An apparatus of this type is'suited not only for physiotherapy and gymnastics but particularly also for Yoga exercises.
From German Pat. No. 2,004,932 there is known a device for treating thespine, in which a forwardly cantilevered arm is mounted on a frame, the arm carrying at its free end a pivotal traverse with supports for the bends of the knees. With the known device it is possible to dispose the patient in a position with his head down whereby the knees are strapped to pans in order rigidly to support the patient. This known device is limited to such suspended position of the body and is thus limited in its application.
The present invention contemplates providing a gymnastic apparatus which allows not only the performance of the inverted head position which is particularly suitedfor Yoga exercises but which can be used also. for exercises by which an active cooperation of the body andits muscular system is to be achieved.
Preferred embodiments of this invention include a gymnastic apparatus of the type mentioned above which comprises two substantially horizontally extending bars each being provided with a shoulder support, an upright frame connected to the bars and having a supportfor the bends of the knees disposed at its upper end, and a cantilever connected to the frame and having a support for engagement by the feet. With such apparatus, the inverted head position may be assumed by a shoulder stand on the lower shoulder supports whereby the legs of the person are either held freely upright or may be leaned to the support for the bends of the knees. In this position, the persons bodys weight is fully supported by the shoulders while simultaneously a pressure reliefis achieved in the zone of the neck vertebrae. On the other hand, the inverted head position may also be assumed with the'apparatus according to the invention in that the legs are bent over the support for the bendof the knees with the feet engaging from behind the support mounted on the cantilever. In this position, the body is suspended from the legs, and a tension is exerted on the entire spine. Both positions may advantageously be assumed alternatingly and transiently. The apparatus according to the invention furthermore permits exercises for strengthening the abdomen, particularly the ventral muscular system.
In advantageous preferred embodiments of the invention, the various supports are adjustable as to their mutual distances so that the apparatus can be exactly adapted to every size and structure of the body of persons using same.
The above discussed and further features, objects, and advantages of the present invention will become more obvious from the following description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, which show, for purposes of illustration only, several embodiments in accordance with the present invention.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective side view which shows a gymnastic apparatus according to a first embodiment of the invention with a single upright frame at the end of the horizontal bars;
FIG. 2 is a perspective side view which shows a gymnastic apparatus according to a second embodiment of the invention which is similar to the apparatus of FIG. I but more stable than the latter and has two upright frames disposed at respective opposite ends of the horizontal bars;
FIG. 3 is a perspective view which shows another emeither of the FIG.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS According to FIG. 1, the apparatus consists of a substantially horizontal base frame 1 and an upright frame 2 connected thereto. The base frame comprises two nearly horizontally extending bars 3 which are bent down at their front ends and are connected at their front lower ends to a traverse 4. The traverse 4 is again bent down at its front or side ends and provided with feet 5 to prevent skidding when in use with the feet 5- engaged with a gym floor or other support.
The upright frame 2 comprises two parallel rods 6 welded to the bars 3; the welds being preferably reinforced by triangular plates 7 welded thereto. The two rods 6 are in their upper zone connected to each other by one or two traverses 8. At their lower ends, the rods 6 are also provided with feet 5 for preventing skidding.
The upright frame 2 is inclined with respect to'the horizontal bars 3 at an angle of about so that the rods 6 are inclined upwardly towards the bars 3.
A shoulder support 9 is provided on each of the two horizontally extending bars 3. The upper ends of the upright rods 6 carry support 10 for supporting the bends of knees of a person using the apparatus. A cantilever 11 is mounted on an upper traverse 8 at an angle of about 45 with respect to the horizontal; the cantilever I'll carrying, at its free end approximately on. the vertical level of the support 10, a further support 12 formed like a both-sided handle for engagement by the feet.
The shoulder supports 9 are mounted on the bars 3 for adjustment as to their mutual distance from one another and as to their distance from the upright rods 6;. The adjustment may be achieved by adjusting screws 13 each extending through a longitudinal slot (not shown) in the bar 3 and a transverse slot provided in a lower plate (not shown) of the support 9.
The rods 6 are telescopically extensible in a middle zone and can be fixed in their respective position by clamps 14. The cantilever 1 l is passed through a sleeve or tube 15 welded to the respective traverse 8 and can be shifted within this sleeve and fixed in its respective position by a tubular clamp 16.
The bars 3, the rods 6, the traverses 4 and 8 and the cantilever ll consist of steel tube having a suitable diameter selected in the range of 20 to 40 mm in accordance with the material used and the exerted or expected loads. The supports 9 and 10 are upholstered in a suitable manner such as by a foam rubber pad coated with a sheet of plastics material. The support 12 con-- sists of a steel tube welded to the free end of the cantilever 11- and having sleeves of rubber or plastics fitted and fastened to it. The feet 5 are elements suitably formed from rubber or plastics material and fitted onto or inserted into the tube ends. 7
In a typical embodiment, the width of the traverses 8 is about 350 mm, the length of the bars 3 about 1,000 mm, the height of thebars 3 above the feet 5 about 4-20 mm, the fully extended length of the upright rods 6 about 1,500 mm and the mean distance of the supports 9 from the upright rods 6 about 300 mm.
