It is of particular advantage if each group has 2 oppositely arranged rollers and the rollers of the 1st group are arranged offset by 90° relative to the rollers of the 2nd group.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Outdoor-Fitnessgerät, aufweisend einen Träger für ein Gewichtselement, wobei das Gewichtselement an dem Träger befestigt ist, wobei das Gewichtselement an dem Träger verschieblich gelagert ist, wobei der Träger eine Bewegungsbahn für das Gewichtselement ausbildet.The invention relates to an outdoor fitness device having a carrier for a weight element, the weight element being attached to the carrier, the weight element being displaceably mounted on the carrier, the carrier forming a movement path for the weight element.

Ein derartiges Outdoor-Fitnessgerät ist aus der PCT/EP2015/056772 bekannt und als nächstliegender Stand der Technik angesehen. Bei der dort gezeigten Drückerbank ist vorgesehen, ein Drehgelenk als Mittel zur Ausbildung eines apparativen Widerstandes auszubilden. Durch die Wahl der geeigneten Feder wird der apparative Widerstand bestimmt und kann optimal auf den gewünschten Bewegungsablauf und den gewünschten Kraftaufwand abgestimmt werden. Dabei steigt der Kraftaufwand für das Bewegen des Hebels mit der zunehmenden Stauchung der Feder an. Um den erforderlichen Kraftaufwand weiter varieren zu können, wird am Hebel mindestens ein Gewichtselement befestigt, das in Längsrichtung des Hebels verschieblich am Hebel gehalten ist.Such an outdoor fitness device is from the PCT/EP2015/056772 known and regarded as the closest prior art. In the presser bank shown there, a rotary joint is provided as a means of forming an apparatus resistance. The resistance of the apparatus is determined by the selection of the appropriate spring and can be optimally adjusted to the desired movement sequence and the desired effort. The effort required to move the lever increases with the increasing compression of the spring. In order to be able to further vary the effort required, at least one weight element is fastened to the lever and is held on the lever so that it can be displaced in the longitudinal direction of the lever.

Die Position des Gewichtselements am Hebel bestimmt somit dessen Beitrag zu dem Kraftaufwand, der für die Bewegung des Hebels an der Drückerbank erforderlich ist. In einer Position des Gewichtselements nahe am Drehpunkt bzw. der Rotationsachse, ist sein Einfluss auf die für das Bewegung des Hebels aufzubringende Kraft relativ gering. Je weiter ein Gewichtselement vom Drehpunkt entfernt angeordnet wird, desto größer wird sein Einfluss auf die am Fitnessgerät durchgeführte Übung. In der vom Drehpunkt weitest möglich entfernten Position am Hebel kommt die Gewichtskraft des Gewichtselements maximal zum Tragen.The position of the weight member on the lever thus determines its contribution to the effort required to move the lever on the press bank. In a position of the weight element close to the pivot point or the axis of rotation, its influence on the force to be applied for moving the lever is relatively small. The further away a weight element is placed from the pivot point, the greater its influence on the exercise performed on the fitness machine. In the position on the lever that is furthest away from the fulcrum, the weight of the weight element has the maximum effect.

Das Verschieben des Gewichtselements erlaubt es der an der Drückerbank trainierenden Person, die von ihm aufzubringende Kraft bestmöglich an die eigenen Fähigkeiten anzupassen. Ist das Gewichtselement nahe dem Drehpunkt positioniert, wird die zur Bewegung des Hebels aufzubringende Kraft nur wenig durch das Eigengewicht beeinflusst. Die Verlagerung des Gewichtelements findet somit im Vorfeld der Übung statt und hat keinen Einfluss auf die Bewegung der trainierenden Person. Diese wird vom Freiheitsgrad des Hebels vorgegeben.The shifting of the weight element allows the person exercising on the press bench to adapt the force to be exerted by him/her as best as possible to his/her own abilities. If the weight element is positioned close to the fulcrum, the force to be applied to move the lever is only slightly influenced by its own weight. The shifting of the weight element thus takes place in the run-up to the exercise and has no influence on the movement of the person exercising. This is determined by the degree of freedom of the lever.

