[0031] Schematic sit-up aid, reference Figures 2 to 5 According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a sit-up assisting device includes a frame assembly 10, a seat cushion 20 and two hook legs 30.

[0032] Specifically, the frame assembly 10 includes an I-frame 101 and a T-frame (not shown in the figure), the T-frame is located at one end of the I-frame 101, and the T-frame is arranged vertically to the I-frame 101; in addition, the bottom of the seat cushion 20 is fixedly connected to the I-frame 101, so that the relative positions of the seat cushion 20 and the I-frame 101 are fixed; in addition, the two hook legs 30 are respectively located on both sides of the T-frame and are connected to the T-frame.

[0033] It should be noted that when doing sit-ups, the exerciser lies on his back with his buttocks sitting on the cushion 20, bends his knees, and hooks the soles of his feet on the two hooking parts 30 respectively. Then, he places his arms on his chest or behind his head, lies flat with his back in contact with the cushion 20, and uses his abdominal force to make his upper body stand up and close to his legs to complete a sit-up, and then lies flat again, repeating the cycle.

[0034] Since the exercisers consume a lot of physical energy during exercise, their backs may sweat a lot. When the exercisers lie flat, sweat stains are likely to remain on the seat cushion 20. In situations where multiple people use the seat cushion continuously, such as schools, if sweat stains from the previous exerciser remain on the seat cushion 20, it may be unhygienic.

[0035] In view of this, in an embodiment of the present application, the sit-up assist device further includes a cloth pad 40 , the two ends of which are respectively wrapped around the two sides of the bottom of the seat cushion 20 , and the cloth pad 40 is attached to the top surface of the seat cushion 20 .

[0036] It should be noted that the total length of the cloth pad 40 is several times the width of the seat cushion 20. By providing the cloth pad 40, when an exerciser lies flat on their back during exercise, their back comes into contact with the cloth pad 40. If the exerciser's back sweats and leaves sweat stains on the cloth pad 40, they can rotate one end of the cloth pad 40 to roll up one end of the cloth pad 40 and gradually unfold the other end of the cloth pad 40. During this process, the portion of the cloth pad 40 that originally had sweat stains is rolled up, and at the same time, the unfolded portion of the cloth pad 40 replaces the original portion of the cloth pad 40 and fits against the seat cushion 20, making it easier for the next exerciser to use it. Obviously, by providing the cloth pad 40 with its two ends respectively wound around the two sides of the seat cushion 20, compared to the prior art, the seat cushion surface can be replaced, making it suitable for continuous use by multiple people.

[0037] Furthermore, in order to realize that the cloth pad 40 is wound around both sides of the bottom of the seat cushion 20, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the sit-up assist device also includes two rotating shafts 501, which are rotatably installed on both sides of the bottom of the seat cushion 20, one end of the cloth pad 40 is wound on one rotating shaft 501, and the other end of the cloth pad 40 is wound on the other rotating shaft 501.

[0038] It should be noted that the side wall of the rotating shaft 501 has a protrusion or groove (not marked in the figure) for fixing the cloth pad 40. When the side wall of the rotating shaft 501 has multiple protrusions, the protrusion is made to pierce one side of the cloth pad 40, and then the cloth pad 40 is wound around the rotating shaft 501, so that the cloth pad 40 is wound around the rotating shaft 501 or the cloth pad 40 is spread along the rotating shaft 501 when the rotating shaft 501 rotates circumferentially; when the side wall of the rotating shaft 501 has multiple grooves, one side of the cloth pad 40 is made to extend into the groove, and a pressure block is embedded in the groove and presses the cloth pad 40, so that the cloth pad 40 is wound around the rotating shaft 501 or the cloth pad 40 is spread along the rotating shaft 501 when the rotating shaft 501 rotates circumferentially.

[0039] It should also be noted that, in the initial state, only the cloth pad 40 is connected to one of the rotating shafts 501, and the cloth pad 40 is completely wound around the other rotating shaft 501. By rotating the rotating shaft 501 that is only connected to the cloth pad 40, the cloth pad 40 is gradually wound around this rotating shaft 501, and the rotating shaft 501 that was previously completely wound around the cloth pad 40 gradually spreads out the cloth pad 40.

