Description

本発明は、一定の空間内において、犬に水中歩行運動をさせることができるように構成された犬用の運動器具に関し、運動主体である犬の運動を補助する介護者の負担を軽減しつつ、その犬に過度の負担をかけることなく、適度な運動やリハビリをさせるための器具に関する。   The present invention relates to an exercise device for a dog configured to allow a dog to perform an underwater walking exercise in a certain space, while reducing the burden on a caregiver who assists the exercise of the dog as an exercise subject. It relates to a device that allows appropriate exercise and rehabilitation without overly burdening the dog.

電動モータで駆動する歩行運動用のベルトコンベアを、上方が開口し、水を溜め得る箱状の運動用水槽の長方形の内底部に配設して、該運動用水槽内に前記ベルトが水に浸りきって適当な水深となるように水を溜め、該ベルト上において水の抵抗や浮力を受けさせながら運動主体である犬が水槽内を殆ど移動することなく水中歩行運動をさせることができるように構成された犬用の運動器具が、先に本発明者等によって提案されている(特許文献1)。   A belt conveyor for walking exercise driven by an electric motor is disposed on the rectangular inner bottom of a box-shaped exercise water tank that opens upward and can store water, and the belt is placed in the exercise water tank. Accumulate water at an appropriate depth by immersing it so that the dog, who is the subject of exercise, can walk underwater with little movement in the tank while receiving resistance and buoyancy on the belt. An exercise apparatus for dogs configured as described above has been previously proposed by the present inventors (Patent Document 1).

特許文献1の運動器具は、運動主体である犬に対して、水中歩行運動をさせるのに必要な設備を有し、フロータや把手を有する胴衣を装着させた該犬に、この犬の運動を補助する介護者が付き添って該把手を把持しながら運動用水槽内において水中歩行運動などをさせてリハビリ効果を得ることができるようになっている。   The exercise device of Patent Document 1 has equipment necessary for underwater walking exercise for a dog, which is the subject of exercise, and exercises this dog on a dog wearing a jacket with a floater and a handle. A rehabilitation effect can be obtained by an underwater walking exercise or the like in an exercise water tank while an assisting caregiver accompanies and holds the handle.

しかしながら、この種の従来の犬用の運動器具においては、運動主体である犬に水中歩行運動などの運動をさせようとする場合には、少なくとも一人以上の介護者が付き添って、該犬に装着させる胴衣に設けられた把手などを把持しつつ、該犬を支持するなどして補助し続ける必要がある。この際、運動主体である犬には、重力や水流などの負荷が掛かる上、該犬自身の動きが加わるため、特に大きな犬種の場合には、介護者に掛かる負担が著しく大きくなり過ぎるという問題があった。
特許第3906232号公報
However, in this type of conventional exercise equipment for dogs, when trying to exercise the exercise dog such as underwater walking exercise, at least one caregiver is accompanied and attached to the dog. It is necessary to continue assisting by supporting the dog while holding a handle or the like provided on the jacket to be worn. At this time, the dog that is the subject of exercise is subjected to loads such as gravity and water flow, and the dog's own movement is added, so that the burden on the caregiver becomes extremely large particularly in the case of large breeds. There was a problem.
Japanese Patent No. 3906232

そこで、本発明者等は、運動用水槽の前端の上縁部に、運動主体である犬用の胴衣に一端が取り付けられるリードの他端を固定することができるように、リード固定部を設け、該犬に対して運動用水槽内において水中歩行運動をさせる際に、一端を上記リード固定部に、他端を該犬に装着した胴衣に取り付けることによって、介護者が犬用の胴衣の把手を把持していなくても、運動用水槽内において該犬をリードで支持することができるように構成した。   Therefore, the present inventors provide a lead fixing portion on the upper edge of the front end of the exercise water tank so that the other end of the lead attached to one end of the dog clothing which is an exercise subject can be fixed. When the dog is allowed to walk underwater in the water tank for exercise, one end is attached to the lead fixing portion and the other end is attached to the jacket worn on the dog so that the caregiver can grasp the dog's jacket. Even if the dog is not gripped, the dog can be supported by the reed in the exercise water tank.

ところが、運動主体である犬によって、或いは、犬の体調や状態によっては、該犬が運動用水槽内において該水槽の前端まで辿り着いてしまい、犬の運動をコントロールすることが困難となる。また、犬の大きさによっては、リードの長さが余ってしまうことがある。リードが長過ぎると運動主体である犬によっては、左右にふら付くことや左右のいずれかに片寄ってコンベア上から外れてしまい適正な運動をさせることができなくなることもある。或いは、水流に負けて流され、後部に行き過ぎて運動用水槽内の最後部に設けられた水の吸込口に引き寄せられて尻尾等が捕らえられて適正な運動が妨げられてしまうこともある。逆に、リードの長さが足りないと小型犬などの場合には、前足が上手く歩行面であるコンベア上に接地しなくなることがある。リード固定具から延びるリードの角度が、犬の背丈や体格に合わない場合には、リード自体が運動の邪魔になることもある。   However, depending on the dog that is the subject of exercise or depending on the physical condition and state of the dog, the dog reaches the front end of the water tank in the water tank for exercise, making it difficult to control the dog's movement. Depending on the size of the dog, the length of the lead may be excessive. If the lead is too long, depending on the dog that is the subject of exercise, the dog may sway to the left or right, or may move to either the left or right and become off the conveyor, preventing proper exercise. Alternatively, it may be swept away by the water flow, may go too far to the rear and be drawn to the water suction port provided at the rearmost part in the water tank for exercise to catch the tail or the like and prevent proper movement. Conversely, if the lead is not long enough, in the case of a small dog or the like, the front paws may not touch the ground on the conveyor which is a walking surface. If the angle of the lead extending from the lead fixture does not match the height or physique of the dog, the lead itself may interfere with the exercise.

本発明は、上記問題点に鑑みてなされたものであり、運動主体である犬に水中歩行運動をさせる犬用の運動器具において、該犬に装着される胴衣やその把手などを介護者が把持し続けなくても、多様な犬種や大きさに対応させながら該犬を運動用の水槽内において適宜に支持して、該犬が該水槽内において前に行き過ぎたり、後ろに行き過ぎたりすることや左右にふら付いたり、側壁に寄ってコンベア上から外れてしまうことを防止しつつ、該犬に適度な運動をさせることができるように構成された犬用の運動器具を提供せんとするものである。   The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and in a dog exercise apparatus that allows a dog, which is a subject of exercise, to walk underwater, a caregiver holds a jacket, a handle, and the like attached to the dog. Even if it does not continue, it supports the dog appropriately in the water tank for exercise while adapting to various dog breeds and sizes, and the dog goes too far forward or backward in the water tank. It is intended to provide an exercise device for dogs that is configured to allow the dog to exercise moderately while preventing it from wobbling to the left or right, or coming off the conveyor on the side walls. It is.
