Definitions
- the present invention relates to a boxing trainer
- the conventional boxing trainers belong to "in-place" devices (i.e. punching bag) for boxing training.
- the punching bag is suspended so that it swings to-and-fro by being punched with fists of operators. Therefore, the operator has to watch its swinging position and speed to give the next punching so as to achieve a certain training effect.
- both boxers duly dodge in accordance with the punching position and timing of the opponent.
- the attacking side has to grasp the attack opportunity unlike the easy practice on the punching bag.
- the interactive boxing trainer comprises a driving unit; a main body having a longitudinal slide rail, a lateral slide rail and a punched body, said punched body being driven by said driving unit and movable on said longitudinal slide rail and said lateral slide rail; a control unit being in connection with a plurality of signal receivers provided at the upper and lower part of said main body so as to receive signals sent by signal transmitters on boxing gloves; and a pair of boxing gloves with a respective signal transmitter; so that the position, speed and travelling path of said boxing gloves can be detected and processed by said control unit which then commands said driving unit to move said punched body away from said approaching punching glove.
- the instant shift of the automatic driving unit will keep the punched body away from the approaching boxing gloves. Therefore, the boxer learns special skills (rapid movement of the feet, rapid punching of the fists, continuous punching, deceiving punching or punching according to the movement direction of the punched body) before or during punching so as to exactly strike the punched body.
- the trainee won't be injured by counterattack, and he can make practice without the time restriction.
- the interactive boxing trainer includes a main body 10, a driving unit 20, a control unit 30 and a pair of boxing gloves 40 with a respective signal transmitter 42.
- the main body 10 contains a longitudinal slide rail 12, a lateral slide rail 14 and a punched body 16.
- the punched body 16 is driven by the driving unit 20 and movable on the longitudinal slide rail 12 and the lateral slide rail 14.
- the control unit 30 is in connection with a plurality of signal receivers 32 provided at the upper and lower part of the main body 10 so as to receive signals sent by the signal transmitters 42 on the boxing gloves 40. Therefore, the position, speed and travelling path of the boxing gloves 40 can be detected and processed by the control unit 30 which then commands the driving unit 20 to move the punched body 16 away from the approaching punching glove 40.
- both signal transmitters 42 give out different frequency signals, while the relative distance between respective boxing gloves 40 and the punched body 16 can be reckoned by the signal receivers 32 in accordance with the different frequency. Thereafter, the control unit 30 gives command to the driving unit 20 to proceed with further proper reaction.
- pairwise signal receivers 32 can be arranged to detect different signals given out by the signal transmitters 42 of both boxing gloves 40, respectively, so as to fulfil the aforementioned function. This technique belongs to the prior art so that no further descriptions thereto are given hereinafter.
- control unit 30 operates the driving unit 20 and in which direction and how much the punched body 16 are moved to keep away from the boxing gloves 40 belong to the programming field so that no further descriptions thereto are given hereinafter.
- control unit 30 of the present invention makes use of at least two pairs of signal receivers 32 at the top and bottom and both signal transmitters 42 to exactly measure the position, the speed and the travelling path. Accordingly, dual positioning method is used for a more accurate processing.
- the driving unit 20 laterally (X-axis) and longitudinally (Y-axis) shift the punched body 16 to simulate the dodge movement of the opponent in the boxing match.
- the punched body 16 can be arranged to move forward and backward (Z-axis) when required.
Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a boxing trainer
- The conventional boxing trainers belong to "in-place" devices (i.e. punching bag) for boxing training. The punching bag is suspended so that it swings to-and-fro by being punched with fists of operators. Therefore, the operator has to watch its swinging position and speed to give the next punching so as to achieve a certain training effect. In practice of the basic boxing defence, both boxers duly dodge in accordance with the punching position and timing of the opponent. However, the attacking side has to grasp the attack opportunity unlike the easy practice on the punching bag.
- In order to carry out "interactive practice" to command the punching timing and skills, all boxers have to employ one of their calibre to simulate the boxing match.
