Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a health device that performs exercises such as bending and stretching of an elbow in a standing posture.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In the inverted posture, the back and waist are stretched, and the direction of gravity applied to the human body is reversed, so that blood circulation is promoted, which is effective for promoting health. However, handstand is not always an easy posture. Therefore, conventionally, an upside-down hanging health appliance for easily leading to an upright posture has been proposed (Patent Document 1).
[0003]
On the other hand, if an exercise such as bending and stretching of the elbow can be easily performed in the upright posture, it is more effective for enhancing the muscle strength and promoting health of the user. However, the conventional health appliance is not designed to exercise by actively using the upright posture, and the user simply hangs on the health appliance in the upright posture.

[0011]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
(First embodiment)
FIGS. 1A and 1B are diagrams showing a configuration of a handstand health device according to the present embodiment. FIG. 1A is a side view of the handstand health device, and FIG. 1B is a front view. 1 is fixed to the floor surface by a pedestal 113 provided at a lower end of a pillar 111 serving as a skeleton. The pulley 107 is fixed to the pulley mounting portion 129 fixed to the column 111, and the rope 105 moves on the pulley 107. Further, the rope 105 is provided with a spring 109 at a part thereof. The motor 117 includes a driving unit (not shown) and a winder (not shown) that winds one end of the rope 105. The other end of the rope 105 is fixed to a support rod 131. The support rod 131 is connected to the support plate 123 by a connection member 133. The support plate 123 is provided with a torso fixing belt 102 and an ankle fixing portion 103 for fixing the user 101 to the upright health device. Further, since the support plate 123 is provided with the wheels 127, the floor surface can be moved smoothly. Further, the user 101 drives the motor 117 using the remote controller 125 fitted on the wrist to wind up or down the rope 105, thereby adjusting the height of the support bar 131.
[0012]
In the inverted health device of FIG. 1, there is no particular limitation on the material of the pillar 111 and the pedestal 113, but for example, the pillar 111 is made of metal or plastic. The pedestal 113 is made of rubber, plastic, metal or the like.
[0013]
In addition, it is preferable that the support rod 131 and the support plate 123 are made of materials as light as possible so that the user 101 can easily perform the bending and stretching movement of the elbow in the inverted posture. These are made of, for example, wooden or plastic. There is no particular limitation on the shape of the pulley mounting portion 129. For example, the pulley mounting portion 129 may be a bracket or the like, which is fixed to the support 111.
[0014]
Next, a method of using the handstand health device of FIG. 1 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 is a side view showing the configuration of the handstand health device according to the present embodiment. First, the user 101 lays down on the support plate 123 with the rope 105 pulled out sufficiently and the support plate 123 grounded to the floor surface 115 as shown in FIG. Pass your feet. Then, the trunk is fixed to the support plate 123 by the trunk fixing belt 102.
[0015]
Next, the user 101 operates the remote controller 125 put on the wrist to drive the motor 117 and wind up the rope 105. Then, the support rod 131 connected to the rope 105 rises (FIG. 2B). At this time, the support bar 131 moves so as to slide between the four columns 111. Since the support plate 123 is fixed to the support bar 131 by the connection member 133 as described above, the support plate 123 moves up as the support bar 131 rises. At this time, the user 101 may adopt a posture in which both sides are closed for safety. In addition, it is preferable that the user 101 slightly warps the upper body so that the face does not contact the floor surface 115.
[0016]
Then, after raising the support bar 131 to a height corresponding to the exercise ability of the user 101, the motor 117 is stopped by the remote controller 125 (FIG. 2C). In FIG. 2C, the user 101 adjusts the height of the support rod 131 so that the user 101 can reach the floor surface 115 with the elbow bent. At this time, the spring 109 provided on a part of the rope 105 is extended by the mass of the user 101, the support plate 123, the support rod 131, the connecting member 133, and the like. Hereinafter, the bending and extension of the elbow of the user 101 and the movement of the spring 109 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram for explaining the movement of the spring of the handstand health device in FIG. 1.
[0017]
FIG. 3A is a schematic diagram showing the state of the spring 109 in FIG. 2C in an enlarged manner. In FIG. 3A, as described with reference to FIG. 2C, the user 101 is bending the elbow and the spring 109 is in an extended state. Next, FIG. 3B shows a state in which the user 101 has extended his elbow. In FIG. 3B, since the user 101 extends his elbow against gravity, the spring 109 contracts. As described above, when the user 101 performs the bending and extending movement of the elbow, the spring 109 expands and contracts as shown in FIGS. 3 (a) and 3 (b).
[0018]
When the exercise finishes, the user 101 operates the remote controller 125 again to drive the motor 117 and unwind the rope 105. Then, the support bar 131 descends. At this time, since the wheels 127 provided on the support plate 123 rotate on the floor surface 115, the impact at the time of landing can be suppressed. Then, after landing, the motor 117 is stopped, the trunk fixing belt 102 is removed, and the foot is pulled out from the ankle fixing part 103.
[0019]
As described above, in the handstand health device of FIG. 1, the user 101 can perform the bending and stretching exercise of the arm in the inverted posture. At this time, since the support rod 131 is provided between the four columns 111 and the torso and the ankle are fixed to the support plate 123, it is possible to exercise in a stable posture. Further, the user 101 can arbitrarily adjust the angle between the support plate 123 and the floor surface 115 by adjusting the height of the support bar 131. Therefore, the arm can bend and stretch at an appropriate angle according to the physical strength.
[0020]
In the handstand health device of FIG. 1, the spring 109 may be made of another elastic body, for example, rubber. In addition, the body fixing belt 102 and the ankle fixing part 103 may be in modes other than the belt as long as the user 101 can be safely fixed on the support plate 123. For example, the ankle fixing part 103 may be configured such that shoes or boots are fixed to the support plate 123. The rope 105 may be made of another material as long as it can withstand the mass of the support rod 131, the support plate 123, the user 101, and the like, and may be, for example, a metal chain.
[0021]
Further, the remote controller 125 may be provided at a position other than the wrist of the user 101 as long as the user 101 can use the body 101 with the body fixed to the support plate 123. May be installed. If the remote controller 125 is installed on the floor surface 115, the user 101 can operate the remote controller 125 with one hand on the floor surface 115, which is more secure.
[0022]
(Second embodiment)
FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating the handstand health device according to the present embodiment. FIG. 4A is a side view, and FIG. 4B is a front view.
