A baseball training device for use in improving batting skills, the device comprising an elongated member of at least a length to extend about the torso of a wearer and form a loop, and a target member slidably secured to the elongated member and adapted to engage an upper arm of a wearer upon proper movement of the arm of the wearer during a batting swing.

Device for baseball batters

A baseball training device for use in improving batting skills, particularly triggering skills while batting. The device comprises an elongated member of at least a length to extend about the torso of a wearer and form a loop, and a jacket conformable to the upper torso of a wearer and slidably secured to the elongated member, the jacket and the elongated member each including indicia to indicate a triggering movement by the wearer.

Triggering device for batters

A baseball training device for use in improving batting skills, particularly bat directing skills while batting, the device comprising an elongated member of at least a length to extend about the wrist of a wearer and forming a loop, and a bat knob receiving member depending from the elongated member, the bat knob receiving member having a generally circular opening adapted to receive the knob of a baseball bat when the wearer of the training device swings the baseball bat.

Directing device for batters

The invention disclosed includes a head gear to be worn when it is desirable to have an indication of the wearer's head motion or position. The head gear may be incorporated into an existing article of head wear. The incorporation may be permanent, or the head gear may be alternatively attached to various articles of head wear. Integral with the head gear are motion and/or position sensing devices to indicate the motion or position of the wearer's head. The data from the sensors may be fed into a digital processor to process the sensed data and derive a signal indicative of the wearer's head motion or position. Some embodiments employ a programmable processor to adapt the head gear to a variety of applications. The signal indicative of head motion or position may be fed into an indicator to provide the wearer with a recognizable feedback signal indicative of head motion or position.

Head gear including a data augmentation unit for detecting head motion and providing feedback relating to the head motion

Apparatus and method for using head gear to sense the motion of the wearer's head and output a signal indicative of the motion. Sensors are used to detect head motion about two mutually perpendicular axes. The sensor signal is fed into a microprocessor to compute a feedback signal indicative of the deviation of the motion from a desired, pre-programmed path. The feedback signal is delivered to an indicator to alert the wearer of the head motion. The device is adaptable to monitor head motions for various athletic, sporting and safety applications.

Head gear for detecting head motion and providing an indication of head

The present invention is concerned with a device for aiding the teaching and training techniques for hitting a baseball consisting of, a shirt to which is installed a flexible magnet within a tunnel to form a magnetic track which runs from the right front shoulder to the left front shoulder in an elliptical fashion; a baseball batting helmet with a chin strap attached thereto containing a magnetic sensor which contacts the magnetic track continuously as it travels from the right shoulder to the left shoulder as the batter swings at the ball; an alarm which notifies the batter of his position when he swings at the ball; an electrical power supply and means for connecting the power supply to the alarm and the magnetic sensor.

Baseball batting aid

The present invention is concerned with a training device which can be worn by a user to teach the correct body position when hitting a baseball comprising: an adjustable sensing mechanism fitted on the batter's helmet to sense the movement in three mutually perpendicular axes of the batter's head in relation to his shoulder during a swing; an audible sound device connected to the sensing mechanism to alert the batter when his head is not correctly positioned in relation to his shoulders during the swing; and an electrical power supply integrated with the sensing mechanism and said audible device and wherein said electrical power supply has sufficient voltage to activate the audible device.

The present invention is concerned with a device for aiding the teaching and training techniques for hitting a baseball accommodating different initial head position and batting style, comprising: a helmet fitted with a mercury switch connected to a motor; a nulling circuit which sets the positional angle of the mercury switch, a tone generator control which activates a tone generator and notifies the batter; two magnetic switches located on each side of the helmet; and, a magnet located on the batter's shirt and a power supply.

Batting trainer

The present invention is concerned with a training device which can be worn by a user to teach the correct body position when hitting a baseball comprising: an adjustable sensing mechanism fitted on the batters helmet to sense the vertical movement of the batters's head in relation to his shoulder during a swing; an audible sound device connected to the sensing mechanism to alert the batter when his head is not correctly positioned in relation to his shoulders during the swing; and an electrical power supply integrated with the sensing mechanism and said audible device and wherein said electrical power supply has sufficient voltage to activate the audible device.

The present invention is concerned with a device design to help teach and train baseball pitchers the correct arm and elbow action when pitching a baseball consisting of an arm elevator harness which fits around the pitcher's body and an arm and elbow elevator guide which is attached to the shoulder harness and guides the pitcher's pitching arm in the right position.

Arm and elbow elevator harness

The present invention is concerned with a training device for hitting a baseball comprising a shoulder harness with a chin holder connected thereto in a manner to allow for movement of the chin holder on a plane from the right shoulder to the left shoulder in an elliptical fashion.
