Description

  The present invention relates to a measuring device and a measuring method for a racehorse training clock.

  A racehorse of a horse race is managed and trained by a stable related person such as a trainer who operates the stable in the stable, a training assistant, a training general worker, and a general staff, and starts running on a racetrack. Training of racehorses is performed at each course in the training center adjacent to the stable, and it is said that it is overtaken before the race, and at the Japan Central Racecourse, it is like a donut like an actual racetrack course. For example, a distance of 800 m to 1600 m is formed on a slope such as a dirt course, a turf course, a wood chip course, a new poly track course (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Honbaba”) and a slope course provided on an uphill slope. Generally, it is performed in accordance with the driving lap and the strength of training as instructed by the trainer. Hereinafter, the training courses such as Honbaba and Sakaji courses are collectively referred to as “training courses”.

  The running time when the above-mentioned passing is performed is announced as a passing-off clock (hereinafter referred to as “training clock”), and the trainer determines the condition and finish of the racehorse based on this training clock, and the betting ticket. For fans who want to buy a car, the race is predicted with reference to the training clock published on the horse race forecast paper. Thus, the training clock is extremely important information for holding a horse race.

  This training clock is shown as the running time of 200m, 400m, 600m, ... from this goal, such as 1 halon (200m), 2 halon, 3 halon, etc., based on the position of the goal provided in each course .

  At present, the time for measuring the training clock is a goal board (Halon) installed at the inner circumference of the course while a person who is making a prediction on a horse racing paper called Trackman looks into the binoculars from the seat. Rod), 1 halon, 2 halon, 3 halon, ... from this goal plate. It is done by manual measurement that the stopwatch button is operated at the timing when the racehorse passes through the halon rod standing upright. ing.

  On the other hand, on the slope course, a bar code is attached to the back of the racehorse, and this bar code is read by a bar code reader installed at a gate provided for each halon from the goal position to measure the passing time. (Patent Document 1).

  These training clocks are usually in units of seconds with a single decimal point, such as 12.5 seconds (200 m), 25.7 seconds (400 m), 38.0 seconds (600 m), and 53.2 seconds (800 m). It is measured to the tenth of a second.

  By the way, at present, training centers are set up in two regions, the Kanto region and the Kansai region, at the Japan Central Horse Racing Association, while 10 racetracks are scattered throughout the country from Hokkaido to Kyushu.

  Horse races are held on a predetermined schedule and are held every week at two or three of the ten locations. For example, during the summer season, it may be held simultaneously at the racetracks in Hokkaido and Kyushu. At this time, racehorses are preliminarily raced due to transportation to racetracks far away from stables in Kanto and Kansai. It is often done to stay in the stables prepared for the race, and to run on the race after training on the course of the racetrack.

  The training clock in this case is also carried out by manual measurement using a stopwatch based on a goal plate and a halon rod installed at the inner peripheral position of the racetrack course.

JP 2000-157091 A (see paragraph 0002)

  However, manual measurement using a stopwatch as in the above-mentioned conventional method is based on the angle (observation angle) between the observation position and the halon rod, because a person operates the stopwatch while looking at the halon rod from the observation position. Cannot accurately determine when the racehorse has passed the position of the halon rod, and in addition to the speed of human movement, the racehorse that runs at a high speed of about 50-60 km / h is the target of measurement. For this reason, errors are unavoidable in measurement in units of 0.1 seconds. In addition, there are individual differences in operating the stopwatch, so the measured training clock is not always accurate.

  On the other hand, conventional automatic measurement can solve the above-mentioned measurement error problem of manual measurement, but it is necessary to install a large gate and barcode reader in the course, and it is premised on organized operation. However, it cannot be used personally or simply for some racehorses or individual racehorses.

  In addition, the conventional automatic measurement method is difficult to apply to the present Baba. In other words, the width of the runway is as wide as about 15 meters or more, and it is difficult to install gates for attaching bar code readers to all courses. It can easily be seen that it is not practical to install a number of bar code readers side by side to read a bar code. In addition, when training on an actual racetrack course other than the training center, providing multiple gates with bar code readers on the racetrack course is a problem in terms of landscape in addition to the long width of the runway. It is also undesirable and more difficult and is not a more realistic method.

  As described above, the current automatic measurement method can only be applied to an extremely limited course or place such as a slope course.

  Furthermore, in the conventional automatic measurement, the training is usually performed in the early morning, but it may be dark in winter and the like, and the barcode may not be read and a measurement error may occur. Furthermore, since the racehorse that runs at a high speed as described above is the subject of measurement, and because the distance between the bar code reader provided at the gate and the racehorse is far away, the direction of the bar code may be slightly shifted. In the present situation, if a foreign matter covers even a part of the barcode, it is not recognized and a measurement error often occurs.