Das EP 315 085 A1 zeigt ein Fitnessgerät, bei dem ein Gewichtselement an einem Drahtseil geführt wird. Das Drahtseil ist entweder fest oder mittels Federsystem elastisch mit dem Untergrund verbunden.That EP 315 085 A1 shows a piece of fitness equipment in which a weight element is guided on a wire rope. The wire rope is connected to the ground either firmly or elastically by means of a spring system.

Aus dem US 5 244 444 A und dem US 2015/297942 A1 sind Fitnessgeräte bekannt, bei denen der Träger eines Gewichtselements gelenkig mit dem Untergrund verbunden ist.From the U.S. 5,244,444A and the U.S. 2015/297942 A1 Fitness devices are known in which the carrier of a weight element is articulated to the ground.

Die vorliegende Anmeldung stellt sich die Aufgabe, die Bewegung des Gewichtselements nicht zur Variierung des benötigten Kraftaufwandes am Fitnessgerät zu nutzen, sondern mittels der Bewegung des Gewichtelements die Bewegungsrichtung der trainierenden Person vorzugeben.The object of the present application is not to use the movement of the weight element to vary the effort required on the fitness device, but rather to use the movement of the weight element to specify the direction of movement of the person exercising.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch das Outdoor-Fitnessgerät mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Besonders bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung werden in den Unteransprüchen gefasst. Ein wesentlicher Grundgedanke der Erfindung ist, dass der Träger des Gewichtselements starr mit dem Untergrund verbunden ist, auf dem das Outdoor-Fitnessgeräts steht bzw. befestigt ist. Starr im Sinne dieser Erfindung bedeutet, dass die Verbindung keinen Freiheitsgrad aufweist. Hierdurch ist die Bewegungsbahn des Trägers im Raum festgelegt. Da der Verlauf der Bewegungsbahn die Richtung der Bewegung des am Träger befestigten Gewichtselements vorgibt, vollzieht seine Bewegung entlang des Trägers den Richtungsverlauf des Trägers zwangsweise nach.This problem is solved by the outdoor fitness device with the features of claim 1 . Particularly preferred configurations of the invention are set out in the dependent claims. An essential basic idea of the invention is that the carrier of the weight element is rigidly connected to the ground on which the outdoor fitness device stands or is attached. Rigid within the meaning of this invention means that the connection has no degree of freedom. As a result, the trajectory of the carrier is fixed in space. Since the course of the trajectory determines the direction of movement of the weight element attached to the carrier, its movement along the carrier necessarily follows the course of the direction of the carrier.

Auf diese Weise ist die Bewegung des Gewichtselements relativ zum Unterboden vorgegeben. Dabei hat es keine Bedeutung, ob der Träger direkt mit dem Untergrund verbunden ist, auf dem das Outdoor-Fitnessgerät steht, oder mittelbar, beispielsweise über eine Unterkonstruktion, welche das Outdoor-Fitnessgerät mit dem Untergrund verbindet. Die räumlich vorgegebene Bewegungbahn des Gewichtselements im Raum führt dazu, dass die am erfindungsgemäßen Outdoor-Fitnessgerät trainierende Person nur diese eine Bewegung des Gewichtselements durchführen kann. Aufgrund dieses Zusammenhangs kann der Verlauf der Bewegungsbahn auf das Training bestimmter Muskelgruppen optimiert werden. Die Bewegung des Gewichtselements kann hierbei in beide Richtungen erfolgen, einmal schiebend und einmal bremsend, je nachdem ob die Richtung der geführten Bewegung eine Steigung oder ein Gefälle ausbildet.In this way, the movement of the weight element relative to the underbody is predetermined. It is irrelevant whether the carrier is connected directly to the ground on which the outdoor fitness device stands, or indirectly, for example via a substructure that connects the outdoor fitness device to the ground. The spatially predetermined movement path of the weight element in space means that the person exercising on the outdoor fitness device according to the invention can only carry out this one movement of the weight element. Due to this connection, the course of the movement path can be optimized for the training of specific muscle groups. The movement of the weight element can take place in both directions, once pushing and once braking, depending on whether the direction of the guided movement forms an incline or a decline.

