Description

水中ウォーキング用ポールUnderwater walking pole
 本発明は、水中でのウォーキングを補助する水中ウォーキング用ポールに関し、特に、中高年の初心者が親しみ易く、容易に取り組むことができるとともに、ストレッチ体操の補助具としても使用可能な水中ウォーキング用ポールに関する。 The present invention relates to an underwater walking pole that assists walking in water, and more particularly to an underwater walking pole that is easy for a middle-aged beginner to be familiar with and can easily tackle, and that can also be used as an aid for stretching exercises.
 従来から、プールなどにおいて水中歩行運動が盛んに行われている。水中歩行は、腰や膝への負担を軽減して歩行運動することができるために、リハビリ効果や中高年者の運動効果を目的として行われている。また、陸上歩行よりもカロリーの消費量が高いために、肥満対策を目的として行われている。 Conventionally, underwater walking movements have been actively performed in pools. Underwater walking is performed for the purpose of rehabilitation effects and exercise effects for middle-aged and elderly people because it can reduce the burden on the hips and knees. In addition, since calorie consumption is higher than walking on land, it is performed for the purpose of combating obesity.
 しかしながら、水中で歩行すると姿勢が不安定になりやすく、中高年の初心者が一定の時間継続して行うことが難しいために、効果的な運動を行うためには指導者を必要とすることが多い。すなわち、陸上における散歩のように、気軽に行えるものではない。 However, when walking underwater, the posture tends to become unstable, and it is difficult for middle-aged beginners to perform for a certain period of time, so a leader is often required to perform effective exercise. In other words, it is not something that can be done easily like a walk on land.
 このような問題を解決するために、特許文献1には、リハビリテーション専用のプールが提案されている。このプールは、プールの外周に沿って回流を発生する回流発生装置、歩行者用手すりと緩やかに傾斜する床を備える歩行訓練セクションなどを備えている。
 また、特許文献2には、一人で水中歩行を行うことができる、個人用の水中歩行装置が提案されている。
In order to solve such a problem, Patent Document 1 proposes a rehabilitation-only pool. This pool includes a circulation generator that generates a circulation along the outer periphery of the pool, a walking training section including a pedestrian handrail and a gently inclined floor.
Patent Document 2 proposes a personal underwater walking apparatus that can perform underwater walking alone.
 しかしながら、通常のプールと異なる水中歩行専用の設備を設置することは、高額な費用を要するために、安価で気軽に使用できる設備とすることはできない。そこで、通常のプールにおいて、中高年の初心者でも容易に水中歩行を始めることができる手段が求められている。 However, the installation of equipment for underwater walking, which is different from a normal pool, is expensive and cannot be made inexpensive and easy to use. Therefore, there is a demand for means that allows even a middle-aged beginner to easily start underwater walking in a normal pool.

 本発明者らは、長年に亘ってスキー用ポール及び陸上ウォーキング用ポールを製作してきた経験から、水中ウォーキング用ポールの試作と実用化試験を重ねてきた。 The inventors of the present invention have made trials and practical tests of underwater walking poles based on the experience of manufacturing ski poles and land walking poles for many years.
 本発明の目的は、中高年の初心者が親しみ易く、容易に水中歩行を始めることができる水中ウォーキング用ポールを提供することにある。そして、水中歩行を、散歩と同じように気軽に行えるものとし、継続して行うことに魅力が感じられるようにすることにある。また、ストレッチ体操の補助用具などに利用できるポールとすることにある。 An object of the present invention is to provide an underwater walking pole that is easy for a middle-aged beginner to get close to and can easily start underwater walking. And it is to make underwater walking as easy as walking, so that it is attractive to continue walking. Another object is to use a pole that can be used as an auxiliary tool for stretching exercises.
 上記の目的を達成するために、本発明は、水中でのウォーキングを補助する水中ウォーキング用ポールであって、筒状をなすポール本体の両方の端部に、それぞれ把持部を備えていることを特徴としている。 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is an underwater walking pole for assisting walking in water, and is provided with gripping portions at both ends of a cylindrical pole body. It is a feature.
