Abstract

An apparatus for improving leg suppleness and leg spreading, consisting of four rails (3) interconnected by hinges (6, 7) which are supported by a threaded rod (8) held by two nuts (9). The hinges are fastened on two square tubes (5) into which two supports (11) with handles (10) may be inserted. Two plates (1), each having four wheels (12) are movable along the rails joined together at their ends by abutments (2). At first, the supports are grasped so that the body weight is borne by the legs as the carriages are controllaby and deliberately moved. As with all fitness apparatuses, excessive or unsupervised use is not recommended.

DESCRIPTION DESCRIPTION
ASSOUPLISSEUR POUR L'ECARTEMENT DES JAMBESSOFTENER FOR LEG SPREADING
La présente invention concerne un appareil destiné à toutes personnes désirant améliorer la souplesse et l'écartement des jambes.The present invention relates to an apparatus intended for all persons wishing to improve the flexibility and the spacing of the legs.
Dans de nombreuses activités sportives telles que la danse, les sports de combat, boxe française, arts martiaux, karaté, l'escalade, etc., cet appareil sera un atout important sur le plan de l'efficacité et de l'esthétique.In many sports activities such as dancing, combat sports, French boxing, martial arts, karate, climbing, etc., this device will be an important asset in terms of efficiency and aesthetics.
Cet appareil se compose de deux plateaux, deux supports de mains et d'un dispositif de rails articulé, permettant le repliage et le rangement au minimum d'encombrement.This device consists of two trays, two hand supports and an articulated rail device, allowing folding and storing at a minimum of space.
La planche 1/3 représente l'appareil dans les deux façons d'utilisation des supports de placement des mains, suivant le travail de face ou latéral.Plate 1/3 shows the device in the two ways of using the hand placement supports, depending on the front or side work.
La planche 2/3 représente le décomposé de l'appareil.Plate 2/3 represents the breakdown of the device.
La planche 3/3 représente cinq autres versions du système de fixation des chariots sur les rails.Plate 3/3 shows five other versions of the system for fixing the carriages to the rails.
Les rails en U (fig.l) peuvent être également profilés en L (fig-2 et fig.3), avec les roues situées à l'extérieur ou à l'intérieur de la cornière.The U-shaped rails (fig.l) can also be L-shaped (fig-2 and fig.3), with the wheels located outside or inside the angle.
Les rails peuvent aussi être profilés en C (fig.4) ou en fl (fig.5). Dans ces cas, les plateaux supporteront sur des roues guidées à l'intérieur des rails profilés et s'emboîtant par des encoches situées aux extrémités des rails.The rails can also be profiled in C (fig.4) or in fl (fig.5). In these cases, the plates will support on wheels guided inside the profiled rails and interlocking by notches located at the ends of the rails.
L'appareil peut être également réalisé avec des rails en tube rond (fig.6) sur lesquels glisseront des plateaux munis de galets supérieurs et inférieurs. L'appareil en tube rond sera surélevé par quatre supports d'embout. The device can also be made with round tube rails (fig. 6) on which trays fitted with upper and lower rollers will slide. The device in round tube will be raised by four end supports.