Die Festlegung der räumlichen Bewegung des Gewichtelements erlaubt es einer am Outdoor-Fitnessgerät trainierenden Person, die beim Bewegen des Gewichtselements vollzogene Bewegung des eigenen Körpers bei der wiederholten Bewegung des Gewichtselements exakt zu reproduzieren und damit die gewünschte Muskelgruppe gezielt und wiederholt zu trainieren.Determining the spatial movement of the weight element allows a person exercising on the outdoor fitness device to exactly reproduce the movement of their own body that is completed when moving the weight element with the repeated movement of the weight element, and thus to train the desired muscle group in a targeted and repeated manner.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist die Bewegungsbahn eine Richtungsänderung auf. Die Richtungsänderung erlaubt es, die Bewegungsbahn ergonomisch auszubilden. Der Verlauf der Bewegungsbahn kann somit noch besser auf das Training bestimmter Muskelgruppen abgestimmt werden. Zugleich wird es möglich, Fehlbelastungen von Muskeln und Gelenken möglichst zu verhindern. Von besonderem Vorteil ist es hierbei, wenn der Verlauf der Bewegungsbahn durchgehend gekrümmt ist. Dies erlaubt eine noch bessere Anpassung an die gewünschte Bewegung, welche von der am Outdoor-Fitnessgerät trainierenden Person ausgeführt werden soll. Die Bewegungsbahn kann darüber hinaus so ausgelegt werden, dass sich das Krümmungsmaß im Verlauf ändert, insbesondere durchgehend ändert. Hierdurch kann die Anpassung an die gewünschte Bewegung der trainierenden Person weiter optimiert werden.In a preferred embodiment, the movement path has a change in direction. The change in direction allows the trajectory to be designed ergonomically. The course of the trajectory can thus be coordinated even better with the training of specific muscle groups. At the same time, it is possible to prevent improper stress on muscles and joints as much as possible. It is of particular advantage here if the course of the movement path is continuously curved. This allows an even better adjustment to the desired movement, which is to be carried out by the person exercising on the outdoor fitness device. In addition, the movement path can be designed in such a way that the degree of curvature changes over time, in particular changes continuously. In this way, the adjustment to the desired movement of the person exercising can be further optimized.

Die feste Verbindung zwischen Gewichtselement und Träger ist vorzugsweise derart ausgebildet, dass das Gewichtselement den Träger zumindest im Wesentlichen umfängt. Dies ermöglicht es, auf eine separate Führung des Gewichtselement am Träger zu verzichten, da das Gewichtelement selbst die Führung ausbilden kann. Besonders erleichtert wird diese Führung, wenn der Träger rohrförmig ausgebildet ist. Dies ermöglicht es dem Gewichtselement, am Träger zu rotieren und sich somit optimal an eine Krümmung der Bewegungsbahn anzupassen.The fixed connection between the weight element and the carrier is preferably designed in such a way that the weight element at least essentially surrounds the carrier. This makes it possible to dispense with a separate guide for the weight element on the carrier, since the weight element itself can form the guide. This guidance is particularly facilitated if the carrier is of tubular design. This enables the weight element to rotate on the carrier and thus optimally adapt to a curvature of the movement path.

Von besonderem Vorteil ist es dabei, wenn das Gewichtselement eine Buchse, insbesondere eine Kunststoff-Buchse, umfasst, welche den Träger insbesondere vollständig umfängt. Hierdurch werden Führung und Befestigung des Gewichtselements zusammengefasst.It is of particular advantage if the weight element comprises a bushing, in particular a plastic bushing, which in particular completely encloses the carrier. As a result, the guidance and attachment of the weight element are combined.

