PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a small ankle turning health device, allowing freely selecting of a rotating angle (size of rotation), rotating direction and the like of a foot with one driving source in an ankle turning exercise having various effects in respect of health, simple in structure and inexpensively manufacturable.;SOLUTION: In two right and left foot placing plates to which a sole projecting on a case with the toe on the upper side is made to adhere and fixed, the upper end parts of rods penetrating a top plate of the case are respectively fixed to the heel area thereof, and spherical parts whose outer peripheries are expanded to be spherical are formed on the upper sides of the middle parts of the rods. The spherical parts are supported by spherical bearings mounted on the top plate of the case, and the lower sides of the rods hung down in the case are freely rocked in four ways. The lower sides of both rods mesh with gears driven by a motor and simultaneously engage with eccentric positions of two right and left rotary disks rotated horizontally. Both disks are provided on an elevating support plate, and the support plate is installed in a slide box capable of moving forward and backward in the case.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
