This new multipurpose gymnastic device has its main field of application both in rehabilitation centers and for private use in a home, where different dynamic functions are required to make work the limbs that the user has injured and is not able to exercise itself.

Description

Multipurpose gymnastic apparatus.

Object of the invention

The present invention patent has for object to present a new multipurpose gymnastic apparatus, which by a mechanical system of pulleys, cables and bars develops different movements, while incorporating several accessories, being therefore multifunctional.

Through this multipurpose gymnastic apparatus you get with a minimum voluntary force by any body limb, involuntarily move any other body limb

This new invention has its main field of application both in rehabilitation centers and for use particular in a domicile, where the different are required dynamic functions to make the body work.

Background of the invention

So far how to work the different parts of the body, it is through different devices gymnastics, which require voluntary movements to Exercise the different muscles.

On the other hand, gymnastic devices Existing do not allow you to exercise muscles that cannot be move voluntarily.

Description of the invention

The multi-purpose gymnastic apparatus, object of The present invention patent is basically composed of a system that obtains the strength of any part of the body of the user, and through a pulley system and a series of accessories interchangeable, allows to work the part of the body that the User is not able to move voluntarily.

The technical problem that currently exists is that to achieve mobility of the body area that a user is not able to exercise voluntarily, is necessary the performance of a doctor or a physiotherapist, to achieve that end.

The way this new gymnastic apparatus Multipurpose solves the problems discussed above is by combining a platform, which allows access to a wheelchair user, and once fixed is on the platform, allows the user to position the limbs of the body in the different accessories of the multipurpose gymnastic apparatus, for that when working with the muscles that the user is able to exercise voluntarily, the muscles are also exercised that the user is not able to exercise voluntarily, since what the multipurpose gymnastic apparatus achieves is to compensate for voluntary movements, with involuntary ones, and therefore by working the muscles of all the extremities of the body.

The fact that you have several accessories that can change position, is to be able to get the arm and leg movements can work simultaneously or alternative, thus being able to work together arms and legs, or interspersed, which is achieved without complex mechanical systems to achieve that end.

Apart from the functionality for people seated, can be used for people who, using between four and eight support points (feet, knees, elbows, arms, hands, etc.) can simulate the movement of crawling, to work with this multipurpose gymnastic apparatus.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

As it is possible to observe in the figures attached, the multipurpose gymnastic apparatus, object of the present invention patent, is composed of a main frame (1) in which a ramp (16) is disposed at one of its ends, and in the sides of its upper part of guides (2) that are joined by two pins (18), on which the chair will move of user wheels; the anchor (5) has two inserts vertical at its lateral ends (51) and (52), this in turn goes joined by the profile (12) to the anchor (6), which has in its lateral end of a vertical insert (61).

The anchor (7) has at its lateral ends of two vertical inserts (71) and (72), this in turn is linked through the profile (19) to the anchor (10), which has at its end side of a vertical insert (101).

The anchor (7) is attached to the anchor (6) by means of the cable (8), which passes through the pulley (9); the anchor (10) is attached to the anchor (5) by the cable (11), which passes through the pulley (13).

The right rowing arm (3) can be placed by its lower end in the insert (51) or in the (101), Depending on the type of movement you want to perform, the arm left paddling (4) is placed at its lower end in the fixed insert (52); the right foot support (14) it can be mounted by its lower end in the insert (71) or in the (61), depending on the type of movement you want to perform, the left foot support (15) is mounted at its end bottom in the insert (72) fixedly.

The upper ends of the rowing arms (3) and (4) are coated with a material similar to the sponge.

The foot supports (14) and (15) have a clamping screw (17) for fixing in the position of mounting.

The guides (2) can be adjusted in width, by means of the pins (18), which have at their lateral ends of tightening screws (17).

The inserts (51), (52), (61), (71), (72) and (101) can be adjusted in width with respect to the frame main (1), since they have an adjustable path in the different anchors to which they belong.

Figure 1 shows the principle of operation with accessories mounted so that legs and arms move alternately, that is rowing arms (3) and (4) together with the foot supports (14) and (15) are They move alternately.

Figure 2 shows the principle of operation with accessories mounted so that legs and arms move simultaneously, ie rowing arms (3) and (4) together with the foot supports (14) and (15) are They move simultaneously.

Once nature is sufficiently described of the present invention, as well as a way of bringing it to the practice, it only remains to be added that said invention can suffer certain variations in form and materials, as long as these alterations do not substantially vary the characteristics which are claimed below.
