The temporal swing rhythm can be expressed simultaneously using graphical information and pronunciation information, making it possible to always obtain a constant sports swing rhythm.

[Conventional technology]

As practice machines that express and repeat the rhythm of athletic movements in sports, metronomes and electronic pacemakers, which are used to check pinch intervals in marathons, jigging, etc., have already been devised. FIG. 2 shows an example of an oscillation sound time chart of an electronic pacemaker. In Figure 2, the 0N-OFF signal of the oscillating sound is
It is repeated at a predetermined synchronization f, and always returns to 0 at a constant timing.
N-OFF is performed. This makes it possible to express an exercise movement rhythm suitable for exercise movements that are always repeated with the same rhythm, such as the aforementioned marathon or jigging.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

However, conventional metronomes and electronic pacemakers are not suitable as practice devices when used to maintain a constant swing rhythm in sports such as golf and baseball that require swing motions.

In other words, in the swing movements performed in golf, baseball, etc., the movement movements that are repeated at a predetermined period, such as those performed in marathons and jigging, are not often performed, and the swing movement is more important than such movement movements. From the middle, the swing rhythm was faster than the one that had been used up until then.
Or there are many movements that have a slow rhythm.

Furthermore, since most sports swings involve complex movement movements, in order to use practice devices such as pacemakers to maintain a constant sports swing, it is necessary to simultaneously provide pronunciation information that expresses the rhythm of the sports swing. There was a problem in that it was also necessary to express graphical information of a sports swing that corresponded to the swing rhythm.

Therefore, in order to solve these conventional problems, the present invention is capable of expressing a swing rhythm suitable for various sports even in sports swing motions that are not repeated at a predetermined period. The purpose is to provide an electronic sports swing training device that allows you to get a rhythm.
