Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a portable type reflex function training apparatus which enables training of reflex functions of finger tips with fun at home or others. SOLUTION: Push buttons 6 corresponding to finger tips of hands and lamps 7 positioned near the buttons are arranged on a board surface 2 of a portable type body 1. The lamps 7 light at random and a user depresses the push buttons 6 corresponding to the lamps 7 lit. An arithmetic means such as microcomputer built in the body 1 judges the speed and the accuracy of depressing the buttons 6 after the lighting of the lamps to display the age of reflex on a display section.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a portable reflex function training device using a push button.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art It is known that the reflex function of a person decreases with aging, and the reflex function may be reduced even if the nervous system or muscles are damaged due to an accident or the like. Therefore, as a part of medical practice, hospitals and the like sometimes perform training of reflex functions using large rehabilitation equipment. However, there has been no known device that can be used by ordinary people to enjoy reflex training while having fun at home.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems and to provide a portable type reflex function training device which can perform reflex function training of a fingertip while having fun at home. Things.

[0004]

A reflex function training device according to the present invention, which has been made to solve the above problems, comprises: a push button arranged at a position corresponding to each fingertip of a hand placed on a board; It is characterized by comprising a lamp that is randomly lit near each push button, arithmetic means for determining the age of reflection from the speed and accuracy of pressing the push button after the lamp is lit, and a display unit for the determination result. It is assumed that. In addition, it is preferable to display a handprint in which a portion corresponding to the palm is swollen on the board surface to clearly indicate the place where the hand is placed, and it is preferable to provide an input means capable of setting the lighting speed of the lamp.

[0005] The reflex function training device of the present invention can train the visual function and the reflex function of the fingertip by pressing the push button corresponding to the lamp which is turned on at random with each fingertip of the hand. In addition, since the result of determining the reflex age from the speed and accuracy is displayed on the display unit, the reflex function can be trained while having fun.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a reflex function training device of the present invention, wherein 1 is a portable type main body, and 2 is a display unit using a liquid crystal or the like.

The board surface 3 of the main body 1 is slightly inclined so that the front side is low, and a portion corresponding to the palm is a bulging portion 4.
The left and right handprints 5 are displayed so that the hand can be easily placed. A push button 6 is arranged at a position corresponding to each fingertip. In this embodiment, a total of 1
Although zero push buttons 6 are arranged, the number may be reduced as appropriate.

A lamp 7 is arranged near each of the push buttons 6. The lamp 7 is, for example, LE
D is used, and is turned on in a random order under the control of an electronic circuit built in the main body 1. The lighting speed (lighting time interval) is variable as described later.

Each push button 6 is connected to an input port of a calculation means (not shown) such as a microcomputer built in the main body 1. Reference numeral 8 denotes a power switch, and 9 denotes a setting switch as input means for setting the lighting speed of the lamp 7 and the like. If the difficulty level, the age of the user, the gender, etc. are input from the setting switch 9, the calculating means turns on the lamp 7 at a speed corresponding to the selected difficulty level, and presses the push button 6 after the lamp 7 is turned on. The reflex age is determined from the pressing speed and accuracy. The calculation means displays the determination result on the display unit 2.

FIG. 2 is a flow sheet showing the operation of the reflex training device of the present invention. First, when the power switch 8 is turned on, the calculation means displays a message for inputting the difficulty, age, gender, and the like on the display unit 2. When the user sequentially inputs these and presses the start button 10, the lamps 7 light up in a random order. The user quickly presses the push button 6 corresponding to the lit lamp 7. The calculating means individually determines whether or not the pressed push button 6 is accurate,
Remember.

After repeating this loop about 20 to 30 times, the lighting of the lamp 7 is stopped, and the reflection age is determined from the stored data and the age, gender and the like input in advance by a calculation formula. The result is displayed on the display unit 2 such that your reflex age is 65 years old.

[0012]

As described above, the reflex function training device of the present invention trains the reflex function while having fun at home by pressing the push button corresponding to the lamp which is lit at random with each fingertip of the hand. be able to.
