[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a device for effectively and continuously performing abdominal muscle exercise of a human body for a long period of time. Furthermore, it relates to a device that is also effective for treating back pain, knee pain, tight back, etc., which are not related to internal diseases.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Traditionally, abdominal exercises have been considered effective for dieting, that is, for weight loss purposes, and various proposals have been made. For example, JP-A-56-56358, JP-A-58-115253, JP-A-59-44460, JP-A-61-14060, JP-A-63-34455 and JP-K-58. No. 4517, Jpn. Pat. Appln. KOKAI No. 61-13012, Jpn. Pat. Appln. KOKAI No. 1-31242, and many other publications disclose instruments for exercising abdominal muscles.

These conventional techniques are trained only by the self-power of an exercising person, and most of them are trainings such as “hanging”, “boat rowing”, “biking rowing”, “bending and stretching” alone or in combination. ing.

However, although the exercise equipment that is trained only by one's own power as described above has a great effect if it is continuously exercised every day, there is a problem in this continuity. For example, in a tilted abdominal muscle table, about one day is required. 50 to 60 flexion exercises are the best, and a person with normal physical strength is often too strict to train daily for a long period of time, and it is difficult to continue for a long time unless the person has a strong will. There are many abdominal exercise equipments. Therefore, the conventional abdominal exercise equipment often causes back pain, and the therapeutic effect on so-called back pain and tight back can not be expected at all.

The inventor of the present invention applied for a utility model registration of “abdominal exercise device” in November 1991 for the purpose of improving the conventional abdominal exercise device as described above (Japanese Patent Application No. 3-9852). No. 3).

The invention of this prior application is provided with a moving member (for example, an arm, a wire, a rope, etc.) which can be grasped and held by both hands when performing flexion and extension exercises on the abdominal muscle table, and the moving member is reciprocated by a drive device by a motor. If you move it, you can perform flexion and abdominal muscles exercises while adjusting and using your own power appropriately on the way back and forth, so you can adjust the severity of training depending on how you exert your own power and continue daily without much rigor. It became a device for exercising abdominal muscles that can be exercised with great effort.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present invention is intended to further improve the invention of the above-mentioned previous application, and the continuity described above is of course excellent, and shocks can be mitigated by making the movement of the instrument extremely flexible. In addition to being a simple dieting effect due to abdominal exercise, it is also a very healthy abdominal exercise equipment that exerts a short-term treatment effect on low back pain, knee pain, tight back, etc. caused by other than internal diseases. Is intended to be provided.

[0008]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 As a result of various studies to achieve the above-mentioned object, in a moving member that reciprocates for drawing and retracting by a driving force of a motor, for example, above the human body sitting on the back on the inclined plate base, a grip is applied to this moving member. It has been found that very favorable results can be obtained by mounting not by directly, but by mounting an elastic elastic member such as a spring or rubber between the moving member and the grip.

That is, the present invention provides an inclined plate base for a human body to ride on its back with its head down, and a projecting body for supporting the upper end of the inclined plate base and hanging the ankle of the human body. Main pillar and a moving member to which a grip that is grasped by the human body is attached and which is extended and retracted through the upper end of the main pillar by an operating device, and the grip is connected via a stretchable elastic member. The gist of the invention is an abdominal exercise device characterized by being attached to a moving member.

The present invention will be described with reference to the drawings by way of one embodiment. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the device of the present invention. As shown in this figure, the present invention has an inclined plate base (1), and the receiving member (2) at the lower end of the inclined plate base (1) contacts the floor surface, while the upper end of the inclined plate base (1) is The part is supported in the middle position of the main pillar (3). In the embodiment shown in the drawings, there is shown a case where a support base (4) is attached to the main pillar (3) so that the height can be adjusted, and the upper end of the inclined plate base (1) is supported by the support base (4). Has been done. The inclination angle of the inclined plate base (1) can be adjusted by the height of the support base (4), preferably 10 to 15 degrees, and particularly preferably 12 to 13 degrees.

The main pillar (3) is erected on the base (5), and the upper and lower projections (6) (7) are provided above the support base (4) of the main pillar (3). ) Are attached to the left and right respectively. The heel of the foot is placed on the lower protrusion (7), and the fat portion of the foot is hung on the back surface of the upper protrusion (6) to fix the ankle. In other words, the human body rides on the tilted plate base (1) with its head facing down and the ankle is hung on the protrusions (6) and (7) to prevent slipping. It should be noted that it is desirable to use a material having cushioning properties for the protrusions (6) and (7). Further, the mounting positions of these protrusions (6) and (7) can be adjusted by selecting the mounting holes (20) of the pin screws (19).

A moving member, that is, a wire (8) in the figure, is provided so as to repeat the reciprocating movement of feeding / retracting through (passing through) the upper end of the main pillar (3). In the present invention, a spring (10) as an elastic elastic member is interposed between the wire (8) as the moving member and the grip (9) for the human body to hold it with the hand. .

The moving member may be a belt, a rope, a chain, or any other strong and bendable long member other than the wire (8), and the elastic member may be arranged outside the spring (10). It may be rubber, and the point is that any member having appropriate elasticity and elasticity can be used. If the spring (10) is detachably replaceable, the spring (10) can be selected according to the weight of the trainee.

