Abstract
[Purpose] This time, we developed a muscle strengthening training device targeting frail people with less than ankle floor flexor strength MMT3. Therefore, the purpose of this time is to report about the structure and usage of this practicing instrument, the expected exercise effect etc. [Structure of this practicing instrument] It was structured to add an assisting force on the heel. A compression coil spring was installed at the heel portion between the base plate and the sole plate to make a mechanism for assisting the fist on the heel portion. The toe portion and the sole portion were separated and joined by a hinge to ensure mobility. [How to use this device] The user places his / her toes on the toes board and places his or her feet on the foot sole plate in a standing posture. When there is anxiety about the standing posture, assistance such as handrails etc is used with both hands. While trying on the tiptoe, try to fist the heel of both sides.[Expected effect] This instrument is a practicing device devised as a tiptoe excitement promoting device for frail people less than Lower leg triceps MMT 3. It is expected that the extension force of the compression coil spring installed under the heel part will the facilitate effect of achieving tiptoe standing motion.
