Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement in a rotation load device of an exercise tool for enhancing the stability of the circumflex muscle around the hip joint and the knee joint by the rotation load movement of the leg. Related to the invention. 2. Description of the Related Art In the above-mentioned prior art, the heel of the foot is used as a rotation axis because the rotation load direction of the turntable is one direction. Therefore, there is annoying change of the foot position of the external rotation motion of opening the toe in the opposite direction to the foot position of the internal rotation motion of closing the toe. [0004] In order to achieve the above object, a rotating load device of the present invention locks one of the chains branched in three directions by a tension spring and rotates the other two directions. The chain is locked at both ends of a chain locking member that rotates in conjunction with the table. According to the above mechanism, when the turntable rotates in one direction, one of the chains locked at both ends of the chain locking member which rotates in conjunction with it is pulled, and the three-way branch member is further rotated. To pull the chain connected thereto, and extend the tension spring hooked on the chain. When the turntable rotates in the opposite direction, one of the chains locked to the other end of the chain locking member is pulled, and the chain is also transmitted along the three-way branch member to pull the chain hooked by the pull spring. [0006] Further, since the rotational displacement angle and the spring constant of the spring have an inversely proportional relationship depending on the shape of the chain locking member, the rotational load has a small change in torque with respect to the advance of the rotational angle. An embodiment of a rotary load device according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, a bolt shaft 3 fixed to a rotary table 2 is supported on a base 1 with a bearing interposed therebetween.
Chain locking member 4 provided with chain locking portions at both ends
Is fixed to the bolt shaft 3 with a nut across the bearing,
Furthermore, it is firmly fixed by welding or the like. The ends of the chains 5 a and 5 b are locked at both ends of the chain locking member 4, and the other ends are locked to the three-way branching member 6. Further, the chain 7 on which the extension spring 8 is hooked is locked to another locking portion of the three-way branch member 6. The spring retaining member 9 retaining the extension spring 8 is
The spring engaging member 9 is slid onto the load adjusting rod 11 by turning the load adjusting knob 10, and the tensile force of the pull spring 8 is increased or decreased. In FIG. 2, when the turntable 2 is turned in the direction of arrow A, the chain locking member 4 is also turned in conjunction with the turn, whereby the chain 5a is pulled and the chain 5b is loosened. Further, the tension of the chain 5a is transmitted to the three-way branch member 6 and the chain 7, and the extension spring 8 is extended. On the other hand, when the turntable 2 rotates in the direction of arrow B, the chain 5b is pulled and the chain 5a is slackened. Further, the tension of the chain 5b is transmitted to the three-way branch member 6 and the chain 7, and the extension spring 8 is extended. As described above, according to the present invention, in the rotation movement of the leg, the inner rotation movement for closing the toe and the outer rotation movement for opening the toe with the heel of the foot as the rotation axis are performed without changing the position of the foot without interruption. I can do it. It is a simple and robust leg rotation exercise tool.
