Trainer for simulating omnidirectional walking movement of a user

 

Formula of the invention

 

1.Trainer for simulating omnidirectional walking movement of a user, containing a user's workplace, made in the form of a movable platform with two movable footrests for the user's feet, placed on longitudinal guides installed on the transverse guides of the movable platform, wherein the movable platform is designed to be able to rotate in both directions around the center of rotation of the platform by means of a mechanism for rotating the movable platform, each platform is equipped with its own mechanism for moving the platform along the longitudinal guides, and the transverse guides contain a mechanism for moving along the transverse guides of the longitudinal guides, by means of which the longitudinal guides movably mounted on them with foot platforms located on them are able to move in turn over the center of angular rotation of the movable platform.

 2. The trainer according to paragraph 1, wherein each of the two movable foot platforms contains an angular rotation mechanism.

 3. The trainer according to paragraph 1, differing in that the transverse guides may be common to the longitudinal guides of both platforms, or the longitudinal guides of each platform are movably mounted on their transverse guides.

 4. The exercise machine according to paragraph 1, characterized in that it contains a detector unit, which includes devices that track the position of the feet on the upper part of the platform and the movement of the user's legs, as well as devices that track the position of the upper surface and the horizontal movement of the foot platforms.

5. The trainer according to paragraph 1, differing in that it contains an electric drive unit, including a control device and electromechanical components.

6. The trainer according to paragraph 1, characterized in that it contains a device for smooth starting and braking of the foot platforms.

7. The exercise machine according to paragraph 1, characterized in that the upper surfaces of the foot platforms can be round, oval, rectangular, or rectangular with beveled corners.

8. The exercise machine according to paragraph 1, characterized in that the upper surfaces of the foot platforms are equipped with mechanisms for raising/lowering and changing the angle of inclination.

9. The exercise machine according to paragraph 1, characterized in that the longitudinal and transverse guides may be linear or curved.

10. The exercise machine according to paragraph 1, characterized in that the movable platform is made in the form of a frame structure that fixes the transverse guides relative to each other.

 

 

Abstract

 

 

The claimed invention relates to exercise devices. The trainer for simulating omnidirectional walking movement of the user contains a user's workplace, made in the form of a movable platform with the possibility of angular rotation in both directions, with two movable platforms for the user's feet, installed with the possibility of movement along longitudinal guides designated for them, and, according to the invention, transverse guides are fixed on the movable platform, on which longitudinal guides are movably installed, having the ability to move above the center of angular rotation of the movable platform. The objective of the claimed invention is to expand the functionality and improve the performance characteristics of the device, as well as to increase the convenience and safety of its use and to increase the realism of omnidirectional walking on it with the implementation of various variations of walking and running. 9 p.p. f-ly, 12 ill.
