Embodiment Construction

[0054] A balance training machine according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows the overall configuration of a balance training machine 1 according to a first embodiment. FIG. 2 is a plan view of the balance training machine 1 . FIG. 3 shows the configuration of the driving mechanism of the balance training machine 1 . Fig. 4 is a sectional front view taken along line A-A of Fig. 3 . FIG. 5 is an exploded perspective view of the balance training machine 1 of FIG. 1 viewed from the rear right side.

[0055] The balance training machine 1 includes: a seat 2 and a support frame 4, etc., the seat is roughly in the shape of a horseback or a saddle, and is used for the trainee to sit on it; the support frame is arranged on the ground 5, supporting the seat 2. The seat 2 is configured to have a seat base 2a and a cushion 2b attached to the seat base 2a.

Abstract

In a balance training machine (1), a swing mechanism (3) that swings a seat (2) in a front-rear direction (X direction) and a width direction (Y direction) is rotatably supported on a support unit ( 11) on. A first tilting mechanism (12) for raising or lowering the rotation axis (T0) is arranged between the support unit (11) and the support frame (4). A second tilting mechanism (20) capable of compensating the posture of the seat (2) is arranged between the seat (2) and the swing mechanism (3). By driving the swing mechanism (3), the first tilt mechanism (12) and the second tilt mechanism (20) independently of each other, the stroke of the swing motion of the seat can be lengthened or shortened. Or, by driving the swing mechanism (3), the first tilting mechanism (12) and the second tilting mechanism (20) in association with each other, the motion track of the seat (2) can be changed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a balance training machine for training a trainee's balance ability by applying a training load to the trainee by making the trainee sit on a seat and swinging the seat in a manner similar to riding a horse. Background technique [0002] Recently, as a convenient training device suitable for all ages, the balance training machine has become popular, and it has not only expanded to ordinary household use, but has even been used as a medical device for rehabilitation training. For example, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2006-61672 discloses a conventional balance training machine with a compact configuration, wherein a swing mechanism of a seat is provided under the seat. [0003] However, this conventional balance training machine having a compact configuration has disadvantages in that motion modes are not sufficient and the motion stroke of the seat is somewhat small. Therefore, if a trainee is used to trai...
