Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a training device, in particular to an isokinetic and isotonic muscle strength training device. Background Art
[0002] During the post-operative recovery period, stroke patients need to begin rehabilitation training as quickly as possible, tailored to their condition, to achieve the best possible recovery. The earlier rehabilitation training begins, the better the outcome. Modern rehabilitation theory and practice demonstrate that effective rehabilitation training can reduce functional disability rates, improve mobility on the affected side, and increase patient satisfaction with treatment. Currently, the most common training equipment is strength training equipment, such as dumbbells and pull-up bars.
[0003] For example, training with dumbbells involves overcoming the weight of the dumbbells to build muscle. Dumbbells are generally heavy, making them dangerous for newly recovered patients. Alternatively, training with elastic resistance ropes involves applying force to the patient through deformation, making it difficult to control the force. Furthermore, these common methods all store potential energy during training, which can be dangerous.
[0004] In recent years, the emergence of isokinetic exercise equipment in the fields of sports medicine and rehabilitation medicine has effectively addressed safety concerns. Its characteristic is that it provides a torque corresponding to the force applied by the patient, while maintaining a constant speed during the process. This method greatly reduces the risk of muscle training. However, the equipment used to achieve isokinetic exercise is generally complex, bulky, and expensive. During the stroke recovery period, the earlier rehabilitation training is initiated, the better the recovery effect. However, stroke patients have difficulty moving in the early stages of recovery and find it difficult to move to isokinetic training equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0040] Example 1:
[0041] An isokinetic and isotonic muscle training device, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2As shown, it includes a motor assembly 1, a compact elastic mechanism 2, a rope 4, a handle 5, a motor driver 6, a controller 7, and a power module 8; wherein the motor assembly 1 is connected to one end of the rope 2-12 rope 4, the rope 4 passes through the compact elastic mechanism 2 and is connected to the handle 5, the motor driver 6 is connected to the motor assembly 1, the controller 7 connects the motor driver 6 and the electronic components in the compact elastic mechanism 2, and the power module 8 is used to power the training device. In addition, it also includes a housing, which includes an upper shell 3-1 and a lower shell 3-2. The upper shell 3-1 and the lower shell 3-2 form a storage space, and the upper shell 3-1 also has an opening for the rope 4 to enter and exit. The motor assembly 1, the compact elastic mechanism 2, the rope 4, the handle 5, the motor driver 6, the controller 7, and the power module 8 are placed in the storage space.
[0042] The power module 8 can be a detachable battery that can be replaced after the battery is exhausted. In addition, a voltage conversion device can also be provided to use an external power supply so that it can work for a long time without charging.
[0043] Among them, such as Figure 3 As shown, the motor assembly 1 includes: a motor and reduction box 1-1, a motor fixing flange 1-2, a stranded wire hub 1-3, a motor base 1-4, a hub bottom end bearing 1-5, a hub end bearing 1-6 and a retaining spring 1-7; the motor and reduction box 1-1 is mounted on the motor base 1-4 through the motor fixing flange 1-2, the output shaft of the motor and reduction box 1-1 is connected to the stranded wire hub 1-3, the stranded wire hub 1-3 is arranged in the motor base 1-4, and the bottom end of the stranded wire hub 1-3 is connected to the hub The bottom bearing 1-5 is connected to the motor base 1-4, and the end of the stranded wire hub 1-3 is connected to the motor base 1-4 through the hub end bearing 1-6; the hub end bearing 1-6 is arranged at the end of the stranded wire hub 1-3 away from the motor and the reduction box 1-1, and the retaining spring 1-7 is installed on the motor base 1-4 and presses the end of the hub end bearing 1-6 to limit the axial position of the stranded wire hub 1-3. The rope 4 is fixed on the stranded wire hub 1-3 and is wound on the stranded wire hub 1-3.