  The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, and it is not necessary to install large-scale facilities and devices regardless of the course of training, and a training horse training clock that can measure the training clock personally and simply more accurately. An object of the present invention is to provide a measuring device and a measuring method.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present inventor first discovered a method using GPS as a measuring method for a new racehorse training clock. When using GPS, by installing a GPS receiver on the racehorse or its rider, position data can be acquired using satellites, and the moving speed can be obtained from the transition of this position data. There is a merit that it is not necessary to arrange facilities such as gates and bar code readers in the training course.

  However, when GPS is used, the time travel distance of the racehorse can be obtained, but the reference position (the position of the halon stick indicating the goal position, which is set at 200 m intervals from the goal) is used as a measurement reference for the training clock. If you don't specify the position of the halon rod, you don't know which run time to measure.

  Even if the above-mentioned reference position can be specified, it is a training clock that has been publicly used and published by horse racing associations and related parties so far, in units of 1 halon (200m, 400m, 600m before the goal, ...・) It is difficult to set the time.

  In other words, when the training course is overtaken at the training course of the main racetrack, the actual running distance of the racehorse differs greatly depending on whether the vehicle runs on the inner side of the track or the outer side of the curve. Even if it is a straight course, the actual distance traveled differs depending on whether the vehicle is traveling diagonally or traveling straight. On the other hand, the time of one halon in the training clock is due to the passing time at the position of the shortest distance when the inner course of the course is run without waste, and the last (up) 600 m in the training clock is 37 for example. The 600m that ran in 0.0 seconds is actually a distance of 600m or more. In the racehorse, for example, running 600m means that it is actually running a distance of 600m or more. Even when measuring a training clock using GPS, the time must be corrected to one halon time (lap time at the distance indicated by the halon rod set in the training course, not the actual distance run) If it is, it cannot be used like a conventional training clock.

  As a result of intensive studies to provide a conventional training clock using GPS, the present inventor has calculated the time in units of halon in the training course based on the position data of the racehorse acquired using GPS. I found out how to measure. That is, the present invention relates to the following (1) to (14) racehorse training clock measuring apparatus and measuring method.

(1) A racehorse training clock measuring device,
Position data acquisition means for acquiring position data of the racehorse at a predetermined cycle using GPS;
An acquisition point arrangement means for arranging an acquisition point on a plane based on the position data acquired at the predetermined cycle,
A training course inner periphery arranging means for arranging the inner periphery of the training course on the plane,
A reference position placement means for placing a first reference position and a second reference position on the plane, which serve as a reference position for measuring a training time provided adjacent to the inner periphery of the training course at a predetermined interval;
Reference acquisition points for obtaining the acquisition point closest to the perpendicular extending from the inner periphery of the training course at each of the first reference position and the second reference position as the first reference acquisition point and the second reference acquisition point From the determining means, and the number of acquisition points between the first reference acquisition point and the second reference acquisition point and the acquisition cycle of the position data, the racehorse moves between the first reference position and the second reference position. An apparatus for measuring a racehorse training clock, comprising time calculating means for calculating a time required for movement.

  According to the racehorse training clock measuring device of (1) above, the position information of the racehorse that moves (runs) using GPS (Global Positioning System) is time-sequentially at a predetermined cycle (every fixed time). Because the racehorse or the training rider only needs to install a small device, there is no need to install any special equipment or equipment in the training course. The train clock can be measured as the time for each halon, regardless of whether it is trained by traveling along the route such as inside, center, or outside, or traveling diagonally or meandering.

  The position data in the present invention is data indicating the latitude and longitude for specifying the place where the racehorse is located, and in addition thereto, time data may be added. When adding time data, the time data included in the GPS signal may be used, or for example, a clock means for measuring time may be provided.

  As the predetermined period in the present invention, a shorter period is preferable, and more specifically, it is preferably set to 1 second or less. For example, if the position data of the racehorse is sequentially acquired every 1 second period, the training clock can be measured as time in seconds. Naturally, the shorter the cycle, the more accurate the time can be measured.

  In the present invention, “placement of acquisition points on a plane based on position data acquired at a predetermined period” conceptually means that the position data is acquired from position data acquired in time series at a predetermined period. It means to plot the position (acquired point) from time to time on the plane (on the map).

  In the present invention, “arranging the inner periphery of the training course on the plane” means, for example, line data (a set of position data) of the inner periphery (inner lattice) of the training course from map data or drawing data of the training course. This means that, based on this line data, the inner periphery of the training course is arranged on a plane. The map data, drawing data, and line data of the training course can be used, for example, stored in advance in the storage means of the measuring device or acquired from the Internet.