Vorteilhafterweise sind an der Innenseite der Buchse Laufrollen angeordnet, mit denen die Buchse entlang der Bewegungsbahn auf dem Träger geführt wird. Die Laufrollen beabstanden eine Außenwand des Trägers von der sie umfangenen Innenwand des Gewichtselements bzw. der Buchse des Gewichtselements. Der Abstand verhindert ein Verkanten des Gewichtselements auf dem Träger selbst bei starker Krümmung der Bewegungsbahn. Gleichzeitig wird ein direkter Kontakt und damit die Bewegung erschwerendes Gleiten des Gewichtselements auf dem Träger verhindert. Um den Spalt zwischen Träger und Gewichtselement nicht zu groß werden zu lassen, werden sie vorteihaft teilweise in dafür am Gewichtselement bzw. dessen Buchse vorgesehene Hohlräume integriert.Rollers are advantageously arranged on the inside of the bush, with which the bush is guided along the path of movement on the carrier. The rollers space an outer wall of the carrier from the inner wall of the weight element or the socket of the weight element, which surrounds them. The distance prevents the weight element from tilting on the carrier, even if the path of movement is severely curved. At the same time, there is direct contact and thus the sliding of the weight element on the carrier, which makes the movement more difficult prevented. In order not to let the gap between the carrier and the weight element become too large, they are advantageously partially integrated into cavities provided for this purpose on the weight element or its socket.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind die Laufrollen in zwei Gruppen eingeteilt, welche in Bewegungsrichtung des Gewichtselements hintereinander angeordnet sind, wobei die Laufrollen der ersten Gruppe entlang des Kreisbogenverlaufs der Buchse versetzt zu den Laufrollen der zweiten Gruppe angeordnet sind. Derart angeordnet verhindern die Laufrollen ein Verkanten des Gewichtselements bzw. der Buchse auf dem Träger. Vom besonderen Vorteil ist es wenn jede Gruppe 2 entgegengesetzt angeordnete Laufrollen aufweist und die Laufrollen der 1. Gruppe relativ zu den Laufrollen der 2. Gruppe um 90° versetzt angeordnet sind. Diese Anordnung gewährleistet ein leichtes Verschieben des Gewichtselements selbst bei einem starken und/oder wechselnden Kurvenverlauf entlang der Bewegungsbahn.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the rollers are divided into two groups, which are arranged one behind the other in the direction of movement of the weight element, the rollers of the first group being offset along the arc of the bush to the rollers of the second group. Arranged in this way, the rollers prevent the weight element or the bushing from tilting on the carrier. It is of particular advantage if each group has 2 oppositely arranged rollers and the rollers of the 1st group are arranged offset by 90° relative to the rollers of the 2nd group. This arrangement ensures easy displacement of the weight element even in the case of a strong and/or changing curve along the movement path.

Von Vorteil ist es, wenn das Gewichtselement fest mit einem Griff verbunden ist, wobei der Griff ein das Gewichtselement umlaufender und von ihm beabstandeter Ring ist. Der vom Gewichtselement beabstandete Ring lässt sich leicht greifen, unabhängig davon, in welche Position das Gewichtselement gegebenenfalls rotiert ist. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die feste Verbindung zwischen Gewichtselement und Ring starr ausgebildet. Dies gewährleistet, dass der Griff stets in einer definierten Position zum Gewichtselement ausgerichtet ist.It is advantageous if the weight element is firmly connected to a handle, the handle being a ring that runs around the weight element and is spaced apart from it. The ring spaced from the weight member is easy to grasp regardless of what position the weight member may be rotated to. In a preferred embodiment, the fixed connection between the weight element and the ring is rigid. This ensures that the handle is always in a defined position relative to the weight element.

