Abstract
A pair of endless belts of different lengths are intermittently and simultaneously advanced in sequential steps to present first and second indicia behind a viewing window. Each of the indicia on one belt identifies a movable part of a person's body and each of the indicia on the other belt identifies a movement to be performed. The indicia on each belt include a plurality of legends identifying each body part or movement, respectively, but arranged randomly in series on the belts. A selectively operable control serves to vary the time interval between sequential steps.
Claims5
Reaction training apparatus comprising:
- housing means defining a viewing station;
- a pair of indicia bearing display means movably mounted in said housing adjacent said viewing station, each of said display means having a plurality of indicia arranged in an endless series and each being movable to sequentially present successive indicia at said viewing station, the series on one of said display means having a number of indicia different from the number of indicia in the series on the other;
- each of the indicia on one of said display means identifying a movable part of a person's body, there being a plurality of indicia identifying each movable part with the indicia randomly arranged in said series;
- each of said indicia on said other display means identifying an exercise to be performed, there being a plurality of indicia indentifying each exercise with the indicia randomly arranged in the series, each body part and each exercise appearing more than once in their respective series;
- and
- drive means for intermittently moving both said display means simultaneously to intermittently and simultaneously present successive indicia of each series at said viewing station, said drive means being arranged to move said display means in discrete successive steps;
- and control means for selectively changing the time interval between successive steps.