In the present invention, the first reference position and the second reference position are adjacent to the inner periphery of the training course and are erected at a predetermined interval (200 m interval), for example, a goal plate (halon bar indicating a goal position), a goal It refers to the position on the plane of the measurement reference position of the training clock, such as a halon rod 1 haron before the plate, a halon rod 2 haron before the goal plate, 3 haron before the goal plate,. Therefore, in the present invention, “the first reference position and the second reference position that are reference positions for measuring the training time provided at predetermined intervals in the training course are arranged on a plane” conceptually, On the plane, for example, a first reference position that is the position of the goal plate and a second reference position that is the position of, for example, a halon rod that is one halon before the goal plate and a halon rod that is two halon before the goal plate are plotted. Means that. The reference position data for plotting the first reference position and the second reference position can be used after being previously acquired using a GPS receiver and stored in the storage means of the measuring apparatus. If some reference position data can be known, other reference position data can be estimated from the drawing data and map data of the training course.

  In the present invention, “perpendicular line extending from the inner periphery of the training course at each of the first reference position and the second reference position” means, for example, the inner periphery of the training course TC as shown in FIG. (Inner Lattice) Perpendicular lines 110 to 117 with respect to the inner peripheral edge 100 drawn from the goal plate G, 1-7 halon rods 1H-7H, which are reference positions adjacent to 100, toward the outer peripheral edge (outer lattice) of the training course TC. That is. In the case where the inner peripheral edge 100 of the training course TC is a curve (curve), such as the positions of the 2 halon bar 2H, the 3 halon bar 3H, etc. at the reference position, the perpendicular lines 112, 113, etc. with respect to the tangent line be able to. In the present invention, the acquisition point closest to the perpendicular is obtained as the first reference acquisition point and the second reference acquisition point. More specifically, among the plurality of acquisition points plotted on the plane based on the position data acquired at the predetermined period, the acquisition points closest to the vertical lines 110 to 117 are respectively set to the first reference acquisition point and the second acquisition point. It means conceptually to obtain as a reference acquisition point. That is, the first reference acquisition point closest to the perpendicular extending from the first reference position (by nearest projection) is set to one end of the halon unit (1 halon, 2 halon,...) In the training clock and the second reference position. The closest second reference acquisition point is regarded as the other end. For example, when the first reference position is the position of the goal plate G and the second reference position is the position of the halon rod 1H one halon before the goose plate, the first reference acquisition point at one end is the goal passing point It is assumed that the second reference acquisition point, which is the other end, is a passing point one halon ahead.

  In the present invention, the racehorse moves between the first reference position and the second reference position based on the number of acquisition points between the first reference acquisition point and the second reference acquisition point and the acquisition cycle of the position data. “Calculating the time required to do” means obtaining the number of acquisition points existing between the first reference acquisition point and the second reference acquisition point, and calculating the first reference from the number and the acquisition cycle of the position data. This means that the time required for the racehorse to move between the position and the second reference position is calculated. Specifically, for example, the acquisition period is 1 Hz (1 second), and the first reference acquisition point Assuming that 14 acquisition points including these reference points exist between the first reference position and the second reference acquisition point, there are (14-1) racehorses between the first reference position and the second reference position × 1. It means that it has run in seconds = 13 seconds. That is, it is possible to measure that the 1 halon in front of the goal point traveled in 13 seconds.

(2) A racehorse training clock measuring device,
Position data acquisition means for acquiring position data of the racehorse at a predetermined cycle using GPS;

At each of the first reference position and the second reference position, a pair of acquisition points that are closest to each other so as to sandwich the perpendicular on both sides of the perpendicular extending from the inner periphery of the training course through the reference position are the first acquisition point and the second acquisition point. 2 acquisition point determination means to obtain as acquisition points;
A reference point determining means for obtaining the intersection of the straight line passing through the first acquisition point and the second acquisition point and the perpendicular as a first reference point and a second reference point, respectively;
The ratio of the distance between the first reference point and the first acquisition point or the second acquisition point to the distance between the first acquisition point and the second acquisition point, and the second reference point and the second acquisition point. The ratio of the distance between one acquisition point or the second acquisition point is obtained, and one period for acquiring the position data is apportioned by these ratios, and the first acquisition point is obtained for each of the first reference point and the second reference point. Correction time determining means for obtaining the time required to move between and the time required to move between the second acquisition points, and between the first reference point and the second reference point or the above The number of acquisition points between the perpendicular passing through the first reference position and the perpendicular passing through the second reference position, the acquisition cycle of the position data, and the first reference point and the second obtained by the correction time determining means The time required to move between the first acquisition points or the second acquisition point for each reference point A racehorse training clock comprising time calculation means for calculating the time required for the racehorse to move between the first reference position and the second reference position from the time required for the racehorse. measuring device.

