A driving pulley 23 installed on the rotating shaft of the first rotating shaft 16 and a driving belt 24 that connects the driving pulley 23 and the driven pulley 17 of the first rotating shaft 16. Since it is installed in the internal space of the elongated member 12, the drive pulley 23, the drive belt 24, and the driven pulley 17 are not visible from the outside.

  The belt 19 is connected to the first rotating shaft 16 and the second rotating shaft 18, and performs an endless track motion by the first rotating shaft 16, and a plurality of identification bands 20 are spaced apart from each other. It is formed on the outer periphery of 19 at a predetermined interval. Here, the identification band 20 is painted in a color different from that of the belt 19. The identification band 20 is a band shape that can be identified from the belt 19 when the main body frame 11 is rotated up and down and the belt 19 is driven, and appears as if a skipping rope is turning. And the belt 19 is painted with a color different from that of the belt 19, so that the identification band 20 and the belt 19 can be more easily visually identified. For example, when the belt 19 is colored black, the identification band 20 is preferably colored white or yellow so as to reliably identify the belt 19 and the identification band 20, or the belt 19 Is colored with a chromatic color, the identification band 20 is preferably applied with a different color, that is, a complementary color of the 20 identification bands.

  In the present embodiment, the identification band 20 is formed on the outer periphery of the belt 19 by painting without any shape limitation. However, the identification band 20 is engraved or embossed to have a specific shape. It can also be formed on the outer periphery of the belt 19 by processing. In addition, the identification band 20 may be formed by various methods as long as it can be clearly identified from the belt 19 with the naked eye.

  The base frame 30 is installed on the ground (floor surface) and rotatably supports the main body frame 11, and further, first and second support members 31 extending in parallel with each other at a predetermined interval. 32, a panel-like jumping board 34 that is mounted between the first and second support members 31 and 32 to provide a running motion space, and the upper surfaces of the first and second support members 31 and 32, respectively. The first and second support members 31 and 32 to which the first and second sub-frames 36 and 37 extending upward with a predetermined length and the first and second elongated members 12 and 13 are connected. And a third sub-frame 38 extending upward from each one side.

  The first and second elongated members 12 and 13 are hingedly connected to the first and second support members 31 and 32, respectively, and the ground (floor surface) of vibrations generated during the running motion or jumping motion of the athlete (user). Since the anti-vibration member 33 that suppresses transmission to the first and second support members 31 and 32 is provided and the anti-vibration member 33 absorbs the vibration, the exercise device of the present invention is an apartment. It can be installed and used even indoors, such as multiple-family houses.

  The second driving unit 40 for rotating the main body frame 11 with respect to the base frame 30 is installed on the first support member 31 connected to the first elongated member 12, and the second driving unit 40 is A hinge shaft 41 extending from the first elongated member 12 and protruding toward the outside of the first support member 31; and a driven gear 42 provided at an end of the protruding hinge shaft 41; A two-drive motor 43 is installed on the first support member 31 adjacent to the hinge shaft 41, and a drive gear 44 that engages with the driven gear 42 is provided on the rotation shaft of the second drive motor 43. ing.

  When the second drive motor 43 is operated, the drive gear 44 rotates the driven gear 42 to rotate the main body frame 11 to one side or the other side of the base frame 30. A protective cap 45 that protects the drive gear 44 and the driven gear 42 exposed to the outside of the first support member 31 is installed on the first support member 31 so that the drive gear 44 and the driven gear 42 are connected to each other. Prevents damage and protects the human body from safety accidents caused by contact with them.

  The jumping board 34 is provided between the first and second support members 31 and 32 to provide a traveling space for an exerciser (user), and when the exerciser (user) exercises on the jumping board 34. The vibration generated in the first and second support members 31 and 32 is canceled by the jumping board 34 and the anti-vibration member 33. The jumping board 34 is preferably made of a material that can withstand the load applied when the athlete (user) jumps and absorbs the vibration. Although not shown, an impact cushioning mat can be further provided on the jumping board 34 to minimize the impact on the body of the exerciser (user) during the jumping exercise of the exerciser (user). Further, the stopper groove 35 is formed on one side of the upper surface of the jumping board 34. In other words, the stopper groove 35 is connected to the stopper protrusion 15 provided in each of the first and second elongated members 12 and 13 when the main body frame 11 is rotated to execute the traveling motion. Thus, the main body frame 11 and the base frame 30 can be connected to each other safely and reliably. When the exerciser (user) performs a running exercise, the stopper protrusion 15 and the stopper groove 35 are damaged due to the weight and vibration of the exerciser (user) himself / herself during the exercise of the exerciser (user). Therefore, it is preferably coated with urethane rubber.

