In the drive mechanism 15, the rotation speed ratio between the first output unit 13 and the second output unit 14 is not particularly limited, but an example is 1: 4. Other rotation speed ratios such as 1: 2 are also conceivable.
[Mode of operation]
The operation mode of the seating type balance exercise apparatus 1 having the above-described configuration is as follows.
The user M first sits in such a posture as to straddle the seat 3 and turns on the start switch using the operation panel unit 9.

  Then, with the drive of the drive mechanism 15, the first output unit 13 (first output shaft 80) rotates the worm wheel via the worm gear, and the first drive shaft 28 rotates. The rotation of the first drive shaft 28 is transmitted from the first drive gear 31 to the first gear 32, and accordingly, the first cam member 33 and the cylindrical cam surface 20A attached to the first rotation shaft 20 rotate, One boss portion 21 tries to rotate in the same direction. However, since the ball portion 39 provided at the lower end portion of the first boss portion 21 is fitted to the ball receiving portion 41 provided at the front end portion of the crankshaft 40 so as to be pivotable, the accompanying rotation is restricted. The

The cylindrical cam surface 20A formed on the first cam member 33 is inclined with respect to the first rotation shaft 20, and the ball receiving portion 41 into which the ball portion 39 is fitted is movable in the left-right direction. As the first rotating shaft 20 rotates, the first boss portion 21 moves left and right. In addition, as the inclined cylindrical cam surface 20A rotates, when the front part of the first boss part 21 is shaken to the left, the upper surface of the first boss part 21 is lowered to the left, and the front part is shaken to the right. When it is done, it will begin to “swell like a wave”, with its upper surface descending to the right.
This movement is transmitted to the seat plate 37 and the seat 3 attached to the upper part of the first boss portion 21. As a result, the seat 3 reciprocates in the left-right direction, and the front portion of the seat 3 is leftward. When the head 3 is swung to the right, the upper surface is moved downward to the left, and when the front portion of the seat 3 is swung to the right, the upper surface is moved to the right.

On the other hand, as the drive mechanism 15 is driven, the second output shaft 14 (second output shaft 81) rotates the worm wheel via the worm gear, whereby the second drive shaft 59 rotates. The rotation of the second drive shaft 59 is transmitted from the second drive gear 60 to the second gear 56 via the intermediate gear 61, and accordingly, the second cam member 49 attached to the second rotation shaft 45 rotates eccentrically.
Then, the second boss portion 43 fitted to the second cam member 49 and the crankshaft 40 connected to the front portion of the second boss portion 43 reciprocate in the front-rear direction. The first boss portion 21 is repeatedly rotated around the axis of the first rotating shaft 20 through a ball receiving portion 41 provided in the portion and a ball portion 39 (a universal joint portion 42) fitted therein.

Such repeated rotation is transmitted to the seat plate 37 and the seat 3 attached to the upper part of the first boss portion 21, and the seat 3 swings back and forth about the substantially center in the front-rear direction of the seat 3.
In particular, in the case of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8A, when the second cam member 49 protrudes rearward, the steady pin 38 attached to the lower end portion of the first boss portion 21. The length of the crankshaft 40 is determined so that the ball portion 39 is at the lowermost portion with the ball facing downward. Moreover, the seat part is attached to the upper part of the first boss part 21 material at such a position with a forward inclination angle α.

As shown in FIG. 8B, when the second rotating shaft 45 rotates and the second cam member 49 protrudes upward, the crankshaft 40 moves forward, and accordingly, the first boss portion 21 is moved. Is rotated clockwise around the first rotation axis 20, so that the seat 3 is substantially horizontal.
Further, when the second rotating shaft 45 rotates and the second cam member 49 protrudes forward as shown in FIG. 8C, the steady pin 38 attached to the first boss portion 21 is in the forefront. Accordingly, the first boss portion 21 further rotates clockwise, and the seat 3 tilts backward at an inclination angle β.

As the second rotary shaft 45 rotates, the seat 3 sequentially goes through the states of FIGS. 8A to 8C so that the seat 3 swings back and forth with α forward and β backward. Become. Note that the front inclination angle α and the rear inclination angle β of the seat portion may be the same value or different.
Such back-and-forth swinging and undulation swinging in the left-right direction are simultaneously transmitted to the seat 3, and the seat 3 moves in a complicated manner. Therefore, the user M seated in the seat 3 becomes out of balance, can strengthen the muscles of each part of the body and strengthen the sense of balance, and thus promotes health such as diet. It will be possible.

In the balance exercise device 1 according to the present invention, the drive mechanism 15 has a first output unit 13 for driving the swaying rocking mechanism 11 and a second output unit 14 for driving the front-back rocking mechanism 12. Therefore, according to the present invention, an unnecessary power transmission mechanism can be omitted, made compact, and the structure can be simplified.
That is, for example, it has only one output part like a single-axis motor, and the output is distributed to the two directions from this one output part via a power transmission mechanism such as a gear mechanism, and then the sway swing mechanism and the forward / backward swing mechanism are distributed. Assume a device configuration in which an output is transmitted to a moving mechanism. When this hypothetical device is compared with the present invention, since one drive mechanism 15 has the first and second output sections 13 and 14 in the present invention, each of the first and second output sections 13 is provided. , 14 can transmit power directly, and it is understood that an unnecessary power transmission mechanism is unnecessary.

As a result, according to the present invention, as described above, the unnecessary power transmission mechanism can be omitted, made compact, and the structure can be simplified. Not only can the transmission loss be reduced and the power transmission efficiency can be improved. Various advantages such as reduction or elimination of the problem and easy maintenance can be obtained.
The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment.
