Weight exercise machines have been developed that do not use pedals to lift weight at the waist rotation of the upper body. These machines are widely used in sports centers as ROTARY TORSO EXERCISE APPARATUS (US patent registration UP04456245) and similar devices.

Rotary torso exercise equipment has a method of fixing the lower body to twist the upper body, and a method of fixing the upper body to twist the lower body. And it is an exercise device for the purpose of performing the muscle exercise which lifts the force of the selected weight to the rotational force of a rotating body before performing exercise.

There has been developed an exercise device that removes heavy weight from such torso exercise equipment, and induces waist twist by pedaling using the lower body force of the exerciser.

Such exercise apparatuses are the inventions of Documents 1 to 3 mentioned in the prior art.

Document 1 is a structure in which the foot of an athlete is used to step on a pedal and crosses the waist with the force. In other words, the pedal circular wheel body rotated by the pedal and the shaft circular wheel body provided with the seat portion are fastened by a steel sun belt so that the shaft circular wheel body provided with the seat portion can be circularly moved by the forward and backward circular motions of both pedals. And the backrest body which is rotated integrally with a seat part is installed. The handle portion induces a waist twist of the exerciser's body.

Such an exercise device is an exercise device that rotates the torsional motion of the lower back by using the lower body force, but weight exercise, which is a function of the rotary torso exercise machine, is difficult to expect. In addition, there is no load factor related to the rotational force of the rotating body during the twisting motion, so the stretching works, but there is no strength control function of the motion.

Such exercise cannot provide a large amount of exercise in a short time in the actual exercise. In addition, compared to the cross-pedal pedal exercise mechanism and the rotating cycling pedal movement, it is difficult to expect a change in force running on hills and flats, and it is difficult to commercialize it as an aerobic exercise machine because it cannot give a strong change in pedal force.

Looking at the power transmission structure, because the shaft wheel and the pedal wheel body is tensioned and circulated connection by the auxiliary wheel, the structure of the upper steel wire belt and the base has a high distance away from the base significantly reduces the accessibility of the mechanism to the user.

Circular connections of steel wire belts require a lot of work time in productivity and after service. In addition, the circular connection structure of the steel wire belt does not step on the pedal, and the pedal moves left and right when only the upper body movement is performed by rotating the handle part. The alternating repetitive movement of these pedals is inevitable when the athlete tries to hold the upper body handle and only the waist movement. And the pedal movement acts as a spatial obstacle around the fixed foot of the athlete supporting the floor and visual disturbance as the pedal repeatedly moves at the foot supporting the floor when the athlete who requires only the waist movement performs the exercise. do.

The pedal shaft fixed shaft spaced apart by the radius of the pedal wheel has to be designed with a high position of the chair-type seat, so that the height of the mechanism is inevitably increased due to smooth bending and extension of the legs.

In order to perform the pedal movement smoothly with the height of the chair-type seat lowered, the shaft wheel and the pedal wheel should be designed to be far from the plane so that the movement of the foot is smooth. Bring it.

In one seat shaft part, the combined weight of chair type seat, lower frame part, back part, handle part, and shaft wheel are added together with the movement force of the exerciser. Will act as an increasing factor.

When the user repeatedly performs the movement by crossing the pedals, the pulling tension of the steel wire belt is transmitted to the seat shaft installed upright with the base, and when this action is accumulated, the seat shaft portion may be deformed in the upright angle or the lower portion may easily break. It becomes a factor.

Since the back part of the chair-type seat back acts as a swinging body that rotates when the pedal is pressed, it cannot support the hips of the athlete. When the user presses the pedal during exercise, the hips of the body cannot be suppressed. Far away from the pedal, the cross-movement of the pedal is unnatural, the movement effect decreases, and the pedal cannot be pressed hard, which causes the twist movement effect to decrease.

The backrest also supports the user's back because it is designed to rest on the user's back. Such an athlete's support reduces the range of motion in the twist range of motion that must be exercised from the lumbar spine to the shoulder area.

