Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a sports training device, in particular to a flying disc forehand throwing training device. Background Art

[0002] With the rise of the Frisbee sport in recent years, the Frisbee industry has gradually matured and standardized. Although Frisbee can be used for exercise and play with a variety of throwing and catching techniques, the definition of Frisbee equipment cannot be limited to toys; for example, people who are not familiar with this sport may think that just throwing it is enough. In fact, if you want to play Frisbee correctly, both professional and amateur players need basic training to ensure reliable exercise and bring rich fun.

[0003] According to the summary of relevant Frisbee sports research institutions and various instructors and sports enthusiasts in the past, the correct posture and technique of throwing Frisbees include at least different methods such as forehand throwing, waist shooting, hand-raising throwing, thumb push throwing, behind-the-back catching, contact catching, kneeling catching, and chasing catching. Among them, forehand throwing is the most common and important method of Frisbee throwing. The key points are: first, face the overall target, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, press the base of your palm against the edge of the disc, press the thumb against the anti-slip pattern on the disc, put the middle finger and index finger together, the middle finger is close to the angle between the inner side of the disc edge and the disc surface, and the ring finger is against the outer side of the disc edge; before throwing the disc forehand, keep the above holding method, and at the same time ensure that the disc is placed on the side of the body with the face facing up, the wrist is pre-swayed backwards first, keep the parallel plane to assist the swing, and swing the wrist forward to exert force, and the force is transmitted from the forearm to the wrist, and then to the middle finger to push the disc out.

[0004] Obviously, Frisbee is a promising sport. The design of related products and equipment cannot be limited to the superficial cognition of traditional appearance, color, etc., but needs further research and development. As the most important forehand throwing method introduced above, the researchers of the technical solution of the present invention also analyzed the common forehand throwing methods of Frisbee in the past and found that the current forehand throwing training is caused by the lack of corresponding equipment:

[0005] First, when throwing a disc with the forehand, the disc needs to have a very fast rotation speed, so as to achieve the effect of breaking the wind during flight. Usually, the main difficulty in ensuring the rotation speed is the lack of wrist strength, which requires targeted strengthening training of wrist strength and mastering the technical points of wrist strength. However, there is a lack of such equipment in this field.

[0006] Secondly, there is no Frisbee training equipment that can support the trainee to train alone. Some auxiliary equipment currently used cannot achieve a "progressive" training process from easy to difficult, so it cannot provide a guarantee for advanced learning of Frisbee forehand throwing technology.

[0007] In addition, the trainer cannot obtain reminders regarding the training level and training posture in the single practice state. Moreover, considering the force application method of the forehand frisbee throw, it is inconvenient to conduct forehand frisbee throw training without a frisbee or when alone, making it easy for the forehand frisbee throw practice to get into trouble.

[0008] Based on the existing well-known technologies and the technical means implemented by some technicians, the designers of the technical solution of the present invention propose a forehand frisbee throw training device, so as to enable the trainer to practice the correct forehand release posture and force application method during frisbee throwing and facilitate timely inspection. Therefore, the proposed technical solution can alleviate, partially solve, or completely solve the problems existing in the prior art. At the same time, the technical solution proposed by the present invention is also to meet the practice needs of the vast number of frisbee amateur enthusiasts, professional athletes, and other sports groups. Summary of the Invention

[0009] To overcome the above problems or at least partially alleviate or partially solve the above problems, the present invention provides a forehand frisbee throw training device, which has the same force application principle as the forehand frisbee throw, and can conveniently use the training device to inspect and improve the release posture, force application method, etc. of the forehand frisbee throw during practice without a frisbee or when alone.

[0010] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0011] A forehand frisbee throw training device for training and inspecting the correct technical action of forehand throwing and pinching the frisbee, the training device comprising:

[0012] A base with a perforation for winding and fixing a magic tape at the fingertip position of the middle finger of the trainer, so that the training device uses the fingertip of the middle finger as the key force application contact point for the forehand frisbee throw action and enables the fingertip of the middle finger to swing significantly when applying force for frisbee throwing;

[0013] A rotating crossbar, with a bearing assembled on the bottom surface at the position of three-fourths of the rod body length, and movably connected to the base through the bearing;

[0014] A thumb pressing position is arranged on the surface of the rotating crossbar and is located at the second phalanx of the index finger of the trainer. When the trainer swings the wrist from back to front, the thumb releases the thumb pressing position and the palm is stretched flat, so that the rotating crossbar rotates above the base without being interfered by other external forces.

