Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to exercise equipment.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Aerobic exercise (aerobic exercise) is a type of endurance exercise that continues for a long time while taking in oxygen, and its typical exercise method is walking exercise called walking exercise. This walking exercise is widely used by people and practiced as a health practice.
[0003]
However, according to recent research, it has been announced that it is effective to incorporate strength training (resistance training) along with this aerobic exercise to become healthier.
[0004]
The strength training is training that attempts to increase strength by applying load resistance to the muscle.
[0005]
Also, for example, in the 1990 American Sports Medical Association's “Guidelines for Revising and Maintaining Physical Fitness for Healthy Adults, Revised Edition”, for the first time, aerobic exercise and strength training from the standpoint of aerobic exercise Came to recommend the combined use. The background to the revision of this guideline is the growing awareness that a certain level of muscle strength is necessary to efficiently and comfortably spend daily life.
[0006]
Even in Japan, where response has been delayed until now, it is thought that it will be necessary to develop programs for exercise methods that actively incorporate strength training.
[0007]
However, conventionally, there has been no exercise equipment that can simultaneously perform walking exercise and upper-body strength training in cooperation.
[0008]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]

The pair of knee pads 71 and 72 and the operation means 3 are provided. Hereinafter, each of these components will be sequentially described.
[0035]
As shown in FIG. 1, the bag 2 has a back-packing form. The bag 2 is provided with a frame 21, and a pair of holes (attachment portions) 211 and 212 for attaching a pair of shafts 61 and 62 described later are formed on the upper side of the frame 21. In addition, since the hole part 212 is located in the back side of the user's 100 head, it is not illustrated.
[0036]
In the present embodiment, the positions of the holes 211 and 212 are set so as to be in the vicinity of the shoulder of the user 100.
[0037]
The holes 211 and 212 are opened toward the tip end, and the shafts 61 and 62 attached to the holes 211 and 212 protrude forward (tip side) from the vicinity of the shoulder of the user 100, and It is comprised so that it may become substantially horizontal.
[0038]
The positions of the holes 211 and 212 are not limited to the vicinity of the shoulder, but may be, for example, the vicinity of the armpit, the vicinity of the waist, or the like. That is, the shafts 61 and 62 may protrude forward from, for example, the vicinity of the armpit of the user 100 or the vicinity of the waist.
[0039]
Further, the bag 2 is provided with a pair of shoulder straps 221 and 222 that are hung on both shoulders of the user 100, and a belt (waist belt) 23 for holding the bag 2 and the frame 21 on the waist and abdomen. . The shoulder straps 221 and 222 are provided with a belt (chest belt) 24 for connecting them and holding the bag 2 and the frame 21 on the chest.
[0040]
The lengths of the shoulder straps 221 and 222 and the belts 23 and 24 can be adjusted.
[0041]
In addition, each member (component) constituting the exercise tool 1, that is, a pair of shafts 61 and 62, a pair of knee pads 71 and 72, and an operation means 3, which will be described later, can all be accommodated in the bag 2. It is like that.
[0042]
Thus, the user 100 can easily carry the exercise equipment 1 to an arbitrary place with the bag 2 on the back.
[0043]
The frame 21, the bag 2, the shoulder straps 221 and 222, and the belts 23 and 24 constitute a shoulder means and a fixing means, respectively.
[0044]
The pair of knee pads 71 and 72 are configured to be detachably attached to and held by the knee of the user 100. The means for mounting and holding is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a magic tape (“magic tape” is a registered trademark), a belt, rubber (elastic member), and the like. That is, each knee pad 71 and 72 can be made into a protector shape, a supporter shape, etc., for example.
[0045]
The knee pads 71 and 72 are provided with mounting brackets (mounting portions) 711 and 721 for mounting pulleys 43 and 53 of the operation means 3 described later, respectively.
[0046]
When the user 100 falls, the knee pads 71 and 72 can prevent knee damage and bruise, and exercise more safely.
[0047]
The knee pads 71 and 72 may be integrated with the trousers 11, respectively.
[0048]
The pair of shafts 61 and 62 are detachably attached to the pair of holes 211 and 212 of the frame 21, respectively.
[0049]
As a constituent material of the pair of shafts 61 and 62, for example, various metals or alloys such as various iron materials, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, brass, titanium, nickel, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, hard polyvinyl chloride, Polyester such as polyethylene terephthalate, polycarbonate, acrylic resin, ABS resin, polyamide, polyimide, polysulfone, polyphenylene sulfide, polyetheretherketone and other resin materials, carbon materials, or combinations of two or more of these In addition, a reinforcing material such as glass fiber (glass fiber) may be included.
