Description

Stretching mat

This creation is related to fitness equipment; specifically, a pad that can provide support to the human body.

It is known that maintaining the same posture or incorrect posture for a long time can easily cause muscles to tighten and pull bones to move to incorrect positions, thereby causing human body pain; for example, sitting and working in incorrect postures for a long time , it is easy for the back to bear excessive and inappropriate pressure in the long run, thereby causing back pain.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the user generally places a stretching mat, for example, under the back to assist the user in stretching and stretching the back muscles when lying down, thereby achieving the effect of releasing the pressure on the back muscles; however, most conventional stretching mats are an arched structure, and when the user needs a higher intensity stretching, the conventional stretching mat cannot meet the user's needs. Therefore, conventional stretching mats still need to be improved.

In view of this, the purpose of this invention is to provide a stretching pad that can provide users with higher stretching strength.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides a stretching pad comprising a main body and a pad body, the top of the main body comprising a vault portion and a supporting portion connected to each other, the bottom of the main body being provided for being arranged on a setting surface and in contact with the setting surface, and a reference surface is defined passing through the bottom of the main body; the pad body is arranged on the vault portion, and in a longitudinal direction, the distance from the upper surface of the pad body to the reference surface is greater than the distance from the supporting portion to the reference surface.

In one embodiment, the main body and the pad are integrally formed.

In one embodiment, the pad is detachably coupled to the body.

In one embodiment, the stretch pad includes two Velcro straps, one of which is disposed at the bottom of the pad body, and the other of which is disposed at the dome portion of the main body, and the pad body and the main body are detachably coupled via the two Velcro straps.

In one embodiment, the bottom of the pad has a groove, and one of the two Velcro straps is disposed in the groove.

In one embodiment, the groove depth of the groove is greater than the thickness of the hook and loop fastener disposed in the groove and less than the total thickness of the two hook and loop fasteners.

In one embodiment, the dome portion of the main body has an embedding groove, and the bottom portion of the pad is embedded in the embedding groove.

In one embodiment, the bottom of the body has a plurality of recesses.

In one embodiment, the main body has two side surfaces arranged opposite to each other in a first transverse direction, each of the recesses extends along the first transverse direction, and two end openings of each of the recesses are correspondingly arranged on the two side surfaces.

In one embodiment, a second transverse direction is defined, and the recesses are arranged at intervals along the second transverse direction.

The effect of this invention is that, through the design of the pad being arranged on the arch portion, the pad can protrude from the surface of the supporting portion, whereby, in addition to being able to lean the body against the stretching pad for stretching, the user can further lean the body part that needs to be strengthened against the pad to increase the body bending angle and thereby enhance the stretching strength.

In order to more clearly explain the invention, a preferred embodiment is given and described in detail with drawings. Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, which are a stretching pad 1 of a first preferred embodiment of the invention, comprising a body 10 and a pad 20, the top of the body 10 comprising a vault portion 10a and a supporting portion 10b connected to each other, the bottom of the body 10 is provided on a setting surface and in contact with the setting surface, the vault portion 10a is arc-shaped to match the curvature of the user's back or legs, and the supporting portion 10b is flat and tilted to facilitate supporting the user's back or legs.

Thus, when the user places the stretching mat 1 on a setting surface such as a floor, the bottom of the main body 10 contacts the floor, and the user's back, legs, and other body parts can be placed on the top of the main body 10. Through the top support of the arched top portion 10a, the user can bend the back, legs, and other body parts to achieve the effect of stretching and relaxing the muscles.

As shown in FIG. 2 , a reference surface S is defined passing through the bottom of the main body 10; the pad 20 is disposed on the arch portion 10a, the main body 10 and the pad 20 are integrally formed, and in a longitudinal direction Y, the distance D1 from the upper surface of the pad 20 to the reference surface S is greater than the distance D2 from the supporting portion 10b to the reference surface S, that is, the pad 20 can protrude from the surface of the supporting portion 10b, thereby, in addition to being able to lean the body against the top of the stretching pad 1 for stretching, the user can further lean the body part that needs to be strengthened against the pad 20 to increase the body bending angle, thereby improving the stretching strength.