 そして、前記両把持部が、同一の材質であり、同一の形状を備えている構成とすることができる。
 また、前記両把持部及び前記ポール本体が、同一の軸線を備えている構成とすることができる。
And both the said holding parts can be set as the structure which is the same material and is provided with the same shape.
Moreover, the said holding part and the said pole main body can be set as the structure provided with the same axis line.
 前記ウォーキング用ポールは、拘束されることなく水中に位置しているときに、水面近傍に水平な状態で位置する構成とすることができる。
 また、拘束されることなく水中に位置しているときに、前記ポール本体の一部が、水面より上に位置する構成とすることができる。
When the walking pole is positioned underwater without being constrained, the walking pole can be positioned in a horizontal state in the vicinity of the water surface.
Moreover, when it is located in water without being restrained, it can be set as the structure which a part of said pole main body is located above a water surface.
 また、前記ポール本体は、両端部の外径が、他の部分よりも細く形成されている形状とすることができる。 Also, the pole body may have a shape in which the outer diameters at both ends are narrower than the other parts.
 また、前記把持部は、使用者が把持する筒状の把持本体部と、小指が当接する把持底部と、人差指が当接する把持頂部を備えている構成とすることができる。
 また、前記把持部の軸線に直交する断面が、全て円形である構成とすることができる。
Moreover, the said holding part can be set as the structure provided with the cylindrical holding | maintenance main part which a user hold | grips, the holding bottom part to which a little finger contacts, and the holding top part to which an index finger contacts.
Moreover, all the cross sections orthogonal to the axis line of the said holding | grip part can be set as the structure which is circular.
 また、前記把持底部の上面が、凹面に形成されている構成とすることができる。
 また、前記把持部が、前記把持本体部と前記把持頂部との間に括れ部を備えている構成とすることができる。
Moreover, the upper surface of the said grip bottom part can be set as the structure formed in the concave surface.
Further, the gripping part may be configured to include a constricted part between the gripping main body part and the gripping top part.
 本発明の水中ウォーキング用ポールは、筒状をなすポール本体の両方の端部に、それぞれ把持部を備えている。
 このため、水着姿の人が大勢いる水中でこれを使用しても安全であって、使用者自身も周囲の人も安心して、自分の運動に専念することができる。
 すなわち、2本のポールを用いて水中ウォーキングをすることも、1本のポールを水平に持ってストレッチ体操をすることも、自由にできる。
The underwater walking pole of the present invention includes gripping portions at both ends of a cylindrical pole body.
For this reason, it is safe to use it in the water where there are many people in swimsuits, and both the users themselves and those around them can devote themselves to their own exercises with peace of mind.
In other words, it is possible to freely walk underwater using two poles and to perform stretching exercises with one pole held horizontally.
 そして、両端に把持部を備える水中ウォーキング用ポールとしたことによって、以下に示すような優れた構成を追加することが可能となり、中高年の初心者でもこれを自由に、無造作に使用することができる。 And, by using an underwater walking pole with grips at both ends, it becomes possible to add an excellent configuration as shown below, and even middle-aged beginners can use it freely and randomly.
 すなわち、2つの把持部を同一の材質で同一の形状とすることによって、どちらを把持しても同じ感覚で水中歩行を行うことが可能である。
 また、2つの把持部及びポール本体が同一の軸線を備えていることによって、一層使い易いものとすることができる。
That is, by making the two gripping portions the same material and the same shape, it is possible to walk underwater with the same sensation regardless of which one is gripped.
Further, since the two gripping portions and the pole main body are provided with the same axis, it can be made easier to use.
 例えば、指導者の下で水中歩行やストレッチ体操を行う場合に、使用者は、単に何れかの把持部を無造作に握るだけでよく、把持する位置や方向を細かく気にする必要がない。
 したがって、中高年の初心者が親しみ易く、容易に水中歩行を始めることができる。
 ただし、ポール本体の両側を少し曲げて方向性を持たせることにより上級者向けとすることもできる。
For example, when performing underwater walking or stretching exercises under the instructor, the user may simply hold any one of the gripping portions, and does not need to care about the gripping position or direction.
