Abstract

The present invention relates to a therapeutic and sports gymnastics device for the entire human musculoskeletal system.

Description

The present invention relates to a therapeutic and sports gymnastics device for the entire human musculoskeletal system, which enables exercises that counteract the often monotonous everyday stress direction. With the help of these exercises, which are derived from the yoga teachings, atrophy is counteracted, especially in the extreme stretching and stretching areas.

Some approaches to alleviating painful ailments are known from the prior art, especially for back problems. The only example is the DE 10328041 B3 , the DE 2253767 A and the DE 2617851 A1 referenced.

However, these approaches are based on the attempt to use technical equipment to artificially stretch the intervertebral disc area in order to alleviate predominantly existing damage and this mostly only for a short time, as history shows. Figuratively speaking, it is still a matter of the so-called "stretch bench" or, for example, a chair back attachment for the forearms, in order to stretch the entire spine and intervertebral discs via the arms in a hanging position.

According to today's understanding, radical relief of the problem areas in painful conditions cannot lead to permanent recovery, rather it would represent the beginning of a downward spiral, which, due to the relief, leads to muscle breakdown, which leads to an accumulation of pain symptoms and the number which leads to questionable applications.

Furthermore, specific back exercises have also been known for a number of years, which are used as a preventative measure to stretch certain back areas and compensate for poor posture. The aim of these exercises is to enable different directions of movement of the body, especially in the end areas of individual mobility, with device support. The exercises as such and thus also the therapeutic approach have mainly become known in the fitness center environment over the past ten years. The acceptance and the positive response continue to this day.

A number of devices are known for performing these exercises, since the majority of people are often no longer capable of performing these exercises without aids. Again, an example is the DE 20 2010 010 745 U1 and the DE 20 2010 010 934 U1 referenced. These devices are usually part of a device circuit of a total of nine devices, which enable the user to carry out nine different exercises.

However, such large-scale circles can at best be set up in a fitness center or a rehab facility and are completely unsuitable for private use. There have also been attempts to perform several of these exercises on a single device, for example the so-called “fle-xx All in One” from GymWood. However, not all nine common exercises can be adequately performed with this device.

It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an improved combination gymnastics device which enables the user to perform the aforementioned nine exercises on a single device. It is also an object of the present invention to make this device as compact as possible.

This object is achieved with the gymnastics device according to claim 1. Preferred embodiments of the gymnastics device according to the invention are claimed in the dependent claims.

Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a gymnastics device with a, preferably padded, base plate, a unit arranged above the base plate and movable parallel to the base plate with at least one, preferably padded, surface, a frame mounted above the base plate with several extending parallel to the base plate Struts or rungs and a preferably padded, height-adjustable roller mounted above the base plate, which, viewed in the longitudinal direction of the base plate, is arranged between the movable unit and the frame.

The base plate does not have to extend over the entire base area of the device. Rather, the base plate can also have one or more recesses. Furthermore, a frame can be provided which carries the base plate and on which the other components of the device are mounted. Accordingly, the unit arranged above the base plate and movable parallel to the base plate can, under certain circumstances, also be movable beyond an edge of the base plate. Furthermore, the frame mounted above the base plate can also protrude in the longitudinal direction beyond the base plate.

The individual elements of this gymnastics device according to the invention can be mounted on a relatively small base area (for example an area of less than 3 m ² ), so that the gymnastics device according to the invention can also be used in the private area can be placed. The individual elements of the claimed gymnastics device and their arrangement relative to one another allow a large number of sports or therapeutic gymnastics exercises to be carried out, as they can otherwise only be carried out in a relatively complex circuit training. The individual components of the claimed gymnastics device are also present in the above-mentioned device from GymWood. However, for some exercises, as will be explained below, it is crucial that the height-adjustable castor is arranged between the movable unit and the frame, as seen in the longitudinal direction of the padded base plate, and not, as in the case of the device known from the prior art, at one longitudinal end of the gymnastics device.

The padded base plate does not have to be cushioned over the entire surface. Rather, pads can also be applied to one or more relevant points. The same applies to the padded surface of the movable unit.

The padded roll is preferably connected directly or indirectly to the base plate via two lateral supports, which preferably extend perpendicularly to the base plate, that is to say in the vertical when the gymnastics device is set up regularly. The two lateral supports preferably have a height of at least 1 m. The roller is preferably mounted displaceably on the lateral supports, preferably via mechanical sliding guides, the roller preferably extending between the two lateral supports. The role can, however, also be slidably mounted and lockable on only one of the two lateral supports, preferably in an upper area, and the second support can serve to place the role in a lower area, where a much higher weight load occurs due to the exercises taking place there , to be additionally supported on the second side and to be locked there as well. In this case, the upper end of the lower support is preferably designed so that the axis of the roller can be threaded into the mechanical sliding guide in a simple manner, preferably without tools, when the roller is moved downwards from the upper area. Another possibility is to leave the so-called sliding carriage at the upper end of the lower girder in order to carry out the exercises on one side with the roller in the upper area, only when the lower area is reached the second side is supported and closed / connected to the sliding carriage .

