DEVICE FOR BALANCE EXERCISES AND BALANCE GAMES USING VARIABLE RESTORING FORCES

WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/006643

A3

The invention relates to a device for balance exercises and balance games (a so-called balance board) using variable restoring forces. The support part (10) for the body of the user can be tilted on a base part (30) about a longitudinal axis X and a transverse axis Y, is freely rotatable about a vertical axis Z and is mounted in a moveable manner along said vertical axis Z. A restoring device (20) creates restoring forces that counteract the movements of the support part (10) and can be varied by the user. The restoring device (20) comprises 4 elastomeric springs (22b and 22c) arranged parallel to the longitudinal axis X and the transverse axis Y. Elastomeric springs having different spring forces can be used by replacing the elastomeric springs. Furthermore, the elastomeric springs can be offset toward the inside or outside, enabling an even more exact adaption of the restoring forces. When rotating about the vertical axis Z, the restoring device always directs the support part back into one of two initial positions that are opposite 180° of each other. The force for said rotational restoration can also be set.
