Description

Trainer for the visually impaired and the elderly to enter park golf {TRAINER SET FOR THE VISUALLY IMPAIRED AND THE OLD TO ENTER THE PARK GOLF}

The present invention relates to a trainer for physical strength improvement and adaptation provided for the visually impaired and the elderly to practice for purposes such as muscle strength improvement before entering park golf. More specifically, it relates to a trainer for the visually impaired and the elderly and the weak for practice. When starting park golf as a daily exercise, it is about a trainer as an exercise equipment to increase adaptable physical strength and strength.

With the increase in the number of elderly people, the needs of the elderly population and the disabled are increasing, but these facilities are not for profit and are mostly implemented with the budget of local governments, so their distribution is not smooth and it is difficult to find idle land where they can be installed. .

In the case of gateball, which is relatively popular among the elderly, it is considered a desirable facility as it is suitable for the social life of the elderly using limited muscle strength, but there are practical problems as mentioned above.

Recently popular as a recreational sport is park golf, which is operated in a golf course with a reduced area and a wide range. Park golf has the advantage of allowing users to set rules and operate it at their own discretion, and it can also be installed indoors in a building. Since it can be configured as an indoor mini park golf course, its distribution is likely to expand.

In addition, indoor mini park golf courses can be distributed in the form of chain stores, and if there is assistance from local governments, rapid spread is expected. If many indoor mini park golf courses are installed close to residential areas, it will be very accessible for the elderly and the disabled, which will have many advantages as daily sports.

In the case of the disabled, especially the visually impaired, it is very difficult to access various social sports facilities, and as a result, they tend to live isolated lives, making it difficult to maintain physical strength. Moreover, they feel lonely due to the disconnection of interpersonal relationships, which makes it difficult for many to maintain their normal bodies. There are many difficulties.

However, in the case of park golf, it is thought that easy access for the visually impaired will be possible if it is set up indoors or outdoors in a nearby public park. Recently, a simple park golf set up indoors has also been proposed, so its distribution is urgent.

In the case of the visually impaired, the visually impaired with total blindness corresponding to grades 1 to 2 of the old disability scale (hereinafter referred to as ‘total blindness’) and the visually impaired with amblyopia corresponding to grades 3 to 6 of the old disability scale (hereinafter referred to as ‘amblyopic people’) ') can form a group and play park golf, with the person with low vision leading the proceedings and batting along with the person with total blindness.

However, visually impaired people suffer from lack of sense of direction for a long period of time and weak muscles, especially the lateral and medial heads of the posterior thigh and gastrocnemius muscles, which are necessary for continuous walking and physical movement, to the extent that ordinary people cannot understand with common sense. It is difficult to walk or exercise for long periods of time.

In the case of people with congenital visual impairment, they have no experience in physical exercise using their muscles, so gripping the shaft of a park golf club to hit a ball or putt is an unfamiliar and first-time act.

Therefore, before entering park golf for the visually impaired to improve their daily physical education and sociability, auxiliary exercise equipment is needed to stimulate interest in exercise and to form the minimum necessary muscles and become familiar with the rules to enter park golf. There are no suitable devices or facilities previously developed for this purpose.

Conventional exercise equipment for the visually impaired as sailors has not been found, but several exercise equipment for the disabled have been proposed. For example, in Korean Patent No. 10-1285155, there is a base frame with a space for a wheelchair to enter; a first arm rotatably formed on one side of the base frame; a chair formed on the other side of the base frame; and a second arm rotatably formed on the other side of the base frame, wherein the first arm and the second arm are provided with a resistance adjusting means to adjust the resistance, and the resistance adjusting means includes the first arm and the second arm. A bushing is connected to the base of the second arm and fixed to the base frame, and has a rectangular groove formed intermittently along the circumference at the bottom. It is inserted into the inside of the bushing and is detachable in the radial direction inserted into the rectangular groove of the bushing in the middle. A vertical shaft with a pin capable of forming this and a split groove formed at the bottom, a coil spring whose center is fixedly installed in the divided groove of the vertical shaft, rotatably installed on the outer peripheral surface of the bushing, and a tip protrusion of the coil spring is inserted at the bottom. It consists of a single pipe in which a groove is formed and the tension of the coil spring is adjusted as it rotates in the circumferential direction, a tightening nut that presses the outer peripheral surface of the short pipe and the bushing to secure it in the radial direction, and a cover installed to surround the lower part of the short pipe. We provide exercise equipment for both disabled and non-disabled people.

As another source, in Korean Patent No. 10-1379266, a pair of guide members in which sliding holes are formed; A sliding member slidingly fastened to the guide member to penetrate the sliding hole and slidingly moving along the sliding hole; A foot seating plate installed on the sliding member to move in conjunction with the sliding member; and a traction member rotatably installed on the guide member to be connected to the sliding member and sliding the sliding member along the sliding hole along with the foot seating plate when rotated about the guide member. There is exercise equipment.

In addition, in Korean Patent No. 10-2057071, the main frame is formed with an entry space for a wheelchair to enter and a holder for exercise equipment to be mounted; a support frame installed on the main frame to be rotatable by a pivoting member and having an arm support formed on one side to support the user's arm; and a vertical movement unit installed to interconnect the main frame and the support frame to move the one side on which the arm support of the support frame is formed up and down, wherein the support frame has two sides mutually interacting with each other around the pivot member. An exercise device for the disabled is proposed, which is formed to be bent, and where one side of the two sides on which the arm support is formed is formed to have a longer length than the other side opposite to it, forming a frame.

Korean Patent No. 10-1285155 (2013.07.05) Korean Patent No. 10-1379266 (2014.03.24) Korean Patent No. 10-2057071 (2019.12.12)

None.

However, in the case of the above-mentioned conventional seafarers, they are not targeted at visually impaired people, but at disabled people who have some physical discomfort.

Therefore, there is a demand for exercise facilities to increase the strength and stamina necessary for visually impaired people to enter park golf, and the trainer for visually impaired and elderly people to enter park golf according to the present invention is an exercise equipment provided to meet such purpose. And, by using the trainer of the present invention, visually impaired people can develop the kinesthetic sense required for park golf.