Therefore, middle-aged beginners are easy to get close to and can easily start walking underwater.
However, it can be used for advanced users by slightly bending both sides of the pole body to give directionality.
 また、この水中ウォーキング用ポールは、拘束されることなく水中に置かれたときに、すなわち水中に放置されたときに、水面近傍に水平な状態で位置する構成とすることができる。これによって、プールでの紛失を防ぐことができる。
 また、水中でポール本体の一部が水面よりも上に位置する構成とすることによって遠くからでも認識できることになり、一層見付け易くすることができる。
Further, the underwater walking pole can be configured to be positioned in a horizontal state in the vicinity of the water surface when placed underwater without being constrained, that is, when left underwater. Thereby, loss in the pool can be prevented.
In addition, since a part of the pole main body is positioned above the water surface in water, it can be recognized from a distance, which makes it easier to find.
 ポール本体は、両端部の外径が、他の部分よりも細く形成された構成とすることができる。このため、ポール本体の端部を把持部に挿入して、一体化することが容易となる。
 また、他の部分の外径を大きくすることが可能となるために、水中での抵抗力を大きくすることができる。また、浮力を大きくして、水面より上に位置する部分を大きくすることができる。
The pole body may have a configuration in which the outer diameters at both ends are narrower than the other parts. For this reason, it becomes easy to insert the end part of the pole body into the grip part and to integrate them.
Moreover, since it becomes possible to enlarge the outer diameter of another part, the resistance force in water can be enlarged. Further, the buoyancy can be increased, and the portion located above the water surface can be increased.
 水中での抵抗力を大きくして水中ウォーキングを行うことにより、手首周辺及び上腕部周辺の筋肉を鍛えることになる。すなわち、浮力に逆らって、ポールを水中に抑え込む力が必要であり、手首周辺の筋肉を鍛えることになる。また、水中でポールを前方に進めるためには、水の抵抗力に逆らって前進する力が必要であり、上腕部周辺の筋肉を鍛えることになる。 By increasing the resistance in water and walking underwater, muscles around the wrist and upper arm will be trained. That is, the force to hold the pole in the water against the buoyancy is required, and the muscles around the wrist are trained. Further, in order to advance the pole forward underwater, it is necessary to have a force to move forward against the resistance of water, and to train muscles around the upper arm.
 把持部は、使用者が把持する筒状の把持本体部と、小指が当接する把持底部と、人差指が当接する把持頂部を備える構成とすることができる。これによって、無造作に把持した場合でも、ソフトで安定感のある握りを得ることができる。 The gripping portion may be configured to include a cylindrical gripping main body portion gripped by the user, a gripping bottom portion with which the little finger abuts, and a gripping top portion with which the index finger abuts. This makes it possible to obtain a soft and stable grip even when gripping without any effort.
 把持部は、軸線に直交する断面が全て円形となる構成とすることができる。これによって、把持する際の方向性が完全になくなり、無造作に把持することができる。 The gripping part can be configured such that the cross section perpendicular to the axis is all circular. Thereby, the directionality at the time of gripping is completely eliminated, and the gripping can be performed easily.
 把持底部の上面(小指が当接する面)は、凹面に形成された構成とすることができる。これによって、一層、ソフトで安定した握りを得ることができる。 The upper surface of the grip bottom (the surface on which the little finger abuts) can be configured to be concave. This makes it possible to obtain a softer and more stable grip.
 把持部は、把持本体部と把持頂部との間に、括れ部を備えている構成とすることができる。これによって、把持部が石突き部として機能しているときの柔軟性を高め、ソフトな接地を可能とすることにより、手首や肘を痛めることなく長時間水中ウォーキングを行うことができる。 The grip portion can be configured to include a constricted portion between the grip body portion and the grip top portion. This increases flexibility when the gripping portion functions as a stone thrusting portion and enables soft grounding, so that it is possible to walk underwater for a long time without damaging the wrist or elbow.