[0050]
The pair of shafts 61 and 62 preferably have appropriate rigidity.
[0051]
Thereby, at the time of use, the force of an arm can be transmitted to a leg part more smoothly and reliably.
[0052]
In order to increase the rigidity, for example, a material having high rigidity is selected, such as increasing the diameter of the shafts 61, 62, increasing the thickness, and the polygonal shape such as a substantially quadrangular shape in the cross section. In addition, two or more of these may be combined.
[0053]
Each of the pair of shafts 61 and 62 preferably has a structure that can be stretched or folded, and particularly preferably has a structure that can be stretched.
[0054]
Thereby, each shaft 61 and 62 can be easily accommodated in the bag 2 and is convenient for transportation.
[0055]
In particular, in the case of being stretchable, the lengths of the shafts 61 and 62 can be adjusted to appropriate lengths according to various conditions of the user 100 such as height.
[0056]
In the present embodiment, the shaft 61 includes a first shaft 611, a second shaft 612, and a third shaft 613, and has a stretchable structure.
[0057]
That is, when the shaft 61 rotates the second shaft 612 in the predetermined direction around the axis with respect to the third shaft 613, the second shaft 612 can move in the axial direction with respect to the third shaft 613. When the second shaft 612 is rotated with respect to the third shaft 613 in the direction opposite to the rotation center, the second shaft 612 is fixed to the third shaft 613 and the length thereof is increased. Similarly, when the first shaft 611 is rotated with respect to the second shaft 612 in a predetermined direction around the axis, the first shaft 611 can move in the axial direction with respect to the second shaft 612. When the first shaft 611 is rotated with respect to the second shaft 612 in the direction opposite to the above as the rotation center, the second shaft 611 is expanded and contracted. The first shaft 611 is fixed relative to the shift 612, and is configured to be able to hold the length.
[0058]
Similarly to the shaft 61, the shaft 62 includes a first shaft 621, a second shaft 622, and a third shaft 623, and has a telescopic structure. Since the structure and operation of the shaft 62 are the same as those of the shaft 61, the description thereof is omitted.
[0059]
The shafts 61 and 62 may be reinforced with a reinforcing member (not shown).
[0060]
In this case, for example, the shaft 61 and the shaft 62 are connected by a predetermined reinforcing member (for example, a rod-like body), that is, one end side of the reinforcing member is joined to the shaft 61 and the other end side of the reinforcing member is connected to the shaft 62. You may join to. Further, for example, each of the shafts 61 and 62 may be configured to be held at a predetermined portion of the user 100 by a predetermined reinforcing member.
[0061]
The operation means 3 includes a first lifting operation unit 4 and a second lifting operation unit 5.
[0062]
The first lifting operation unit 4 includes a wire 41 that is a rope, pulleys 42 and 43, and a grip 44.
The rope to be used is not limited to a wire.
[0063]
Examples of the constituent material of the rope include various metal materials, various resin materials, various fibers, and the like.
[0064]
The rope may be substantially non-stretchable or may be slightly stretchable.
[0065]
The distal end side (one end side) of the wire 41 is attached to the distal end portion of the shaft 61, and a grip portion 44 is provided on the proximal end side (the other end side) of the wire.
[0066]
In the middle of the wire 41, pulleys 42 and 43 around which the wire 41 is wound are provided. Each of the pulleys 42 and 43 is not separated from the wire 41.
[0067]
Of the two pulleys 42 and 43, the pulley 42 on the base end side (the gripping portion 44 side) is a fixed pulley, and is attached to the distal end portion of the shaft 61. The pulley 42 is located closer to the base end than the position where the wire 41 is attached to the shaft 61.
[0068]
Of the two pulleys 42, 43, the distal end pulley 43 is a moving pulley and is detachably attached to an attachment fitting (attachment portion) 711 of the knee pad 71.
[0069]
In this way, by providing one moving pulley (pulley 43), the force (arm force) required to pull up the leg is ½ of that when there is no such action due to the action of the moving pulley. Thus, the leg can be easily pulled up. The half is a theoretical value excluding frictional resistance and the like.
[0070]
As the pulleys 42 and 43, it is preferable to use relatively lightweight ones.
[0071]
That is, the specific gravity of each of the pulleys 42 and 43 is preferably relatively small, and the size of each of the pulleys 42 and 43 is preferably relatively small.
[0072]
The first pulling operation unit 4 is provided with a length adjusting means 8 for adjusting the length from the tip of the wire 41 to the grip portion 44.