The chair seat is fixed to the seat shaft portion in its upper saddle. The fixed chair-type seat structure does not give the hip joint and pelvis fluidity while the athlete twists the pedal, so the twist does not act on the body with a soft sensation. Performing a full-body exercise with the pelvic part in a fixed chair reduces rigidity of the rigid legs in the pedaling motion, and also reduces the rhythmic sensation in the twisting movement of the waist. Therefore, the movement is not smooth and the flexibility is low.

The handle part that rotates around the chair-type seating part is not structured to effectively wrap the upper body together with the back part and the handle part supported on the lower frame part equipped with one side bevel gear, so it is not unnatural for the rotation of the waist to occur. Twist movement evenly from the shoulder to the lumbar region, and above all the twisting movement of the waist does not work strongly. In addition, the handle portion serves to move the handle to the length adjustable type, but the entire handle portion does not rise and fall vertically, the upper body movement method and range is reduced.

And the invention of the document 2 is a pedal that twists the waist by the force of the leg is rotated in the cycle type along the circular trajectory, the power linked to the arm connected to the pedal acts to twist the waist, the rotation angle of the left and right rotation of the waist It is not bigger than the effective structure of the waist movement.

The pedal, which rotates like a pedal of the cycle, is in a position to sit on the saddle and grab the handle located behind the saddle. The twist is not smooth and strong torsion is difficult to expect.

The saddle is also adjustable in height, but the rotation is not made, so when the pedal movement occurs, the saddle wear between the torsion of the waist and the movement of the foot is severe, and above all, the flexibility of the movement is greatly reduced.

In particular, the left and right rotation angles transmitted from the pedal force to the handle to the link structure does not exceed 100 degrees, which is a structure that expects only the light effect of shaking the upper body soon.

Document 3 is a mechanism for inducing a twist of the waist by using the force of the foot, the rotation axis of the waist is made in front of the saddle, the radius of rotation of the handle portion is wide, and pedaling movement crosswise. However, when the handle is held off by the user's palm during exercise, there is a high possibility that the user may be injured, and the apparatus also has to grow.

Since the handle is rotated in front of the body, the twisting motion of the waist does not occur at the center of the body and the movement effect is reduced. In addition, if the belt falls while standing up, the user's safety problems occur.

The present invention has been devised to solve the above problems, the athlete can safely perform a twisting movement of the waist with the force of the pedal safely on the exercise equipment without risk factors, the twist rotation angle acts to maximize the whole body movement effect And, it is an object of the present invention to provide an exercise device to facilitate the adjustment of strength and strength by selecting the exercise load during exercise.

It is also an object of the present invention to provide a whole body exercise apparatus configured to independently perform a rotary torso exercise, which is an upper body exercise, without pedaling.

The present invention for achieving the above object, has a structure of a pedal to rotate the left and right alternately in a link-type, provides a structure in which the link movement of the pedal to rotate the handle, whereby the hip portion is seated on the chair The pedal movement in the state is converted into a twisting movement of the torso to provide a structure in which the efficiency of the whole body movement is increased.

According to the present invention, the exerciser can safely perform the twisting movement of the waist by the force of the pedal safely on the exercise equipment without the risk factor, and the twist rotation angle is large, maximizing the whole body movement effect, and the exercise load can be selected during the exercise. Anyone can do it easily, and there is a convenience that the athlete can independently perform the upper body rotary torso exercise without pedaling.

The whole-body exercise device according to the present invention allows the movement of the pedal 1 to twist the torso. The hip part of the user is seated and fixed to the chair 2, and the arm and the torso are twisted.

A structure is provided by the present invention to enable such an exercise to be effective, convenient and safe, the basic embodiment of which is as follows.

First, the present invention, as known in the art, a pair of left and right pedals 1 supported on the main frame (3); A chair 2 fixed to the main frame 3 and installed at a predetermined height; A handle 4 installed higher than the chair 2; It comprises a; belt (5) for rotating the handle (4) by the drive of the pedal (1).

The main frame 3 is a base of each component located under the exerciser, and each component is a structure that is connected to the main frame 3 by welding or bolt.