 また、水中歩行においては石突き部の耐久性が重要となるが、両方の把持部を石突き部として使用するために、耐久性が2倍となる。
 また、把持部の柔軟性を高めることによって、室内の廊下などでも床面を傷付けることなく歩行練習を行うことができる。
Further, in the case of walking underwater, the durability of the stone thrusting part is important. However, since both gripping parts are used as the stone thrusting part, the durability is doubled.
Further, by increasing the flexibility of the gripping part, walking exercise can be performed without damaging the floor surface in an indoor corridor or the like.
 本発明は、水中歩行及びストレッチ体操の補助具とすることが可能であり、それぞれ別の補助具を使用する場合と比較すると、購入費用、利用効率、及び収納場所など、全ての点で優れることになる。 The present invention can be used as an assisting device for underwater walking and stretching exercises, and is superior in all respects, such as purchase costs, utilization efficiency, and storage location, compared to the case of using different assisting devices. become.

 以下、本発明の実施の形態について図面を参照して説明する。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
 図1は、本実施の形態の一例である水中ウォーキング用ポール10の概略図であり、ウォーキングで使用するときの垂直状態で示している。水中ウォーキング用ポール10は、2本で1組をなすものであり、両手に1本ずつ持って歩行する。 FIG. 1 is a schematic view of an underwater walking pole 10 which is an example of the present embodiment, and shows a vertical state when used in walking. The underwater walking pole 10 is a pair of two, and walks with one in both hands.
 水中ウォーキング用ポール10は、筒状をなすポール本体20の両方の端部21、21に、それぞれ把持部30、30を備えていることを特徴としている。
 このため、通常のプールにおいても安全に使用することができる。また、ウォーキングをする際に、どちら側の把持部30を把持してもよく、中高年の初心者でも無造作に使用することができる。また、これによって、水中でのウォーキングを補助する本来の用途に加えて、ストレッチ体操の補助具としても使用することができる。
The underwater walking pole 10 is characterized in that grip portions 30 and 30 are provided at both end portions 21 and 21 of a cylindrical pole body 20, respectively.
For this reason, it can be safely used even in a normal pool. Moreover, when walking, the grip part 30 on either side may be gripped, and even a middle-aged beginner can use it without any effort. Moreover, by this, in addition to the original use which assists walking in water, it can be used also as an auxiliary | assistance tool of stretch exercises.
 上下の両把持部30、30は、相互に異なる材質や異なる形状として、把持したときの感触を変えることもできる。しかし、中高年の初心者には、同一の材質で、同一の形状とすることが好ましい。どちらか一方を選択して使用するよりも、無造作に使用できる方が容易に取り扱えるからである。 Both the upper and lower gripping portions 30 and 30 can be made of different materials and different shapes to change the feel when gripped. However, it is preferable for middle and old beginners to use the same material and the same shape. This is because it can be handled more easily if it can be used casually, rather than selecting either one.
 また、両把持部30、30及びポール本体20は、同一の軸線を備えていることが好ましい。つまり、各把持部30について中心軸を考えると、その延長線が、ポール本体20の中心軸と一致していることが好ましい。 Moreover, it is preferable that both the holding parts 30 and 30 and the pole main body 20 are provided with the same axis line. In other words, considering the central axis of each gripping part 30, it is preferable that the extension line coincides with the central axis of the pole body 20.
 下側の把持部30は、その先端34が石突き部となる。各軸線が同一軸線となることによって、下側の把持部30(石突き部)が床面を捉える感じを、上側の把持部30で把握し易くなる。そして、ポール本体20を太く形成して水の抵抗を大きくしても、水中でのウォーキングを容易にすることができる。 The lower gripping portion 30 has a tip 34 at the tip 34. By making each axis line the same axis line, it becomes easier for the upper gripping portion 30 to grasp the feeling that the lower gripping portion 30 (stone thrust portion) catches the floor surface. And even if the pole main body 20 is formed thick and the resistance of water is increased, walking in water can be facilitated.
