Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of body-building exercise equipment, especially to a pelvic floor muscle trainer. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the progress of the times, people pay more and more attention to health problems. In recent years, the popularity of female pelvic floor dysfunction is getting higher and higher. Among the non-surgical treatment methods for treating female pelvic floor dysfunction, pelvic floor muscle training is a more recognized means. The existing pelvic floor muscle trainers are generally divided into trainers placed in the female human body and double-leg clamping type trainers. The double-leg clamping type pelvic floor muscle trainer can improve the contraction ability of the pelvic floor muscles, enhance the tension and contraction force of the pelvic floor muscles, improve the supporting ability and endurance of the pelvic floor muscles, and solve the problem of relieving the pelvic floor muscles.

[0003] The double-leg clamping type trainer on the market is mainly formed by two hinged clamping arms, and combines torsional springs and other elastic elements to form resistance to achieve the purpose of training. The use of torsional springs and other elastic elements makes the trainer complex to assemble, time-consuming and laborious, and high in production cost. SUMMARY

[0004] The utility model provides a pelvic floor muscle trainer in view of the above problems.

[0005] The technical scheme adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0006] The application provides a pelvic floor muscle trainer, which comprises two support arms and a connecting part arranged between the two support arms.

[0007] The connecting part is an open ring structure or a U-shaped structure.

[0008] The two support arms are respectively arranged towards the open side of the connecting part away from the connecting part.

[0009] The connecting part is elastic, so that when the two support arms are respectively subjected to stress towards the side of the other support arm, the connecting part is extruded and deformed, and when the stress is removed, the connecting part returns to the natural state.

[0010] In actual use, the connecting part will form a counterforce when resisting stress deformation. The user can achieve the training purpose by applying a force greater than the counterforce of the connecting part to the support arm. Compared with the existing pelvic floor muscle training device with a torsional spring structure, the pelvic floor muscle trainer provided by the application is simple in structure, convenient to use, and does not need too many parts and manual assembly during production, which can greatly reduce the production cost.

[0011] Further, the support arm and the connecting part are integrally formed.

[0012] The support arm and the connecting part are integrally formed, which can reduce the types of production molds and further reduce the production cost.

[0013] Further, the connecting part is formed with two first connecting ends at the opening, and two second connecting ends are respectively formed on the two support arms, which are used to cooperate with the first connecting ends of the connecting part to connect the two support arms with the connecting part.

[0014] Further, the first connecting end is formed with a convex rib, and the second connecting end is formed with a concave accommodating groove, or the first connecting end is formed with a concave accommodating groove, and the second connecting end is formed with a convex rib.

[0015] The concave accommodating groove is sleeved on the convex rib, so that the connecting part and the support arm are detachably connected.

[0016] The detachable connection of the connecting part and the support arm facilitates replacement. When the support arm or the connecting part is damaged, the damaged part can be replaced, which is convenient for cost saving. When different training resistance values are needed, the connecting part can be detached and replaced with a connecting part with a different resistance value. The resistance value of the connecting part is determined by the thickness and material of the connecting part, which can be selected and customized according to actual needs or cost requirements.

[0017] Further, a convex point is formed on the outer side wall of the convex rib, and a concave point is formed on the inner side wall of the concave accommodating groove, or a concave point is formed on the outer side wall of the convex rib, and a convex point is formed on the inner side wall of the concave accommodating groove.

[0018] When the concave accommodating groove is sleeved on the convex rib, the convex point and the concave point cooperate to prevent the concave accommodating groove from sliding off the convex rib.

[0019] Further, it further includes a latch, a first hole is formed on the convex rib, and a second hole is formed on the body wall of the concave accommodating groove. When the concave accommodating groove is sleeved on the convex rib, the latch passes through the first hole and the second hole in sequence, so that the connecting part and the support arm are relatively fixed.

[0020] The detachable connection of the connecting part and the two support arms in a split design can facilitate the transportation of the pelvic floor muscle trainer and the selection of different production materials.

[0021] Further, the pelvic floor muscle trainer further includes a transition part, which is arranged between the support arm and the connecting part, and the transition part is an arc structure for smooth transition of the support arm and the connecting part.

[0022] The transition part can transition force and improve service life.

