Definitions

  • this invention relates to a machine intended for muscular training of the type that comprises a chair carried by a stand, which chair is formed from a seat and a backrest, as well as at least one manually actuatable training or working element, which is movable against the action of a counter-load device connected to the training element via a load-transmitting mechanism.
  • a previously known, commercially available machine of the above generally mentioned kind includes as training element a pair of arms, which are placed on both sides of the chair of the machine and are turnable against the action of the load (usually progressive) exerted by the counter-load device.
  • the training arms are turnable in the direction downward/forward from a raised initial position, in which the arms form an acute angle of approximately 40° to the backrest of the chair.
  • the training arms are turnable in the direction upward/rearward from a lowered initial position approximately on a level with the seat of the chair.
  • the training arm positioned beside the chair constitutes an obstacle, irrespective of the same assuming the raised initial position thereof or the lowered initial position thereof, because the training arm makes it impossible to bring in the seat of the wheel chair from the side to the immediate vicinity of the seat of the machine chair.
  • the training arm retreats the wheel chair from the machine chair, and on the other hand, the same is in the way for the disabled's body.
  • Characteristic of the majority of chairbound persons is that the ability to move the legs is entirely or partly lost, while the rest of the body, i.e., from the waist and upward, may have good or even well-developed moving ability and strength.
  • a significant number of disabled have, with the exception of the legs, so good a physique that they compete in speed racing with wheel chair.
  • Crucial for the capability of driving a wheel chair forward at high speed is the musculature in the shoulders and arms, in particular the triceps of the upper arms. This means that training of the muscles in machines of the above-related kind is of great interest to many disabled.
  • a problem for persons having paralyzed legs is - besides the entering problems - that the legs cannot be used in order to manipulate operating pedals or the like, by means of which the load-transmission mechanism of the machine could be readjusted or influenced.
  • the load-transmission mechanism of the machine could be readjusted or influenced.
  • foot lever pedals it is inconceivable to be able to effect a moving aside of working arms or working elements of the chair to positions in which they would not prevent entering of the machine chair from the side.
  • US4402502 discloses a machine for muscular training according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a primary object of the invention is to provide a muscular training machine, the load-transmission mechanism of which acting between the counter-load device and a training element, e.g., an arm, is manipulatable without using foot pedals, more precisely in such a way that the loading action of the counter-load device on the training element can be eliminated if required.
  • An additional object is to provide a training machine the chair of which can be entered in a way expedient for the disabled, namely from the side, without the obstruction from any training element.
  • the invention is based on the idea to provide the backrest included in the machine chair with an upper operating member that is movable, in particular turnably movable, and via a transmission connect the same to a locking device, by means of which the load-transmission mechanism between the counter-load device and the training element of the machine can be inactivated if required.
  • such machines including two training arms being present beside the chair and intended for the training of, for instance, biceps and triceps, can be constructed in such a way that the training arms in the initial positions thereof are so highly raised that they cannot be conveniently gripped by someone sitting in the chair, i.e., in positions in which the chair seat is freely accessed from the side.
  • a particular actuating lever can then be used, which via a secondary transmission can turn down the training arms in the direction of the seat.
  • the action of the counter-load device on the working arms can temporarily be eliminated, namely by the fact that the user by means of her/his head presses the operating member rearward and thereby activates said locking device, which in turn locks the load-transmission mechanism in a position in which the working arms are not loaded by the counter-load device.
  • the machine shown in fig. 1 includes a chair 2 carried by a stand 1, as well as a counter-load device in its enti rety designated 3.
  • This counter-load device may advantageously - though not necessarily - be of the type that includes a magazine or a set of weights 4, a suitable number of which can be selected and be lifted up via a hauling rope 5 laid over two upper return wheels that are mounted in a top piece included in an upright frame 6.
  • two guide bars 7 are included for the guiding of the weights 4.
  • the number of weights that are to be lifted is determined by a clip 8, which is insertable between nearby weights in the set.
  • an angular handle 10 is attached.
  • the frame 6 of the counter-load device is stiffly united to the rest of the stand 1 and thus constitutes an integrated part of the same.
  • the main components of the chair 2 consist in the example of a seat 11 and a backrest 12.
  • the exemplified seat 11 is of a quadrangular basic shape, and has a front edge 13 as well as two side edges, the one of which being visible in fig. 1 and turned from the counter-load device 3 is designated 14.
  • the stand 1 On the side of the machine that is turned from the counter-load device, the stand 1 includes two legs 15, 16, between which a stay 17 extends on which a post 18 is attached, which carries the backrest 12.
  • the front leg 15 carries the seat 11, while the rear leg 16 at the top is arched and connected to the post 18 in order to support the same.
  • training or working elements in the form of arms 19 are arranged, which are turnable in the direction downward/forward against the action of the counter-load device 3.
