Description
- 1. Technical Field
- The present invention relates to physical training equipments, and more particularly, to a training apparatus for strengthening human upper-limb muscle strength and motion coordination.
- 2. Description of Related Art
- A conventional upper-limb training apparatus is schematically depicted in
FIG. 1 . In the training apparatus, a crank 1 has its middle portion settled in abase 2 and is allowed to rotate in either direction. Each of two ends of the crank 1 is attached thereto ahandle 3 that rotatable around the corresponding end of the crank 1. A resistance module 4 provides an adjustable resistance to rotation movement of the crank 1. - To use the apparatus, a user holds the handles with his/her two hands and exerts a force to rotate the crank 1 so that his/her upper limbs perform alternate flexion and extension following the moving trace of the crank 1.
- Due to the limited moving mode of the crank 1, when a user exercises with the conventional apparatus, his/her upper limbs are not exercising independently but subject to a mutually driven mechanism. If the user's two upper limbs are unequal in motion capability, the stronger limb may continuously, actively drive the crank 1 while the weaker limb can do noting but be driven by the crank 1. In such case, both the limbs are not properly trained. Besides, though the resistance module 4 provides the adjustable resistance to the crank 1, it fails to provide different scales of resistance to two upper limbs unequal in motion capability at the same time, thus failing to satisfy the respect needs of the two upper limbs, resulting in inferior training efficiency.
- In addition to the above problem, another reason for inferior training efficiency of the traditional training apparatus is its machine-like and dull operation. The immutable reciprocal movement between two upper limbs can soon bore a user, and even make the training course an antipathy to the user.
- The primarily objective of the present invention is to provide an upper-limb training apparatus that allows a user's two upper limbs to independently and actively perform flexion and extension along a round track, so as to free the two upper limbs from the aforesaid mutually driven mechanism in training.
- Another objective of the present invention is to provide an upper-limb training apparatus that allows a user's two upper limbs to receive different degrees of muscle strength training according to the respect needs thereof.
- Another objective of the present invention is to provide an upper-limb training apparatus that connects to an interactive software program or an evaluation software program so as to train and assess motion coordination between a user's two upper limbs.
- Another objective of the present invention is to provide an upper-limb training apparatus that connects to an interactive software program so as to add an entertaining effect in training course.
- An upper-limb training apparatus comprise:
- a first resistance device and a second resistance device, controlling motion resistance of a first operation module and a second operation module that are to be operated by a user's two upper limbs, respectively, and a resistance control system allowing the user to set resistance loads provided by the first resistance device and the second resistance device to the first operation module and the second operation modules, respectively.
- Besides, a first sensor and a second sensor are provided in the upper-limb training apparatus to detect rotational directions, rotational angles and rotational speeds of the first operation module and the second operation modules, respectively, and to transmit related signals to an interactive software program. The interactive software program presents a dynamic scene controlled thereby in a display and moves a subject in the dynamic scene according to the signal it receives from the first sensor and the second sensor.

