Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention is a training tool that controls the game with an expander equipped with a main operation switch.

The purpose and effect is to periodically apply force to the expander and stretch it, and the game will not progress unless you apply and hold the expander for a short period of time (about 7 seconds), so you can train your muscles. You can perform the most effective isometric exercise, and the main operation switch can be turned on and off.
This is a training tool with a new operating principle in which the time length of F relaxes muscle tension.

To explain the embodiment with drawings, FIG. 1 is a schematic block diagram showing a display device 1 of a liquid crystal display element as an example of a display element, a control device 2 such as a microprocessor that calculates game logic, and an input device 3. The input device 3 consists of an expander main operation switch 5 and sub-operation switches 4.

FIG. 2 is an external perspective view of the embodiment, and the upper surface of the case 6 includes:
Display device 1 and game selection switch 7 as a sub-operation switch
, a variable speed switch 8, etc., and an expander 11 equipped with a main operation switch 5 and a missile launch switch 10 as a sub-operation switch via a connection line 9.

The content of the game can be varied in various ways, and FIG. 3 shows a display pattern diagram of a spaceship game according to an embodiment. 12
is a spaceship, 13 is a spaceship movement route which is a scoring area, and 14 is a spaceship.
is the failed spacecraft, 15 is the obstacle, and 16 is the failed spacecraft.
is the movement route of the obstacle which is the moving failure area, 17 is the missile launched from the spacecraft, 18 is the score, 19 is the earth, and 20 is the back pattern representing the moon.

The game content is displayed when you press the game selection switch.
is selected. In the game where a spaceship flies back and forth between the moon and the earth, the spaceship first lights up the earth. When the expander is extended and the main operation switch is turned on, it starts moving toward the moon at a preset forward speed. Until we reach the moon, we must continue to extend the expander and keep the main control switch in the ON state. If you loosen your grip, the main control switch will turn OFF and you will return to earth, meaning no points will be scored. Points are earned by keeping the main control switch ON on the outward journey from the Earth to the Moon without making any mistakes. When you arrive at the moon, turn off the main control switch before you reach the failure area.
F to change the landing direction and place it on a trajectory that returns to Earth. It will remain switched off until it reaches Earth. It will pass at return speed to Earth. It is preferable to pass in 7 seconds on the outbound trip and 3 seconds on the return trip, and the speed may be set to a fixed value, but depending on the physical strength of the user, it is better to lengthen or shorten the time the expander is extended. Adjust the speed with the variable speed switch. Game A has a basic structure in which players compete to increase their score by repeatedly turning on the main control switch and heading towards the moon again before reaching the failure zone after arriving at Earth.

Each time the game selection switch is pressed, the next game is selected. Game B is a modification of Game A, in which a plurality of obstacles appear on the outward journey of Game A and approach the spaceship's travel path. If you collide with a spaceship, you will lose points, so the spaceship fires a missile to eliminate the obstacle and avoid the collision. The missile moves diagonally upward. By changing the way the obstacles appear, you can change the difficulty of the game and create many different games, and you can avoid collisions with unpredictable enemies and read the program and respond accordingly.

Figure 4 is a block diagram of the basic configuration.
The figure shows a block diagram of a modified example in which game B is played. Roughly speaking, it consists of a display device 1, a control device 2, and an input device 3, the game selection switch 7 activates the spacecraft display control section 21, and the spacecraft 1 is activated by input from the main operation switch 5.
Move 2. In addition, the spacecraft 12 moves with separate speed signals for outward and return trips predetermined by the speed control unit 22. Also, the speed is varied by a signal from the speed variable switch 8. The score display control section 23 determines the passage signal of the score area from the spacecraft display control section 21, adds up the score, and displays the result. In Figure 5,
The obstacle display control section 24 is started upon receiving an outbound route signal from the spacecraft display control section 21, and moves a plurality of obstacles according to a predetermined program. The collision determination unit 25 determines a collision between the spacecraft 12 and the obstacle 15, displays the result by subtraction via the score display control unit 23, and sends a signal to the spacecraft display control unit to blink the spacecraft for a short time to notify the collision. I will send it on the 21st. The missile display control unit 26 moves the missile 17 based on input from the missile launch switch 10. Explosion judgment section 27
determines whether the missile 17 has blown up the obstacle 15, and causes the obstacle 15 to disappear via the obstacle display control unit 24.

Since the missile launch switch 10 is a one-shot switch, the next missile cannot be launched until a certain period of time has elapsed since the launch.

In the case of Game A, the spacecraft can be moved and reversed by performing relatively simple up/down switching of the IC/reversible counter by continuously turning on and off the operation switch, but in this embodiment, the microprocessor This is a device that transmits continuous ON/OFF signals from the operation switch to the control device to move and reverse the spacecraft.

Also, if necessary, it may be possible to have a highest score memory display function so that the highest score can be updated, or to have a piezoelectric buzzer so that a sound effect is produced when a predetermined event occurs.

FIG. 6 shows an example of the main operation switch 5, and shows an elastic body 2 such as rubber.
two terminals 29A in the direction perpendicular to the stretching direction on 8;
29B is provided nearby to form the main operation switch 5, and the elastic body 28
If you stretch it out, it will touch, and if you put it back in, it will break. Terminals 29A are attached to the prismatic mushroom-shaped protrusions 30A and 30B integrally molded with the elastic body 28.
, 29B is fitted into a square hole, and its main operation switch 5 is connected to an elastic body 3 such as a rubber cord, which is an example of an expander.
It focuses on 1.

FIG. 7 shows an example of the gripping part 32, in which the end of the elastic body 31 of the expander is fixed, and at the same time the gripping part 32 is shaped like a conical spiral.
and the missile launch switch 10 of the sub-operation switch.
It is attached and can be operated by pressing with the ring finger or little finger.
