DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a practice device for rolling a ball in gate balls, golf putters, etc., and can also be used as a ball rolling game machine.

(Prior art) Mastering gateball hitting and golf puttering is one of the keys to improving your game, and in order to roll the ball toward the target, you need to develop a precise swing, accurate distance, and sense of direction. It becomes basic. Moreover, among these basics, it is especially important to be able to swing in a straight line along the batting line, and to be able to hit the center of gravity of the head of the batting stick (gateball stick, golf putter, etc.) to the center of the ball. be.

Traditionally, when practicing hitting and swinging, in gateball, the target is the gate or ball, and in golf, the target is the hole or pin, and the player practices hitting and swinging.
Alternatively, practice was often done by setting up some kind of straight line and swinging the stick or putter along it, but especially in the case of gateball, in order to know the rolling distance and rolling direction of the ball, it was necessary to have a wide area. It was necessary to secure it.

On the other hand, various types of golf putter practice devices are provided.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) However, 4. Outdoors can secure a large area but is easily affected by the weather, while indoors, although it is not affected by the weather, it is possible to secure a sufficient area. There were problems such as difficulty in doing so. Also, when practicing swinging along a straight line of some kind, the only way to determine whether the swing was accurate was based on intuitive judgment.

Therefore, the present invention does not require a large practice area, allows you to practice hitting and swinging easily regardless of the location, and allows you to mechanically judge the quality of your swing without relying solely on feeling. To provide a ball rolling training device capable of mechanically measuring and determining the rolling distance and direction of a ball based on stability training, and allowing various exercises developed from conventional exercises. With the goal.

(Means for Solving the Problem) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a first contact detection device as a swing trajectory trainer which is disposed on both sides of the trajectory of the batting head and outputs No. 13 by contact with the head. The device is basically equipped with a notification section which is activated by a signal from the first contact detection section. a second contact detection section as a batting direction practice device that outputs a signal upon contact; a direction determination section that determines the traveling direction of the ball based on the signal from the second contact detection section; or the ball struck with the batting stick. A ball rolling training device comprising: a speed detection section; an arithmetic circuit that calculates an estimated distance traveled by the ball based on a signal from the speed detection section; and a display section that displays the estimated distance traveled. .

It is preferable that the ball rolling training device is installed so that the interval between the first contact detection parts can be adjusted, and the ball rolling training device is preferably installed such that the interval between the first contact detection parts can be adjusted, and the number of signals from the first contact detection parts, the calculation of the estimated reach distance, and the determination of the traveling direction are reduced. (It is preferable to include an arithmetic circuit that comprehensively determines whether the swing is good or bad based on either two, and a comprehensive determination section that displays the determination result.

(Function) The first contact detection units disposed on both sides of the trajectory of the batting head are moved in parallel and arranged at a desired interval, and the ball is placed at a predetermined position in front of the trajectory and then swung. . At this time, when the batting head is shaken or bent and comes into contact with the first contact detection section, the notification section is activated in response to a signal from the first contact detection section to notify the head of the shake. If the first contact detection section is configured to be able to move in parallel, the spacing between the orbits of the head can be expanded and contracted, and can be adjusted according to the degree of improvement in the swing. If this interval is narrowed, the head will come into contact with the first contact detection part more easily, and it will be possible to encourage improvement in the swing.

The launched ball contacts the second contact detection section at the leading end in the direction of travel, and the direction determination section determines the direction of travel based on the signal from the second contact detection section.
You can practice and adjust the ball's rolling direction, swing, and batting form. In addition, the speed is detected by a speed detecting section on the way of the ball, and upon receiving the signal from the speed detecting section, an arithmetic circuit calculates the estimated distance of the hit ball, and this distance is displayed on the display section. You can practice and adjust the rolling distance of the ball, the strength of the blow, and the method of hitting.

Furthermore, based on at least any two of the signal from the first contact detection section, the estimated distance traveled, and the signal from the second contact detection section, the arithmetic circuit comprehensively judges whether the swing is good or bad. If the judgment results are displayed in the comprehensive judgment section, the results of practice can be easily understood and the enjoyment can be increased.

Next, a target is set in the target setting section 17 of the control box 15 which is in the reset state. The target distance is set and displayed on the display section 17C using the key 17a, and the target direction is displayed on one of the three display lamps (left, middle, right) 17d using the key 17b.