[0044] Specifically, the motor driver 6 is fixed to the inner cavity of the shell and is electrically connected to the motor and the reducer 1-1. The controller 7 is connected to the motor driver 6 and is used to control the output of the motor and the reducer 1-1. The output force and output speed of the motor and the reducer 1-1 are controllable. The output shaft of the motor and the reducer 1-1 drives the stranding hub 1-3 to rotate. The stranding hub 1-3 has a groove structure for accommodating the end of the fixed rope 4. The rope 4 is fixed on the stranding hub 1-3. As the stranding hub 1-3 rotates, the rope 4 is wound around or released on the stranding hub 1-3.
[0045] like Figure 4As shown, the compact elastic mechanism 2 (elastic structure) includes a pulley block bracket 2-1, a linear guide rail 2-2, a linear guide slider 2-3, a pulley base 2-4, a movable pulley 2-5, an output fixed pulley 2-6, an input fixed pulley 2-7, a split roller 2-8, a linear displacement sensor 2-9, a winding member 2-10, a torsion spring 2-11 and a connecting rope 2-12; the linear guide rail 2-2 is installed on the pulley block bracket 2-1, the linear guide slider 2-3 is slidably installed on the linear guide rail 2-2, the pulley base 2-4 is installed on the linear guide slider 2-3, and the movable slider The wheel 2-5 is installed on the pulley base 2-4, and the linear displacement sensor 2-9 is installed on the pulley block bracket 2-1. The linear displacement sensor 2-9 is configured to detect the displacement of the linear guide slider 2-3 on the linear guide rail 2-2. The controller 7 is connected to the linear displacement sensor 2-9. The linear displacement sensor 2-9 is fixed inside the pulley block bracket 2-1 to reduce space occupation and match the installation and working range of the movable pulley 2-5; the output fixed pulley 2-6 and the input fixed pulley 2-7 are coaxially fixed to the pulley block bracket 2-1 using the same pin, and the movable pulley 2-5 The installation posture is perpendicular to the installation posture of the output fixed pulley 2-6 and the input fixed pulley 2-7. The rope 4 extends from the motor assembly 1, passes through the input fixed pulley 2-7 from top to bottom, and then wraps around the movable pulley 2-5. Then, it extends from the movable pulley 2-5 through the bottom end of the output fixed pulley 2-6 and extends out of the compact elastic mechanism 2. The split roller 2-8 is fixed to the pulley block bracket 2-1 with a pin and is located below the output fixed pulley 2-6 and the input fixed pulley 2-7. The split roller 2-8 is used to limit the rope 4; the winding member 2-10 and the torsion spring 2-11 are installed on the pulley block bracket using the same pin. 2-1 is away from one end of the output fixed pulley 2-6 and the input fixed pulley 2-7, and does not interfere with the sliding of the linear guide slider 2-3 on the linear guide rail 2-2. The winding member 2-10 is rotatably mounted on the pulley block bracket 2-1, and the two ends of the connecting rope 2-12 are respectively connected to the winding member 2-10 and the pulley base 2-4, and the two ends of the torsion spring 2-11 are respectively connected to the winding member 2-10 and the pulley block bracket 2-1. When the linear guide slider 2-3 is away from the winding member 2-10, the connecting rope 2-12 further pulls the winding member 2-10 to rotate, and the potential energy of the torsion spring 2-11 increases.
[0046] The pulley block bracket 2-1 and the winding member 2-10 have a blind hole structure, which cooperates with the pin to position the torsion spring 2-11. When the winding member 2-10 rotates relative to the pulley block bracket 2-1, the potential energy of the torsion spring 2-11 will change.
[0047] The winding member 2-10 has a concave rotating structure for accommodating the rope 4. The winding member 2-10 is provided with a groove structure for accommodating the end of the fixed connecting rope 2-12. The movable pulley 2-5, the input fixed pulley 2-7, and the output fixed pulley 2-6 have a concave rotating structure for accommodating the rope 4. The bottoms of the concave rotating structures of the input fixed pulley 2-7 and the output fixed pulley 2-6 are aligned with the concave rotating structure of the movable pulley 2-5, and the spacing between the concave rotating structures of the input fixed pulley 2-7 and the output fixed pulley 2-6 is adapted to the diameter of the concave rotating structure of the movable pulley 2-5.