  The third sub frame 38 is formed to extend upward from each side of the base frame 30 with a predetermined length together with the main body frame 11, and the upper surface of the third sub frame 38 is A control panel 46 including a display unit for displaying the rotation speed of the belt 19, a control switch for controlling the rotation speed of the belt 19, and the second drive motor 43 are operated to rotate the main body frame 11. And a drive switch.

  When the exerciser (user) selects the speed of the belt 19 and the type of exercise by operating the control switch and the drive switch based on information displayed on the display unit of the control panel 46, the control A controller built in the panel 46 operates the 122th drive motor and the second drive motor 43 in accordance with the input signal corresponding to the information.

  Since the first and second subframes 36 and 37 extend upward from the upper surfaces of the first and second support members 31 and 32 by a predetermined length, an exerciser (user) holds the handle 50. It includes a pair of handles 50 that can be gripped to assume the same posture as jumping rope during running motion on the jumping board 34. Furthermore, since the control panel 46 is obstructed by the main body frame 11 extending upward, it is possible for an exerciser (user) to approach the control panel 46 during a jumping movement (extend his hand). Since it is not easy, an auxiliary control panel 47 including a control switch for controlling the rotation speed of the belt 19 is installed on the second subframe 37.

  The handle 50 is attached to the first and second sub-frames 36 and 37, and is configured so that an exerciser (user) can hold the handle 50 by hand during jumping movement on the jumping board 34. In the case of an actual skipping rope, an athlete holds the skipping rope with the handles 50 provided at both ends of the skipping rope, turns the skipping rope over the head, and then turns it under the foot in a continuous motion. Every time the rope passes under the foot, it jumps. Therefore, when the exerciser (user) performs a jumping exercise on the exercise device 100 according to the present invention, the exerciser (user) can use the handle 50 provided in the first and second subframes 36 and 37. Can be held in the same posture as in the actual jump rope exercise. For this purpose, the handle 50 is attached to each end of the connecting cord 52 and a cord 52 extending from the fixing portion 51 so that the handle 50 can be easily grasped by the hand of an exerciser (user). And a fixing portion 51 fixed to the first and second sub-frames 36 and 37 for connecting the formed gripping portion 53.

  The exercise device 100 further includes a speaker 49 that generates an acoustic effect similar to the sound of a rope hitting the ground when turning a skipping rope.

  The speaker 49 has a rotating sound generated when turning a skipping rope based on a signal transmitted from the controller built in the control panel 46, and an impact generated when the skipping rope hits the ground. The controller 48 controls the reproduction interval between the rotating sound and the striking sound according to the rotational speed of the first drive motor 22 that rotates the belt 19. That is, when the first drive motor 22 rotates at a high speed, the belt 19 also rotates at a high speed, and the moving speed of the identification band 20 displayed on the belt 19 also increases. As a result, the reproduction interval between the rotating sound and the hitting sound output from the speaker 49 is shortened to realize a jump rope sound effect, and a sound generated by turning the jump rope faster is output.

  As described above, the acoustic effect generated from the handle 50, the speaker 49, and the identification band 20 formed on the belt 19 are the same movement as an actual jump rope without using an actual jump rope. Gives an effect and makes it feel to an exerciser (user).

  Referring to FIG. 4, the pair of handles 60 includes an internal space, an expandable portion 66 that is extendably installed in the internal space of the housing 61, and a gripping member 71 that is installed in the expandable portion 66. It is also possible to connect to the first and second sub-frames 36 and 37 each including a housing 61 having.

  The housing 61 includes an upper member 62 and a lower member 64 that are engaged with each other. The lower member 64 has a connection hook 65 to which a spring 68 of the expandable portion 66 is connected. Has a through-hole 63 having a predetermined diameter that is joined to the lower member 64 to form an internal space for installing the expandable portion 66 and communicates the internal space with the outer space.

  The expandable portion 66 includes a movable member 67 positioned in the internal space, and a plurality of springs each having one end connected to the movable member 67 and the other end connected to the connecting hook 65 of the lower member 64. 68, and the movable member 67 is joined to the housing 61 by the spring 68. Therefore, when an external force is applied to the movable member 67, the movable member 67 moves in the external force direction, and the external force is released. Then, the movable member 67 returns to the original position by the restoring force of the spring 68.

  The gripping member 71 is rotatably joined to the movable member 67 by a hinge member 69 of the expandable portion 66, extends to the outside of the housing 61 through the through hole 63 of the upper member 62, and the hinge member 69 extends the gripping member 71 downward or extends toward the opposing first and second sub-frames 36 and 37 so that the athlete (user) can grip it. Move. That is, the hinge member 69 rotates the gripping member 71 so as to extend downward, so that the gripping member 71 is rotated when the body frame 11 is rotated or when an exerciser (user) is traveling. Prevents the rotation of the main body frame 11 and the movement movement of the exerciser (user).