- In consideration of many objective factors such as expenses, time, possible injuries, it's rare for common boxers to employ the so-called "interactive practice". Particularly, the beginners can hardly command the basic punching timing and boxing skills without the interactive practice, let alone imagine the real situation in the boxing match beforehand.
- It is a primary object of the present invention to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks and to provide an interactive boxing trainer which utilises the modern technique of automatic detection and automatic control for command of the position, the speed and the travelling path of the boxing gloves.
- According to the invention, the interactive boxing trainer comprises a driving unit; a main body having a longitudinal slide rail, a lateral slide rail and a punched body, said punched body being driven by said driving unit and movable on said longitudinal slide rail and said lateral slide rail; a control unit being in connection with a plurality of signal receivers provided at the upper and lower part of said main body so as to receive signals sent by signal transmitters on boxing gloves; and a pair of boxing gloves with a respective signal transmitter; so that the position, speed and travelling path of said boxing gloves can be detected and processed by said control unit which then commands said driving unit to move said punched body away from said approaching punching glove.
- Advantageously, the instant shift of the automatic driving unit will keep the punched body away from the approaching boxing gloves. Therefore, the boxer learns special skills (rapid movement of the feet, rapid punching of the fists, continuous punching, deceiving punching or punching according to the movement direction of the punched body) before or during punching so as to exactly strike the punched body.
- Compared to a conventional boxing training, the punching difficulty is increased and the punching skills are achieved.
- In contrast to the interactive practice, the trainee won't be injured by counterattack, and he can make practice without the time restriction.
- The accomplishment of this and other objects of the invention will become apparent from the following description and its accompanying drawings of which:
- FIG. 1 is a side view of a preferred embodiment of the present invention; and
- FIG. 2 is a front view of the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
-
- First of all, referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, a preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown. From the figures, the interactive boxing trainer includes a
main body 10, adriving unit 20, acontrol unit 30 and a pair ofboxing gloves 40 with arespective signal transmitter 42. Themain body 10 contains alongitudinal slide rail 12, alateral slide rail 14 and a punchedbody 16. The punchedbody 16 is driven by thedriving unit 20 and movable on thelongitudinal slide rail 12 and thelateral slide rail 14. Moreover, thecontrol unit 30 is in connection with a plurality ofsignal receivers 32 provided at the upper and lower part of themain body 10 so as to receive signals sent by thesignal transmitters 42 on theboxing gloves 40. Therefore, the position, speed and travelling path of theboxing gloves 40 can be detected and processed by thecontrol unit 30 which then commands thedriving unit 20 to move the punchedbody 16 away from the approachingpunching glove 40. - In order to effectively distinguish the right and
left boxing gloves 40, bothsignal transmitters 42 give out different frequency signals, while the relative distance betweenrespective boxing gloves 40 and the punchedbody 16 can be reckoned by thesignal receivers 32 in accordance with the different frequency. Thereafter, thecontrol unit 30 gives command to thedriving unit 20 to proceed with further proper reaction. Besides,pairwise signal receivers 32 can be arranged to detect different signals given out by thesignal transmitters 42 of bothboxing gloves 40, respectively, so as to fulfil the aforementioned function. This technique belongs to the prior art so that no further descriptions thereto are given hereinafter. - Furthermore, how the
control unit 30 operates thedriving unit 20 and in which direction and how much the punchedbody 16 are moved to keep away from theboxing gloves 40 belong to the programming field so that no further descriptions thereto are given hereinafter. - In brief, the
control unit 30 of the present invention makes use of at least two pairs ofsignal receivers 32 at the top and bottom and bothsignal transmitters 42 to exactly measure the position, the speed and the travelling path. Accordingly, dual positioning method is used for a more accurate processing. Besides, thedriving unit 20 laterally (X-axis) and longitudinally (Y-axis) shift the punchedbody 16 to simulate the dodge movement of the opponent in the boxing match. Certainly, the punchedbody 16 can be arranged to move forward and backward (Z-axis) when required.