Thefirst resistance device 31 and thesecond resistance device 32 provide rotational resistance loads to theshafts 41 so that thefirst operation module 21 and thesecond operation module 22 bear respective rotational resistance independently. - A
resistance control system 50 mainly comprises a firstresistance adjusting unit 51, a secondresistance adjusting unit 52, a firstresistance setting unit 53 and a secondresistance adjusting unit 54. The firstresistance adjusting unit 51 is coupled to thefirst resistance device 31. The firstresistance adjusting unit 51 receives a resistance information input from the firstresistance setting unit 53 and adjusts the rotational resistance load thefirst resistance device 31 applies to thefirst operation module 21 according to the received resistance information. The secondresistance adjusting unit 52 is coupled to thesecond resistance device 32. The secondresistance adjusting unit 52 receives a resistance information input from the secondresistance setting unit 54 and adjusts the rotational resistance load thesecond resistance device 32 applies to thesecond operation module 22 according to the received resistance information. The first and secondresistance setting units resistance setting units elements main body 11. Thus, a user can operate the first and second adjustingelements first operation module 21 and thesecond operation module 22 changed. In another aspect of the present invention, the first and secondresistance setting units display 14 having a touch screen. Resistance setting is exhibited in thedisplay 14 in a programmable manner so that a user can input his/her desired resistance values through the touch screen to change the operation resistance of thefirst operation module 21 and thesecond operation module 22. In still another aspect of the present invention, a remote control is implemented to input the resistance information. - An
interactive control system 60 primarily comprises afirst sensor 33, asecond sensor 34 and aninteractive software program 55. Thefirst sensor 33 and thesecond sensor 34 detect rotational directions, rotational angles and rotational speeds of thefirst operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22, respectively. Then thefirst sensor 33 and thesecond sensor 34 convert sensing results into specific signals and transmit the signals to theinteractive software program 55. Theinteractive software program 55 presents a dynamic scene controlled thereby in thedisplay 14. In addition, theinteractive software program 55 receives the signals from thefirst sensor 33 and thesecond sensor 34 and uses the signals as moving parameters to move a subject in the dynamic scene. In the present embodiment, thefirst sensor 33 and thesecond sensor 34 are arranged at two sides of theframe 15, while sensing components thereof are set on theshafts 41 of thefirst operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22, respectively. - The
first operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22 of the disclosed training apparatus provide round moving tracks so as to allow a user to perform flexion and extension with his/her two upper limbs. Since thefirst operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22 are two independent components, the user's two upper limbs move independently but not in a mutually driven relation. Moreover, thefirst operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22 have their resistance loads controlled by thefirst resistance device 31 andsecond resistance device 32, respectively. Thereby, the user's can train his/her upper limbs with their respectively proper resistance loads, so as to strength his/her shoulder joints, elbow joints, wrist joints, upper-limb muscle groups and chest-and-back muscle groups. - The
interactive control system 60 enables a user to operate thefirst operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22 according to the circumstances provided in the dynamic scene. An example will be described below. - When the
first operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22 rotate forward simultaneously, the subject in the dynamic scene in thedisplay 14 moves forward. - When the
first operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22 rotated backward simultaneously, the subject in the dynamic scene in thedisplay 14 moves backward. - When the
first operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22 rotated forward simultaneously, while thefirst operation module 21 runs faster than thesecond operation modules 22, the subject in the dynamic scene in thedisplay 14 moves rightward. Otherwise, the subject in the dynamic scene in thedisplay 14 moves leftward. - When the
second operation modules 22 stays still and thefirst operation module 21 rotates forward, the subject makes a stop turn to left. Otherwise, the subject makes a stop turn to right. - Basing on the above basic operation modes, in cooperation with program control, other movements of the subject, such as stopping, jumping, rolling, etc., would be possible.
- The
interactive control system 60 enables interactive operation of the disclosed training apparatus, so as to add an entertaining effect in training, and, more important, train a user's hand-brain connection and upper-limb motion coordination. By using theresistance control system 50 to set the resistance of thefirst operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22 and then operating theinteractive control system 60, a user can receive triple training courses including muscle strength, hand-brain connection and upper-limb motion coordination at the same time. Alternative, when thefirst operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22 with the resistance thereof set as zero, a user can use theinteractive control system 60 to train hand-brain connection and upper-limb motion coordination. - An
evaluation software program 56 may be implemented in theinteractive control system 60 for evaluating a user's moving capability. Thefirst sensor 33 and thesecond sensor 34 detect rotational directions, rotational angles and rotational speeds of thefirst operation module 21 and thesecond operation modules 22, respectively. Then thefirst sensor 33 and thesecond sensor 34 convert sensing results into specific signals and transmit the signals to theevaluation software program 56.

joint element 42 is fixed to the second end of theshaft 41. - A
shank 43 is coupled to thejoint element 42 and positioned perpendicular to theshaft 41. Thejoint element 42 has a plurality ofholes 431 in additional to a radially extending throughhole 421 that allows theshank 43 to pass therethrough. Apositioning element 44 is detachably settled on apositioning hole 422 formed on thejoint element 42. Thepositioning element 44 has a positioning pin 411 at an end thereof. The positioning pin 411 is inserted into one saidhole 431 to fix theshank 43.