[0015] Combined with the above technical solutions, technicians can also implement additionally as follows:

[0016] Wherein, the outer surface of the base is connected to the bearing through a central column, so as to enable the rotating crossbar to rotate;

[0017] The training device is fixed to the tip of the middle finger, and the rotation speed of the horizontal bar is used to verify whether the wrist swing angle and speed when throwing the disc forehand are correct.

[0018] For training equipment, the speed, stability, and continuous rotation time of the rotating crossbar are used to reflect the shooting posture and force generation method during forehand throwing.

[0019] Of course, the base can be wrapped around the finger.

[0020] Alternatively, there may be a bearingless connection between the rotating crossbar and the base.

[0021] When this training device is combined with specific applications:

[0022] It can be used to train the player to throw the disc forehand only with wrist strength;

[0023] Or it can be used for trainees to perform forehand throws by combining forearm swing with wrist strength;

[0024] Or it can be used to train the trainee to perform a forehand throw by combining the strength of the whole arm and wrist;

[0025] Or it can be used to train the player to throw the disc forehand by combining the strength of the shoulder, entire arm and wrist.

[0026] The training device of the present invention uses the tip of the middle finger as the key contact point for exerting force in the forehand disc throwing action on the basis of the specific design of the position relationship between the base and the rotating cross bar. In the process of exerting force in the disc throwing, the tip of the middle finger should swing with the maximum amplitude to realize faster flicking of the edge of the flying disc, so that the flying disc has a faster rotation speed after being thrown. The training device cooperates with the trainee's hand shape to complete the training and testing of the forehand disc throwing. It can not only understand the trainee's own training level in real time according to the different conditions of the rotation of the rotating cross bar, but also enable the trainee to support the advanced training process from easy to difficult by one person, including the transition from the training method of exerting force by the wrist alone to the training method of "swinging the forearm + exerting force by the wrist", which can be further transitioned to the training method of "swinging the whole arm + exerting force by the wrist", and further transitioned to the training method of "exerting force by the shoulder + swinging the whole arm + exerting force by the wrist", thereby providing a guarantee for the advanced learning of the forehand disc throwing technique. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Figure 1 The invention discloses a flying disc forehand throwing training device implemented by the present invention and a schematic structural diagram thereof.

[0029] In the figure:

[0030] 1. Base;

[0031] 2. Central column;

[0032] 3. Bearing;

[0033] 4. Pressing position;

[0034] 5. Rotating crossbar;

[0035] 6. Perforation. Detailed implementation mode

[0036] The frisbee forehand throwing training device to be implemented by the present invention aims to solve the problem that in the past, due to the lack of a reasonable and effective forehand throwing training device during frisbee training, the trainer himself could not test and train the correct forehand release posture and force application method when throwing the frisbee.

[0037] As Figure 1 shown, in terms of the design concept of the frisbee forehand throwing training device implemented by the present invention, the device base 1 is preferably designed as an arched structure, which is provided with a magic tape perforation 6 so that the magic tape can be wound and fixed at the fingertip position of the trainer's middle finger. The outer surface of the base 1 is movably connected to a rotating crossbar 5 through a central column 2. The specific connection method can be: a rotating crossbar 5 with a slot is used, and a bearing 3 is fixedly assembled inside it, so that the central column 2 of the base 1 is inserted into the bearing 3 to achieve movable connection, and the rotating crossbar 5 can rotate above the central column 2.

[0038] Correspondingly, a position for thumb pressing is left on the upper surface of the implemented rotating crossbar 5, that is, the thumb pressing position 4. When in use, when in the starting position state, the thumb pressing position 4 of the rotating crossbar 5 is located at the second phalanx of the index finger, and at the same time, the thumb presses on the thumb pressing position 4; when the wrist swings from back to front, release the thumb, straighten the palm, and let the rotating crossbar 5 rotate around the center of the bearing 3, that is, around the central column.

[0039] In addition, the assembly position of the bearing 3 of the rotating crossbar 5 (that is, the slot position of the rotating crossbar 5) is at about three-quarters of the length of the rotating crossbar 5. The remaining one-quarter of the rod section can be used to balance the gravity of the three-quarters of the rod section, so as to ensure that the rotating crossbar 5 can rotate more circles and improve the training presentation effect.

[0040] For the frisbee forehand throwing training device implemented above by the present invention, a magic tape (or other components, appliances, etc. with the same tightening and fixing effect made of different materials and structures) can be passed through the perforation 6 and wound and fixed at the fingertip position of the middle finger. Tightening the magic tape can keep the base 1 and the central column 2 of the training device stable during use, so as to ensure that the rotating crossbar 5 is not interfered by other external forces during rotation, and at the same time ensure that the training device will not slip out of the hand when swinging forcefully.

