Description

Squat assist device

This creation belongs to the technical field of fitness equipment, especially a squat assisting device with simple structure, which can enhance the training effect and is convenient for the user to operate, thereby achieving the effect of reducing cost.

According to the lack of exercise, modern people generally suffer from acid, pain or stiffness in the waist, lower back and knees, which makes the feet and the waist weakly support the trunk effectively, changing the support center of the human body, especially for the elderly to adjust the body. The center of gravity will have a situation of bending knees and bending over. Under the accumulation of many years, it will not be able to stand for a long time or even stand up straight. It will not only affect the posture, but also affect the flexibility of the action. Causes different pathological changes in the body. The main cause of the formation of back pain is that the muscle strength near the spine is too weak to be properly caused by the weight of the body;

Therefore, if you have proper exercise to strengthen the muscles in the abdomen, back and trunk, you can avoid or reduce the symptoms of lower back pain. In addition, the muscle is the active component that controls joint activity. When the muscle contracts, the joint will move. If the muscle control ability is poor, the joint will also be painful. Therefore, if the long-term intensive exercise of muscles, bones, ligaments and joints can prevent the early appearance of knees, bends and hunches, these maintenance exercises can maintain joint flexibility and increase knee strength and endurance. In all kinds of sports, the standing movement [or squat, half a squat] can provide the trunk, lumbar vertebrae, lower abdomen, Training in the muscles of the thighs, thighs, bones and joints has a great effect on overcoming the aforementioned knees, bending and hunchback.

However, when performing a standing movement, the knee is often flexed to a certain extent by the weight of the body, and then the standing posture is restored. In order to avoid sports injuries, the beginner or the thigh muscles are insufficiently supported by the user. Or objects to support the weight of the body, but the aforementioned traditional practices have not really assisted the athletes to perform the standing movement. The posture of standing movement also requires the thigh muscle strength and the total force of the abdomen and the back muscles of the trunk. In the process of up and down, improper force or incorrect posture may cause excessive stress to concentrate on the knee or thigh, and it is extremely easy to operate improperly. Causes the wear of the knee or the strain of the thigh muscles, and even affects the ability to walk in the future, without first benefiting;

In recent years, the industry has additionally developed a variety of fitness equipment with a stand-up function, such as the Chinese Patent Publication No. 313866 and No. I260235, wherein the disclosure of the No. 313866 is for the user to stand on a foot pivoted on the bracket. The tube and the handle pivoted on the bracket can simultaneously drive the seat cushion and the foot tube. In operation, since the foot tube moves along with the handle, the entire body of the user is also driven to change the posture, so that the user cannot be completely The body is straight and the waist and legs are less stressed, so the training of the lower body is insufficient and the demand for standing movement cannot be achieved. As for the No. I260235, the seat cushion and the foot tube are integrally designed and pivoted on the main frame, which is mainly used for the lacing movement, and the standing movement is performed by the user standing at the rear end of the main frame. It is a bit like the traditional way of holding things up and standing, unable to meet the user's standing movement needs.

In other words, the above-mentioned auxiliary equipment does not really assist the user in performing the standing movement, and the function of the training effect is not enhanced when the arm is lowered. Users who need to increase the amount of training cannot meet their needs, and at the same time, the structure is complicated, and the intangible increases the manufacturing cost, so further improvement is necessary.

The reason is that this creator is in-depth discussion on the problems faced by the existing movements in the movement, and through years of experience in research and development and manufacturing of related industries, actively seeks solutions, and through continuous efforts in research and trials, finally succeeded. Developed a squat assist device to solve the inconvenience and trouble caused by the inability to provide damping.

Therefore, the main purpose of this creation is to provide a deep squatting device, so that the user can perform the standing movement with the correct force and posture to reach the lumbar vertebrae, lower back, lower abdomen, thighs and thighs and other related parts. The training effect of the muscles, bones and joints, and the movement of the arms and the chest can be further carried out due to the need to perform the internal pull action in both hands.

Moreover, the second main purpose of the present invention is to provide a squat auxiliary device which can generate a damping effect when the user squats to increase the amount of training, and can provide a support lifting effect when the user stands up. Reduce the user's load, avoid sports injuries, and make them willing to increase their exercise time to achieve the required amount of training.

In addition, another main object of the present invention is to provide a squat auxiliary device which can greatly simplify its structure and can be selectively folded to reduce the volume of transportation and storage, thereby effectively reducing the manufacturing cost thereof.

Based on this, the author mainly achieves the aforementioned purposes and functions through the following technical means, including: a main frame body having a horizontal section and an upright section, and the main frame body is erect The top end of the segment has an armrest for the user to hold; a top support unit is pivotally disposed on the main frame body, so that the top support unit can generate an arc swing movement relative to the main frame body, and the free end of the top support unit is provided with an abutting mechanism for the human body part or the back; An elastic unit is disposed between the main frame body and the top support unit, so that the top support unit can generate a pre-force for automatic upward resetting; a pedal group is disposed on the horizontal section of the main frame body and located at the handrail and Between the abutting mechanisms, and the pedal group is composed of two mats which are disposed on both sides of the horizontal section of the main frame body and can be attached to the ground; thereby, when the user steps on the pedals of the pedal group The main frame body can be stabilized on the ground, and when the user kneels down, the handrail can be pulled by both hands, and the supporting unit supporting the human body can use the elastic unit to generate the pre-force for the upward automatic reset, and can assist the user to balance.
