[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an exercise tool suitable for use for physical training, flexible gymnastics, health management and the like.
[0002]
[Prior art]
There are various types of exercise equipment that train the body, such as dumbbells, barbells, and expanders.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, dumbbells can only be exercised by holding them with their hands and raising and lowering their arms, and stretching them sideways, so their usage is limited. Barbells take up space and cannot be used in the workplace or at home, limiting the location of use, making it difficult for children and the elderly to use, and limiting who can use them. The expander was limited in its use because it could only be exercised by holding it with both hands to spread its arms, holding one side with its feet, and holding one side with its hand to raise and lower the arm.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The purpose of the present invention can be used in a wide variety of ways, as well as exercises of arms and legs, as well as training, stretching, etc. of many bodies such as abdominal muscles, back muscles, hips, and anyone can use it from children to adults It is to provide an exercise device that can be used easily indoors and outdoors.
[0005]
Motion device of the present invention, in the exercise device at least a portion of the outer edge pair of handles in the front and back surfaces respectively facing positions of the plate-shaped base which is arcuate is attached, is elongate plate and each of the pair of handles It is formed in a semicircular arc shape and has a space in which one foot can be inserted between the inside of the arc and the base, and the handle can be gripped with one hand, and the pair of handles are opposite to each other from the front and back surfaces of the base And is attached to the base so that one leg can be inserted into each of the spaces from the same direction of the outer periphery of the base .
[0006]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In the exercise tool of the present invention, a horizontally long semicircular handle 4 is attached to both planes 2 and 3 of the base 1. The base 1 is a rubber plate, and the bottom surface 5 is formed in an arc shape that rises from the longitudinal central portion 6 toward both ends 7 and 8. The size of the disc can be selected according to the application, such as for adults and children. As an example for an adult, a width of W230 mm, a height of H100 mm, and a wall thickness of T20 mm are suitable. The radius of the arc of the bottom surface 5 can also be selected according to the application, but in the case of the size, about 200 mm is suitable.
[0007]
The handle 4 is formed with a space 9 into which a foot or a hand can be inserted. An aluminum elongated plate is used for the handle 4, which is curved in a horizontally long semicircular shape, and linear attachment portions 10 are formed at both ends. The two handles 4 attach the attachment portion 10 to both the front and back surfaces 2 and 3 of the base 1, pass the bolt 11 inserted from the outside of the attachment portion 10 of one handle 4 through the base 1, and then attach the other handle 4. A nut 12 is screwed into a front end portion of a bolt 11 protruding from the mounting portion 10 through the portion 10, and both rings 4 are fixed to the base 1 with a common bolt 11. Aluminum is suitable for use in the handle 4 because it is soft, hard to rust, and lightweight.
[0008]
The base 1 can be made of an elastic hard resin such as a resin. The shape of the base 1 can be a shape other than that illustrated, for example, a desired shape such as a horizontally long ellipse, a semicircle, or a heart shape. Moreover, it can also be made thick rather than plate shape. The handle 4 can be made of other materials such as stainless steel or leather. The shape of the handle 4 is not limited to the illustrated shape, and other shapes such as a shape in which the space 9 is made semicircular, a shape in which the width of the space 9 gradually increases from the mounting portion 10 side to the outside, and the like. It can also be. In any shape, a shape in which the foot can be easily inserted and the inserted foot is difficult to come off and does not hurt is preferable.
[0009]
(Usage example 1)
There are various methods of using the exercise device of the present invention. For example, as shown in Figure 3, hold the handle 4 with both hands, extend both arms forward and rotate the upper body sideways, extend both arms over the head, bend the waist and bend the upper body.

In this case, since the bottom surface 5 of the substrate 1 is formed in an arc shape that rises from the central portion 6 in the longitudinal direction toward both ends 7 and 8, the bottom surface 5 of the exercise tool has little resistance even on the floor, and smoothly Can be raised or lowered.
[0012]
(Usage example 4)
As shown in FIG. 6, it is possible to lie down, extend both arms, hold the handle 4 with both hands, raise and lower both arms in the direction of the arrows, and move both legs up and down to exercise the legs and abdominal muscles. Also in this case, since the bottom surface 5 of the substrate 1 has an arc shape, the bottom surface 5 has almost no resistance to the floor by raising and lowering the arms, and can be smoothly raised and lowered.
[0013]
(Usage example 5)
As shown in FIG. 7, it is possible to exercise the legs and abdominal muscles by putting the hips on the floor, extending both legs forward, inserting the wife's tip side of both legs into the handle 4, and raising and lowering both legs in the direction of the arrows. Also in this case, since the bottom surface 5 of the substrate 1 has an arc shape, the bottom surface 5 has little resistance to the floor 9 by raising and lowering the foot, and can be smoothly raised and lowered.
[0014]
