Problems solved by technology

However, since users have different body shapes, the amount of load applied to each footrest is different due to the difference in weight of parts such as legs, resulting in a different feeling of pressing down on the footrest parts.
Therefore, there is a problem that the passive exercise equipment cannot ensure a stable feeling of use

Embodiment Construction

[0025] The present invention will be explained below based on the embodiments shown in the drawings.

[0026] A passive exercise device 1 in the first embodiment of the present invention has a device base 20 placed on a fixed location such as the floor, as shown in Figures a and 3, and a seat support device 21 and a handle are provided on the base Column 30. The top edge of the seat support device 21 is provided with the seat 2 for supporting the buttocks of the user M. As shown in FIG. A handle 31 is provided on the top edge of the handle column 30, and the user M can grasp the handle 31 when necessary. A footstool 3 , the top surface of which serves as a footrest part 4 , is placed in the equipment base 20 at a position between the seat support 21 and the handle column 30 . Two footstools 3 are placed side by side along the left and right directions, and the left and right soles of the user M are placed on the pedal part 4, thereby adjusting the placement positions of the ...

Abstract

This aims to provide a passive exercise machine which does not give different depressing feelings of sole rests even to the users having different body structures but can retain a fixed using feeling. The passive exercise machine (1) comprises a seat (2) for seating the hip of a user (M), right and left footrests (3) to be stepped by the right and left soles of the user (M) seated on the seat (2), and a seat driving unit (50) for displacing the position of the seat (2) so that the load balance of the user (M) on the seat (2) and the footrests (3) may be changed to change the dead weight to act on the legs. The footrests (3) include sole rests (4) made vertically movable while bearing the soles, elastic means (6) for biasing the sole rests (4) upward, and bias adjusting means (7) for making the modulus of elasticity of the elastic means (6) adjustable.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to passive exercise equipment that drives and moves the seat with the soles of the user's feet resting on a footstool and the user's buttocks supported by the seat, thereby changing the force exerted on the user by its own weight. weight on the legs. Background technique [0002] With the soles of the user's feet resting on the footrest part of the footrest and the user's buttocks supported by the seat, the passive exercise equipment involved typically moves the seat through seat drives and moves the footrest part up and down To substantially stabilize its position relative to the seat (see Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2005-58733 and No. 2007-89650). In passive exercise equipment, it is possible to change the weight exerted by the user's own weight on the user's legs to contract and relax the muscles in the thigh region while hardly bending and stretching the knees—a burden on the user. Each footrest part ...
