PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the described figures, and in accordance with the numbering adopted, a non-limiting example of the portable equipment for climbing training of the invention can be seen, which comprises the parts and elements indicated and described in detail. then.

Thus, as observed in said figure 1, the equipment (1) in question is essentially composed of three main elements: the main rope (2), two supports (3) for the feet and several units (4) with grippers (7) for hand grip, preferably five.

The main rope (2) is a special climbing rope in its shirt that is tied, at least, by one of its points to a projection located at some elevated point, such as a tree (not represented in the figures). At its other end one of the supports (3) for the feet is knotted, while the other support (3) is knotted using a stretch of cord (5). Grip units (4) are knotted along the rope (2), preferably also using cord (5), as detailed below, both supports (3) knotted with a section of cord (5) being used.

Optionally, in addition, the lower end of the main rope (2) is also capable of being fixed to a suitable projection and thus varying the inclination of the assembly.

As can be seen in figure 2, the supports (3) for the feet are made up of pieces (31) that have a triangular shape and a central hollow (32) with a lower projection (33) as a stirrup to support the feet and so that the user can “sing” or practice other techniques. These triangular pieces (31) have three holes (6) in the upper part to be able to pass the cord (5) in a concrete way and tie the main rope (2).

In accordance with Figure 3, an example of embodiment of the base plate (41) of the gripping units (4) is observed. This base (41) is constituted by a triangular plate, preferably of wood, which can be of different shapes and sizes, and constitutes the support for a dam (7) in each grip unit (4), consisting of a protruding body to the that the climber grabs with the limbs. As in the case of the pieces (31) of the footrests (3) for the feet, at the upper end or vertex of the triangle that forms said base (41), there are three holes (6) to knot the cord (5) specifically that holds the unit (4) to the main rope (2).

In addition, in the center of the bottom of the base (41) there is a recess (42) so that the main rope (2) is housed and fixed if desired by means of a closure (8) detailed below.

Also in the lower part of the base plate (41) two housings (43) are provided to accommodate the closure elements (8).

Also, approximately in the lower center the base plate (41) includes two holes (43), to accommodate two recessed threads (9) and fasten the dam (7) by means of threading, thereby allowing the exchange thereof easily. Being optional the possibility of leaving some bases (41) without holding the main rope (2) by the rear closure (8) to give greater versatility to the exercise.

Preferably, there are three base sizes (41), proportional to each other, maintaining the size and arrangement of the holes (6), the recess (42) for closing (8) as well as the measures of separation and diameter of the holes and screws (43) for fastening the dams (7).

The dams (7), as mentioned, are the main gripping elements, being fastened to the base (41) by means of two screws (10) and the mentioned recessed threads (9), preferably one of metric 10 and another of metric 4, and can be of varied shapes and dimensions, the only constant being the distance and position of the screws, so that they can be used in any base size (41).

The closure (8) that fixes the base (41) inferiorly to the main rope (2) is preferably composed, as shown in Figure 6, of a belt section (81) with pin (82) which, inserted in the housing ( 42) of the base (41), is mounted on the main rope (2).

Finally, it should be noted that, for the upper fastening of the base (41) with the main rope (2), preferably, a cord (5) is used, approximately one meter in length, knotted with a Prusik (Prussian) knot, self-blocking or Marshall, to said main rope (2) and inserted specifically in the holes (6). With this knot the unit (4) is fixed and fixed to the main rope (2), since the lower fastening of the main rope (2) and the base (41) with the previously described closure (8) serves to prevent the units (4) are rotated, while with this upper knot the height of the unit (4) is adjusted to the main rope (2).

Describing sufficiently the nature of the present invention, as well as the way of putting it into practice, it is not considered necessary to extend its explanation so that any expert in the field understands its scope and the advantages that derive from it, stating that, within its essentiality, it may be carried out in other modes of realization that differ in detail from that indicated by way of example, and to which it will also achieve the protection that is sought as long as it does not alter, change or modify its fundamental principle .
