Abstract
A strike exerciser structure includes: a first rubber pad, defined with a swing space; a second rubber pad, in movable connection with one side of the first rubber pad and positioned inside the swing space, the second rubber pad including a swing portion and connection portion, the connection portion in connection with the first rubber pad, and the swing portion extended from one side of the connection portion; a rod, one end thereof in connection with the swing portion; and a placement portion, configured on one end of the rod away from the swing portion, allowing a placement of a ball. Whereby, if a user uses a bat to hit the rod or drive the rod to move with a swing force upon a strike exercise, the swing portion will be oscillated with the connection portion as a fulcrum and spring back to its original position, thereby increasing service life.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
(11) Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, a baseball exerciser structure, in a first preferred embodiment, includers a first rubber pad 1, second rubber pad 2, rod 3 and placement portion 4, where the second rubber pad 2 is in movable connection with the first rubber pad 1, and the second rubber pad 2 includes a swing portion 21 and connection portion 22, where the connection portion 22 is stuck to the first rubber pad 1, and the swing portion 21 is formed by extending from one side of the connection portion 22; the first rubber pad 1 is formed with a swing space 12 inside which the second rubber pad 2 is positioned, where the second rubber pad 2 is stuck to the first rubber pad 1 by rubber adhesive with hot pressing, thereby sticking them more stably. Furthermore, one end of the rod 3 is in connection with the upper surface of the swing portion 21, and the placement portion 4 is configured on one end of the rod 3 away from the swing portion 21.
(12) With the above description, the structure of the present invention can be clearly understood. According to the corresponding cooperation of this structure, the service life and use convenience can be improved by the second rubber pad 2 having swing effect, and the detailed explanation will be described in the following.
(13) Referring to FIGS. 1 to 5, a user can place a ball 5 on the placement portion 4 after the above components are assembled, where the placement portion 4 is a groove capable of the placement of the ball 5, but the present invention is not so limited. Thereafter, a bat can then be used to swing the ball 5 so as to achieve a strike exercise effect. When a user swings the ball 5, the rod 3 will be driven to incline in a swinging direction if the rod 3 is carelessly hit or a swinging force is overlarge, and the force at this time will be transmitted to the second rubber pad 2. Meanwhile, the swing portion 21 will be flipped off the swing space 12 and will oscillate together with the rod 3 with the connection portion 22 as a fulcrum, thereby absorbing and digesting the swinging force and using the elasticity of the second rubber pad 2 itself to bring the swing portion 21 back to its original position. At this time, the swing portion 21 will also drive the rod 3 back to its original position, allowing the user to continue to place the ball 5 on the placement portion 4 for exercise so as to improve the use convenience. In addition, since the overall center of gravity of the first rubber pad 1 will be increased, allowing the entirety to be more stable and not be overturned because of the force of the user's strike so that the damage chance due to the overturn can be reduced. Furthermore, the first rubber pad 1 and second rubber pad 2 are made of rubber which is more compressible and elastic than plastics, which can further reduce the damage chance so as to increase the service life.
(14) Referring to FIGS. 6 to 8, a second preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown. The present embodiment is almost similar to the above embodiment except a groove portion 23a is configured between a swing portion 21a and connection portion 22a in the present embodiment; the existence of the groove portion 23a allows a rod 3a being subject to a strike force to drive the swing portion 21a to swing to be easier and smoother. Whereby, the force is absorbed more completely and the chance of the transmission of the force to a first rubber pad 1a is reduced.
(15) Furthermore, in the present embodiment, an adjusting element 31a is configured on the rod 3a, using the engagement of the rod components to allow the telescopic movement between the rod components to adjust the length of the rod 3a, and a sleeve is used to lock the rod components together. But, since this is a prior art, the detailed description is omitted here, and the present invention is not so limited. Whereby, the length of the rod 3a can be adjusted according to user's requirements.
(16) Furthermore, referring to FIG. 9, a third preferred embodiment is shown. The present embodiment is almost similar to the above embodiments except a second rubber pad 2b is integrated with a first rubber pad 1b such that a user may directly cut the second rubber pad 2b and a swing space 12b out of the first rubber pad 1b, thereby increasing manufacturing convenience and quickness, and a connection portion is defined between the first rubber pad 1b and second rubber pad 2b.
(17) Referring to FIG. 10, a fourth preferred embodiment is shown. The present embodiment is almost similar to the above embodiments except a swing space 12c will be positioned on the center of the first rubber pad 1c, and a second rubber pad 2c will be positioned inside the swing space 12c in the present invention so that the first rubber pad 1c will surround the second rubber pad 2c, where the shapes of the first rubber pad 1c and second rubber pad 2c are not limited. Furthermore, a thickened portion 13c is formed on the first rubber pad 1c, thereby strengthening the center of gravity of the first rubber pad 1c, capable of reducing the overturn chance of the first rubber pad 1c and therefore the damage chance of the entirety.
(18) Therefore, the strike exerciser structure of the present invention has the following advantages over the prior arts: 1. the swing effect of the swing portion 21 is used to absorb the strike force, allowing the entirety not to be overturned so that the damage chance can be reduced to extend the service life. 2. The rod 3 can be returned to its original position through the spring-back effect of the swing portion 21, allowing a user to do the uninterrupted exercise to improve the use convenience. 3. The swing space 12 allows the oscillation of the swing portion 21 to be smoother so as to reduce the transmission chance of the strike force to the first rubber pad 1, thereby preventing the first rubber pad 1 to be overturned.
