Definitions

the present invention relates to a gymnastic machine.
the present invention relates to a gymnastic machine usable for performing functional exercises.
the present invention relates to a gymnastic machine usable for performing functional exercises for the arms and/or legs.
the rowing machine is one of the first ones built, because of the specific nature of the rowing motion, which is easily reproducible in a low cost machine that takes up a small amount of space.
rowing machines were provided with hinged levers to reproduce the part of oar the user can grip, as in the Patent US3528653 by inventors Stuckenschneider and Ross, but from the early Eighties simplified machines have been produced of the type described with reference to the patent US4714244 now expired - by the American firm Bally Manufacturing Corporation. Since the early Nineties, the rowing machine "Concept 2" has been known, in which the brake system comprises a blade rotor rotating in air inside a casing provided with inputs for adjusting resistance inversely to the allowable air flow.
Such rowing machines are very simple, since the load group comprises a drum connected to a brake on which is wound in spiral fashion a cable whereto is connected a handlebar that simulates the oar.
the load group is supported by a frame, carrying a seat movable with reciprocating motion on a guide of the alternating rectilinear motion. Familiarity with the rowing motion has facilitated the widespread use of rowing machines also in homes. On the other hand, the familiarity with the motion has frequently led to an underestimation of its particular complexity, sometimes causing damage that could be treated only surgically.
the present invention relates to a gymnastic machine.
the present invention relates to a gymnastic machine usable for performing functional exercises.
the present invention relates to a gymnastic machine usable for performing functional exercises for the arms and/or legs.
the objective of the present invention is to construct a functional gymnastic machine that allows the disadvantages described above to be solved, and which is suitable to satisfy a plurality of requirements that to date have still not been addressed, and therefore, suitable to represent a new and original source of economic interest and capable of modifying the current fitness market.
a gymnastic machine is constructed, whose main characteristics are described in at least one of the appended claims.
the present invention relates to a rowing machine, said rowing machine being effectively usable for the safe execution of training sessions which globally involve the muscle regions of the body.
a further objective of the present invention is to provide a training method implementable on functional gymnastic machines, and in particular on gymnastic machines similar to rowing machine.
no. 1 indicates, in its entirety, a gymnastic machine comprising a frame 10, which is provided with a guide 20 of rectilinear motion extending along a given direction 30 to carry a user support member 40 in a freely sliding manner.
a load device 50 contained inside a casing 51 and supported by the frame 10 comprises at least one load unit 52 of a given nature, and at least one implement 60 (shown in figures 1 and 3) coupled with the load unit 52 by means of a traction device 70.
the guide 20 presents a first end 22, and the load device comprises a further load unit 54 that may or may not be distinct from the unit 52 and associated with the support member 40 to condition its mobility along the guide 20, in order to exercise two actions, controllable jointly or separately on a user's muscles.
the support member 40 comprises a seat that shall be indicated with the same reference number.
the seat 40 is coupled with the load unit 54 by means of a fastening device 72, comprising a traction member 72.
the traction device 70 comprises a cable 70, which may indifferently be made of textile fibre or braided metal; also similarly, the implement 60 comprises a handlebar 60 connected to the cable 70 in centreline position; and the traction member 72 comprises a further cable 72.
the machine 1 comprises a regulating unit 80 associated with the load device 50 to regulate or balance, according to criteria preferred by the user, the resisting actions exercisable on the load units 52 and 54 respectively on the implement 60 and on the seat 40 along the direction 30.
At least one of the load units 52 and 54, or even both, may be of the gravitational type, so comprising, for example, a plurality of bricks carried slidably by vertical guides, known in themselves and therefore purposely not shown.
At least one of the load units 52 and 54 may be of the mechanical type and may comprise, for example, although not limitingly, friction brake devices, known and thus not illustrated, for example, although not limitingly, band brakes or shoe brakes; or at least one of the load units 52 e 54 may be of a known fluid-dynamic type, for example, although not limitingly, provided with a blade rotor movable in a fluid, generally air, water or oil as in the case of the aforementioned "Concept 2" rowing machine.
a blade rotor movable in a fluid generally air, water or oil as in the case of the aforementioned "Concept 2" rowing machine.
each load unit 52 and 54 comprises an electromagnetic device 56 suitable to dissipate rotational mechanical energy, and in particular at least one of said load units comprises, without limiting the generality of the present invention, an electromagnetic brake 57.
both of the load units 52 and 54 comprise a brake 57 of electromagnetic type.
the unit 80 is electronically connected to each electromagnetic brake 57 and, without limiting the generality of the present invention, it can be positioned internally to the casing 51, as shown in figure 1, or externally to the case 51 protecting the load units 52 and 54 as shown in figure 2, and be supported by the frame 10 and totally contained within a console 59, hence not visible from the exterior.