The present invention has been developed in the above basic configuration, as shown in Figures 1 and 3, the rotary column 6 is installed vertically to be rotated in place below the center of the chair (2); The handle 4 is fixedly installed on the rotating column 6; The belt 5 is pivoted to the rotating column 6, and both ends thereof are fixed to both side pedals 1, and the center portion of the belt 5 wound around the rotating column 6 is attached to the belt fastener 7. It is a structure fixed to the rotating column (6). Therefore, the rotating pillar 6 and the handle 4 are integrally rotated by a predetermined angle by the repeated operation of both pedals 1.

The rotary column 6 may be implemented in a structure that is automatically driven by a motor so as to function as a rehabilitation device. That is, the motor is mounted at a specific position of the main frame 3, and the pulley is installed on the outer periphery of the rotating column 6 so that the rotating column 6 can be rotated by the driving of the motor, and the motor and the pulley are belts. Connected to the back and can be carried out to enable the exercise for rehabilitation by electric power. Of course, it can be implemented in various structures other than the belt, and any structure in which the rotating column 6 can be rotated by a motor is possible.

In addition, by adding an electronic circuit and a sensor electrically operated by a battery or the like, the device may be configured to recognize the rotation information of the rotating column (6) and to display the sound or lamp accordingly. In this configuration, there is a convenience in which a given exercise can be achieved by inputting a user's exercise time and the number of exercise.

And the handle (4) can be safe and effective exercise by varying the height in accordance with the user's physical conditions or aspects of the movement, the present invention has a structure in which the height of the handle (4) is adjusted. That is, the rotation post 8 is fixed to the rotary post 6, the handle 4 is a structure that is installed so that the height is adjusted to the rotation post (8).

1 and 3, the rotation post 8 installed vertically is a tubular body having a hole in the center thereof, and a fastening pin 9a penetrating the tubular body is installed at an upper portion thereof. And the handle 4 is installed in the handle support 10, the handle support 10 is a thickness that is inserted into the hole of the rotation post 8, a plurality of pin holes 11 are drilled at regular intervals. Therefore, the handle support 10 is inserted into the rotation post 8, the fastening pin (9a) is pinned to the pinhole (11) structure.

And the present invention has a structure for adjusting the strength of the pedal step 1 to the spring force. That is, as shown in Figure 3 is attached to the spring tension control plate 13 formed so that a plurality of engaging grooves 12 are arranged in a direction away from the rotating column 6 to the upper portion of the rotating column (6); One end of the tension spring (14) is fastened to the main frame (3); The other end of the tension spring 14 is configured to be selectively fastened to the engaging groove 12 of the spring tension control plate (13).

Therefore, as the other end of the tension spring 14 is fastened to the locking groove 12 on the side away from the rotating column 6, the pedaling force of the pedal 1 is increased, thereby increasing the exercise intensity.

In order to prevent the belt 5 from being caught during exercise or the belt 5 is placed too high to interfere with the movement or act as a risk factor, the belt 5 is operated at a low position, and the pedal 1 A structure is provided that facilitates interaction with the device. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the guide roller 15 is installed between the pedal 1 and the rotating pillar 6 of the upper surface of the main frame 3, and the belt 5 is the guide roller 15. The structure is guided in contact with the lower portion of the. The guide roller 15 may be a cylindrical roller, or may have a structure in which a groove in which the belt 5 is inserted is formed on the circumferential surface.

And the operation of the pedal (1) has a structure to smoothly rotate the rotating column 6, as shown in FIG. That is, the rotating column 6 is installed on the central axis 16 fixed to the main frame 3 in the vertical direction, and rotates in place with the central axis 16 as the rotation center. The rotary column 6 may be fastened to the central axis 16 via a bearing, so that rotation may occur very flexibly.

Of course, the rotating column 6 may be detachably installed in the main frame 3 in a vertical direction, or both of the fixed coupling or the rotating coupling may be installed detachably.

And the present invention has a structure that allows the pedal (1) to work well to twist the body. That is, as shown in Figures 1 and 3, the pedal 1 is connected in the shape of a link in which the pedal arm 17 and the belt arm 18 are bent at an angle, the pedal arm 17 and the belt arm ( 18 is pivotally pivoted to the main frame 3 to the pedal shaft 19, the end of the pedal arm 17 is provided with a support 20 for stepping on the foot, the belt arm 18 The end of the belt) is a structure that the end of the belt (5) is fastened.

