A punching bag is a large bag, usually coated with thick leather or cloth and filled with sand or other materials. Fighters can improve their strength and technique by punching in, kicking at or using various techniques on the punching bag.

[0013] The benefits of punching bags in fighting are as follows: Strength improvement: Punching bags are a great means for fighters to enhance their punching, kicking and other techniques. Hitting the punching bag helps fighters strengthen their muscles and gain strength.

[0014] • Improvement of Technique: The punching bag can also be used to improve fighters' techniques. Hitting the punching bag allows fighters to improve their form, learn correct striking techniques and become more effective in the fight.

[0017] Punching bags are an important tool that fighters can use in their training. Fighters can improve their strength, technique and fighting skills by training with a punching bag.

[0018] Since the punching bag of prior art has a plain surface, the athlete has to envision his / her opponent’s face on the punching bag when he / she practises the hook and uppercut. There is no area on the punching bag where the athlete could physically practice these strikes. In a standard punching bag, identification of the opponent and build-up of reflexes may not prove to be as good since it is merely based on imagination. This is especially difficult for amateur athletes. Amateur athletes also get bored more easily when training with a plain punching bag and their concentration may be much lower with such a punching bag. Moreover, in plain punching bags, when the punching bag is hit, the punching bag moves back and forth left and right and can rotate around itself. In the meanwhile it is difficult to trace the same spot on the punching bag and hit uppercuts or hooks there, that is, to keep track of the same area of the punching bag. As a result, the need to eliminate the shortcomings and disadvantages of the existing and currently used embodiments and applications entails an improvement in the relevant technical field necessary.

[0019] DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0020] The present invention relates to an auxiliary apparatus to be used in the field of sports by fighters engaged in martial arts such as Taekwondo, Muaythai, Kickboxing, Boxing etc., which is developed to be used both individually and as a team during training, as well as exercise and is fastened to the punching bag, in order to eliminate the above-mentioned disadvantages and to bring new advantages to the relevant technical field.

[0021] Athletes need this apparatus to identify the opponent and improve their reflexes.

[0022] The invention makes athletes' training more efficient, in that it is fastened to a punching bag. The athlete will be able to identify the opponent's facial area by means of the auxiliary equipment in the form of a semi-human face fastened to the punching bag and will easily be able to perform exercises such as hooks or uppercuts. Moreover, the athlete can be better prepared for a true match since he / she can easily keep track of the face area as the punching bag moves back and forth left and right or rotates around itself when the semi-human face thereon is punched. He / she can continuously exercise on the facial area and physically perform this exercise without the need for imagination to identify his / her opponent. Therefore the reflexes of the athlete will improve better.

[0023] The subject of the invention is elastic and does not wear out easily. Therefore, it offers athletes a long-lasting service life.

[0024] The inventional auxiliary appratus to be used by the fighters can be manufactured in various sizes and in various dimensions, in larger and smaller scales. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0025] In this detailed description, the preferred alternatives of the inventional auxiliary equipment embodiment to be used by the fighters are described solely for the purpose of a better understanding of the subject matter and without any limiting effect.

[0026] The invention is an auxiliary appratus intended for use by fighters, comprising a semi-human face, a fastening belt, a fastening apparatus, a Velcro band.

[0027] Semi-human face is an apparatus representing the face part that appears when looking at the human face frontally from the opposite side. This semi-human face will be used to serve as a shock absorber against kicks and punches when affixed to a punching bag. This apparatus can be made of hard rubber material, hard sponge or hard plastic. At least one opening each is found respectively on the right and left side of the semi-human face and the respective fixtures are realised through these openings.

[0028] Fastening belt is used to fasten the semi-human face to the punching bag, to ensure that the product clings on the punching bag so as to be prevented from falling down. It's the belt that is wound around the punching bag.

[0029] The fastening apparatus is the apparatus for fixing the fastening belt to the semihuman face. This fastening apparatus is screw-connected to semi-human face preferably on the laretal sides. This fastening appparatus is provided on the inside of the semi-human face to prevent damage to the athlete's hand. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, this fastening apparatus can be attached to the face area using methods such as hooks, snaps, or adhesives instead of screws.

[0030] Velcro band is the part that allows the fastening belt to be bound from behind the punching bag. Owing to this, the auxiliary apparatus will not fall from the back of the punching bag. In this way the rear part of the punching bag is also attached and fixed with velcro band. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, a belt buckle can also be used instead of velcro band.