the unit 80 comprises a logic device, generally an electronic card 82, programmable by means of a keyboard or at least a plurality of keys 84 carried by the console 59 and electronically connected to the card 82 in known fashion.
the console 59 is provided with at least a display 86 through which it is possible to verify the current operating state of the load device 50, and therefore also the total power absorbed by the device 50 through the two units 52 and 54, and the percentage of power absorbed by each of the two units, but also the number of strokes per minute of the implement 60 and/or of the seat 40.
the card 82 could coincide or be a part of a programmable logic programmer, known and not illustrated, because it is functionally suitable to embody, in use, what is described above.
each brake 57 is associated with a transmission 58 with parallel axes, in which two shafts 58' and 58" are mechanically connected to each other by means of a belt or any other flexible member wound in a loop on one of the wheels carried by the same shafts 58' and 58", or in any other way.
the shaft 58' is supported by the frame 10 in known fashion and not illustrated, and carries, keyed on, a disk 62 of the brake 57 itself; furthermore, in this transmission 58 the further shaft 58" is positioned side by side and parallel to the shaft 58', and is also supported by the frame 10 in known fashion and not illustrated.
This second shaft 58" carries, keyed, a drum 64, whereon is wound in spiral fashion a flexible member, generally the cable 70 made of braided textile material, which is stably connected to the implement 60.
a drum 64 carried by the corresponding shaft 58" carries, wound in spiral, the cable 72 made of braided textile material which is stably connected to the seat 40.
the guide 20 presents a first end 22 provided with an abutment member 24 (visible in figures 1 and 3) connected rigidly to the guide 20 between the seat 40 and the load device 50 to serve as a contrast member for an effort exercised on the seat 40.
the machine 1 can be interpreted as a rowing machine 1, wherein the implement 60, if embodied by means of a handlebar 60, simulates an oar and the seat 40 simulates a seat carried movable with alternative motion on rails in the cockpit of the boat.
the athlete positions himself on the seat 40 after having secured his/her feet to the fixed abutment member 24 before starting to row.
the step of exercising thrust with the lower limbs against the member 24 to displace the seat 40 can be performed against the resistance of the load unit 54 independently from the way this unit 54 is constructed, and that the latter unit can be distinct from the load unit 52 itself, or said units 52 and 54 may be mechanically or electronically coupled to each other to determine energy absorption in manners mentioned above, as will be better specified below.
the step of exercising a traction effort on the handlebar acting on the load unit 52 and the step of exercising a thrust with the lower limbs against the member 24 can be subsequent or simultaneous to a step of balancing at will the traction effort and the thrust through the regulating unit 80.
Said balancing is particularly useful in the case of less experienced users, given that, if performed under medical supervision, in addition to making the rowing exercise more effective in training terms, enables to control and prevent the formation of herniated disks, which can be caused by an improper use of the rowing machine 1 itself.
the regulating unit 80 is provided with devices for detecting the instantaneous position of the implement 60 and/or of the seat 40 in association with the traction device 70, e.g. encoders 66 provided with a rotatable equipment associated with the drums 64 and/or linear associated with the implement 60 and/or with the seat 40, it is possible to interact with the units 52 and 54 by means of the electronic card 82 of the unit 80 in such a way as to generate electronic signals usable in feedback control loops to drive the units 52 and 54 at will.
devices for detecting the instantaneous position of the implement 60 and/or of the seat 40 in association with the traction device 70 e.g. encoders 66 provided with a rotatable equipment associated with the drums 64 and/or linear associated with the implement 60 and/or with the seat 40
the complexity of the operating functions of the regulating unit 80 may require it to be provided with a programmable logic programmer which may or may not be able to communicate with resident memory cards and/or memory cards loaded on customisable portable memories.
the determined parameters measurable by the encoders 66 can be considered static or dynamic values such as the instantaneous position of the handlebar 60 and/or of the seat 40, the instantaneous velocity of the handlebar 60 and/or of the seat 40, the instantaneous traction effort exercised on the handlebar 60 or the thrust of the lower limbs on the seat 40.
the set-up of the machine 1 could be changed by utilising, instead of the fastening member 72, and therefore of the cable 72, a linear electric motor 90, in which a stator 92 is connected to the guide 20 and a respective cursor 94 is connected to the seat 40.
a linear electric motor 90 in which a stator 92 is connected to the guide 20 and a respective cursor 94 is connected to the seat 40.
this solution would enable to make the seat 40 controllable by means of the regulating unit 80 in relation to the power dissipated both in the movement away from and in the movement back towards a given rest position, similarly to what would be possible if the seat were connected to a double acting motor 90.
connection between the guide 20 and the frame 10 could be rigid and selectively releasable, or the guide 20 could even be hinged to the frame 10 from the side of the device 50. In this way, the simple rotation of the guide 20 relative to the portion of the frame 10 carrying the device 50 would allow a considerable reduction in the bulk on the ground of the machine 1.