  According to the measurement device for a racehorse training clock of (2) above, in addition to the same effects as the measurement device of (1) above, it is possible to measure a training clock for each halon with higher accuracy.

  That is, in the measuring apparatus of (2) above, in each of the perpendiculars to the inner peripheral edge of the training course extending from the first reference position and the second reference position, the perpendiculars are closest to the perpendicular on both sides of the perpendicular (by nearest projection). The racehorse moves between the first reference position and the second reference position by further subdividing between the pair of acquisition points, calculating the time required for each divided part and correcting it to a more accurate time. It is possible to obtain the time required for this.

  In the present invention, the first acquisition of the pair of acquisition points closest to each other so as to sandwich the perpendicular on both sides of the perpendicular extending from the inner periphery of the training course at each of the first reference position and the second reference position. The term “determined as a point and a second acquisition point” will be explained by taking the first reference position as an example. Conceptually, both sides of the perpendicular on the plane are projected on the plane by the closest projection to the normal of the training course extending from the first reference position. This means that one of the pair of acquisition points arranged so as to sandwich the vertical line closest to the perpendicular is the first acquisition point and the other is the second acquisition point.

  In the present invention, “determining the intersection of the straight line passing through the first acquisition point and the second acquisition point and the perpendicular as the first reference point and the second reference point, respectively” means that the first reference position and the second reference position are In each of the perpendicular lines extending from each of the lines, the intersection points of a straight line connecting the pair of first acquisition points and the second acquisition points sandwiching the vertical lines are respectively obtained as a first reference point and a second reference point.

  In the present invention, the ratio of the distance between the first reference point and the first acquisition point or the second acquisition point to the distance between the first acquisition point and the second acquisition point, and the second reference point. And a ratio of the distance between the first acquisition point or the second acquisition point and apportioning one cycle of acquiring the position data by these ratios, and for each of the first reference point and the second reference point “Determining the time required to move to or from the first acquisition point or the time required to move to or from the second acquisition point” Is the distance between the first acquisition point and the first reference point relative to the distance between the first acquisition point and the second acquisition point on the plane (which can be calculated from the latitude and longitude data of each acquisition point) and / or Obtain the ratio of the distance between the two acquisition points and the first reference point, and the distance between the first acquisition point and the second acquisition point moves in one cycle Therefore, one cycle is apportioned by the ratio and the distance between the first acquisition point and the first reference point and / or the distance between the second acquisition point and the first reference point is moved ( It means finding the time required to travel. For example, one cycle is 1 second, and the ratio of the distance between the first acquisition point and the first reference point or the distance between the first acquisition point and the second acquisition point to the distance between the first acquisition point and the second acquisition point is If 0.3, the racehorse has moved between the first acquisition point and the first reference point in 1 second × 0.3 = 0.3 second. In other words, when the racehorse runs straight at the same speed for 1 second between the first acquisition point and the second acquisition point, it is calculated as an accurate time, and some speed change or skew occurs. However, if the accuracy of the desired training clock is used, the error is in a negligible range.

  In the present invention, “the number of acquisition points between the first reference point and the second reference point or between the perpendicular passing through the first reference position and the perpendicular passing through the second reference position and the acquisition cycle of the position data” And the time required to move between the first acquisition point and the second acquisition point for each of the first reference point and the second reference point obtained by the correction time determining means and the second acquisition point. "Calculating the time required for the racehorse to move between the first reference position and the second reference position from the time required for" is conceptually, but first, the first reference point And the number of acquisition points existing between the second reference point, and the time is calculated from this number and the acquisition cycle of the position data, and then calculated at the calculated time as described above. The acquisition point (first acquisition point) on the first reference point side of the acquisition point existing between the first reference point and the second reference point Or the time required to move between the second acquisition point) and the first reference point, and further move between the other end acquisition point calculated in the same manner and the second reference point. If the time required is added, it means that the time required for the racehorse to move between the first reference position and the second reference position can be calculated.

It is explanatory drawing for demonstrating the measurement reference position used as the object of the measurement distance of the training clock in Example 3 of this invention.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  Referring to FIG. 2, the measurement device for the training clock according to the first embodiment includes a measurement computer 10 and a GPS receiver 14 built in the computer as a measurement unit (position data acquisition device), and an analysis unit (time An analysis computer 20 is included as a measurement device. Although not shown, the measurement computer 10 is connected to an antenna for receiving GPS data and includes a driving battery (battery).

