Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Trainingsgerät für die Arm- und Handmuskulatur und sonstige Körpermuskulatur, bestehend aus einem Paar fest mit einander verbundener rotationssymmetrischer Körper, von denen der eine eine Kugel oder ein Ellipsoid ist und von einer Hand umfasst werden kann, während der andere größere Körper auf die Trainingsfläche aufzusetzen ist.The invention relates to a training device for the arm and hand muscles and other body muscles, consisting of a pair firmly connected with each other rotationally symmetrical body, one of which is a ball or an ellipsoid and can be encompassed by one hand, while the other larger body the training area is set up.

Der Liegestütz ist eine alte und überall bekannte Übung für die Trainierung der Arme. Sie ist jedoch mit dem Nachteil behaftet, daß die Handgelenke bei dieser Übung Drehmomente aufnehmen müssen, die ihnen nicht gesund sind, weil die Hände fest auf dem Boden aufliegen, während die sich streckenden Arme bei dieser ihrer Streckbewegung mit einer Drehbewegung auf die Handgelenke und Sehnen einwirken.The push-up is an old and well-known exercise for the training of the arms. However, it has the disadvantage that the wrists in this exercise must take torques that are not healthy because the hands rest firmly on the ground, while the arms stretching in this her stretching movement with a rotary motion on the wrists and tendons act.

Ein solches Trainingsgerät ist aus der DE 101 35 982 A1 bekannt. Es besteht aus einem Paar von je von einer Hand zu umfassenden Kugel und einem Lagerkörper gebildeten Einheiten. Jede Kugel ist am Ende einer Welle befestigt, die in einem mit seiner ebenen Unterfläche auf die Trainingsfläche zu stellenden Lagerkörper drehbar gelagert ist. Dieses Trainingsgerät wird von dem Trainierenden im Liegestütz benutzt, wobei die Dreh- und Druckbelastung der Handgelenke entscheidend verringert werden kann, so daß das Muskeltraining der Armmuskeln erheblich gesteigert werden kann.Such a training device is from the DE 101 35 982 A1 known. It consists of a pair of units each formed from one hand to a complete ball and a bearing body. Each ball is fixed to the end of a shaft which is rotatably mounted in a bearing body to be provided with its flat lower surface on the training surface bearing body. This training device is used by the exerciser in the push-up, whereby the rotational and compressive load of the wrists can be significantly reduced, so that the muscle training of the arm muscles can be significantly increased.

Ein anderes Trainingsgerät, wie das aus zwei ungleich großen Kugeln und einem diese verbindenden Stab gebildete Hantel der US 2006/0183608 A1 wird so benutzt, daß bei Schwungbewegungen die Hand die kleinere Kugel umspannt. Jedoch wird dieses Gerät wegen der Länge der Achse nicht benutzt, um im Liegestütz auf einem Trainingsboden eingesetzt zu werden.Another training device, such as the dumbbell of US 2006/0183608 A1 formed from two unequal sized balls and a rod connecting them is used so that when swinging the hand spans the smaller ball. However, this device is not used because of the length of the axle to be used in push-up on a training ground.

Auf einem Trainingsboden wird das pferdefußähnliche Kinderspielzeug der US 1 573 362 eingesetzt, das an seiner Oberseite einen halbkugelförmigen Handgriff mit Vertiefungen zum Einlegen der Finger trägt, und an seiner Unterseite wie ein Hufeisen ausgebildet ist.On a training ground, the horse - foot - like children 's toy becomes the US 1,573,362 used, which carries on its upper side a hemispherical handle with recesses for inserting the fingers, and is formed on its underside like a horseshoe.

Eine weitere als US 2006/0014615 A1 erschienene Druckschrift zeigt ein weiteres Trainingsgerät mit einem zylinderförmigen Handgriff, das auf einen Trainingsboden zu stellen ist. Dieses Gerät kann jedoch nicht die Trainingswirkung der eingangs genannten DE 101 35 982 A1 erreichen.Another than US 2006/0014615 A1 Published document shows another training device with a cylindrical handle to be placed on a training ground. However, this device can not the training effect of the aforementioned DE 101 35 982 A1 to reach.