 図2-Aは、水中ウォーキング用ポール10が、拘束されることなく水中に位置しているときの状態を示しており、図2-Bは、その一部を拡大して示している。 FIG. 2-A shows a state where the underwater walking pole 10 is located in the water without being constrained, and FIG. 2-B shows an enlarged part thereof.
 水中ウォーキング用ポール10は、水中に放置されると、水面WL近傍に水平な状態で位置させることができる。すなわち、水中ウォーキング用ポール10は、全体の比重が1以下となるように製作すれば水面WL近傍に位置させることが可能となり、全体の重心がポール本体20の中心となるように製作すれば水平に位置させることが可能となる。 The underwater walking pole 10 can be positioned in a horizontal state near the water surface WL when left underwater. That is, the underwater walking pole 10 can be positioned in the vicinity of the water surface WL if manufactured so that the overall specific gravity is 1 or less, and if manufactured so that the entire center of gravity is the center of the pole body 20, It is possible to be located at.
 また、水中ウォーキング用ポール10は、拘束されることなく水中に位置しているときに、ポール本体20の一部を水面WLより上に位置させることができる。
 水中ウォーキング用ポール10のように、ポール本体20の外径が比較的小さく、把持部30の外径が比較的大きい場合は、全体の比重をおよそ0.75以下となるように製作する必要がある。
Further, when the underwater walking pole 10 is positioned underwater without being restrained, a part of the pole body 20 can be positioned above the water surface WL.
When the outer diameter of the pole body 20 is relatively small and the outer diameter of the grip portion 30 is relatively large, such as the underwater walking pole 10, it is necessary to manufacture the entire specific gravity to be about 0.75 or less. is there.
 図1に戻って、水中ウォーキング用ポール10の把持部30について説明する。
 把持部30は、使用者が把持する筒状の把持本体部31と、使用者の小指が当接する把持底部32と、使用者の人差指が当接する把持頂部33を備えている。
 上述したように、把持部30の先端34は、突出させて石突き部を形成している。
Returning to FIG. 1, the grip 30 of the underwater walking pole 10 will be described.
The gripping part 30 includes a cylindrical gripping main body part 31 that the user grips, a gripping bottom part 32 on which the user's little finger abuts, and a gripping top part 33 on which the user's index finger abuts.
As described above, the distal end 34 of the grip portion 30 is projected to form a stone thrust portion.
 把持部30では、軸線に直交する断面が全て円形となるように製作されている。
 すなわち、水中ウォーキング用ポール10の立体的形状は、図1において軸線を中心とする回転体であり、把持部30についても同様となっている。
 このため、把持部30を握るときに、軸を中心に回転して方向を定める必要はなく、単に無造作に握るだけで、常に一定の感触で把持することができる。
The grip portion 30 is manufactured so that the cross section perpendicular to the axis is all circular.
That is, the three-dimensional shape of the underwater walking pole 10 is a rotating body centered on the axis in FIG. 1, and the same holds for the grip portion 30.
For this reason, when grasping the grasping part 30, it is not necessary to rotate around the axis to determine the direction, and the object can always be grasped with a constant feeling by simply grasping it.
 図3は、本実施の形態の他の例である水中ウォーキング用ポール11の概略図を、垂直状態で示している。水中ウォーキング用ポール11は、各部において、水中ウォーキング用ポール10とは形状が異なっているが、以下同じ符号で示すことにする。
 水中ウォーキング用ポール11は、2本で1組をなすものであり、両手に1本ずつ持って歩行する。
FIG. 3 shows a schematic view of an underwater walking pole 11 as another example of the present embodiment in a vertical state. The underwater walking pole 11 is different in shape from the underwater walking pole 10 in each part.
The underwater walking pole 11 is a pair of two, and walks with one in both hands.
