Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional gym equipment does not adequately address the insufficient use of joint and muscle range of motion, leading to negative health consequences, and existing biokinematic training devices require significant space and are not adaptable to individual body proportions.
Innovation Solution
A training device with a base plate, leg support, and adjustable side stands that allow for various exercise positions and adaptations to different body proportions, including a torso-buttocks support and support frame, enabling a range of exercises with reduced space requirements.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If multiple individual training devices are provided for different muscle groups, then comprehensive muscle training capability is improved, but space requirement increases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple training functions for different muscle groups into a single integrated device. The training device includes a base plate with a training surface, leg supports, torso-buttocks supports, and hand supports that can be positioned at multiple locations, allowing comprehensive full-body training without requiring separate devices for each muscle group.
Solution Approach 2:
The training device is designed with universal applicability through multiple adjustable components. The leg supports, torso-buttocks supports, and hand supports can be positioned at various locations on the base plate, enabling the same device to train different muscle groups including leg muscles, trunk muscles, and arm muscles through various exercise positions.
2Adaptability or versatility
If training devices are designed to accommodate different body proportions, then adaptability to individual users is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The training device incorporates dynamic adjustability through multiple positioning options for its components. The leg supports, torso-buttocks supports, and hand supports can be moved to different positions on the base plate, allowing the device to adapt to various body proportions and user requirements without requiring complex mechanical adjustment mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The device is divided into separate functional components (leg supports, torso-buttocks supports, hand supports) that can be independently positioned. This segmentation allows each component to be adjusted to accommodate different body proportions, enabling customization for individual users while maintaining overall device simplicity.

AI summary
The invention relates to a training device (10) for therapeutic and sporting movement exercises, comprising: a base plate (12) having a training surface (14); a leg support (50) extending above the base plate (12) on an end side (16) and along a transverse direction (y) of the base plate (12); two main side stands (24, 26) which extend upwards from the base plate (12) and are secured to same, which are arranged at a distance to one another in the transverse direction (y) of the base plate (12), and which are arranged at a substantially equal distance from the leg support (50) in a longitudinal direction (x) perpendicular to the transverse direction (y) of the base plate (12), wherein a spacing region formed in this way on the base plate (12) is designed as at least one part of the training surface (14); and a torso and buttocks support (44) arranged on the main side stands (24, 26) above the base plate (12) and extending between the main side stands (24, 26), wherein a respective upper receiving means (38, 40) for the torso and buttocks support (44) is arranged on both main side stands (24, 26), having two or a plurality of upper retaining recesses (34, 36) at different upper retaining positions (42), wherein the retaining recesses (34, 36) of the two main side stands (24, 26) are formed in mirror-image, in particular arranged in mirror-image positions, between the main side stands (24, 26) relative to a notional mid-plane.
