Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sports equipment, in particular to a novel pelvic muscle bottom trainer. Background Art

[0002] The pelvic floor muscles refer to the muscle group that closes the pelvic floor. This muscle group is like a "hanging net". The urethra, bladder, vagina, uterus, rectum and other organs are tightly suspended by this "net", thereby maintaining their normal position in order to perform their functions.

[0003] The pelvic floor muscles have three major functions: supporting the pelvic organs, controlling urination and defecation, and participating in sexual life. Pelvic floor dysfunction is a series of diseases caused by the degeneration and damage of the pelvic floor support tissue, which leads to weak pelvic floor support or decreased muscle function, causing the patient's pelvic organs to shift or malfunction.

[0004] Strengthening the elasticity of the pelvic floor muscles is very important for women preparing for pregnancy and those who want to improve their sexual experience. Maintaining healthy pelvic floor muscles may help improve bladder and bowel control, increase balance and other functions.

[0005] Therefore, regular exercise of these muscles is important to keep them functioning properly. This pelvic floor muscle exercise by contraction and relaxation is usually called Kegel exercise. In addition to Kegel exercises, treatment methods such as electrical stimulation and biofeedback can also help strengthen the strength and elasticity of the pelvic floor muscles. For example, Chinese invention patent application number 115886823 discloses a pelvic floor muscle detection trainer and massager. By arranging a pressure detector and a prompter in the device body, it is possible to self-detect the pelvic floor muscles at home, and to implement training prompts through the prompter, so as to carry out scientific and accurate autonomous training. However, this design structure needs to be invasive, and there will be psychological and physiological difficulties when using this device for exercise. The device needs to be used in a private place, and this structure is not suitable for male use.

[0006] Therefore, based on the above problems, it is necessary to propose a new pelvic muscle floor trainer, which has a firm structure, is suitable for a wide range of people, has good training effects, and provides users with a more convenient pelvic muscle floor trainer option.