[0073]
Thereby, according to various conditions, such as height of the user 100, for example, the length from the front-end | tip of the wire 41 to the holding part 44 can be adjusted to appropriate length.
[0074]
The length adjusting means 8 is not particularly limited as long as the length from the tip of the wire 41 to the grip 44 can be adjusted. For example, the length adjusting means 8 can be configured as shown in FIG.
[0075]
That is, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, a through hole 81 is formed in the grip portion 44 along the longitudinal direction thereof, and communicates with the through hole 81 on the upper side of the grip portion 44 in FIG. Through-holes 82 are formed, and these through-holes 81 and 82 constitute the length adjusting means 8. Note that the through hole 81 and the through hole 82 do not need to communicate with each other.
[0076]
The proximal end side of the wire 41 is inserted (inserted) through the through hole 81 and further through the through hole 82. The grip portion 44 is prevented (prevented) from moving in the longitudinal direction with respect to the wire 41 by the frictional force with the wire 41.
[0077]
When adjusting the length from the tip of the wire 41 to the grip portion 44 to be short, for example, first, the base end of the wire 41 until the length from the tip of the wire 41 to the grip portion 44 reaches a target length. 2 is moved downward in FIG. 2 along the through hole 81 of the grip portion 44, and the length from the position a to the position b of the wire 41 is set to an appropriate length (a length that does not get in the way). The base end side of the wire 41 is moved along the through hole 82 to the right side in FIG.
[0078]
Conversely, when the length from the tip of the wire 41 to the grip 44 is adjusted to be long, for example, first, the length from the position a to the position b of the wire 41 is from the tip of the wire 41 to the grip 44. The base end side of the wire 41 is moved to the left side in FIG. 2 along the through-hole 82 of the gripping portion 44 until the length can be adjusted, and then the gripping portion 44 from the tip of the wire 41 is moved. The base end side of the wire 41 is moved to the upper side in FIG. 2 along the through hole 81 until the length until the target length becomes the target length, and further, the base end side of the wire 41 is predetermined along the through hole 82. By moving the wire 41 in the direction, the length from the position a to the position b of the wire 41 is set to an appropriate length (a length that does not get in the way).
[0079]
As shown in FIG. 1, the second lifting operation unit 5 also has a wire 51, a pulley (constant pulley) 52, a pulley (moving pulley) 53, and a gripping portion 54, similar to the first lifting operation unit 4. And a length adjusting means 8 for adjusting the length from the tip of the wire 51 to the grip portion 54.
[0080]
The length adjusting means 8 can adjust the length from the tip of the wire 51 to the grip portion 54 to an appropriate length according to various conditions of the user 100 such as height.
[0081]
Since the structure and operation of the second lifting operation unit 5 are the same as those of the first lifting operation unit 4, description thereof will be omitted.
[0082]
The operating means 3 and the pair of knee pads 71 and 72 constitute lifting means for alternately raising the user's legs with his / her own arm force.
[0083]
Here, in the present invention, in the first pulling operation unit 4 of the operation means 3, a plurality of moving pulleys may be provided, or the moving pulley may be omitted, but the legs can be easily operated with a relatively small force. It is preferable to provide at least one moving pulley from the viewpoint that it can be pulled up.
[0084]
By providing at least one moving pulley, the force (arm force) required to pull up the leg is less than half that of the absence of the moving pulley due to the action of the moving pulley. Can be raised.
The number of the movable pulleys is more preferably 1 or 2.
[0085]
When the moving pulley is omitted, for example, the distal end portion of the wire 41 is detachably attached to the attachment fitting (attachment portion) 711 of the knee pad 71.
[0086]
Further, in the present invention, in the second lifting operation unit 5 of the operation means 3, a plurality of moving pulleys may be provided and the moving pulley may be omitted, but the legs can be easily moved with a relatively small force. From the viewpoint of being able to pull up, it is preferable to provide at least one moving pulley.
[0087]
By providing at least one moving pulley, the force (arm force) required to pull up the leg is less than half that of the absence of the moving pulley due to the action of the moving pulley. Can be raised.
The number of the movable pulleys is more preferably 1 or 2.
[0088]
When the moving pulley is omitted, for example, the distal end portion of the wire 51 is detachably attached to the attachment fitting (attachment portion) 721 of the knee pad 72.
[0089]
In the present invention, in the operation means 3, for example, a wheel shaft may be used instead of the pulley, or the pulley and the wheel shaft may be used in combination. Also in this case, the leg can be easily pulled up with a relatively small force.