[0023] Further, the transition portion is integrally formed with the support arm, or the transition portion is integrally formed with the connecting portion, or the transition portion, the support arm and the connecting portion are integrally formed.

[0024] Further, the support arm is formed with a hollow portion for reducing the contact area of the support arm with the user's body and providing a heat dissipation channel.

[0025] During actual exercise, the user is prone to generate heat and sweat. The hollow portion reduces the contact area of the thigh with the support arm, increases the heat dissipation surface, reduces sweating, and also facilitates the cleaning and sanitary state of the training equipment.

[0026] In addition, in addition to providing a heat dissipation channel, the overall material is also reduced, further reducing the production cost.

[0027] Further, the hollow portion is a first through hole arranged at the middle position of the support arm.

[0028] Or, the hollow portion is a plurality of second through holes uniformly arranged along the support arm.

[0029] Or, the hollow portion is a first through hole arranged at the middle position of the support arm and a plurality of second through holes arranged along the periphery of the first through hole, and the hole diameter of the second through hole is smaller than that of the first through hole.

[0041] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0042] Embodiment 1

[0043] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the present application provides a pelvic floor muscle trainer, which comprises two support arms 10 and a connecting part 20 arranged between the two support arms 10.

[0044] The connecting part 20 is of an open ring type structure.

[0045] The two support arms 10 are respectively arranged towards the side away from the opening of the connecting part 20.

[0046] The connecting part 20 is elastic, so that when the two support arms 10 respectively receive stress towards the side of the other support arm, the connecting part 20 is extruded and deformed, and when the stress is removed, the connecting part 20 returns to the natural state.

[0047] The connecting part 20 is made of plastic, and in addition to the open structure, the elastic deformation and recovery of the opening of the connecting part 20 are realized.

[0048] In actual use, the deformation of the connecting part 20 against stress will form a counterforce, and the user can achieve the training purpose by applying a force greater than the counterforce of the connecting part 20 to the support arm 10. Compared with the existing pelvic floor muscle training device with a torsional spring structure, the pelvic floor muscle trainer provided by the present application is simple in structure, convenient to use, and does not need too many parts and manual assembly during production, which can greatly reduce the production cost.

[0049] In actual use, the material of the plastic connecting portion 20 can be spring or plastic: PE, PP, PC, PF, EP, ABS, PA or PMMA. However, the material of the connecting portion 20 is not limited to spring or the above-mentioned plastics. The connecting portion 20 is elastic because it is designed to have an open ring structure or a U-shaped structure. For a certain type of plastic material, the elasticity, toughness and rigidity thereof can be changed by polymerization control and composite modification to meet the required standards of customers. In the selection of the material of the connecting portion, the application only provides a possible implementation scheme, i.e., plastic material, and does not require that only a certain type of plastic can be implemented.

[0050] In other embodiments, the connecting portion 20 can also have an open U-shaped structure.

[0051] In other embodiments, the support arm 10 can also be plastic, including but not limited to the following plastics: PE, PP, PC, PF, EP, ABS, PA or PMMA.

[0052] In this embodiment, the connecting portion 20 is formed with two first connecting ends 210 at the opening, and the two support arms 10 are respectively formed with second connecting ends 110 for cooperating with the first connecting ends 210 of the connecting portion 20, so that the two support arms 10 are respectively connected to the connecting portion 20.

[0053] The separate design of the connecting portion 20 and the two support arms 10 facilitates transportation and selection of different production materials.

[0054] In this embodiment, the first connecting end 210 is formed with a convex rib, and the second connecting end 110 is formed with a concave accommodating groove, which is sleeved on the convex rib, so that the connecting portion 20 and the support arm 10 are detachably connected.

[0055] The detachable connection of the connecting portion 20 and the support arm 10 facilitates replacement. When the support arm 10 or the connecting portion 20 is damaged, the damaged part can be replaced, which saves cost. When different training resistance values are required, the connecting portion 20 can be detached and replaced with a connecting portion 20 having a different resistance value.

[0056] In other embodiments, the first connecting end 210 can be formed with a concave accommodating groove, and the second connecting end 110 can be formed with a convex rib.

[0057] In this embodiment, the outer side wall of the convex rib is formed with a convex point, and the inner side wall of the concave accommodating groove is formed with a concave point. When the concave accommodating groove is sleeved on the convex rib, the convex point cooperates with the concave point to prevent the concave accommodating groove from sliding off the convex rib.

