Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a jump rope, and more specifically to a voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle and its control method. Background Technology

[0002] Nowadays, rope skipping has become widely popular, and the rope handles used in rope skipping generally have a counting function. However, due to the limited size of the rope handle, the number of function buttons installed is also limited, usually only one or two buttons for operations such as turning the rope on and off. This means that the rope handle only has a simple on / off and counting function, and when timed exercise (such as one or two minutes) or a fixed number of repetitions (such as 100 or 200 repetitions) is required, using buttons is extremely inconvenient and often leads to abandoning the exercise altogether.

[0003] Touchscreen technology is widely used in modern electronic products, but it is not suitable for use on jump rope handles as it can cause misoperation and is also costly.

[0004] Therefore, the inventor believes it is necessary to develop a new control method for jump rope handles to achieve more functional control. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in the prior art by providing a voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle and its control method.

[0006] The objective of this invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle includes a handle body and a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the handle body; a counting sensor is provided at the inner end of the rotating shaft, and a microcontroller is electrically connected to the counting sensor; a microphone is also provided connected to the microcontroller; the microcontroller is provided with a voice recognition module, which stores voiceprint reference information; when the overlap between the voiceprint information collected by the microphone and the voiceprint reference information reaches a set value, the microcontroller activates the jump rope counting mode corresponding to the voiceprint reference information.

[0008] The further technical solution is as follows: the handle body is provided with a recording hole corresponding to the microphone; the microcontroller is also connected to a buzzer to output feedback information.

[0009] The further technical solution is as follows: the voiceprint reference information includes at least a username, and the username includes at least one or more combinations of Chinese characters, Arabic numerals, and English letters.

[0010] The further technical solution includes a control button that, when pressed, activates the recording function of the microphone to record external voiceprint information.

[0011] A further technical solution includes a speaker connected to the microcontroller for playing sound and outputting feedback information.

[0012] The further technical solution is as follows: the voiceprint reference information is multi-type reference information, and the microcontroller is equipped with combined control information corresponding to the multi-type reference information; after the voice recognition module identifies the voiceprint information whose overlap with the multi-type reference information reaches a set value, it outputs the first control information, and after a set time, it outputs the second control information, and so on, to complete the output of multiple control information; so that after a single start, the voiceprint information is output intermittently in several batches to guide candidates or athletes to perform multiple sets of rope skipping exercises.

[0013] The further technical solution is as follows: the voiceprint reference information includes timing information and / or fixed-number information. The timing information includes at least one of timing 1 minute, timing 2 minutes, timing 3 minutes, timing 5 minutes, and timing 10 minutes; the fixed-number information includes at least one of fixed-number 200 cycles, fixed-number 300 cycles, fixed-number 400 cycles, fixed-number 500 cycles, fixed-number 600 cycles, fixed-number 700 cycles, fixed-number 800 cycles, fixed-number 900 cycles, and fixed-number 1000 cycles.

[0014] The further technical solution is as follows: the voiceprint reference information is deep breathing reference information, the deep breathing reference information is set to a deep breathing time of 3-10 seconds for each deep breath, an interval of 3-10 seconds, and a set number of at least 3 times; when the overlap between the voiceprint information collected by the microphone and the deep breathing reference information reaches a set value, the deep breathing jump rope mode is activated.

[0015] The present invention discloses a counting method for a voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle, which employs the aforementioned voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle; and after outputting the first control information, after collecting jump rope exercise data, outputting the second control information after a set time, and so on.

[0016] The present invention provides a counting method for a voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle, which uses the aforementioned voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle; and, before each jump rope session, a deep breathing test is performed, and the number of jump rope sessions is at least 3.

