Description

[Detailed description of the device] [Industrial applications]

The present invention relates to a physical strength measuring device capable of measuring back muscle strength or both back strength measurement and body flexion measurement.

[Prior art]

Back muscle strength measurement and body flexion measurement are the items of physical strength measurement items listed in the "Sports Test Implementation Guidelines" of the Ministry of Education,
Some of the methods of the back strength test and the body flexion test specified in this test implementation guideline are performed by standing. In the standing back strength test, stand with the knees extended to the back strength test stand, tilt the upper body forward by about 30 degrees, hold the handle that is connected to the instrument with a chain with both hands, and make maximum effort to raise the handle. It measures back muscle strength by pulling it up. In this standing back strength test, you are forced to take the same posture as lifting a heavy object with your legs extended. The motion of lifting a heavy object with the legs stretched out is a heavy burden on the lumbar region in terms of physical movement, and can cause back pain including a tight back. As described above, since the standing back strength test puts a strain on the lower back and may cause back pain, the back strength test is a test item from the third grade of elementary school to 20 years old.
It is excluded from the items of the physical fitness test for children over 0 years old. In the standing back strength test, the waist is overpowered in the middle waist, so prepare for the waist. Efforts have been made to prevent back pain by proper guidance from the leader, such as pulling slowly upward when pulling up and never letting go of the handle. In Japan, where motorization is advancing and labor-saving society is present, not only children but also young people tend to be weaker than before. In the Heisei era, it was reported that the back muscle strength test induced an intervertebral disc hernia as if to support the weakness of the legs and waist of school children. The back strength test is extremely important as an index for observing the growth and development of the muscles of the back of the upper body. If the growth and development of the back muscles are poor, it is easy for the younger people to become lateral scoliosis, for the old people it is easy to invite the lordosis of the thoracic spine, and because the posture cannot be maintained correctly, the back may be hurt and tired easily. It also causes modulation. In school children, due to the intense test-taking and labor-saving society, chronic physical insufficiency resulted in weak legs. Moreover, in an aging society, even an old man is required to have strong legs to survive. In the present age of labor-saving society and weakness of legs and waists in all age groups, it is necessary to measure back strength without causing back pain. Conventionally, for the body bending test, a long-seat body bending measuring device is disclosed in the specification and drawings of Japanese Utility Model Application No. 62-100790, but the device is equipped with a vertical stand. It is equipped with an elevating mechanism, and a horizontal measuring table is attached to the upper end of the elevating mechanism.When using, the instrument stand is installed on the floor, and the examinee stands in a sitting position on the floor, It bends forward by applying it to the foot contact area. Therefore, the conventional device can firstly be used only for body flexion measurement. Secondly, since the subject is in a sitting position on a horizontal floor and puts the sole of the foot on the vertical foot, it is difficult to stabilize the posture and the back is burdened, causing back pain. There is a problem that the waist feels uncomfortable after the measurement.

[Technical problem to be solved] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and can perform a back muscle strength test without burdening the waist, and is the same as the measurement value of the conventional standing posture. A first object of the present invention is to provide a long sitting type physical strength measuring device capable of giving a value. In addition, we provide a long sitting type physical fitness device that can selectively perform either the back muscle strength test or the body flexion test, without burdening the waist, and can output the same measurement value as the conventional standing type. The second purpose is to do so.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned first object, a long seat type physical strength measuring device according to the present invention comprises: (a) a long seat base having a downward slope on the foot support side; and (b) a lower end side of the long seat base. And (c) a back muscle force meter mounting means attached to the sitting table in front of the foot support. In addition, in order to achieve the second object, the long-seat type physical fitness measuring device according to the present invention has, in addition to the components (a) and (b) common to the measuring device, (c) in front of the foot support. It is characterized by having both a back strength tester mounting means mounted on the seat for long-seat and (d) a body flexion measuring instrument mounting means mounted on the upper side of the foot support.

