Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of shooting a bowling ball by wearing it on the wrist of an arm opposite to the arm on which the ball is gripped and extending the arm substantially horizontally to balance the center of gravity. The present invention relates to a bowling wristband that can be easily taken.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Bowling is an indoor game in which a bowling ball is held with one hand and the ball is rolled with a target (generally a tenpin) aimed at. The floor on which the ball rolls is called a lane, and both sides are gutters (grooves). Bowling balls are made of hard rubber or plastic, have a circumference of 27 inches (68.6 cm), and weigh from 8 to 16 pounds (3.63 kg to 7.26 kg).

[0003] The bowling ball has a plurality of finger holes formed on the surface thereof, one of the fingers is inserted into each of the holes to hold the ball, and the other palm is held against the ball to support the ball. Standing with both feet together, start running, extend the other arm almost horizontally at the timing of swinging down the arm holding the ball, step on the foot (left-handed person for a right-thrower) just before the shoot line, and arm from the top Swings forward with vigor and shoots by releasing the ball in a timely manner.

[0004] At this time, the effective foot (right-handed person is the right foot)
It is necessary to sneak behind the foot that you step on and kick it out in order to put weight on the ball and to make a destructive rolling. It is important to extend the arm opposite the arm that shoots the ball almost horizontally to balance the center of gravity of the body.

[0005]

However, at the time of the above-mentioned shooting, the bowler runs while swinging one arm receiving the weight of the ball greatly, so that the arm receiving the weight of the ball receives force. As a result, there was a problem that a well-balanced approach could not be made and a shot could not be taken straight toward the target.

[0006] When releasing the ball, the effective foot goes backwards behind the stepped-in foot and the ball is kicked out. The kick-out position is balanced with the weight of the ball. In addition, the ball flowed in the lateral direction (large deviation from the shooting direction), and the weight could not be sufficiently put on the ball.

Furthermore, the foot which is depressed when shooting the ball loses the weight of the ball and shifts in the lateral direction (the side of the arm holding the ball), making it impossible to swing the arm strongly. There was also a problem that it was difficult to give a favorable control to the lipstick.

Further, since a heavy ball is thrown with only one of the arms in a vigorous manner, a heavy load is necessarily applied to the hip bone, and as a result, the hip bone may be displaced, which may cause low back pain.

The present invention has been made to solve the above various problems, and when shooting a bowling ball, the arm on the side opposite to the arm holding the ball is simply extended substantially horizontally, and the weight of the ball is reduced. The purpose is to provide a bowling wristband that can be balanced.

[0010]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a band body worn on a wrist of an arm opposite to an arm holding a bowling ball, the band body being bendable on the band body. One or more plate-shaped weight members are accommodated,
The weight on the right and left sides of the body can be balanced by wearing it on the wrist of a given arm, and the weight of the wrist can be finely adjusted by changing the shape by increasing or decreasing the number of pieces or cutting, etc. Due to the bending property of the member and the property of maintaining the bent state, it was configured to well foot on the wrist.

Further, the invention according to claim 2 is characterized in that the band body is formed of a sweat-absorbing cloth, and is configured to be capable of wiping sweat out of a worn wrist, forehead and face. .

Further, according to a third aspect of the present invention, a plurality of pockets are provided on a band body worn on the wrist of the arm opposite to the arm holding the bowling ball, and a weight member is provided on all or a part of the pockets. By holding it and wearing it on the wrist of a predetermined arm, it is possible to balance the left and right weight of the body, and it is possible to finely adjust the weight of the wrist by selecting the material of the weight member and the number of insertion into the pocket It was configured as follows.

Further, the invention according to claim 4 is characterized in that the wrist worn when the band body having the plurality of pockets is provided with an interior sweat absorbent body and an external sweat absorbent body worn together therewith. The sweat absorbed by the interior is absorbed by the interior sweat absorbing body, and the sweat emitted on the forehead and the face can be wiped off by the exterior sweat absorbing body, and the appearance can be adjusted.

