Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of elastic band technology, specifically an elastic band training device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most elastic band products on the market are made of a single elastic material, or are assembled by stitching or bonding the elastic part to components such as the handle. This traditional structure has significant drawbacks: stress concentration at the joints easily leads to breakage, resulting in poor product durability; traditional manufacturing processes are cumbersome, making it difficult to achieve flexible functional integration while ensuring structural strength, thus hindering product performance improvement and diversification. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an elastic band training device.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model employs the following technical solution: This utility model provides an elastic band training device, including an integrally woven band body. The band body includes at least a first webbing segment, a first grip segment, a second webbing segment, an elastic band segment, and a third webbing segment connected in sequence along its length direction. The first webbing segment and the second webbing segment are sewn together so that the first grip segment is constructed into a ring-shaped first grip portion.

[0005] In some embodiments, the third webbing segment is provided as a connector for connecting to an external support structure.

[0006] Furthermore, the connector is a climbing hook, hook, buckle, or Velcro.

[0007] In other embodiments, the end of the third webbing segment away from the elastic band segment is connected to a second grip segment, and the end of the second grip segment away from the third webbing segment is connected to a fourth webbing segment. The third webbing segment, the second grip segment, and the fourth webbing segment are integrally woven and stitched together, so that the second grip segment is constructed as a ring-shaped second grip portion.

[0008] Furthermore, the first, second, third, and fourth webbing segments are independently woven into elastic or non-elastic structures, and are independently woven into equal-width or wide-narrow webbing.

[0009] Furthermore, the first and second grip segments, which are integrally woven, are independently woven into solid or hollow structures, with the hollow structure filled with filler material.

[0010] Furthermore, the filler is one or more of yarn, foam, and plastic tube.

[0011] Furthermore, the belt body is woven from elastic bands, warp yarns, and weft yarns, and the elongation rate of the elastic bands is greater than that of the warp yarns; the elastic band segment is woven from the elastic bands, the warp yarns, and the weft yarns.

[0012] Furthermore, the elastic bands of the first and second grip sections are exposed outside the solid or hollow structure woven from the warp and weft yarns; when the first or second grip section is a solid structure, a portion of the warp yarns are wrapped inside the webbing woven from the remaining warp and weft yarns as a core to form a solid structure; when the first or second grip section is a hollow structure, the hollow webbing woven from the warp and weft yarns has a hollow structure, and the filling material is filled inside the hollow structure of the hollow webbing.

[0013] Furthermore, when the first, second, third, and fourth webbing segments are elastic structures, the elastic band is encased inside the webbing woven from the warp and weft yarns as a core; when the first, second, third, and fourth webbing segments are non-elastic structures, the elastic band is exposed outside the webbing woven from the warp and weft yarns.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: This invention combines integrated weaving and partial stitching processes to ensure the overall structural strength of the elastic band trainer while achieving rapid and precise forming of the grip. The production process is simple, efficient, and cost-effective. Furthermore, the integrated weaving ensures that each section of the product has a clear function, smooth connection, and better durability, providing users with a stable, comfortable, and convenient training experience.

[0015] This invention greatly expands the application scenarios and functionality of the elastic band trainer by setting a connector in the third webbing section. Users can easily fix the trainer to external supports such as door frames, railings, or fitness equipment with the help of connecting parts such as climbing hooks and buckles, and can achieve tension training at multiple angles. This convenient and stable connection method not only enriches the training movement library and meets the diversified needs of strength training, rehabilitation exercises, etc., but also makes the product storage and installation more flexible, significantly improving the convenience of use and training efficiency.

[0016] This invention can also be configured as an elastic band trainer with two gripping parts, allowing users to directly grip it with both hands to perform various pushing, pulling, and stretching exercises without needing to find external fixing points. This makes the training movements more diverse and is especially suitable for full-body exercises that require simultaneous exertion on both sides. This structure greatly improves the practicality and convenience of the elastic band trainer, allowing users to start training anytime, anywhere. Moreover, the one-piece molded structure ensures the overall product's sturdiness and durability, providing a balanced and comfortable training experience. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same reference numerals in the drawings represent the same components. It should be noted that the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0029] Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used herein shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terms "comprising" and similar expressions used in this utility model specification and claims mean that the element or object preceding the word encompasses the element or object listed following the word and its equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects. Terms such as "connection" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections and can be direct or indirect.

[0030] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides an elastic band training device, including an integrally woven band body. The band body includes at least a first webbing segment 1, a first grip segment 2, a second webbing segment 3, an elastic band segment 4, and a third webbing segment 5 connected in sequence along its length direction. The first webbing segment 1 and the second webbing segment 3 are sewn together so that the first grip segment 2 forms a ring-shaped first grip portion.

