Furthermore, in the following description, well-known structures and technologies are not discussed to prevent unnecessary confusion regarding the concept of the application.

[0050] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, A pull-up training device, comprising a bracket 1; wherein the bracket 1 is provided with a horizontal bar assembly 2; wherein the bracket 1 is provided with an auxiliary device 3 to reduce the difficulty of the pull-up movement, and the auxiliary device 3 is located directly below the horizontal bar assembly 2.

[0051] As shown in FIGS. 1-3, the auxiliary device 3 comprises a vertical rod 31 fixed on the bracket 1, the upper end of the vertical rod 31 is connected to the bracket 1, the vertical rod 31 is provided with a mounting seat 33 that can move back and forth along the vertical rod 31, the mounting seat 33 is provided with a cushion 34, the mounting seat 33 is connected with a connecting rope 35, the other end of the connecting rope 35 is provided with an elastic member 36, and the elastic member 36 is fixed to the bracket 1. When in use, a heavy object is placed on cushion 34, so that the mounting seat 33 and cushion 34 move downward along the vertical rod 31 together, and then with the resilience of the elastic member 36, the mounting seat 33 and the cushion 34 move upward along the vertical rod 31 to recover, and this cycle is repeated, so that the mounting seat 33 and the cushion 34 can move back and forth along the vertical rod 31. In the embodiment of the application, two vertical rods 31 are used, and the two vertical rods 31 are distributed on bracket 1 corresponding to each other. A mounting seat 33 is arranged between the two vertical rods 31, and the upper end of each vertical rod 31 is connected to the bracket 1 through a fixed pulley 32. A cushion 34 is arranged on the mounting seat 33, and two connecting ropes 35 are connected to the mounting seat 33. The connection 35 passes through the corresponding fixed pulley 32, and the other end of the connecting rope 35 is provided with an elastic member 36, and the elastic member 36 is fixed on the bracket 1. This setting structure is more stable and improves the safety of use.

[0052] As shown in FIGS. 1-3, the elastic member 36 is an elastic rope or a spring (explosion-proof springs are preferred among the springs, which have good pressure resistance and explosion-proof capabilities and are more secure), etc. Further, one end of the connecting rope 35 is connected to the mounting seat 33 through a first buckle 37, and correspondingly, the other end of the connecting rope 35 is connected to one end of the elastic member 36 through a second buckle 38, and the other end of the elastic member 36 is connected to the bracket 1 through a third buckle 39. This arrangement is convenient for installation and disassembly and for later maintenance. It is also worth noting that a ball cap 351 is provided on the connecting rope 35 at the position of the first buckle 37. On the one hand, the ball cap 351 is more conducive to the smooth operation of the mounting seat 33 driven by the connecting rope 35 and is more conducive to meeting the use requirements.

[0053] As shown in FIGS. 1-2, the cross-section of the mounting seat 33 is H-shaped, which, on the one hand, makes it easier to fit on the two vertical rod 31, and on the other hand, is also conducive to installing a cushion 34 on the mounting seat 33, so that it is easy to move back and forth along the vertical rod 31, making it more convenient to use.

[0054] As shown in FIGS. 1-2, the bracket 1 includes column component 11 that are distributed opposite to each other. The upper part of column assembly 11 is connected through horizontal bar assembly 2, and the upper part of column assembly 11 is in an arc shape. This arrangement is more conducive to the installation of the horizontal bar assembly 2, thereby forming a characteristic that is more in line with the pull-up movement. The lower end surface of the column assembly 11 is provided with a base 12, and the base 12 is used to more firmly contact the ground. A reinforcing rod 13 for mutual connection is provided between the two column component 11, and a fixed rod 14 for fixing the auxiliary device 3 is provided on the column assembly 11. The end surface of the fixed rod 14 is arranged downward in an arc shape, which is more conducive to the hand support of the human hand and more humanized. The parts of the application can be connected by bolts or rivets. Since the standard parts used in this application document can be purchased from the market, the specific connection method of each part adopts conventional means such as mature bolts and rivets in the prior art, and no specific description is made here.

[0055] As shown in FIG. 2, the horizontal bar assembly 2 of the application adopts two cross beams, and the middle of the two cross beams is connected by a locking rod, which further improves the stability of the horizontal bar assembly 2.

[0056] As shown in FIGS. 1-3, when in use, one only needs to hold the horizontal bar assembly 2 with his hands, and then put his legs on the seat cushion 34. Due to the weight of the body, the elastic member 36 will be compressed, and the mounting seat 33 and the seat cushion 34 will move downward along the vertical rod 31. At the same time, since the hand holds the horizontal bar assembly 2 when moving upward, the elastic member 36 will have a rebound force, which is more conducive to the user to do pull-ups, greatly reduces the pull-ups that rely solely on the arms, reduces the load of exercise, and is more convenient for exercise.