[0048] Specifically, the controller 7 is connected to the linear displacement sensor 2-9 to obtain the displacement of the linear guide slider 2-3 (movable pulley 2-5) on the linear guide rail 2-2, thereby calculating the potential energy of the torsion spring 2-11 and controlling the motor. In the compact elastic mechanism 2 described above, the linear guide slider 2-3 is fixed to the pulley block bracket 2-1 by bolts, the pulley base 2-4 is also fixed to the linear guide slider 2-3 by bolts, and the movable pulley 2-5 is fixed to the pulley base 2-4 by a retaining spring.
[0049] The linear displacement sensor 2-9 is electrically connected to the controller 7 and can be a potentiometric sensor, photoelectric sensor, inductive sensor, or other suitable sensor. The linear displacement sensor 2-9 enables the CPU to accurately determine the position of the movable pulley 2-5, thereby further precisely controlling the tension and movement speed of the rope 4. Furthermore, the controller 7 can also calculate the extended distance of the rope 4 by accumulating or calculating the rotor angle using the Hall effect sensor on the motor. The extended distance of the rope 4 and the torque of the motor can be used to further calculate the patient's movement.
[0050] In the embodiment of the present application, the pulley block bracket 2-1, the movable pulley 2-5, the output fixed pulley 2-6 and the input fixed pulley 2-7 form a special routing path, so that the output fixed pulley 2-6 and the input fixed pulley 2-7 are fixed uniformly and work independently of each other, thereby reducing space occupancy; the movable pulley 2-5 is arranged between the input fixed pulley 2-7 and the output fixed pulley 2-6, and the concave rotating structure of the movable pulley 2-5 is coaxial with the concave rotating structures of the output fixed pulley 2-6 and the input fixed pulley 2-7, respectively. The installation posture of the movable pulley 2-5 is normal to the output fixed pulley 2-6 and the input fixed pulley 2-7, so that the routing paths are parallel to each other, thereby reducing the routing length and the space required for routing.
[0051] The power source of the compact elastic mechanism 2 is the winding member 2-10 fixed to the end of the pulley bracket 2-1 and driven by the torsion spring 2-11. Compared with the common solution of using a linear spring as a flexible structure, this design reduces the length and volume and is easy to carry.
[0052] The motor base 1-4 and the pulley block bracket 2-1 can be fixed to the housing, or the motor base 1-4 and the pulley block bracket 2-1 can be fixedly connected by screws, etc., and the pulley block bracket 2-1 can be fixed to the housing. The opening in the housing needs to be adapted to fit the output fixed pulley 2-6 in the compact elastic mechanism 2, and the opening for entering and exiting the rope 4 is coaxial with the arc portion of the concave rotating structure of the output fixed pulley 2-6.
[0053] In the embodiment of the present application, the lower shell 3-2 serves as a bottom plate, and the upper shell 3-1 is a box-type structure with a cavity. In the embodiment of the present application, the upper shell 3-1 and the lower shell 3-2 are buckled together along the bottom extension surface of the motor base 1-4. Connectors are also provided on the housing for fixing the training device to other equipment or objects. The connectors can be buckles and / or bolt holes. For example, buckles and / or bolt holes are provided on the upper shell 3-1. The buckles are used to connect to rope-like objects, such as threading with ropes, and the bolt holes are used to directly fix the present invention to external objects, such as walls, with bolts. In other embodiments, different connectors can also be provided at different positions of the housing as needed.