[0031] Specifically, the first webbing segment 1, the second webbing segment 3, and the third webbing segment 5 can be independently woven into an elastic or non-elastic structure, or independently woven into a uniform width webbing 31 or a wide-narrow webbing 32. For example, the width of the wide-narrow webbing 32 gradually increases from the center to both ends. Preferably, the first webbing segment 1 and the second webbing segment 3 have the same structure and the same length. The first grip segment 2 can be woven into a solid structure 21 or a hollow structure 22, with the hollow structure 22 filled with a filler material 23. For example, the filler material 23 is one or more of yarn, foam, and plastic tubing. The elastic band segment 4 can extend under tension and retract after the tension is removed to achieve stretching training. For example, the elastic band segment 4 can be a pleated elastic band.

[0032] In this utility model, the belt body is first woven into shape using a wide and narrow belt machine (e.g., Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown in the diagram, the first webbing segment 1 and the second webbing segment 3 are then sewn together, forming the first grip segment 2 into a ring-shaped first holding part. The third webbing segment 5 can be connected to the external support structure, thus enabling the band to function as an elastic band trainer with a grip. This invention combines integrated weaving and partial sewing processes, ensuring the overall structural strength of the elastic band trainer while achieving rapid and precise forming of the grip. The design features simple production steps, high production efficiency, and low manufacturing costs. Furthermore, the integrated weaving ensures clear functions for each segment, smooth connections, and enhanced durability, providing users with a stable, comfortable, and convenient training experience.

[0033] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the third webbing segment 5 is provided with a connector 6 for connecting to an external support structure. For example, the connector 6 is a carabiner, hook, fastener, or Velcro. Specifically, if the connector 6 is Velcro, the hook and loop sides of the Velcro can be sewn onto the surface of the third webbing segment 5 using a sewing machine; if the connector 6 is a carabiner, hook, fastener, etc., the third webbing segment 5 can be passed through the carabiner, hook, fastener, etc. connector 6, folded in half, and sewn together to fix the connector 6 to the third webbing segment 5.

[0034] In this embodiment, by setting a connector 6 on the third webbing segment 5, the application scenarios and functionality of the elastic band trainer are greatly expanded. Users can easily fix the trainer to external supports such as door frames, railings or fitness equipment with the help of connectors 6 such as climbing hooks and buckles, thereby freeing up one hand or realizing tension training at multiple angles. This convenient and stable connection method not only enriches the training movement library and meets the diversified needs of strength training, rehabilitation exercises, etc., but also makes the product storage and installation more flexible, significantly improving the convenience of use and training efficiency.

[0035] In another embodiment, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the end of the third webbing segment 5 away from the elastic band segment 4 is connected to the second grip segment 7, and the end of the second grip segment 7 away from the third webbing segment 5 is connected to the fourth webbing segment 8. The third webbing segment 5, the second grip segment 7, and the fourth webbing segment 8 are woven together and stitched together, so that the second grip segment 7 is constructed into a ring-shaped second grip portion.

[0036] In this embodiment, the entire belt is woven in one piece using a wide and narrow belt machine (e.g., Figure 3As shown, the webbing segments at both ends of the first grip section 2 and the second grip section 7 are sewn together to form an elastic band trainer with two grips. Users do not need to find external fixing points, but can directly hold it with both hands to perform various pushing, pulling, and stretching exercises, making the training movements more diverse. It is especially suitable for full-body exercises that require simultaneous exertion on both sides. This structure greatly improves the practicality and convenience of the elastic band trainer, allowing users to start training anytime and anywhere. Moreover, the one-piece molded structure ensures the overall product's sturdiness and durability, providing a balanced and comfortable training experience.

[0037] In some embodiments, the first webbing segment 1, the second webbing segment 3, the third webbing segment 5, and the fourth webbing segment 8 are independently woven into an elastic or inelastic structure, and are independently woven into a uniform width webbing 31 or a wide-narrow webbing 32. For example, the width of the wide-narrow webbing 32 gradually increases from the center to both ends. Preferably, the first webbing segment 1 and the second webbing segment 3 have the same structure and the same length; the third webbing segment 5 and the fourth webbing segment 8 have the same structure and the same length; or all webbing segments have the same structure and length.

[0038] In this embodiment, the configurability of the elasticity and width of each webbing segment enables precise control over the overall mechanical properties and functionality of the resistance band. By setting specific webbing segments as elastic or inelastic structures, the force transmission path during training can be precisely controlled: elastic webbing segments provide additional stretching cushioning and range of motion, suitable for flexibility and explosive power training; while inelastic webbing segments ensure accurate and stable force transmission, making them more suitable for force training requiring a fixed trajectory. Simultaneously, the use of equal-width or wide-narrow webbing segments optimizes the structure; equal-width webbing 31 is easy to manufacture and provides uniform stress distribution; while webbing with varying widths effectively avoids stress concentration.