As an actuating device for feeding and retracting the wire (8) as a moving member, for example, rotation of the rotating arm (11) shown in the drawings can be used. That is, the pedestal (12) is installed at the rear part of the base (5), the motor (13) is attached on the pedestal (12), and the rotating arm (11) is rotated by the motor (13) as shown by the arrow (a). If a continuously variable transmission is added to this motor (13), the rotation speed can be adjusted arbitrarily.

Near the end of the rotating arm (11), the end of the wire (8) is mounted in a sliding state, and the wire (8) is passed through pulleys (14) (15) (16) (17). Then, the grip (9) is attached to the upper end of the main pillar (3) with the spring (10) interposed. By doing so, when the rotating arm (11) starts to rotate as shown by the arrow (a), the wire (8) is fed out as shown by the arrow (b), and when the rotating arm (11) faces downward, (8) is fed out for the longest time, and when the rotating arm (11) is further rotated, the wire (8) is changed to retracting operation, and when the rotating arm (11) is directed straight upward, it is returned to the original state. .

In this way, the reciprocating operation of paying out and drawing in the wire (8) can be obtained every time the rotary arm (11) makes one revolution. The wire tip mounting position on the rotating arm (11) can be changed by selecting the mounting hole (18), and the substantial radius of rotation can be adjusted. Therefore, the reciprocating working distance of the wire (8) is It is adjustable and adapted to the height of the trainee. Usually, this reciprocating distance is preferably in the range of 50 to 90 cm.

Further, it is appropriate that the rotation speed of the rotating arm (11) is about 8 to 20 seconds per one rotation, and if this rotation speed is too fast, bending and stretching should be repeated only by the operating force of the motor (13). Therefore, the abdominal muscles will not be exercised, and if the rotation is too slow, the training will be too strict. In the experiment by the present inventor, one rotation of about 10 seconds was the most suitable.

As the actuating device in the present invention, in addition to the device using the rotation of the motor, for example, a power spring (power storage) device by power or human power, and water pressure, air pressure, hydraulic pressure, etc. by power or human power are used. It may be a device that has been used.

[0019]

[Action]

 The present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, and a trainee rides on the inclined board base (1) and lays his back on his back with his head down, and his legs are fixed by the protrusions (6) and (7). Hold the grip (9) with.

Then, when the switch of the motor (13) is applied, the rotary arm (11) starts to rotate and the wire (8) is fed out. When the wire (8) starts to be fed out, the human body is made to lie down following it, but instead of just sleeping by itself, the wire (8) is moderately stretched while adjusting itself. Use it to sleep.

Further, when the wire (8) starts to be retracted, the upper body is raised in accordance with this, and at this time, the upper body is also raised while using the abdominal muscles of oneself. In other words, since the abdominal muscles are used consciously and appropriately in both the forward and backward movements, the effect is likely to be increased, and since it is assisted by the operating force of the motor (13), it is less rigorous and frequent bending and stretching exercises (in the case of self-help only) 2 to 3 times).

In this bending and stretching exercise, both knees are in a raised state, and the trainee's leg has a triangular chevron shape. As a way of using one's own power, it is desirable to apply three equal forces to the arm, waist, and toes when a traction force is applied to the grip.

A person with normal physical strength can perform flexion and extension exercises a large number of times since his or her strength is small, and at least 30 minutes (about 180 times) can be sustained. Therefore, abdominal flexion and extension exercises for 30 minutes a day required for weight reduction purposes. Can be easily achieved. It is needless to say that it is desirable that the number of times can be set in advance by the number of times setter suitable for oneself. Also, the operating time may be determined by a timer.

In the present invention, since the spring (10) which is a stretchable elastic member is interposed between the grip (9) and the wire (8) which is a moving member, the wire (8) can be pulled out or pulled in. The shocks that tend to occur at the time of replacement are effectively relieved, and the movements become extremely flexible, making it easy to train and not overlying the body.

Therefore, it is also effective in treating back pain, knee pain, tight back, and the like. Needless to say, it is not effective for back pain caused by internal diseases.

[0026]

[Effect of device]

 The present invention is as described above, and the effects thereof are as follows. (A) Since the abdominal muscles can be exercised while being assisted by the actuator, the body can be trained relatively easily. (B) Therefore, it is easy to continue training every day, and the weight loss effect is improved. (C) The ankles, feet, thighs, and abdomen are thin, which is very suitable for beauty and health.

(D) Weight can be reduced while eating normally, and the body becomes firm and stress is eliminated. (E) Unlike the extreme diet method or the strict training method that accumulates fatigue, since you can perform a moderate abdominal muscle exercise for at least 30 minutes every day, the body fat is consumed and the flesh is removed. Can be demonstrated.

(F) Moreover, since the extremely flexible shock-free operation is repeated, it is easy to train and the body is not overpowered, and the effect of early treatment is exerted on low back pain, knee pain, tight back and the like. As described above, the present invention has excellent effects, is interesting, and can comfortably and comfortably perform abdominal muscle exercises, unlike exercise equipment that was difficult to perform continuously as in the past. It can be said that it is an excellent abdominal exercise device that can exert continuity and easily increase the weight loss effect and the therapeutic effect on low back pain.