The pedal shaft 19 may vary the installation position of the main frame (3). This is to correspond to the physical size of the exerciser using the present invention, so that the position change variability of the pedal shaft 19 is made on the horizontal plane of the main frame 3 can function to adjust the distance to the chair (2). .

The support 20 may be changed into various shapes such as a cylindrical shape or a square shape in a removable manner. The angle between the belt arm 18 and the pedal arm 17 can be varied, but about 90 degrees is ideal. However, even if the angle between 90 degrees or less and the guide roller 15 is removed and the rotary column 6 is rotated, there is no problem in generating the kinetic effect of the present invention.

And the chair 2 is installed on the upper part of the fixing body 21 installed perpendicular to the main frame 3, the hip part of the athlete, that is, the lower body part is seated on the chair 2 and is in a fixed position, only the upper body is torsion It is a structure that allows exercise.

The chair 2 may be installed to be fixed to the fixed body 21, but preferably has a structure that can be flexibly rotated through a bearing or the like. In the case of the chair 2 installed to rotate, rotation occurs, but in the actual movement, the rotation angle of the chair 2 occurs to less than 10 degrees.

A small amount of rotation occurring in the chair 2 of the rotational embodiment may apply flexibility at the pelvis when the repetitive movement of the pedal 1 and the repetitive torsional movement of the waist occur to smooth the whole body movement.

In addition to the rotation of the chair (2) it is possible to give a fluid at a slight angle to the site of the lower rotation of the chair (2) to have a structure for obtaining a smoother motion.

Both ends of the central shaft 16 are fixed to each other by a bolt or the like between the fixture 21 and the main frame 3. In order to facilitate fastening of the central shaft 16, the support plate 22 horizontally installed may be installed at the upper end of the fixing body 21. The support plate 22 is connected to the hip support 23 and does not move irrespective of the flow of the rotating column 6 or the chair 2.

Of course, the chair 2 may be installed to rotate on the fixed body 21 in the structure without the support plate 22 or the support plate 22, the rotation of the chair 2 may be determined in consideration of the effect of the movement. .

In addition, the hips 23 are installed on the fixing body 21 to protrude upward from the rear side of the chair 2, and when the foot 1 is exercised by stepping on the pedal 1 with a large force, the hip part, that is, the lower body is pushed backwards, thereby It has a structure which prevents an effect from falling.

The hip support 23 is installed on the fixed body 21 or the support plate 22 so as to be changeable in the position of the hip support 24 protruding upward of the chair 2. Hip stand 23 is fastened to the hip support 24 by a fastening pin (9b), after adjusting the hip position of the user or determine the position of the hip stand 23 according to the physical size using the fastening pin (9b). It is fixed to the hip support (24). In this way, the hip rest 23 can be adjusted to the hip position by the fastening pin (9b).

The hip rest 23 prevents the body of the user sitting on the swivel chair from being greatly rotated, and changes the hip position to cope with changes in the body along with the position of the handle 4 where the torsion occurs and expands the movement range.

And it has a characteristic structure of the handle (4) for guiding the torsional movement of the upper body, which causes the handle (4) to be installed in front of the body, the athlete sitting on the chair (2) naturally put the arms and hands It is a structure to guide the torsional movement. That is, the handle 4 is in the shape of a circular arc so as to come out ahead of the user's torso, both sides of the shape is extended to the front of the chair 2, both ends are bent upward to the user easy to grasp by hand to be. And the handle 4 may be connected in a sense of unity perpendicular to the handle support 10, it is also possible to add a link structure.

In the present invention having the structure as described above, the main frame 3 is placed on the floor of the place where the user wants to exercise, and the whole body exercise is performed in the position of the exerciser as shown in FIG.

Alignment of the belt (5) is to position both pedals 1 at the same angle as shown in Fig. 1, the center of the belt (5) to be fixed to the rear of the rotating column (6) with a belt fastener (7). Of course, the belt 5 is positioned below the guide roller 15.

