Abstract

This disclosure relates to a belt for wearing around a body center of an athlete while exercising, comprising a padding portion. The padding portion has a seat pad for sitting thereon, and at least one elastic portion wherein the belt has a circumferential length without the application of external force. Under the application of external force, the circumferential length of the belt can be reversibly increased by at least 8%, preferably by at least 20%, by elastic stretching of the at least one elastic portion.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A belt for wearing around a body center of an athlete while exercising, comprising:
 a padding portion, the padding portion having a seat pad for sitting thereon; and   at least one elastic portion,   wherein the belt has a circumferential length in the absence of external force, wherein under an external force, the circumferential length of the belt can be reversibly increased by at least 8% by elastic stretching of the at least one elastic portion.   
     
     
         2 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein the belt forms a closed curve. 
     
     
         3 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein the belt comprises at least one belt arm adjoining the padding portion. 
     
     
         4 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein the belt comprises at least two elastic portions. 
     
     
         5 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein the seat pad is formed in one piece. 
     
     
         6 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein the belt comprises a cover, in which cover the seat pad is arranged and by which cover the seat pad is enveloped, the cover being water-repellent. 
     
     
         7 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein the seat pad includes a seat pad material, which seat pad material has a compression hardness of at least 32 kPa at 25% compression and/or at least 60 kPa at 50% compression. 
     
     
         8 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein, viewed over an entire length of the padding portion, a width of the padding portion has exactly two maxima separated from one another. 
     
     
         9 . The belt according to  claim 8 , wherein a distance between the two maxima of the width of the padding portion is between 30% and 70% of the length of the padding portion. 
     
     
         10 . The belt according to  claim 8 , wherein the width of the padding portion between the two maxima of the width of the padding portion assumes a minimum value which minimum value is between 100 mm and 300 mm. 
     
     
         11 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein the width of the padding portion at each of its two maxima is between 140 mm and 330 mm. 
     
     
         12 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein the length of the seat pad is between 200 mm and 600 mm. 
     
     
         13 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein the thickness of the seat pad is between 8 mm and 30 mm. 
     
     
         14 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein the belt, without external force acting on the belt, has, over the entire height of the smallest width of the belt, a constant inner circumference. 
     
     
         15 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein the seat pad has chamfered edges. 
     
     
         16 . The belt according to  claim 1 , wherein under an external force, the circumferential length of the belt can be reversibly increased by at least 20% by elastic stretching of the at least one elastic portion. 
     
     
         17 . The belt according to  claim 6 , wherein the cover is waterproof. 
     
     
         18 . The belt according to  claim 9 , wherein the distance between the two maxima of the width of the padding portion is between 40% and 60% of the length of the padding portion. 
     
     
         19 . The belt according to  claim 11 , wherein the width of the padding portion between the two maxima of the width of the padding portion assumes a minimum value which minimum value is between 185 mm and 220 mm. 
     
     
         20 . The belt according to  claim 11 , wherein the width of the padding portion at each of its two maxima is between 210 mm and 250 mm.
