Embodiment Construction

[0020]As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, an interactive balance trainer of the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a base 6 having a base member 61 and an enclosing member 62 on a side of the base member 61 to enclose a resistance adjusting device 4 (the detail of the resistance adjusting device 4 will be described later). The enclosing member 62 includes two bores 63 at opposite sides thereof a positioning member 6A at a third side. A carrier member 64, stood on the opposite side of the enclosing member 62, has a post 641 with a transverse hole 6411 coaxial to position member 6A. A swing device 7, which is a rectangular frame, has a transverse hole 71 on a center of the long side thereof and a positioning member 6B on the other long side. The positioning member 6B is pivoted on the carrier member 64 of the base 6. The positioning member 6A passes through the hole 71 and the positioning member 6B passes through the hole 6411 to pivot the swing device 7 on the carrier m...

Abstract

An interactive balance trainer includes a base, on which a swing device is pivoted for a swing motion. A swing sensing device includes a signal sensor to sense a rotating angle of the swing device and transmit a signal. A central processing unit, which receives the signal transmitted from the swing sensing device, has a main program to compare the signal with a program target value. A resistance adjusting device, which adjusts a resistance exerting on the swing device, has a position sensor providing a feedback signal to the central processing unit. A display unit receives a signal processed by the central processing unit and shows information according to the signal of the central processing unit.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates generally to an exercise machine, and more particularly to an interactive balance trainer.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]There were dozens of years for development of balance trainer. A typical conventional balance trainer is taught by U.S. Pat. No. 6,872,175, which provides a board with a ground-touching elastic bump. User stands on the board to train his / her balance ability. Another conventional balance trainer is taught by U.S. Pat. No. 7,112,168, which provides a board, a base and a connecting assembly to connect the board and the base. User stands on the board and twists in multi-directions to train his / her balance ability.[0005]These conventional balance trainers only provide a kind of exercise mode without various training levels to meet the requirements of different users. Furthermore, the conventional balance trainers cannot provide user an interactive training experi...
