mentioned in such a way that it is more versatile and can be adapted to the individual training needs and physical requirements of the trainee without great effort.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß im wesentlichen dadurch gelöst, daß die Griffbrettvorrichtung eine Halterung für das Griffbrett umfaßt, an der das Griffbrett neigungsver­stellbar und in der gewählten Neigung arretierbar gelagert ist.This object is essentially achieved in that the fingerboard device comprises a holder for the fingerboard, on which the fingerboard is tilt-adjustable and can be locked in the selected tilt.

Aufgrund der Neigungsverstellbarkeit des Griffbretts, des­sen Neigung entweder stufenlos oder in ausreichend kleinen Schritten stufenweise verstellbar sein kann, wird der Trai­ningserfolg dadurch in der Regel wesentlich gesteigert, daß der Trainierende die Neigung des Griffbretts in jedem Fall auf seine individuellen Bedürfnisse und Fähigkeiten einstellen kann und durch sukzessives Ändern der Neigung die Griffqualität und somit die Trainingsbelastung an den fortschreitenden Trainingserfolg anpassen kann. Es versteht sich, daß die Schwierigkeit des Greifens des Griffbretts mit dem Maße zunimmt, mit welchem das Griffbrett aus der vertikalen Stellung nach unten zum Trainierenden hin und letztlich in die horizontale Stellung geneigt wird.Due to the inclination adjustability of the fingerboard, the inclination of which can either be steplessly adjustable or gradually enough in small enough steps, the success of the training is generally significantly increased by the fact that the trainee can adjust the inclination of the fingerboard to his individual needs and abilities and through successively changing the inclination can adapt the grip quality and thus the training load to the progressing training success. It will be appreciated that the difficulty of gripping the fretboard increases with the degree to which the fretboard is inclined downward from the vertical position toward the exerciser and ultimately into the horizontal position.

In besonders bevorzugter Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß die Griffbrettvorrichtung eine Winkelmeß­einrichtung umfaßt, mit der die jeweils gewählte Winkelposi­tion des Griffbrettes ablesbar ist. Eine solche Winkelmeß­einrichtung stellt zum einen sicher, daß die gewählte Win­kelposition jederzeit wieder genau reproduzierbar ist bzw. daß die gewünschte Winkelposition genau einstellbar ist und zum anderen trägt sie insofern erheblich zum Trainings­erfolg bei, als der Benutzer seinen Trainingserfolg objek­tiv anhand der sich im Laufe des langfristigen Trainings verändernden Winkelpositionen ablesen kann und somit stark motiviert ist.In a particularly preferred development of the invention it is provided that the fingerboard device comprises an angle measuring device with which the respectively selected angular position of the fingerboard can be read. Such an angle measuring device ensures, on the one hand, that the selected angular position can be reproduced exactly at any time or that the desired angular position can be precisely adjusted and, on the other hand, it contributes significantly to training success insofar as the user objectively evaluates his training success over the course of the long term Training can read changing angular positions and is therefore highly motivated.

Gemäß einem weiteren vorteilhaften Merkmal der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß das Griffbrett relativ zur Halterung um 360 Grad neigungsverstellbar ist, wodurch insbesondere in diesem Fall sowohl die Vorderseite als auch die Rücksei­te des Griffbretts als Grifffläche nutzbar ist, so daß in vorteilhafter Weiterbildung der Erfindung das Griffbrett an beiden gegenüberliegenden Hauptseiten mit Griffstruktu­ren versehen ist, welche zweckmäßigerweise unterschiedlich ausgebildet sind, beispielsweise hinsichtlich der verwende­ten Materialien, der Oberflächenbeschaffenheit und/oder der Form, so daß bereits aufgrund der möglichen Wahl unter­schiedlicher Griffflächen mit unterschiedlichen Greifschwie­rigkeiten die Vielseitigkeit der erfindungsgemäßen Griff­brettvorrichtung weiter gesteigert wird.According to a further advantageous feature of the invention, it is provided that the fretboard can be inclined by 360 degrees relative to the holder, so that in this case in particular both the front and the back of the fretboard can be used as a grip surface, so that in an advantageous development of the invention the fretboard is provided on both opposite main sides with handle structures, which are expediently designed differently, for example with regard to the materials used, the surface quality and / or the shape, so that the versatility of the fingerboard device according to the invention is further increased due to the possible choice of different grip surfaces with different grip difficulties.