[Action]

Since the long table has a downward slope on the foot support side,
When the long-seat table is in the long-seat position and the foot is fixed to the foot support, it is easy to thrust the foot in a stable state. If a back strength tester is attached to the back strength tester means, a back strength test can be performed in a sitting position. Further, if the body flexion measurement device is attached to the body flexion measurement device attachment means, the body flexion test can be performed in the sitting position.

【Example】

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 in FIG. 1 is a table for a long seat on which a measurer rides and stands.
It has casters 2 and the like to enable movement. The seat pad 3 is provided at the waist position of the upper end of the long table 1.
A foot support 4 is attached to each foot position of the lower end portion, and a back muscle force meter attachment means 5 to which a known back muscle force meter can be detachably attached is provided in front of the foot support. Further, on the upper side of the foot support 4, there is provided a body bending measurement device mounting means 6 to which a known body bending measurement device (not shown) is attached. The sitting base 1 is easy to take a sitting posture, and is capable of exerting 100% of the back muscle strength, and has a descending slope so that the upper body can be bent sufficiently forward. The seat pad 3 is formed by taking a shape so that it is comfortable to sit on, and has an adjusting device 3a capable of adjusting the longitudinal position of the table 1 according to the height of the measurer. The foot support 4 has a shape that allows the measurer to easily fix the foot,
It is made of a material that can withstand a few hundreds of kilograms of pushing force so that you can fully stretch your legs. Further, an adjusting device 4a is attached so that the left and right positions of the foot can be adjusted. The back dynamometer mounting means 5 includes an upright portion 51 provided on the long table 1.
It is composed of a hook 52 to which a back dynamometer is detachably attached, and is made of a material that can withstand a pulling force of several hundreds of kilograms so as to endure back muscular force measurement. Hook 52
Is inserted through a vertically long hole provided in the upright portion 51 and a wing nut or the like is screwed to the shaft end portion of the hook protruding to the back surface so that the position can be adjusted to a height that fits the sitting height of the measurer. The body flexion measuring device attachment means 6 is attached to the upper side of the foot support 4 at a position where it does not hinder the movement of the measurer during the back muscle strength test. It is convenient to attach it to the upright portion 51 so as to be vertically movable so that the height can be changed by the measurer. With the above configuration, when using the measuring apparatus according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, when performing a back muscle strength test, the back muscle force meter A is attached to the back muscle force meter mounting means 5 and the table for long sitting is used. The measurer P goes up on 1, sits down on the seat pad 3 and is in the sitting position, and puts his foot on the foot support 4. At this time, if the distance between the seat pad 3 and the foot support 4 does not match the length of the leg of the measurer in the sitting position, the adjuster of the seat pad 3 and / or the foot support 4 is operated, Adjust to a suitable position. Then, as in the case of the conventional standing type, the handle of the back dynamometer A is held with both hands, and the foot is thrust on the foot support 4 to pull the handle. When performing a body flexion test with this measuring device, the back dynamometer A is removed, and a known body flexion measuring instrument (not shown) is attached to the body flexion measuring instrument attachment means 6 instead. Then, the upper body may be bent forward in the sitting position. When the measuring device is not used, it can be easily moved to a storage location via a caster 2 and cleaned. The above-described embodiment is provided with the back muscle force meter attachment means 5 and the body flexion measurement device attachment means 6 so that both the back muscle strength test and the body flexion test can be performed by one device. This is a preferred embodiment. However, only the back strength tester mounting means 5 may be attached to the long table 1 and used to perform only the back strength test.

[Effect of device]

As described above, the physical fitness measuring device according to the invention of claim 1
Since a long sitting table with a downward slope is used on the foot support side,
You can perform a long sitting type back strength test in a stable posture. Further, the single physical fitness measuring device of the second term can selectively perform the back muscle strength test and the body flexion test. In addition, since the back muscle strength test or body flexion test by the long sitting type has an extremely small burden on the lumbar region as compared with the standing type, the long sitting type physical strength measuring device according to the present invention has a risk of causing a herniated intervertebral disk and other back pain. It can be used to measure back muscle strength and body flexion in a wide range of age groups from school children to middle-aged and elderly persons.
