Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Trainings- bzw. Übungsgerät, z. B. ein Gleichgewichtstrainingsgerät zur Verbesserung der Sensomotorik und damit der menschlichen Bewegungskoordination.The present invention relates to a training or exercise device, for. B. a balance training device to improve the sensorimotor and thus the human motion coordination.

Bisheriger Stand der TechnikPrevious state of the art

Es ist bekannt, dass Trainingsgeräte zur Verbesserung der Gleichgewichtsfähigkeit und der Sensomotorik die Bewegungskoordination und damit die sportliche Leistungsfähigkeit positiv beeinflussen, Verletzungen vorbeugen und die Rehabilitation nach Verletzungen beschleunigen können.It is known that exercise equipment to improve balance and sensorimotor performance can positively influence the coordination of movement and thus the athletic performance, prevent injuries and accelerate the rehabilitation after injury.

Bislang basieren diese Trainingsgeräte auf dem Prinzip eines klassischen Therapiekreisels oder aus einer Kombination von Wackelbrettern und Rotationssystemen. Darüber hinaus gibt es Airpads oder spezielle Bälle auf die ggfs. ein Board aufgelegt wird. So wird bspw. in der Offenlegungsschrift zu GB 2270634A betreffend ein Trainingsgerät für die Fuß- und Beinmuskulatur eine Kugel zwischen zwei Halbschalen, die sich auf der Bodenplatte und auf der Unterseite der Standfläche befinden, gelegt. Ringsherum sind die Platten mit elastischen Komponenten flexibel verbunden. Duch die konkave Ausformung der Halbschalen tendiert die Kugel stets Richtung Zentrum und es findet bei jeder Bewegung eine tatsächliche räumliche Verschiebung des Auflagepunktes (Kugel) statt. Auch eine flexible Gummiverbindung im Zentrum zwischen Bodenplatte und Board ist bekannt. Darüber hinaus existieren Trainingsgeräte, die mit stochastisch randomisierten Schwingungen arbeiten, die wiederum mit Hilfe eines oder mehrerer Elektromotoren erzeugt werden. All diese Trainingsgeräte können vom Benutzer vielfältig eingesetzt werden. Der Benutzer kann darauf stehen, sitzen, knien, in Bauchlage und in Rückenlage liegen sowie diverse Bewegungen mehr oder weniger komplexer Natur ausführen.So far, these training devices based on the principle of a classic therapy gyroscope or a combination of shaky boards and rotation systems. In addition, there are airpads or special balls on which, if necessary, a board is launched. Thus, for example, in the published patent application GB 2270634A concerning a foot and leg musculoskeletal exerciser, place a ball between two half-shells located on the bottom plate and on the underside of the base. All around, the plates are flexibly connected with elastic components. Due to the concave shape of the half-shells, the ball always tends in the direction of the center and there is an actual spatial displacement of the contact point (ball) with each movement. Also, a flexible rubber compound in the center between the bottom plate and board is known. In addition, there are training devices that work with stochastic randomized vibrations, which in turn are generated with the help of one or more electric motors. All these training devices can be used by the user in many ways. The user can stand on it, sit, kneel, lie prone and supine and perform various movements of more or less complex nature.

Zu lösende technische AufgabeTechnical problem to be solved

Neben allen erwiesenen positiven Effekten, die diese Trainingsgeräte bieten, ist jedoch die Übertragbarkeit der damit ausführbaren Bewegungsmuster auf gewisse Sportarten fraglich bzw. eingeschränkt. Die von den Benutzern ausgeübten Bewegungen werden nach einer gewissen Zeit monoton und erzeugen nur noch geringe Trainingsreize, was auf die begrenzten Freiheitsgrade der Bewegung und die damit einhergehende mangelnde Funktionalität zurückzuführen ist.In addition to all the positive effects that these training devices offer, however, the transferability of the movement patterns that can be carried out to certain sports is questionable or limited. The movements exerted by the users become monotonous after a certain time and produce only little training stimuli, which is due to the limited degrees of freedom of the movement and the associated lack of functionality.

Die Anforderungen an die Bewegungskoordination sind schlichtweg gering. Keines dieser Trainingsgeräte ermöglicht es, dass sich das Board relativ zum Drehpunkt in verschiedenen Freiheitsgraden entkoppelt bewegen kann und sich zum Aufrechterhalten des Gleichgewichts lediglich der gemeinsame Schwerpunkt, zusammengesetzt aus Board und Körper des Benutzers, über der Kugelrolle (räumlich unveränderbarer Drehpunkt) befinden muss. Das dabei geforderte sensomotorische Reaktionsverhalten kommt den meisten Sportarten, die in Bewegung stattfinden, näher, denn hierbei gilt es zum Ausbalancieren der gemeinsamen Schwerpunktslage aus Teilen des Trainingsgerätes und des Benutzers, nicht nur ein Kräftegleichgewicht über ein gewisses Hebelarm-Verhältnis herzustellen, sondern auch das Auftreten deutlich komplexerer Massenträgheitsmomente und weiterer Brems-, Beschleunigungs-, und Fliehkräfte mit variablem Gradienten durch entsprechende Gegenbewegungen auszugleichen.The demands on motion coordination are simply low. None of these Training equipment allows the board to move decoupled relative to the fulcrum in various degrees of freedom and to maintain balance only the common center of gravity, composed of the user's board and body, must be above the ball roller (fixed pivot point). The required sensorimotor responsiveness comes closer to most sports that take place in motion, because here it is important to balance the common center of gravity of parts of the training device and the user, not only to create a balance of power over a certain lever arm ratio, but also the occurrence To compensate for significantly more complex moments of inertia and other braking, acceleration, and centrifugal forces with variable gradient by appropriate countermovements.

