Abstract

A rotary type punching exerciser is disclosed. The rotary type punching exerciser includes a punchball, a support arm to support the punchball, the support arm being adjustable in length in a direction in which one end of the support arm extends, to enable adjustment of a punching cycle of the punchball, a support bar to support the other end of the support arm such that the support arm is rotatable by 360 degrees, the support bar being adjustable in length in a vertical direction, to enable adjustment of a punching height of the punchball, and a pedestal to support the support bar. With the use of the rotary type punching exerciser, a user can anticipate a movement path of the punchball, which allows the user to easily successively punch the punchball.

Claims

1. A rotary type punching exerciser comprising:

a punchball;

a support arm to support the punchball, the support arm being adjustable in length in a direction in which one end of the support arm extends to enable adjustment of a punching cycle of the punchball;

a support bar to support the other end of the support arm such that the support arm is rotatable by 360 degrees, the support bar being adjustable in length in a vertical direction to enable adjustment of a punching height of the punchball;

a pedestal to support the support bar; and

an elastic support unit to elastically support the support arm in a direction in which the support bar extends,

wherein the elastic support unit includes;

support plates coupled to upper and lower positions of the support bar with the support arm interposed therebetween;

an elastic member interposed between each support plate and the other end of the support arm; and

a washer interposed between the elastic member and the support arm.

2. The exerciser according to claim 1,

wherein the other end of the support arm is provided with a rotation ring into which the support bar is inserted, and

wherein both ends of the support arm are separably coupled to the punchball and the rotation ring.

3. The exerciser according to claim 1, wherein the support arm is elastically flexible.

4. The exerciser according to claim 1, wherein the pedestal internally defines a receptacle in which a weight is accommodated.

5. The exerciser according to claim 1, further comprising a mounting member coupled to a lower surface of the pedestal,

wherein the mounting member includes a pair of Velcro straps interposed between the pedestal and the floor on which the rotary type punching exerciser is installed.

6. A rotary type punching exerciser comprising:

a punchball;

a support arm to support the punchball;

a support bar to support the support arm such that the support arm is rotatable by 360 degrees;

a pedestal to support the support bar; and

an elastic support unit to elastically support the support arm in a direction in which the support bar extends,

wherein the elastic support unit includes;

support plates coupled to upper and lower positions of the support bar with the support arm interposed therebetween;

an elastic member interposed between each support plate and one end of the support arm; and

a washer interposed between the elastic member and the support arm.

7. The exerciser according to claim 6, wherein the support arm is adjustable in length and in a direction in which the support arm extends to enable adjustment of a punching cycle of the punchball.

8. The exerciser according to claim 6, wherein the support bar is adjustable in length and in a vertical direction to enable adjustment of a punching height of the punchball.

9. A rotary type punching exerciser comprising:

a punchball;

a support arm to support the punchball;

a support bar to support the support arm such that the support arm is rotatable by 360 degrees;

a pedestal to support the support bar;

an adjustor to adjust a rotation cycle of the support arm about the support bar to enable adjustment of a punching cycle of the punchball; and

an elastic support unit to elastically support the support arm in a direction in which the support bar extends,

wherein the elastic support unit includes;

support plates coupled to upper and lower positions of the support bar with the support arm interposed therebetween;

an elastic member interposed between each support plate and one end of the support arm; and

a washer interposed between the elastic member and the support arm.

10. The exerciser according to claim 9,

wherein the end of the support arm is provided with a rotation ring, into which the support bar is inserted, and

wherein the adjustor includes an adjusting screw fastened to the support bar so as to press the support plate toward the rotation ring.

11. The exerciser according to claim 10, wherein the support arm is adjustable in length and in a direction in which one end of the support arm extends to enable adjustment of a punching cycle of the punchball.

12. The exerciser according to claim 11, wherein the support bar is adjustable in length and in a vertical direction to enable adjustment of a punching height of the punchball.
