Such inversion banks have a frame on which a support for a user is pivotably provided. In order that the user does not fall off the support in a head-over position, such inversion banks have a foot support. A user can thus place himself on the support--either with the back or the abdomen--fix the feet in the foot holder and then swivel them into any desired position, for example from an upright position into a head-up position. Handles are provided laterally for the pivoting, so that the user can automatically change position.For example, DE 20 2006 019 549 U1 discloses a tilt inversion trainer comprising a frame, a table with two side parts on which the user takes place, two hinge parts each with a shaft in the middle for swivellable connection to the frame and a first arm for connection to a side part of said table, wherein the arm allows the table to be at a distance from said shafts of the hinge parts, a device for rotating the hinge parts relative to the frame so as to rotate the table relative to the frame.From EP 3 615 161 B1, for example, a motion simulator driving arrangement is known, comprising: a motion base; and a driver support arrangement positioned below and coupled to the motion base, the driver support arrangement comprising a plurality of driver support units, each driver support unit of the plurality of driver support units comprising: an inversion bench having a surface configured to support a front side of a driver, the inversion bench being configured to rotate about an axis to switch between an entry configuration and a driving configuration, the driving configuration positioning the driver substantially in a front-tilted position in a prone position, and a restraint system configured to secure the driver on the inversion bench, wherein the restraint system comprises a first movable mount and a second movable mount, each coupled to the inversion bench, and wherein the first and second movable mounts are configured to move relative to the surface to move the first and second movable mounts from an unclamped configuration to a clamped configuration; and a display screen configured to project a simulated environment, the display screen positioned below the motion base.Such known inversion banks are provided for support for users for stimulation by change of position but without further stimulation possibilities.DE 100 01 327 A1 discloses a device for spinal column therapy in the form of a couch having a couch mounted resiliently on a frame or frame and having at least one vibration generator for generating a three-dimensional vibration for the couch surface in all three spatial axes running vertically, wherein the vibration generator is provided on the couch surface so as to be adjustable about an axis. By means of a link or a rod, it is achieved that in each inclined position of the couch the feet are arranged vertically or at least approximately vertically.WO 2013 06002 A2 discloses a support device for placing on a neurophysiological stimulation device for transmitting movements generated by the system, wherein said support device comprises at least one support side for placing on the stimulation device and a transmission side for transmitting the movements recorded via the support side, wherein the transmission side has at least one at least partially protruding stimulation element which is suitable for transmitting the movements and thus for neurophysiological stimulation. Furthermore, a neurophysiological stimulation device for stimulating an object by means of transmitting movements generated by the stimulation device is known, which comprises at least one movement unit and at least one drive unit coupled to the movement unit for generating the movement, wherein the drive unit is designed as a tumbling and / or whirling unit which generates a tumbling and / or whirling movement.From DE 20 2006 019 549 U1 a tilt inversion trainer is known, comprising: a frame; a table with two side parts on which the user takes place; two hinge parts each with a shaft in the middle for swivellable connection to the frame and a first arm for connection to a side part of said table, wherein the arm allows the table to be at a distance from said shafts of the hinge parts; a device for rotating the hinge parts relative to the frame so as to rotate the table relative to the frame.It is an object of the present invention to provide an inversion stimulation device with which further stimulations can be transmitted to a user using the stimulation of an inversion bank.These and other objects are achieved starting from an inversion stimulation device according to claim 1. Advantageous further developments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.The invention includes the technical teaching that in an inversion stimulation device, in particular an inversion stimulation device for transmitting a vibration frequency to a user, comprising an adjustable inversion pendulum device, wherein the inversion pendulum device has a foot holder with which the feet of a user of the inversion stimulation device can be held in order to enable an overhead position of the user by means of the inversion stimulation device without the user being unintentionally moved away from the inversion stimulation device, it is provided that a stimulation device for generating and / or transmitting a three-dimensional vibration is arranged on the inversion pendulum device, such that the stimulation device can be brought into different positions via an adjustment of the inversion pendulum device, wherein the vibration device is designed as a vibration plate for generating a three-dimensional vibration, which has a bearing plate which is driven via a drive device arranged in a base body, wherein the stimulation device has a load compensation device with which loads acting on the stimulation device, the inversion pendulum device and / or a user can be