[0003] At present, common resistors on the market are usually composed of key components such as flywheels, permanent magnets, stator cores, coils, and brake mechanisms. When users exercise, the flywheel starts to rotate, and a closed magnetic circuit is formed between the permanent magnets installed on it and the stator core, which in turn generates an induced current in the coil. The electrical energy in this process is rectified and filtered, converted into direct current, and transmitted to the brake mechanism, thereby applying resistance to the flywheel to achieve the desired exercise effect.

In addition, due to its delicate structure and high maintenance cost, it may not be the best choice for consumers who pursue portability and economy. Therefore, how to further optimize the structure and size of the resistor while maintaining high performance so that it can better adapt to the diverse market needs will be a major challenge in the field of fitness equipment.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.
[0028] Embodiment 1: Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, a light and high torque eddy current resistor is provided, comprising a housing 1, a flywheel 7 having a magnetic conductive surface 71 disposed at an annular outer end is rotatably connected in the housing 1, the magnetic conductive surface 71 is rotated by the flywheel 7, and two magnetic resistance mechanisms, which are respectively located on the left and right sides of the magnetic conductive surface 71 and are arranged opposite to each other and are composed of a resistance core 21 located outside the flywheel 7 and an electromagnetic coil 2 installed inside the resistance core 21, are symmetrically installed inside the housing 1, and the two magnetic resistance mechanisms are used in combination to apply resistance to the rotation of the flywheel 7;
[0029] An annular speed sticker 72 is arranged on the rear end of the flywheel 7, and an optical sensor 73 located outside the flywheel 7 and directly behind the annular speed sticker 72 is arranged on the inner rear wall of the housing 1. The optical sensor 73 and the annular speed sticker 72 are used in conjunction with each other to detect the speed of the flywheel 7. Then, the reel 8 located on the right side of the magnetic resistance mechanism is rotatably connected to the housing 1, and the traction rope 4 is reeled in through the reel 8.
[0030] The front end of the take-up shaft 8 passes through the housing 1 and is connected to the first transmission wheel 5 located on the front side of the housing 1, and the shaft of the flywheel 7 passes through the housing 1 and is connected to the second transmission wheel 6 located on the front side of the housing 1, and the first transmission wheel 5 and the second transmission wheel 6 are connected by a belt. The first transmission wheel 5, the second transmission wheel 6 and the belt are used together to rotate the flywheel 7, and then the traction rope 4 whose movable end extends out of the right side of the housing 1 is wound around the outer end of the take-up shaft 8, and the take-up shaft 8 is rotated through the traction rope 4.
[0031] When in use, the electromagnetic coil 2 circuit is first connected, and a magnetic field is generated on the resistance iron core 21 through the principle of magneto-electric conversion. A closed magnetic circuit is formed between this magnetic field and the magnetic conductive surface 71 on the flywheel 7. Then, the active part of the fitness device movably connected to the traction rope 4 is pulled, so that the traction rope 4 is released to the right, and the reel 8 is rotated, thereby rotating the first transmission wheel 5, and with the assistance of the synchronous belt, the second transmission wheel 6 is rotated, thereby rotating the flywheel 7 and the magnetic conductive surface 71;
[0032] The rotation of the flywheel 7 will destroy the closed magnetic circuit formed between the magnetic conductive surface 71 and the resistance iron core 21. According to Lenz's law, when a stable magnetic circuit is destroyed by an external force, a force of the same magnitude and opposite direction will be generated to resist, and this force will form a resistance load on the pulling of the traction rope 4.
[0033] And two magnetic resistance mechanisms formed by the electromagnetic coil 2 and the resistance iron core 21 are located on the left and right sides of the flywheel 7, so that closed magnetic circuits are formed on both sides of the flywheel 7, and the two closed magnetic circuits will not interfere with each other. During the rotation of the flywheel 7, the two closed magnetic circuits will form eddy current magnetic resistance, and the eddy current magnetic resistance can reach the highest torque;
[0034] The flywheel 7 with a smaller diameter and volume can generate a high-efficiency motion load, which is thin and light but has high torque, and is convenient for the spatial configuration design of fitness equipment. It can also achieve sufficient motion load, so that it can be applied to various fitness equipment, and can also improve the efficiency of the load, effectively ensuring the fitness effect;
[0035] During the rotation of the flywheel 7, the annular speed sticker 72 will rotate. At this time, the optical sensor 73 will collect the speed data of the annular speed sticker 72 and transmit the speed data to the terminal. The terminal analyzes and calculates the speed data, thereby transmitting an appropriate current to the electromagnetic coil 2 to adjust the resistance load.
[0036] Embodiment 2: Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the box body 3 with the opening facing left and located on the right side of the winding shaft 8 is installed in the shell 1, and the box body 3 is used to provide installation space for components such as the guide cylinder 37, and the right end surface of the box body 3 is recessed to the left to form a through hole 32 extending to the inner wall of the box body 3, and the traction rope 4 is led out of the box body 3 through the through hole 32, and the movable cylinder 31 located on the right side of the through hole 32 and extending out of the right side of the shell 1 is installed on the right end of the box body 3, and the movable cylinder 31 is used to prevent the traction rope 4 from rubbing against the edge of the inner wall of the through hole 32;
[0037] The guide cylinder 37 located on the left side of the through hole 32 is movably installed in the box body 3, and the movement of the traction rope 4 is guided by the guide cylinder 37, and the nut seat 36 located in the box body 3 is set on the lower end of the guide cylinder 37, and the nut seat 36 is used to provide a mounting carrier for the guide cylinder 37, and then the screw rod 35 that penetrates the nut seat 36 and is connected to the nut seat 36 through the rolling nut pair is rotatably connected to the box body 3, and the nut seat 36 is made to move linearly through the screw rod 35;
[0038] The two guide wheels 33 located at the front and rear ends of the traction rope 4 and on the right side of the nut seat 36 are symmetrically rotated and connected to the inside of the box body 3. The two guide wheels 33 are used in combination to guide the movement of the traction rope 4, and the rear end of the winding shaft 8 passes through the outer shell 1 and is connected to the second sprocket 81 located on the rear side of the outer shell 1. The rear end of the screw rod 35 passes through the box body 3 and the outer shell 1 and is connected to the first sprocket 34 located on the rear side of the outer shell 1, and the first sprocket 34 is connected to the second sprocket 81 through a chain. The first sprocket 34, the second sprocket 81 and the chain are used in combination to make the screw rod 35 rotate as the winding shaft 8 rotates, and the movable end of the traction rope 4 passes through the guide cylinder 37, the through hole 32 and the guide cylinder 37.
[0039] When in use, first pull the active part of the fitness equipment movably connected to the traction rope 4, so that the traction rope 4 is released to the right, and the winding shaft 8 is rotated, so that the second sprocket 81 is rotated, and with the assistance of the chain, the first sprocket 34 is rotated, and then the screw rod 35 is rotated. Because the screw rod 35 is connected to the nut seat 36 through a rolling nut pair, the screw rod 35 rotates and the nut seat 36 performs a straight line movement back and forth, so that the guide cylinder 37 performs a straight line movement back and forth, so that the traction rope 4 on the winding shaft 8 can move in an orderly manner, effectively reducing the probability of damage caused by friction between the traction rope 4 and the outer shell 1 and other components, and effectively reducing the probability of knotting of the traction rope 4 on the winding shaft 8, effectively ensuring the fitness effect.
[0040] Although this specification is described according to implementation modes, not every implementation mode includes only one independent technical solution. This description of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment may also be appropriately combined to form other implementation modes that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
