  Hereinafter, an embodiment for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an average platform 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a plan view showing pedestals 5A and 5B and a transfer member 2 according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. It is a top view of the bases 5A and 5B arrange | positioned.
In the average platform 1 of the present embodiment, the transfer member 2 is stretched over the front and rear pedestals 5A and 5B. However, the grooves 5 are formed in the pedestals 5A and 5B, and the movement of the transfer member 2 is restricted. The transfer member 2 is a round bar-shaped bamboo and has a node 2a. The bamboo delivery member 2 is fired in the round bar state. If it has knots 2a, it may be used as it is, but by firing, thorns and the like can be eliminated, and it becomes hygienic, while maintaining the amount of bending and making it difficult to bend. Further, the hardness can be adjusted depending on how the transfer member 2 is fired. However, where the hardness is desired to be increased, the hardness can be adjusted by repeating firing and subsequent cooling.

  The pedestals 5A and 5B are wooden pedestals 5A and 5B having a predetermined thickness, and a V-shaped or substantially U-shaped groove 3 is formed in the width direction on the surface. The round bar-shaped transfer member 2 is disposed so as not to contact the bottom of the groove 3 (FIGS. 9A to 9D). This is to keep the passing member 2 from bending and shaking. The round bar passing member is arranged so as to contact the V-shaped or substantially U-shaped groove 3 at two points on the outer periphery thereof and not to contact the bottom of the groove 3. Here, the locking protrusion 4 may be provided in the groove 3 (FIGS. 9C and 9D), but even if it is not provided, the movement of the transfer member 3 is restricted (FIG. 9A). b)). The groove 3 may be V-shaped or U-shaped, but is only in contact with a part of the outer periphery of the transfer member 2 so that the bending of the transfer member 2 is effectively exhibited. At this time, an elastic member (such as a rubber sheet) 7 may be arranged to adjust the bending and shaking (FIG. 8B). The elastic member 7 may be arranged in this way, but by arranging the transfer member 2 so as not to contact the bottom of the groove 3 (FIGS. 9A to 9D), the elastic member 7 is not provided. However, the effect of arranging such an elastic member can be exhibited. Moreover, the arrangement | positioning which sinks about 1/3 to 1/2 from the lower half of the round bar-shaped delivery member 2 may be sufficient (FIG. 9 (a) (b)), and you may make it fit in the said groove | channel 3, It may be fitted so that all of the above enters the groove 3. Further, as shown in FIG. 8 (a), a groove 10 on which the node 2a of the bamboo 2 is caught may be formed in the groove 3, and in this case, the role of facilitating bending and the removal from the groove 3 even if bent. The situation can be prevented.

FIG. 4 is a view showing the relationship between the long hole 8 formed in the transfer member 2 and the locking projection 4 of the bases 5A and 5B. The long hole 8 is formed in the longitudinal direction of the transfer member 2 and is movable with respect to the locking projection 4 of the bases 5A and 5B. FIGS. 9C and 9D are examples in which the locking projection 4 is locked in the long hole 8. Although it may be oval or circular, it needs to be larger than the diameter of the locking projection 4. When the player rides and applies a load, the bamboo transfer member 2 bends, but the long hole 8 moves along the locking projection 4 so that the bending is not hindered. The locking protrusion 4 is provided at the apex of the groove 3, but is not necessarily provided at the apex, and can be provided in a V-shaped inclined portion of the groove or a curved portion of the U-shaped groove.
When playing with the average platform 1 having the above configuration, the two pedestals 5 </ b> A and 5 </ b> B are respectively disposed before and after the transfer member 2, and the transfer member 2 is disposed in the groove 3 of the pedestal 2. At this time, the locking projection 4 is fitted into the long hole 8 of the transfer member 2 (FIG. 2). Although the locking by the locking protrusion 4 can enhance safety, the locking protrusion 4 is not used and the deep groove 3 is used, or the groove 10 where the knot 2a of the bamboo 2 is caught. Is formed in the groove 3 (FIG. 8 (a)), or the elastic member 7 is disposed, etc., to adjust the bending or shaking of the transfer member 2.
When a player crosses the transfer member 2 with bare feet or socks, the transfer member 2 bends downward due to the player's weight. The effect of nourishing is extremely high. Here, as shown in FIG. 7, when the transfer member 2 is bent, the bent portion is attached to the pedestal so as to contact the ground.

