Definitions
- the present invention concerns a foam implement that may be used in connection with physical exercises and play, where the foam implement contains at least two wedge-shaped foam modules, where at least two wedge-shaped foam modules interact with other foam modules for forming at least one continuous inclining surface, where the foam modules interact with each other so that combined they constitute a foam implement.
- Foamed implements are often used in gymnastics, where they are used as landing mattresses or the like.
- US 4,802,249 describes a joinable insert for a bed for use in e.g. hospitals, where a wedge may be disposed under a patient's head, while another wedge may be placed under the patient's legs. Between the two wedges, a flat connecting element is provided, causing that the two wedges can be disposed with different spacing.
- the patent describes that the three mentioned components may be collapsed and placed in a trunk.
- US 5,964,634 discloses a toy set consisting of modular building elements made of a flexible foam material, where the joining between plane surfaces is effected by means of e.g. Velcro®.
- US 2004/0079297 discloses a staircase that may be used for e.g. dogs which, maybe because of age, have difficulty in jumping up on furniture.
- the staircase is formed by foam modules that are fastened to each other by means of Velcro®.
- AT 400001 discloses a pillow-like springboard, which is provided with a rigid spring plate at the top side and a rigid bearing plate at the underside. Between the two plates is provided a spring unit consisting of wood or carbon. Between the spring plate and the bearing plate there is provided a wedgeshaped or quadratic core made of a resilient foam material with open pores.
- DK utility model publication DK 2002 00323 U3 that describes a foam implement for gymnastics and play.
- the invention concerns the combination of two foam parts, of which one part is entirely wedge-shaped, and the other part partially wedge-shaped.
- the two foam parts may be used as independent implements or may be assembled into one implement.
- One part is formed as a small wedge, whereas the other is formed as a rectangular mattress extended at one end with a wedge-shaped part.
- the two foam parts may be assembled into a landing mat or a large wedge.
- the invention in question provides many opportunities for set-ups with fewer implements that require less space for storage.
- US 4,905,330 concerns five cushion pieces pivotally interconnected to provide multiple furniture and exercise pieces.
- a pair of wedge-shaped pieces are pivotally interconnected to a rectangular piece for pivoting about a common axis.
- a pair of half size rectangular pieces are pivotally interconnected to each other with one of the pieces being pivotally connected to the rectangular piece at an edge diagonally opposite the pivotal connection of the rectangular piece to the two wedge pieces.
- DE8528264U1 concerns cubic or triangular bodies, which bodies are hollow but made of a foamed material where the outer side of the cubic or triangular bodies are provided with a Velcro fastening system.
- DE29609784U1 concerns elements for making a toy house. These toy elements are formed as squares or triangles, and they are provided with fastening materials on some surfaces.
- US4253661 concerns thick, resilient flexible pad with a sloped top surface and sloped sides provides for safe, non-jarring leg exercises involving running squatting squat-running, leg joint pivoting, balance and the like.
- One of the limitations of the above mentioned invention is that it is not well suited for extension in height, as for example by constructing a higher landing wedge. Furthermore, the number of possible combinations is limited. A further limitation by the invention is that the large wedge takes up relatively much space in connection with transport and storage. Furthermore, the large wedge may be difficult and cumbersome to handle in connection with transport.
- the purpose of the present invention is to provide a simple system for making foam implements from a number of smaller foamed modules, so that the greatest possible flexibility is achieved with regard to designing, storing and handling of such implements.
- fastening means releasably connect the foam modules in a first operational situation, and the fastening means are released when the foam modules are stored.
- the invention further provides possibility of building and assembling a foam implement by means of only one kind of foam module, reducing the number of different single implements that typically form part of a set-up used in connection with gymnastic exercises or a show.
- the foam modules may have one or more differing surface materials.
- the foam core may be coated with different types of fabric, tarpaulin or other suited material.
- the underside of the foam modules may advantageously be equipped with a skid proof layer, reducing the displacement sometimes occurring in connection with application on gym floors etc.
- the foam modules may advantageously contain one or more foam types.
- the foam modules may be constructed with a very definite hardness, weight or yieldability. It is thus possible to construct an implement which is adapted to various disciplines, as e.g. jumping exercises, where a good and efficient take-off is necessary. It is also a possibility to combine different foam modules with each their properties into an assembled foam implement.
- At least one of the foam modules is equipped with a shock-absorbing top side.
- This shock-absorbing top side may be implemented by means of a layer with hard foam material or the like.
- Such a surface will be particularly suited in connection with jumping exercises, where the surface contributes to providing a better and more efficient take-off, or maybe reduce the physical loads occurring in connection with a landing.
- some of the foam modules are fitted with fastening devices.
- the fastening devices may e.g. be VELCRO® or similar material.
- Fig. 1 On Fig. 1 is seen a cross-section of a landing wedge 10 consisting of a foam core 13, a shock-absorbing plate 12 and a fastening device 14 sewn thereon.
- the foam core 13 may consist of one or more different foam materials with properties as e.g. yieldability or weight.
- the fastening device 14 can be made of VELCRO® which is typically sewn onto the module at one or more of its sides.
- Fig. 2 shows the wedge-shaped foam module 20 in perspective view, containing a shock-absorbing plate 22.
- the shock-absorbing plate 22 is disposed at the top side of the wedge-shaped foam module 20, and may e.g. be made of a harder foam material than the foam core, in order to make the foam implement more firm in the surface. Hereby is obtained a suitable and gentle landing zone for gymnasts.
- the core of the foam module may be coated with a surface 25 of tarpaulin or fabric which is hard-wearing and easy to clean.
- Fig. 3 shows an example of the invention in the form of a landing wedge containing four wedge-shaped foam modules 31, 32, 33, 34, all having the same shape.
- the foam modules are held together by fastening devices so that they do not separate by loading.
- Fig. 4 shows a landing wedge 45 in perspective view, which is built up of four wedge-shaped foam modules 41, 42, 43, 44, where the landing zone on the foam module 41 contains a shock-absorbing plate 46.
- the foam modules 41, 42, 43, 44 have identical shape, but they do not necessarily have the same surface or foam core. In that way it is possible to combine and assemble foam modules with different properties into one implement having one or more properties. Also, it is not necessary to dispose the fastening devices in the same way on all the foam modules 41, 42, 43, 44.
- the fastening devices may also be straps.
- Fig. 5 On Fig. 5 is seen the construction of a landing wedge in principle, consisting of four foam modules 51, 52, 53, 54 which are held together by fastening devices 55, 56, 57, 58.
- the fastening devices 55, 56, 57, 58 may e.g. be VELCRO® or similar sewn thereon which is mounted on suitable sides of the foam modules 51, 52, 53, 54. In order to make the drawing as simple as possible, only four fastening devices are shown.
