Detailed Description

The invention is further described below with reference to specific preferred embodiments, without thereby limiting the scope of protection of the invention.

Example (b):

as shown in fig. 1, the main body of the balance training ring of this embodiment is made of plastic or wood, and includes an inner ring 1 and an outer ring 3 concentrically disposed, and a plurality of connecting members 2 connected between the inner ring 1 and the outer ring 3, wherein the plurality of connecting members 2 are radially and uniformly distributed with the center point of the inner ring 1 as the center. The outer ring 3 is formed by detachably connecting two semi-rings in a mortise-tenon joint manner.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, eight mortises 6 are formed in the outer wall of the inner ring 1 and the inner wall of the outer ring 3 along the circumferential direction, and the mortises 6 extend to the top surface of the inner ring 1 or the outer ring 3. As shown in fig. 4 and 5, two ends of the connecting piece 2 along the radial direction of the inner ring 1 are provided with tenons 7 matched with the mortises 6; the tenons 7 are inserted into the respective mortises 6.

The top surface of the connecting piece 2 is flush with the top surface of the inner ring 1 or the outer ring 3, and all or part of the eight connecting pieces 2 with tenons at both ends can be arranged between the mortises of the inner ring and the outer ring (for example, one tenon is arranged at every other mortise). In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the connecting member 2 is a rail arranged horizontally. To increase the difficulty of crossing, the connector 2 may be replaced by a balustrade of the type shown in fig. 5, i.e. the top of the balustrade is provided with a protrusion 21 extending upwardly relative to the top surface of the balustrade.

The inner ring 1 is enclosed to form a first accommodating area 4 for the human feet to extend into; the plurality of connecting pieces 2 divide the cavity between the inner ring 1 and the outer ring 3 into a plurality of second accommodating areas 5 into which human feet can extend. The second accommodating areas 5 are sequentially numbered (1-8) along the circumferential direction of the inner ring 1, and the numbers are arranged at the positions, corresponding to the second accommodating areas 5, of the top surfaces of the inner ring 1 and the outer ring 3. The ring is used for flat ground which can be placed indoors or outdoors during balance training.

FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of a first way of performing balance function training using the present invention; the starting position is that the trainee stands two feet in the inner ring, then one foot (the affected side or the healthy side) is rapidly stepped into one of the digital corresponding areas (1-8) according to the instruction and the balance is preserved, as shown in the figure, the right foot is rapidly stepped into the digital 3 corresponding area according to the instruction. The difficulty can be increased or decreased by increasing or decreasing the number and spacing of the rails/panels.

FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of a second mode of performing balance function training using the present invention; the person to be trained takes a step forward or backward across the balustrade or balustrade between the inner and outer rings and keeps balance, and the person to be trained moves forward counterclockwise from the region corresponding to 3 to the region corresponding to 2 or moves backward clockwise from the region corresponding to 2 to the region corresponding to 3 as shown in the figure. The difficulty may be increased or decreased by increasing or decreasing the height and spacing of the rails/panels.

FIG. 8 is a schematic view of a mode 3 for performing balance function training using the present invention, wherein the starting position is that the person to be trained stands outside a digital corresponding area of the outer ring, then the right foot steps into the area, then the left foot steps into a left adjacent area of the area, then the right foot steps outside the outer ring, and finally the left foot steps out of the outer ring, and balance is maintained in the process.

The above description is only for the preferred embodiment of the present application and should not be taken as limiting the present application in any way, and although the present application has been disclosed in the preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present application, and those skilled in the art should understand that they can make various changes and modifications within the technical scope of the present application without departing from the scope of the present application, and therefore all the changes and modifications can be made within the technical scope of the present application.
