  JP-A-10-165538

  In the training apparatus that can stretch and train the muscles of the waist according to the above-described conventional technical examples, the following first to fifth techniques are provided in order to provide a technique that the user can use more satisfactorily. It is desirable to satisfy all conditions.

  The first condition described above is that training to stretch the waist muscles to the maximum is possible. In order to obtain the best supine posture for satisfying the first condition, first, as requirement 1, it is necessary that the back portion does not widely contact the floor surface or the frame surface of the training equipment. The reason is that when the back part is in wide contact with the floor surface or the frame surface of the training equipment, the body cannot be fully stretched due to the resistance or friction of the contact surface, or the posture of the state described above. Inevitably, the muscles cannot stretch as much as possible. And as the requirement 2, it is possible to support the waist with the best and appropriate small-sized support surface, and it is necessary to position the support surface as high as possible. The reason for this is that a large area is supported and the support surface at a low position is the same as the reason for requirement 1. The first condition can be satisfied by satisfying both the requirement 1 and the requirement 2 in agreement. In Patent Document 1, FIG. 13, Arch type, FIG. 14 L-shaped type, FIG. 15 V-shaped type, and FIG. There is nothing that satisfies. Therefore, all examples described in the background art do not satisfy the first condition.

  Next, the second condition is that the waist muscles can be stretched to the maximum, and further, rocking and twisting can be applied in parallel. In all the examples described in the background art, as shown in FIGS. 13 to 16, the waist muscles can be stretched temporarily in a certain direction in which the whole body is warped (the same applies to Patent Document 1). However, none has means for applying swinging rotation torsion in parallel with the posture in which the whole body is bowed. Therefore, all examples described in the background art do not satisfy the second condition.

  Next, the third condition is that a burdening operation with physical effort is unnecessary and an effect can be expected in as short a time as possible. Since all the examples described in the background art do not satisfy the first condition, in order to expect a certain degree of effect in one training, it is necessary to train for a certain amount of time. . Therefore, the effect cannot be expected in as short a time as possible. Further, the L-shaped type in FIG. 14 requires a burdening operation with physical effort to repeatedly pull the L-shaped handle 20 with a corresponding arm force, and the V-shaped type in FIG. Because it is necessary to make it, it is necessary to repeatedly apply force to the whole body and warp the body in a bow shape. In addition, in the roll type type, it is unstable to place the back on the big roll back support 25. Therefore, it is necessary to perform the burdening operation to maintain balance by putting power on the whole body. Therefore, all examples described in the background art do not satisfy the third condition.

  Next, the fourth condition is that an effective state in which the waist muscles are stretched and trained to the maximum extent can be sustained with full body power removed. All examples described in the background art do not basically satisfy the fourth condition because the first condition is not satisfied, but it is assumed that the first condition is satisfied for reference. An example will be described below. The L-shaped type can maintain the posture while pulling the L-shaped handle 20 with both hands, but the posture cannot be maintained when the power of both hands is removed. Further, the posture of the V-shaped type (b) in FIG. 15 can be maintained while the user puts power into the whole body, but when the power is removed, the posture returns to (a). And in the roll type type of FIG. 16, the force which maintains the posture which puts a back on a roll is needed, and if it removes that force, a posture cannot be maintained. Therefore, in any case, this fourth condition is not satisfied.

  Next, the 5th condition is that it is the size which can be permanently installed in the limited living space, and has diversity. All examples described in the background art are, for example, sizes that can be permanently installed in a room such as a studio apartment, and do not have diversity corresponding to uses other than training purposes. Therefore, all examples described in the background art do not satisfy the fifth condition.

  The present invention is intended to solve the problems of such a conventional configuration, and firstly, training to stretch the waist muscles to the maximum is possible. Secondly, the waist muscles can be stretched to the maximum, and in addition, rocking and twisting can be applied in parallel. Thirdly, it eliminates the burden of physical effort and can be expected to be effective in as short a time as possible. Fourth, it is possible to maintain the effective state of stretching and stretching the muscles of the waist as much as possible, with full body power. Fifth, it must be of a size that can be permanently installed in a limited living space and has diversity. The object is to realize a waist shape-up frame that comprehensively satisfies all the above five conditions.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a main support portion having a height not less than a predetermined height at which the upper back portion does not contact the floor surface and the frame surface when the main support portion (1) supports the human waist as a fulcrum. A groove having a longitudinal cross-sectional shape including the side surface or the top surface of the main support portion, a curved portion on the surface of the main support portion, and a width greater than the width of the spinal column parallel to the spinal column in the center of the left and right main support portions In the frame where the frame has sufficient rigidity to support the weight of the human body and the inclined surface formed by the frame also serves as the base as a backrest, the safety of the back of the head can be sufficiently secured by installing a cushion mat It is a configuration.

