Description

Foldable pilates equipment

The present invention relates to a foldable Pilates exercise device, and more particularly, to a foldable Pilates exercise device capable of increasing space utilization by making the Pilates exercise device foldable, and improving the folding method, which facilitates movement after folding.

Pilates is known to have been first started by Joseph H. Pilates, a German, around 1920 as an exercise method that relieves tension in the body and strengthens muscle strength at the same time. Pilates strengthens weak parts of the muscles and increases flexibility, and it increases muscle strength without increasing muscle size, which not only strengthens physical strength, but also has a significant effect on body maintenance. Recently, many related books and videos have been produced according to their popularity, and the registration number of the Korean Intellectual Property Office No. 20-0470891, the registration number of the Korean Intellectual Property Office No. Various types of Pilates exercise equipment such as No. 10-1633884 have been proposed.

As described above, various apparatuses for doing Pilates exercise have been devised, and representative ones of them are called leather barrels, combi chairs, reformers and cadillac. Currently, most of the Pilates exercise equipments are developed and sold to transform the above four exercise equipment or to supplement them, and the case of being made of wood is increasing in order to strengthen the marketability.

Among them, the Reformer is the most representative instrument devised by Joseph Pilates, and it is possible to perform resistance exercise to improve posture, develop core strength, and increase balance and flexibility. In this reformer, the upper plate is coupled to the bed-type frame, and the upper plate is connected to an internal spring so that the frame can reciprocate back and forth only when a predetermined or more force is applied. Using this, the reformer is intensively used to improve lower body strength and increase flexibility.

However, since the conventional reformer mechanism is based on a bed-type frame, it has a large volume and is made of solid wood and is heavy, and it is difficult to efficiently use the space in which the Pilates exercise is performed. In order to improve this, the present applicant has received a patent of 10-2092669 as a prior patent, but the folding method is complicated and difficult, so it is necessary to develop a new technology to improve it.

The present invention provides an apparatus for Pilates exercise, comprising: a body portion formed in a hollow rectangular parallelepiped frame structure, a support portion for supporting the ground at a lower end, and an open upper surface; a pair of rail members installed inside the main body, each fixed to opposite surfaces of the frame of the main body and having holes formed at regular intervals; a spring hook fixing member fixed adjacent to an upper surface of one end of the rail member and having grooves at regular intervals; a spring hook member that is detachably coupled to the groove of the spring hook fixing member and has protrusions formed at regular intervals to hang a spring ring; an upper plate positioned on the upper portion of the main body, the upper plate having wheels on the lower surface to enable linear movement along the rail member, the upper plate including a plurality of springs and a pair of wire fixing units on the lower surface; a pair of fixing blocks disposed to be spaced apart from each other on one side of the upper surface of the upper plate, and coupled to be detachably attached to the upper plate; and a footrest part coupled to and detached from the groove of the upper part of the first frame of the body part, wherein the body part includes a first frame constituting a front side, a second frame constituting a left side surface, and a third frame constituting a right side surface a first body part; and a second body including a fourth frame constituting the left side, a fifth frame constituting the right side, and a sixth frame constituting the rear side, wherein the first body part and the second body part are the main body It relates to a folding Pilates exercise device connected to a hinge having a rotating shaft on the upper side of the unit.

The main body forms the appearance of the foldable Pilates exercise device, that is, the reformer device according to the present embodiment. a first body part having a support part for supporting the ground and including a first frame 110 constituting a front side, a second frame 120 constituting a left side and a third frame 130 constituting a right side; and a fourth frame 140 constituting the left side, a fifth frame 150 constituting the right side, and a sixth frame 160 constituting the rear side.

In the following description, based on the state in which the reformer is installed on the floor, the upper surface is the upper surface direction in which the upper plate 200 is installed, the lower surface is the direction in contact with the floor surface, the front is the direction in which the foot bar 600 is installed, and the rear is the fixed block ( 210) means the direction in which it is installed. This can equally be applied to the upper part, the lower part, the front part, and the rear part.

As shown in FIG. 1 , the main body constitutes a skeleton in a rectangular shape, but the central part is manufactured in a cut shape and is preferably installed so that it can be folded around the cut part. To this end, the first body part and the second body part may be coupled using a hinge.

