1 is an external view of an apparatus for exercising muscles, which is an embodiment of the present invention as set forth in claim 1. FIG. 1 (a) is a top view and FIG. 1 (b) is a front view. is there.

The muscle training device 1 is roughly divided into a base portion 2 and a swing portion 3. FIG. 2 is an external view of the base portion 2,
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, on a substrate 4 such as a thin plate of aluminum or stainless steel, a swing shaft 5 swingably supports a swing portion 3 through a supporting member 11 (described later) like a seesaw. Bearing portions 6 are provided on both sides along the long side direction of the rectangular substrate 4. That is, as shown in the front view of FIG. 2B, the bearing portion 6 of the base portion 2 is formed as a pressing plate of the swing shaft 5, and a notch 7 through which the swing shaft 5 penetrates is provided at the center thereof. To be A support / stop plate 8 is attached between the bearing portions 6 on both sides, but both end portions 8a, 8b
The supporting / stopping plate 8 formed by being inclined so as to be uniformly lowered toward the central portion 8c respectively supports a supporting member 11 described later, and when the swinging portion 3 swings left and right. , Also plays the role of a stopper that determines the maximum swing angle.

In FIG. 2, the swing shaft 5 is shown as mounted. The shape of the notch 7 of the both bearing portions 6 is not limited to the half-moon shape shown in FIG. 2, but may be a circular shape having a diameter that allows the swing shaft 5 to pass therethrough.

FIG. 3 is an external view of the rocking portion 3.
3A is a top view, and FIG. 3B is a front view. As shown in FIG. 3, the main body of the swing portion 3 is formed of a plate material 9 such as wood, and a footrest 10 is attached to the upper surface of the rectangular plate material 9 symmetrically with respect to the center line in the long side direction. The footrest 10 is formed by a metal plate or the like into a wedge-shaped front surface, that is, when placed on the plate material 9, the footrest 10 is inwardly inclined so that the inner side is low and the outer side is high at a certain angle. It The foot rest 10 is attached to the plate member 9 at one end 10a on both sides, and the other end 10b is not fixed to the plate member 9 and has a shape that slightly jumps inward.

Here, the fixed inclination of the footrest 10 is preferably about 20 °, but it is not limited to this, and the swinging portion 3 is inclined to the left or right side to the maximum,
When one of the footrests 10 is maximally tilted outward, the upper surface of the other footrest 10 is just horizontal, that is, the foot axis of the foot placed there is vertical.

The method of fixing the left and right footrests 10 is not completely fixed, but the space between both feet and the direction of the feet (the tips of the feet are directed inward) can be adjusted according to the width of the foot of the user. Yes, this is more desirable. Also,
In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the shape of the upper surface of the footrest base 10 is rectangular, but the shape is not limited to this and may be the same shape as the sole of the footrest base 10, and the footrest base 10 may be caught on the footrest base 10 to prevent slipping. It is also considered as a modification to form the.

Next, on the lower surface (rear surface) of the swinging portion 3, a supporting member whose mounting side surface is an isosceles triangle, that is, a front shape is V-shaped and a shape like an inverted gable roof is formed. 11 is formed and attached from a strip-shaped metal plate or the like. The bent shape of the V-shaped projecting end of the support member 11 is formed such that the bending diameter inside thereof is slightly larger than the diameter of the swing shaft 5.

When the muscle training device 1 is not in use, the base 2 and the rocking part 3 can be separated by pulling out the rocking shaft 5, and when in use, the rocking part 3 When the support member 11 is placed on the support / stop plate 8 of the bearing portion 6 of the base portion 2, the V-shaped tip portion 11 of the support member 11 of the swing portion 3 is placed.
As a slides on the inclined surface of the support / stop plate 8, the tip 11a of the support member 11 naturally reaches the central portion 8c of the support / stop plate 8 of the base 2 and is stabilized.

In this state, the swing shaft 5 is passed from the front side of the base portion 2 into the notch 7 of the bearing portion 6, and the V-shaped tip portion 11a of the support member 11 is pressed from above so that the other end of the support member 11 is pressed. By penetrating the notch 7 of the bearing portion 6, the swinging portion 3 is swingably coupled to the base portion 2 in a seesaw shape.

In using the device 1 for exercising muscles constructed as described above, both feet are placed on both footrests 10 to stand upright, the upper half of the body is not moved, and only the lower part of the hip is rhythmically seen. Exercise by bending and stretching your legs as you would. As a result, the left and right knees move in a crossed manner to draw an X-shape when viewed from the front, and force is naturally applied to the muscles inside the knees and thighs, so these muscles are trained and the muscles of the left and right legs are Well balanced and well trained.

In actual training, the robot is tilted to one side at a pace of about once per second, and one round is performed for 5 minutes, and a total of 1 to 10 rounds are performed. Take a short break between each round. In addition, when performing this exercise, 1.5
It is recommended to hold the balance bar of about m to balance the body. In the case of the elderly, a balance bar can be placed vertically in front of the device and used as a support.

By using the muscular exercise equipment 1, the muscles inside the knees and thighs are naturally loaded by rhythmic exercise, and these muscles are trained, and at the same time, the outsides of the ankles and back muscles are also trained. Therefore, it is the best training for physical fitness for skiing and golf, and also for beauty.

FIG. 4 is an external view of an apparatus for exercising muscles, which is an embodiment of the present invention as defined in claim 2. FIG. 1 (a) is a top view and FIG. 1 (b) is a front view. .

Compared with the muscle-training instrument 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, this muscle-training instrument 1 does not require the base portion 2 and supports 1
2 is formed so as to form an arc shape such as a semicircle when viewed from the front, and the other structure is the same as that of FIGS. The semi-circular support member 12 directly swingably contacts the floor surface 13 (installation surface). The maximum swing angle is the angle at which the end of the plate material 9 contacts the floor surface.

FIG. 5 is an external view of the right foot of the muscular training shoe according to the third embodiment of the present invention.
5A is a top view and FIG. 5B is a rear view.