It is further explained that, as shown in FIG. 1 , a first transverse direction X1 and a second transverse direction X2 are defined. In the present embodiment, the first transverse direction X1 and the second transverse direction X2 are arranged perpendicular to each other as an example for explanation. In practice, it is not excluded that the first transverse direction X1 and the second transverse direction X2 are not arranged perpendicular to each other.

The bottom of the main body 10 has a plurality of recesses 101, and the main body 10 has two side surfaces 102 arranged opposite to each other in the first transverse direction X1. Each recess 101 extends along the first transverse direction X1, and two end openings 101a of each recess 101 are correspondingly arranged on the two side surfaces 102, and the recesses 101 are arranged at intervals along the second transverse direction X2. Thus, when the user leans his body against the stretching pad 1, through the design of the recesses 101, the stretching pad 1 can produce a slight deformation in accordance with the force applied by the user to provide a buffering effect to prevent the user's body from colliding with the stretching pad 1 and causing discomfort.

Please refer to Figures 3 to 5 for a stretching pad 2 of a second preferred embodiment of the present invention. The stretching pad 2 has a substantially similar structure to the stretching pad 1 of the first preferred embodiment, except that the body 10 and the pad 20 of the stretching pad 1 of the first preferred embodiment are integrally formed; in this embodiment, the pad 20 is detachably coupled to the body 10. The stretching pad 2 further comprises two Velcro straps 30 as shown in Figures 4 and 5. The two Velcro straps 30 The two hook and loop fasteners 30 are respectively a fleece-surface Velcro and a hook-surface Velcro. One of the two Velcros 30 is disposed at the bottom of the pad 20, and the other of the two Velcros 30 is disposed at the dome portion 10a of the main body 10. In this way, the pad 20 and the main body 10 can be detachably combined through the two Velcros 30. The user can choose to combine or detach the pad 20 from the main body 10 according to the stretching strength required by the body, thereby providing the user with a stretch pad with different stretching strengths.

To further explain, as shown in FIG. 5 , the pad 20 has a groove 201 at the bottom, and one of the two Velcro tapes 30 is disposed in the groove 201. The depth of the groove 201 is greater than the thickness of the Velcro tape 30 disposed in the groove 201 and less than the total thickness of the two Velcro tapes 30. In this way, when the two Velcro tapes 30 are bonded together, the Velcro tape 30 disposed on the dome portion 10a of the main body 10 can also be at least partially accommodated in the groove 201.

Please refer to Figures 6 and 7 for a stretching pad 3 of a third preferred embodiment of the present invention. The stretching pad 3 has a substantially similar structure to the stretching pad 1 of the first preferred embodiment, except that the body and the pad 20 of the stretching pad 1 of the first preferred embodiment are integrally formed; in the present embodiment, the pad 20 is detachably coupled to the body 10. , and the arched top portion 10a of the main body 10 has an embedding groove 103, and the bottom portion of the pad 20 is embedded in the embedding groove 103. In this way, the pad 20 and the main body 10 can be combined in a detachable manner. The user can choose to combine or detach the pad 20 with the main body 10 according to the stretching strength required by the body, thereby providing the user with a stretching pad with different stretching strengths.

In summary, through the design of the present invention in which the pad 20 is disposed on the arch portion 10a, the pad 20 can protrude from the surface of the supporting portion 10b. Thus, in addition to being able to lean the body against the stretching pad 1 for stretching, the user can further lean the body part that needs to be strengthened against the pad 20 to increase the body bending angle and thereby enhance the stretching strength.

The above is only the best feasible embodiment of the present invention. Any equivalent changes made by applying the description of the present invention and the scope of patent application should be included in the patent scope of the present invention.