  • the loading force exerted by a selected package of weights 4, and which is to be overcome by turning the training arms 19 in the direction downward/forward, is transferred to the training arms via a load transmission, in which an oval rope sheave 20 is included, which in a conventional way, thanks to the oval shape thereof, requires a progressively increasing force from the training person in order to lift the selected package of weights from a lower position to an upper position.
  • the oval rope sheave 20 is rigidly connected to a rotatably mounted shaft 21 (see also figs. 4-6 ), which includes a second, preferably circular rope sheave 22. More precisely, the two opposite ends of the shaft 21 are, on one hand, mounted in the above-mentioned rear leg 16, and on the other hand, in a second rear leg 16a in the area of the counter-load device.
  • a third sheave 23 is rigidly connected, which is included in a locking device, which will be described more in detail below.
  • a rope 24 is drawn to a fastener on a cross piece 25, which extends between the two training arms 19 and stiffly unites these with each other.
  • the rear ends of the arms 19 are articulately connected to a common, horizontal shaft 26, which is attached on a bracket projecting from the back side of the leg 16.
  • the load-transmitting mechanism between the counter-load device 3 and the training arms 19 thus consists of the two ropes 5, 24 and the turning axis 21 together with its two rope sheaves 20, 22.
  • an actuating lever 28 is articulately connected, which via a load-transmitting arrangement 29 is connected to the training arms 19 in order to transform a forward-directed oscillatory motion of the operaing lever 28 to a likewise forward-directed oscillatory motion of the training arms 19.
  • the load-transmitting arrangement 29 comprises a push rod 46, which upon turning forward of the lever 28 is pressed forward and actuates a turnably mounted joint plate 47, which in turn is articulately connected to a drawbar 48.
  • This drawbar 48 (see also fig. 5 ) runs through a collar 49, which is articulately connected to the cross piece 25 of the arms 19. At the top, the drawbar 48 has a stopping element 50.
  • the drawbar 48 conveys the arms 19 to the position shown in fig. 4 , and which is determined by the highest position of the collar 49 along the drawbar 48. From this position, the arms 19 can freely be turned downward, the collar 49 moving downward along the drawbar 48.
  • a characteristic feature of the invention is that an operating member 30 is movably connected to the upper part of the backrest 12 and via a transmission 31 connected to a locking device, in which the sheave 23 is included.
  • the operating member 30 has the shape of a plate, which at the lower edge thereof is articulately connected to the upper, substantially horizontal edge of the backrest 12.
  • the joint 32 between the plate 30 and the backrest 12 may advantageously be in the form of a conventional hinge, although also other types of joints are feasible. As is seen in fig.
  • a compression spring 33 acts between, on one hand, the back side of the plate 30 and on the other hand an upper portion of the post 18, which spring always aims to press the plate 30 forward to an inactive initial position, substantially in the extension of the plane of the backrest 12.
  • the post 18 may consist of a box or U profile, which at the top is cut-off, as is shown at 34 in fig. 6 . Thanks to this cutting-off 34, the plate 30 can be turned rearward at an angle (10-20°), which is determined by the shape of the cutting-off.
  • the operating plate 30 - like conventional headrests - is located on such a level above the seat 11 that the plate can be actuated by a user's head or neck. More precisely, the user can turn the operating plate rearward by bending her/his head rearward while pressing against the front side of the operating plate. Such rearward folding of the operating plate 30 takes place against the action of the compression spring 33.
  • the locking device co-operating with the operating plate 30 includes, in addition to the sheave 23, a rocker element in its entirety designated 35, which is rockable by being connected to the stand, more precisely the leg 16, via a joint 36 (see fig. 6 ).
  • the rocker element includes first and second pairs of laterally spaced-apart fingers 37, 38, which are mutually attached on the pin that forms the joint 36.
  • the motion-transmitting transmission between the operating plate 30 and the rocker element 35 consists of a form-stiff bar 31 or the like. At the upper end thereof, said bar is connected to the operating plate 30 via a first joint 40.
  • the opposite, lower end of the bar 31 is connected to the rocker element 35 via a second joint 41 in the form of a pin, which extends between the first pair of fingers 37.
  • a transverse pin 42 extends in the area between the free ends of the second pair of fingers 38.
  • This pin 42 can co-operate with a hook or nose 43 (see fig. 4 ), which is formed in the periphery of the sheave 23. Behind and below this nose 43, the pin 42 can be hooked on.
  • the two training arms 19 as well as the actuating lever 28 are raised to rear/upper end positions.
  • the selected package of weights rests above the clip 8 in a lower end position in which the rope 5 is tensionless.
  • the chair of the machine can be entered conveniently not only from the front, but also from the side that is turned from the counter-load device 3.
