[0002] After experiencing bad movement posture, the plantar fascia is tight, or the fascia is tight due to the arch collapse and other congenital factors, and the fascia of the foot needs to be relaxed or trained. When dealing with the problem of plantar fascia tightness, foot exercise training can be performed, but there is no training device that can assist in improving foot fascia tightness. Patients have difficulty performing foot exercise training independently, therefore, there is an urgent need for a training device that can assist in training the foot. SUMMARY

[0003] The utility model aims to provide a foot training device to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, at least to provide a beneficial choice or create conditions.

[0004] The utility model solves the technical problem by the following solution:

[0005] A foot training device, comprising: a shell, an upwardly arranged cavity is formed inside the shell, an opening is provided on the rear side of the shell and is connected to the cavity, a training block is provided in the cavity and can slide in the front-rear direction, an elastic member is provided between the training block and the shell, and the elastic member has a tendency to push the training block forward; a heel support is slidingly connected to the rear side of the shell, and the heel support can slide and be positioned in the front-rear direction relative to the shell.

[0006] The technical solution has at least the following beneficial effects: when in use, the front-rear position of the heel support is adjusted by sliding, so that the space formed between the heel support and the shell can adapt to the foot length of different users, then the position of the heel support is positioned relative to the shell, the position of the heel support is maintained, and the user's foot is placed in the cavity, at this time the heel is located on the heel support, the user's toes are clamped on the training block, the foot flexion and relaxation are controlled, the training block is driven to slide in the front-rear direction in the cavity, and when the training block slides backward, the elastic member is compressed, which can improve the strength of the training block sliding backward. When the user trains, the foot can be repeatedly stretched and relaxed, thereby achieving the effect of relaxing the plantar fascia tension, which is beneficial to assisting foot rehabilitation, and can be adjusted according to different foot lengths of users, and has stronger universality.

[0007] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the bottom side of the cavity is provided with a mounting groove, the bottom side of the training block is provided with a sliding block, the sliding block is slidingly connected in the mounting groove, the elastic member is a spring, and the two ends of the spring are respectively abutted between the rear side of the sliding block and the rear side wall of the mounting groove. The training block is slidingly connected in the mounting groove through the sliding block, so as to slide in the cavity along the front-rear direction. When the user drives the training block to move backward by the toes, the sliding block slides backward in the mounting groove, and the spring between the rear side of the sliding block and the rear side wall of the mounting groove is compressed. When the toes are relaxed, the spring can push the sliding block forward, so that the training block moves forward to reset for the next training activity.

[0008] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the rear side of the sliding block is connected with a sliding column, the sliding column passes through the rear side of the mounting groove and is slidingly connected in the shell, and the elastic member is sleeved outside the sliding column. The sliding block is slidingly connected in the shell through the sliding column on the rear side, so as to be slidingly connected in the mounting groove. Since the elastic member is a spring, the spring is sleeved outside the sliding column, which can effectively avoid the problem of easy torsion of the spring when the pressure of the spring is too large, and improve the stability of the spring connection and use.

[0009] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the training block and the sliding block are detachably connected.

Since the adjusting screw is threadedly connected in the shell and the connecting plate is slidingly connected with the shell, the heel support can be slidingly driven forward or backward with the rotation of the adjusting screw. When the heel support slides forward, the space between the heel support and the shell becomes smaller to adapt to smaller feet. When the heel support slides backward, the space between the heel support and the shell becomes larger to adapt to larger feet.

[0012] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the front side of the connecting plate is connected with a guide rod, the rear side of the shell is provided with a guide groove, and the guide rod is connected in the guide groove in a matched mode. The connecting plate is connected with the shell in a sliding mode through the matched connection of the guide rod and the guide groove.

[0013] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the inner side wall of the heel support is in an arc shape which is convex backward. The arc-shaped heel support can better adapt to the shape of the rear side of the human heel, thereby better providing wrapping and support for the heel support. In use, the heel is abutted against the inner side wall of the heel support, thereby providing support for the foot and improving the use experience.