  Further, the second solution means is configured such that in the frame described above, means for applying rocking rotation to the waist muscle and handrails are provided on both the left and right side surfaces of the frame.

  Further, the third solving means is configured such that in the cushion mat described above, the shape can be changed by connecting the cushion mat, and means for finely adjusting the mounting position of the cushion mat is provided. .

  The operation of the first problem solving means will be described with reference to FIG. That is, when the user slides his back backward in the posture of FIG. 7A, the user can reach FIG. 7B in an effective state in which the waist muscles are stretched and trained to the maximum. In this way, it is possible to reach an effective state without requiring a burdening action involving physical effort, and to continue this state until the whole body is relaxed and relaxed. At this stage, the upper back portion does not come into contact with the floor surface or the frame surface, and the lumbar portion can be gently supported by the synergistic effect of the curved shape of the main support portion and the spine protection groove portion. Moreover, since the inclined surface of the frame also serves as a base that can be used as a backrest, diversity can be ensured. And, since the safety of the back of the head can be sufficiently secured by installing the cushion mat, it is possible to take a posture on the back with a sense of security.

  Further, the action of the second problem solving means is that, following the effective state of FIG. 7 (b), when the swinging rotation handle 11c is gripped with both hands and swung, the swinging rotation twist is applied to the muscles of the waist. The most effective state shown in FIG. Since the structure has no rotational friction and resistance when the handle is rotated, it can be easily swung and rotated. The handrail will be described with reference to FIGS. According to the present invention, when the lower back is slightly lowered after the start (a), the effective state (b), and the most effective state (c) without a handrail, the front frame becomes a slide and returns to the original posture. Can do. A user who wants to return to the original posture while holding something after the most effective state (c) can use the handrail provided on the side surface of the frame. In this case, it is possible to return to the original posture in the order of (a), (b), (c), and (d). Thus, even when returning to the original posture, it is possible to use physical effort as unnecessary regardless of whether or not the handrail is used.

  The action of the third problem solving means is that the shape of the cushion mat connected in a bowl shape can be changed from time to time to a shape that is greatly expanded and a shape that is bent slightly. For example, as shown in FIGS. The shape can be changed according to the user's purpose. Furthermore, the attachment position of the cushion mat can be finely adjusted according to the height or body shape of the user (see FIG. 11).

  As described above, the waist shape-up frame of the present invention can be trained to stretch the waist muscles to the maximum extent. Secondly, the waist muscles can be stretched to the maximum, and in addition, rocking and twisting can be applied in parallel. Thirdly, it eliminates the burden of physical effort and can be expected to be effective in as short a time as possible. Fourth, it is possible to maintain the effective state of stretching and stretching the muscles of the waist as much as possible, with full body power. Fifth, it must be of a size that can be permanently installed in a limited living space and has diversity. A waist shape-up frame that comprehensively satisfies all of the above five conditions can be provided.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

  The material constituting the present invention is mainly shown in FIG. 2, wherein 1 is a main support portion, which is a front frame 2a, a rear frame 2b, a groove portion 3 (see FIG. 4a), a handrail mounting spiral hole 4, a connecting tube hole 4a, and a connecting tube. 5. Connection tube / base shaft tube 5a, anti-slip member 6, handrail 7, handrail spiral 8, connection tube spiral 8a, small diameter curved surface 9, A type mat 10a, B type mat 10b, rubber band 10c with magic tape, magic Tape 10d, oscillating rotating ring casing 11a, oscillating rotating ring 11b, oscillating rotating handle 11c, oscillating rotating ring casing storage shaft 11d, oscillating rotating small diameter roller 11e (see FIG. 6b), mounting hook 12 (see FIG. 3) ) Or more.