[0054] The present invention adopts a motor as a traction device, takes advantage of the controllability of the existing motor torque and speed, and combines it with a compact elastic mechanism 2 to ensure safety while varying the pulling force and speed according to the actual needs of the patient, resulting in better training effects, a lightweight structure, and convenient bedside use.
[0055] Compared to existing devices, this invention miniaturizes the previously bulky isokinetic and isotonic training equipment. Through optimized component and structural design, it achieves portability while delivering the same functionality as larger isokinetic devices, enabling isokinetic and isotonic muscle training at the bedside in a compact package. Its compact size and ease of use allow patients to begin bedside training as quickly as possible.
[0056] The controller 7 controls the output torque and speed of the motor and the reduction box 1-1 in real time according to the displacement of the linear guide slider 2-3 (movable pulley 2-5) on the linear guide rail 2-2. In the embodiment of the present application, training modes such as isokinetic concentric, isokinetic eccentric, isometric, and isotonic are provided.
[0057] The control principle of isokinetic training mode is Figure 5 As shown in the flow chart.
[0058] In constant speed training mode, the terminal velocity outer loop uses anti-disturbance control. With a specified velocity as input, the algorithm calculates the current required to achieve the specified speed. The inner loop's PID control algorithm converts this current information into a voltage applied to the motor. The back electromotive force generated during motor operation is offset by information fed back to the inner current control loop. Specifically, the current control feedback signal is obtained via a Hall effect sensor installed in each phase of the brushless DC motor.
[0059] During training, external disturbances and the movement of the mechanism itself may cause deformation of the elastic structure. This deformation information reflects the occurrence of velocity disturbances and torque-induced force disturbances during training. This information can be fed back to the outer speed control loop via a displacement sensor to offset them. By compensating for the torque effects, velocity effects, and positional changes of the elastic mechanism 2 caused by random force variations on the user's arm during training, precise control of the speed of the elastic structure's end rope 4 can be achieved.
[0060] The core formula of the active disturbance rejection control method used in its speed outer loop is:
[0061] Second-order nonlinear extended state observer:
[0062]
[0063] Among them, z 21 Tracking value representing the system status, z 22 is the perturbed observation value, represents z 21 、z 22 The corresponding differential, ε 01 represents the tracking error value, S represents the actual state value of the system, β 01 , β 02 represents the error feedback gain coefficient, α 01 , α 02 is the nonlinear factor, δ 01 , δ 02 is the filter factor, b0 is the system control gain, u represents the output, and fal(,,) is a nonlinear function;
[0064] Nonlinear state error feedback control law:
[0065]
[0066] Among them, ε1 is the error value, u0 is the output of the nonlinear state error feedback control law, β1 represents the error feedback gain coefficient, α1 is the nonlinear factor, and δ1 is the nonlinear system filter factor;
[0067] Nonlinear functions:
[0068]
[0069] Among them, x is the input, α is the nonlinear factor, and δ is the filter factor.
[0070] The control principle of its isotonic training mode is Figure 6 As shown in the flow chart.
[0071] In isometric training mode, the outer loop of the end-tension system uses a PID control algorithm. The input is a specified force. The PID control algorithm generates the current required to achieve the specified speed. This current information is then converted into a voltage applied to the motor via the inner loop's PID control algorithm. The back EMF generated during motor operation is offset by feedback in the inner current control loop. Specifically, the current control feedback signal is obtained via a Hall effect sensor installed in each phase of the brushless DC motor.
[0072] During training, the user's applied force causes the elastic structure to deform. This deformation reflects the tension in the rope, which is then fed back to the outer tension control loop via a displacement sensor. Finally, the tension is friction-compensated before output, ensuring that the output tension matches the given force command.
[0073] The core formula of the PID control method used in its tension outer loop is:
[0074] PID:
[0075]
[0076] Among them, u(t) is the output signal, K p is the proportional control parameter, K i is the integral control parameter, K d is the differential control parameter, e(t) is the input signal;
[0077] Friction compensation:
[0078]
[0079]
[0080]
[0081]
[0082] Among them, a, b, c are shape parameters, ξ is the deformation length, k is the spring constant, F c1 、F c2 is the corrected rope drive tension.