The apparatus is intended to be used for the following four basic positions: y
l. Shoulder stand on the supports 9 with the person s hands gripping the bars 3-in' front of the supports 9 and the peronss legs being either held freely or leaned against the support 10. Due to the inclination of the upright. frame 2 with respect to the base frame 1, the patients back does not contact the upright frame 2. In this position, the bodys weight is fully supported by the shoulders so that a pressure reliefv is achieved in the area of theneck vertebrae.
2. Knee hang from the support 10 with the feet engaging the support 12 from below. With the length of the upright rods 6 properly adjusted, the shoulders lie in this position no longer on the supports 9 so that the entire bodys weight is freely suspended. In this position the entire spine is released. I
3. Knee hang with the supper part of the body horizontal and the arms extending upwardly. In this position, the lower legs engage the supports 10 and 12 like in position (2) so that the entire bodys weight is suspended from the legs.
4. Knee hang with the upper part of the body bent upwardly, the arms extending forwardly and the hands reaching to the tips of the feet. This position is assumed by further bending the upper part of the body upwardly a for relief, the positions 3) and (4) are mainly exercises for strengthening the abdomen and the ventral muscular system.
The embodiment of the gymnastic apparatus'shown in FIG. 2 comprises substantially the same elements as the apparatus of FIG. 1; and many of the corresponding individual elements in FIG. 2 have therefore not again been provided with reference numbers. In addition to the apparatus of FIG. 1, the embodiment of FIG. 2 includes a second upright frame which is mounted opposite to the frame 2 at the other ends of the horizontal bars designated in FIG. 2 by 3. The two upright frames 2 and 20 are connected by two further horizontal bars 21 at a vertical level of about 100 mm above the floor.
An essentially more stable apparatus is thus achieved inFIG. 2as compared to FIG/1 wherein the reinforcing triangles at the connections of the upright frames with the horizontal bars may optionally be omitted. Upright frame 6' of FIG. 2 includes a further reinforcing traverse 8' adjacent the connection to the bars 21. For further increasing the stability, the two upright frames "Zand 20 are each upwardly inclined towards each other. The horizontal bars 21 not only serve to reinforce the structure but may also be used for further exercises and body positions such as whatever exercise can be done on conventional parallel bars.
FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of a cantilever 11' which can be used in place of cantilever 11 on the FIG. 1 and 2 embodiments. The cantilever 1] carrier a foot support 12' formed as a roll of foam material which may be coated by a sheet of plastics material. A bottom support 25 is mounted on the end of the cantilever 11' and is formed as a traverse provided with rubber feet 26 at both ends. The distance between the support 12 and the bottom support 25 corresponds at least to the inset of the 'foot so that the support 12 can be engaged by the feet from behind with the bottom support feet 26 engaged on a floor or other support.
When the cantilever 11 of the apparatusshown in FIG. 1 is withdrawn from the sleeve 15 and replaced by the cantilever 11' according to FIG. 3, the thus obtained apparatus may also be used in a position in which it rests on both feet 26 of the bottom support 25 and on the feet 5 mounted on the ends of the rods 6. In this position, the bars 3 are slopedupwardly. The patient can now perform the exercises such that, in a starting position {referred to hereinafter as position (5)], he lies with his backon the frame 2 (frame 2 now extending horizontally). For greater comfort, a back cushion may. be provided in a manner similar to cushion 30 in the embodiment of FIG. 4 and which is for instance suspended from the lower traverse 8 shown in FIG. 1 and rests on the rods 6 (see FIG. 5).
FIG. 4 shows a further embodiment of the apparatus adapted for exercises from the last mentioned'position (5 The apparatus of FIG. 4 comprises the upper portion of the upright frame 2 of FIG. 1 including the support 10 for the bends of the knees, and the upper telescoping portion of the rods 6. The cantilever 11' according to FIG. 3 is utilized in place of cantilever 11. The lower portion of the apparatus shown in FIG. 1 which includes the base frame 1 and the lower portion of the rods 6 is removed and a further bottom support 27 is detachably fitted onto the lower end of the upper telescoping rod portions 6. The bottom frame 27 consists of two substantially horizontally extending (when apparatus is tilted to engage feet 26 with floor) rods 28 with their ends bent downwardly as well as a traverse 29 connecting the bent-down ends of the rods 28. Rubber feet 26 are provided at both lateral ends of the traverse 29 similarly to feet 26 at the ends of the bottom support 25 of FIG. 3. In order to fasten the bottom support 27 to the upper portion of the apparatus according to FIG. 4, clamps 14' which correspond to the clamps 14 of FIG. 1 are provided at the upper ends of the rods 28.
