Multifunctional exercise apparatus for posture correction

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of therapeutic-athletic exercise apparatus. The claimed exercise apparatus comprises a vertical guide rail that has a support for sliding. Disposed on the guide rail are: a movable horizontal crossbar which is connected to a pivoting roller unit and to fasteners for cables, and can be moved along the length of the guide rail and fastened in various positions, and which also has places for attaching athletic accessories; a pull-up bar mounted at the top, having a place for attaching athletic accessories and having guide rollers for cables; a pivoting arm connected through its axis of rotation to the lower part of the vertical guide rail such that the arm is capable of both pivoting and being fastened in various positions, moreover, mounted on the end of the arm is a horizontal crossbar having a place for fastening athletic accessories and having guide rollers for cables. The claimed exercise apparatus is suitable for both general exercises and for therapeutic purposes related to posture correction, thus making the exercise apparatus universal.

Description

PERTINENT ART[0001]The invention relates to the field of medical and sports multi-functional exercisers. More precisely, the invention relates to the field of exercisers intended for both general developmental physical exercises and therapeutic exercises for posture correction.PRIOR ART[0002]Impaired posture is one of the most common symptoms associated with functional disorders of the musculoskeletal system. The main signs are spinal curvature, asymmetric deviation of head position, the pelvis and other parts of the body relative to the central spine axis. Most often, the impaired posture is formed as a result of incorrect working posture, marked skeletal muscle weakness and congenital pathology of the musculoskeletal system. Such disorders adversely affect both the general state of health, and the appearance and attractiveness of a person. The lack of correct treatment aimed at correcting posture defects may lead to the development of complex degenerative-dystrophic diseases of jo...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0012]The purpose of the present invention was to develop an exerciser which can be used to perform general developmental or strength exercises, as well as full-fledged exercise complexes for posture correction. At the same time, an important requirement for the exerciser being developed was its compactness and accessibility, which in principle allowed it to be used not only in sports centers or medical institutions, but also in private apartments and houses, as well as office premises. Another important requirement was to ensure a quick change of fittings with no loss of training pace.

Problems solved by technology

As mentioned above, numerous problems are associated with impaired posture, from childhood to old age.

The imbalance between these muscle groups distorts the shoulder blade movement and impairs the coordination of the entire arm movement, limiting the movement range.

The compression of the supraspinatus tendon occurs as a result of repetitive pathological movements, which causes chronic tendon injury and severe pain.