In vorteilhafter Weiterbildung bzw. Verallgemeinerung die­ses Gedankens kann das Griffbrett im Querschnitt auch poly­gonförmig, beispielsweise als Dreieck oder Rechteck, ausge­bildet sein, und in diesem Fall sind die drei oder vier (oder ggf. auch mehr) Seiten des Griffbretts (welches in diesem Fall eher als "Griffbalken" zu bezeichnen wäre) hin­sichtlich der Greiftechnik oder Greifschwierigkeit vorzugs­weise unterschiedlich ausgebildet.In an advantageous further development or generalization of this idea, the fingerboard can also be polygonal in cross section, for example as a triangle or rectangle, and in this case the three or four (or possibly more) sides of the fingerboard (which in this case is rather would be referred to as a "handle bar") preferably differently designed in terms of gripping technique or gripping difficulty.

In weiterer vorteilhafter Ausbildung der Erfindung ist vor­gesehen, daß das Griffbrett relativ zur Halterung höhenver­stellbar ist, wodurch das Griffbrett zum einen individuell auf die Höhe des jeweiligen Benutzers einstellbar ist und zum anderen ohne weiteres auch für eine Vielzahl von Trai­nierenden beispielsweise in einem Trainingszentrum verwend­bar ist und dennoch in einfachster Weise auf die für den jeweiligen Benutzer optimale Höhe einstellbar ist.In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention it is provided that the fingerboard is height-adjustable relative to the holder, whereby the fingerboard can be individually adjusted to the height of the respective user on the one hand and on the other hand can also be used easily for a large number of exercisers, for example in a training center, and is nevertheless easily adjustable to the optimum height for the respective user.

Weitere vorteilhafte Merkmale der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den übrigen Ansprüchen sowie aus der nachfolgenden Be­schreibung, in der mehrere Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfin­dung anhand der Zeichnung näher beschrieben werden. In der Zeichnung zeigen in halbschematischer bzw. schematischer Darstellung:

Zunächst wird auf das Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Figuren 1 und 2 Bezug genommen. Die hier dargestellte Griffbrettvor­richtung umfaßt ein Griffbrett 2, welches die Abmessungen von etwa 40 x 80 cm aufweist. Das Griffbrett 2 ist an sei­ner dem Benutzer zugewandten Vorderseite 4 mit diversen Griffstrukturen 6 an sich bekannter Art versehen.First, reference is made to the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 and 2. The fingerboard device shown here comprises a fingerboard 2, which has the dimensions of about 40 x 80 cm. The fingerboard 2 is provided on its front side 4 facing the user with various handle structures 6 of a known type.

Mittels zweier am unteren Rückseitenbereich des Griffbretts 2 befestigter Scharniere 8, welche andererseits an einem vorspringenden Trägerblock 10 befestigt sind, ist das Griff­brett 2 an einer insgesamt mit der Bezugsziffer 12 bezeich­neten Halterung schwenkbar gelagert. Die Halterung 12 ist mittels Schrauben 14 an einer Wand 16 o.dgl. befestigt.By means of two hinges 8 fastened to the lower rear area of the fingerboard 2, which on the other hand are fastened to a projecting support block 10, the fingerboard 2 is pivotably mounted on a holder, generally designated by the reference number 12. The bracket 12 is by means of screws 14 on a wall 16 or the like. attached.

Zu beiden Seiten des Griffbretts 2 ist eine Gewindestange 16 mittels jeweils eines Scharniers 18 an der Halterung 12 schwenkbar gelagert. Die Schwenkachsen der Scharniere 18 und der Scharniere 8 sind untereinander parallel und jeweils horizontal. Die Gewindestangen 16 erstrecken sich durch jeweils ein parallel zur kurzen Seite des Griffbret­tes 2 verlaufendes Langloch 20. Das Griffbrett 2 stützt sich mit seiner Vorderseite 4 an beiden Seiten an einer auf die Gewindestange 16 aufgeschraubten Flügelschraube 22 unter Zwischenschaltung einer Beilagscheibe 24 ab. Eine Feder 26, die auf die Gewindestange 16 aufgesteckt ist, stützt sich mit einem Ende an der Halterung 12 und mit dem anderen Ende an der Rückseite des Griffbretts 2 ab und drückt das Griffbrett 2 nach vorne hin zur Flügelschraube 22. Anstelle der dargestellten Spiralfeder 26 kann auch eine Gasdruckfeder verwendet werden.On both sides of the fingerboard 2, a threaded rod 16 is pivotally mounted on the bracket 12 by means of a hinge 18. The pivot axes of the hinges 18 and the hinges 8 are parallel to one another and in each case horizontal. The threaded rods 16 each extend through an elongated hole 20 running parallel to the short side of the fingerboard 2. The front side 4 of the fingerboard 2 is supported on both sides by a wing screw 22 screwed onto the threaded rod 16 with the interposition of a washer 24. A spring 26, which is attached to the threaded rod 16, is supported at one end on the holder 12 and at the other end on the back of the fingerboard 2 and presses the fingerboard 2 forward toward the wing screw 22. Instead of the spiral spring 26 shown a gas pressure spring can also be used.

