Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an underarm squeezing equipment providing an underarm from spreading for squeezing the underarm and keeping this posture in swinging in training of golf swing. SOLUTION: This underarm squeezing auxiliary protector is constituted of a pair of protector units, each of which is constructed of a series of band to be fit around the upper arm and the back face side from a chest face side. Elastic materials 3 are installed to the end parts, which are arranged on the chest face side and the back face side of a body in installation of respective band bodies 1, 1', of the respective band bodies 1, 1' so as to be integrated together. At the tip in each of the band bodies 1, 1', a fixing band joint part 9 and a fixing band connecting part 10 are provided. Inside of the contact part of the body, a cylindrical sleeve is arranged. The cylindrical sleeve is formed into a semicylindrial sleeve. When the respective band bodies 1, 1' constructed as units individually are connected to the fixing band connection part 10 in a strained condition by means of a connection adjusting fixing band 2, an underarm is squeezed because of an action of the elastic materials 3, and a protector constructed of an integrated pair of left and right sections is provided.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an orthosis for training a golf swing, with the aim of obtaining a basic upper swing body with its sides tightened.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a technique for obtaining a sense of upper body swing between an arm and a shoulder while maintaining a constant distance between left and right arms, a plate-like body made of urethane or the like is used to form an arm at the left and right ends. There was a hole through which the right and left arms were inserted to practice golf swing.

[0003]

(A) The above-mentioned brace aims to keep the width of the shoulder and the width of the left and right arms constant when the left and right arms are inserted into the respective holes and the golf club is gripped. It is difficult to prevent side opening. (B) Since the arm width and the shoulder width are merely held by inserting the arm, the brace attached to the upper arm is displaced by the swing operation, so the position is not determined, and it must be corrected each time, which is troublesome. (C) Since the brace is a plate-shaped body and has a pocket, it is difficult to touch the chest and swing. (D) If the user wears the brace and makes continuous swings, the inserted arm portion will hurt his arm due to the contact friction with the brace hole, and the swing cannot be continued.

[0004]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, according to the present invention, each of the strips having elasticity and flexibility is not formed as a single plate as in the prior art. The object is achieved by forming a pair of left and right sides and mounting them so as to cover the chest and back of the torso from the upper arm of the human body. Left and right strips (1)
(1) 'is composed of a) an elastic member (3) and a reinforcing member (4) at its left and right ends.
Are connected or provided. b) At one end, a connection adjustment fixing band (2) is extended vertically in parallel. c) At the lower end on the rear side, there is provided a displacement prevention (connection) piece (7). d) A back / chest connecting cord (8) is provided for hanging each band (1) (1) 'on the shoulder. e) A tubular sleeve (5) is provided on the inner side of each of the strips (1) (1) '. According to the present invention, the brace of each of the left and right band-shaped bodies (1) and (1) 'having the above-mentioned left and right single structures is connected to the connection adjustment fixed band (2).
This is a golf swing side tightening auxiliary protector that connects the left and right sides to form a single body, fixes the upper arm, and restricts the side opening.

[0005]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. (B) At the ends of the left and right band-shaped members (1) and (1) ', an elastic member (3) for tightening the sides by tightening on the chest side and the back side is incorporated and connected. Then, two reinforcing members (4) for preventing deformation during the swing are attached to the two sides of the elastic member (3). (B) The left and right strips (1) and (1) ′ are notched in a semicircular shape on the chest side and the back side, respectively, so as to protrude vertically in the horizontal direction. A fixed band joint (9) is provided at the two tips protruding vertically in parallel so that the left and right sides of the chest side and the back side are symmetrical when the band-shaped bodies (1) and (1) 'are attached, Further, a fixed band connection part (10) is provided, and a surface fastener is attached to the outer surface thereof. (C) The connection adjustment fixed bands (2) for connecting the respective band-shaped bodies (1) and (1) 'to the left and right to form a single band are provided in the form of a narrow band, and two upper and lower bands are provided on each of the chest side and the back side. Then, one of the ends is joined to the fixed band connecting portion (9), and the other end is connected to the fixed band connecting portion (10) by attaching a hook-and-loop fastener to the inner surface of the tip. (D) At the lower rear end of each of the strips (1) and (1) ', there is provided a piece (7) for preventing displacement (connection). A spare elastic band is connected to the displacement prevention (connection) piece (7) and wound around the lower part of the body to be stopped, thereby preventing displacement and lifting of the orthosis during the swing. (E) When the left and right belts (1) and (1) 'are attached, the upper and lower arms are connected by connecting the chest side and the back side to the inside of each of the belts (1) and (1)' in contact with the human body surface. A tubular sleeve (5) is provided to consolidate and prevent movement of the brace during swing. A tubular sleeve connecting portion (6) is provided on the back upper arm of each of the left and right band-shaped bodies (1) and (1) 'for connecting the tubular sleeve (5), and a hook-and-loop fastener is attached. The tubular sleeve (5) is formed in a semicircular sleeve shape so as to wrap the upper arm from under the armpit. Then, one side of the sleeve is joined to the chest-side upper arm of each of the left and right band-shaped bodies (1) and (1) '. A hook-and-loop fastener is attached to the outer surface of the other side having the sleeve shape on the back side, and is connected to the tubular sleeve connection portion (6).

The present invention has the above-mentioned structure, and when the user practices the swing by wearing it, each band (1)
(1) Before attaching ', temporarily connect the left and right sides with the connection adjustment fixing bands (2) on the chest side and the back side, and then attach the back and chest connection cord (8) to the shoulder and attach it to the upper body. Once installed,
The upper arm is tightened by passing both arms through the cylindrical sleeve (5) and connected to the cylindrical sleeve connecting portion (6). Then, the elastic member (3) is tensioned in parallel or cross with the connection adjustment fixed bands (2) on the back side and the chest side, respectively, and one end is connected to the fixed band connection part (10) to thereby form the left and right sides. The sides are tightened, and the left and right band-like bodies (1) and (1) 'are united. In addition, when each of the belts (1) and (1) ′ is mounted on the right or left upper body to practice a golf swing, the respective belts (1)
Also, a spare fixed band is first connected to the fixed band connecting portion (10) of (1) ′, and then attached to the upper body. Then, after tightening the upper arm by passing the arm through the cylindrical sleeve (5), the spare fixed band connected earlier is turned around the body part under the relative side and connected to the connection adjustment fixed band (2) to expand and contract the elastic member (3). If you are nervous,
One side is tightened, and each of the strips (1) and (1) 'can function as a single body.

[0007]

According to the present invention, the left and right upper arms that are pulled apart are united, the opening of the side is restricted and the side is closed, and the shoulder can be turned in that state. Then, since the golf swing can be practiced while maintaining the state, the upper basic swing body can be obtained.
