    Der Trainierende kann nun, wie in der Figur 1 dargestellt, das Trainingsgerät 1 besteigen und wird durch den Sitz 5, das Rükkenteil 6, die Fussstütze 7 und die Beinstützen 8 im Beinbereich fixiert gestützt. Gegebenenfalls können im Übrigen auch noch Beckengurte (nicht dargestellt) vorgesehen sein, um ein Abheben des Gesässes des Trainierenden 2 während der Durchführung der Uebungen zu verhindern.The exerciser can now, as shown in Figure 1, the Mount training device 1 and is through the seat 5, the back part 6, the footrest 7 and the legrests 8 in the leg area fixed supported. If necessary, you can also still lap belts (not shown) may be provided to a Lifting the buttocks of the trainee 2 during the execution to prevent the exercises.

    Aus dieser Einstiegposition kann nun der Trainierende 2 durch Anheben des Hebels 9 über einen Niederhalter 10 auf das Verbindungsmittel 11 einwirken, welches die Gewichtsplatten 4 über Umlenkrollen 12 mit dem Rückenpolster 13 verbinden, wie dies in Figur 2 dargestellt ist. Damit wird das Rückenpolster 13 gegen den oberen Rückenbereich der trainierenden Person 2 gedrückt und entsprechend der Grösse und Statur dieser Person in dieser Lage vorzugsweise durch Einrastung des Hebels 9 in der entsprechenden Position in dieser Ausgangsposition fixiert, wie dies in Figur 3 dargestellt ist.The trainee 2 can now go through from this starting position Lifting the lever 9 via a hold-down device 10 onto the connecting means 11 act, which the weight plates 4th Connect via pulleys 12 to the back cushion 13, like this is shown in Figure 2. This will make the back cushion 13 against the upper back of the exercising person 2 pressed and according to the size and stature of this person in this position, preferably by engaging the lever 9 in the corresponding position fixed in this starting position, as shown in Figure 3.

    Der Trainierende 2 kann nun das Rückentraining durchführen, indem er von der Ausgangsposition durch Beugen des Rumpfes resp. Rückens nach hinten gegen die auf das Rückenpolster 13 einwirkenden Gewichtsplatten 4 den Oberkörper in die belastete Endposition, wie in Figur 4 dargestellt, gelangt. Diese Bewegungen werden nun entsprechend dem Trainingsprogramm mehrfach wiederholt bis sich der Trainierende am Ende wieder in der Ausgangsposition wie in Figur 5 dargestellt befindet.The exerciser 2 can now carry out the back training, by moving from the starting position by bending the trunk resp. Back to the back against the back cushion 13 acting weight plates 4 the upper body in the loaded End position, as shown in Figure 4, arrives. These movements are now multiple according to the training program repeated until the trainee ends up in the Starting position is as shown in Figure 5.

    Durch Absenken des Hebels 9 nach unten, nach dem Lösen der entsprechenden Verriegelung, wird der Niederhalter 10 nach oben bewegt, womit der Eingriff aus dem Verbindungsmittel 11 gelöst wird. Dadurch bewegt sich das Rückenpolster 13 nach oben in die Ausstieg- resp. Ruheposition, wie in Figur 6 dargestellt, und der Trainierende 2 kann in normaler Haltung das Trainingsgerät 1 ohne fremde Hilfe verlassen.By lowering the lever 9 downwards, after releasing the appropriate locking, the hold-down 10 is after moves up, whereby the engagement from the connecting means 11th is solved. As a result, the back cushion 13 moves up in the exit or Rest position, as shown in Figure 6 and the exerciser 2 can do this in a normal posture Leave training device 1 without outside help.

    Die Mechanik des erfindungsgemässen Trainingsgerätes 1 wird nun anhand der Seitenansicht nach Figur 7 im vergrösserten Ausschnitt noch näher erläutert. Als Verbindungsmittel 11 wird hier beispielsweise ein Seil resp. Litze eingesetzt, welche an einem Ende mit einer am Geräterahmen 3 schwenkbar verbundenen Wippe 14 verbunden ist. Diese Wippe 14 ihrerseits ist mit einer Stange 15 verbunden, an welche die Gewichtsplatten 4 in einstellbarer Kombination in Angriff gebracht werden können. The mechanics of the training device 1 according to the invention are now on the basis of the side view according to FIG Excerpt explained in more detail. As a connecting means 11 here, for example, a rope. Stranded wire, which on one end with a pivotally connected to the device frame 3 Rocker 14 is connected. This rocker 14 in turn is with one Rod 15 connected to which the weight plates 4 in adjustable combination can be tackled.