[0017] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention uses a microphone to collect voiceprint information and compares it with built-in voiceprint reference information. When the overlap reaches a set value, the corresponding control function is activated, thus providing a convenient and quick control method for jump rope users. The voiceprint reference information can be a combination of two or more of Chinese characters, Arabic numerals, and English letters, allowing for more effective control by different users and facilitating the use of the same jump rope handle by multiple users. It also includes a button to activate the voice pickup function, eliminating the need for the microcontroller to remain in standby mode and reducing power consumption. Furthermore, it employs multi-stage reference information to output multiple sets of jump rope movement control signals to guide users through multiple sets of jump rope exercises. It also incorporates deep breathing reference information; if deep breathing is detected, a deep breathing mode jump rope exercise can be activated. Through this voiceprint detection method, users are indirectly guided to take deep breaths before exercise, thereby improving the quality of jump rope exercise. Attached Figure Description

[0030] To better understand the technical content of the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention will be further introduced and explained below with reference to specific embodiments, but is not limited thereto.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown in the first specific embodiment, this invention provides a voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle, comprising a handle body 10 and a rotating shaft 20 rotatably connected to the handle body 10; a counting sensor 31 is provided at the inner end of the rotating shaft 20, and a microcontroller 30 is electrically connected to the counting sensor 31; a microphone 32 is also provided connected to the microcontroller 30; the microcontroller 30 is provided with a voice recognition module 33, which stores voiceprint reference information. When the overlap between the voiceprint information collected by the microphone 32 and the voiceprint reference information reaches a set value, the microcontroller 30 activates the jump rope counting mode corresponding to the voiceprint reference information. More specifically, the voiceprint reference information includes at least a username, and the username includes at least one or more combinations of Chinese characters, Arabic numerals, and English letters. More specifically, the voiceprint reference information includes timing information and / or fixed-number information. The timing information includes at least one of timing for 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, and 10 minutes; the fixed-number information includes at least one of fixed-number 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, and 1000 cycles.

[0032] More specifically, the handle body 10 is provided with a recording hole corresponding to the microphone 32; the microcontroller 30 is also connected to a buzzer 34 to output feedback information. The handle body 10 is provided with a circuit board 18 for fixing components such as the microcontroller, wherein the counting sensor 31 is located at one end of the circuit board 18 near the rotation axis.

[0033] More specifically, it also includes a control button 35 connected to the microcontroller 30, which, when pressed, activates the recording function of the microphone 32 to record external voiceprint information.

[0034] More specifically, it also includes a speaker 36 connected to the microcontroller 30 for playing sound to output feedback information. It also includes a power supply circuit 37 connected to the microcontroller 30, and a battery 38 and a charging interface 39 connected to the power supply circuit 37.

[0035] More specifically, in the voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle of the present invention, the counting sensor 31 is a magnetic encoder. A magnetic ring 21 corresponding to the magnetic encoder is provided at the inner end of the rotating shaft, with its magnetic field center corresponding to the center of the magnetic encoder; that is, the magnetic field center of the magnetic ring 21 needs to correspond to the center of the rotating shaft 20. The magnetic ring 21 has a raised flat portion to allow for the machining of threaded holes, facilitating its fixation to the inner end of the rotating shaft using set screws. Using such a counting sensor optimizes the handle structure and reduces its size.

[0036] In other embodiments, Hall switches, reed switches, or other detection methods can also be used for counting.

[0037] In other embodiments, only a buzzer may be provided to provide only feedback sound, or only a speaker may be provided to provide both feedback sound and playback sound.

[0038] The present invention discloses a counting method for a voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle, which employs the aforementioned voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle; and after outputting the first control information, after collecting jump rope exercise data, outputting the second control information after a set time, and so on.

[0039] In another embodiment, the voiceprint reference information is multi-stage reference information, and the microcontroller has combined control information corresponding to the multi-stage reference information. After the voice recognition module identifies voiceprint information whose overlap with the multi-stage reference information reaches a set value, it outputs the first control information. After a set time, it outputs the second control information, and so on, to complete the output of multiple control information. This allows the voiceprint information to be output intermittently after a single start-up, in order to guide examinees or athletes to perform multiple sets of jump rope exercises. For example, there are four sets of jump rope exercises. The speaker plays a sound to remind the user to perform the first exercise, timed for 2 minutes or 300 laps. After a 3-minute interval, the user is reminded to perform the second exercise, timed for 3 minutes or 600 laps. After a 2-minute interval, the user is reminded to perform the third exercise, timed for 3 minutes or 600 laps. After a 3-minute interval, the user is reminded to perform the fourth exercise, timed for 2 minutes or 400 laps.