compensated on account of the different positions, wherein the load compensation devices are designed as a compensation bearing device which compensates additional loads on the stimulation device when the inversion pendulum device is adjusted, wherein the compensation bearing device has at least one pot-shaped bearing unit and at least one abutment unit interacting with the bearing unit. The stimulation device is designed as a vibration plate. In particular, the vibration plate is designed as a vibration plate for generating a three-dimensional vibration, more precisely a Schumann vibration. For this purpose, the vibration plate has a bearing plate which is driven by a drive device arranged in a base body. The bearing plate is arranged at a distance from the base body, so that a gap is formed between the bearing plate and the base body. The drive device is designed as an eccentric drive device and is connected to the bearing plate in such a way that a two-dimensional oscillation is initially formed in the plane of the plate. In the intermediate space between the bearing plate and the base body, attachment elements, for example in the form of rubber buffers, are arranged. In the case of a drive with the drive device, these are temporarily in contact with a side of the bearing plate assigned to the base body. This results in a three-dimensional oscillation due to the temporary contact between the attachment element(s) and the support plate. By contacting the plate and the attachment elements, a further force acts on the basically two-dimensional oscillation, which then generates the three-dimensional oscillation. The attachment elements are preferably of different design. In this way, a specific force effect on the two-dimensional oscillation can be effected. In this case, the upper sides of the attachment elements, which face the bearing plate, are at a different distance from the base body. Alternatively, the edge of the base body on which the attachment elements are arranged can be formed at different distances along the circumference from the underside of the bearing plate. The stimulation device is fastened to the inversion pendulum device with the base body. Thus, a user can lie on the support plate and can be brought into different positions via an adjustment of the inversion pendulum device.In one embodiment, it is additionally or alternatively provided that the inversion pendulum device has at least one load compensation device, with which loads acting on the stimulation devices can be compensated on account of the different positions. The stimulation device in the form of the oscillation device for generating three-dimensional oscillations is originally designed for use on a fixed ground without inclination adjustment. In order that the oscillation can also take place at various slopes as desired, a load compensation device is provided. The load compensation device compensates the load on the vibration device occurring due to the inclination adjustment and in particular on the components required for generating the three-dimensional vibration, such as the drive device and attachment elements. This realizes a longer lifetime of the stimulation device. The load compensation device can be designed in any desired manner, provided that the compensating effect is realized. For example, the load compensation device can comprise springs, reinforcing elements, inclination adjustment elements, in particular on the drive device and attachment elements, elastic buffers, foams, rubber elements and the like. The load compensation device is also designed for the additional loads of a user. Thus, the user of the inversion stimulation device is loaded more strongly by the inclination adjustment than without inclination adjustment. In order to absorb these additional forces and thus to effect a compensation, the load compensation device comprises, in addition to the means for reducing the load on the vibration-generating components, also means for reducing the load on the user.Thus, in an embodiment, it is additionally or alternatively provided that at least one of the at least one load compensation devices is designed as a headrest, onto which a lying user can place his head. The headrest is provided as an extension of the vibration plate. This can be fastened, in particular also detachably and / or adjustably, to the oscillation device or generally to the stimulation device or to the inversion pendulum device. The inversion pendulum device comprises a frame which has a type of pendulum with which the stimulation device can be moved into different inclination positions. The headrest can be optimally adjusted for users of different sizes. The headrest can be attached in particular to the stimulation device or the inversion pendulum device in such a way that it forms an extension of the upper side of the vibration plate or bearing plate, i.e. is aligned approximately flush with the bearing plate. In addition, cushions can be provided which, for example, additionally support the head. The headrest and the stimulation device or the inversion pendulum device are designed such that the headrest can be attached to the stimulation device or the inversion pendulum device at different points, in particular opposite. Corresponding recordings are provided on the stimulation device or the inversion pendulum device. In order that the headrest does not unintentionally adjust, a securing mechanism is provided which locks the headrest in the desired position.It is also provided that alternatively or additionally the compensation bearing device is arranged on the stimulation device between the underside of the vibration plate and the base body. At least one of the at least one load compensation devices is designed as a compensation bearing device which compensates additional loads on the stimulation device when the inversion pendulum device is adjusted. This