  When an exerciser (user) performs a running exercise, each gripping member 71 of the handle 50 is rotated and gripped by the exerciser (user) and extends in both directions. Since the stopper 70 that restricts the movement is formed on the hinge member 69, the gripping member 71 can rotate only within a spatial range that can extend in both directions.

  When an exerciser (user) grips the gripping member 71 and performs a traveling motion, the movable member 67 joined to each gripping member 71 can be expanded and contracted in the housing 61 by the spring 68. In addition, in order to project the gripping member 71, the diameter of the through hole 63 provided in the upper member 62 is configured to exceed the diameter of each gripping member 71. Therefore, each said holding member 71 can operate | move flexibly within the range in which the said through-hole 63 was formed according to the exercise | movement operation of the exerciser (user).

  5 and 6 are views for explaining a handle portion 80 according to another embodiment of the present invention.

  The handle portion 80 according to the present embodiment includes a pair of gripping portions 81 gripped by a user's hand, a rotating rope 82 extending from each gripping portion 81 with a predetermined length, including.

  Unlike the conventional rope skipping rope, the rotary rope 82 is not connected to each other, so that the rotation of the rope skipping rope can be prevented from stopping due to entanglement with the body of the athlete (user). At the same time, a jumping movement effect like an actual jump rope is realized.

  In addition, the handle unit 80 according to the present embodiment of the present invention may include a speed sensor 84 on one side thereof in order to measure the rotational speed of the rotary rope 82. An instruction line 83 is formed on the rotating rope 82 portion extending from the handle portion 80 having the gripping portion 81 where the speed sensor 84 is installed. When the rotating rope 82 is rotated, The position of the rotary rope 82 corresponds to the front point of the speed sensor 84.

  Therefore, when the user grips the gripping portion 81 and rotates the rotary rope 82, the indication line 83 passes through the front surface of the speed sensor 84 for a predetermined time. Although the rotational speed can be measured, the rotational speed of the rotating rope 82 can be measured by various other methods.

  Information on the rotational speed measured by the speed sensor 84 is transmitted to the controller via a remote transmitter unit 85. The remote transmitter unit 85 includes a transmitter 86 connected to the speed sensor 84 and installed in the gripping unit 81, and a receiver 87 installed in the control panel 46 and receiving a signal from the transmitter 86. .

  Information on the rotational speed of the rotary rope 82 received by the receiver 87 is transmitted to the control panel 46 built in the controller. The controller adjusts the driving speed of the first driving motor 22 according to the rotating speed of the rotating rope 82 to change the moving speed of the identification band 20 that responds to the rotating speed of the rotating rope 82.

  Therefore, the moving speed of the identification band 2 on the belt can be automatically adjusted in response to the rotating speed of the rotary rope 82 without a user's separate operation.

  The remaining elements of the present embodiment are substantially the same as the elements of the previous embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, and thus the same corresponding elements are denoted by the same reference numerals and detailed description thereof is omitted. .

  Hereinafter, the usage of the jump rope exercise device 100 according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

  An athlete (user) who wants to perform a jump rope motion sets the main body frame 11 by turning it up and down, and then rides on the jumping board 34 of the base frame 30, and then the belt 19 at a desired speed. Is transmitted to the controller 48 using the auxiliary control panel 47, the belt 19 rotates in front of an exercising person (user), and the identification band 20 formed on the outer periphery of the belt 19 is transmitted. Thus, the exerciser (user) is visually felt as if a skipping rope is spinning. The controller 48 controls the rotation sound and the striking sound of the skipping rope and reproduces those sounds from the speaker 49, so that the exerciser (user) can perform the actual skipping movement according to the movement operation of the identification band 20. The same jumping motion can be continuously performed. Further, when an exerciser (user) who performs a jumping motion grips the grip portion 53 of the handle 50, the grip portion 53 is rotatably connected to the fixing portion 51 by the connection cord 52. Therefore, a realistic sense of jumping rope is given to the exerciser (user).

  When an athlete (user) who wants to perform a running motion rotates the main body frame 11 by operating the second drive motor 43 via a switch of the control panel 46 or the auxiliary control panel 47, The main body frame 11 can be set in a direction parallel to the ground (floor surface). In this state, the stopper projection 15 of the main body frame 11 and the stopper groove 35 formed on the jumping board 34 are engaged with each other. Thus, an exerciser (user) can perform a running exercise on the belt 19.

  Since the vibration generated when the exerciser (user) performs the running motion or the jumping motion can be canceled by the anti-vibration member 33 of the base frame 30, the exerciser (user) can run or jump indoors. Can do exercise.