Looking at this in more detail, in the case of the conventional foldable reformer, the hinge is installed at the lower part of the reformer body, so that the central part of the reformer is folded while rising. However, in this case, the user has no choice but to lift the reformer by entering the central part of the reformer, and at this time, he may be injured by various structures in the reformer. In addition, even after raising the reformer as described above, in order to completely fold it, it had the inconvenience of having to come out and finally fold it.

However, in the case of the present invention, the reformer can be folded only by lifting the front part of the first body or the rear part of the second body by positioning the hinge part on the upper part of the body part. That is, in the case of the existing reformer, the front part and the rear part were folded to face the floor when folded, but in the present invention, the front part and the rear part can be folded to face upward, so that the user can safely fold it without entering the reformer. . In addition, when folded in the conventional direction, damage to the top plate 200 may occur as the top plate 200, which is an important part of the reformer, is folded to be exposed to the outside, but when folded in the direction of the present invention, the top plate 200 is the Since it is positioned between the first body part and the second body part, damage to the upper plate can be minimized (see FIG. 2 ).

In addition, when the hinge is installed as described above, the hinge connects the second frame 120 and the fourth frame 140 and the third frame 130 and the fifth frame 150. In this case, the connection portion of each frame The durability of the hinge may decrease if it is used for a long time because it is narrow. In order to prevent this, when the reformer is installed, the first auxiliary frame and the second auxiliary frame are respectively installed at the points where the first body part and the second body part are adjacent to each other, so that the first auxiliary frame and the second auxiliary frame are connected to the hinges. It is possible to secure the desired hinge installation area by fixing it through it.

That is, the first body part may constitute a rectangular skeleton composed of the first frame 120 , the second frame 120 , the third frame 130 and the first auxiliary frame, and the second body part is also A quadrangular skeleton composed of the second auxiliary frame, the fourth frame 140 , the fifth frame 150 , and the sixth frame 160 may be configured. In this case, the first auxiliary frame and the second auxiliary frame may be connected as the hinge.

The hinge is installed to connect the first body part and the second body part so that the main body part is folded. If the main body part can be folded, it can be used without limitation, but a hinge can be preferably used.

The first body part and the second body part may include protrusions at corresponding positions to form a gap for preventing pinching by the protrusions when the hinge is rotated and folded. The upper parts of the first body part and the second body part may be manufactured to be flat so that the upper plate 200 can move forward and backward. In this case, when the main body is folded, the contact point between the second frame 120 and the fourth frame 140 , and the third frame 130 and the fifth frame 150 comes into close contact without a gap (see FIG. 3 ). . When folded, if the parts of the reformer are sandwiched between the first body part and the second body part, not only may the parts be damaged, but also parts of the body such as fingers may be pinched and there is a risk of injury. Therefore, in order to compensate for this, it is preferable that the first body part and the second body part have protrusions at corresponding positions to form a gap for preventing pinching by the protrusions when the hinge is rotated and folded. In the case of the protrusion, it is preferable that the protrusion is respectively installed at corresponding positions of the first body part and the second body part in order to form a gap for preventing jamming while being positioned under the upper plate. In addition, in order to maximize this effect, it is preferable that the hinge portion is also attached to form a gap when the reformer is folded. Through this, even when the first body part and the second body part are completely folded, only the protrusion part and the hinge part come into contact with each other, which can prevent damage to equipment or injury to the human body due to pinching.

The material of the body part should have rigidity, and wood or other materials that are hard and heavy enough to withstand the external force according to the motion of a person exercising in the upper part will be possible. In the case of the present invention, it is preferable to use wood, and in order to secure the desired rigidity, the body part is preferably manufactured by processing flat wood. In addition, a reinforcing material made of wood, metal, or polymer resin may be additionally installed inside the main body to reinforce it.

