Yan-Yee Lee Actual Inventor(s): Address for Service: Invention Title: Spruson Ferguson, Patent Attorneys Level 33 St Martins Tower, 31 Market Street Sydney, New South Wales, 2000, Australia Shoe Equipped with Spring for Doing Jumping Exercise The following statement is a full description of this invention, best method of performing it known to me/us:including the 5845 SHOE EQUIPPED WITH SPRING FOR DOING JUMPING
EXERCISE
FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates generally to an exercise shoe, and more particularly to an exercise shoe which is equipped with a spring for doing a jumping exercise.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The conventional exercise devices take up a large floor space and are therefore not suitable for use in a small room. It is becoming io increasingly difficult to find a gymnasium or playground, which is not overcrowded. As a result, a jumping exercise has become rather popular in view of the fact that the jumping exercise can be done in a relatively small area.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION IS The primary objective of the present invention is therefore to provide an exercise shoe for doing a jumping exercise in a small floor or ground space.
In keeping with the principle of the present invention, the foregoing objective of the present invention is attained by an exercise 2r. shoe which is equipped with a spring housed in a frame. The frame is fastened with the outsole of the exercise shoe. The frame is provided respectively at both ends thereof with an elastic protective cover. The protective cover is fastened with the frame by a control rod which is engaged with a pull rod. The pull rod has a free end which is provided with a retaining ring engageable with one end of the spring. The frame is provided with a skidproof bottom.
The foregoing objective, features and functions of the present invention will be more readily understood upon a thoughtful deliberation of the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of the present invention.
FIG. 2 shows an exploded view of the frame of the present invention.
FIG. 3 shows a side schematic view of the present invention.
FIG. 3 shows a side schematic view of the present invention in oooooFIG. 4 shows a side schematic view of the present invention in action.
FIG. 5 is a schematic view showing the adjustment of the resilience of the present invention.
FIG. 6 shows a side schematic view of another preferred embodiment of the present invention.
:DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, and exercise shoe embodied in the present invention is composed of an outsole 10 and a frame 12 fastened with the outsole The outsole 10 is provided with a shoe body fastened therewith for containing the foot of an exerciser.
The frame 12 is provided in the underside thereof with a skidproof piece 14 which is fastened therewith by means of a plurality of screws 13.
The frame 12 is further provided respectively at the toe end thereof and the heel end thereof with an elastic protective cover 16, which is fastened thereto by a control rod member 17. The control rod member 17 comprises a bolt 24 having a threaded hole 23, and a pull rod 26 having a retaining ring 25. The pull rod 26 is engaged with the threaded hole 23 of the bolt 24. The frame 12 is further provided respectively in the inner sides of the top and the bottom of the frame 12 with a protuberance 19 engageable with one of the through holes 21 of a circular body which is located inside the frame 12. The circular body 15 is provided coaxially with two engagement holes 22 corresponding in location to the :.7 S through holes 20 located at the toe end and the heel end of the frame 12.
A spring 18 has a body 181 provided respectively at both ends e thereof with a hook 182. The spring 18 is located inside the circular body 15 such that the hooks 182 of the spring 18 are engaged with the retaining rings 25 of the two control rod members 17, which are received A in the through holes 20 of the frame 12 and the engagement holes 22 of the circular body As illustrated in FIG. 5, the resilience of the frame 12 can be ~adjusted by means of a hand tool 50, which is used to rotate the pull rod 26 to turn further into the threaded hole 23 of the bolt 24, thereby resulting in the expansion of the spring 18 and the flattening out of the frame 12. As a result, the frame 12 has a lower resilience. On the other hand, if the pull rod 26 is turned in the direction away from the 3 bottom end of the threaded hole 23 of the bolt 24, the spring 18 is compressed. As a result, the frame 12 has a greater resilience.
As shown in FIG. 6, an exercise shoe of another preferred embodiment of the present invention is composed of the frame 12 which is provided with a vertically-oriented spring 30. Both ends of the spring are retained by the protuberances 19 of the frame 12.
The frame 12, the circular body 15 and the skidproof piece 14 of the present invention are made of an elastic and tougn material.
The embodiments of the present invention described above are to io be deemed in all respects as being merely illustrative and not restrictive.
Accordingly, the present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without deviating from the spirit thereof. The present invention is therefore to be limited only by the scopes of the following appended claims.