In the present invention, when the bending angle of the transfer member is increased, it is attached so as to come into contact with the ground G, so that there is no danger of falling and injured, and it is possible to concentrate on training with a sense of balance.
And you can enjoy the feel of bamboo when you cross with bare feet and socks. By stepping on the bamboo node 2a, the sole can be stimulated, or the toes can grasp the bamboo node 2a and enjoy the feeling of the node 2a. 6 (a) and 6 (b) show an example in which a child or an elderly person advances the transfer member 2 straight, but the transfer member 2 may be used to walk sideways. If you walk sideways with bare feet using this sidewalk, you will also stimulate the soles of your feet. In this way, a natural material called bamboo having knots 2a can be used to cultivate a sense of balance by making use of the sense of bare feet.
For example, when used by a child or an elderly person, it is preferable that the transfer member 2 is attached to the bases 5A and 5B so that the transfer member 2 contacts the ground G when the transfer member 2 is bent (FIG. 7). Although it is dangerous if the angle of deflection of the transfer member 2 is increased, it is attached so as to be in contact with the ground G, so even a child or an elderly person does not have to worry about falling and can develop a sense of balance. it can.

As another example of the present embodiment, the grooves 3 of the pedestals 5A and 5B may be formed so as to be inclined obliquely forward and the groove 3 is inclined obliquely forward (FIG. 8 ( b)). In this case, the transfer member 2 arranged in the inclined groove 3 is easily bent downward.
Further, a plurality of the locking projections 4 can be arranged (FIGS. 10A and 10B). For example, a plurality of holes 9 are provided in the groove 3 of one pedestal 5A, 5B, and the locking projection 4 can be attached / detached, that is, inserted into and removed from an arbitrary hole 9 to change the attachment position, and transfer It can be used for regulating the movement of the member 2 and adjusting the amount of change such as the shaking or deflection of the transfer member 2. Moreover, the groove | channel 10 which latches the node 2a so that it may cross | intersect the said groove | channel 3 may be formed, and it may be formed so that it may overlap with the several hole of the said groove | channel (FIG. 10 (a)). .

  Here, according to the explanation on the website of the “Children and Posture Study Group”, the importance of maintaining a standing balance is described. “In order to improve the standing balance, it is said that it is better to put a stimulus in the part called the mechano receptor (sensory receptor) on the sole of the foot. The basis for standing balance is the so-called sole, that is, on the sole of the foot, the thumb (first finger), the base of the toe (where it rises), the heel, etc. There are many sensors called mechano-receptors that sense "where you are weighted", "whether you are weighted straight", "whether you are leaning", etc. And transmitted to the brain. The brain analyzes the information entered from the eyes and the semicircular canal and the information sent from the mechano-receptor and issues a command to each muscle of the body so that the body is straight (or not to fall). ,to keep balance. ... In elderly people, the function of mechano-receptors decreases, and as a result, it becomes difficult to balance the standing position. In that sense, it is important to activate mechanoreceptors and prevent falls even in elderly people. ]. Thus, in order to cultivate the standing balance while stimulating the sole, it can be said that the training with the balance beam 1 of the present embodiment exhibits an effective effect together with the stimulation effect on the sole of the bamboo.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the description has been made mainly with the average beam 1 for children or the average beam 1 for elderly people, but there are various types of bamboo, and if a thick one like a log is used, it can be used for adults. It can be used. It can also be used for training athletes with a sense of balance. Moreover, although the child or elderly person demonstrated the direction which advances the transfer member 2 straightly, you may use it so that the transfer member 2 may be walked sideways, and the usage method is various. Further, it goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments, such as that several U-shaped grooves 3 and several V-shaped grooves 3 can be formed on the bases 5A and 5B.
