The invention will be better understood thanks to the illustration that is made in Figures 1 to 6. According to these figures, the apparatus of the present invention is composed of a removable frame in round or square metal tubes to facilitate his storage. The sections of the tubes and their thickness will be adapted to the loads and efforts generated by the extension exercises, the user being seated on the saddle (15); it comprises a frame constituted by the tubes (1-3-5-6). The support tubes (1) rest on the ground and are provided with four support pads (2) neoprene. They support the vertical tubes (3 § 5) and the gripping bar (6), covered with a rubber-foam sleeve and provided with two special straps to hold the wrists of the user.
La verticalité des tubes (3), dans lesquels s'emboîtent les tubes (5), est obtenue par les contrefiches (11) vissées sur les tubes (1 § 3). Le tube transversal (1) du châssis reçoit le tube (32) supportant la selle et le boîtier de protection (17) du levier (29) de frein de selle et les ressorts de rappel (30) dudit levier, et le tendeur de câble.The verticality of the tubes (3), in which the tubes (5) fit together, is obtained by the struts (11) screwed onto the tubes (1, 3). The transverse tube (1) of the frame receives the tube (32) supporting the saddle and the protective casing (17) of the saddle brake lever (29) and the return springs (30) of said lever, and the cable tensioner .
Les tubes porteurs (1) sont obstrués à leur extrémité par des bouchons en matière plastique (20). Les tubes (3) sont repliables sur les tubes (1) selon le vecteur (24), ces tubes sont dotés d'une articulation (4) sur axe.The carrier tubes (1) are blocked at their ends by plugs of material plastic (20). The tubes (3) are foldable on the tubes (1) according to the vector (24), these tubes are provided with a hinge (4) on axis.
Le réglage en hauteur de la barre de préhension (6) s' effectue au moyen de broches-clips (8) qui s'engagent dans les trous percés dans les tubes coulissants (3 § 5). Les broches-clips (7) servent à la fixation de la barre de préhension (6) sur les tubes (5).The height adjustment of the gripping bar (6) is effected by means of pin-clips (8) which engage in the holes drilled in the sliding tubes (3 § 5). The clip pins (7) are used for fixing the gripping bar (6) on the tubes (5).
La barre repose-pieds (10) est revêtue d'un manchon en caoutchouc-mousse et reçoit la pédale (19) de commande du frein de selle ; cette pédale est maintenue sur la barre (10) par un support formé par un demi-tube muni d'une broche qui traverse la barre (10) afin d'être démontable.The footrest bar (10) is coated with a foam rubber sleeve and receives the pedal (19) for controlling the seat brake; this pedal is held on the bar (10) by a support formed by a half-tube provided with a pin which passes through the bar (10) to be removable.
L'effort sur la pédale (19) est transmis par le câble (18) au levier (29) solidaire de l'excentrique (28) qui débloque le frein pour mise à niveau de la selle (15) par l'utilisateur.The force on the pedal (19) is transmitted by the cable (18) to the lever (29) integral with the eccentric (28) which releases the brake for leveling of the saddle (15) by the user.
Le frein de selle comporte le tube (16) qui reçoit ladite selle et coulisse sur le tube (32) fixé sur le tube (1) du châssis. Le ressort de remontée de selle (26) s'appuie sur la rondelle (43) qui maintient la tête de l'axe (37) de l'excentrique. Une autre rondelle similaire maintient la tête de l'excentrique en partie basse (page 2/3 - 3/3 Fig. 3,4,5,6). L'excentrique (27) actionne la mâchoire de frein mobile (31) par l'intermédiaire du levier (29) et des ressorts (30) qui maintiennent ladite mâchoire en contact avec le tube (16), ce qui provoque le blocage entre eux des deux tubes (16 § 34). Ce blocage étant permanent, l'utilisateur appuie sur la pédale (19) pour descendre ou monter la selle.The seat brake comprises the tube (16) which receives said saddle and slides on the tube (32) fixed on the tube (1) of the frame. The saddle spring (26) rests on the washer (43) which holds the head of the axis (37) of the eccentric. Another similar washer holds the eccentric head at the bottom (page 2/3 - 3/3 Fig. 3,4,5,6). The eccentric (27) actuates the movable brake shoe (31) via the lever (29) and springs (30) which hold said jaw in contact with the tube (16), causing the locking between them two tubes (16 § 34). This blocking being permanent, the user presses the pedal (19) to lower or raise the saddle.
La barre repose-pieds (10) est soutenue par des tubes verticaux (12) dotés de trous pour le réglage en hauteur par coulissement des tubes (10 § 12) l'un dans l'autre avec fixation à la hauteur désirée par les broches-clips (9). Le réglage de cette barre horizontalement par rapport à la selle peut être effectué par déplacement du tube (12), qui est muni d'un téton (44), s'emboîtant dans les trous (14) prévus à cet effet sur les tubes (1) du châssis.The footrest bar (10) is supported by vertical tubes (12) having holes for sliding height adjustment of the tubes (10, 12) one inside the other with attachment to the desired height by the pins -clips (9). The adjustment of this bar horizontally with respect to the saddle can be done by moving the tube (12), which is provided with a pin (44), fitting into the holes (14) provided for this purpose on the tubes ( 1) of the chassis.
La selle est montée sur deux glissières à billes (25) pour une translation avant- arrière, avec vis de blocage en position (23) ; celle-ci peut également tourner sur 360° (35) avec vis de blocage (36) en position.The seat is mounted on two ball rails (25) for a forward-to-back translation, with locking screw in position (23); it can also rotate 360 ° (35) with locking screw (36) in position.
L'utilisation de cet appareil, entièrement démontable, s'effectue de la façon suivante : l'utilisateur règle la selle au maximum de la hauteur avec la pédale (19), il s'assoie dessus et détermine la hauteur de la barre de préhension (6) en s'accrochant à elle après avoir passé les mains dans les sangles (13), puis il pose ses pieds sur la barre repose- pieds (10) et règle celle-ci en hauteur et distance si nécessaire ; il peut alors mettre son dos en tension, en laissant descendre la selle par appui sur la pédale (19) jusqu'au réglage optimum. La sécurité de l'utilisateur est assurée, car il est impossible de rester pendu par les bras à la barre de préhension (6), (en cas de descente imprévue de la selle) alors qu'il est accroché à celle-ci, il pose les pieds sur le sol pour se dégager.The use of this device, completely removable, is as follows: the user adjusts the saddle to the maximum height with the pedal (19), it sits on it and determines the height of the gripping bar (6) by clinging to her after putting his hands in the straps (13), then he places his feet on the footrest bar (10) and adjusts the latter height and distance if necessary; he can then put his back in tension, leaving the saddle down by pressing the pedal (19) to the optimum setting. The safety of the user is ensured, because it is impossible to hang by the arms to the gripping bar (6), (in case of unexpected descent of the saddle) while it is hooked to it, it put your feet on the ground to free yourself.