Da das für die Ausübung der meisten Sportarten notwendige Gleichgewicht zu einem großen Teil durch Reflexmechanismen reguliert wird, gilt es diese im Training zu schulen. Bislang existiert kein Sportgerät, das in der Lage ist ein sehr ähnliches Bewegungsgefühl zu vermitteln, wie es in den Zielsportarten wie bspw. Wellenreiten, Snowboarden, Windsurfen, Skifahren, Kitesurfen, Wakeboarden, etc., vorherrscht.Since the balance required for the exercise of most sports is regulated to a large extent by reflex mechanisms, it is important to train them in training. So far, there is no sports equipment that is able to convey a very similar sense of motion, as it prevails in the target sports such as. Surfing, snowboarding, windsurfing, skiing, kitesurfing, wakeboarding, etc.

Der im Patentanspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung liegt demzufolge das Problem zugrunde, ein sicheres Trainingsgerät zur Verbesserung der Gleichgewichtsfähigkeit, der Sensomotorik und damit der menschlichen Bewegungskoordination zu entwickeln, das in der Lage ist, das zuvor beschriebene Bewegungsgefühl zu vermitteln.The invention specified in claim 1 is therefore based on the problem of developing a safe exercise device for improving the balance ability, the sensorimotor and thus the human motion coordination, which is able to convey the previously described feeling of movement.

Offenbarung der ErfindungDisclosure of the invention

Dieses Problem wird durch die im Patentanspruch 1 aufgeführten Merkmale, einer auf einer Basisplatte angebrachten Kugelrolle mit einem sich darauf befindenden Board, das durch Gummibänder oder ähnliche elastische Komponenten flexibel fixiert wird, gelöst.This problem is solved by the features recited in claim 1, a mounted on a base plate ball roller with a board thereon, which is flexibly fixed by rubber bands or similar elastic components.

Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile bestehen insbesondere darin, dass Sportler eine Vielzahl komplexer Bewegungsmuster trainieren und damit Ihre Bewegungskoordination nachhaltig verbessern können. Ein Ansprechen der gleichen Reflexmechanismen wie bei bestimmten Sportarten ist möglich und infolgedessen finden Anpassungseffekte auch im alltäglichen Konditionstraining statt.The advantages achieved by the invention are, in particular, that athletes train a variety of complex movement patterns and thus can improve your movement coordination sustainable. A response of the same reflex mechanisms as in certain sports is possible and as a result, adaptation effects also take place in everyday condition training.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist im Patentanspruch 2 angegeben. Die Weiterbildung nach Patentanspruch 2 ermöglicht es, ein Gleichgewichtstrainingsgerät zur Verbesserung der Sensomotorik und damit der menschlichen Bewegungskoordination gemäß nachfolgendem Ausführungsbeispiel zu konstruieren.An advantageous embodiment of the invention is specified in claim 2. The development according to claim 2 makes it possible to construct a balance training device to improve the sensorimotor and thus the human motion coordination according to the following embodiment.

Das Board wird durch Gummibänder oder ähnliche elastische Komponenten, die am Board und an der Bodenplatte befestigt sind, an ruckartigen Bewegungen und an zu großen Auslenkungen gehindert.The board is prevented by rubber bands or similar elastic components, which are attached to the board and the bottom plate, to jerky movements and too large deflections.

Dies geschieht, indem die Gummibänder oder ähnliche elastische Komponenten die durch den Benutzer ausgelösten Bewegungen des Boards zunächst im Bewegungsverlauf in Abhängigkeit ihrer Federsteifigkeit dämpfen und bei einer gewissen maximalen Bewegungsamplitude in der eingeschlagenen Bewegungsrichtung vollständig stoppen. Aufgrund dieser konstruktiven Ausgestaltung des Trainingsgeräts, werden Bewegungen in 5 Freiheitsgraden ermöglicht:

  • Bewegung des Boards durch horizontales Verschieben in Längsrichtung
  • Bewegung des Boards durch horizontales Verschieben in Querrichtung
  • Kippen bzw. Drehen des Boards um die Längsachse
  • Kippen bzw. Drehen des Boards um die Querachse
  • Drehen des Borads um die Hochachse
This is done by the rubber bands or similar elastic components attenuate the triggered by the user movements of the board initially in the course of movement in response to their spring stiffness and stop completely at a certain maximum amplitude of motion in the direction of travel. Due to this structural design of the training device, movements in 5 degrees of freedom are made possible:
  • Movement of the board by horizontal displacement in the longitudinal direction
  • Movement of the board by horizontal displacement in the transverse direction
  • Tilting or rotating the board around the longitudinal axis
  • Tilt or rotate the board around the transverse axis
  • Turn the Borads around the vertical axis

Im Rahmen der Nutzung des Trainingsgeräts ergeben sich im Allgemeinen Bewegungen mit einem Bewegungsverlauf, der sich als eine vektorielle Zusammensetzung aus den 5 genannten Freiheitsgraden beschreiben lässt. Somit finden 5 der maximal 6 möglichen Freiheitsgrade von Bewegungen in einem dreidimensionalen Bezugs- bzw. Koordinatensystem Verwendung.In the context of the use of the training device, movements with a course of motion generally result, which can be described as a vectorial composition of the five degrees of freedom mentioned. Thus, 5 of the maximum 6 possible degrees of freedom of movements in a three-dimensional reference or coordinate system are used.