[0014] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the inner side wall of the heel support is provided with a buffer pad. In use, the heel is abutted against the inner side of the heel support through the buffer pad, and direct rigid contact of the heel position with the heel support can be avoided by using the buffer pad, thereby reducing the wear of the heel after long-time use and improving the use experience.

[0015] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the bottom side of the shell is connected with an anti-skid pad. The shell is placed on the ground through the anti-skid pad, the friction with the ground can be increased, the shell as a whole is not easy to slip on the ground in use, and the use experience is further improved.

[0025] Referring to Figure 1 With Figure 2 A foot training device, comprising a shell 100 and a heel support 200, wherein the inside of the shell 100 is surrounded to form a cavity arranged upward, the rear side of the shell 100 is provided with an opening communicated with the cavity, a training block 110 slidable in the front-rear direction is arranged in the cavity, an elastic member 120 is arranged between the training block 110 and the shell 100, the elastic member 120 has a tendency to push the training block 110 forward, the heel support 200 is slidingly connected to the rear side of the shell 100, and the heel support 200 can slide and position relative to the shell 100 in the front-rear direction.

[0026] From the above, in use, the front and rear positions of the heel support 200 are adjusted so that the space formed between the heel support 200 and the shell 100 can adapt to the foot length of different users, then the heel support 200 is positioned relative to the shell 100, the position of the heel support 200 is maintained, and then the user's foot is placed in the cavity, at this time the heel is located on the heel support 200 and the user's toes are clamped to the training block 110. By controlling the flexion and relaxation of the foot, the training block 110 can be driven to slide in the cavity in the front and rear directions, and when the training block 110 slides backward, the elastic member 120 will be compressed, which can increase the strength of the backward sliding of the training block 110. In this way, the user can repeatedly stretch and relax the foot during training, thereby achieving the effect of relaxing the fascia tension on the bottom of the foot, which is beneficial to assisting foot rehabilitation, and can be adjusted according to different foot lengths of users, and has stronger universality.

[0027] The training block 110 can be directly slidably connected to the inner bottom surface of the cavity, and the elastic member 120 can be selected from elastic structures such as elastic rubber and torsional spring. In order to reduce the exposure of the sliding connection structure of the training block 110, the training block 110 and the shell 100 can be slidably connected inside the shell 100. Specifically, the bottom side of the cavity is provided with a mounting groove, the bottom side of the training block 110 is provided with a sliding block 111, the sliding block 111 is slidably connected in the mounting groove, the elastic member 120 is a spring, and the two ends of the elastic member 120 are respectively abutted between the rear side of the sliding block 111 and the rear side wall of the mounting groove. The training block 110 is slidably connected to the mounting groove through the sliding block 111, thereby achieving sliding in the cavity in the front and rear directions. When the user drives the training block 110 to move backward by the toes, the sliding block 111 will slide backward in the mounting groove, which will compress the spring located between the rear side of the sliding block 111 and the rear side wall of the mounting groove. When the toes are relaxed, the elastic force of the spring can push the sliding block 111 forward, so that the training block 110 moves forward and resets, in preparation for the next training activity.

[0028] The sliding block 111 is slidingly connected in the mounting groove. There are various structural forms. For example, sliding rails are arranged on the two sides of the sliding block 111, and sliding grooves are arranged on the two side walls of the mounting groove. The two sliding rails are connected in the two sliding grooves respectively, so that the sliding connection of the sliding block 111 and the sliding groove is realized. In order to make the overall structure more compact, in the embodiment, the sliding column 130 is connected to the rear side of the sliding block 111. The sliding column 130 penetrates through the rear side of the mounting groove and is slidingly connected in the shell 100. The elastic member 120 is sleeved outside the sliding column 130. In actual application, a sliding channel that is in communication with the mounting groove is formed in the shell 100. The sliding column 130 penetrates out of the mounting groove and is connected in the sliding channel. The sliding block 111 is slidingly connected in the shell 100 through the sliding column 130 on the rear side thereof penetrating through the rear side of the mounting groove, so that the sliding connection in the mounting groove is realized. Since the elastic member 120 is a spring, when the spring is sleeved outside the sliding column 130, the problem that the spring is easily twisted when the pressure on the spring is too large can be effectively avoided, and the stability of the spring connection and use is improved.