  Here, the measurement computer 10 and the analysis computer 20 are separate computers. However, a single computer may be provided with both functions. Alternatively, the GPS receiver 14 may be separated from the measurement computer 10 and the position data received by the GPS receiver may be transferred or transmitted to the measurement computer.

  The measurement computer 10 is attached to a rider (a jockey) or a racehorse, for example, a torso for measuring position data. As the measurement computer 10, various computers can be widely used. For example, a small or portable computer such as a PDA (personal digital assistant) can be preferably used. When using a PDA, the size is about 12 x 6 x 1 cm or less, and the weight is about 150 g or less, making it compact and lightweight, reducing the burden of training a racehorse or rider, and generating accidents such as injuries. Can be prevented.

  The measurement computer 10 includes a CPU 11, a ROM 12, a RAM 13, a GPS receiving unit 14, a data transmitting unit 15, and the like. The ROM 12 stores control programs and necessary data in advance, and the RAM 13 serves as a work memory and a buffer memory. The used and generated data, the acquired data, etc. are temporarily stored, and the GPS receiving unit 14 receives position data (latitude data, longitude data and time data) from a GPS satellite in a predetermined cycle and stores them in the ROM 12 or RAM 13. The data transmission unit 15 transfers the position data acquired (received) by the GPS reception unit 14 to the analysis computer 20 via the dedicated cable 30. The position data can also be transmitted to the analysis computer 20 by wireless communication. In this case, the data transmission unit can be eliminated, and the position data is transferred from the measurement computer 10 to the analysis computer 20 via the storage medium. May be.

  The GPS receiver 14 is position detecting means for detecting the current position of the racehorse, and receives a signal from a GPS satellite, for example, at a predetermined period of 1 Hz (every fixed time). Position data including coordinates (latitude data and longitude data) of the current position is output to the CPU 11. Here, the position data includes altitude data and time data by an electronic clock mounted on a GPS satellite in addition to latitude data and longitude data. Further, the position data may include horse identification data for identifying the racehorse. The identification data can be input and registered in advance in the measurement computer 10. Furthermore, date information may be included in the time data.

  Note that a reader for reading horse identification data (ID) in a non-contact manner from an ID chip embedded in the horse body of the racehorse is built in the measurement computer 10, and the ID information and the position data are used for the measurement computer 10. Or if it records and analyzes with the computer 20 for analysis, it will become unnecessary to input the identification data of a racehorse separately.

  The measurement computer 10 records the position data received by the GPS receiver 14 in the ROM 12, RAM 13 or memory dedicated to data storage. The coordinates as position data are stored in association with the acquisition time and / or racehorse identification data, respectively.

  The recorded position data is transferred (transmitted) from the measurement computer 10 to the analysis computer 20 and taken into the analysis computer 20. As described above, the position data is stored in the measurement computer 10 with a portable storage medium, temporarily stored therein, and the storage medium is mounted in the analysis computer 20 and read by the analysis computer 20. You may make it take in.

  The analyzing computer 20 is for analyzing position data, measuring (analyzing) and outputting a training clock as a training result of the racehorse. As the analysis computer 20, for example, a personal computer can be used. The analysis computer 40 includes a CPU 21, ROM 22, RAM 23, HDD 24, data receiving unit 25, input unit 26, output unit 27, and the like. The ROM 22 stores a control program (including an analysis program) and necessary data in advance. The RAM 23 is used as a work memory and a buffer memory, and temporarily stores generated data and read data. The HDD 24 records position data, analysis data, and the like. The data receiver 25 receives the position data acquired by the measurement computer 10 from the data transmitter 15. The input unit 26 is a keyboard or the like, and the output unit 27 is an image display device, a printer, or the like for outputting a training result (clock), a trajectory that the racehorse has moved, and the like.

  In the analysis computer 20, the goal board in each training course, the latitude data, longitude data and altitude data position information (coordinates) of each halon bar, and map information of the training course are stored in the ROM 22 or the HDD 24 in advance.

  Next, an example of the operation of the measuring apparatus according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

  First, position data is measured (acquired) at predetermined intervals (every predetermined time) by the measurement computer 10 attached to the racehorse or the rider and stored sequentially (step S11). In other words, the position data during the training follow-up in a predetermined training course is sampled by the GPS receiver 14 every second (1 Hz), for example, and the sampled position data is recorded in the measurement computer 10 as needed. Note that the shorter (smaller) the measurement cycle is, the more accurate the training clock can be analyzed and measured.

  Next, when the training follow-up is completed and the measurement of the position data is completed, the data transmission unit 15 of the measurement computer 10 is connected to the data reception unit 25 of the analysis computer 20 via the dedicated cable 30 to obtain the position data. The data is taken into the analysis computer 20. This position data can be imported by wireless transmission after measurement is completed by communication via the Internet, or after every measurement or at a predetermined timing, and the position data is stored in a memory card or the like. It can also be performed by storing the data in a medium and causing the analysis computer 20 to read the position data from the storage medium.

