The training device includes: a shaft; a joint having a diameter larger than that of the shaft and disposed at one end portion of the shaft; a joint support contacting the joint and elastically supporting the joint; and a shaft support elastically supporting an outer side of the shaft at the one end portion of the shaft. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A training device comprising: a shaft; a joint having a diameter larger than that of one end portion of the shaft and disposed at a first end of the one end portion of the shaft; a joint support contacting the joint and elastically supporting the joint; a shaft support elastically supporting an outer side of the shaft at the one end portion of the shaft; and a case surrounding the one end portion of the shaft, wherein when the shaft is pulled so that the joint is spaced apart from the joint support, the shaft support is widened and the joint passes through the shaft support and thereafter, the joint is supported by the shaft support, and wherein the joint support includes a plurality of support plates that are separate from each other, each of the support plates has a joint contact portion directly contacting the joint and a rear mounting portion that is extended from the joint contact portion and coupled to the case. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The training device of claim 1, wherein: the joint has a cross section having a circular, oval, or a polygonal shape, the joint having a three-dimensional shape including including an outer surface which is convex or concave and the joint support has a joint contact portion having a concave or convex shape corresponding to a part of the outer surface of the joint and having elasticity. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The training device of claim 1, wherein: the shaft support includes a first contact portion elastically supporting the outer side of the one end portion of the shaft and a second contact portion disposed spaced apart from the first contact portion toward an opposite side of the one end portion of the shaft to elastically support the outer side of the shaft, and the first contact portion and the second contact portion are arranged to form mirror image symmetry. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The training device of claim 3, wherein: when the shaft and the joint are pulled in a direction away from the joint support, the first contact portion is widened and the joint thus moves between the first contact portion and the second contact portion, and the shaft is supported by the second contact portion. ### Claim 5 (depends on 3) The training device of claim 3, wherein the case supports the first and second contact portions. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The training device of claim 5, wherein: the case includes a front case accommodating the first and second contact portions and a rear case accommodating the joint support. ### Claim 7 (depends on 5) The training device of claim 5, wherein: each of the first and second contact portions includes a shaft slider slidably installed in the case to be movable toward the outer side of the shaft and a shaft elastic support elastically supporting the shaft slider with respect to the case. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The training device of claim 7, wherein: each of the first and second contact portions further includes an elastic portion coupled to an end of the shaft slider to elastically contact the outer side of the shaft. ### Claim 9 A training device comprising: a shaft; a joint having a diameter larger than that of one end portion of the shaft and disposed at a first end of the one end portion of the shaft; a joint support contacting the joint and elastically supporting the joint; and a shaft support elastically supporting an outer side of the shaft at the one end portion of the shaft, wherein the shaft support includes a first contact portion elastically supporting the outer side of the one end portion of the shaft and a second contact portion disposed spaced apart from the first contact portion toward an opposite side of the one end portion of the shaft to elastically support the outer side of the shaft, wherein the training device further includes a case supporting the first and second contact portions and surrounding the one end portion of the shaft, wherein each of the first and second contact portions includes a mounting portion supported by the case and an elastic portion which extends toward the outer side of the shaft from the mounting portion to elastically support the outer side of the shaft, and wherein the joint support includes a plurality of support plates that are separate from each other, each of the support plates has a joint contact portion directly contacting the joint and a rear mounting portion that is extended from the joint contact portion and coupled to the case. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The training device of claim 9, wherein: the elastic portions of the first and second contact portions face each other and extend toward the outer side of the shaft from the respective mounting portions.