Von besonderem Vorteil ist eine hierzu alternative Ausführungsform, bei der die feste Verbindung zwischen Gewichtselement und Griff zumindest einen Freiheitsgrad aufweist. Eine solche Anordnung erlaubt es, den Ring so auszurichten, dass ein Zug an ihm nicht mehr senkrecht zum Gewichtselement, sondern in einem Winkel unter 90° erfolgt. Dies trägt dazu bei, ein Verkanten des Gewichtselements am Träger zu verhindern. Als hierfür besonders geeignete Lösung hat sich herausgestellt, wenn der Griff über drei Ketten mit dem Gewichtelement verbunden ist, wobei die Ketten entlang des Rings um mehr als 100 Grad, insbesondere um 120 Grad, voneinander beabstandet sind. Diese Kettenanordnung weist auf Höhe der Kettengelenke Freiheitsgrade auf, welche die Beweglichkeit der Kettengelenke gewährleisten, aber durch das Zusammenwirken der 3 voneinander beabstandete Ketten auch auf auf ein gewünschtes Maß begrenzen. Vorteilhaft ist es dabei, wenn die einzelnen Ketten gleich lang sind, sodass ein für ein gutes Greifen des Ringes erforderlicher Mindestabstand zum Gewichtselement stets gewährleistet ist.Of particular advantage is an alternative embodiment in which the fixed connection between the weight element and the handle has at least one degree of freedom. Such an arrangement allows the ring to be aligned in such a way that it is no longer pulled perpendicularly to the weight element, but at an angle of less than 90°. This helps to prevent the weight element from tilting on the carrier. A particularly suitable solution for this has been found when the handle is connected to the weight element via three chains, the chains being spaced apart from one another by more than 100 degrees, in particular by 120 degrees, along the ring. This chain arrangement has degrees of freedom at the level of the chain links, which ensure the mobility of the chain links, but also limited to a desired level by the interaction of the 3 spaced chains. It is advantageous if the individual chains are of the same length, so that a minimum distance from the weight element, which is necessary for the ring to be gripped properly, is always guaranteed.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist das Outdoor-Fitnessgerät eine Positionierungshilfe auf, welche eine geeignete Position, insbesondere Fußstellung für den am Outdoor-Fitnessgerät trainierenden Nutzer markiert. Nutzt die am Outdoor-Fitnessgerät trainierende Position die Positionierungshilfe, wird ihr Körper optimal für die am Fitnessgeräts durchzuführende Übung positioniert.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the outdoor fitness device has a positioning aid that marks a suitable position, in particular a foot position, for the user exercising on the outdoor fitness device. If the position you train on the outdoor fitness device uses the positioning aid, your body will be optimally positioned for the exercise to be carried out on the fitness device.

Von Vorteil ist es auch, wenn der Träger einen Anschlag für das Gewichtselement aufweist, welcher eine Mindesthöhe des Gewichtselements über dem Untergrund des Outdoor-Fitnessgeräts gewährleistet. Durch diese Mindesthöhe, welche das Gewichtselement aufgrund des Anschlags nicht unterschreiten kann, wird ein übermäßiges belasten von Gelenken und Muskeln durch zu starke Beugung verhindert. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es dabei, wenn der Anschlag ein Federelement aufweist, welches den Zusammenprall von Gewichtselement und Anschlag dämpft. Dies verhindert eine Quetschung von Gliedmaßen oder Teilen davon zwischen Anschlag und Gewichtselement bei unvorsichtiger Bedienung.It is also advantageous if the carrier has a stop for the weight element, which ensures a minimum height of the weight element above the underground of the outdoor fitness device. This minimum height, which the weight element cannot fall below due to the impact, prevents excessive strain on joints and muscles due to excessive bending. It is particularly advantageous if the stop has a spring element which dampens the impact of the weight element and the stop. This prevents limbs or parts of them from being crushed between the stop and the weight element in the event of careless operation.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind an dem Träger eine Mehrzahl von Gewichtelementen befestigt, wobei ein Gewichtselement eine elastische Kontaktfläche zur Anlage des nachfolgenden Gewichtselement aufweist. Die Mehrzahl von Gewichtselementen erlaubt es der am Outdoor-Fitnessgerät trainierenden Person mehrere Gewichtselemente gleichzeitig zu bewegen. Dies ermöglicht es, den für das Training erforderlichen Kraftaufwand auf persönliche Vorlieben einzustellen. Die elastische Kontaktfläche zur Anlage des nachfolgenden Gewichtselements verhindert ebenfalls eine Quetschung von Gliedmaßen oder Teilen davon beim unbeabsichtigten Aneinanderprallen zweier Gewichtselemente. Von Vorteil ist es, wenn die elastische Kontaktfläche als seitlich an den Buchsen des Gewichtselements vorgesehener Gummiüberzug ausgebildet ist.In a particularly preferred embodiment, a plurality of weight elements are fastened to the carrier, one weight element having an elastic contact surface for contact with the following weight element. The plurality of weight elements allows the person exercising on the outdoor fitness device to move several weight elements at the same time. This makes it possible to adjust the effort required for training to personal preferences. The elastic contact surface for contacting the subsequent weight element also prevents limbs or parts thereof from being crushed if two weight elements accidentally collide. It is advantageous if the elastic contact surface is designed as a rubber coating provided laterally on the sockets of the weight element.

Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Outdoor-Fitnessgeräts wird im folgenden anhand zweier Figuren näher beschrieben. Die hierbei beschriebenen Merkmale sind nicht auf diese spezielle Ausführungsform beschränkt, sondern auch mit anderen, hier nicht dargestellten bevorzugten Merkmalen kombinierbar. Es zeigen

Das in den Figuren 1 bis 4 gezeigte Outdoor-Fitnessgerät in Form einer Brust-Schulter-Presse 1 umfasst eine mittels Pfosten 2 an einem hier nicht gezeigten Boden befestigten Träger 3. Die Pfosten 2 sind über eine Unterkonstruktion 4 verbunden, auf der eine Positionierungshilfe 5, respektive Aufnahmefläche, für einen Benutzer fest angeordnet ist. Damit ist die Lage und Ausrichtung des Trägers 3 relativ zur Positionierungshilfe 5 dauerhaft festgelegt. Wie in den Figuren 2 und 3 gezeigt, ist die Unterkonstruktion 4 nach Aufbau des Outdoor-Fitnessgeräts vorzugsweise in den Unterboden eingebaut, so das die Positionierungshilfe 5 ebenerdig mit dem Unterboden 4 abschließt oder nur wenig vorsteht.That in the Figures 1 to 4 The outdoor fitness device shown in the form of a chest-shoulder press 1 includes a support 3 attached to a floor (not shown here) by means of posts 2. The posts 2 are connected via a substructure 4, on which a positioning aid 5, or receiving surface, for a user is fixed. The position and alignment of the carrier 3 relative to the positioning aid 5 is thus permanently fixed. As in the figures 2 and 3 shown, the substructure 4 is preferably built into the subfloor after the outdoor fitness device has been set up, so that the positioning aid 5 is flush with the subfloor 4 or protrudes only slightly.

Der Träger 3 ist rohrförmig ausgebildet und weist zugleich einen Anschlag 6, respektive Sitz, für auf dem Träger 3 eine Mehrzahl in Reihe angeordneter und an ihm verschieblich befestigter Gewichtselemente 7 auf. In dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel sind vier Gewichtselemente 7 hintereinander angeordnet. Am gegenüberliegenden Ende des Trägers 3 kann ein hier nicht gezeigte zweiter Anschlag für die Gewichtselemente 7 angeordnet sein. Dies ist insbesondere dann vorzusehen, wenn der Träger 3 in beiden Endverläufen in Richtung des Unterbodens führt.The carrier 3 is tubular and at the same time has a stop 6 or seat for a plurality of weight elements 7 arranged in a row on the carrier 3 and slidably fastened to it. In the exemplary embodiment shown, four weight elements 7 are arranged one behind the other. A second stop (not shown here) for the weight elements 7 can be arranged at the opposite end of the carrier 3 . This is to be provided in particular when the carrier 3 leads in the direction of the underbody in both end sections.

Die Gewichtselemente 7 weisen eine sie durchlaufende Buchse 8 auf, die den Träger 3 umfängt. Mittels dieser Buchse 8 werden die Gewichtselemente 7 am Träger 3 gehalten und können entlang des Trägers 3 in Längsrichtung verschoben werden.The weight elements 7 have a bushing 8 that runs through them and surrounds the carrier 3 . By means of this socket 8, the weight elements 7 on Carrier 3 held and can be moved along the carrier 3 in the longitudinal direction.