After performing the above operations, the batter swings and hits ball A. At this time, since wires 33d are stretched at intervals on the upper part of the box 33 of the direction measuring device 3, even if the distance between the line 10a and the second contact detection section 34 is short, the second contact detection section You can identify and hit. When the head B contacts the first contact detection section 13a or 14a by swinging, a signal is sent from the detection section to the notification section 16, the buzzer 16a sounds, and the blinking lamp 16b blinks. , informs the batter of the shake of head B. Note that the notification section 16 can also play the role of either the buzzer 16a or the flashing lamp 16b.

The ball A hit from the hitting device 1 advances to the speed and distance measuring device 2, and passes between a pair of light emitting/light receiving elements 23a and 23b arranged at two locations, whereby a signal from the speed detecting section 23 is detected. The signal is input to the arithmetic circuit 24, and the estimated distance to the ball is calculated and displayed on the display section 25. At the same time, the signal from the arithmetic circuit 24 is sent to the arithmetic circuit I8b of the control box 15 indicating the estimated travel distance.

The display lamp 18a of the direction determining section corresponding to the direction is lit.

If the hit ball A contacts two or more of the second contact detection parts 34 of the direction measuring device 3, the circuit can be set to display the one that made contact first on the display lamp 18a of the control box I5. , it can be a more accurate device.

The difference between the target distance preset on the display section 17C and the estimated reachable distance displayed on the display section 25, and the difference between the target direction preset on the lamp 17d and the direction displayed on the display lamp 18b are determined by the control box 15. The arithmetic circuit 18b makes a comprehensive judgment, and the quality of the swing is displayed on one of the display lamps 18c (CA-B-CD) serving as a comprehensive judgment section.

The ball A that has contacted the second contact detection section 34 bounces back down the slope 33b and returns in the direction in which the ball is intended to be hit. Ball A
Even if the box 33 is hit hard, the wire 33d is attached to the top of the box 33.
Since the cover is formed by ., there is no risk of it jumping up and flying out of the direction measuring device 3. When passing through the speed and distance measuring device 2, it first passes between the light emitting/light receiving elements 23a and 23b of the three direction measuring devices, and the directionality of the speed detecting section 23 works, and the arithmetic circuit 24 is activated. do not. Therefore, the state in which the initial target distance is displayed on the display section 25 is maintained.

As described above, the ball rolling practice device uses the speed detection section 23
It is possible to know the quasi-determined reach distance to the ball by the speed distance measuring device 2 equipped with the second contact detection unit 3.
Since the direction of movement of the ball A can be determined by the display lamp 18a serving as a direction determining section of the control box 15 connected to the control box 4, there is no need to practice by rolling the ball far as in the past, and it is possible to practice in a large area. Therefore, it can be used both outdoors and indoors.

Furthermore, since each device is almost independent, it can be easily transported separately. In addition, it is preferable that each device be structured so that it can be fitted and connected by appropriate means.Furthermore,

It can also be arranged as a separate separate body.

In addition, the ball rolling trainer not only allows you to comprehensively know the rank of the quality of your swing from the display lamp 18c serving as a comprehensive judgment section, but also compares the target distance displayed on the display sections 17c and 25 with the estimated reach distance. Alternatively, the swing state can be known by comparing the target direction displayed on the display lamps 17d and 18a with the determination direction. Note that the judgment of the quality of the swing is made by the first contact detection parts 13a, 1
The signal from 4a may also be added. If you only want to know the estimated distance traveled or the direction of travel, the comprehensive determination section is not necessary, so the training device may be configured without the goal setting section 17. In addition, the ball rolling practice device of the above embodiment is
It can also be used as a game machine. For example, points can be given to the distance traveled by the ball, the direction in which it travels, and the results of these judgments, and the players can compete for the points.

In the striking device 1, when the head B contacts the first contact detection section 13a or 14a, the buzzer 16a and the indicator lamp 16b of the notification section 16 are activated, so that even a small vibration of the head B can be easily detected, and it can be used in practice. It can also be used alone to practice swinging without hitting the ball.

The striking device 1 can be made compact and convenient to carry by folding the striking area 11, which is pivotally supported by the mat 10, onto the back side of the mat 10 as shown by the dashed line in FIG.

In order to adjust the width of the trajectory of the driving rod head B, one guide plate 13 was made movable in the above embodiment, but the other guide plate 14 may be made movable, or both guide plates may be made movable. You can also do it. In the embodiment, the reset switch 19 is formed by the light-emitting/light-receiving elements 19a and 19b, but it is also possible to use radio waves other than light, magnetism, etc., and it can also be a manual push button type switch, or a push button type switch.
