Benefits of technology

The patent describes a balance board that can adjust the resistance to movement. It is easy to use and less abrasive, which makes it more durable and last longer. The balance board has a disc body with a cavity and a through hole, a semispherical base with another cavity and a mechanism for adjusting the resistance, and a resistance member with an elastic component and a locking member. The invention provides an optimal training balance board for achieving better balance.

Problems solved by technology

Consequently, the conventional design is unable to regulate its magnitude of resistance, which may lead to inconvenience during use.

Embodiment Construction

[0017]The technical content of the present invention will become apparent by the detailed description of the following embodiments and the illustrations of related drawings as follows.

[0018]With reference to FIG. 1 to FIG. 7, a resistance regulating balance board according to a first embodiment of the invention comprises a disc body 1, a semispherical base 2, a regulating rotary lid 3, a resistance member 4, an elastic component 5 and a locking member 6. The disc body 1 has an upper concave cavity 11 thereon to accept the regulating rotary lid 3. A bottom surface of the disc body 1 includes a first lower arc cavity 12 for accepting the semispherical base 2. A through hole 13 is disposed between the upper concave cavity 11 and the first lower arc cavity 12. The through hole 13 is cross-shaped so that a lodging portion 421 of a hollow tube body 42 of the resistance member 4 can engage with the through hole 13. An upper surface of the disc body 1 includes a plurality of bumps 14 and gr...

Abstract

A resistance regulating balance board includes a disc body disposed onto a semispherical base. A resistance member is disposed inside the semispherical base. An elastic component and a locking member are disposed inside a containing chamber within the resistance member. A screw rod passes through the disc body, the semispherical base and the elastic component to engage with the locking member so that a user can rotate the screw rod to regulate a resistance value generated between the resistance member and the semispherical base to change the magnitude of motion resistance of the balance board, thereby achieving optimum exercise and balancing effects.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The invention relates to exercise equipment, and more particularly to a balance board that allows a user to stand on the balance board to perform balance training exercises.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]Balance boards are exercise equipment that help with balance training. A conventional balance board 9, as shown in FIG. 8, is composed of a stepping disc 91, in which a central bottom portion thereof has a grounding base 92 with an arced spheroid shape. While in use, the ground base 92 can stand on the ground, and a periphery of the stepping disc 91 provides raised feature so that a user must continuously regulate the state of their body and legs to achieve balance while standing on the stepping disc 91.[0005]However, the conventional balance board 9 still has the following problems during use: the ground base 92 is fixedly assembled or integrally formed at a bottom center position of the stepping disc 91,...
