Description

Bench Press Mechanism {BENCH PRESS}

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bench press mechanism, and more particularly, to an exercise device including a bench and a barbell used for developing upper body muscles.

The bench press is an exercise device mainly used to develop upper body muscles, and is a kind of exercise device that allows exercise while repeating a process of lifting or lowering a barbell up and down while lying on a narrow bench.

1 shows an example of a conventional bench press. Referring to Figure 1, the bench press is fixed to the bench 10 and the bench 10 provides a space for the user to lie down, a pair of barbell support 20 and the barbell support for fixing the barbell And a barbell 30 to be placed at 20.

The barbell support part 20 is provided with a barbell mounting part 22 for protruding the barbell 30, and is mounted on the barbell mounting part 22 with the bar 32 of the barbell 30 being raised. . On the other hand, both ends of the bar 32 of the barbell 30 is provided with a weight 34 to have an appropriate weight.

When describing the exercise process using the bench press as described above, the user is repeatedly moved up and down while holding the bar 32 in the state lying on the bench 10, the weight of the barbell 30 in consideration of the exercise effect It will have a weight that exceeds the weight that can be easily handled by the user.

Therefore, if the user misses the barbell by mistake or due to a decrease in physical fitness during exercise, the user may be injured due to the fall of the barbell. For this reason, in general, the bench press exercise should be exercised under the attendance of the assistant, but it is often difficult to obtain an assistant so that the exercise is often forced to abandon the exercise or risk the safety accident.

Recently, in order to solve such a problem, various types of bench presses have been proposed. Looking at these, a separate damping mechanism or a complicated structure are often used, which makes maintenance difficult and causes a rise in device prices.

The present invention has been made to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art as described above, the technical problem is to provide a bench press mechanism that does not cause a safety accident even if the barbell is missed during the exercise process.

According to the present invention for achieving the above technical problem, the bench having a seating portion to be seated on the ground and the height adjustment portion mounted to the seating portion; A barbell support part installed side by side on both sides of the bench; And a barbell mounted on the barbell support unit and having a bar bar fixed at both ends thereof, wherein the bar comprises: a handle part having a 'c' shape; And a weight fastening part extending from both ends of the handle part.

According to the aspect of the present invention, since the weight between the fastening portion and the handle portion is spaced apart from each other, even if the user misses the barbell by mistake or due to deterioration of the physical strength so that the weight fastening portion first touches the ground before the handle portion touches the user's body Therefore, the impact on the body can be prevented and the occurrence of a safety accident can be prevented. Here, according to the physical condition of the user, the handle may first come in contact with the body, so that the height of the bench by adjusting the height of the bench to enable a safe movement.

The height adjustment unit may use a variety of forms, for example, may be used to form a screw coupled to the inside of the seating portion.

Here, the handle portion and the weight fastening portion may extend in parallel in a state spaced apart from each other. In this case, the angle between the handle portion and the weight fastening portion may be a right angle.

In addition, the barbell support portion may extend along the longitudinal direction of the barbell support portion, a guide groove may be formed to guide the movement of the barbell during movement. As a result, the barbell may be present inside the guide groove even when the barbell falls, thereby preventing the bar from hitting the body while rotating about the weight.

According to the present invention having the configuration as described above, even if the user misses the barbell by accident or physical deterioration, the weight fastening portion first touches the ground before the handle portion touches the user's body, so that the body is not impacted and safety accidents occur. Can be prevented.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail an embodiment of the bench press according to the present invention.

2 shows an embodiment 100 of a bench press according to the invention, which embodiment 100 comprises a bench 110. The bench 110 includes a cushion part 112 providing a space for a user to lie down and a seating part 114 for seating the cushion part 112 to be spaced apart from the ground by a predetermined distance. The seating part 114 is formed of a metal pipe such as steel, etc., and the height adjusting part 116 is mounted at the end of the seating part 114.

As shown in FIG. 3, the height adjusting part 116 is screwed to the inside of the seating part 114, and for this purpose, a threaded part 114a is formed on an inner surface of the end side of the seating part 114. The height adjusting part 116 is provided with a bolt part 116a coupled to the threaded part 114a. Therefore, the height of the bench 110 may be adjusted according to the degree of rotating the height adjusting unit 116.

The seating portion 114 is also equipped with a pair of barbell supports 120. The barbell support portion 120 is made of a metal material having a rectangular cross section as shown, the upper portion is formed with a guide groove 122 extending along the longitudinal direction of the barbell support portion 120, to mount the barbell on the front side Barbell mounting portion 124 is formed.

The barbell 130 mounted on the barbell mounting part 124 includes a bar 132 and a weight 134. The bar 132 has a handle portion 132a having a 'c' shape as a whole and the handle. And a weight fastening portion 132b extending from both ends of the portion 132a. The weight fastening portion 132b extends perpendicular to the end of the handle portion 132a, and as a result, the weight fastening portion and the handle portion extend in parallel with each other at a predetermined distance.

Here, the separation distance is set such that the handle portion 132a does not come into contact with the user's body even when the weight 134 touches the ground. However, if the user has a body size of more than the standard can be adjusted by lowering the height of the bench 110 through the height adjustment unit 116.

On the other hand, near both ends of the handle portion (132a) is a knurled gripping portion (132c) is formed to prevent slipping, but is not necessarily limited to this form, and can also be considered to cover the outer cover made of a material such as rubber. have.

The operation of the above embodiment will now be described with reference to FIG.

The barbell 130 is typically mounted on the barbell holder 124. When the user exercises, the user lifts the barbell 130 and moves while moving up and down while being positioned inside the guide groove 122. If the user misses the barbell 130 due to a mistake or a decrease in physical strength, the weight 134 first touches the ground so that the user's body is not pressed by the barbell 130. In addition, although the bar 132 may rotate based on the weight 134 touching the ground, in this case, the bar 132 is limited by the guide groove 122 so that the bar 132 may rotate. There is no problem such as hitting the user.

On the other hand, after finishing the exercise is to be mounted on the barbell mounting portion 124 by lifting the barbell 130, in this case there is a risk of dropping the barbell in the mounting process because it raises the barbell 130 to a considerable height have.

To this end, as shown in FIG. 5, an example in which the barbell holder 124 ′ is formed in the guide groove 122 may be considered. In this case, there is no need to lift the barbell up to the upper end of the barbell support part 120 in order to mount the barbell 130, so that the risk of a safety accident may be further reduced.