[0014]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing a bowler swinging in a state where an arm wearing a band of the present invention is extended substantially horizontally, FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a band body of the present invention of a first example, and FIG.
FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a rounded state of the band body of the first example, FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a band body of the present invention of the second example, and FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing a state of the banded body of the second example. , FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the interior sweat absorbent, and FIG. 7 is a perspective view of the exterior sweat absorbent.

The present band body 1 is intended to be worn on the wrist of the arm L ₁ and the opposite arm L ₂ which grip the bowling ball 2 bowler B, and is configured as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4 .

In the band body 1 of the first example shown in FIG. 2, the flat bag 1A is formed of a sweat-absorbing cloth (for example, towel cloth), and the flat bag 1A is bent from the opening 1B of the flat bag 1A. Possible plate-shaped weight member (for example, lead plate) 1
C (two sheets in FIG. 2). In this figure, reference numerals 1D and 1E denote fastening means, and a velvet type fastener (magic tape) is shown.

When the band body 1 of the present invention is worn on the wrist, the plate-shaped weight member 1 is arranged along the wrist.
If C is bent, it fits easily with the wrist, and the bent state is maintained. Thereafter, if the fastening means 1D, 1E is fastened, the foot will be well on the wrist (see FIG. 3).

Further, the band body 1 of the second embodiment shown in FIG.
Is a strip-shaped base material 11, an elastic sub-material 12 stretched on both upper surfaces of the base material 11, a plurality of pockets 13 formed by the sub-material 12, and all or a part of the pocket 13. And a rod-shaped weight member 14 to be accommodated therein.

At both end portions of the band body 1 of the present invention of the second example, fastening means 1
5 and 16 are provided. As the fastening means 15 and 16, a velvet-type fastener that can easily adjust the degree of tightening is suitable, but not limited thereto.

The band-shaped base material 11 and the auxiliary material 12 of the band body 1 of the second example of the present invention are formed using a strong and non-bulky cloth (woven or knitted material). It is desirable to have elasticity in the length direction (a-a direction). A material (such as cloth) that can absorb sweat from the wrist may be attached to the lower surface (skin side) of the base material 11.

The base material 11 and the sub material 12 are joined at both ends by means such as sewing means.
Are provided with a plurality of pockets 13 for accommodating the weight members 14. The pocket 13 is the auxiliary material 12
Can be formed by inflating the bag into a bag shape that allows the weight member to be inserted tightly and sewing the bag in the width direction. That is, by doing so, the weight member is inserted in a state where the pocket 13 is enlarged, so that the weight member is not easily dropped off. Further, when the weight member is rounded as shown in FIG. 5, the outer peripheral side can be expanded and bent or extended. It is preferable because sometimes it is not difficult. Of course, the pocket 13 may be formed by another method.

The rod-shaped weight member 14 is made of lead, stainless steel, or other metal material having a large specific gravity. In the case of the drawing, two types of weights, a square bar weight and a wide bar weight, are used. The rod-shaped weight 14 shown here is 1
Eight square bar weights of 100g each and two wide bar weights of 300g each are accommodated and conveniently adjusted to 1.4kg. The total weight can be reduced by appropriately selecting the material and number of weight members. It can be adjusted finely.

Although only two kinds of rod-shaped weight members 14 are shown in the drawings, a square rod weight and a wide rod weight.
By devising the pocket 13, it is possible to make it into a coin shape, a chip shape, a lump shape, a bead shape, a powder shape or the like.

In the band body 1 of the present invention of the second example, since the base material 11 and the sub-material 12 are emphasized in properties such as strength and elasticity, it is considered that the base material 11 and the auxiliary material 12 may not be made of a sweat absorbing cloth in some cases. In addition, it may be worn together with the inner sweat absorber 17 and the outer sweat absorber 18. The interior sweat absorbing body 17 is a wrist supporter made of a woven or knitted fabric organized with a highly water-absorbing thread such as cotton, and absorbs sweat generated on a wrist to which the band body 1 of the present application is worn.

