Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0022] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0023] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Example 1:

[0025] This embodiment provides a finger clip for swimming training, such as... Figures 1-5As shown, the device includes a finger clip body. The finger clip body includes a first limiting part 1, a second limiting part 2, and a connecting part 3. The first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 are spaced apart, and the connecting part 3 connects the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2. The connecting part 3 is located between two adjacent fingers of the user and is held by the two fingers. The first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 are respectively positioned on the front and back sides of the two adjacent fingers of the user. When the distance between the user's two fingers is less than the width of the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2, the finger clip can be easily fixed between the user's fingers through the limiting action of the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2, thereby improving the stability of the user's grip on the finger clip, preventing loosening and falling off, and also reducing the gripping force between the user's fingers.

[0026] When using the finger clip in this embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the user holds the connecting part 3 between two fingers, so that the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 are located on opposite sides of the two fingers, thereby ensuring that the trainee's fingers are in a closed position. The user can hold one of these finger clips between any two fingers other than the thumb, or hold two or three finger clips between different fingers.

[0027] This finger clip helps novice swimmers overcome the difficulty of closing their fingers, especially the challenge of straightening and splitting their fingers. The design specifically corrects finger splitting in beginner swimmers, strengthens muscle memory for finger closure, and helps establish a standard swimming stroke by requiring the swimmer to hold the clip between their fingers. This finger clip effectively addresses teaching difficulties in competitive swimming training, significantly shortens the technical instruction cycle, and allows athletes to master correct and effective techniques better and earlier.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, both the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 are elongated flat structures that can effectively block the fingers from both sides. The periphery of the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 is smooth. Specifically, the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 can be elliptical or rectangular with chamfered edges. The smooth periphery of the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 provides a good tactile feel and avoids scratching the fingers.

[0029] In one preferred embodiment, the connecting part 3 includes two connecting rods 31, which are respectively connected to the two ends of the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 in the length direction y. Figure 1 As shown, the connecting rod 31 is arranged along the height direction z of the interdigital clip body. The length direction of the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 is the length direction y of the interdigital clip body, and the width direction of the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 is the width direction x of the interdigital clip body.

[0030] Two connecting rods 31 are respectively connected to the two ends of the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 in the length direction y, so that the two ends of the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 are firmly connected, and the gap between the two connecting rods 31 is set so that it is more convenient to grip the two connecting rods 31 when the two fingers grip them.

[0031] Alternatively, the connecting part 3 can be a connecting rod or a plate-like structure connected between the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2.

[0032] In one preferred embodiment, the distance between the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 gradually increases from front to back. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the distance h1 between the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 at the front end of the finger clip body is less than the distance h2 between the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 at the rear end of the finger clip body.

[0033] In this embodiment, the distance between the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 conforms to the shape characteristics of the finger, that is, the front end of the finger is thinner and the back end is thicker, so that the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 can fit better on the front and back sides of the finger.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, at the connection between the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 and the connecting part 3, the width of the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 is greater than the width of the middle section of the connecting part 3, so as to better limit the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 on both sides of the finger. Two fingers are used to hold the connecting part 3 on the left and right sides, and are limited between the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 by the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, both ends of the connecting rod 31 are smoothly connected to the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2. The upper and lower ends of the connecting part 3 in the width direction x are also smoothly connected to the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2. This allows the fingers to better conform to the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 when gripping the connecting part 3, increasing comfort.

[0036] In one preferred embodiment, the first limiting part 1, the second limiting part 2, and the connecting part 3 are an integral structure. Preferably, the finger clip body is integrally molded from silicone material, which has good skin-friendliness, flexibility, comfort, high connection strength, and long service life.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the connecting rod 31 has a flat structure, and its width in the length direction y is greater than its width in the width direction x. Figure 2As shown, the width of the two ends of the connecting rod 31 connected to the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2 in the length direction y of the finger clamp body is greater than the width in the middle of the connecting rod 31, so that the connecting rod 31 is firmly connected to the first limiting part 1 and the second limiting part 2.

[0038] The finger clip in this embodiment can be designed in different sizes, including both a youth version and an adult version, so that the finger clip training aid is tailored to different age characteristics.

[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any modifications and improvements made by those skilled in the art without departing from the inventive concept of the present utility model should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