 水中ウォーキング用ポール11は、筒状をなすポール本体20の両方の端部21、21に、それぞれ把持部30、30を備えている。
 このため、通常のプールにおいても安全に使用することができる。また、ウォーキングをする際に、どちら側の把持部30を把持してもよく、中高年の初心者でも無造作に使用することができる。また、これによって、水中でのウォーキングを補助する本来の用途に加えて、ストレッチ体操の補助具としても使用することができる。
The underwater walking pole 11 includes gripping portions 30 and 30 at both end portions 21 and 21 of a cylindrical pole body 20, respectively.
For this reason, it can be safely used even in a normal pool. Moreover, when walking, the grip part 30 on either side may be gripped, and even a middle-aged beginner can use it without any effort. Moreover, by this, in addition to the original use which assists walking in water, it can be used also as an auxiliary | assistance tool of stretch exercises.
 上下の両把持部30、30は、相互に異なる材質や異なる形状として、把持したときの感触を変えることもできる。しかし、中高年の初心者には、同一の材質で、同一の形状とすることが好ましい。どちらか一方を選択して使用するよりも、無造作に使用できる方が容易に取り扱えるからである。 Both the upper and lower gripping portions 30 and 30 can be made of different materials and different shapes to change the feel when gripped. However, it is preferable for middle and old beginners to use the same material and the same shape. This is because it can be handled more easily if it can be used casually, rather than selecting either one.
 また、両把持部30、30及びポール本体20は、同一の軸線を備えていることが好ましい。つまり、各把持部30について中心軸を考えると、その延長線が、ポール本体20の中心軸と一致することが好ましい。 Moreover, it is preferable that both the holding parts 30 and 30 and the pole main body 20 are provided with the same axis line. In other words, considering the central axis of each gripping part 30, it is preferable that the extension line coincides with the central axis of the pole body 20.
 水中歩行において、下側の把持部30は石突き部となる。各軸線が同一軸線となることによって、下側の把持部30(石突き部)が床面を捉える感じを、上側の把持部30で把握し易くなる。そして、ポール本体20を太く形成して水の抵抗を大きくしても、水中でのウォーキングを容易にすることができる。 In the underwater walking, the lower grip 30 is a stone bump. By making each axis line the same axis line, it becomes easier for the upper gripping portion 30 to grasp the feeling that the lower gripping portion 30 (stone thrust portion) catches the floor surface. And even if the pole main body 20 is formed thick and the resistance of water is increased, walking in water can be facilitated.
 ポール本体20は、両端部21、21の外径が、他の部分よりも細く形成されている。
 このため、ポール本体20の端部21を把持部30に挿入して、一体化することが容易になる。また、両端部21,21以外の部分の外径を大きくして、浮力を大きくするとともに、水中での抵抗力を大きくすることができる。
The pole body 20 is formed such that the outer diameters of both end portions 21 and 21 are narrower than other portions.
For this reason, it becomes easy to insert the end part 21 of the pole main body 20 into the holding part 30, and to integrate. Moreover, while increasing the outer diameter of parts other than both ends 21 and 21, the buoyancy can be increased, and the resistance force in water can be increased.
 図4-Aは、水中ウォーキング用ポール11が、拘束されることなく水中に位置しているときの状態を示しており、図4-Bは、その一部を拡大して示している。 FIG. 4-A shows a state where the underwater walking pole 11 is positioned in the water without being constrained, and FIG. 4-B shows an enlarged part thereof.
 水中ウォーキング用ポール11は、水中に放置されると、水面WL近傍に水平な状態で位置させることができる。すなわち、水中ウォーキング用ポール10よりも更に、全体の比重を1以下とすることが容易であり、全体の重心をポール本体20の中心とすることも容易だからである。 The underwater walking pole 11 can be positioned in a horizontal state near the water surface WL when left underwater. That is, it is easy to make the whole specific gravity 1 or less than the underwater walking pole 10 and to make the whole center of gravity the center of the pole body 20 easier.