On the other hand, the exterior sweat-absorbing body 18 is formed of a highly water-absorbing cloth such as a towel cloth, so that sweat generated on the forehead and the face during the competition can be wiped off, and the band body 1 of the present application is covered. It works beneficially for hiding and appearance.

[0026] In two bowling wrist bands respectively aspect of the above embodiment will be worn on the opposite side of the wrist of the arm L ₂ side arms L ₁ to grip the bowling ball. Thus, hanging vertically arm L ₁ holding the ball from the shoulder, the present band body 1 arm L ₂ of those who wear assuming extended substantially horizontally, the distance from the center of the body to the shoulder 2
If the distance from the center of the body to the wrist wearing the band 1 of the present invention is 70 cm, and the weight of the ball is 6 kg, the weight (X) of the band 1 in the present invention should be balanced by how many kg. Is determined by the following equation. That is, X = 6 kg × (20 ÷ 70), and X ≒ 1.7 kg.

Although it is ideal that the weight of the ball and the weight of the band body 1 of the present application are balanced as in the numerical values obtained by the above-described equations, it is not always necessary that the weights be exactly balanced. In other words, when the user wears the band body 1 of the present application and makes his / her arm almost horizontal, it is sufficient that the person (bowler) can be sensed when he / she senses the weight of the ball. In other words, the weight (X) of the band body 1 of the present application may be a person who prefers “heavy” or a person who prefers “light” in proportion to the value of the ball.

That is, the band body 1 of the present invention is selected from a plurality of weights prepared according to the material and number of weight members to be accommodated, as the one corresponding to the weight of the ball used by the bowler. It suffices that the weight is adjusted appropriately by pulling out or adding the weight member 14 later to make the weight close to the ideal.

[0029]

As described above, the bowling wristband according to the present invention is a band worn on the wrist of the arm opposite to the arm holding the bowling ball, and is a plate-like member that can be bent on the band. Characterized in that one or a plurality of weight members are accommodated, so that the weight member is worn on the wrist of a predetermined arm, and the arm is extended substantially horizontally from the time when the arm to be shot is shaken down to the time when it is shot. Weight balance will be better. Moreover, the shape of the plate-shaped weight member can be easily changed by increasing or decreasing the number of the plate-shaped weight members or by cutting, etc., so that not only the fine weight of the wrist can be adjusted but also the flexibility of the plate-shaped weight member can be improved. Due to the property of maintaining the bent state, there is an effect that the foot is well placed on the wrist.

As a result, according to the present invention, it is possible to achieve a well-balanced approach, to advance straight to a target (tenpin), and to make the approach straight, so that the ball can be shot accurately and the ball can be released. ,
The kicking position of the foot does not deviate greatly from the shooting direction, puts enough weight on the ball to obtain strong rolling, and depressed when releasing the ball Because the force of the foot is strong, the arm swings strongly without losing the weight of the ball, so it can give a good rotation to the ball, and the weight balance on the left and right of the body is good, so the burden on the waist is reduced And various other excellent effects.

Further, the invention according to claim 2 is characterized in that the band body is formed of a sweat-absorbing cloth, so that the effect of wiping sweat on a worn wrist, forehead and face can be wiped off. To play.

Further, according to the third aspect of the present invention, a plurality of pockets are provided on a band body worn on the wrist of the arm opposite to the arm holding the bowling ball, and a weight member is provided on all or a part of the pockets. It is excellent in that it is possible to balance the left and right weight of the body by housing it and wearing it on the wrist of a predetermined arm, and it is possible to finely adjust the weight of the wrist by the number of insertions of weight members into pockets It is effective.

Further, the invention according to claim 4 is characterized in that the band body having the plurality of pockets is provided with an interior sweat absorbent and an external sweat absorbent worn together with the band, so that the wrist is provided. The sweat absorbed by the interior is absorbed by the interior sweat absorbing body, and the sweat emitted on the forehead and face can be wiped off by the exterior sweat absorbing body and the appearance of the exterior can be adjusted.