The user should adjust the height of the handle 4, the position of the hip rest 23, and determine the fastening position of the tension spring 14 in accordance with his physical condition and the amount of exercise. That is, the handle 4 is inserted into the rotary post (8) by the handle support 10 to the appropriate height, then the fastening pin (9a) to the pin hole 11 of the rotary post (8) and the handle support (10). Fix it. And after determining the position of the hip support 23 is fixed to the hip support 24 using the fastening pin (9b). In addition, the tension spring 14 is fastened by selecting the upper end of the plurality of engaging grooves 12 formed in the spring tension control plate 13, as shown in FIG. As the fastening to the locking groove 12 is located away from the central axis 16, the larger the force is required because the rotation column 6 has a larger displacement of the spring. Therefore, when you want a large exercise force is fastened to the outer locking groove 12, when you want to exercise with a weak force is to fasten to the locking groove 12 formed inside.

A plan view (looking down from the top) of the whole body exercise device in the ready state as shown above is shown in FIG. 4, with the handle 4 aligned forward and the two pedals 1 also I am taking the same posture.

In this state, when the exerciser is seated on the chair 2 and the feet are placed on the support 20 of the pedal 1 evenly, the state becomes as shown in FIG. 2. Subsequently, when the pedal 1 is pressed using the right leg and the foot as shown in FIG. 5, the torso is rotated counterclockwise and twisted. At this time, the body is twisted in the opposite direction of the foot on the pedal (1).

That is, when the right pedal 1 is pressed, the belt 5 is moved and the center portion of the belt 5 is fixed to the rotational column 6, so that the rotational column 6 is counterclockwise as shown in FIG. Is rotated. However, the chair 2 is rotated a little by the torsion of the body regardless of the operation of the pedal 1, even if the structure is capable of maintaining a fixed position irrespective of the operation of the pedal (1), or can be rotated by itself It's just a structure.

As shown in FIG. 3, the movement of the belt 5 is guided by the guide roller 15, which is moved at a position close to the main frame 3. Therefore, the foot of the athlete is not disturbed.

In particular, as shown in FIG. 1, the belt arm 18 to which the belt 5 is fastened can be rotated from the state in which the belt arm 18 is located close to the main frame 3, thereby making a large twist. . That is, without the guide roller 15, the horizontal displacement of the belt 5 becomes less because the belt 5 moves about the belt fastener 7 when the belt arm 18 rotates upward. However, since the guide roller 15 is installed, it is possible to increase the horizontal displacement amount by which the belt 5 rotates the rotary column 6.

As described above, a large amount of displacement is generated by the operation of the pedal 1, and as shown in FIG. 5, the handle 4 is rotated at a large angle counterclockwise.

The handle 4 positions the arm and hand of the athlete stably, maintains a stable posture during the torsional exercise of the torso, and serves as a guide to maximize the exercise effect.

In this manner, the rotating column 6 rotates by the movement of the pedal 1, and the handle 4 installed to be fixed to the rotating column 6 rotates together. When the pedal 1 is pressed again using the left foot, the handle 4 is rotated in the clockwise direction in the state of FIG. 5 to rotate through the state shown in FIG. Therefore, the state of the handle 4 shown by the solid line and the double-dot chain line in FIG. 5 is repeatedly moved.

There is also an effect of weight movement by the spring force of the tension spring 14 at the time of the step of twisting the torso by stepping on the pedal 1 using the legs and feet.

And when the pedal 1 is removed from the main frame 3 and removed or aligned, as shown in FIG. 1, the upper body can be twisted directly rather than using the pedal 1. That is, not only twisting by the movement of the pedal 1, but selectively twisting by the pedaling force and the spring force of the pedal 1, or the exerciser himself, there is a convenience and versatility may also be able to twist the body by themselves.

In addition, the upper body should not be pushed back in order for the effective exercise with the effort and spring force. Therefore, the present invention is installed hip support 23 to support the hip.

As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the hip rest 23 is in contact with the buttocks of the exerciser to prevent the body from being pushed back, so that both the stepping force can act as a rotational force for twisting.
