As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the hitting medium degree determination device 1 of the present embodiment is used, for example, for golf hitting practice, and has a center portion as a target region for hitting a golf ball. A substantially circular target portion 2 formed by stretching a net-like member on a frame 2a, and a vibrating member which is arranged at a predetermined portion of the target portion 2 and at least a surface side of which is covered with a cushioning material and detects vibration of the target portion 2 Vibration sensors 3a to 3e, which are a plurality of vibration detecting means for generating detection signals corresponding to the magnitudes of the sensors, are mounted on the back side of the target unit 2, and are based on the detection signals generated by the vibration sensors 3a to 3e. A transmitting unit 4 for generating data including vibration information and transmitting the data on radio waves, and receiving the radio waves and extracting the data and hitting any part of the target unit 2 with a ball. It is composed of a judgment control unit 5 for controlling an indicator (to be described later) based on the judgment result and a number of indicator lights, and is arranged behind the target unit 2 by a net 9 to be described later. For example, when it is determined by the control of the determination control unit 5 that the ball hits the target area of the target unit 2, for example, a large-sized display 6 for displaying a character of “this”, and a sun for supplying power to the transmission unit 4 It has a battery 7 and a solar cell 8 that supplies power to the determination control unit 5 and the display 6. Further, a net 9 is provided so as to surround a predetermined area near the front side of the display 6 from at least the side surface, including the turn at bat A (see FIG. 2) and the target portion 2. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the target portion 2 and the display 6 are mounted so as to be suspended by wires 11 and 14 by steel columns 11 and 12, respectively. The net 9 can also be supported by a steel column, not shown, like the target portion 2 and the like. Further, the vibration sensor 3a is arranged in a target area at the center of the target unit 2, and the vibration sensors 3b to 3e are arranged at predetermined positions on the periphery of the target unit 2, respectively. The transmitting unit 4 receives the detection signals generated by the vibration sensors 3a to 3e, performs A / D conversion, and arranges the signals corresponding to the respective vibration sensors in a predetermined order to hit the ball. A transmission data generation unit 15 for generating data including vibration information of the transmission, a transmission data processing unit 16 for encoding the data generated by the transmission data generation unit 15 and transmitting the data on radio waves, and an antenna 17. Have. The determination control unit 5 also includes an antenna 18, a reception data processing unit 19 that extracts encoded data from a radio wave received by the antenna 18, and a data transmitted from the reception data processing unit 19 based on a predetermined control program. The received data is taken in, the magnitude of the vibration of the vibration sensor 3a or each of the vibration sensors 3b to 3e is calculated, and from this calculation result, which part of the target section 2 is hit with the ball and at what strength. The controller 21 causes the display 6 to display, for example, a predetermined display pattern, a message, and the like based on the determination result, and the storage unit 22 that stores a display pattern such as a control program and a plurality of message sentences. Have. The storage unit 22 has, for example, an EEPROM, and is configured such that a part of the storage content can be rewritten using an input device (not shown). Next, a description will be given of a hitting ball practice by the hitting medium degree determination device 1 of the present embodiment. The trainee stands at bat A and hits a golf ball toward a target area in the center of the target section 2. Here, if the ball hits the target area, the detection signal from the vibration sensor 3a becomes the largest, and if the ball hits near the position where the vibration sensor 3e is located at the peripheral edge, the detection from the vibration sensor 3e occurs. The signal is the largest. Thus, the combination of the magnitude of the detection signal from each of the vibration sensors 3a to 3e differs depending on the position where the ball hits and the strength of the impact. The transmission data generation unit 15 receives each detection signal, performs A / D conversion, and arranges the signals corresponding to, for example, the vibration sensors 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, and 3e, and creates transmission data including vibration information. Then, the transmission data processing unit 16 encodes a series of data and transmits the data on radio waves. In the determination control unit 5, the encoded data is extracted from the radio wave received by the reception data processing unit 19, and the controller 21 determines the vibration of each vibration sensor based on the data sent from the reception data processing unit 19. The size is calculated, and it is determined which part of the target section 2 has been hit by the ball and with what strength. For example, when it is determined that the ball has hit the target area in the center of the target section 2, Then, the display 6 displays, for example, the character of “this”. The practitioner who sees this display gets satisfaction and knows that he has made no mistake in his way of hitting. As described above, according to the present embodiment, for example, the result of hitting the ball can be reliably and accurately determined, and the practice can be performed happily.

Further, since power is supplied from the solar cells 7 and 8 to the transmission unit 4, the determination control unit 5, and the display unit 6, the transmission unit 4, the determination control unit 5, and the display unit 6 can be installed anywhere, regardless of the presence or absence of a commercial power supply. It will be easier. Further, since the target portion 2 is mostly made of a net-like member, it can withstand strong winds, and the frame 2a is made of stainless steel or the like, so that it is robust. Further, since the transmitting section 4 and the solar cell 7 are arranged on the back side of the target section 2, the transmitting section 4 and the solar cell 7 are not damaged by hitting a ball. Further, since the display 6 is disposed on the back side of the net, the display 6 is not damaged by hitting the ball. Further, since the target portion 2 is hung by a wire, attachment and detachment is easy. Further, the display and the like on the display 6 can be easily replaced, and maintenance is easy. Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail above, the specific configuration of the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in the present embodiment, a case has been described in which the transmission and reception of data between the transmission unit 4 and the determination control unit 5 is performed using radio waves. However, in the present invention, an infrared communication system may be used. . Alternatively, a wired connection may be used. Further, the power supply of the device according to the present embodiment is not limited to solar cells 7 and 8 described above, and it is of course possible to use a commercial power supply that can supply AC 100 V. Further, the installation positions of the determination control unit 5 and the display 6 may be added not only behind the net 9 but also behind the turn at bat, for example. Further, in addition to the display by the display 6, a buzzer rotating light may be illuminated, or sound may be output from a speaker. Furthermore, the buzzer rotating light may be illuminated or the sound may be output from the speaker together with the display by the display 6. The display pattern of the display 6 may be automatically changed depending on the temperature and time.