[0029] In actual application, in order to facilitate the user's toes to clamp the training block 110 when exerting force, a plurality of recesses can be arranged on the training block 110 to facilitate the positioning of the toes. The user's toes can better exert force. Since the foot shapes of different users are not the same, in order to better select the training block 110 of a corresponding size and shape for different users, in the embodiment, the training block 110 and the sliding block 111 are detachably connected. For example, the training block 110 can be connected on the sliding block 111 through buckling or threaded connection. Before use, different specifications and sizes of the training block 110 can be selected according to the needs of different users to better adapt to the use needs of the users. After use, the training block 110 can be detached from the sliding block 111, so that cleaning and maintenance can be conveniently performed, and the overall use flexibility is higher.

[0030] In some embodiments, the bottom side of the cavity is arranged at a position beside the training block 110. The displacement of the training block 110 during forward and backward movement can be conveniently detected through the scale 140, so that the training intensity during training can be intuitively judged, and the use experience is improved.

[0031] There are various structural forms for the way that the heel support 200 can slide relative to the shell 100 and be positioned. For example, the heel support 200 is connected to the shell 100 through the sliding rail and sliding groove. A bolt is arranged on the heel support 200. When the heel support 200 needs to be positioned, the end of the bolt is pressed against the shell 100, so that the relative positioning between the heel support 200 and the shell 100 is realized. In order to further improve the convenience of adjusting and positioning the heel support 200, in the embodiment, as shown in Figure 3As shown, the bottom side of the heel support 200 is formed with a connecting plate 210, which is slidingly connected with the shell 100 in the front-rear direction, and an adjusting screw 220 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 210, and the adjusting screw 220 is threadedly connected in the shell 100. In actual application, a threaded channel extending in the front-rear direction is formed in the shell 100, and the adjusting screw 220 is connected in the threaded channel. When it is necessary to adjust the front-rear position of the heel support 200, the adjusting screw 220 can be rotated in the forward direction or the reverse direction. Since the adjusting screw 220 is threadedly connected in the shell 100, and the connecting plate 210 is slidingly connected with the shell 100, the heel support 200 can be driven to slide forward or backward with the rotation of the adjusting screw 220. When the heel support 200 slides forward, the space between the heel support 200 and the shell 100 becomes smaller to adapt to a smaller foot, and when the heel support 200 slides backward, the space between the heel support 200 and the shell 100 becomes larger to adapt to a larger foot.

[0032] As a specific sliding connection between the connecting plate 210 and the shell 100, a guide rod 230 is connected to the front side of the connecting plate 210, a guide groove is arranged on the rear side of the shell 100, and the guide rod 230 is connected in the guide groove. The connecting plate 210 is slidingly connected with the shell 100 through the cooperation between the guide rod 230 and the guide groove.

[0033] In the heel support 200, a space is mainly formed to communicate with the cavity, so as to surround the heel position and facilitate the force exerted by the heel. In order to further improve the comfort during use, in this embodiment, the shape of the inner side wall of the heel support 200 is an arc shape protruding backward. The arc-shaped heel support 200 can better adapt to the shape of the rear side of the human heel, thereby better providing wrapping and support for the heel support 200. During use, the heel abuts against the inner side wall of the heel support 200, thereby providing support for the foot and improving the use experience.

[0034] Further, the inner side wall of the heel support 200 is provided with a buffer pad 240, which can be made of silica gel or cloth. During use, the heel abuts against the inner side of the heel support 200 through the buffer pad 240, which can avoid direct rigid contact between the heel position and the heel support 200, especially after long-term use, which can reduce the wear of the heel and improve the use experience.

[0035] In some embodiments, an anti-skid pad 300 is connected to the bottom side of the shell 100. The shell 100 is placed on the ground through the anti-skid pad 300, which can increase the friction with the ground, and the whole is not easy to slip on the ground during use, thereby further improving the use experience.

[0036] The preferred embodiments of the present application are specifically described above, but the present application is not limited to the embodiments, and those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or replacements without departing from the spirit of the present application. The equivalent modifications or replacements are all included in the scope defined by the claims of the present application.
