Description

[Detailed description of the device] <Industrial application field>
The present invention relates to a start sound generating device for exercise practice in which simultaneous training of several people can be efficiently performed by arbitrarily setting the number of times and the number of people and automatically generating start sounds according to respective set values.

<Prior art> Conventionally, in so-called interval training, in which several people practice swimming and the like intermittently in sequence, a method is used in which the coach whistles or screams while watching the clock at hand. Is common.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> According to such a conventional method, the coach constantly concentrates on staring at the clock when practicing a large number of people repeatedly, so he is concerned about the individual's swimming style, speed endurance, pace allocation, etc. As a result of not spinning, there was the inconvenience that sufficient effects could not be obtained for improving the ability of swimmers and runners, and exerting their abilities.

<Means for Solving Problems> The present invention has been made in view of the conventional situation as described above.
That is, the main circle counter 2 provided on the operation panel 1a of the main body 1 is displayed in seconds, and the sub circle counter 3 arranged side by side in the counter is displayed in the number of times the circle is repeated, and the sub circle counter is arranged side by side. The main wave counter 4 is displayed in seconds, the sub-wave counter 5 juxtaposed to the counter is displayed in the number of times of repeating the wave, and the circle counters 2 and 3 and the wave counters 4 and 5 are switched on the control panel 1a. Switch 6
The circle speaker 9 which is linked with the main body 1 and operates independently or by the
And the wave counters 4 and 5 are connected to the wave speaker 10 having a different tone color from the circle speaker. Therefore, the changeover switch 6 is set and the power switch 7 is set.
It is intended to provide a start sound generating device for exercise training which solves the above-mentioned problems by generating a start sound from both speakers 9 and 10 when the start button 8 is pressed after turning on.

<Operation> When the changeover switch 6 is set so that the circle counters 2 and 3 and the wave counters 4 and 5 are interlocked,
Turn on the power switch 7 and press the start button 8,
The first start sound is emitted from both speakers 9 and 10 at the same time, and the start sound is emitted from the wave speaker 10 in the number corresponding to the number of sub-wave counters 5 at intervals of the number of seconds displayed on the main wave counter 4. There is no gap in the last start sound). Then, after the number of seconds displayed on the main circle counter 2 elapses after this number of times, the second start sound is emitted from both speakers 9 and 10 simultaneously, and the number of seconds displayed on the main wave counter 4 is increased. A start sound is emitted from the wave speaker 10 at intervals with the number of times displayed on the sub-wave counter 5. In this way, when the number of times indicated by the subordinate circle counter 3 ends, the device automatically stops.

Also, when the changeover switch 6 is set so that the circle counters 2 and 3 and the wave counters 4 and 5 operate independently, when the power switch 6 is turned on and the start button 8 is pressed, both speakers 9 and 10 are turned on. The first start sound is emitted at the same time, but the next start sound is emitted from each speaker separately. That is, the start sound is emitted from the circle speaker 9 each time the number of seconds indicated on the main circle counter 2 is indicated by the circle counter 3, and the number of seconds indicated on the main wave counter is indicated by the corresponding wave counter. The start sound is emitted from the wave speaker 10 for the number of times shown in 5, and therefore the circle counters 2 and 3 work the same as the wave counters 4 and 5 when operated independently in this way. do. Since the timbres of the start of both speakers are different, it is possible to practice on two courses that are arbitrarily set in terms of time and frequency by keeping their positions separated. Of course, by setting one of the circle counters 2 and 3 or the wave counters 4 and 5 to zero, the start sound can be emitted from only one speaker.

<Example> A main circle counter 2, a sub circle counter 3, a main wave counter 4, and a sub wave counter 5 are installed at equal intervals on an inclined operation panel 1a of the apparatus main body 1. The main circle counter 2 displays a three-digit number, the other counters display a two-digit number, and the + button m and the-button n are placed at the top of each numeric field M and the numeric field is placed. To make the number larger than M, press the + button m, and to make it smaller, press the-button n to select an arbitrary value. Main circle counter 2
Indicates a fixed circle interval in seconds, and the subordinate circle counter 3 indicates the number of times the circle repeats. For example, when the main circle counter is set to "050" and the subordinate circle counter is set to "08", , 50 seconds is repeated 8 times. The main wave counter 4 displays a fixed wave interval in seconds and the sub-wave counter 5 displays the number of waves. Therefore, set the main wave counter to "05" and the sub-wave counter to "07". If it is, it means that 5 seconds are repeated 7 times.