The lateral supports preferably have different heights, the height of a support being at least 1.60 m, preferably at least 1.80 m and particularly preferably at least 2.0 m. The roller is preferably mounted displaceably on the higher of the lateral supports in such a way that the roller can also be displaced along the higher support beyond the maximum height of the lower of the lateral supports and locked at different heights. The roller is preferably adjustable in height over a height range (measured from the top of the base plate to the longitudinal axis of the roller) of at least 50 cm to 150 cm, more preferably from at least 30 cm to 170 cm and particularly preferably from at least 10 cm to 190 cm different heights of this area can be locked.

One or more grip elements are preferably provided on one or both of the lateral supports. Preferably, several, for example at least two or at least three, grip elements are attached to the lateral supports at different heights.

It is also preferred that an upper stop surface is provided on at least one of the lateral supports, which extends perpendicular to the padded base plate and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the roller, the upper stop surface preferably having a surface of at least 1 m ² , more preferably of at least 1 , 2 m ² and particularly preferably of at least 1.4 m ² . The maximum dimension of the stop surface along a direction parallel to the padded base plate is preferably at least 1 m, more preferably at least 1.5 m and particularly preferably at least 2.0 m.

The stop surface is preferably mounted on the upper end of the higher of the two lateral supports. The upper end of the stop surface, measured from the top of the base plate, preferably has a height of at least 1.8 m, more preferably of at least 2.0 m and particularly preferably of at least 2.2 m. According to a preferred embodiment, the stop surface is adjustable in height mounted on one of the side supports.

The stop surface preferably has a recess along which the roller can be displaced via the lateral support into the region of the stop surface.

It is further preferred that a preferably padded stop is provided which extends from that side edge of the gymnastics device on which the stop surface is arranged in the direction of the center line of the padded base plate. The stop is preferably arranged offset from the longitudinal axis of the roller, viewed in the longitudinal direction of the padded base plate, preferably between the longitudinal axis of the roller and the frame. The offset (measured between the longitudinal axis of the stop and the longitudinal axis) is preferably between 10 cm and 50 cm, more preferably between 15 cm and 45 cm and particularly preferably between 20 cm and 40 cm. The padded stop can preferably be displaced parallel to the longitudinal direction of the padded base plate and locked in different longitudinal positions, preferably continuously. The longitudinal axis of the stop, measured from the surface of the base plate, is preferably arranged at a height of at least 10 cm and at most 30 cm.

Furthermore, two side walls are preferably provided which extend upwards at the side edges of the padded base plate or the gymnastics device, preferably perpendicular to the padded base plate, and run perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the roll. One or more grip elements are preferably provided on one or both of the side walls. The side walls preferably extend on both sides to the side supports. It is further preferred that each of the sub-elements of the side walls (on the two sides of the side support) has at least two, more preferably at least three grip elements. These grip elements are preferably provided at different heights.

The struts or rungs of the frame together preferably define a convex bearing surface which points in the direction of the roller.

The frame can preferably be dismantled without tools. Particularly preferably, the frame can be accommodated displaceably in guides in the side walls, particularly preferably at different positions and / or heights.

The movable unit can preferably be fixed in different positions, preferably continuously. It is preferred that the displaceable unit can be displaced over a distance of at least 80 cm, more preferably of at least 100 cm and particularly preferably of at least 120 cm.

The movable unit preferably has a stop roller and / or a strut-shaped projection. Between the stop roller and the strut-shaped projection, a cushion is preferably provided, which preferably has a surface of at least 1,000 cm ² , more preferably of at least 1,200 cm ² .

The maximum projected length of the gymnastics device, measured in the longitudinal direction of the base plate, is preferably at most 3.2 m, more preferably at most 3.0 m and particularly preferably at most 2.8 m.

The device according to the invention enables the user to carry out postures and stretching movements which, due to the basic posture that is often one-sided and forward-looking in everyday life, do not occur naturally enough or not at all, and thus counteract the one-sided strain or the stunted musculoskeletal system.

Due to the activity taking place despite the support of the device, muscle build-up takes place in the area of the spine, but the concept of muscle shortening also has a very positive effect on the fascia network, including the mobility of the joints.

In 10 a gymnastics device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown in a perspective view obliquely from the front. The gymnastics device has a base plate 1 , one above the base plate 1 arranged unit that can be moved parallel to the base plate 3 with at least one padded surface 24 , one above the base plate 1 assembled frame 10 with several parallel to the base plate 1 extending struts or rungs 15th and one above the base plate 1 Height-adjustable, preferably padded, castor 11 on, in the longitudinal direction of the base plate 1 seen between the movable unit 3 and the frame 10 is arranged.

The gymnastics device has a padded knee plate at one longitudinal end 2 on, which extends over substantially the entire width of the gymnastics device.

