Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a conceptual explanatory diagram of a main part related to a dredger according to the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a perspective view illustrating an embodiment of the dredger according to the present invention.

  A dredging machine 10 according to the present invention includes a base 11 having a substantially rectangular shape in plan view, a movable plate 12 rotatably attached to one side edge of the base 11, and the movable plate 12 and the base. An eccentric cam 15 provided on the base 11 below the other side edge facing the fulcrum side S on which the base 11 is rotatably attached, and an electric motor 20 for rotating the eccentric cam 15. .

  In this embodiment, the movable plate 12 stands upright on a flat plate portion 12h having a substantially rectangular shape in plan view and a side edge portion of the flat plate portion 12h on the eccentric cam side (hereinafter referred to as “cam side”). The standing part 12k is provided, and the cam upper extension part 12c is extended from the substantially central part of the standing part 12k to the cam side in the substantially horizontal direction.

An eccentric cam 15 is rotatably provided and disposed on a pair of bearing portions 15j and 15j on the base 11 below the cam upper extension 12c.
As can be seen from FIG. 1, the eccentric cam 15 is cut out at the right half of its longest radius portion.
The rotating shaft of the eccentric cam 15 is connected to the rotating shaft of the electric motor 20. The electric motor 20 used here is a gear motor that can exhibit a large torque.

A contact 16 is provided on the lower surface of the cam upper extension 12c of the movable plate 12 with which the eccentric cam 15 contacts. In this embodiment, the contact 16 is formed from a rotating roller.
Thereby, the eccentric cam 15 rotated by the electric motor 20 is smoothly rotated.

Rails 13 are provided on both sides of the upper surface of the movable plate 12.
A saddle plate 14 that can move between the fulcrum side S and the cam side on the rails 13 and 13 is provided.

This saddle-loading plate 14 is a plate-like one and is laid over the rails 13 and 13 as described above, and can be freely reciprocated between the cam side and the fulcrum side S. The recesses 14h and 14h are provided, and the hips of both feet of the user can be placed in the recesses 14h and 14h. It is also free to provide a cushion sheet on the surfaces of the recesses 14h and 14h.
Examples of the cushion sheet include an appropriately thick wool fabric, velvet fabric, or urethane sheet.

  The rails 13 and 13 are made of aluminum, and provided with L-shaped metal fittings 14k having an L-shaped cross section at the side edge portions on both sides of the rack mounting plate 14 so as to be slidable with respect to each other. A screw is used for fixing.

By providing the heel plate 14 as described above, the user places the heel portion in the recess 14 h of the heel plate 14, and the toe portion of the user floats from the flat plate portion 12 h of the movable plate 12. It becomes a state.
Since the toes are in a floating state, the impact on the heel is good, and this heel-dropping effect is extremely good.
Further, the base 11 is provided with four support columns 22 on both sides thereof, and a handrail portion 25 is provided on the upper end thereof.
These struts 22 and handrails 25 use metal pipes.

As shown in FIG. 2, the handrail portion 25 is provided on both sides of the base 11 and on the three sides of the cam side. The presence of the handrail 25 is particularly effective when the user is an elderly person.
Further, the user can freely turn the face of the body toward the cam side or the fulcrum side S when placing the heel portion of both feet on the heel plate 14.

  This is because the position of the eaves plate 14 can be arranged at a desired position between the fulcrum side S of the flat plate portion 12h of the movable plate 12 and the cam side, and the amplitude of the vertical movement of the eaves plate 14 depends on the position. This is because the user can select a desired amplitude height.

Here, the characteristics of the movement of the dredging machine 10 according to the present invention will be described. The operation is based on the shape of the eccentric cam 15.
That is, as described above, the eccentric cam 15 has a notch in which the right half of the longest radius portion is notched, and the eccentric cam 15 rotates counterclockwise in FIG. 1 by the rotation of the rotating shaft of the electric motor 20. As a result, the cam upper extension 12c of the movable plate 12 gradually rises, and after the longest radius portion of the eccentric cam 15 is located at the uppermost end, the cam upper extension 12c falls downward due to the presence of the notch. It collides with the contact part 15t (refer FIG. 1) which is an upper end part of the bearing part 15j, and it will give an impact to a user's both leg | foot.

This allows the user to experience a single dredging exercise.
Subsequent continuous rotation of the eccentric cam 15 repeats the drooping movement.

A switch unit 30 is provided on one side of the handrail 25 so that the power can be turned on and off.
In addition, a timer or the like can be built in, and the operation time can be set in units of 1 minute to operate continuously for a desired time.
Furthermore, it is possible to provide a counter for the number of times of impact so that the number of times of the dredging exercise can be actually displayed and recorded.
In FIG. 2, the power cord and the plug are not shown.

Next, it will be as follows when the usage method of the dredger according to this invention is summarized.
Connect the plug of the power cord to a power outlet.
The position of the gutter plate 14 is selected and determined, and fixed to the rails 13 and 13 with screws.
When it is desired to obtain the greatest impact, the heel mounting plate 14 is positioned closest to the cam side, and the body of both feet is mounted on the recess 14h of the heel mounting plate 14 with the body facing the fulcrum side. .

In the case where the smallest impact is sufficient, the heel mounting plate 14 is positioned close to the fulcrum side, and the heel portion of both feet is mounted on the recess 14h of the heel mounting plate 14 with the body facing the cam side.
As described above, in the case of the heel dropper 10 according to the present invention, the face of the body can be used with either the fulcrum side or the cam side depending on the position of the heel plate 14. Is one of the features.

In this state, by turning on the switch unit 30 or by setting a timer for a predetermined time and turning on the switch, it is possible to perform a dredging exercise.
After the desired amount of time has elapsed, turning off the switch ends the wrinkle dropping movement.
Since the user can hold the handrail portion 25 and perform exercise during the operation of the dredging machine 10, it is safe.

Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, various design changes can be made in the present invention as follows.
The plan view shape of the base and the movable plate can be freely designed.
In short, it is only necessary that one side edge (fulcrum side) of the movable plate is pivotably attached to the base.

There are various possible attachment methods for this rotation, but it can be pivotally attached by a support shaft or pivotally attached by a hinge, and can be freely designed.
The base and the movable plate use wood, but the material is free, and the shape of the movable plate can also be formed from a single plate material.

In the above embodiment, the upright portion and the cam upper extension portion are provided on the cam side, but this is because the height of the movable plate is made as low as possible to facilitate use.
The rails provided on the flat plate portion of the movable plate are also provided on both sides of the flat plate portion, but may be implemented without necessarily being provided on both side edges.
In short, it is only necessary that the saddle plate is movable between the cam side and the fulcrum side.

The length of the longest radius portion of the eccentric cam can also be set as necessary.
However, it is essential to provide a notch on one side of the longest radius portion. This is because it is essential that the upper cam extension part falls downward and collides with the contact part which is the upper edge of the bearing part of the base.

  It is also free to interpose a cushion member having an appropriate hardness on the upper surface of the contact portion of the upper end portion of the bearing portion, and it is extremely desirable to provide this cushion member. The material of the cushion member can be appropriately selected as appropriate, such as urethane rubber.

  As described above, the present invention can provide an automatic machine that realizes a dredge-dropping exercise that has not existed so far, and can be easily used even by an elderly person. It was possible to provide a dredging machine that is a very convenient health device that can adjust the strength of impact.