  • a wheel chair can be run up to the immediate vicinity of the left (as seen from the point of view of the user) side edge 14 of the seat 11, not only as a consequence of the left training arm 19 being raised in a high position in the immediate vicinity of the backrest 12, but also as a consequence of the fact that the parts of the stand 1 positioned below the seat are located inside a conceived vertical plane adjacent to the side edge 14.
  • Entering of the machine chair 2 is furthermore facilitated by the fact that the seat 11 is vertically movable by having a sleeve 44 on the bottom side thereof, which sleeve is adjustable in relation to the leg 15 and lockable in different positions in relation to the same.
  • the seat of the machine chair can be set on the same level over the substructure as the seat of the wheel chair in question. If required, the training person can also use the handle 10 in order to pull over his/her body on the chair seat.
  • the lower part of the body may be fastened by means of a belt 45 or the like.
  • the training arms 19 are difficult to access for the user. For most users, the arms are even impossible to grip as long as the user is sitting on the seat.
  • the lever 28 is used, which is turned down by means of the right hand of the user to the front/lower end position shown in figs. 2 and 4 . This turning-down of the operating lever together with the training arms takes place against the action of the loading force from the selected package of weights 4, which via the load-transmitting mechanism of the machine is lifted higher and higher in proportion to the turning-down of the arms.
  • the locking device 23, 35 is activated. While the user still holds the lever 28 pressed down, by bending his/her head rearward, he/she can bring the operating member or plate 30 to turn rearward from the initial position thereof to the position shown in figs. 2 and 4 . In doing so, the motion of the operating plate 30 is transferred, via the transmission bar 31, to the rocker element 35, which by rocking rearward/downward will press the pin 42 against the part of the sheave 23 that is situated behind/below the nose 43. As long as the plate 30 is turned rearward, the locking pin 42 abuts against the periphery of the sheave 23.
  • the user can bring back the operating lever 28 a distance and drop down the package of weights.
  • the training arms 19 are locked in the intermediate positions thereof according to figs. 2 and 4 , because the described locking device locks the turning axis 21 and temporarily eliminates the action of the package of weights on the training arms 19 as well as the lever 28.
  • the lever 28 In the locked state of the turning axis, the lever 28 can be let go and return to the turned-up initial position thereof.
  • the user can smoothly grip the training arms 19 lowered to the starting position according to figs. 2 and 4 .
  • the training arms can be pressed down at the same time as the user bends his/her head forward so that the contact of the neck with the operating plate 30 ceases.
  • the spring 33 brings back the plate 30 to the initial position.
  • the locking pin 42 of the rocker element 35 is detached from the engagement with the nose 43, i.e., the locking action of the locking device is brought to cease.
  • the action of the counter-load device 3 on the training arms is activated again, which by being brought to and fro between upper and lower positions can offer the user the desired training.
  • the training arms 19 are allowed to return to the starting or intermediate position according to figs. 2 and 4 , besides which the locking device 23, 35 is activated by means of the operating plate 30. In such a way, the turning axis 21 is locked again, and then the user can move over his/her right hand from the right training arm 19 to the lever 28. When this has taken place, the locking device is detached again, the weight of the still elevated package of weights being resumed by the lever. In such a way, the user can also let go of the left training arm, in order to conclusively bring back the training arms 19 smoothly, by means of the lever, to the initial position according to fig. 1 . After release of the fastening belt 45, the user can leave the machine chair, something which in the case of a disabled takes place by moving the body towards the left from the seat 11 to the seat of a wheel chair positioned beside the machine chair.
  • a substantial advantage of the machine according to the invention is that the load-transmitting mechanism included in the machine can be inactivated in a state in which the action of the counter-load device on the training arms or elements temporarily is eliminated, more precisely by means of a simple bending of the head of the user in the backward direction against the operating plate.
  • the machine entirely without operating pedals and with working arms that in the initial positions thereof do not constitute any obstacle for lateral motion of a person from a wheel chair to the machine chair (and vice versa).
  • a training machine is provided that is genuinely expedient for chairbound persons.
  • the machine may include any counter-load device that has the capability of exerting a resistance via a load-transmitting mechanism against the motion of one or more training elements, such as arms.
  • the load-transmitting mechanism may be designed in many other ways than just in the form of a turning axis having rope sheaves and ropes.
  • a mechanism or device may be used that transmits the requisite counter load in pneumatic and/or hydraulic way.
  • the requisite transmission between the operating member movably mounted on the backrest and the locking device for the elimination of the action of the counter-load device may be realized in another way than in the form of just a push rod, e.g., in the form of a tensile force-transmitting element.
  • the locking device may be modified in various ways by including other components than just a rocker element in combination with a sheave having a nose.
  • the primary function of the backrest is to carry an operating member arranged for the adjustment of a locking device in such a way that the operating member can be actuated by means of head motions of the training person.
  • the backrest may accordingly be replaced by any carrier or upright having the capability of locating the operating member on a desired level above the chair seat.