[0083] In addition, the controller 7 can also be provided with a memory to realize the data recording function of recording the patient's usage status and the training data collection function, so as to facilitate the early rehabilitation training of stroke patients at the bedside as soon as possible. The controller 7 can collect training data simultaneously during muscle strength training to assist in training evaluation, including: peak torque, peak torque to body weight ratio, peak torque corresponding angle, total power, average power, which is convenient for statistical analysis of the patient's training effect. Through these muscle strength evaluation indicators, the muscle strength of the trained muscle group, the explosive power characteristics of the muscle, the endurance of the muscle, the degree of muscle fatigue, etc. can be reflected to assist in guiding rehabilitation training.
[0084] A communication module can also be added to the controller 7, such as Figure 7 As shown, in conjunction with a mobile device equipped with a client, a wireless communication function of connecting a patient's mobile phone and / or computer and / or cloud server can be realized. The mobile device can be a mobile phone, a tablet, a computer, etc. The client program can be run on a mobile device or a computer, and the mobile device or computer equipped with the client program can directly connect to the training device via Bluetooth, NFC or WIFI. Through the mobile device, a variety of data and control signals can be sent to the controller 7, including but not limited to the torque change curve in isokinetic training, the tension value in isotonic training, the speed switch and the sleep command, and the voice command. The corresponding application on the patient's mobile device can receive the collected various data, including but not limited to the patient's actual training curve and current power information, which is more convenient to use.
[0085] An automatic switch function can also be set. The controller 7 can control the motor and reducer 1-1 to automatically start working when the patient pulls the stranded wire hub 1-3 to rotate without the need for an additional switch. If the patient does not use it for a long time, it will automatically shut down or sleep.
[0086] The process of using this application is as follows:
[0087] The patient starts the training equipment by pulling the handle 5. After the training equipment starts, it will perform a self-test and emit a prompt sound after the self-test passes. At this time, the patient can select the isokinetic training mode through the client program, or directly operate on the button of the controller 7. According to the mode set by the patient, the motor driver 6 drives the motor and the reduction box 1-1 to operate. When the training equipment is not started, the patient can also start the training equipment through a mobile device installed with the client. The patient can also select the isotonic training mode through the client program and set the required tension value. The controller 7 drives the motor through the motor driver 6 according to the value set by the patient, so that the motor and the reduction box 1-1 output a specific tension.
[0088] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0089] (1) It is small in size and easy to carry and use. It can easily achieve early stroke rehabilitation muscle strength training at the bedside and assist in training evaluation.
[0090] (2) The use of a compact elastic structure greatly reduces the size of the isokinetic and isotonic training equipment, further ensuring safety and ensuring reasonable output while taking into account the characteristics of lightness, small size, and convenience for bedside use.
[0091] (3) The control of the isokinetic training mode uses anti-disturbance control in the outer loop of the terminal speed and PI control in the inner loop of the current. At the same time, it compensates for the torque effect, speed effect, and position change of the elastic structure caused by the random force changes on the arm during training, thereby achieving precise control of the terminal speed of the elastic structure.
[0092] (4) The control of the isometric training mode uses PID control for the outer loop of the terminal tension and PI control for the inner loop of the current. At the same time, the friction force existing in the movement of the pulley group is compensated, thereby achieving precise control of the terminal tension of the elastic structure.
[0093] (5) Training data can be collected during strength training to assist in training evaluation, reflect training effects, and assist in guiding rehabilitation training.
[0094] The above describes in detail the preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make numerous modifications and variations based on the concepts of the present invention without inventive effort. Therefore, any technical solutions that can be derived by those skilled in the art through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation based on the concepts of the present invention and the prior art should be within the scope of protection defined by the claims.