Die Erfindung vermeidet die Nachteile des Standes der Technik. Es ist die Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Gerät zur sehr wirksamen Trainierung der Hand- und Armmuskulatur zu schaffen, das einfach aufgebaut ist und den verschiedenen Stufen des Trainings anpaßbar ist.The invention avoids the disadvantages of the prior art. It is the object of the invention to provide a device for very effective training of the hand and arm muscles, which is simple and the various levels of training is adaptable.

Die Erfindung geht von dem eingangs genannten Trainingsgerät aus und besteht darin, daß der größere Körper ebenfalls eine Kugel oder ein Ellipsoid ist und daß der größere Körper aus mehreren scheibenförmigen Teilen besteht, die senkrecht zu der durch beide Kugelmittelpunkte verlaufenden Achse stehen und die fest miteinander zusammenfügbar und von einander trennbar sind.The invention is based on the above-mentioned training device and is that the larger body is also a ball or an ellipsoid and that the larger body consists of several disc-shaped parts which are perpendicular to the axis passing through both ball centers and the axis firmly together and are separable from each other.

Dieses Trainingsgerät ist universeller einsetzbar und kann den einzelnen Stufen des Trainings angepaßt werden, weil die größere Kugel aus mehreren scheibenförmigen Teilen besteht, die senkrecht zu der durch beide Kugelmittelpunkte verlaufenden Achse stehen. Dann besteht die Möglichkeit, einzelne Scheiben aus der voluminöseren Kugel herauszunehmen, insbesondere die unterste Scheibe, eine Kugelkalotte, so daß die größere Kugel nicht mehr rollen kann, sondern fest auf dem Boden steht, was es dem Anfänger leichter macht, sich an dieses Trainingsgerät zu gewöhnen und mit diesem Trainingsgerät zu üben.This training device is universally applicable and can be adapted to the individual stages of training, because the larger ball consists of several disc-shaped parts, which are perpendicular to the axis passing through both ball centers. Then there is the possibility to remove individual discs from the voluminous ball, especially the bottom disc, a spherical cap, so that the larger ball can not roll, but is firmly on the ground, which makes it easier for beginners to get to this training device get used to and practice with this exercise equipment.

Hierdurch ist eine Kombination zweier fest miteinander verbundener kugelförmiger Körper geschaffen, die sich auf dem Trainingsboden in jeder Richtung frei bewegen kann, wodurch erreicht wird, daß keine Drehmomente bei der Benutzung auf das Handgelenk ausgeübt werden, obwohl alle Muskeln und Sehnen der Hand und des Armes beansprucht und dadurch trainiert werden.This provides a combination of two fixedly interconnected spherical bodies which are free to move on the training floor in any direction, thereby ensuring that no torques are exerted on the wrist in use, although all the muscles and tendons of the hand and arm be claimed and trained by it.

Bei diesem Trainingsgerät ist es zweckmäßig, wenn der größere Körper mindestens doppelt so groß ist wie der von der Hand zu umfaßende kleinere Körper.In this training device, it is expedient if the larger body is at least twice as large as the smaller body to be covered by the hand.

Vorteilhaft ist es bei diesem Trainingsgerät, wenn der von der Hand zu umfassende kleinere Körper mit der benachbarten Scheibe des größeren Körpers fest verbunden ist und wenn beide Körper eine sie verbindende Achse aufweisen, die kugelgelagert sein sollte.It is advantageous in this training device when the hand to be comprehensive smaller body with the adjacent disc of the larger body is firmly connected and when both bodies have an axis connecting them, which should be ball bearing.

Der Einsatzbereich dieses Trainingsgerätes kann dadurch, daß zwischen bestimmten Scheiben der größeren Kugel elastomerische Scheiben zur Dämpfung angeordnet sind, in seinem Anwendungsbereich erweitert werden.The field of application of this training device can be extended by the fact that between certain discs of the larger ball elastomeric discs are arranged for damping, in its scope.

