DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments of the present invention are described below.
FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of an exercise assisting apparatus according to the present invention.
In FIG. 1, an exercise assisting apparatus 1 according to the present invention includes a plurality of (two in the present embodiment) ring-shaped rubber members 2 and two ring-shaped rubber members 2 fitted therein. It is comprised by the stop member 3 bundled and fixed in one place. As shown in FIG. 2, the ring-shaped rubber member 2 can be formed by forming a rubber material having elasticity into a string 2A. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 3, the rubber material having elasticity can be formed into a tube shape. (Pipe shape) 2B can also be formed and configured.
[0016]
As shown in FIG. 4, the stop member 3 is formed in the shape of a dull cross section. That is, the stop member 3 has an end surface formed in an 8-character shape (or glasses), and has two through holes 31 and 32 and is formed in a pipe shape. One ring-shaped rubber member 21 of the two ring-shaped rubber members 2 is fitted into the through-hole 31, and the ring-shaped rubber member 21 is configured to be bundled and fixed. Further, the other ring-shaped rubber member 22 of the two ring-shaped rubber members 2 is fitted into the through hole 32, and the ring-shaped rubber member 22 is configured to be bundled and fixed. The two ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22 are bundled and fixed at one place by the stopper member 3.
[0017]
When this stopper member 3 is formed in the shape of glasses, there is one through hole, and two ring rubber members 2 are fitted into this one through hole, and the ring rubber member 21 is bundled and fixed.
The stopper member 3 is formed to have an eight-letter shape (or eyeglass shape) in this way because the stopper member 3 is deformed when the outer peripheral surface of the stopper member 3 is fastened with the velcro tape 4. This is because the two ring-shaped rubber members 2 housed in the through holes of the stopper member 3 can be reliably fixed.
[0018]
The stop member 3 is formed with a step 33 having a predetermined length in the length direction and a diameter smaller than the diameter of the stop member 3. The step portion 33 is for preventing the magic tape 4 wound around the outer peripheral surface of the stopper member 3 from protruding from the outer peripheral surface of the stopper member 3. Further, by providing the stepped portion 33 on the outer peripheral surface of the stopper member 3, the thickness of the stopper member 3 is reduced, and when the velcro tape 4 is tightened, the stepped portion 33 is easily deformed by the tightening force of the velcro tape 4. The two ring-shaped rubber members 2 can be bundled and fixed more reliably.
The magic tape 4 is generally a commercially available person, and is provided with a large number of projections for forming a synthetic resin yarn in a loop shape on one surface, and a synthetic resin yarn on the other surface to match the loop-shaped projection formation surface. Is provided with a large number of protrusions that form a bowl shape, and can be easily detached.
[0019]
When the fastening force of the velcro tape 4 is released, the stopper member 3 becomes relatively free, and the stopper member 3 is slid in the length direction of the ring-shaped rubber member 2 as shown by an arrow in FIG. The position for bundling and fixing can be freely adjusted.
As described above, the exercise assisting apparatus 1 uses a ring-shaped rubber member 2 formed by forming a rubber material having stretchability and having a string shape in a ring shape, and at least two of the ring-shaped rubber members 2. The ring-shaped rubber member 2 is fitted, and a stop member 3 that is bundled and fixed at an arbitrary position is provided, and the position at which the stop member 3 is slidably attached and fixed is adjustable.
[0020]
In FIG. 1, 5 is a handle having a plurality of ring-shaped rubber members 1. The handle 5 is formed in a pipe shape so as to be easily held, and has flexibility so that the hitting is soft when held. The material is resin, and silicon rubber, urethane foam, etc. are suitable. The grip 5 is provided at both ends of the two ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22 with the stop member 3 interposed therebetween. That is, two grips 5 are provided on one ring-shaped rubber member 21 and two on the other ring-shaped rubber member 22. Each handle 5 provided on the ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22 is configured to be movable in each of the attached ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22.
[0021]
Further, one ring-shaped rubber member 21 is provided with adjusting members 6 and 7 that are bundled at any one place on one or both (both in FIG. 1) of the ring-shaped rubber member 21 with the stop member 3 interposed therebetween. ing. Further, the other ring-shaped rubber member 22 is provided with adjusting members 6 and 7 that are bundled at one or both of the ring-shaped rubber members 22 (both in FIG. 1) at one arbitrary position with the stop member 3 interposed therebetween. ing.
The adjusting members 6 and 7 are used to set the sizes of the rings at both ends of the ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22.
The adjusting members 6 and 7 have a configuration as shown in FIG. That is, the adjusting members 6 and 7 are closely fitted with one ring-shaped rubber member 2 in a state where the opposing pipes are aligned, and the adjusting members 6 and 7 are held by hand and are fitted with the ring-shaped rubber member. By pulling 2 to one side, the position of the adjusting members 6 and 7 can be slid in the length direction of the ring-shaped rubber member 2 as shown by the arrows in FIG. Can be adjusted to.
[0022]
Further, in the vicinity of one or both (one in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1) sandwiching the retaining member 3 of the ring-shaped rubber member 2, the ring member 8 has a fixing material (for example, (String, adhesive, etc.)
In the exercise performed using the exercise assisting device 1, there is an exercise in which one handle 5 of the ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22 is put on a leg and the other is lifted by hand. In this exercise, the ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22 are used. When the ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22 on the legs are removed during the movement of putting one foot 5 on the other hand and pulling the other hand up, it will return to the hand vigorously by the contraction force of the rubber. You may hit a part of your body. In such a case, the ring member 8 is for preventing the ring-like rubber members 21 and 22 hung on the legs from coming back to the hand vigorously due to the contraction force of the rubber. That is, when the ring member 8 is exercised by putting one foot 5 on the ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22 and lifting the other by hand, the ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22 on the feet often come off. Even if the ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22 hung on the foot are removed by passing through the ankle, the elastic force of the rubber prevents the rubber from returning to the hand.
[0023]
7 and 8 show an example of use of the exercise assisting device 1 shown in FIG.
First, the size of the ring of the ring-shaped rubber member 2 is adjusted by sliding the stop member 3 of the exercise assisting device 1. That is, for example, as shown in FIG. 7, adjustment is made so that the size of the ring of the ring-shaped rubber member 2 on which the stop member 3 is slid and put on the foot is reduced. The ring-shaped rubber member 2 that is placed on the foot is adjusted so that the ring size of the ring-shaped rubber member 2 is reduced. When the end of the ring of the member 2 is pulled up, there is an effect that the degree of freedom is given and the movement can be performed freely.
Further, in the use example of the exercise assisting device 1 shown in FIG. 7, the position of the adjusting members 6 and 7 is adjusted, and the size of the ring on which the leg of the ring-shaped rubber member 2 is hung is reduced. The size of the ring on the side held by the hand of 2 is adjusted to be small. By doing so, when the exercise is performed to put one foot 5 on the ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22 and lift the other by hand, the ring-shaped rubber members 21 and 22 on the side lifted by hand It is possible to prevent a part of the body from being caught.
[0024]
Further, in the usage example of the exercise assisting device 1 illustrated in FIG. 8, first, the stop member 3 of the exercise assisting device 1 is slid so that the size of the ring of the ring-shaped rubber member 2 is adjusted to be small. 8 shows an example in which the exercise assisting instrument 1 shown in FIG. 8 is used as it is without adjusting the positions of the adjusting members 6 and 7.
[0025]