load compensation device is arranged on the stimulation device, preferably between the underside of the vibration plate and the base body. This load compensation device may comprise a mechanical element, such as rubber buffers, spring elements and the like, magnetic elements, for example in the form of mutually repulsive magnetic elements, or adjusting elements. These are arranged accordingly on the base body and / or the bearing plate.An embodiment of the load compensation device alternatively or additionally provides that, in the event of a greater load on the vibration plate, in particular due to shear forces or transverse forces, the abutment unit contacts the bearing unit, more precisely a column end, the inner side of the abutment unit, and the additional loads are absorbed by the bearing unit and the abutment unit. The compensating bearing device has at least one pot-shaped bearing unit and at least one abutment unit interacting with the bearing unit. The bearing unit is of pot-shaped design with a base and a side wall over its full circumference protruding from its edge. The side wall has a coating on the inside, which dampens forces arising in the event of contact with the abutment unit projecting into the inside. The bearing unit is arranged on the base body, spaced apart from the vibration plate. The bearing unit is configured for cooperation with the abutment unit. The bearing unit has a column part projecting into the (counter) bearing surfaces. This column unit is disposed on the base plate. The end of the column unit remote from the base plate is designed for contacting with the inner side of the bearing unit. For this purpose, a roller or another rotatable element can be arranged at the end of the column unit. If the vibration plate is now subjected to a greater load, in particular due to shear forces or transverse forces, the abutment unit contacts the bearing unit, more precisely the column end contacts the inner side of the abutment unit, and the additional loads are absorbed by the bearing unit and the abutment unit. Other designs of the bearing unit and abutment unit are provided. For example, the bearing unit and the abutment unit can comprise repulsive magnets which approach one another in the event of additional load and which cushion the additional force due to the repulsive magnetic forces. Combinations thereof are also conceivable.In addition, in one embodiment, it is alternatively or additionally provided that the inversion pendulum device has at least one lateral grab handle, wherein the at least one lateral grab handle is designed to be adjustable, in particular pivotable, relative to the inversion pendulum device. By means of the handle, a person located on the vibration plate or a user can move himself into a different inclination position. The handle can be provided additionally or alternatively to an actuator. The inversion pendulum device can be adjusted via the handle and / or the adjusting actuator, in particular adjustable with respect to the inclination. The inclination adjustment automatically also carries out an inclination adjustment of the stimulation device and thus also of the user located on the stimulation device. The inversion stimulation device may also be used to aid in therapeutic treatments. For example, a physical therapist can treat a user located on the inversion stimulation device. In order that the treatment by the physical therapist can take place without adverse effects, the handle is arranged in particular adjustably, preferably fold away, on the inversion pendulum device. The connection of the handle and the further inversion pendulum device is effected via a joint, in particular a pivot or swivel joint. The connection is in particular designed to be releasable, so that the handle can also be completely removed from the inversion pendulum device.Furthermore, in one embodiment, it is alternatively or additionally provided that the inversion pendulum device and / or the stimulation device has a thermal unit in order to emit thermal energy to a user. An additional thermal unit is also appropriate especially for therapeutic purposes. The thermal unit can be formed integrated on the inversion pendulum device and / or on the stimulation device, for example in the vibration plate. For example, heat radiators, cooling compartments or the like can be provided. An infrared heat radiator is also advantageous.According to the invention, it is provided that the inversion pendulum device has a foot holder with which the feet of a user of the inversion stimulation device can be held in order to enable an overhead position of the user by means of the inversion stimulation device without the user being unintentionally moved away from the inversion stimulation device, wherein the foot holder is preferably adjustable, in particular pivotable and / or rotatable, relative to the inversion pendulum device. The foot holder provides in particular clamping means for clamping the feet of a user. The foot holder is detachably connected to the inversion pendulum device and / or the stimulation device. For load compensation, the foot holder is provided with sufficient padding. For different users, the foot holder can be adjusted, in particular with regard to the position relative to the vibration plate. For transport, the foot holder is detachably connected to the inversion pendulum device and / or the stimulation device, so that the latter can be transported separately from the other components. When fastened to the inversion pendulum device and / or the stimulation device, the foot holder can be adjusted, in particular also pivoted, via a suitable coupling. Corresponding articulated connections are provided for this purpose.Alternatively or additionally, an embodiment provides that the inversion pendulum device has a receptacle for the stimulation device in order to fasten the stimulation device