A baseball batter's glove or a golf glove (or a glove for any other swinging sport) that contains a audible indicator that produces a unique sound like a click when a bat, club or other sporting equipment is being held in the correct position for a power swing. In particular, a batter's glove for baseball that clicks when the batter holds the bat in the correct position for a power swing. A particular embodiment of the present invention is a glove with a small convex metal strip sewed onto the lower part of the thumb extending over the top of the thumb to the wrist. The strip can resemble a portion of a tape measure in some embodiments. This strip can be positioned so that it bends and clicks when the hands are in exactly the right position to indicate that the bat or club is correct for a maximum power swing. The strip can click a second time during the power stroke itself. The present invention is not limited to baseball and/or golf, but may be used with any sport that requires swinging such as tennis and other sports.

When decoupling is desired, the added weight plate is rotated with respect to the weight plate mass to bring the carried magnetic pole region into alignment with a magnetically non-attracting portion of the weight plate mass so that the added weight plate can be removed from the weight plate device without overcoming the magnetically-securing coupling force. In a variation of the method, the added weight plate is rotated to bring its carried magnetic pole into sufficient alignment with a pole of like polarity carried by the weight plate mass so that the added weight plate is magnetically repelled.

Принадлежит: DODGE INDUSTRIAL Co Ltd

A fin includes a blade and a foot pocket mounted on a front end of the blade. The blade includes a rubber layer having two opposite sides, and two carbon fiber units mounted on the two opposite sides of the rubber layer respectively. The rubber layer is provided between the two carbon fiber units so as to enhance the elastic coefficient of the blade so that the blade has greater elasticity and flexibility. Thus, when the blade is worn by a user who is swimming or diving in the water, the blade can be flexed and deflected to respond to the moving direction of the water current so as to decrease the drag applied on the blade so that the blade is moved in the water easily, thereby greatly saving the user's energy.

A swing training device. A plurality of legs is pivotally connected to a base. A bottom support tube is rigidly connected to the base. A height adjustment tube is inserted into the bottom support tube. The height of the height adjustment tube is controlled by a height adjustment controller. A lower band holder is rigidly connected to the upper end of the height adjustment tube. A band tube is positioned between the lower band holder at its lower end and an upper band holder at its upper end. A plurality of elastic bands are connected between the lower band holder and the upper band holder. A pivot piece is rigidly connected to the upper band holder. A rotation stick having a hittable ball is pivotally connected to the pivot piece. The bottom support tube, the height adjustment tube and the band tube form a rotation axis. When a user hits the ball then the ball and the rotation stick rotate about the rotation axis in an initial rotation direction causing the elastic bands to stretch and wrap around the band tube. The elastic bands then act as a spring causing the ball and rotation stick to rotate back in an opposite direction to simulate a pitch to the user so that the user can hit again. For easy transport and storage, the rotation stick pivots downward and the legs pivot upwards so that they are all parallel with the rotation axis.

Swing play systems and methods of play

Принадлежит: Individual

A play swing system includes a safety harness attached to each seat, as well as other features for interactive and competitive throwing and tossing games. The safety harness may incorporates various games features, and thus encourage use in activities that require at least one free hand, or otherwise increase the risk of slippage and falling from the play swing seat. Various embodiments accommodate as well as challenge the spatial perception, dexterity and reflexes of players of different ages. For examples, younger players might compete by throwing objects at a fixed target mounted on the ground. In other embodiments, the target is moving in synchronization with the oscillatory motion of the adjacent players swing by a physical coupling or attachment. Interactive play is encouraged at the higher skill levels by configuring the targets associated with adjacent seats to face each other. In this embodiment, the players oscillate in opposite directions so that they are closest to the target when the relative velocity is highest. The objects of the associated games can be building a higher score, as well as soaking the other player(s) with water supplied by an external source and actuated by instantaneous or accumulated contact of a throwing object with a target.