  For details of the embodiment, the mounting hook 12 shown in FIG. 3 is aligned on the same line of the connecting tube hole 4a, and the connecting tube 5 is passed through and fixed by the connecting tube spiral 8a, and the apex of the front frame 2a and the rear frame 2b on one side. The parts are connected. Next, the connecting tube / bottom shaft tube 5a is passed through the two connecting tube holes 4a on the lower side shown in FIG. 2 and fixed by the connecting tube spiral 8a. Then, when the connecting tube 5 and the connecting tube / bottom shaft tube 5a are passed through the connecting tube hole 4a of the other front frame 2a and the rear frame 2b and fixed by the connecting tube spiral 8a, the spinal column is formed at the center of the left and right main support portions 1. And the main support portion 1 having a height not less than a predetermined height at which the upper back portion does not contact the floor surface 26 and the frame surface when the main support portion 1 supports the waist portion as a fulcrum. It is formed so as to be provided with a vertex surface. A handrail 7 is fixed to the handrail mounting spiral holes 4 of the left and right frames 2 having a substantially triangular shape by a handrail spiral 8, and one side of the magic tape 10d is fixed to the surfaces of the left and right rear frames 2b ( See FIG. 4c).

  The oscillating rotation ring 11b and the oscillating rotation handle 11c are fixedly attached, and the outer periphery thereof is covered with the oscillating rotation ring casing 11a. And since the rocking rotation small diameter roller 11e (refer to FIG. 6b) is provided at the four positions of the rocking rotation ring casing 11a and the rocking rotation ring 11b at the top, bottom, left and right, when rotating the rocking rotation handle 11c, It can oscillate and rotate without friction and resistance. As described above, since no load is applied to the oscillating rotation, it does not correspond to a burden operation involving physical effort. Then, the entire swing rotating ring 11 is formed by helically fixing the swing rotating ring casing 11a and the swing rotating ring casing housing shaft 11d (not shown). Then, one end of the swinging and rotating ring casing housing shaft 11d is inserted into the connecting tube / bottom shaft tube 5a so as to be integrated with the frame 2 so as to be freely inserted and removed.

  The cushion mat 10 is formed by connecting two mats, an A type mat 10a and a bowl-shaped B type mat 10b. Two sets of rubber bands 10c with magic tape are attached to the tip of both of the A type mat 10a and the B type mat 10b that are connected. The shape can be changed by attaching the two rubber bands 10c with magic tapes according to the use form (see FIG. 12). A magic tape 10d (see FIG. 4c) attached to the rear frame 2b and a set of magic tape 10d are attached to the bottom surface of the A type mat 10a. By attaching both the magic tapes 10d, the cushion mat 10 can be finely adjusted and installed on the rear frame 2b according to the height or body shape of the user (see FIG. 11). The material of the cushion mat 10 is not particularly specified as long as the safety of the back of the head can be ensured.

  Next, the material of the frame 2 is not particularly specified as long as it has sufficient rigidity to support the weight of the human body. However, in the main support portion 1 and the surface portion of the frame 2, the back portion and the waist portion are not specified. A material with little friction is preferable for sliding the slide. In addition, in the raw material of the surface layer part of the main support part 1, since it can utilize comfortably in any case of a soft material or a hard material, it is not limited to either one. In addition, since the front frame 2a and the rear frame 2b constituting the frame 2 are used as a backrest, an appropriate inclination is set.

  Further, since the anti-slip 6 is made of a material such as rubber, the flooring or the like is not wrinkled. In addition, the main support portion 1 and the frame 2 support the human lumbar portion and the back portion, and therefore, the main support portion 1 and the frame 2 have a shape with a right-angled surface as a whole by the small-diameter curved surface 9 in order to ensure safety.

