Definitions

  • the invention relates to a balance training device.
  • slacken or slacklining mean a sport in which one balances on a hose band or webbing (slackline), which is stretched between two fastening points. It is similar to tightrope dancing. In contrast to balancing on the dance rope or the high wire, in which the rope is so taut that it hardly moves, a slackline stretches under the weight of the slackliner. This requires a constant active balancing of the proper movement of the slackline by the balancing slackliner. The balance point of the slackliner is thus very low compared to the attachment points of the slackline.
  • the slackline is usually a flat band with a width of 25 to 50 mm.
  • the slacklines can have a length of 30 meters or more.
  • a slackline is at two spaced points, z. B. attached to trees or rock-mounted bolts, via, for example, screw karabiner or shackle.
  • a pulley or a Spanngurtratsche can be used to tension the slackline.
  • the slackline stretches so that it moves comparatively strong and requires the balancer to actively balance its own motion.
  • the balance point of the balancer is comparatively low compared to the attachment points of the slackline.
  • a disadvantage of a slackline is that suitable attachment points must be found that can safely absorb the forces acting on the slackline when balancing forces. For example, if a shackle breaks away from the point of attachment, under some circumstances it may accelerate like a bullet in the direction of the balancer due to the tensile forces acting on the belt and injure it. If trees are used as attachment points, their bark is expensive to protect against injury.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a balance training device which essentially has the function of a slackline, but the disadvantages mentioned avoids. This object is achieved with a balance training device having the features of claim 1.
  • a resilient rod is such versta NEN, which is suitable to carry a person and behave elastically under the weight of the balancing, similar to a slackline.
  • the rod should be such that it is deflected significantly under the weight of the balancing in the middle between the support points, wherein the elastic rod substantially similar or equally not only in the vertical, but also in various other directions transverse to its longitudinal axis is elastic.
  • the deflection of the rod from its rest position by the load of the balancing should preferably be at least 10 or 15 cm in the middle between the bearing blocks and may be limited by the distance of the elastic rod to the ground.
  • the elastic rod and preload bending moment should be such that the deflection of the rod is between 10 cm and 50 cm due to the weight of the balancer and its movement, particularly in a middle region of the rod between the pedestals.
  • Under bearing blocks are understood to be those that are suitable to safely absorb the forces acting on the elastic rod and hold the rod safely.
  • the connection between the bearing blocks and the rod can be made both by traction and by positive engagement.
  • Means for applying a bias voltage are in particular understood to be those which apply an additional bending moment to the rod in order to influence the elastic properties of the rod and in particular to be able to vary or adjust to the weight of the balancing member by setting different bias voltages.
  • the balance training device has significant advantages over a slackline. It can be used wherever there is sufficient space available to set up the device, regardless of the presence of natural attachment points in the environment. Since it is a stand-alone device and does not require any existing attachment points in the environment, the risk that the attachment point will not withstand occurring loads or damage is not given. Rather, the device can be designed from the outset so that it safely absorbs the forces applied by a balancing person in any case. Even if the attachment of the elastic There is no risk that it will accelerate like a bullet in the direction of the balancing, so that in case of failure of the attachment there is no immediate danger to the balancing.
  • the handling of the balance training device according to the invention is very simple, and due to the means for applying a bending moment, the bias and thus the elastic properties of the rod can be varied almost infinitely.
  • the elastic rod is fixedly connected to both bearing blocks, so that the distance of the bearing blocks to each other is defined essentially by the rod.
  • the bearing blocks are connected via adjustable in length means, in particular via a pull rope, so that by the applied by the means or the pull rope train a bias on the elastic rod can be applied to influence the elastic properties of the rod , In this case, the distance between the feet of the bearing blocks to each other is not fixed, and the bearing blocks are not anchored in the ground.