 そして、浮力を大きくしたことにより、全体の比重を0.75以下とすることは勿論のこと、0.5以下とすることも容易にできる。これによって、ポール本体20の約半分を水面WLより上に位置させることができる。この状態であれば、遠くからでも自分の水中ウォーキング用ポール11を認識することが可能であり、見失うことがない。 And by increasing the buoyancy, the specific gravity of the whole can be easily reduced to 0.5 or less as well as to 0.75 or less. Thereby, about half of the pole body 20 can be positioned above the water surface WL. In this state, it is possible to recognize the own underwater walking pole 11 even from a distance, so that it is not lost.
 また、水中ウォーキング用ポール11は、水中での抵抗力を大きくしたことによって、単なる水中歩行の補助具ではなく、筋力を鍛える用具とすることができる。
 すなわち、浮力に逆らって、水中ウォーキング用ポール11全体を水中に抑え込む力が必要であり、手首周辺の筋肉を鍛えることになる。また、水中ウォーキング用ポール11を前方に進めるためには、水の抵抗力に逆らって前進する力が必要であり、上腕部周辺の筋肉を鍛えることになる。
Moreover, the underwater walking pole 11 can be used as a tool for strengthening muscular strength, not just an underwater walking aid, by increasing the resistance in water.
That is, a force to hold the entire underwater walking pole 11 underwater against the buoyancy is required, and muscles around the wrist are trained. Further, in order to advance the underwater walking pole 11 forward, a force to move forward against the resistance of water is required, and muscles around the upper arm are trained.
 図5には、図3に示した把持部30を拡大した断面図で示している。
 把持部30は、使用者が把持する筒状の端本体部31と、使用者の小指が当接する把持底部32と、使用者の人差指が当接する把持頂部33を備えている。
 また、下部に位置した把持部30の先端は、石突き部を形成することになる。
FIG. 5 shows an enlarged cross-sectional view of the grip portion 30 shown in FIG.
The grip portion 30 includes a cylindrical end main body portion 31 that the user grips, a grip bottom portion 32 on which the user's little finger abuts, and a grip top portion 33 on which the user's index finger abuts.
Moreover, the front-end | tip of the holding part 30 located in the lower part forms a stone thrust part.
 把持部30は、軸線に直交する断面が全て円形となるように製作されている。
 すなわち、水中ウォーキング用ポール11の立体的形状は、図3において軸線を中心とする回転体であり、把持部30についても同様となっている。
 このため、把持部30を握るときに、軸を中心に回転して方向を定める必要はなく、単に無造作に握るだけで常に一定の感触で把持することができる。
The grip portion 30 is manufactured so that the cross section perpendicular to the axis is all circular.
That is, the three-dimensional shape of the underwater walking pole 11 is a rotating body centered on the axis in FIG. 3, and the same holds for the grip portion 30.
For this reason, when grasping the grasping part 30, it is not necessary to rotate around the axis to determine the direction, and the object can be always grasped with a constant feeling simply by grasping it.
 把持底部32の上面36(小指が当接する面)は、凹面に形成されている。このため、把持したときに、小指と掌が上面36に包み込まれる感じとなり、ソフトで安定した握りの感触を得ることができる。 The upper surface 36 (the surface on which the little finger abuts) of the grip bottom portion 32 is formed as a concave surface. For this reason, when grasped, the little finger and the palm are wrapped in the upper surface 36, and a soft and stable grip feel can be obtained.
 また、把持本体部31と把持頂部33との間には、括れ部35が形成されている。このため、把持頂部33の周縁部は上下に変形し易くなっている。
 したがって、把持したときに人差し指が当接すると、周縁部が上側に変形してソフトな握りの感触を得ることができる。
Further, a constricted portion 35 is formed between the grip main body portion 31 and the grip top portion 33. For this reason, the peripheral edge of the grip top 33 is easily deformed up and down.
Therefore, when the index finger comes into contact with the gripper, the peripheral edge portion is deformed upward, and a soft grip feel can be obtained.