[0039] In some embodiments, the first grip segment 2 and the second grip segment 7, which are integrally woven, are independently woven as a solid structure 21 or a hollow structure 22, with the hollow structure 22 filled with a filler 23. For example, the filler 23 is one or more of yarn, foam, and plastic tubing, providing a comfortable grip. Specifically, a hollow needle can be inserted into the hollow structure 22, and then yarn can be filled into the hollow channel of the hollow structure 22 through the hollow needle. Finally, the two layers of webbing segments need to be connected by a sewing machine. Alternatively, an opening can be cut at the connection point between the grip segment and the webbing segment, a suitable length of plastic tubing or foam can be inserted, the opening can be sewn closed, and the segments can be connected by a sewing machine to form a webbing segment.

[0040] In this embodiment, the grip section can be woven into either a solid or a filled hollow structure 22 as needed, achieving refined customization of the feel and function of the grip area. The solid structure 21 provides a firm and stable grip, while the hollow structure 22, filled with different materials such as yarn, foam, or plastic tubing, can create a variety of feel ranging from soft and elastic to flexible and supportive, precisely meeting the differentiated needs of users from rehabilitation training to high-intensity fitness. Both hollow needle injection filling and slit-insertion filling methods can efficiently connect with the integrally woven body, ensuring the uniformity and stability of the internal filling 23 of the grip, while the final stitching ensures the integrity and durability of the structure.

[0041] In some embodiments, the belt is woven from elastic bands 11, warp yarns 12 and weft yarns. The elongation rate of the elastic bands 11 is greater than that of the warp yarns 12. The number and width of the elastic bands 11 can be adjusted as needed.

[0042] The elastic band segment 4 is woven from the elastic band 11, the warp yarns 12, and the warp yarns. For example, the elastic band 11 is only arranged within one layer of warp yarns 12 (the length direction of the warp yarns 12 is the length direction of the band body). A certain tension is applied during weaving, and after weaving, the elastic band 11 retracts, causing the woven elastic band segment 4 to have a pleated structure, i.e., woven as shown... Figure 1-5 The elastic band shown is a pleated band.

[0043] The elastic bands 11 of the first grip section 2 and the second grip section 7 are exposed outside the solid structure 21 or hollow structure 22 woven from the warp yarns 12 and the weft yarns. After the belt body is woven, the exposed elastic bands 11 can be cut off. When the first grip section 2 or the second grip section 7 is a solid structure 21, part of the warp yarns 12 are wrapped inside the webbing woven from the remaining warp yarns 12 and the weft yarns to form a solid structure 21. When the first grip section 2 or the second grip section 7 is a hollow structure 22, the hollow webbing woven from the warp yarns 12 and the weft yarns has a hollow structure, and the filling material 23 is filled inside the hollow structure of the hollow webbing.

[0044] When the first webbing segment 1, the second webbing segment 3, the third webbing segment 5, and the fourth webbing segment 8 are elastic structures, such as Figure 7 As shown, the elastic band 11 is encased as a core within the webbing formed by the warp yarns 12 and the weft yarns. The elastic band 11 can be arranged within two layers of warp yarns 12 for weaving, i.e., it can be woven using the weaving process of elastic bands. When the first webbing segment 1, the second webbing segment 3, the third webbing segment 5, and the fourth webbing segment 8 are non-elastic structures, such as... Figure 6As shown, the elastic band 11 is exposed outside the webbing woven from the warp yarn 12 and the weft yarn. After the webbing is completed, the exposed elastic band 11 can be cut off.

[0045] In this embodiment, by precisely controlling the position of the elastic band 11 in the woven structure (the elastic band segment 4 participates in the weaving as warp yarn, the grip segment is exposed to the outside for easy cutting, and the webbing segment is either covered as warp yarn core or exposed outside the webbing), the physical properties of the elastic band segment 4, the grip segment, and each webbing segment are precisely customized under the premise of integrated weaving. The elastic band segment 4 obtains high elasticity because the elastic band 11 directly participates in the weaving, ensuring the core training function; the grip segment eliminates elasticity by exposing the elastic band 11 and combining it with a densely woven solid or hollow structure 22, forming a stable and comfortable rigid grip; and the elasticity of each connecting webbing segment can be flexibly designed, achieving multiple functions from rigid connection to elastic transition by covering the elastic band 11 inside or excluding it. While ensuring the overall structure is seamless and robust, the product's professionalism, durability, and user experience are greatly improved.

[0046] Those skilled in the art should understand that the specific embodiments described above are merely examples and not limitations. Various modifications, combinations, partial combinations, and substitutions can be made to the embodiments of this utility model according to design requirements and other factors, as long as they are within the scope of the appended claims or their equivalents, and thus fall within the scope of the rights to be protected by this utility model.
