Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a user to perform an exercise of a constant exercise strength surely effective to diet and rehabilitation with safety by constructing the meter of water resistant structure, and transmitting a pitch for exercise in water to a user in the form of a body sensitive signal. SOLUTION: This meter informs a user, in the operation of transmitting a proper pitch for exercise in water via a body sensitive signal, a pitch of input speed of swing and movement of arms and legs at the time of swimming or walking to a user to perform exercise in water in the form of shock or vibration when walking in water or swimming of such as crawl is selected. A transmitting means transforms an electric signal of pulse signal generating circuit/amplification circuit into shock/vibration by an electromagnet, an eccentric motor or the like and transmits it as a signal to the user. Measurement of exercise quantity can be made by detecting an heart rate varying at the time of exercise as well as the strength of exercise sensed by a user's body, and a target heart rate for each user is input, then a pitch is selected, and they are transmitted as a body sensitive signal.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an underwater kinetic meter that transmits a pitch suitable for underwater exercise by a body sensation signal attached to the body.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art It has long been known that underwater exercise and water therapy have been used for preventing and treating diseases as effective means for building physical strength and health management.

[0003] In recent years, underwater exercise is generally performed as diet or rehabilitation. In water, there is a resistance to water in water, so even a small amount of exercise can provide a sufficient effect.

[0004]

However, a pacemaker for underwater exercise and a device for adjusting the amount of underwater exercise by measuring a heart rate have not been developed. Underwater walking is repeated.

[0005]

Means for Solving the Problems The inventor developed the present invention as a result of intensive research in view of this point,
In the present invention, an appropriate exercise amount of each person is calculated and displayed for the purpose of performing underwater exercise at a constant rhythm, and the exercise effect is enhanced as a bodily sensation pitch signal in water.

Since this pitch signal is underwater, it is unsuitable for transmission by sound, and is suitable for a shock or vibration that can be felt by the skin, and is set by a user wearing the arm or the like (a bodily sensation signal). ) To achieve the purpose of dieting and rehabilitation without undue burden by exercising to fit.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is an explanatory view of the apparatus of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing the operation of the underwater kinetic meter according to claim 1. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the operation of the second embodiment.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The details of the underwater kinetic meter of the present invention will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. FIG. 2 shows an operation of transmitting an appropriate pitch for underwater exercise by a bodily sensation signal. Or to select a swimming event such as crawl, swing your arm when swimming or walking,
Enter the speed of how you move your legs, and convey this pitch by shock or vibration that you can feel on your skin.

As the transmitting means, the electric signal of the pulse signal generating circuit / amplifying circuit is converted into shock / vibration by an electromagnet, an eccentric motor or the like and transmitted to the wearer as a signal.

In order to measure the amount of exercise, it is possible to know whether the exercise is extreme or insufficient by examining the intensity of exercise felt by the body and the heart rate (pulse) that actually changes during exercise. It is necessary to select and enter the target heart rate.

The target heart rate is generally represented by (maximum heart rate−resting heart rate) × 0.5 to 0.85 + resting heart rate. Here the maximum heart rate is (220-age) beats /
Minutes. The resting heart rate is generally 70 beats / minute. The lower limit 0.5 of the numerical value shown here is a coefficient of a person with a low physical fitness level, and 0.85 is a coefficient of a person with a high physical fitness level. A pitch is selected based on the target heart rate and transmitted as a bodily sensation signal.

As for the change in heart rate during exercise, the pitch is decreased when the target heart rate range exceeds the upper limit, and when the target heart rate range exceeds the lower limit, the pitch is decreased. Is modified to increase the pitch.

The amount of exercise thus obtained is calculated from the exercise type, time, and pitch, and the calorie consumption and the like are displayed.
Further, by adding a timer function to the present apparatus, the end of the exercise can be notified by a bodily sensation signal.

[0014]

By using the underwater exercise meter of the present invention, it becomes a measure of the exercise intensity when an individual exercises underwater, and also a measure of the aerobic exercise necessary for burning fat, and exercises underwater at a constant exercise intensity. The diet and rehabilitation are safe and effective without overdoing.
