Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an exercise training apparatus and in particular, to an apparatus for use in the development of skills such as speed, accuracy and blocking in various full-contact sports such as boxing and martial arts.
  • Boxing, martial arts and other full-contact sports are possibly the most gruelling of any other physical exercise in that they require the sportsman participating to be at peak physical fitness.
  • speed is required so that a fighter can punch an opponent or dodge an opponent's punch as swiftly as possible; power is required so that maximum force can be used when punching; accuracy is required so that when a punch is thrown the boxer has a greater chance of hitting a target; and obviously the skill of blocking is required to avoid being hit in areas such as the face and abdomen.
  • Boxing bags are heavy, padded, and cylindrically shaped bags suspended from the ceiling. Upon being punched, the bag generally sways slightly due to its weight and provides the user with little element of surprise on its return stroke. It is for this reason that heavy suspended boxing bags are generally used to help the user in increasing their power or to simply practice the style of their punch.
  • Freestanding upright bags like suspended bags, are heavy, padded and cylindrically shaped. However, instead of being suspended from the ceiling they are springedly mounted to the ground. A freestanding upright bag serves virtually the same purpose as a suspended bag and use of the bag does little to develop skills in the boxer.
  • a suspended boxing ball or ‘speed ball’ is a tear-drop shaped, padded bag suspended underneath a flat platform at around head-height.
  • the bag is allowed pivotal motion in any direction beneath the platform. For example, when the bag is punched it swings upwards, hits the platform and rebounds back to either receive the user's next punch or hit the front side of the platform and then receive a punch depending on the routine of the user. The user then generally performs a rapid repetition of this motion, thereby practicing both speed and accuracy. There is no movement of the suspended location of the ball and therefore, once again, there is no element of surprise as to where the ball will return once hit.
  • Double-ended punching balls are generally spherical padded balls which are elastically tethered at their top and bottom poles to a top platform and a bottom platform respectively.
  • This device allows the user to improve skills such as speed and accuracy and also defensive skills such as blocking.
  • an exercise training apparatus including:
  • said arm is further tiltably attached to said support member.
  • said arm is further pivotably attached to said support member.
  • said arm is rotatably and/or tiltably and/or pivotably attached to said support member.
  • said arm is constructed of a resilient material.
  • said arm is of an elasticity which allows for tension and compression of said resilient arm.
  • said arm includes a first arm member and a second arm member, said first arm member adapted to slidably engage said second arm member.
  • said arm includes an arm locking means adapted to lock said first arm member and said second arm member relatively. This allows the user to set each arm of the apparatus at their desired level so that differing reaches of an opponent may be simulated.
  • said ball is mounted to a free end of said second arm member.
  • said support member includes a first member and a second member said first member fixedly attached to said base and adapted to slidably engage said second member.
  • said support member includes a locking means adapted to lock the second member within the first member. This gives the user the option of height adjustment.
  • said ball is made up of a soft, padded material. This ensures that the ball will not harm the user.
  • an exercise training apparatus including:
  • said practice component is further pivotably mounted along said shaft.
  • said practice component is further tiltably mounted along said shaft.
  • said practice component is rotatably and/or pivotably and/or tiltably mounted along said shaft.
  • said practice component includes a circular bearing which is journaled around an outer surface of said shaft and provides for smooth movement of said component.
  • an exercise training apparatus including:
  • said resilient arm includes a circular bearing-which is journaled around an outer surface of said shaft and provides for smooth movement of said arm.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view illustrating an exercise training apparatus in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic perspective view illustrating an exercise training apparatus according to a second embodiment of the invention.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates the training apparatus 10 in accordance with the present invention.
  • a base plate 12 is fixedly mounted to a flat surface 14 using bolts 16 , 18 , 20 and 22 located at the four corners of the plate 12 .
  • Extending upwardly from the plate 12 is a cylindrical support member 24 which is preferably welded to the base plate 12 at a lower end thereof and includes reinforcing elements 26 for added stability.
  • the support member 24 includes an inwardly chamfered upper end 28 defining an opening 30 into which a cylindrical shaft 32 is adapted to be inserted when assembling the training apparatus 10 .
  • the cylindrical shaft 32 is adapted to be locked within support member 22 by using any adequate locking means, such as a screw-type vice (not shown) which is well known in the art.
  • the shaft 32 may include a male threaded section (not shown) adapted to engage a female threaded section (not shown) within the support member 22 .
  • bolts 16 , 18 , 20 and 22 may well be replaced by a suction means on the underside of base plate 11 or other suitable fixing means.
  • base plate 12 need not be fixed to the ground and may just as well be fixed to a wall or platform (not shown). This would provide the user of the apparatus 10 with further options as to the type of training they wish to undertaken. For example, when mounted to the wall, instead of the apparatus 10 as shown in FIG. 1 functioning in a horizontal plane, it would function in a vertical plane. Another option would be to attach the apparatus 10 to the ceiling. In fact, the apparatus could be fixed to any surface that corresponds with the training requirements of the user.
  • the base plate 12 is preferably made of strong, heavy metal such as steel so as to lower the centre of gravity of the apparatus 10 .
  • the invention should not be limited to only this configuration.
  • a wide hollow base (not shown) could be used whereby an internal chamber is filled with water or sand to thereby stabilise the apparatus. This may even provide a further favourable unpredictability to the user in that the entire apparatus may be designed to sway.