In addition, the wood used for the main body may use wood processed into a flat wood, but may also use laminated material, plywood, particle board or medium-density fiberboard. In addition, in the case of the reformer, it is generally used indoors, and since it is used in contact with the human body, contamination by sweat or secretions can easily occur, and it can be used in an environment of high humidity. Since such high humidity and contamination may cause damage to wood, it is preferable to increase the durability of the main body through additional processing of wood to prevent this. Therefore, the wood used for the main body may be impregnated with a polymer resin to improve durability, a polymer resin may be applied to the surface, or a polymer resin film may be attached thereto.

The first body portion may include a wheel. The wheels have the effect of supporting the ground in the folding process of the main body and facilitating movement in the folding direction at the same time. In addition, when moving using a foot bar to be described later after folding the reformer, the foot bar can be used as a handle (see FIG. 3 ), and can be easily moved using the wheels. To this end, the wheel is installed at the lower end of the first body part based on the installed reformer, and it is preferable that a part of the wheel is exposed to the outside when the reformer is folded.

A fastener 170 may be provided at the connection part of the first body part and the second body part. The fastener is a device for fixing the main body in an unfolded state. When the exercise equipment is folded, the fastener 170 is released, and when the exercise equipment is unfolded and used, it is fastened to have the effect of integrating the first body part and the second body part with each other. The fastener 170 can be freely fastened and released according to the user's will, and a cicada ring and the like may correspond to this. In addition, it is preferable to additionally include a fixture in addition to the fastener to prevent the reformer from being unfolded when the reformer is folded. The fastener preferably uses the same fixing means as the fastener, and is installed in the first frame 110 and the sixth frame 160 to fix the reformer in a folded state.

The foldable Pilates exercise device may further include an anti-impact means installed to be rotatable. The shock prevention means is used as a means for preventing an impact generated as the first body part and the second body part come into contact when the reformer is folded. It is preferable to install it so that it is rotatably exposed to the outside when the reformer is folded. By the rotation as described above, the impact preventing means can be exposed to the outside only when folded, and when the reformer is installed, it is preferably located below the upper plate so as not to interfere with the reciprocation of the upper plate.

Various methods may be used as a method of rotating the shock prevention means, but the user may directly rotate it, or it may be installed to rotate freely and then exposed by gravity. In particular, in the case of the present invention, since the foot bar installed on the first body part constituting the front part can be used as a handle, the first body part can be folded to the upper part of the second body part when folded. Therefore, when the shock prevention means is installed in the first body part, it can be naturally exposed to the outside by gravity. However, since the above method may not work if the user needs to operate it every time or if it is folded upside down, damage may occur during non-operation. Therefore, it is preferable to mechanically rotate the shock prevention means by a folding operation by combining a gear and a wangi ㅓ.

The shock preventing means may be an elastic body, a spring or a damper fixed to the shock preventing support member, preferably a damper, more preferably a hydraulic damper having a large shock absorbing power. In the case of the hydraulic damper, it has a structure for absorbing shock by using the flow of a fluid, and the configuration is largely composed of a cylinder and a piston. Looking at this in detail, the piston head including a plurality of holes is installed inside the cylinder, and one end of the piston operating arm is connected to the piston head and the other end has a structure exposed to the outside. When an impact occurs in the longitudinal direction of the damper, the piston moves inside the cylinder, and at this time, the fluid filling the inside of the cylinder flows in and out through the hole of the piston head to control the movement of the piston head. Therefore, by adjusting the viscosity of the fluid, the moving speed of the piston according to a constant force can be adjusted, and through this, it can be used as a damper to reduce the impact. In the present invention, the damper is positioned between the first body part and the second body part and not only serves to control the contact speed of the first body part and the second body part, but also reduces the stretching force when the reformer is installed. It can also play a role.

The support portion of the main body may be formed with a protrusion 180 so as not to slip while supporting the ground, or may additionally include an anti-slip material.

The rail member 300 may be installed inside the frame of the main body. The rail member 300 provides a passage through which the rail wheel 260 of the upper plate can move in a straight line. The rail member may be installed on only one side of the main body, but is preferably installed on both sides so that the upper plate moves smoothly.

