Abstract

PURPOSE:To promote motion in the abdomen activating a function of the internal organs while increasing an absorptive amount of oxygen into the body so as to promote health by placing an ankle in a lying attitude on a foot mounting bed, reciprocated in specific amplitude and speed, and reciprocating the ankle to the right and left. CONSTITUTION:An ankle is placed in a lying attitude on a foot mounting bed 1, and by reciprocating itself to the right and left, a leg is reciprocated to the right and left, so that an upper surface is formed curving matching with a shape of the ankle, preventing it from being laterally displaced, when the ankle is reciprocated, while being provided in a position of 100 to 200mm from a floor surface. A main unit case 2 is a supporting bed for supporting the foot mounting bed 1, housing in the inside a driving motor 3 and the other driving members. The foot mounting bed 1 transmits a motion of the leg, reciprocated in suitable amplitude and vibrative speed, to the abdomen, swiveling its part synchronously with the reciprocation of the leg, and the vibration is suited to be set to 10 to 30mm in its amplitude and 100 to 200 times per minute in the vibrative speed.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention moves both ankles back and forth to the left and right, which causes the abdomen to swing from side to side, thereby activating the internal functions of the abdomen. This relates to a device that improves health by increasing the amount of oxygen absorbed.

(Conventional technology and problems) Moderate exercise improves bodily functions.

In particular, when exercise affects the internal organs in the abdomen, the functions of the internal organs become active, and at the same time, the amount of oxygen absorbed by the body increases, improving health.

For this reason, exercises such as jogging and aerobic gymnastics have been practiced for the purpose of improving health, and many exercise aids, so-called health equipment, have also been used.

However, all conventional exercises are mainly muscle exercises and require a considerable amount of physical strength and muscle strength, so they are effective for people with a certain level of physical strength to strengthen their muscles, but those with weak physical strength cannot achieve true health. Not suitable for people who need enhancement
Moreover, it has the disadvantage that it is not very effective in terms of activating internal functions and promoting health despite the amount of exercise, and it also has the disadvantage that it takes a long time to exercise, making it difficult to utilize.

In particular, vigorous exercise such as jogging and aerobic exercises places a heavy burden on the respiratory and circulatory systems, which can even have the adverse effect of impairing health.

(Objective of the Invention) The present invention enables the abdomen to be swung from side to side without moving the body at all, extremely easily,
The purpose is to provide exercise equipment that can be used even by people with weak physical strength.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The abdominal rocking device according to the present invention has a
It consists of a footrest set at a position of approximately A means is adopted in which the legs are made to reciprocate from side to side by reciprocating from side to side at an appropriate speed.

(Function) In the abdominal rocking device according to the present invention, the legs reciprocate by reciprocating the footrest at an appropriate speed and reciprocating the ankle placed on the footrest from side to side.

This movement is then transmitted to the abdomen, causing this area to sway from side to side, which activates the internal functions of the abdomen, which also increases the amount of oxygen absorbed by the body, improving health.

(Example) Hereinafter, the abdominal rocking device according to the present invention will be specifically described based on the illustrated example.

In the figure, numeral 1 is a footrest, and 2 is a main body case.

The footrest 1 is for placing the ankle on.In particular, the footrest 1 is for placing the ankle in a supine position, and since it itself reciprocates from side to side to move the leg back and forth from side to side, the upper surface is placed above the ankle. It is curved to match the shape, and this prevents the ankle from shifting to the side when moving back and forth, and it is 100 to 200 degrees above the floor, preferably 16 degrees.
It is placed at the zero position so that the legs do not rub against the floor.

The main body gauge 2 is a support base for supporting the footrest 1, and at the same time is intended to ensure safety in use, and a drive motor 3 and other drive members are housed inside, and these are in contact with the human body. Furthermore, a handle 4, a timer 5, a power cord 6, etc. are attached to appropriate places for convenience of use.

The one-foot platform 1 is connected to a drive motor 3 via a drive mechanism 7, and is configured to reciprocate from side to side.

There are no particular limitations on the amplitude or vibration speed of the reciprocating motion of the footrest 1.As will be described later, by reciprocating the legs with an appropriate amplitude and vibration speed, the motion is transmitted to the abdomen, and this area is affected. Since the device is designed to oscillate in tandem with the reciprocating motion of the legs, the amplitude and vibration speed of the reciprocating motion of the footrest 1 are determined depending on the physique of the person using the abdominal oscillation device and the desired strength of the oscillating motion. It is appropriate that the amplitude be 10 to 30+m, preferably 22 m, and the vibration rate be 100 to 200 times per minute, preferably 157 times per minute.

The drive mechanism 7 is also not particularly limited.

In short, it is sufficient if the footrest 1 can be smoothly reciprocated with the desired amplitude and vibration speed, and even more if the amplitude and vibration speed can be adjusted appropriately. It is preferable.

FIG. 1 shows a drive mechanism in which the amplitude and vibration speed of the footrest 1 are kept constant.

That is, the drive mechanism 7 includes a rail 71 provided parallel to the reciprocating direction of the footrest 1, and a sliding piece 72 that is slidably attached to the rail 71 and reciprocates left and right along the rail 71. , a drive motor 3, a reducer 31 attached to the drive motor 3, and an eccentric pulley 32 attached to the output shaft of the reducer 31, and the sliding piece 72 has an outer diameter of the eccentric pulley 32. A vertical groove 73 with the same width is formed, into which an eccentric pulley 32 is fitted, and by rotating the eccentric pulley 32, the sliding piece 72 reciprocates left and right. .

The upper end of the sliding piece 72 protrudes from the main body case 2, and the footrest 1 is removed by one inch, and the sliding piece 7
2, it reciprocates left and right as it moves left and right.

When a person lies supine on the floor and places his or her ankles on the footrest 1, the chest and lumbar regions of the human body are in contact with the floor, and the abdomen and m-section are slightly raised above the floor. Therefore, when you reciprocate your ankle from side to side, your leg reciprocates around your lower back (buttocks). Here, footrest 1
When the amplitude and frequency of the oscillations are adjusted to the appropriate values mentioned above, the abdomen oscillates from side to side in a meandering manner in tandem with the reciprocating motion of the legs.

(Effects) As detailed above, the abdominal rocking device according to the present invention has 22
By placing an ankle in a supine position on a footrest 1 that reciprocates at a speed of approximately 157 times per minute with an amplitude of about It reciprocates from side to side, and as a result, the abdomen swings from side to side. As a result, the movement of the abdominal organs, particularly the internal organs in the abdomen, is promoted, the functions of the internal organs are activated, and the amount of oxygen absorbed by the body is increased, which has the effect of improving health.

Furthermore, this process does not require any physical movement and can be performed while the body is at rest, so it is extremely easy and has the advantage that even people with low physical strength can easily perform it.