[0040] Furthermore, in order to realize the rotation of the shaft 501, it is mounted on the seat cushion 20. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the frame assembly 10 further includes a plurality of insertion seats 502 . An insertion seat 502 is provided at both ends of each of the rotating shafts 501 , and the insertion seat 502 is fixedly connected to the seat cushion 20 .

[0041] Furthermore, when one side of the cloth pad 40 is used, in order to facilitate the removal and replacement of the cloth pad 40, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, each of the insertion seats 502 has a rotating hole 5022 with an opening 5021, and each of the rotating shafts 501 passes through the opening 5021 and extends into the rotating hole 5022. The material of the insertion seat 502 is plastic, the aperture of the rotating hole 5022 is larger than the shaft diameter of the rotating shaft 501, and the width of the opening 5021 is smaller than the shaft diameter of the rotating shaft 501.

[0042] It should be noted that when replacing the cloth pad 40, an upward force is applied to the rotating shaft 501 to make the rotating shaft 501 disengage from the opening 5021 of the rotating hole 5022. Then, the cloth pad 40 is removed and replaced with a new cloth pad 40. When the rotating shaft 501 is placed in the rotating hole 5022, it can rotate circumferentially in the rotating hole 5022.

[0043] Furthermore, in order to prevent the rotating shaft 501 from moving along the central axis direction of the rotating hole 5022 and falling out of the rotating hole 5022, Figure 5 As shown, each of the two ends of the rotating shaft 501 has an anti-slip portion 5011 , and the maximum radial dimension of the anti-slip portion 5011 is larger than the aperture of the rotating hole 5022 .

[0044] Furthermore, in order to ensure that when the rotation of one of the rotating shafts 501 stops, the cloth pad 40 on the other rotating shaft 501 will not unfold by itself, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the sit-up assist device further includes a plurality of spring clips 60, one end of each spring clip 60 being fixedly connected to the seat cushion 20, such fixed connection methods including but not limited to adhesive connection or bolt connection, and the other end of each spring clip 60 pressing the cloth pad 40 wound around the rotating shaft 501. The spring clips 60 apply a predetermined pressure to the cloth pad 40 to prevent the cloth pad 40 from unfolding on its own.

[0045] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the plurality of spring pieces 60 are connected to each other via a plurality of connecting members 601 , so that it is convenient to move the spring pieces 60 when the cloth pad 40 is removed or replaced.

[0046] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the rotation of the rotating shaft 501, as Figure 2 As shown, an end of the rotating shaft 501 away from the elastic piece 60 has a handle portion 5012 .

[0047] It should be noted that, in the initial state, a new cloth pad 40 is wound on the rotating shaft 501 close to the spring 60, and the rotating shaft 501 with the handle portion 5012 is only connected to the other side of the cloth pad 40. By holding the handle portion 5012 and rotating the handle portion 5012, the rotating shaft 501 with the handle portion 5012 rotates circumferentially and gradually winds up the cloth pad 40.

[0048] Furthermore, in order to realize the connection between the I-frame 101 and the seat cushion 20, the two sides of the I-frame 101 have a number of extension parts 1011 arranged at intervals, the middle section of the I-frame 101 is located in the middle section of the seat cushion 20, and the extension part 1011 extends from the middle section of the seat cushion 20 to the side of the seat cushion 20, and the extension part 1011 is connected to the seat cushion 20 with threaded fasteners.

[0049] Furthermore, in order to prevent the sit-up assisting device from moving when the exerciser performs the exercise, a knurled sleeve 1012 is provided on each of the four corners of the I-shaped frame 101 .

[0050] In summary, the sit-up assist device according to the embodiment of the present application is explained, which provides the sit-up assist device with advantages such as the ability to replace the seat cushion surface and being suitable for continuous use by multiple people.

[0051] It is worth mentioning that in the embodiments of the present application, the sit-up assist device has a simple structure, does not involve complex manufacturing processes and expensive materials, and is highly economical. Furthermore, for manufacturers, the sit-up assist device provided in the present application is easy to produce and low in cost, which is more conducive to controlling production costs and further facilitating product promotion and use.
