Definitions

  • This invention relates to exercise equipment, and more particularly to an improved sports training belt.
  • Weighted training belts of the prior art suffer from the drawback that weights attached to the belt are not evenly distributed around the waist of the user, which concentrates the weight only in certain places around the user's waist, resulting in fatigue and sore spots around the user's waist, and even injury. Such weights are often not easy to replace or exchange with other weights of a different weight. Further, such weighted training belts of the prior art do not have adequate cushioning on the inside surface thereof, typically only providing a small cushion in one or two areas.
  • U.S. Patent Application No. 2005/0137063 Al to Abdo, on June 23, 2005 describes a flexible exercise device filled with a particulate material of a desired weight that can be comfortably worn as a belt, or wrapped around other body parts.
  • the outer portion is made of a stretchable material, allowing the weighted material to shift and compress when pressure is applied.
  • This device is intended to be versatile and comfortable, but does not allow the user to change the desired weight and does not provide additional cushioning or distribution of weight.
  • U.S. Patent Application No. 2008/0070760 Al to Daniel, on March 20, 2008 describes a weighted sleeve intended for use on a limb having an inner fleece portion and an outer stretchable polyester material with a pocket.
  • the weighted portion being filled with a plurality of metallic beads, is slidably insertable and removable from the pocket.
  • This device is intended for use with a limb, and as such, does not include the appropriate cushioning and distribution of weight for a device used around the waist.
  • U.S. Patent Application No. 2007/0039086 Al to Moore, on February 22, 2007, describes a soft belt intended for use with garments or carrying bags or luggage, or as a work belt.
  • the soft belt comprises nylon tubular webbing and is filled with polystyrene pellets, memory foam, shredded polyurethane foam, whole foam, or other soft material.
  • the soft belt is fully adjustable and is made for comfort. This device does not include particulate weighted material, interchangeable weights, or a means of distributing weight comfortably around the waist of the user.
  • U.S. Patent Application No. 2007/0099774 Al to Bruback, on May 3, 2007, describes a weighted belt having a spine, strap, securing ring, and weighted source.

  • a plurality of weighted tubes are included, each tube including a weighted filler material therein and each tube being sealed at each end thereof.
  • the weighted tubes may be selected by the user for insertion into the at least one pocket.
  • Each pocket is closed with the closure means, and the flexible strap is fastened around the user's waist and fastened with the attachment means through the loop. In this way the weight of the tubes are evenly distributed around the waist of the user.
  • the present invention is a device that allows for quick replacement of different weight configurations on a weighted training belt. Such user-selected weight is spread substantially evenly around the length of the belt. Further, the belt of the present invention includes adequate padding substantially around the entire inside surface of the belt.

Abstract

L'invention porte sur une ceinture d'entraînement qui est destinée à être portée autour de la taille d'un utilisateur. La ceinture comporte une sangle souple qui se termine, à une première extrémité, en une première sangle d'ajustement qui possède un moyen de fixation fixé à celle-ci. Une seconde extrémité de la sangle souple comprend une seconde sangle d'ajustement se terminant par une boucle. Une surface extérieure de la ceinture d'entraînement comprend au moins une poche qui s'étend sensiblement le long de la longueur de la sangle souple. Chaque poche comprend un moyen de fermeture s'étendant sensiblement le long de celle-ci pour retenir un ou plusieurs tubes lestés. Une surface intérieure de la sangle souple peut comprendre un coussin de rembourrage, fait en un matériau de type à mémoire de forme, par exemple, et s'étendant sensiblement autour de la longueur et de la hauteur de la sangle souple.
