Computer-controlled training device for spine-stabilizing musculature

Abstract

A computer-controlled training apparatus for spine-stabilizing musculature is designed to tilt an upstanding user by a predetermined angle in accordance with a training program recorded in a computer so as to cause a reflexive movement for the user based on the human body's sense of balance for maintaining posture. The training device for spine-stabilizing musculature includes a base stand, a pitching unit having a pitching plate installed above the base stand in a vertically pivotally rotatable manner, a rolling unit having a rolling plate rotatably coupled to the pitching unit, a securing unit mounted to the rolling unit for securing the user's body at a fixed position, and a cover for preventing the pitching unit and a part of the rolling unit below the rolling plate from being exposed to the outside.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a device for training musculature surrounding the spine, and more particularly, to a computer-controlled training apparatus for spine-stabilizing musculature, which is designed to tilt an upstanding user by a predetermined angle in accordance with a training program recorded in a computer so as to cause a reflexive movement for the user based on the human body's sense of balance for maintaining posture, thereby training musculature surrounding the spine, including an external oblique muscle and psoas muscle, via the reflex movement of the user and thus, preventing lumbago.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]Generally, if a variety of muscles surrounding the spine lose balance, the spine is affected by an unbalanced force and thus, has a risk of lumbago. Of the variety of muscles surrounding the spine, in particular, lumbago or disk disorders mainly occur in the region of vertebr...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0006]Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a training device for spine-stabilizing musculature which can freely regulate a rotating angle thereof in accordance with a training mode programmed in a computer connected to

Problems solved by technology

Generally, if a variety of muscles surrounding the spine lose balance, the spine is affected by an unbalanced force and thus, has a risk of lumbago.

A representative treatment for training a psoas muscle is a sit-up, but the sit-up is very difficult and thus, unacceptable.

In other words, the conventional waist-reinforcing training devices are unsu