[0040] In another embodiment, the voiceprint reference information is deep breathing reference information. Each deep breath in the deep breathing reference information is set to a duration of 3-10 seconds, with an interval of 3-10 seconds, and the number of breaths is set to at least 3. When the overlap between the voiceprint information collected by the microphone and the deep breathing reference information reaches a set value, the deep breathing jump rope mode is activated. This mode can guide users to perform effective deep breathing before jump rope, adjust their physical and mental state, and provide pre-exercise breathing guidance; thereby guiding users to fully immerse themselves in the jump rope exercise. Specifically, the user places the microphone hole of the jump rope handle at the front of their mouth. When entering the deep breathing jump rope mode, the user also needs to input the corresponding voiceprint information to enter the corresponding timed mode or numbered mode.

[0041] like Figure 3 In the second embodiment shown, the recording hole of the handle body 10 is an airflow guide hole 19. When the user's exhaled airflow passes through the airflow guide hole 19 for a long time, the microphone 32 can more effectively detect and maintain a more consistent detection signal, avoiding errors.

[0042] More specifically, such as Figure 4 In the third embodiment shown, the airflow guide hole 19 is an L-shaped hole, located near the outlet 191 of the control button 35, and is equipped with a baffle 17. The other end of the airflow guide hole 19 is located at the end of the handle housing. A cavity 101 is provided on the outer surface of the handle body 10. One end of the baffle 17 is fixed to the side of the cavity 101, and the other end passes through the cavity 101 and extends to the side wall of the outlet 191, blocking the outlet 191. When there is no external force, the baffle 17 can block the outlet 191, making the voiceprint information entering the guide hole smaller and less likely to cause misidentification. When voiceprint control is required, the position of the baffle 17 in the cavity 101 is pressed, causing it to deform inward, thereby moving the baffle 17 away from the side wall of the outlet 191, allowing airflow to pass freely. At this time, external voiceprint information or the sound of airflow formed by deep breathing can be easily detected. In addition, the airflow guide hole 19 is an L-shaped hole, with the longer direction parallel to the length of the handle housing and the shorter direction at the outlet 191 end. The microphone is located at the corner near the L-shaped hole. When the outlet 191 is blocked, the microphone receives less voiceprint information because it is far from the inlet at the end of the handle, thereby improving the reliability of voiceprint control.

[0043] It can also be like Figure 5 In the fourth embodiment shown, a sound-insulating plate 16 is also provided laterally along the longer direction of the airflow guide hole 19. The outer end of the sound-insulating plate 16 is fixed to the inner middle of the baffle 17 at the position of the cavity 101. A through hole 160 is provided in the middle of the sound-insulating plate 16. The handle body 10 is provided with a guide groove 102 for installing the sound-insulating plate 16. When there is no external force, the through hole 160 of the sound-insulating plate 16 is placed in the guide groove 102, and both directions of the airflow guide hole 19 are blocked. The microphone 32 cannot collect voiceprint information, thus preventing misoperation caused by misidentification. The fourth embodiment is more reliable than the third embodiment and has a waterproof function to prevent water from entering the microphone.

[0044] The present invention provides a counting method for a voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle, which uses the aforementioned voiceprint-controlled jump rope handle; and, before each jump rope session, a deep breathing test is performed, and the number of jump rope sessions is at least 3.

[0045] In summary, this invention utilizes a microphone to collect voiceprint information and compares it with built-in voiceprint reference information. When the overlap reaches a set value, the corresponding control function is activated, providing a convenient and quick control method for jump rope users. The voiceprint reference information can be a combination of two or more of Chinese characters, Arabic numerals, and English letters, allowing for more effective control by different users and facilitating the use of the same jump rope handle by multiple users. It also includes a button to activate the voiceprint function, preventing the microcontroller from remaining in standby mode and reducing power consumption. Furthermore, it employs multi-stage reference information to output multiple sets of jump rope movement control signals, guiding users through multiple sets of jump rope exercises. Finally, it incorporates deep breathing reference information; if deep breathing is detected, a deep breathing mode jump rope exercise can be activated. This voiceprint detection method indirectly guides users to take deep breaths before exercise, thereby improving the quality of jump rope exercise.

[0046] The above examples are merely illustrative of the technical content of the present invention to facilitate easier understanding by the reader, but do not imply that the implementation of the present invention is limited to these examples. Any technical extensions or re-creations made based on the present invention are protected by the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the claims.
