[0064] The exercise device may include a main body A, and various components of the exercise device may be arranged in the main body A.
[0065] Optionally, the exercise device further includes: a pressure sensing component 30, which is used to collect control instructions from the user and transmit the control instructions to the control component. The pressure sensing component 30 may be arranged directly above the main body A to facilitate collection of user control instructions.

The battery is used to provide electrical energy to the motor. The motor may be connected to the omnidirectional wheel for driving the omnidirectional wheel or braking the omnidirectional wheel.
[0067] It should be noted, image 3 What is shown is a case where there are 4 omnidirectional wheels 10, and the positions of the 4 omnidirectional wheels can constitute 4 vertices of a square. In addition, the number of omnidirectional wheels in the exercise device can be more, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0070] In summary, the movement device provided by the embodiment of the present invention solves the problem of braking the movement device in the related art by providing a peripheral wheel brake assembly on the center wheel to control the resistance of the peripheral wheels around the center wheel during rotation. Uncontrollable movement may occur due to other reasons, and the problem of low braking performance. The effect that the peripheral wheel brake assembly can be used to increase the resistance when the peripheral wheel rotates and prevent the peripheral wheel from rotating at will is achieved.
[0071] Pic 4-1 It is a flowchart of a method for controlling a sports device provided by an embodiment of the present invention for controlling image 3 In the exercise device shown, the method includes:
[0072] In step 401, when a braking instruction is received, the resistance of the center wheel of the omnidirectional wheel when rotating is increased, and the resistance of the peripheral wheel when the peripheral wheel is rotating is increased through the peripheral wheel brake assembly on the omnidirectional wheel.
[0073] When the control component receives the braking command of any one of the omnidirectional wheels, it can increase the resistance of the center wheel of the omnidirectional wheel when rotating, and increase the resistance of the surrounding wheels when the peripheral wheel rotates through the peripheral wheel braking component on the omnidirectional wheel. That is, the center wheel and peripheral wheels are simultaneously braked. Exemplarily, the center wheel can be braked by the motor, and the peripheral wheel can be braked by the peripheral wheel brake assembly. In addition, when the moving device is in a stationary state, the control assembly can also lock both the center wheel and the peripheral wheels to prevent the moving device from sliding. The control component can also adjust the resistance of the peripheral wheels during rotation according to the different ground contact of the motion device, so that the motion device can adapt to different ground contact.
[0074] In the related art, the center wheel is usually braked by a motor. However, when the center wheel is braked, if the entire motion device has kinetic energy in a certain direction, the surrounding wheels may rotate in this direction, causing the motion device to malfunction. The controlled movement affects the braking effect of the motion device, which is dangerous when the motion device carries operators or heavy goods. However, the control method of the exercise device provided by the embodiment of the present invention avoids the random rotation of the peripheral wheels, and improves the braking effect of the exercise device.
[0075] Optionally, the exercise device also includes pressure sensing components, such as Figure 4-2 As shown, the method also includes:
[0076] In step 402, a user's control instruction is received through the pressure sensing component.
[0077] When the user uses the exercise device, the exercise device can receive the user's control instruction through the pressure sensing component. The pressure sensing component can be image 3 The pressure sensing component in the exercise device shown. In addition, the user's control instruction can also be acquired in other ways. For example, the user's control instruction can be received through a control terminal connected to the exercise device.
[0078] In step 403, the center wheel of the omnidirectional wheel is controlled to rotate according to the control instruction.
[0079] After obtaining the user's control instruction, the motion device can control the center wheel of the omnidirectional wheel to rotate according to the control instruction. It should be noted, Pic 4-1 The control method shown and Figure 4-2 The control method shown can be two parallel control methods, and control the motion device under different conditions respectively.
[0080] The control method of the pressure sensing component 30 will now be described, such as Figure 4-3 As shown, it is image 3 The top view of the exercise device shown can divide the pressure sensing component into 4 areas 31, 32, 33, and 34. When operating the exercise device, the user can face the direction N and step on the pressure sensing component 30 with both feet. When the user normally steps on the pressure sensing component 30 (without intentionally deviating to which area), the pressure value of each area on the four areas of the pressure sensing component 30 is the initial value, and then the user can change the pressure sensitivity by changing its own center of gravity The pressure value of each area on the 4 areas of the component 30, and the change of the pressure value of each area may correspond to different control commands.
[0081] Exemplarily, the front, back, left, and right directions of the user facing direction N are all standards for description. When the user leans forward, the pressure applied by the forefoot to the pressure sensing component 30 increases, that is, the area 31 and the area 32 As the pressure value increases and the pressure values in area 33 and area 34 decrease, the exercise device will move forward. At this time, the four omnidirectional wheels of the exercise device will all rotate forward; when the user leans to the left, the left foot will face the pressure sensing assembly 30 When the applied pressure increases and the pressure applied by the right foot to the pressure sensing assembly 30 decreases, the movement device will move to the left. At this time, the omnidirectional wheels 10b and 10c rotate forward, and the omnidirectional wheels 10a and 10d rotate backward; When the pressure values of 33 and area 32 increase, the motion device can perform a rotating action, at this time the omnidirectional wheels 10a and 10c rotate forward, and the omnidirectional wheels 10b and 10d rotate backward. It should be noted that when the control component controls each omnidirectional wheel, if an omnidirectional wheel does not need to be rotated, the control component can lock the center wheel of the omnidirectional wheel through the motor, and use the peripheral wheels to brake when necessary The component locks the peripheral wheels of the omnidirectional wheel to prevent the random rotation of the peripheral wheels from affecting the movement device.
[0082] It should be supplemented that the control method of the exercise device provided by the embodiment of the present invention obtains the user's control instruction through the pressure sensing component, and controls the rotation of the center wheel of the omnidirectional wheel according to the control instruction, so as to facilitate the control of the exercise device The effect of control.
[0083] In summary, the control method of the motion device provided by the embodiment of the present invention increases the resistance of the center wheel and the peripheral wheels of the omnidirectional wheel during rotation when the braking instruction is received, thereby solving the problem of the motion device in the related art. Uncontrollable movement may occur due to other reasons when moving, and the problem of low braking performance. The effect that the peripheral wheel brake assembly can be used to increase the resistance when the peripheral wheel rotates and prevent the peripheral wheel from rotating at will is achieved.