Zwischen dem ersten, dem Anschlag 6 gegenüberliegenden Gewichtselement 7a und dem Anschlag 6 ist ein Federelement 9 angeordnet, welches vorzugsweise als den Träger 3 umlaufende Spiralfeder ausgebildet ist. Das Federelement 9 dämpft den Aufprall des Gewichtselementes 7a auf den Anschlag 6.A spring element 9 is arranged between the first weight element 7a lying opposite the stop 6 and the stop 6 , which spring element is preferably designed as a spiral spring running around the carrier 3 . The spring element 9 dampens the impact of the weight element 7a on the stop 6.

Die Gewichtselemente 7 weisen sie umlaufende und von ihnen beabstandete Ringe 10 auf, über welche die Gewichtselemente 7 von einer am Outdoor-Fitnessgerät 1 trainierenden Person gegriffen werden können. Die Gewichtselemente 7 weisen elastische Kontaktflächen 11 auf, welche ein hartes Aufeinanderschlagen der Gewichtselemente 7 bei einem Kontrollverlust der trainierenden Person verhindern.The weight elements 7 have circumferential rings 10 spaced apart from them, via which the weight elements 7 can be gripped by a person exercising on the outdoor fitness device 1 . The weight elements 7 have elastic contact surfaces 11, which prevent the weight elements 7 from hitting each other hard if the exercising person loses control.

Um mit beiden Armen gleichzeitig trainieren zu können, ist die Brust-Schulter-Presse 1, wie in den Figuren 2-4 gezeigt, spiegelsymmetrisch zu einer senkrecht auf der Positionierungshilfe 5 stehenden und hier nicht gezeigten Symmetrieebene aufgebaut.In order to be able to train with both arms at the same time, the chest-shoulder press 1, as in the Figures 2-4 shown, constructed mirror-symmetrically to a plane of symmetry that is perpendicular to the positioning aid 5 and is not shown here.

Für die optimale Bewegung der Arme einer auf der Positionierungshilfe 5 stehenden Person verläuft die Bewegungsbahn der beiden Träger 3a, 3b durchgehend gekrümmt. Die Träger 3a, 3b sind derart ausgebildet, dass sie in einem Teilbereich der Bewegungsbahn auf einander zu laufen. Greift eine trainierende Person mit einer Hand ein Gewichtselement 7 am Träger 3a und mit der anderen Hand ein Gewichtselement am Träger 3b wird beim Schieben der Gewichtselemente 7 entlang der Bewegungsbahn ein Zusammenführen der Arme bei zunehmender Streckung bewirkt.For the optimal movement of the arms of a person standing on the positioning aid 5, the path of movement of the two carriers 3a, 3b is continuously curved. The carriers 3a, 3b are designed in such a way that they converge on one another in a partial area of the movement path. If an exercising person grips a weight element 7 on support 3a with one hand and a weight element on support 3b with the other hand, the arms are brought together as the weight elements 7 are pushed along the path of movement as the stretching increases.

Eine zusätzliche Stabilität des Outdoor-Fitnessgeräts 1 wird erreicht, indem eines der Pfostenpaare 2a, 2b an einem der Unterkonstruktion entgegengesetzten Ende mittels eines Querträgers 12 verbunden sind.Additional stability of the outdoor fitness device 1 is achieved in that one of the pairs of posts 2a, 2b is connected by means of a cross member 12 at an end opposite the substructure.

Vorteilhafterweise ist das Outdoor-Fitnessgerät 1 aus umweltbeständigen Materialien hergestellt. Für die Pfosten 2, den Unterboden 4, die Positionierungshilfe 5 und den Träger 3 eignet sich insbesondere Edelstahl. Die Buchsen 8 werden vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff gefertigt.The outdoor fitness device 1 is advantageously made from environmentally resistant materials. For the post 2, the bottom 4, the positioning aid 5 and the Carrier 3 is particularly suitable for stainless steel. The sockets 8 are preferably made of plastic.