    Die Litze 11 wird über vier Umlenkrollen 12 auf eine um eine Achse verschwenkbare Steuerscheibe 16 geführt und damit befestigt. Das Rückenpolster 13 ist in bekannter Art und Weise über einen Arm 17 mit der Steuerscheibe 16 verbunden. Durch diese Anordnung wird das Rückenpolster 13 durch die Gewichtsplatten 4 in einstellbarer Stärke nach vorne in seine untere Ruheposition bewegt. Diese Ruheposition des Rückenpolsters 13 ist gleichzeitig die Ausgangsposition des Trainierenden 2 für die Durchführung der Uebungen und muss daher an die Grösse und Gestalt des Trainierenden angepasst werden. Diese Anpassung erfolgt nun erfindungsgemäss durch das Vorsehen des Niederhalters 10, welcher vorzugsweise eine Rolle 10' aufweist, welche von oben auf einen waagrechten Bereich 11' der Litze 11 einwirkt. Der Niederhalter 10 ist an einem Ende des schwenkbar am Geräterahmen 3 angebrachten Hebels 9 über eine Stange 10'' befestigt. Der Hebel 9 weist beispielsweise eine über einen Druckknopf lösbare, federbehaftete Klinkensperre auf, welche auf eine Zahnscheibe 18 einwirkt, welche um die Schwenkachse des Hebels 9 angeordnet ist.The strand 11 is over four deflection rollers 12 to one by one Axis pivotable control disc 16 guided and thus attached. The back cushion 13 is in a known manner connected to the control disk 16 via an arm 17. By this arrangement becomes the back cushion 13 by the weight plates 4 in adjustable strength forward to its lower Rest position moved. This rest position of the back cushion 13 is at the same time the starting position of the trainee 2 for the execution of the exercises and must therefore be of the size and Shape of the exerciser. This adjustment now takes place according to the invention by the provision of the hold-down device 10, which preferably has a roller 10 ', which acts on a horizontal region 11 'of the strand 11 from above. The hold-down device 10 is pivotable at one end of the Device frame 3 attached lever 9 attached via a rod 10 ''. The lever 9 has, for example, one over a Push button detachable, spring-loaded latch lock on which acts on a toothed disc 18, which about the pivot axis the lever 9 is arranged.

    In Figur 7 ist nun der Hebel 9 in vom Trainierenden 2 angehobenen Position dargestellt, wobei der Niederhalter 10 die Litze 11 im Bereich 1" nach unten auslenkt. Das Rückenpolster 13 ist durch den Trainierenden 2 (hier nicht dargestellt) in seine obere, belastete Endposition verschwenkt worden, wobei die Wippe 14 ihrerseits nach oben gegen die Kraft der Gewichtsplatten 4 verschwenkt worden ist.In Figure 7, the lever 9 is now raised by the exerciser 2 Position shown, the hold-down 10, the strand 11 deflects downward in the area 1 ". The back cushion 13 is by the trainee 2 (not shown here) in his upper, loaded end position has been pivoted, the Rocker 14 in turn up against the force of the weight plates 4 has been pivoted.

    In Figur 8 ist nun noch die Einstieg- resp. Ruheposition des Trainingsgerätes 1 dargestellt. Dabei ist der Hebel 9 vollständig abgesenkt, wodurch der Niederhalter 10 nach oben verschoben ist und lediglich noch auf der Litze 11 aufliegt, diese aber nicht mehr nach unten auslenkt. Durch die Wirkung der Gewichtsplatten 4 ist die Wippe 14 nach unten in ihre untere Lage gedrückt worden, und das Rückenpolster 13 befindet sich in der Einstieg- resp. Ruheposition des Trainingsgerätes 1.In Figure 8, the entry or. Rest position of the Training device 1 shown. The lever 9 is complete lowered, causing the hold-down device 10 to move upward is and only rests on the strand 11, this but no longer deflects downwards. By the effect of Weight plates 4, the rocker 14 down into its lower Location has been pressed, and the back cushion 13 is in the entry-resp. Rest position of the training device 1.

    Anstelle des Seiles resp. Litze 11 kann beispielsweise auch eine Gliederkette als Verbindungsmittel zwischen Gewichtsplatten 4, resp. Wippe 14, und dem Rückenpolster 13 eingesetzt werden, welche ebenfalls über Umlenkrollen 12 geführt sein kann.Instead of the rope or Strand 11 can also, for example a link chain as a connecting means between weight plates 4, respectively. Rocker 14, and the back cushion 13 used are, which are also guided over pulleys 12 can.

    Durch die Dimensionierung der Hebelarme des Hebels 9 lassen sich die für die beschriebene Funktion aufzubringenden Kräfte im Verhältnis zur eingestellten Belastung durch die Gewichtsplatten 4 derart einstellen, dass sie keine Belastung des Rükkens während der Bedienung darstellen.Leave by dimensioning the lever arms of lever 9 the forces to be exerted for the described function in relation to the load set by the weight plates 4 adjust so that there is no strain on the back display during operation.

    Die vorgestellte Konstruktion weist den grossen Vorteil auf, dass sie sehr einfach im Aufbau ist und damit kostengünstig in derartige Trainingsgeräte integriert werden kann. Ein ganz wesentlicher Vorteil liegt in der einfachen Bedienbarkeit durch den Trainierenden selbst, ohne notwendige Unterstützung resp. Hilfe einer weiteren Person. Ein derartiges Trainingsgerät kann deshalb auch ohne grossen oder gar schädlichen Kraftaufwand benützt werden und kann sich deshalb insbesondere auch für den Therapiebereich eignen. Ein weiterer Vorteil liegt darin, dass bestehende, herkömmliche Trainingsgeräte mit dem Hebelmechanismus auf einfache Weise nachgerüstet werden könnnen.The construction presented has the great advantage that it is very simple to set up and therefore inexpensive in such training equipment can be integrated. A very important one The advantage lies in the ease of use the trainees themselves, without the necessary support or Help of another person. Such a training device can therefore also without great or even harmful effort can be used and can therefore in particular suitable for the therapy area. Another advantage lies in that existing, conventional training equipment with the Lever mechanism can be easily retrofitted.

    Die Erfindung beschränkt sich nicht nur auf das in der vorliegenden Beschreibung erläuterten Trainingsgerät für Rumpfstrekkung, sondern kann in den baulich ähnlich aufgebauten Trainingsgeräten für Rumpfbeugung ebensogut und mit denselben vorteilhaften Wirkungen eingesetzt werden. Derartige Geräte setzen anstelle eines Rückenpolsters 13 ein Schulterpolster 19 ein, welches von vorne gegen den Schulterbereich des Trainierenden 2 in Anschlag gelangt, wie aus Figur 9 in der schematischen Seitenansicht hervorgeht.