Durch Verstellen der beiden Flügelschrauben 22 kann die Neigung des Griffbretts 2 nach Belieben verstellt werden. Im Falle des dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels kann das Griffbrett 2 nach vorne unten etwas über die horizontale Lage hinaus und nach hinten etwas über die vertikale Lage hinaus verschwenkt werden.By adjusting the two wing screws 22, the inclination of the fingerboard 2 can be adjusted as desired. In the case of the illustrated embodiment, this can Fretboard 2 can be swiveled a little beyond the horizontal position towards the front and slightly beyond the vertical position towards the rear.

An der Halterung 12 ist weiterhin ein Winkelmesser 28 befe­stigt, der aus Plexiglas besteht und eine Grad- bzw. Winkel­einteilung 30 aufweist. An der dem Winkelmesser 28 zuge­wandten Seitenfläche des Griffbretts 2 ist eine Markierung 32 angebracht, mit deren Hilfe der jeweils eingestellte Winkel abgelesen werden kann.On the bracket 12, a protractor 28 is also attached, which consists of plexiglass and has a degree or angle 30. On the side surface of the fingerboard 2 facing the protractor 28, a marking 32 is attached, with the aid of which the respectively set angle can be read.

Im folgenden wird auf das zweite Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß Figuren 3 und 4 Bezug genommen. Die Griffbrettvorrichtung umfaßt wiederum eine mittels Schrauben 114 an einer Wand 115 befestigte Halterung 112, welche zwei sich senkrecht hierzu erstreckende seitliche Halter 110 umfaßt, in denen die beiden Enden einer Drehachse 108 eines Griffbretts 102 drehbar gelagert sind. Das Griffbrett 102 ist an seiner einen Seite mit einer Griffstruktur 104 und an seiner ande­ren, gegenüberliegenden Seite mit einer sich gegenüber der Griffstruktur 104 unterscheidenden Griffstruktur 106 verse­hen. Beispielsweise kann, wie im Falle des gezeigten Ausfüh­rungsbeispiels, die eine Griffstruktur 106 stärker struktu­riert sein als die andere Griffstruktur 104.In the following, reference is made to the second exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 3 and 4. The fingerboard device in turn comprises a bracket 112 which is fastened to a wall 115 by means of screws 114 and which comprises two lateral holders 110 extending perpendicularly thereto, in which the two ends of an axis of rotation 108 of a fingerboard 102 are rotatably mounted. The fingerboard 102 is provided on one side with a handle structure 104 and on its other, opposite side with a handle structure 106 that differs from the handle structure 104. For example, as in the case of the exemplary embodiment shown, one handle structure 106 can be structured more strongly than the other handle structure 104.

Die Drehachse 108 des Griffbretts 102 ist mit einem solchen Abstand zur Halterung 112 angeordnet, daß das Griffbrett 102 ungehindert um 360 Grad verschwenkt werden kann. Hier­durch ist es möglich, wahlweise die eine oder andere Seite des Griffbretts zu benutzen.The axis of rotation 108 of the fingerboard 102 is arranged at such a distance from the holder 112 that the fingerboard 102 can be pivoted freely through 360 degrees. This makes it possible to selectively use one or the other side of the fingerboard.