  The operation of the above configuration will be described below. The user 13 left the pelvis part naturally on the front frame side when the user 13 slid back in the posture of putting the back on the front frame 2a and raising both arms above the head (see FIG. 7a). The main support 1 supports the best position of the waist where the muscles of the waist are stretched as much as possible as a fulcrum (see FIG. 7b). In this posture, the upper back portion of the user 13 is not in contact with the floor surface 26 and the surface of the rear frame 2b. As described above, it eliminates the burden of physical effort, reaches the effective state of stretching and training the abdominal, flank and back muscles to the maximum, and this effect in a relaxed state with all the body power removed. Can be sustained until the desired state is satisfied. Further, the waist portion is gently supported by the synergistic effect of the curved portion of the longitudinal section of the main support portion 1 and the groove portion 3 that avoids the weight perpendicular to the spine and protects the spine.

  Following the effective state shown in FIG. 7 (b), when the swing rotation handle 11c is gripped and rotated with both hands, the swing muscles can be added to the waist muscles as shown in FIG. 7 (c). Become effective. When making this rotation, it has a structure without rotational friction and resistance, so it is possible to apply rocking rotation torsion to the allowable angle of the user's body, and when it reaches this allowable angle, it reversely rotates by its reaction, An equivalent twist can be applied in the opposite direction. Further, since there is a gap space between the back portion and the rear frame 2b in the swing rotation, the left and right shoulders are less likely to come into contact with the rear frame 2b during the swing rotation.

  Further, a supplementary explanation will be given as to which part of the muscle is specifically stretched and trained at the time of FIGS. 7B and 7C. Particularly, the muscles to be trained are the muscles of the abdominal part 15 formed of a three-layer structure with the rectus abdominis muscle 14 in FIG. 8A (the outer abdominal oblique muscle 15a, the inner abdominal oblique muscle 15b, the deepest part). The lateral abdominal muscle 15c), the front sawtooth 16 and the latissimus dorsi muscle 17 of FIG. 8B. FIG. 9 shows in which direction and angle the muscles are stretched. In FIG. 9, the three types of muscles of the rectus abdominis muscle 14 and the side abdomen 15 formed by a three-layer structure, the front saw muscle 16 and the latissimus dorsi muscle 17 are extended to the maximum with the waist as a fulcrum. As a result, a swinging rotation twist is applied. In this most effective state, all the muscles described above are stretched to the maximum in a curved shape that has not been stretched in daily life and conventional training equipment, and in addition, rocking, rotating, and twisting can be applied in parallel. Give a very effective stimulus.

  Furthermore, in FIG. 10, (a) shows the muscle state where the lower abdomen has come out, (b) shows the balanced muscle state, and the person who comes out of the lower abdomen is formed with the rectus abdominis muscle 14 and a three-layer structure. The muscles of the flank 15 are relaxed and the subcutaneous fat 18 tends to be thick. On the other hand, in a well-balanced muscle state, the muscle is tightened and the subcutaneous fat 18 is thin. As a means to remove the slackness of the waist muscles, the training that stretches the muscles to the maximum, and in addition applies rocking rotation torsion to give effective stimulation tightens the waist muscles and finally reduces the subcutaneous fat 18 Will be reduced.

  In order to return to the original posture from the posture of FIG. 7 (c), when the waist is lowered a little, the front frame 2a serves as a slide and can naturally return to the original posture. Hereinafter, (a) to (d) are all described as FIG. After the most effective state (c), a user who wants to return to the original posture while holding something can use the handrail 7. In this case, it is possible to return to the original posture in the order of start time (a), effective state (b), most effective state (c), and end time (d). Conversely, a user who wants to be in an effective state (b) while holding something at the start can also use this handrail 7.

  The shape of the cushion mat 10 is changed to the shape shown in FIGS. 7 and 12, for example, by attaching or removing the rubber bands 10c with magic tape of both the A type mat 10a and the bowl-shaped B type mat 10b. it can. Furthermore, since the magic tape 10d attached to the rear frame 2b and the magic tape 10d on the bottom surface of the set A type mat 10a can be put together at an arbitrary position, the position of the installation height of the cushion mat 10 can be determined by the user. Fine adjustment can be made according to height or body shape (see FIG. 11).

  In addition, when it is not for training purposes, the waist swinging and rotating ring 11 is accommodated so that it can be permanently installed in a limited living space, thereby reducing the overall size and ensuring the versatility that can be used as a backrest. As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to perform training in which the waist muscles are stretched to the maximum while the swinging and twisting is applied in parallel while eliminating the burdening action accompanied by physical effort. As well as diversity as a backrest.