[0041] The above-mentioned disc forehand throwing training device implemented by the present invention uses the tip of the middle finger as the key force contact point of the forehand disc throwing action. During the force-generating process of throwing the disc, the tip of the middle finger should swing to the maximum extent to achieve a faster flicking of the edge of the disc, thereby allowing the disc to have a faster rotation speed after being thrown.

[0042] Specific training time:

[0043] In the starting state, the trainee presses the thumb on the thumb pressing position 4. The hand shape (i.e. the finger position state) at this time is consistent with the hand shape when throwing the real frisbee, which can effectively train and develop the correct forehand throwing and pinching disc technical movements.

[0044] In the throwing state, when the wrist swings from back to front, release the thumb, stretch the palm flat, and let the rotating crossbar 5 rotate, which truly simulates and restores the throwing posture and force method when throwing the frisbee forehand, as well as the rotating state of the frisbee after the frisbee is thrown correctly.

[0045] Furthermore, through the practical application of the training device by the trainee, it can at least be proved that the faster the rotating crossbar 5 rotates, the more stable it is and the longer it rotates, which reflects that the more accurate the hand posture and force generation method are during the forehand throw, and the greater the wrist strength is; on the contrary, it proves that the force generation mode needs to be adjusted. Since the training device is fixed to the tip of the middle finger, the rotation speed of the rotating crossbar 5 is used to verify whether the wrist swing angle and speed during the forehand throw are correct, which is a presentation of the result of whether the force generation is correct during the entire forehand throw process.

[0046] It can be seen that by reasonably coordinating the positional relationship between the rotating cross bar 5, the thumb pressing position, and the base 1, not only can the correct forehand shooting posture and force generation method when throwing the flying disc be truly and effectively tested and trained, but the trainee's own training level can also be understood in real time according to the different rotation conditions of the rotating cross bar 5, reminding him to seek breakthroughs in different training levels from various aspects such as hand shape, strength, and angle.

[0047] In the disc forehand throwing training device implemented by the present invention, the base 1 can be fixed on the finger by wrapping it with other materials, such as a rubber ring or a cloth bag, and the connection between the rotating cross bar 5 and the base 1 can be a non-bearing connection.

[0048] like Figure 1As shown in the figure, for the frisbee forehand throwing training device implemented by the present invention, the power of forehand throwing can be solely derived from the wrist, or can be derived from "forearm swing + wrist", or can be derived from "whole arm + wrist", or can be derived from "shoulder + whole arm + wrist". Attention should be paid to the order of force application for different parts. The general principle of the force application order is to apply force sequentially from the proximal end to the distal end of the limb (i.e., in the order of shoulder, whole arm, and forearm) and finally conduct it to the fingertip of the middle finger. Therefore, this training device can support the training process from easy to difficult: that is, from the practice method of solely using the wrist to apply force, transitioning to the practice method of "forearm swing + wrist force application", then to the practice method of "whole arm swing + wrist force application", and can further transition to the practice method of "shoulder force application + whole arm swing + wrist force application". Obviously, it can provide guarantee for the advanced learning of frisbee forehand throwing technique.

[0049] The technical solution implemented by the present invention mainly examines and trains the correct forehand release posture and force application method during frisbee throwing through the cooperation of the positional relationships set among the rotating crossbar 5, the thumb pressing position, and the base 1. It can also be used as a throwing trainer for overhead throws and over-the-shoulder throws because the wrist force application methods for these two types of throws are the same as that of the forehand throw, only the positions of the frisbee at the time of throwing are different. In addition, based on the same concept, corresponding auxiliary technical means can be additionally added according to different application requirements. There is no need to specifically limit the specific shape, size of the base, length of the crossbar, and other technical means used in the design. All existing technical means that can be adopted by the technical solution of the present invention can be further implemented by those skilled in the art on the basis of the technical solution implemented by the present invention. Therefore, including the specific dimensions or lengths used, all these conventional technical means that do not fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention do not necessarily require every detail to be refined in the specific implementation manner of the present invention. Obviously, the technical solution implemented by the present invention is actually a frisbee forehand throwing training device that enables those skilled in the art to refer to and implement it in combination with conventional technical means. Those skilled in the art can actually obtain a series of advantages brought by it according to different application conditions and usage requirements.