  When the acquisition of the position data is completed, the analysis computer 20 performs the analysis. First, as shown in FIG. 4, the position at the time of each data acquisition is sequentially plotted as the acquisition point 101 on the plane coordinates based on the position data (step S12). Next, the inner peripheral edge (inner lattice) 100 of the training course TC is drawn on the plane coordinates (step S13). The line data (position data) for drawing the inner peripheral edge 100 may be stored in advance in the storage means (ROM 22 or the like) of the analysis computer 20.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1 or 4, based on the reference position data stored in advance on the plane coordinates, the first reference position (goal plate) G and the second reference position (1 halon stick: goal 1H, 3rd reference position (2 halon stick: halon stick installed 400m before the goal (board)) 2H, 4th reference position (3 halon stick) : Plotting 3H,... (Haron rod installed 600 m before the goal (plate)) (step S14). Each of the training courses TC has a halong stick (goal plate G, 1 halon bar 1H, 2 halon bar 2H, 3 halon bar 3H, etc. every 200 m (1 halon) along and adjacent to the inner peripheral edge 100. .) Is installed, and the reference position data of these halons is measured and analyzed in advance using, for example, the measurement computer 10 or the GPS receiver which is the position data acquisition device of the present invention in a training course. It can be stored in the storage means of the computer 20.

  Then, at each of the first reference position G, the second reference position 1H, the third reference position 2H,..., The perpendiculars 110 to 117 (FIG. 10) with respect to the inner peripheral edge 100 extending from the inner peripheral edge 100 of the training course TC through the reference position. 1) and the nearest acquisition point (reference acquisition point) to these perpendicular lines 110 to 117 is obtained by nearest projection. Here, the first reference position G and the second reference position 1H will be described as an example with reference to FIG. First, it passes through the first reference position G (goal board) and is perpendicular to the inner peripheral edge 100 of the training course TC, and from the inner peripheral edge 100 to the inside of the training course TC (the outer peripheral edge (outer lattice) of the training course TC). The acquisition point 101 closest to the extending perpendicular line 110 is obtained as the first reference acquisition point 101A (step S15). The distance between the perpendicular 110 and the acquisition point 101 is the shortest distance depending on the distance between the intersection of the perpendicular and the perpendicular 110 and the acquisition point 101. Let the acquisition point 101 be the closest first reference acquisition point 101A.

  Similarly, the second reference acquisition point 101B is obtained as the acquisition point 101 closest to the perpendicular 111 extending from the second reference position 1H (1 halon bar) (step S16).

  Then, the number of acquisition points existing between the first reference acquisition point 101A and the second reference acquisition point 101B is obtained, and the first reference position G and the second reference position 1H are obtained from this number and the acquisition cycle of the position data. The time required for the racehorse to move between the two is calculated. For example, if the acquisition cycle is 1 Hz (1 second) and there are 14 acquisition points including these reference points between the first reference acquisition point 101A and the second reference acquisition point 101B, the first reference position G This means that the racehorse ran in (14-1) × 1 second = 13 seconds between 1 halon between the (vertical 110) and the second reference position 1H (perpendicular 111).

  Next, another example of the operation of the measuring device for a training clock according to the present invention will be described as a second embodiment with reference to FIG. The hardware configuration of the measuring apparatus is the same as that of the first embodiment, and is denoted by the same reference numerals in the following description.

  First, the measurement computer 10 measures (acquires) position data at a predetermined cycle and sequentially stores it (step S21). In other words, the position data during the training follow-up in a predetermined training course is sampled by the GPS receiver 14 every second (1 Hz), for example, and the sampled position data is recorded in the measurement computer 10 as needed. Note that the shorter (smaller) the measurement cycle is, the more accurate the training clock can be analyzed and measured.

  Next, when the training follow-up is completed and the measurement of the position data is completed, the measurement computer 10 is connected to the analysis computer 20 via the dedicated cable 30 and the position data is taken into the analysis computer 20. This position data can be imported by wireless transmission after measurement is completed by communication via the Internet, or after every measurement or at a predetermined timing, and the position data is stored in a memory card or the like. It can also be performed by storing the data in a medium and causing the analysis computer 20 to read the position data from the storage medium.

