TRAINING SHEET INTENDED FOR TRAINING WITH A PUCK Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC A63B69/00 

FIELD: sports.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to sports equipment, in particular, to apparatuses for training hockey players. The hockey puck constitutes an elastic disk 1 with a magnet 2 installed in the form of an insert in a recess located in the centre of the disk 1. The insert 2 of the disk 1 is made of, e.g., an iridium magnet. The magnet can be removed or inserted at the discretion of the user in order to provide a wide range of training exercises. The removable plug is connected with the main body of the puck in order to retain the magnet inside the cavity. Additionally, a mark 4 with clear coloured sections for indicating the hitting points for training goal shots in the game of ice hockey is placed on the cylindrical surface of the puck. In the game, the puck with magnetic properties has a standard weight, like a traditional hockey puck, and does not require any changes in the conditions of the current game of hockey. But the puck therein acts as a previously unknown piece of sports equipment, magnetically controlled by a stick, with increased playing properties, and when playing with a stick and pushing with a skate, as an ordinary piece of equipment without externally displayed innovations. The training sheet 5 intended for training with a magnetic simulator puck constitutes a synthetic coating in the form of an ice simulator, constituting a solid base of polymer plates (polyethylene, polyurethane, or polypropylene). The training sheet 5 constitutes an integral structure divided into sections, metal strips 7 in the form of ellipses interconnected at one point are located at one end of the sheet 5. Metal strips 7 are located vertically in a row at the other end of the sheet 5.

EFFECT: increase in the effectiveness of the training process, since the athlete is provided with an opportunity of performing training exercises developing the hand of the hockey player, working with the puck at home without ice; the behaviour of the puck is therein close to the behaviour of a real puck on real ice, wherein the weight of the simulator puck corresponds to the weight of an ordinary puck.
