Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a swinging implement, adapted to simulate a rowing exercise.
  • the prior rowing implements are usually divided into two classes: the "belt” rowing implements, which comprise a bar operating as conventional oars, said bar being coupled through a belt to a braking system, and the "arm” implements, comprising two rods simulating the oars and being coupled to a braking system.
  • This instability condition causes the athlete to be subjected to a proprioceptive type of reaction involving all the muscle fascia of the athlete, thereby increasing the effort provided during the exercise.
  • Figure 1 illustrates a typical prior rower, comprising a supporting framework 1, bearing on a floor through supporting elements 2, which supports the framework in a "rigid” manner.
  • the rower comprises a seating plane 3 which can freely slide along the supporting framework 1, foot rests 4, fixed to the supporting framework 1, a flywheel 5 which can freely rotate with respect to a pivot axis 8 fixed to the supporting framework 1, and on the pivot pin of which is entrained a belt 6 ending with a handle 7.
  • Such a rower construction allows the athlete to simulate the rowing exercise, by pulling the handle 7, thereby causing the flywheel 5, which usually comprise a braking system for adjusting the athlete effort, to rotate.
  • the seating plane 3 can freely slide in order to allow the athlete or user to bend and extend his bottom or lower limbs, providing effort through the athlete feet on support elements 4, thereby facilitating the rowing exercise.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide such an implement adapted to simulate a rowing exercise, which, in particular simulates as faithfully as possible, the effort which an athlete or user would provide for rowing through water.
  • a main object of the present invention is to provide such an implement which is adapted to simulate the typical swinging movement of a oar boat in its floating through water, thereby subjecting the user to proprioceptive stimulations inducing said user to hold the implement centered during the exercise.
  • Yet another object is to provide such an implement which can be applied to any types of "rower", even of a conventional existing type.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide such a simulating implement adapted to fully train all the body systems involved in a water rowing exercise, i.e. the muscle (power) system, the cardio-muscle (resistance) system, and the neural-muscular (equilibrium and space movement control) system.
  • a swinging implement designed for simulating a rowing exercise, comprising a supporting framework, adapted to bear on a floor through support elements, and including a seat plane, which can freely slide along said supporting framework, characterized in that said implement further comprises swinging elements adapted to allow said bearing framework to swing with respect to said floor, thereby inducing the implement user to search an equilibrium condition during the exercise.
  • the swinging implement designed for simulating a rowing exercise, according to the invention, and as shown in figure 1, generally comprises a supporting framework 1, bearing on a floor through supporting elements 2 and including a seating plane or panel 3, which can freely slide along the supporting framework 1.
  • the supporting framework 1 is not made rigid with the ground, but rests on arched bases 22, inducing the user or athlete to continuously search to hold an equilibrium condition during the exercise.
  • Said bases are advantageously provided with extension elements 23, designed for preventing the athlete or user from following as the implement center of mass is overcome or exceeded.
  • FIG. 3 shows a possible solution similar to that which has been above disclosed.
  • the flywheel 5 is arranged in a horizontal position, in order to lower the center of mass of the athlete-implement assembly.
  • Figure 4 shows a further embodiment, in which the main structure 41, to which the remaining part of the implement is coupled, is connected through articulated joints 43 to the mentioned bases 42.
  • the two bases 42 are rigid with the bearing ground, but the implement can swing with respect to the ground.
  • Figure 5 shows an implement similar to that shown in figure 4, but including bearing brackets 50 provided for bearing on springs 51 rigid with the bases 42, thereby aiding the athlete or user in holding a centered position, while operating as limit elements for the implement swinging movements, with respect to the axis constituted by the pivot pins 52.
  • the invention has provided a swinging implement, adapted to simulate a rowing exercise, and providing a ground based athlete or user with the same type of training which he/she would obtain in water.
  • the implement can sideway swing, either in a free or guided manner, as shown in the disclosed embodiments, while the invention actually relates to the concept, and is not limited to the shown and/or disclosed embodiments.
  • the used materials, as well as the contingent size and shapes can be any, depending on requirements and the status of the art.