6 is a changeover switch provided on the operation panel 1a. The circle wave side that interlocks the circle counters 2 and 3 and the wave counters 4 and 5, and the wave that operates independently.
Divide to the wave side and set to either side depending on the practice form. 7 is a power switch that can be turned on and off, 8 is a start button, 9 is a circle speaker connected to the main body, emits a start sound in relation to the circle counters 2 and 3, and 10 wave speakers are wave counters 4. The start tone is emitted in relation to the 5th side, and the start tones emitted from these two speakers are different. It should be noted that this start sound is designed so that a cue sound sounds after two preliminary sounds in order to ensure the accuracy of the start.

(Example 1 of use) Using the device of the present invention in a swimming pool, a so-called circle practice in which 50 meters are repeated 10 times at 60-second intervals and a so-called wave practice in which 5 people swim every 5 seconds are linked together. Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, first, the main circle counter 2 sets the circle interval 60 (seconds), the sub circle counter 3 sets the number of times the circle is repeated 10 (times), and the main wave. Set the wave interval 5 (seconds) on the counter 4 and the number of waves 5 (times) on the sub-wave counter 5.
Set. Next, when the changeover switch 6 is set to the circle side and the power switch 7 is turned on and then the start button 8 is pressed, the start sounds A and a are simultaneously emitted from the circle speaker 9 and the wave speaker 10, and the first swimmer starts. 5 seconds later, the second start sound b was emitted from the wave speaker 10 to start the second swimmer, and the start sounds c, d, and e were emitted from the wave speaker every 5 seconds, a total of 5 times. At the start sound, the five swimmers finish swimming and wait for the next signal.

And 60 seconds after the first start sound, the speaker 9/10
A new start sound A '・ a' is emitted and the leading swimmer starts, and the start sound b '・ c' is sequentially generated at 5-second intervals.
・ Five swimmers finish swimming after repeating d'and e '.

In this way, when the 60 seconds interval a shown on the main circle counter 2 is repeated 10 times, the device automatically stops and the practice ends.

(Example 2 of use) Next, referring to FIG. 4, the case where the present apparatus is used for both a course of 6 persons swimming at an interval of 5 seconds and a course of 4 persons swimming at an interval of 7 seconds will be described. Set the wave interval 5 (seconds) with the circle counter 2, set the wave number 6 (times) with the sub circle counter 3, and set the wave interval 7 with the main wave counter 4.
(Second) is set, and the number of times of wave 4 (times) is set by the sub-wave counter 5. Next, when the changeover switch 6 is set to the wave / wave side, the power switch 7 is turned on and the start button 8 is pressed, the start sounds are simultaneously emitted from the circle speaker 9 and the wave speaker 10 which are separated in advance. Both speakers have different tones, so the circle speaker 9 gives a start sound 6 times at 5 second intervals, so 6 swimmers can practice.
Four swimmers can practice because they sound four times every seven seconds from the wave speaker. That is, in practice in this case, since the circle counter and the wave counter are operated independently by the change-over switch 6, the speakers associated with the respective counters also emit a star sound having independent intervals and times.

In any of the usage examples, to stop the operation on the way, it is necessary to turn off the power switch 7, and when changing the set value on the way, the + button m of each counter,
-Operate with button n and press start button 8 again.

<Effect of the Invention> The present invention has the following unique effects.

(1) Since the start sound is automatically emitted through the speaker, the coach does not have to look at the clock or scream, and the amount of extra work can be significantly reduced. Therefore, the coach pays attention to swimming / running methods and pace allocation. As a result, the ability of each individual can be improved.

(2) You can freely select either circle practice or wave practice by operating the changeover switch, and you can easily change both the number of seconds and the number of times by changing the value on the counter. Can be used appropriately according to experience.

(3) The start sound is emitted from the speaker according to the counter value on the operation panel by an electric mechanism (not shown) inside the main body, so that it can be accurately transmitted to the practitioner, unlike a shout.