  When the acquisition of the position data is completed, the analysis computer 20 performs the analysis. First, as shown in FIG. 4, the position at the time of each data acquisition is sequentially plotted as the acquisition point 101 on the plane coordinates based on the position data (step S22). Next, the inner peripheral edge (inner lattice) 100 of the training course TC is drawn on the plane coordinates (step S23). The line data (position data) for drawing the inner peripheral edge 100 may be stored in advance in the storage means (ROM 22 or the like) of the analysis computer 20.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1 or 4, based on the reference position data stored in advance on the plane coordinates, the first reference position (goal plate) G and the second reference position (1 halon stick: goal 1H, 3rd reference position (2 halon stick: halon stick installed 400m before the goal (board)) 2H, 4th reference position (3 halon stick) : Plotting 3H,... (Haron rod installed 600 m before the goal (plate)) (step S24). The reference position data of the goal plate G, 1 halon rod 1H, 2 halon rod 2H, 3 halon rod 3H,... Is, for example, the measurement computer 10 that is the position data acquisition device of the present invention in advance in the training course. It can be measured using a GPS receiver or the like and stored in the analysis computer 20.

  Then, at each of the first reference position G, the second reference position 1H, the third reference position 2H,..., The perpendiculars 110 to 117 (with respect to the inner peripheral edge 100 extending from the inner peripheral edge 100 of the training course TC through the reference position ( 1), on both sides of these vertical lines 110 to 117, a pair of acquisition points closest to the vertical lines 110 to 117 and positioned so as to sandwich the vertical lines 110 to 117 are obtained by nearest projection, A pair of acquisition points is defined as a first acquisition point and a second acquisition point. Hereinafter, the first reference position G and the second reference position 1H will be described as an example with reference to FIG. First, as shown in FIG. 7A, it passes through the first reference position G (goal board) and is perpendicular to the inner peripheral edge 100 of the training course TC, and from the inner peripheral edge 100 within the training course TC (the training course TC). A pair of acquisition points closest to the vertical line 110 on both sides of the vertical line 110 extending to the outer peripheral edge (outer lattice) is determined as a first acquisition point Y1 and a second acquisition point Z1. The distance between the perpendicular 110 and the acquisition point 101 is the shortest distance depending on the distance between the intersection of the perpendicular and the perpendicular 110 and the acquisition point 101. Let the acquisition point 101 be the first acquisition point Y1 and the second acquisition point Z1 that are closest on the left side (front side in the movement direction) and the right side (rear side in the movement direction). Similarly, on both sides of the vertical line 111 extending from the second reference position 1H (one halon bar), a pair of acquisition points 101 closest to the vertical line 111 is obtained as the first acquisition point Y2 and the second acquisition point Z2 (step S25). ).

  Next, as shown in FIG. 7B, at the first reference position G, on the plane coordinates, the straight line connecting the first acquisition point Y1 and the second acquisition point Z1 and the first reference position G pass through the inner periphery. An intersection point X1 with the perpendicular line 110 extending from 100 is obtained and set as the first reference point X1. Similarly, as shown in FIG. 7C, at the second reference position, a straight line connecting the first acquisition point Y2 and the second acquisition point Z2 and a perpendicular 111 extending from the inner periphery 100 through the second reference position 1H. Is obtained as a second reference point X2 (step S26).

  Then, the first reference point X1, the second reference point X2,..., The closest first acquisition points Y1, Y2 and the second acquisition points Z1, Z2, and the first reference point X1 or the second reference point. The ratio of the distance (length) to X2 is obtained, and the correction time is obtained from the product of the ratio and the position data acquisition cycle (1 Hz = 1 second) (step S27). Specifically, the first reference point X1 will be described. As shown in FIG. 7B, conceptually, the first acquisition point Y1 adjacent to the first reference point X1 adjacent to the first reference point X1 on the plane coordinates and the first reference point X1 The distance (line segment y1 + z1) between the two acquisition points Z1 is calculated from the position data (latitude / longitude data) of the acquisition points Y1 and Z1, while the distance between the first acquisition point Y1 and the first reference point X1. The distance (line segment y1) is calculated similarly. And the distance (between Y1-X1) between the 1st acquisition point Y1 and the 1st standard point X1 to the distance (distance between Y1-Z1) between the 1st acquisition point Y1 and the 2nd acquisition point Z1. Find the ratio of (distance). Since the distance between the 1st acquisition point Y1 and the 2nd acquisition point Z1 is the distance which the racehorse moved in 1 period (for example, 1 second), if it divides 1 period with the ratio concerned, the 1st acquisition will be carried out. The time required for the racehorse to move (run) the distance between the point Y1 and the first reference point X1 can be obtained. For example, one cycle is 1 second (1 Hz), and the ratio of the distance between the first acquisition point Y1 and the first reference point X1 to the distance between the first acquisition point Y1 and the second acquisition point Z1 is 0. Assuming 2, the racehorse has moved between the first acquisition point Y1 and the first reference point X1 (goal point) in 1 second × 0.2 = 0.2 seconds. Similarly, the second reference point X2 will be described. As shown in FIG. 7C, conceptually, the first acquisition point Y2 adjacent to the second reference point X2 on the plane coordinates and the second acquisition point are adjacent. The distance between the point Z2 (line segment y2 + z2) is calculated from the position data (latitude and longitude data) of the acquisition points Y2 and Z2, while the distance between the second acquisition point Z2 and the second reference point X2 ( The line segment z2) is calculated similarly. And the distance (between Z2 and X2) between the second acquisition point Z2 and the second reference point X2 with respect to the distance between the first acquisition point Y2 and the second acquisition point Z2 (distance between Y2 and Z2). Find the ratio of (distance). Then, if one cycle is apportioned with this ratio, the time required for the racehorse to move (run) the distance between the second reference point X2 and the second acquisition point Z2 can be obtained. For example, one cycle is 1 second (1 Hz), and the ratio of the distance between the second acquisition point Z2 and the second reference point X2 to the distance between the first acquisition point Y2 and the second acquisition point Z2 is 0. If 6, the racehorse has moved between the second reference point X2 (1H point) and the second acquisition point Z2 in 1 second × 0.6 = 0.6 seconds. The same processing is performed at the third reference point X3, the fourth reference point X4, and the like.

