The training device (), which is provided for training body parts of a user, in particular the hip muscles, gluteal muscles or pelvic muscles or the arm muscles, comprises a compressive-force receiver (), which is deformable under the impact of muscular force and which comprises a pressure chamber () in which a gel-like, liquid or gaseous medium is provided, a base () which, on the one hand, is supportable on a supporting surface and, on the other hand, serves for holding the compressive-force receiver (), and at least one sensor (), such as a pressure sensor or a force sensor, with which the medium is in contact and with which the pressure of the medium in the pressure chamber () is measurable. According to the invention

Device for training the pelvic floor muscles

The internal pressure pof the hollow body of a pneumatic structural element that comprises a hollow body (), at least two traction elements () and at least one compression member () can be electrothermally varied by means of a fluid. The hollow body () houses a void () which is filled with a gas (), and a container () which contains a volatile liquid (). Said liquid () can be heated or cooled by means of a heat pump (). Said heat pump () thermally contacts the liquid () via lamellas (). A pressure sensor () measures the pressure inside the void (). A cable () links the sensor () and the heat pump () with control and regulating electronics ().

In a process according to the invention for automatic calibration and/or linearization of a high-resolution electronic balance, point values are assigned by a function to the disturbance variables (parameters) that can affect the weighing result. A calibration and/or linearization is indicated or triggered when the accumulated point values reach a triggering point value (Xa) that is presettable, balance-specific and/or dependent on the environment. The calibration and/or linearization can also be triggered when the accumulated point value of a single disturbance variable reaches a triggering point value which is below point number (Xa).
