Abstract

An expansible rubber belt (1) is provided with a handle (2) at both ends. A contact arrangement (3), attached in a known manner, triggers a switching function when the rubber belt (1) is pulled lengthways. A counting apparatus (4) counts the number of extensions. A housing (5) encloses the counting apparatus (4) and the contact arrangement (3). <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Trimmen der Bein- oder Armmuskulatur mit einem Gummiband oder einer expandierbaren Feder und einer Zählvorrichtung.The invention relates to a device for trimming the Leg or arm muscles with a rubber band or expandable spring and a counting device.

Vorrichtungen zum Trimmen der Bein- oder Armmuskulatur mit einem Gummiband oder einer expandierbaren Feder sind allge­ mein unter der Bezeichnung Expander bekannt.Devices for trimming the leg or arm muscles a rubber band or an expandable spring are common my known as the expander.

Gesucht wurde ein solches Trainingsgerät mit dem die Anzahl der Streckungen ohne Beeinträchtigung der Funktion und auf eine sehr einfach und preisgünstige Weise gezählt werden können. Auch sollte die Vorrichtung einstellbar sein, damit der Schaltpunkt auf eine vorgegebene Streckung oder eine vorgegebene Zugkraft eingestellt werden kann.We were looking for such a training device with the number the extensions without impairing the function and on a very simple and inexpensive way to be counted can. The device should also be adjustable so that the switching point to a given extension or specified tractive force can be set.

Überraschenderweise wurde eine Vorrichtung gefunden, mit der die Gesamtstreckung des Gummibandes oder der Zugfeder mit einer nur wenige Zentimeter betragenden Teilstreckung ermittelt und zur Kontaktauslösung herangezogen werden kann.Surprisingly, a device was found with which the total stretch of the rubber band or the tension spring with a partial extension of only a few centimeters and can be used to initiate contact.

Die gefundene Lösung ist sehr preisgünstig herstellbar, die Expanderfunktion ist in keiner Weise beeinträchtigt, und eine einfache Einstellbarkeit der Zugkraft oder der Streckung ist gewährleistet. Eine elektronische Zählvorrichtung kann die ausgeführten Streckungen zählen. Mit der elektronischen Zählvorrichtung kann ferner eine Zeitvorgabe eingestellt werden in der eine bestimmte Anzahl von Streckungen ausge­ führt werden müssen. Einstellbar ist auch die Streckungs­ länge bei der die Schaltfunktion ausgelöst wird. Die elek­ tronische Zählvorrichtung kann auch akustisch geschehen, so daß eine elektronische Stimme über einen Lautsprecher die Anzahl der Streckungen ansagt.The solution found is very inexpensive to manufacture, the Expander function is not affected in any way, and easy adjustment of the tractive force or extension is guaranteed. An electronic counting device can the extensions made count. With the electronic Counting device can also set a time a certain number of extensions are made must be led. The aspect ratio is also adjustable  length at which the switching function is triggered. The elec tronic counting device can also be done acoustically, so that an electronic voice through a speaker the Announces the number of extensions.

Anstelle eines der beiden Griffe kann eine Halteöse befestigt werden, so daß der Expander zum Beispiel an einen Wandhaken eingehängt werden kann wobei das andere Ende mit dem Griff von Hand gezogen wird.A retaining eyelet can be attached instead of one of the two handles be so that the expander for example on a wall hook can be hung with the other end with the handle is pulled by hand.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist anhand der Zeichnung näher beschrieben.An embodiment of the invention is based on the drawing described in more detail.

Ein expandierbares Gummiband 1 ist an beiden Enden mit einem Griff 2 versehen. Eine auf bekannte Weise angebrachte Kontakt­ anordnung 3 löst eine Schaltfunktion aus wenn das Gummiband in die Länge gezogen wird. Eine Zählvorrichtung 4 zählt die Anzahl dar Streckungen. Ein Gehäuse 5 umfaßt die Zählvorrich­ tung und die Kontaktanordnung 3. Ein Klemmring 6 der Kontakt­ anordnung 3 ist verschiebbar an dem Gummiband 1 angebracht, so daß die Schaltfunktion bei der gewünschten Streckung des Gummibandes 1 erfolgt.An expandable rubber band 1 is provided with a handle 2 at both ends. A well-known contact arrangement 3 triggers a switching function when the rubber band is pulled out. A counting device 4 counts the number of extensions. A housing 5 includes the Zählvorrich device and the contact arrangement 3rd A clamping ring 6 of the contact arrangement 3 is slidably attached to the rubber band 1 , so that the switching function takes place at the desired extension of the rubber band 1 .