Zur Anpassung an verschiedene Handgrößen kann es bei diesem Trainingsgerät von Vorteil sein, wenn die von der Hand um-spannte Kugel auswechselbar ist.To adapt to different hand sizes, it may be advantageous in this training device, when the hand-spanned ball is interchangeable.

Das Trainingsgerät besteht aus einem Paar von je zwei miteinander fest verbundenen Kugeln 1,2, einer Kugel 1, die von der Hand des Trainierenden zu umfassen ist, und einer zweiten, mit der ersten Kugel 1 fest verbundenen weiteren größeren Kugel 2, die auf der Trainingsfläche aufzusetzen ist. Dabei ist die zweitgenannte Kugel 2 mehr als doppelt so groß wie die erstgenannte, von der Hand zu umspannende Kugel 1. Die größere Kugel besteht aus mehreren scheibenförmigen Teilen 3,4,5,6, die senkrecht zu der durch beide Kugelmittelpunkte verlaufenden Achse 7 stehen. Diese Scheiben 3,4,5,6 sind fest zusammenfügbar, aber auch von einander trennbar. Zumindest zwei sind gegeneinander drehbar.The training device consists of a pair of two mutually firmly connected balls 1,2, a ball 1, which is to be encompassed by the hand of the trainee, and a second, with the first ball 1 firmly connected to another larger ball 2, on the Training surface is set up. Here, the second-mentioned ball 2 is more than twice as large as the former, to be spanned by the hand ball 1. The larger ball consists of several disc-shaped parts 3,4,5,6, which are perpendicular to the axis extending through both ball 7 axis , These discs 3,4,5,6 are firmly joined, but also separable from each other. At least two are rotatable against each other.

Dieses Trainingsgerät kann man durch Abnahme oder Hinzufügen einzelner Scheiben in seiner Größe vertikal und horzontal verändern. Das ist dadurch ermöglicht, daß die von der Hand umspannte Kugel 1 mit der benachbarten Scheibe der größeren Kugel fest verbunden ist, die übrigen Scheiben aber abnehmbar sind und daß eine beide Kugeln 1,2 bzw. die einzelnen Teile der Kugel 2 eine sie verbindende Achse 7 aufweisen.This exerciser can be changed vertically and horizontally by decreasing or adding individual slices in size. This is made possible that the spanned by the hand ball 1 is firmly connected to the adjacent disc of the larger ball, but the remaining discs are removable and that a two balls 1,2 and the individual parts of the ball 2, an axis connecting them 7 have.

Diese Achse kann mittels eines Kugellagers 8 gelagert sein, um die Drehbewegung der einzelnen Scheiben 3,4,5,6 für den Trainierenden zu erleichtern, es können aber auch zwischen bestimmten Scheiben der Kugel ein Elastomerring 9 zur Dämpfung angeordnet sein.This axis can be supported by means of a ball bearing 8 to facilitate the rotational movement of the individual discs 3,4,5,6 for the trainees, but it can also be arranged between certain discs of the ball an elastomeric ring 9 for damping.

Die von der Hand umspannte Kugel 1 kann auswechselbar sein, um das Gerät der Handgröße des Trainierenden anpassen zu können.The spanned by the hand ball 1 can be interchangeable to adapt the device of the hand size of the exerciser can.

Der Trainierende beginnt sein Training mit diesem Gerät so, daß er das Gerät durch Abnahme der Scheiben 4,5,6 verkleinert und nur mit der Kugel 1 und der oberen Hälfte der Kugel 2 arbeitet, um später weitere Scheiben hinzuzufügen.The trainee begins his training with this device so that he reduced the device by removing the discs 4,5,6 and works only with the ball 1 and the upper half of the ball 2, to later add more discs.

Wie die Ausführung der Fig. 3 und 4 zeigen, kann die obere Hälfte der Kugel 2 auch hohl als Glocke ausgeführt sein.Like the execution of 3 and 4 show, the upper half of the ball 2 can also be designed hollow as a bell.
