Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of sports training equipment and motion parameter detection technology, specifically to a table tennis ball strike quality quantification training device and method. Background Technology

[0002] In table tennis training, the speed and spin of the ball after impact are key indicators for evaluating the quality of a shot. Speed ​​parameters reflect the power and rhythm control of the shot, while spin parameters reflect the friction and spin control of the shot.

[0003] Most existing desktop trainers focus on repetitive movement training, and training feedback mainly relies on the trainee's subjective feelings, lacking quantifiable and comparable objective evaluation criteria.

[0004] While some solutions can simulate spin or provide a single parameter display, they typically lack a coordinated mechanism for measuring spin, velocity, and processing the ball after it hits the ball, making it difficult to consistently output quantitative results that can be used for motion correction.

[0005] Therefore, a desktop training technology solution is needed that can simultaneously acquire spin and speed parameters after the trainee hits the ball, and output quantitative feedback through linkage processing. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the problems of difficulty in quantifying the quality of ball strikes, asynchronous parameter acquisition, and insufficient feedback consistency in existing technologies, this invention provides a desktop table tennis ball strike quality quantification training device and method.

[0007] The device of this invention includes a fixed base, a ball-hitting response component, a measurement module, a data processing module, and a data feedback module. The ball-hitting response component includes a movable subunit that can reciprocate along the ball-hitting direction, a rotating shaft that is drivenly connected to the movable subunit, and a rotatable ball unit mounted on the rotating shaft. The movable subunit can reciprocate along the ball-hitting direction, and its reciprocating stroke is limited to the impact stroke.

[0008] The measurement module includes at least one of a rotation measurement submodule and a velocity measurement submodule, preferably including both. The rotation measurement submodule is used to collect rotational parameters of the rotatable ball unit or rotation axis after the trainee hits the ball; the rotational parameters include at least the rotational angular velocity. The velocity measurement submodule is used to collect the velocity parameters of the moving component of the moving subunit after the trainee hits the ball.

[0009] The data processing module is electrically connected to the rotation measurement submodule, the velocity measurement submodule, and the data feedback module, respectively. It is used to trigger and establish a sampling window when a detection signal is received and the preset trigger conditions are met. Within the sampling window, the velocity parameters and rotation parameters are synchronously acquired, time-aligned, and fused, and the ball-hitting quality quantification data is output. The results are then output through the data feedback module.

[0010] In the subordinate technical solution, only the rotation measurement submodule may be configured without the velocity measurement submodule, or only the velocity measurement submodule may be configured without the rotation measurement submodule, to adapt to different training scenarios. The data processing steps are defined in the method claims.

[0011] Furthermore, the device may also include a desktop mounting component. This component, located at the bottom of the mounting base, allows for the detachable mounting of the device to the edge or surface of a desktop. The information feedback module can achieve real-time display and remote recording via a local display unit and a wireless communication unit.

[0012] The present invention also provides a method for quantifying the quality of a shot, a table tennis training data feedback system, and a computer-readable storage medium. Beneficial effects

[0013] This invention achieves synchronous acquisition and quantification of key parameters after a trainee hits the ball by working together with a rotation measurement submodule, a velocity measurement submodule, and a signal processing module, thereby improving the objectivity of training evaluation.

[0014] This invention preserves layered protection space within a single independent claim framework by defining the single rotational configuration and the single velocity configuration through dependent claims.

[0015] This invention differs from serve parameter control schemes by focusing on the actual feedback from trainees after hitting the ball, thus reducing the risk of overlap with serve control schemes. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the device of the present invention, showing the connection relationship between the fixed base, the ball-hitting response component, the speed measurement submodule, the rotation measurement submodule, the data processing module, and the data feedback module.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are used to explain the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] Example 1 (Combination Scheme, see...) Figure 1 The device includes the ball-hitting response component as described in claim 1, a spin measurement submodule, a velocity measurement submodule, and a data processing module. The data processing module synchronously acquires and aligns velocity and spin parameters within a sampling window, outputting quantitative data on the ball-hitting quality.

[0022] Example 2 (Single Rotation Configuration): According to claim 2, the device is only configured with a rotation measurement submodule and not a speed measurement submodule, for rotation control-specific training.

[0023] Example 3 (Single Speed ​​Configuration): According to claim 3, the device is configured with only a speed measurement submodule and not a rotation measurement submodule, for strength and rhythm-specific training.

[0024] Example 4 (Data Processing, see...) Figure 2 The data processing module determines the start time of the hitting event based on a preset and adaptively updateable threshold of the hitting calibration data, and performs synchronous acquisition, time alignment and fusion processing.

[0025] Example 5 (Method flowchart, see...) Figure 3 The process is as follows: S1 triggers and establishes a sampling window; S2 synchronously acquires parameters; S3 fuses and processes the data and outputs quantized data; S4 completes the result output. In this method embodiment, data processing may sequentially include filtering and denoising, outlier removal, time alignment, and fusion calculation.

[0026] Without departing from the technical concept of this invention, those skilled in the art may make equivalent substitutions or modifications to the transmission form, sensor type, threshold strategy, communication protocol and fusion algorithm, all of which should fall within the protection scope of this invention.