In the preferred embodiment shown, the base plate extends 1 only over part of the total length of the device so that between the base plate 1 and the knee plate 2 a recess is arranged above which the movable unit 3 can be moved back and forth. In an alternative embodiment, the base plate could 1 but also up to the knee plate 2 extend so that these together form a padded base plate 1 form which extends over substantially the entire length of the device.

The base plate 1 is mounted in the illustrated embodiment in a frame on which the other components of the device are also attached.

The padded role 11 is about two perpendicular to the base plate 1 extending side beams 4th and 6th with the base plate 1 or connected to the frame that carries the base plate, the padded role 11 via mechanical sliding guides 5 slidable on the side straps 4th and 6th is stored. On both side straps 4th and 6th are in the illustrated preferred embodiment three handle elements 23 provided, which are each arranged at different heights.

It is also on the side support 4th an upper stop surface 12th mounted that is perpendicular to the base plate 1 and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the padded roll 11 extends. In the preferred embodiment shown, this has a stop surface 12th a curved shape made up of two overlapping ellipses. Of course, however, the stop surface can also have a different shape and, for example, be rectangular or wing-shaped. However, it is preferred that the maximum dimension of the stop surface 12th along a direction parallel to the base plate 1 is at least 1 m, more preferably at least 1.5 m and particularly preferably at least 2 m, in order to offer the user enough space to lean on.

A padded stop is used when leaning against it 9 of stabilization. This stop is located on the side of the gymnastics device on which the stop surface is also arranged and extends from the side edge in the direction of the center line of the base plate 1 , as in 10 you can see. Here is the padded stop 9 preferably offset to the longitudinal axis of the roller 11 arranged as this in 10 is shown, and can preferably be moved parallel to the longitudinal direction of the base plate and locked in different longitudinal positions.

The padded role 11 can preferably be done by means of mechanical adjustment units 7th attached to the side straps 4th and 6th are provided in lock at different heights. Will the role 11 over the top of the lower beam 6th moved upwards, this is only on one side via a mechanical sliding guide 5 slidable on the higher side support 4th stored. This is sufficient insofar as in the exercises in which the roller is locked very high up, the force acting on the roller is very much smaller than in the exercises with the roller close to the ground.

Also the movable unit 3 can preferably be fixed in different longitudinal positions, preferably steplessly. The movable unit 3 preferably has a stop roller 13th and / or a strut-shaped projection 8th on. Between the stop roller 13th and the strut-shaped projection 8th can the upholstery 24 be provided.

Furthermore, according to the preferred embodiment, the gymnastics device has two side walls 14th on the side edges of the base plate 1 or the device perpendicular to the base plate 1 extend upward and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the roller 11 run away. In the preferred embodiment shown, there are sub-elements of the side walls 14th each on both sides of the carrier 4th and 6th arranged and attached to the frame that holds the base plate 1 wearing. Furthermore, the side walls are in each partial wall 14th three handle elements 23 intended.

The frame 10 can preferably be dismantled without tools and is in the dismantled state in 11 to see. The frame can preferably be made by means of guide webs 16 in grooves 18th the side walls 14th can be shifted. For this, as in 12th indicated, two or more grooves with different lengths and / or at different lateral positions can be provided around the frame 10 to be mounted at different heights or in different lateral positions. For easier insertion of the guide bars 16 are enlarged openings in the entrance area 19th of the grooves 18th intended. Alternatively, grooves could also be used 18th be provided at a different angle.

As also in the perspective view of the gymnastics device according to the preferred embodiment obliquely from behind in FIG 12th can be seen a stabilizing plate 20th be provided that the stop surface 12th for example, stabilized against twisting in the event of high loads Stabilization struts can also be used 21st to stabilize the side walls 14th be provided.

As can be seen from the above brief description of these nine exercises and the 1a to 9b results, the aim of the combination device described here is to allow the exercises previously established on individual devices to exist without changes, but to make them accessible to a broader market and other clientele by means of the space-saving combination device. In other words, what has hitherto been offered in circuit training with nine or ten different individual devices on a large area, is to be reduced to well below ten percent of the space requirement with the help of the present invention and thus open up new application possibilities.

Such a combination device with which all the exercises described above could be adequately performed is not known from the prior art. Even with the device from GymWood mentioned at the beginning, some of these exercises can be performed sensibly. With this device, because of the central arrangement of the movable slide, there is simply not enough space available for exercises, for example 1 and 9 perform. The side handles for the exercise are also missing here 1 . Also for exercise 2 the frame with the struts on the GymWood device is not correctly aligned. For the exercises 4th and 7th there is a lack of a sensible stop surface, which is particularly important for beginners in order to correctly load the spine. Also for exercise 6th It seems that there is not enough space in the GymWood device, as the frame with the struts is in the way when it is correctly executed.

Accordingly, the gymnastics device according to the invention represents a clear improvement over the prior art, since all of the new exercises mentioned can be performed correctly with a very compact device with a very manageable footprint. In addition, the gymnastics device according to the invention with the large contact surface and the large number of grip elements offers important support for correct execution, especially for beginners.
