Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the technical field of training devices and apparatus for strengthening the muscles by overcoming a counterforce, especially such a device for swimming, which makes a counter-swimming pool dispensable.
  • the DE 20 2006 011 958 U1 describes a restraint system and in the main feature only a special breakpoint on the pool edge and in the further embodiment of a rubber line, which is attached by means of a hip belt attached to the hip of the float there.
  • the DE 20 2006 013 802 U1 describes in further development of the technical solution DE 20 2006 011 958 U1 an extremely small swimming pool as a basin with mounts for the technical solution after DE 20 2006 011 958 U1 , In DE 203 19 932 U1
  • a rope is tied to a point located outside a swimming pool.
  • the rope ends with the edge of the pool.
  • a rubber rope is attached, the ends of which can be connected to the feet of the float.
  • Such a device exerts a tensile force on the ankles and thereby acts on an extended leg posture of the float out. It thus restricts the leg movements of the swimmer sustainably in contrast to the usual conditions in a counter swimming pool.
  • Such a device allows only one meaningful training of the arms, but is not suitable for realistically reshaping the conditions in a counter swimming pool.
  • the invention Based on this prior art and its deficiencies, the invention, the task and objective underlying the creation of a device that makes it possible, with low cost, the effect of countercurrent swimming by means of counter-swimming pools in small pools, including domestic pools , for very strong swimmers, swimmers and swimmers who do not want to miss the training effect of swimming pads to imitate. It is another object of the invention to be able to use such a device for the rehabilitation of paraplegics in physiotherapeutic swimming pools and for other physiotherapeutic purposes. This device is intended to be a low investment and almost free of maintenance and completely free of energy expenditure.
  • this task and objective is achieved by the features set forth in the protection claim / for the design of the arrangement elements and the spatial form of the device according to the invention.
  • the inventive device for the substitution of counter-swimming pools, especially as a training device for swimming in sport swimmers but also for the home operation in small pools and the beneficial effects of this technical solution arise from u.a. following.
  • This device consists inter alia of a rope restraint system.
  • forced swimming with continuous propulsion through the swimming movement creates a balance between train and return on elastic and non-elastic elements and the float, which causes due to the much greater propulsion and buoyancy in the upper body, that the float from the horizontal into a according to its exerted propulsion upright inclined to almost vertical position, since the buoyancy of the legs even using fins is not sufficient.
  • this circumstance also leads to serious deficiencies of the prior art described at the outset, which in part lead to the lack of functionality of the above-described technical solutions. This is prevented by the later to be named buoyancy bodies on the legs, arranged in the fastening device.
  • this device initially consists of a rope which is to be fastened to the basin.
  • a non-elastic / non-stretchable rope variable length used and thus unintentional changes in location (reaching the front edge of the pelvis by overstretching of the rubber rope in too much force) of the swimmer in the narrow basin prevented.
  • This rope should have such a length, which is adapted to the length of the water basin and the float that the swimmer with applied device still enough space between the soles, possibly the toes, and the rear edge of the tank on the one hand and enough space between the fingertips and on the other hand has the front edge of the pool.
  • This non-elastic variable length rope is mounted in the rear pelvic area as required above or below the float level, whereby the swimming style, freestyle or breaststroke can play a role.
  • a link another short held elastic / stretchable rope, preferably as a rubber cord and in a length which corresponds approximately to the thigh length of the float, formed, which merely to compensate for discontinuities (jerking movements), provided, and arranged a further link.
  • this connection member in a first variant of the overall device, two elastic / extensible ropes are spread apart at an angle ⁇ when the device is attached to the body of the float at an angle, which leads to the connecting element at the respective fastening device.
  • a double as long rope as the only rope to be mounted in an eye of this link which then spreads ⁇ according to the two ropes at an angle when the attachment to the vg connecting element of the respective fastening device.
  • These apart-spreading elastic ropes should have a length which is dimensioned between about a thigh length to about a leg length of the float, these ropes should preferably be designed as rubber ropes.
  • a fastening device is provided for attachment of the device according to the invention.
  • buoyancy body preferably designed as a flexible PE foam body with a rubberized and roughened inside.
  • the fastening device is attached as required with or without Auftriebsan redesignteil on the thighs or on the lower legs of the float.
  • the connecting member After the non-elastic / non-expandable variable length rope, the connecting member the further briefly held elastic / stretchable rope and the other link a fastener consisting of two straps with padding follows , which is mounted on the float over the shoulders and the padding is flexible but not rubber-elastic designed.
  • the straps thus allow for a classic breaststroke approximately adequate movement, ie one between a slightly upright and a flat to the water surface attitude of the float body. Due to the elastic resistance of the short elastic / stretchable rope between the two connecting links, there was also an additional conditioning of the abdominal muscles with each stroke. If the device according to the invention is fastened by means of a suction cup to the bottom of the water basin, it is also used Strengthening of the back muscles is achieved every time the body of the swimmer is raised.
  • the device consists of a non-elastic / non-stretchable rope 5 variable length and a diameter of 5 mm, which is attached to the pool and carries on the side of the float a connecting member 6 in the form of a snap hook.
  • a connecting member 6 in the form of a snap hook.
  • another short bundled rubber rope 3 consisting of 4 parallel ropes with the Diameters of 4 mm and 750 mm length.
  • This snap hook 6 is followed by another snap hook 6.
  • this snap hook 6 are also two bundled rubber cables 2 a length of 750 mm (alternatively 1 rope double length) mounted with the diameters of the individual ropes of 4 mm, in turn in the rubber loops 7 of 50 x 120 mm - rubber band on the buoyancy body 1 of Fastening device 10 are mounted.
  • the fastening device 10 consists of the above buoyancy bodies 1 made of PE foam, gummed and roughened inside, with the dimensions 210 mm x 260 mm x 25 mm to which by means of plastic screws 9 two flexible bands 4 are attached with Velcro.
  • This fastening device 10 is bent around the upper or lower leg and closed fitting.
  • a fastening device 10 is mounted in the float-side snap hooks 6, which are made of two straps 8 with padding, flexible but not rubber-elastic, have a length of 750 mm and are mounted on the swimmer over the shoulders.
  • swimmers can swim on the spot without any restrictions in terms of time and space and can advantageously train their muscles.
  • This arrangement is also suitable, under the supervision of a physiotherapist, also for the rehabilitation of paraplegic patients whose paralysis lies below the thoracic segments. However, in this case, the buoyant bodies should be placed on the lower leg.