 また、下側に位置した把持部30の把持頂部33は、水中歩行において石突き部として機能するが、歩行に伴って床面に対する角度が変化するときに、その周辺部が把持本体部31に向かって変形することになる。これによって、ソフトな接地が可能となり、手首や肘を痛めることなく長時間水中ウォーキングを行うことができる。 In addition, the grip top portion 33 of the grip portion 30 located on the lower side functions as a stone thrusting portion during underwater walking. Will be deformed. As a result, soft grounding is possible, and long-time underwater walking can be performed without hurting the wrist or elbow.
 水中ウォーキング用ポール10、11は、水中でのウォーキングを補助する本来の用途に加えて、ストレッチ体操の補助具として使用することができる。体操は、水中で行うことも可能であるし、家庭内の床上で行うことも可能である。 The underwater walking poles 10 and 11 can be used as an aid for stretching exercises in addition to the original use of assisting walking in water. Gymnastics can be performed underwater or on the floor in the home.
 水中ウォーキング用ポール10、11を両手に持って行うストレッチ体操は、従来から陸上におけるウォーキング用ポール又はスキー用ポールを用いて行われていた体操と同様に、陸上又は水中で行うことができる。 Stretching exercises performed by holding the underwater walking poles 10 and 11 in both hands can be performed on land or in water, similar to the exercises conventionally performed using walking poles or ski poles on land.
 水中ウォーキング用ポール10、11では、陸上又は水中において、1本だけを用いてストレッチ体操を行うことができる。
 このとき、両手と両把持部30との関係は、歩行の場合とは逆に、把持底部32に使用者の人差し指が当接し、把持頂部33に使用者の小指が当接する。
The underwater walking poles 10 and 11 can perform stretch exercises using only one on land or in water.
At this time, the relationship between both hands and both gripping portions 30 is opposite to the case of walking, in which the user's index finger contacts the grip bottom portion 32 and the user's little finger contacts the grip top portion 33.
 そして、両手で両把持部30を把持したままで、これを頭上に高く掲げた状態、これを首の後ろ側に位置させた状態、又はこれを腰の後ろ側に位置させた状態などとすることができる。
 これらの状態で、上体を前後に倒したり、左右に傾けたり、左右に捩じったりすることでストレッチすることができる。
And while holding both the gripping parts 30 with both hands, it is in a state where it is raised above the head, a state where it is positioned behind the neck, or a state where it is positioned behind the waist be able to.
In these states, it is possible to stretch by tilting the upper body back and forth, tilting left and right, and twisting left and right.
 以上、図面を参照して本発明の実施の形態を詳述してきたが、具体的な構成は、これらの実施の形態に限らず、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない程度の設計的変更は、本発明に含まれる。
 特に、使用者が熟練するにつれて、方向性を備える態様や重量のある態様とすることが必要となり、様々な変形が考えられる。
 例えば、ポール本体20や把持部30の断面を楕円形とする態様が考えられる。また、ポール本体20の端部21、21を少し屈曲させて、ポール本体20が一定の軸線を備えない態様が考えられる。上級者用に変形したこれらの態様も、全て本発明に含まれる。
The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the drawings. However, the specific configuration is not limited to these embodiments, and design changes that do not depart from the gist of the present invention are not limited thereto. Included in the invention.
In particular, as the user becomes more skilled, it is necessary to have a directional aspect or a heavy aspect, and various modifications are possible.
For example, the aspect which makes the cross section of the pole main body 20 or the holding part 30 an ellipse can be considered. Moreover, the end parts 21 and 21 of the pole main body 20 are bent a little, and the aspect which the pole main body 20 does not have a fixed axis line can be considered. All of these embodiments modified for advanced users are also included in the present invention.
 本発明の水中ウォーキング用ポール10などを用いることによって、一般的なプールを利用して容易に水中歩行を行うことができる。把持部30を無造作に把持するだけでよいので、中高年の初心者でも気軽に始めることが可能であり、継続して行うことができる。そして、リハビリ効果や中高年者の運動効果を簡単に得ることが可能であり、肥満対策としても有効である。 By using the underwater walking pole 10 of the present invention, it is possible to easily perform underwater walking using a general pool.
