  • workout equipments which provide a constant resistance value against displacement, using metal weights and pulleys, so that the person works out by displacing (raising) the selected weight. These workout equipments provide only limited workout capabilities.
  • the said known workout equipments occupy large space, are heavy and have high cost. When springs are used, the force applied increases during displacement.
  • the device according to the invention aims at providing workout equipment, which provides a constant resistance force, has low weight and low cost.
  • the device according to the invention also aims at providing workout equipment which additionally, due to its low weight and low cost, is portable and suitable for personal use. Summary of the invention
  • the invention relates to a device for providing constant resistance values against displacement.
  • the device comprises a suitable mechanical arrangement consisting of a cylinder connected to a cone or a cam or a variable diameter pulley.
  • the mechanical arrangement couples and balances the preselected resistance value -increasing during displacement- of one or more resilient means (e.g. springs), at the one side (cylinder side) by the increasing torque generated by an externally applied constant force, and at the other side (cone or cam or variable diameter pulley side) by the suitable variation of the geometrical features which define the torque, including radii, distances, angles.
  • resilient means e.g. springs
  • Figure 1 shows a device with a mechanical arrangement for coupling and balances the torque of a spring according to the invention
  • Figure 2 shows a device according to claim 1 with a compression spring
  • Figure 3 shows a device according to claim 1 or 2 with a rotating spring
  • Figure 4 shows an alternative component of the mechanical arrangement for coupling and balancing the torque of a spring according to the invention.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of the device where the support frame (1 ), the shaft (2), the cylinder (3), the belt (4), the spring(s) with resistance against elongation (5), the belt (6), the cone (7), the end (8), the support points (9), the reducer (10), the resistance adjustor (11 ), the spring pretensioner (12), the engagement mechanism (13), the radius r of the cylinder (14), the radius Rx of the cone (15), the end stop (16), the available-length selector (17), the retention point (18) of the belt (4) and the retention point (19) of the belt (6) are shown.
  • Figure 2 shows a device similar to that of figure 1 , except that the spring (5) shows resistance against compression.
  • Figure 3 shows a device similar to that of figure 1 , except that the spring shows resistance against rotation.
  • Figure 4 shows a perspective view of an eccentric screw, which may replace the cone (7) of figures 1 , 2, 3. Also, the radius Rx (15), the hole (16) through which the shaft (2) passes, as well as the surface (17) on which the belt (6) is wound are shown. The initial radius Rx of the eccentric screw (14) is shown. Description of the invention
  • the said devices aim at achieving a constant resistance value during displacement of the end (8).
  • this is achieved by the cone (7) or the eccentric screw of figure 4, which must execute a common rotational motion with the cylinder (3).
  • the end (8) cannot be moved/wound in respect to the cone (7).
  • we can select the desired resistance f via the spring either by selecting the suitable spring, or by adjusting its active length via the resistance adjustor (1 1 ), or by adjusting its pretention by the spring pretehsioner (12).
  • the shaft (2) may be stationary and not rotating and have turns as well as the system cylinder (3)
  • cone (7) may have turns at the points coming in contact with the shaft (2), so that during their rotation they displace parallel to the shaft.
  • the end (8) will always come out from the same point of the device, without following its longitudinal displacement to the cone (7), since this is eliminated by the opposite displacement of the system cylinder (3), cone (7).
  • Figure 4 shows an eccentric screw which may replace the cone (7) since at each subsequent point of its periphery (17) and starting from the point with the smallest radius Rx (14), its radius (15) is larger than that at the previous point.
  • the increase in its radius from its shaft (2) ensures a respective increase in its torque, which will balance the increase in the torque on the cylinder (3) by the increasing variation in the length of the individual spring (5).
  • certain components may be collapsible so that the device occupies smaller space.
  • two or more ends (8) may be present, or more than one device may be incorporated or combined by their common components.
  • the springs may be more than one, or may be different between them and these may be removed or inserted at will by an engagement mechanism (13) or similar mechanism of a respective effect.
  • their active length may be adjusted by a resistance adjustor (1 1 ) or other component of similar effect, which essentially determines a new fixation point and thus how much of the total available length of the spring will be active and will accept tension and which may operate in total with a similar adjustment for all the springs or may have a separate adjustment for each spring.
  • the pretension of the springs altogether or separately may be adjusted by a spring pretensioner (12) or similar, thereby achieving a wide range of force combination.
  • the cone (7) may comprise a spiral guide groove on its surface so that the winding/unwinding of the belt is suitably guided.
  • the cone (7) may be replaced by a pulley-cylinder which will have a mechanism for increasing its diameter so that the torques are always balanced.
  • the springs (5) may be made of any material or even instead of springs, a resilient material may be used, and the belts may be made of rope, wire rope or any other material as required.
  • pulleys may be interposed at any point of the structures to change the direction of the belts used.
  • Portable workout equipment consists of a device according to figure 1 , which is arranged within a metal casing of dimensions 20cmx20cmx30cm (HxWxL).
  • a hole is provided, through which the belt (of adjustable length up to 2 m) passes, which ends to a handle.
  • the belt of adjustable length up to 2 m
  • two collapsible wings articulated at the lower side ends of the lower side of the casing are provided, which in the closed position are folded on the lower side of the casing.
  • the suspension to the wall or the fixation on the floor is not necessary when the user simply presses with his feet on the two open wings, which extend to the left and to the right of the casing by a length slightly smaller than the length of the casing of the device.
  • the device provides optimal workout for the muscles of the whole body, providing an adjustable resistance force in the vertical direction.
  • the suitable exercises are widely known and applied in modern gyms.
  • the increasing resistance of the spring (5) and thus the increasing torque applied on the system cone (7) and cylinder (3) will be continuously balanced by the respectively increasing torque applied by the cone (7) due to the transition of the belt (6) pulled by the end (8), to a cone cross- section with increased radius Rx and maintaining the preselected force f constant.
  • the weight of the device does not exceed 5 kg, thus the device is portable.

Abstract

L'invention se rapporte à un dispositif permettant de fournir des valeurs de résistance constante contre un déplacement. Le dispositif comprend un agencement mécanique approprié qui se compose d'un cylindre raccordé à un cône ou à une came ou à une poulie de diamètre variable. Le dispositif mécanique couple et équilibre la valeur de résistance présélectionnée - une variable pendant un déplacement - d'un ou plusieurs moyens élastiques (par exemple, des ressorts) sur un premier côté (le côté cylindre) par le couple variable généré par une force constante appliquée par l'extérieur, sur l'autre côté (côté cône ou came ou poulie de diamètre variable) par la variation appropriée des éléments géométriques qui définissent le couple y compris les rayons, les distances, les angles. Le dispositif convient particulièrement pour un équipement d'entraînement physique ainsi que dans toute application industrielle qui nécessite la fourniture de valeurs de résistance constante contre un déplacement.