[0058] In other embodiments, the outer side wall of the convex rib can be provided with concave points, and the inner side wall of the concave receiving groove can be provided with convex points.

[0059] In the present embodiment, the latch 40 is further included, the convex rib is provided with a first hole, and the body wall of the concave receiving groove is provided with a second hole. When the concave receiving groove is sleeved on the convex rib, the latch 40 passes through the first hole and the second hole, so that the connecting part 20 and the support arm 10 are relatively fixed.

[0060] In the present embodiment, the pelvic floor muscle trainer further includes a transition part 30, which is arranged between the support arm 10 and the connecting part 20, and the transition part 30 is an arc structure for smooth transition with the support arm 10 and the connecting part 20.

[0061] The transition part 30 can transition force and improve service life.

[0062] In the present embodiment, the transition part 30 is integrally formed with the support arm 10.

[0063] In the present embodiment, the second connecting end 110 is arranged on the transition part 30.

[0064] In other embodiments, the transition part 30 can also be integrally formed with the connecting part 20, and the first connecting end 210 is arranged on the transition part 30.

[0065] In the present embodiment, the support arm 10 is provided with a hollow part 120, which is used to reduce the contact area of the support arm 10 with the user's body and provide a heat dissipation channel.

[0066] During actual exercise, the user is prone to generate heat and sweat. The hollow part 120 can reduce the contact area of the thigh with the support arm 10, increase the heat dissipation surface, reduce sweating, and also facilitate the cleaning and sanitary state of the training equipment.

[0067] In the present embodiment, the hollow part 120 is a first through hole 121, which is arranged at a middle position of the support arm 10.

[0068] In other embodiments, the hollow part 120 can also be a plurality of second through holes arranged uniformly along the support arm 10.

[0069] In the present embodiment, the support arm 10 is a concave support arm, and the concave support arm 10 is used to fit the leg shape of the user to prevent slipping and facilitate force application.

[0070] The specific use method of the pelvic floor muscle trainer provided in the present application includes:

[0071] Place the pelvic floor muscle trainer on the inside of the user's open legs, with the opening of the connecting part 20 facing away from the pelvic floor muscles (i.e., towards the soles of the feet, or away from the body, facing forward). Simultaneously, place both legs against the support arm 10, bring the legs together, and squeeze them towards the center. The legs engage the pelvic floor muscles, and the support arm 10 applies pressure to the opening of the connecting part 20, causing deformation at the opening (i.e., the opening gradually changes from an open state to a closed or near-closed state; it is not a complete compression of the connecting part 20). The squeezing action ends when the legs are brought together. When the leg and pelvic floor muscle engagement is released, the connecting part 20 returns to its natural state (i.e., the opening gradually changes from a closed or near-closed state to an open state). With each deformation of the connecting part 20, the legs repeatedly engage the pelvic floor muscles, thus exercising them.

[0072] In actual use, the arms can also be used instead of the legs to apply pressure to the connecting part 20, so as to achieve a one-stop exercise for the shoulders, arms and back (the pelvic floor muscle trainer is placed behind the back) or shoulders, arms and chest (the pelvic floor muscle trainer is placed in front of the chest).

[0073] Example 2

[0074] like Figure 3 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment, the support arm 10 and the connecting part 20 are integrally formed; or, the transition part 30, the support arm 10 and the connecting part 20 are integrally formed. For ease of production, the transition part 30, the support arm 10 and the connecting part 20 are all plastics, including but not limited to the following plastics: PE, PP, PC, PF, EP, ABS, PA or PMMA.

[0075] The integral molding of the support arm 10 and the connecting part 20 can reduce the types of production molds and further reduce production costs.

[0076] When molding in one piece, all plastics can be selected for injection molding, which is simple and has a low production cost.

[0077] Example 3

[0078] like Figure 4 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment, the hollow part 120 is a first through hole 121 provided in the middle position on the support arm 10 and a plurality of second through holes 122 provided around the first through hole 121. The diameter of the second through holes 122 is smaller than the diameter of the first through hole 121.

[0079] The above merely describes preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the patent protection scope of the present application, and any equivalent structural transformation, direct or indirect application in other related technical fields, are also included in the protection scope of the present application.