to the inversion pendulum device, wherein the receptacle is designed to be adjustable in order to adjust the stimulation device in a manner coordinated with a user of the inversion stimulation device. By means of a recording, different stimulation devices can be arranged on the inversion pendulum device. Especially also for a separate transport, the receptacle is designed for a detachable connection for the stimulation device. Since the stimulation device is made heavier and / or bulky than a pure bearing plate and in particular also requires an energy supply, the receptacle is made correspondingly. In particular, the receptacle can have an energy supply interface for the stimulation device. In addition, the receptacle is equipped in such a way that the stimulation device is arranged on the inversion pendulum device in a safe and adjustable manner. For this purpose, corresponding reinforcements and / or force absorptions are provided.It is also alternatively or additionally provided in an embodiment that the inversion stimulation device has a rocking function. The rocker function is realized by elastic and / or reversible elements or damping elements such as spring elements, magnets, cushions, stops or adjusting elements. In order to maintain a set tilt position, the inversion pendulum device has a tilt latch. This allows a set position to be locked. The locking is effected by means of servomotors, bolt-bore pairings or the like. The locking is effected in such a way that the locking can allow a certain movement tolerance. The movement tolerance can be realized by means of the aforementioned elastic and / or reversible or damping elements. These can be designed as stops. For example, the stop, which delimits an inclination position in at least one direction, can be designed to be elastic, resilient and / or reversible. In the end position, the user can then carry out a rocking movement with the stimulation device within the scope of the flexibility of the respective element, which rocking movement ensures a further stimulation in addition to the three-dimensional oscillation of the stimulation device. The rocker function can also be realized in intermediate positions, wherein the elastic, resilient and / or reversible elements / damping elements are then formed on the inclination lock, for example in the bore for receiving a bolt or pin. The rocker function can be eliminated, for example by providing blocking elements. These can optionally be provided if the user does not wish a luffing function. To maintain the desired tilt position, with or without a luffing function, the inversion pendulum device has one or more tilt locks. These can be designed as a continuously variable or stepped inclination locking mechanism. A stepped inclination locking system has a plug locking system, for example by means of a bolt-bore pairing. The plug-in locking mechanism has, for example, a plate with bores into which a pressure bolt or pin can be inserted. The bores are arranged spaced apart from one another. Depending on the inclination, the pin is inserted into the corresponding bore and thus locks the inclination setting. Preferably, two inclination locks are provided, so that a securing is realized if an inclination lock should fail. The bolt-bore pairing can be formed via corresponding damping elements with a fit tolerance, which enables a luffing function.Not least, an embodiment alternatively or additionally provides that at least one actuator is provided for adjusting the inversion pendulum device and / or the stimulation device, in particular for changing the position of the inversion pendulum device and / or the stimulation device. The actuators can be designed as any actuators, for example as servomotors, magnets, electric drives, springs, adjusting screws, arresting devices, plug connections and the like.Further measures which improve the invention are specified in the dependent claims or are evident from the description of exemplary embodiments of the invention.

FIG. 8 shows schematically in another perspective view the embodiment according to FIG. 1 in another inclination position.The inversion stimulation device 10 is designed as an inversion stimulation device 10 for transmitting a vibration frequency to a user. The user is shown in the figures. Not shown. The inversion stimulation device comprises an adjustable inversion pendulum device 20 and a stimulation device 30 arranged thereon for generating and / or transmitting an oscillation, in particular a three-dimensional oscillation. The stimulation device 30 is arranged on inversion pendulum device 10 in such a way that it can be brought into different positions, in particular slopes or inclination positions, by means of an adjustment of inversion pendulum device 10, as shown in the figures.The stimulation device 30 is designed as a vibration plate 31. In particular, the vibration plate 31 is formed as a vibration plate 31 for generating a three-dimensional vibration, more specifically a Schumann vibration. For this purpose, the vibration plate 31 has a bearing plate 32 which is driven by a drive device (not shown) arranged in a base body 33. The support plate 31 is arranged spaced apart from the base body 33, so that a gap is formed between the vibration plate and the base body. The drive device is designed as an eccentric drive device and is connected to the bearing plate 32 in such a way that a two-dimensional oscillation is initially formed in the plane of the plate 32. In the intermediate space between the bearing plate 32 and the base body 33, attachment elements (not shown here) are arranged, for example in the form of rubber buffers. In a drive with the drive device, these are temporarily in contact with a side of the bearing plate 32 assigned to the base body 33, which produces a three-dimensional oscillation due to the temporary contact between the attachment element(s) and