The present invention relates to a trainer set for physical strength reinforcement and practice provided for adaptation practice and muscle strength improvement before the visually impaired or the elderly enter actual park golf, and more particularly, for the physically weak, especially the visually impaired or the elderly. It is about a trainer set that can increase sensory adaptation, physical strength, and muscle strength before starting park golf. Furthermore, it provides a trainer set with a configuration that enables general people to enjoy and improve their physical strength.

In recent years, interest in various types of physical education has been increasing, and in particular, various methods and devices for improving the physical strength of all citizens are being sought in various local governments.

Most of the living sports facilities are provided as various exercise equipment installed in a certain space such as a park or a riverbed, or a gateball court, a tennis court, and the like.

Among them, in the case of gateball, it is considered a desirable facility in that it is a place for various socializing for the elderly as well as a means of exercise, but there is a problem that most users soon lose interest due to the simplicity of its rules or operation method.

As an alternative to gateball, recently, wooden golf clubs that provide limited inertia and park golf operated in a reduced form and wave number golf course have been widely spread. In particular, park golf is a It has advantages and can be configured as an indoor mini park golf course that can be installed indoors of a building, so its spread is highly likely to expand.

In addition, in the case of an indoor mini park golf course, it can be supplied in the form of a chain store, and rapid spread is expected when there is assistance from the local government. If many indoor mini-park golf courses are installed in close proximity to residences, the elderly will have many advantages as sports for life because access is very easy.

In the case of the visually impaired or the elderly, access to various social life sports facilities is very difficult, and accordingly, it is easy to live an isolated life, and it is particularly difficult to maintain physical strength.

Based on this point, in the case of park golf, if it is configured indoors or outdoors in a short-distance public area, it is thought that the visually impaired or the elderly will be able to access it. It is hoped that this will become even easier.

In the case of the visually impaired, those who are fully blind (hereinafter referred to as 'total blind') corresponding to the old disability level 1 to 2, and those with amblyopia corresponding to the old disability level 3 to 6 (hereinafter referred to as 'low vision') ') may form one group, or the visually impaired and normal assistants form one group, and the amblysighted person or assistant leads the progress while performing batting with the fully blind person.

However, for the visually impaired, the establishment of a sense of direction and the use of muscles have not been performed for a long period of time to the extent that ordinary people cannot understand it, and this is because the visually impaired have hardly exercised.

In particular, in the case of a congenital blind person, since they have no experience of physical exercise using muscles, holding the shaft of a club for park golf to hit or putt itself is unfamiliar and a first-time act.

Therefore, it is necessary to develop an interest in exercise before entering park golf for the visually impaired to increase sociability and increase sociability, and auxiliary exercise equipment is needed for the formation of muscles and knowledge of the rules necessary for park golf operation. There is no device or mechanism developed for this purpose.

In addition, since the ends of the vertical bars (21, 22, 23, 24) and the putting guide bars (41, 42) become cut surfaces of the pipe body, synthetic resin materials are used to prevent harm to users and intrusion of rainwater. It is preferable to configure and provide the end cap (C) in the form of press-fitting.

The space between the pair of parallel putting guide bars 41 and 42 becomes a putting space R in which the user draws in a shaft (not shown) of a club (not shown) for park golf to perform training.

As shown, the putting guide bars 41 and 42 constitute an arc curved downward, which allows the visually impaired to move forward by inserting the shaft into the putting space R and learn the putting feeling or putting method. becomes a space

Therefore, when the shaft is attached to one of the putting guide bars 41 and 42 by the user and is swung for putting, the shaft is curved downward in an arc of reverse curvature to guide the shaft, thereby providing a putting guide in the putting space of the shaft. It is to perform the guide along any one of the bars (41, 42).

On the putting guide bars 41 and 42 that guide the shaft, so that the position of the swing angle of the shaft can be quantitatively grasped,

As shown in Figure 3A, the angle index (I) indicating the rotation angle is numbered by a method such as silk screen printing as an angle at equal intervals centered on '0 degree' in the center, and in addition to the angle index (I) Reference numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, or A, B, C, D..) that can be easily read by a pair of assistants, amblyopia or normal people, are printed in relatively large letters.

This means that when a visually impaired person and a visually impaired person with amblyopia play park golf together, the amblyopic person has one of the putting guide bars 41 and 42 (left or right) of the shaft within the putting space R of the blind person. This will be the normal putting guide bar 41 in the front for right-handed people.), In the case of putting and hitting by raising the shaft at a certain angle by informing the current position of the shaft as a numerical value, the hole cup target described later ( 100), so that the user, the visually impaired, can determine whether or not he is approaching the hole cup closely, so that he can recognize the sense of distance during putting according to the hitting force.

Of course, as shown in FIG. 3B, the angle index (I-1) of the recessed groove formed with the angle index (I) at equal intervals so that the blind person can sense the angle of the current shaft by touch, and as shown in FIG. 3C, the protrusion It is also desirable to form the angular index (I-) of the groove, and when the user swings the shaft, the user senses the protruding and retracting sensations by hand, respectively, so that the current position of the shaft (S) on the putting guide bars (41, 42) is sensed. do.

The angle index (I) is formed and provided on the inner side of the pair of putting guide bars 41 and 42, respectively, so that both left and right blind people can use it.

The vertical bars 23 and 24 upright on the rear side of the putting trainer 50 may have a substantially 'c' shape connected integrally by the horizontal bar 25, and in this case, the strength of the frame increases.

In addition, on the rear side of the putting trainer 50, the bolt tray 45, which stores a large number of park golf balls G, is a channel-shaped pipe bending body, and the vertical bars 23 and 24 fastening pipe parts 23 'and 24' ), it is possible to attach or detach it, but it is not necessary.

The hole cup target 100 is provided as a cooperative mechanism that cooperates with the putting trainer 50 to increase the sense of park golf and induce interest in the user.

As shown in the hole cup target 100,