Der Halter 110 weist eine Anzahl von konzentrisch zur Dreh­achse 108 verlaufende Durchgangsbohrungen 116 auf, im vor­liegenden Fall 36 untereinander gleichförmig beabstandete Durchgangsbohrungen, und das Griffbrett 102 weist an entspre­ chender Position eine Sackbohrung 118 auf, so daß die ge­wählte Winkelposition des Griffbretts mittels eines Blockierstifts 120, der von außen durch eine Durchgangsboh­rung 116 hindurch in die Sackbohrung 118 hinein gesteckt werden kann, fixierbar ist. Erforderlichenfalls können am Griffbrett auch zwei diametral gegenüberliegende Sackbohrun­gen 118 vorgesehen sein. Die Durchgangsbohrungen 116 können an einem der Halter 110 oder an beiden Haltern ausgebildet sein.The holder 110 has a number of through bores 116 which run concentrically to the axis of rotation 108, in the present case 36 through bores which are uniformly spaced from one another, and the fingerboard 102 has instructions Chender position on a blind hole 118, so that the selected angular position of the fingerboard can be fixed by means of a locking pin 120, which can be inserted from the outside through a through hole 116 into the blind hole 118. If necessary, two diametrically opposed blind bores 118 can also be provided on the fingerboard. The through bores 116 can be formed on one of the holders 110 or on both holders.

Das dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiel erlaubt ein Verschwen­ken des Griffbretts 102 im Winkelabstand von jeweils 10 Grad. An jeder der Durchgangsbohrungen 106 ist ein entspre­chendes Winkelmaß 122 angebracht, welches das Ablesen der jeweils gewählten Winkelstellung ermöglicht.The exemplary embodiment shown allows the fingerboard 102 to be pivoted at an angular distance of 10 degrees in each case. A corresponding angle measure 122 is attached to each of the through bores 106, which enables the angle position selected in each case to be read.

Im Falle des dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels ist somit ein stufenweises Verstellen des Griffbretts 102 um 360 Grad möglich. In alternativer Weise kann die Verstellung auch stufenlos erfolgen. Zu diesem Zweck kann eine an sich be­kannte Schnellarretierung vorgesehen sein, bei der mittels eines verschwenkbaren Hebels das Griffbrett 102 zur Rota­tion freigegeben wird oder aber in der eingestellten Winkel­lage arretiert wird. Solche Schnellarretierungen sind bei­spielsweise in Zusammenhang mit verschwenkbaren Tafeln in Schulen bekannt.In the case of the exemplary embodiment shown, a gradual adjustment of the finger board 102 by 360 degrees is thus possible. Alternatively, the adjustment can be made continuously. For this purpose, a quick lock known per se can be provided, in which the fingerboard 102 is released for rotation by means of a pivotable lever or is locked in the set angular position. Such quick locks are known, for example, in connection with pivotable boards in schools.

Im Falle des Ausführungsbeispiels gemäß Figur 5 kann die Halterung wie in Zusammenhang mit den Figuren 3 und 4 darge­stellt ausgebildet sein. Das "Griffbrett" 202 ist hierbei im Querschnitt quadratisch und weist somit vier Griffflä­chen 204, 206, 208 und 210 auf, wobei eine jede Grifffläche mit geeigneten Griffstrukturen versehen ist. Die Griffstruk­turen der Griffflächen 204 bis 210 sind jeweils unterschied­lich ausgebildet und der Trainierende hat die Wahl, durch geeignete Positionierung des Griffbretts 202 auszuwählen, an welcher der Griffflächen er trainieren will.In the case of the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 5, the holder can be designed as shown in connection with FIGS. 3 and 4. The "fingerboard" 202 is square in cross section and thus has four grip surfaces 204, 206, 208 and 210, each grip surface being provided with suitable grip structures. The grip structures of the gripping surfaces 204 to 210 are each designed differently and the exerciser has the choice of select suitable positioning of the fingerboard 202 on which the grip surfaces he wants to train.

Im Falle des Ausführungsbeispiels gemäß Figur 6 umfaßt die Halterung zwei an der Wand befestigte, vertikale Schienen 304, an denen ein Halterungsteil 306 in Form einer Platte höhenverstellbar und in der gewünschten Höhe fixierbar be­festigt ist. An dieser Platte 306 ist dann in geeigneter Weise das neigungsverstellbare Griffbrett befestigt, bei­spielsweise in der in Figur 2 oder in der in Figur 4 darge­stellten Art.In the case of the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 6, the holder comprises two vertical rails 304 which are fastened to the wall and on which a holding part 306 in the form of a plate is height-adjustable and can be fixed at the desired height. The incline-adjustable fingerboard is then suitably attached to this plate 306, for example in the manner shown in FIG. 2 or in the manner shown in FIG.