The rail member 300 may include holes 320 at regular intervals along the rail length direction, and the buffer member 310 is detachable from the hole to constrain the linear motion of the upper plate, and impact caused by the upper plate movement. and the hitting sound can be reduced (see FIG. 4 ). The buffer member 310 may be composed of a rod member insertable into the hole and a buffer material surrounding the rod member. The buffer member 310 may be installed only on one side of the rail member 300 , but is preferably installed on both sides of the rail member 300 to distribute the amount of impact.

The spring hook fixing member 240 forms grooves into which the spring hook member 250 can be inserted at regular intervals, and may be fixed to one end of the rear portion of the rail member 300 . The spring hook member 250 is detachably attached to the groove of the spring hook fixing member 240 and is characterized in that a plurality of protrusions for hanging the spring ring are formed.

A user of the reformer mechanism according to an embodiment of the present invention may set the strength of resistance applied to the Pilates operation by hanging a spring ring on the protrusion of the spring hook member 240 . The upper plate 200 may include a plurality of springs 220 (see FIGS. 1 and 6 ), and various resistance values may be set by combining springs having different elasticity.

A pair of fixing blocks 210 spaced apart from each other may be coupled to the upper surface of the top plate 200 (see FIGS. 1 and 5 ). The fixing block 210 may easily support the elastic force of the upper plate spring 220 by contacting a body such as a shoulder or a user's knee or foot when the user lies down.

Since the upper surface of the upper plate 200 and the fixing block 210 are in direct contact with the user's body during exercise, it is preferably made of a material that is strong in sweat and has good durability while having a suitable cushioning and texture.

A wheel 260 may be installed on the lower surface of the upper plate 200 to enable linear movement of the upper plate along the rail member 300 . Since friction may occur between the side of the upper plate and the frame of the main body during the linear motion process, it is preferable to additionally install wheels in the lateral direction in contact with the frame (see FIG. 6 ).

The embodiment according to the present invention may include not only the upper plate 200 but also the lower plate. The lower plate is located on the upper part of the main body and is detachable. The lower plate has a function of providing a fixed movement space in the upper part of the main body. When you want to exercise in a stationary position without moving, you will be able to exercise on it using the lower plate. That is, the upper plate 200 is installed to be movable, and the lower half is fixed to be non-movable, and the upper and lower plates can be selectively or simultaneously used according to the user's exercise method.

The present invention may include a wire moving part. The wire movement unit has one end of the elastic wire fixed to the wire fixing unit under the upper plate, and passes through a pulley fixed to the height adjustment bar. The other end of the elastic wire is connected to the band handle.

A user of the reformer may perform a Pilates motion on the upper plate, and may perform an operation of pulling an elastic wire using the band handle. Since the user's muscular strength and the elastic force of the upper plate spring 220 act in opposite directions, it is possible to adjust the strength of the muscle strength exercise by adjusting the elastic force of the spring.

In addition, a wire fixing part is installed on the lower surface of the upper plate to fix one end of the elastic wire. Conventionally, the method of fixing the elastic wire to the upper plate or the frame by a simple knot has a possibility of loosening the knot during the exercise process, and there is an inconvenience that the user has to pay attention to tightly knot it, but the wire fixing part easily and firmly attaches the elastic wire can be fixed

The wire fixing unit may include a grooved bracket 470 , a rotating member 450 having rotational elasticity, and a wire guide 460 . One end of the elastic wire is inserted into the groove formed in the bracket 470 and wound, and then passes through the loop of the wire guide 460 and passes between the pair of elastic rotation members 450 , and the pair of elastic rotation members 450 . The elastic wire can be fixed by the rotational elasticity of (see FIG. 6).

It may include a footrest part 500 for attaching and detaching to the groove of the upper part of the first frame of the body part (see FIG. 4 ). A groove may be formed in the upper portion of the first frame 110 of the main body, and the footrest unit 500 may be attached to the groove so as to be detachably attached. In addition, since the footrest part 500 has a function of supporting the feet of the instrument user, it may include friction tape or other components having the same effect to increase frictional force with the feet.

The footrest part 500 may be configured in various shapes according to the preference of the user of the instrument, and the position of the foot of the instrument user may be changed according to the shape of the footrest unit 500 so that the muscles stimulated during exercise can be adjusted. For example, when the footrest 500 configured in a wide plate shape is vertically coupled to the upper groove of the first frame, the user of the appliance lying on the upper plate supports the foot on the footrest formed vertically with the legs bent at about 90 degrees and moves By doing so, you can effectively stimulate the muscles of the buttocks and thighs.