  7A, between the first reference point X1 and the second reference point X2, or between the perpendicular 110 extending from the first reference position G and the perpendicular 111 extending from the second reference position 1H. And the time required for the racehorse to move (run) the distance between the first acquisition point Y1 and the first reference point X1, and the second reference point X2 and the second reference point X2. 2 It took to move from the second reference point X2 to the first reference point X1 by the correction time, which is the time required for the racehorse to move (run) the distance between the acquisition point Z2. Time is obtained and output to the output unit 27 (step S28). Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7A, the number of acquisition points (12) existing between the first reference point X1 and the second reference point X2 (between the vertical line 110 and the vertical line 111). Between the first acquisition point Y1 and the first reference point X1 calculated as described above at the calculated time, and the time is calculated from the number and the position data acquisition cycle. The time required for the racehorse to move (run) and the time required for the racehorse to move (run) the distance between the second reference point X2 and the second acquisition point Z2 In addition, the time required for the racehorse to move between the first reference position G and the second reference position 1H can be calculated. In the above example, if the number of acquisition points existing between the first reference point X1 and the second reference point X2 (between the vertical line 110 and the vertical line 111) is 12, and one cycle is 1 second, (12-1) × 1 second = 11 seconds is the time required to move the distance between the acquisition point Y1 and the acquisition point Z2, and this includes the first acquisition point Y1 and the first reference point X1 (goal) 0.2 seconds which is the time required to move the distance between the second reference point X2 (1H point) and the second acquisition point Z2 If the time of 0.6 seconds is added, the time required for the racehorse to move 200 m between the first reference position G (goal) and the second reference position 1H (1 halon bar), that is, 11 + 0 .2 + 0.6 = 11.8 seconds can be calculated.

  In the same manner as described above, the time required for the racehorse to move 400 m between the first reference position G (goal plate) and the third reference position 2H (2 halon bar), the first reference position G (goal) The time required for the racehorse to travel 600 m between the plate (4) and the fourth reference position 3H (3 halon rod) is obtained and output to the output unit 27 as a training clock. The course (map) and the trajectory of the racehorse traveling on the course (map) (acquisition points or lines connecting the acquisition points or approximate curves) are also output to the output unit 27.

  Further, the time required for the racehorse to move 200 m between the second reference position 1H (1 halon bar) and the third reference position 2H (2 halon bar), the third reference position 2H (2 halon bar) And the time required for the racehorse to move through 200 m between the fourth reference position 3H (3 haron rods) and the like may be obtained and output to the output unit. 2 The time required for the racehorse to move 200 m between the reference position 1H (1 halon bar) and the third reference position 2H (2 halon bar) is expressed as the first reference position G and the third reference position 2H. The time required for moving the raceway between the first reference position G (goal) and the second reference position 1H (1 halon rod) is calculated. Similarly, the third reference position 2H (2 halon bar) and the fourth reference position 3H (3 ha) The time required for the racehorse to move 200m between the first reference position G and the fourth reference position 3H is obtained, and the time required for the first reference is determined from this. The second reference position 1H (1 halon stick) obtained by subtracting the time required for the racehorse to move 200 m between the position G (goal) and the second reference position 1H (1 halon stick) and the above. ) And the third reference position 2H (2 halon rods) is calculated by subtracting the time required for the racehorse to move, so that a clock every 200 m (halon) is obtained retroactively from the goal. May be.