the bearing plate 32. The attachment elements are preferably of different design. In this way, a specific force effect on the two-dimensional oscillation can be effected. The upper sides of the attachment elements facing the bearing plate are at a different distance from the base body 33. Alternatively, the edge of the base body 33, on which the attachment elements are arranged, can be formed at a different distance from the lower side of the bearing plate along the circumference. The stimulation device 30 is fastened to the inversion pendulum device 20 by the base body 33. Thus, a user can lie on the support plate 32 and can be brought into different positions via an adjustment of the inversion pendulum device 20.To maintain the stimulation device 30 in a desired tilt position, the inversion pendulum device 20 includes one or more tilt latches 190. These can be formed as a continuously variable or stepped inclination locking 190. In FIG. 2, a stepped rake latch 190 is shown. This has a plug-in locking mechanism. The locking device comprises a plate 191 with bores 192, into which a pressure bolt or pin 193 can be inserted. The bores 192 are arranged spaced apart from one another. Depending on the inclination, the pin 193 is inserted into the corresponding bore >192 and thus locks the inclination setting. Preferably, two inclination locks 190 are provided, so that a securing is realized if an inclination lock 190 should fail. For example, FIG. 3 illustrates a different inclination than FIG. 1, wherein the inclination is fixed by the corresponding inclination lock 190.In order to bring the inversion pendulum device 20 into an inclined position, different means are conceivable. In the illustrated embodiment, the inclination is set manually by the user. For this purpose, the inversion pendulum device 20 has two lateral handles 150. The handles 150 are designed to be adjustable, in particular pivotable, relative to the inversion pendulum device 20, so that an adjustment can be made to fit the user for the respective use. The handles 150 are shown in an operating position for the user.In order that the user does not fall from the stimulation device 30 in a head-over position, as is illustrated by way of example in FIG. 3, the inversion pendulum device 20 has a foot holder 130. The feet of a user can be held in the inversion stimulation device 10 with the foot holder 130, so that an overhead position of the user can easily be realized by means of the inversion stimulation device 10 without the user being unintentionally moved away from the inversion stimulation device 10. The foot holder 130 is adjustable relative to the inversion pendulum device 20, in particular pivotable and / or rotatable, so that an adjustment can be made depending on the user.The inversion pendulum device 20 has a receptacle 110 for the stimulation device 30 in order to securely fasten the stimulation device 30 to the inversion pendulum device 20. The receptacle 110 comprises a carrier rod 111 on which the stimulation device 30 rests. To enlarge the bearing surface for the stimulation device 30, side arms protrude from the carrier rod 111. In order to adapt the stimulation device 30 to a user, the latter has a groove (not shown here) adapted to the carrier rod 111. Along this groove, the stimulation device 30 can be moved along the carrier rod 111. A clamping 112, for example realized by hand screws 113, can be used to achieve a longitudinal locking of the stimulation device on the carrier rod 111. In this way, the receptacle 110 is designed to be adjustable in order to adjust the stimulation device in a manner coordinated with a user of the inversion stimulation device 10.The stimulation device and / or the inversion pendulum device have at least one load compensation device 120, with which loads acting on the stimulation devices 30 and / or users lying thereon can be compensated on account of the different positions or slopes. FIG. 8 shows a headrest 121 arranged on the stimulation device 30. The user can place his head on this, so that a relief can be realized at different slopes. The headrest is detachably connected to the stimulation device 30. If necessary, the headrest 121 can be removed and transported or stored separately. A further load compensation device 120 is shown in FIG. 8 in the region of the foot holder 130. The load compensation device 120 provided there is designed as a stop 123. This limits a tilt adjustment, so that the inversion pendulum device cannot perform a rollover. The stop 123 has a damping function, which can be realized, for example, by a rubber buffer, a spring, an air cushion, a foam buffer or the like. Another stress compensator 120 is provided at a foot 25 of the inversion pendulum 20. A load compensation device 120 is provided there, which also functions as a transport aid and which is designed here as rubber-covered wheels 125. Due to the rubberized wheels, a total load on the respective foot of the inversion pendulum device 20 is reduced.In FIG. 7, some of the adjustment possibilities of the inversion stimulation device 10 are represented by arrows. Thus, in addition to the inclination adjustment--represented by the arc arrows--an adjustment of the stimulation device 30--represented by the approximately horizontal arrows--can also be carried out.It is understood that the aforementioned features of the invention can be used not only in the respectively specified combination, but also in other combinations or alone, without departing from the scope of the invention.List of reference characters10 Inversion stimulation device 20 Inversion pendulum device 30 Stimulation device 31 Vibration plate 32 Support plate 33 Base body 110 Receptacle 111 Carrier rod 112 Side arms 113 Hand screws 120 Load compensation device 121 Headrest 125 Rubber-covered wheels 130 Foot holder 150 Handle 190 Inclination lock 191 Plate 192 Bore 193 Pin
