Description

[0001] LOW-FREQUENCY STIMULATOR ATHLETIC APPARATUS [0002]

The present invention relates to a sports device, and more particularly, to a sports device provided with a plurality of low frequency stimulators attached to a sports wear, a sportswear control device, and a wireless communication terminal such as a smart phone or a tablet PC, And a control program capable of controlling the low-frequency stimulator and the power source.

EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) exercise, which is one of the most popular exercise methods in recent years, is a method called micro-training. It uses a phenomenon in which muscle contraction is caused by electrical stimulation in the body, By making contact with the part of the body, it is an exercise method that applies a weak electric stimulus to parts of the body during exercise to achieve a higher exercise effect than usual. This is a newly developed method of exercise as it is used as one of the treatment methods for injuries of athletes since the 1960s, and is a new exercise method as the related technologies become more sophisticated.

As described above, the EMS exercise method as described above requires the terminal generating the low frequency to be attached to or closely attached to the user who exercises the exercise. Therefore, the user can directly attach the terminal generating the low frequency to the body, The effect of the EMS exercise method can be achieved by indirectly bringing the skin of the user and the user into close contact with the clothes or the band on which the terminal is installed. In recent years, the above-mentioned method of directly attaching the terminal to the body restricts the movement of the user due to the nature of being exposed to the electric wire extended to the terminal, and the troublesome part where the attached terminal can be detached due to sweat or oil generated from the body And a method of indirectly bringing the skin of the user and the user into close contact with each other by wearing clothes or bands is generally used.

In the general EMS exercise method as described above, the user performs exercise while wearing clothes or bands equipped with terminals generating low frequencies. Since the terminal can perform its function only after being supplied with electric power, It is not possible to carry out the EMS exercise method outside the room where electric power can be supplied or outside the limited outdoor space. Therefore, the user must actively perform the EMS exercise method A difficulty arises.