  • a lower punching component 34 and an upper punching component 36 are rotatably connected to shaft 32 such that shaft 32 extends through central apertures 38 and 40 of each component 34 and 36 respectively.
  • the apparatus 10 includes stopping means for locking each component 34 and 36 at a particular height along the shaft 32 whilst allowing each component to rotate freely at that particular height.
  • the lower component 34 includes a circular housing 42 enclosing an annular roller bearing (not shown) or the like, which defines aperture 38 allowing the component 34 to freely rotate about the central shaft 32 .
  • Two identical arms 44 and 46 are connected, preferably by means of a weld, to the housing 42 and extend outwardly at opposite ends thereof.
  • Arm 44 includes two members 44 a and 44 b of stepped down cross-sectional size such that member 44 b is slidable within member 44 a . This configuration allows the user to adjust the reach of the apparatus.
  • Bolt 44 c locks the members 44 a and 44 b in relative position to each other.
  • arm 46 is identical in its configuration to arm 44 , i.e. member 46 b slides within arm 46 a with bolt 46 c once again locking the arms in relative position to each other.
  • Spherical balls 48 and 50 are fixedly attached to the ends of arms 44 and 46 respectively through corresponding annular support members 52 and 54 respectively. The balls 48 and 50 effectively act as the target surface when punching is being practised and as a return punch when blocking is being practised.
  • the upper component 36 comprises substantially identical features to the lower component 34 however, as is illustrated in FIG. 1 , the upper component 36 includes three identical arms 56 , 58 and 60 disposed equally around a central circular housing 62 . Those skilled in the art should recognise that each component may include any number of arms disposed about their central housings. Furthermore, rather than shaft 32 being fixed within the support member 24 and having rotating elements mounted thereto, the support member 24 itself may include the required components for rotation such that the whole of shaft 32 is rotatable within the support member 24 .
  • housing 62 encloses a circular bearing (not shown) defining aperture 40 allowing the housing 62 to rotate freely about the central shaft 32 .
  • Each of the arms 56 , 58 and 60 include the same slidable configuration as explained above and have therefore been numbered accordingly but not described here for the purpose of succinctness.
  • Arms 56 , 58 and 60 also include respective spherical balls 64 , 66 and 68 fixedly attached to their ends by means of annular supports 70 , 72 and 74 respectively.
  • the present invention can simulate the actions of a real-life sparring partner whereby when a ball is punched, the component 34 or 36 to which the ball is attached effectively rotates about the central shaft 32 . If the user wishes to practice a blocking technique, he/she can block the oncoming stream of other balls which follow in the path of rotation. If the user wishes to practice a punching technique, he/she can continue to punch the return balls thereby testing both speed and accuracy.
  • the apparatus 10 is especially effective because it includes two components, one 34 at waist height and the other 36 at head height which are the two areas most likely to be targets in the sport of boxing.
  • the heights of shaft 32 , lower punching component 34 and upper punching component 36 are adjustable to suit the height of the user. This is also of benefit when storing the apparatus 10 away after use in that when all three of the abovementioned members are at their lowest positions, the height of the entire apparatus is almost halved. Furthermore, the components 34 and 36 can also be dismantled from the central shaft 32 .
  • FIG. 2 A further embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in FIG. 2 .
  • the base plate 12 and supporting member 24 are identical to that shown in FIG. 1 and it is for this reason that the numbers referencing these components appear identical.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a training apparatus 60 .
  • a central cylindrical shaft 76 is housed within support member 22 as in the first embodiment however shaft 76 now terminates into a spherical bulb 78 at its upper end.
  • An annular housing 80 which encloses a circular bearing (not shown) is adapted to not only revolve around bulb 78 in a vertical plane (yaw) but is now also capable of tilt or roll around the outer surface of the spherical bulb 78 thereby enabling multi-axial movement.
  • Attached to housing 80 is an elastic tether 82 which pivots vertically about a horizontally extending clip 84 .
  • the elastic tether 82 is attached to a spherical ball 86 preferably by a simple looped connection 88 such that the ball 86 is capable of slight movement about the loop connection 88 when struck, as those skilled in the art would realise.
  • FIG. 2 further illustrates the various forms of motion 90 , 92 , 94 , 96 and 98 of the ball 86 , tether 82 and housing 80 using dashed lines which indicate the position of the ball 86 , tether 82 and housing 80 at two alternate positions 100 and 102 along its paths
  • This movement occurs due to the combination of simple rotation 90 of the housing 80 , tilt or roll 92 of the housing 80 , pivot 94 of the tether 82 about clip 84 , elongation 96 of the tether 82 , and slight movement 98 of the ball 86 allowing for a three-dimensional almost unpredictable or chaotic motion of the ball, features of which are common to those of a human opponent.
  • a user may well construct a training apparatus having a three-dimensional punching component (as in FIG. 2 ) attached at the top of the apparatus, and simply a horizontally rotating component (as in FIG. 1 ) attached at waist height.
  • the various forms of motion described in the present invention may be achieved using a wide variety of different joining components.
  • rotation of the arms may be achieved by using a simple ball bearing, needle bearing or bush arrangement as well as the roller bearing arrangement as described.
  • Pivot may be achieved using any swivel joint arrangement while tilt or roll of the arms may be achieved by using any form of rotary joint such as ball and socket joints, universal joints, or even CV joints and washers. It is to be understood that the present invention is not intended to be limited to any one of these components but rather the type of motion performed by such components.