[0090]
Next, the operation of the exercise tool 1 will be described.
The user 100 carries the bag 2, carries the exercise equipment 1 to a predetermined place, and assembles and attaches the exercise equipment 1. The exercise tool 1 is assembled and mounted as follows, for example.
[0091]
First, the pair of knee pads 71 and 72, the pair of shafts 61 and 62, and the operating means 3 attached thereto (first lifting operation unit 4 and second lifting operation unit 5) are all taken out from the bag 2. .
[0092]
Next, as described above, the lengths of the shafts 61 and 62 are adjusted so as to be the target lengths.

Next, each knee pad 71, 72 is attached to the corresponding knee.
Next, the shoulder straps 221 and 222 of the bag 2 are hung on the corresponding shoulders, the bag 2 is carried on the back, and the belts 23 and 24 are fastened. Thereby, the bag 2 and the frame 21 are held (fixed) to the upper body.
[0095]
Next, the pulley 43 of the first lifting operation unit 4 is attached (connected) to the attachment fitting 711 of the knee pad 71, and the pulley 53 of the second lifting operation unit 5 is attached to the attachment fitting 721 of the knee pad 72 (connection). To do).
[0096]
Next, as described above, the length from the tip of the wire 41 to the grip portion 44 and the length from the tip of the wire 51 to the grip portion 54 are adjusted as necessary.
This completes the assembly and mounting of the exercise equipment 1.
[0097]
Needless to say, the order may be changed when the exercise tool 1 is assembled and mounted.
[0098]
Next, the user 100 grips the pair of grips 44 and 54 with their corresponding hands, and starts exercise, that is, walking (walking).
[0099]
At the time of walking, the corresponding arm is moved backward and the corresponding wire is pulled (moved) in accordance with the stepping of the leg (leg).
[0100]
That is, when stepping on the left leg, as shown in FIG. 3, when moving the left arm backward and pulling the wire 41 backward, moving the right arm forward, conversely, when stepping on the right leg As shown in FIG. 4, the right arm is moved backward to pull the wire 51 backward, and the left arm is moved forward.
[0101]
As shown in FIG. 3, when the wire 41 is pulled backward, the left leg (knee) is pulled up. As shown in FIG. 4, when the wire 51 is pulled backward, the right leg (knee) is pulled up. It is done. This reduces the exercise load on the lower body of each leg and the like.
[0102]
On the other hand, by alternately pulling the wire 41 and the wire 51 alternately between the left arm and the right arm, an appropriate load resistance is applied to the upper body of each arm (eg, arm muscles, abdominal muscles, back muscles, large pectoral muscles). Take it. That is, the upper body strength training is executed.
[0103]
In this way, walking exercise (aerobic exercise by walking) and upper body strength training are performed simultaneously.

In particular, anyone can easily perform the walking exercise and the upper body strength training simultaneously in cooperation with each other at any place and at any time. That is, exercise (health exercise) using the exercise tool 1 can be a lifelong sport that can be easily tackled.
[0107]
In walking exercise, the amount of activity of muscles including the psoas major muscle is increased by making the stride relatively wide, and this is an ideal walking exercise. Since the lower limbs are largely pulled by the upper limbs (upper body) and moved forward, the stride can be widened and a more ideal walking motion can be performed.
[0108]
Also, by pulling the lower limbs greatly with the power of the upper limbs and widening the stride, the walking speed can be increased and the walking distance can be lengthened (the action range can be widened), and the walking movement can be continued for a long time. it can.
[0109]
In addition, the exercise load on the lower limbs is distributed and reduced in the upper limbs, thereby reducing the fatigue of the lower body and reducing the burden on the user compared to normal walking and conventional lower body-centered walking exercises. Can do. It is particularly effective when used on slopes (when climbing slopes) and is ideal for mountain climbing and trekking.
[0110]
Moreover, in this exercise tool 1, since the force of both arms is directly used for walking exercise, it becomes a whole body exercise that actively moves the upper body, and can perform aerobic exercise with exercise load on almost the whole body. In particular, upper limb exercise is a strength training called Isotonic Exercise (Isotonic Exercise), so the upper body's muscles and skeletal system have exercise effects that are not seen in conventional lower body gait exercises. can get.
[0111]
Moreover, in this exercise tool 1, the movement of both arms and the movement of both legs are linked, so that the walking posture is corrected and the rhythmical walking is performed with an appropriate posture with the original chest greatly stretched. Can do.
[0112]
Further, by using this exercise tool 1, it is possible to walk happily, that is, to exercise happily.
[0113]
