DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a treadle exercise device capable of bending a toe in conjunction with a treadle rotating forward and backward when sitting on a chair and bending an ankle.

[0002]

[Prior Art] I have applied for a patent for a sports equipment that stands on two treads, each bending and stretching the ankle.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An ankle,
Exercise equipment that allows simultaneous flexion and extension of toes

[0004]

The foot is pressed against the tread with the elastic band 10 and the magic tape 11. Figure-8. As shown in the operation diagram-1
The convex portion 4 of the rear of the tread 3-1 supports the arch and serves as a fulcrum of the movement, and the convex portion 5 of the front 3-2 of the tread presses the inner joint portion of the toe. The entire foot is lifted and pressed down on the tread plate with the elastic band 10 and the magic tape 11. When the ankle is extended (FIG. 8), the toes are bent at a preset structural angle when the hinge 6 that connects the rear part 3-1 and the front part 3-2 is opened. Next, when the ankle is bent and the Achilles key is extended (FIG. 9), the hinges 6 close and return to flat after the tread 3-1 and before the tread 3-2, so that the toes extend.

[0005]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION When an exercise tool is placed on the floor, seated on a chair or the like, placed on a tread plate one foot at a time, and a rubber band is used to press the portion from the base of the toe to the instep, the bending of the ankle is linked. The toes also bend and stretch.

[0006]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION Using the exercise equipment of the present invention, the user can sit down on a chair, lean on the back, and use an easy posture to ankle and toes.
When you move the part that does not exercise much, you can see that the muscles such as calf, shin, knee, thigh and hip are unexpectedly stimulated. In addition, the treatment points inside the toes and the compression of the arch promote blood circulation throughout the body. With the aging society progressing, we devised something that would allow elderly people to move their ankles, toes, and legs to exercise less and maintain physical strength.