The present invention may also include a height adjustment bar 420 and a pulley 410 . The height adjustment bar 420 may be fixedly installed outside the sixth frame 160 of the main body. A through portion 440 is formed in the longitudinal direction of the height adjustment bar 420 , and the pulley 410 can adjust the height along the through portion 440 . In addition, the manually operated screw 430 passes through the through portion 440 and is connected to the pulley 410 , and by applying pressure to the height adjustment bar 420 , the position of the pulley 410 on the through portion 440 . can be fixed. The method of forming holes at regular intervals in the height adjustment bar 420 and fixing the pulley 410 in the hole was inconvenient to set the height of the pulley 410 that is just right for the body of the user of the appliance, but this embodiment It is possible to freely adjust the height of the pulley 410 (see FIG. 5). In addition, when the height adjustment bar 420 is not required as described above, the pulley 410 may be fixedly installed inside the sixth frame 160 (see FIG. 1 ).

The present invention also includes a horizontal bar 620 and a support member 630 connected to the horizontal bar, located on the front part of the body part, and one end of the support member 630 is the second frame 120 of the body part. and a foot bar ( 600 ) fixed to rotate on the outside of the third frame 130 , which is positioned on the front side of the main body when the main body is folded, and used as a handle for movement.

The foot bar 600, like the footrest 500, is a part that supports the user's feet during exercise. It may include a horizontal bar 620 on which the user's feet are placed and a support member 630 of the horizontal bar. One end of the support member 630 may be connected to the horizontal bar 620 , and the other end may be fixedly installed on the body frame. The support member 630 is rotated about the part fixed to the frame of the main body as an axis, and the inclination can be adjusted.

The support member 630 may be rotated outside the frame of the main body to prevent interference with other components. That is, the first frame 110 of the main body portion when the rail member 300, the spring hook fixing member 240 and the spring hanging member 250 installed therein is minimized, and the support member 630 is laid down as much as possible. It is desirable not to get caught in the Through this, it will be possible to prevent interference with the footrest unit 500 .

In addition, when the support member 630 is laid down as much as possible, the foot bar 600 may be positioned to be horizontal with the main body portion, and it may be easier to fold the reformer by using the foot bar 600 as a handle. In the case of the existing reformer, since the central part was lifted and folded, a handle had to be additionally installed around the central part, and the foot bar 600 was fixed at a predetermined position so as not to contact the floor when folded. However, in the case of the present invention, since the front portion and the rear portion constituting both ends are lifted and folded, the foot bar 600 and the floor do not interfere. Rather, it is easier to fold as described above by using the foot bar 600 as a handle. It is possible (see FIG. 2). In addition, in the case of the foot bar 600, it can be used as a handle when moving as well as when folded as described above (refer to FIG. 3).

In order to keep the inclination of the support member 630 constant, an inclination adjusting unit 610 may be installed. The inclination adjusting unit 610 may form a groove at every predetermined angle, and the protrusion formed at the end of the support member 630 may be caught in the groove of the inclination adjusting unit, thereby maintaining a constant inclination of the supporting member. In addition, the inclination adjustment unit may be formed on the outside of the frame (see FIG. 4), but it is also possible to be formed on the inside of the frame for a smooth appearance (see FIG. 1).

The present invention may also include an auxiliary exercise device. The auxiliary exercise device may be installed by a user exercising on the upper plate to obtain an additional exercise effect. In the case of an exercise that pulls a spring or an elastic wire, since the part where the muscle is stimulated varies according to the pulling angle, various parts can be trained by using the auxiliary exercise device to set the pulling angle differently.

The auxiliary exercise device may include a vertical pipe perpendicular from the ground. One end of the vertical pipe may be in contact with the ground to support the ground, and a horizontal pipe may be fixed by connecting the vertical pipes to each other at the upper end.

The vertical pipe or the horizontal pipe of the assistive exercise device may include a hole.
