Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention discloses a simulated ski machine pedal, belonging to the field of indoor skiing technology. Background Technology

[0002] Most existing ski simulators only simulate the basic displacement movements of skiing through the linear sliding of the pedals. Their functions are relatively simple, and they can only achieve simple gliding posture imitation. They cannot accurately detect and provide feedback on various posture changes such as pedal tilt, center of gravity shift, and left and right swaying that occur during simulated skiing. They also lack vibration simulation effects that match the actual skiing scene, making it difficult to reproduce the complex physical sensations such as snow surface undulations, bumps, and side tilts encountered during real skiing. As a result, the user's immersion during training is poor, and there is a large gap between simulated training and the real skiing experience, which fails to meet users' needs for highly realistic ski simulation training.

[0024] The control mounting bracket adjusting screw platform allows the mounting bracket adjusting screw to rotate, thereby moving the forefoot mounting bracket relative to the forefoot frame positioning platform to adjust the distance between the forefoot assembly and the rearfoot assembly.

[0025] Furthermore, the heel component includes:

Each of the two simulated ski training modules is configured to correspond one-to-one with a gyroscope 13 located below the simulated ski training module. The gyroscope 13 is used to acquire the attitude data of the pedal support platform 2. There are two vibration simulation motor components, each corresponding to one of the two simulated ski training modules, and each vibration simulation motor component is located below the simulated ski training module. The controller is electrically connected to the two gyroscopes 13 and the two vibration simulation motor components. The controller acquires the attitude data of the pedal support platform 2 through the gyroscopes 13 to generate a control command set.

The whole can efficiently reproduce the attitude changes and vibration feedback during real skiing, and improve the realism of ski simulation training.

[0046] Furthermore, any one of the two simulated ski training modules includes: a ski pedal body 3, which is connected to the pedal support platform 2; a forefoot assembly, which is located above the ski pedal body 3; a rearfoot assembly, which is located above the ski pedal body 3 and is spaced apart from the forefoot assembly; and a bottom support plate 11, which is located below the ski pedal body 3. The forefoot assembly and the rearfoot assembly are respectively connected to the bottom support plate 11, which can effectively improve the foot fit and stability during simulated ski training.

[0047] Specifically, the forefoot assembly includes: a forefoot support plate 4, with a first pedal positioning slider 17 at the bottom of the forefoot support plate 4; a ski pedal body 3 having a first sliding groove; a bottom support plate 11 having a first pedal positioning groove 18; the first pedal positioning slider 17 being connected to a first pedal mounting screw 20; the first pedal mounting screw 20 passing through the first sliding groove and the first pedal positioning groove 18 in sequence and being threadedly connected to a first pedal mounting nut 19; the first sliding groove and the first pedal positioning groove 18 extending along the width of the ski pedal body 3; and the forefoot support plate 4 being able to slide along the first sliding groove and the first pedal positioning groove 18; and a forefoot fixing assembly located above the forefoot support plate 4, with a portion of the forefoot fixing assembly connected to the forefoot support plate 4.

This allows for flexible movement of the forefoot fixing frame 7, precise adjustment of the distance between the forefoot and rearfoot components, adaptation to different user foot shapes, and simple and stable adjustment operation.

[0049] In this embodiment, the heel support assembly includes: a heel support plate 5, a second pedal positioning slider at the bottom of the heel support plate 5, a second sliding groove in the ski pedal body 3, a second pedal positioning groove in the bottom support plate 11, the second pedal positioning slider being connected to a second pedal mounting screw, the second pedal mounting screw passing through the second sliding groove and the second pedal positioning groove in sequence and being threadedly connected to a second pedal mounting nut, the second sliding groove and the second pedal positioning groove extending along the width of the ski pedal body 3 respectively, and the heel support plate 5 being able to slide along the second sliding groove and the second pedal positioning groove; and a heel fixing bracket 10, located above the heel support plate 5, with a portion of the heel fixing bracket 10 connected to the heel support plate 5, allowing for flexible adjustment and stable support, adapting to different user foot sizes, and providing convenient and stable use.

[0051] The second embodiment of the present invention provides a control method for simulating ski machine pedals based on the first embodiment, comprising:

[0052] Step S1: Attitude data acquisition. Two gyroscopes 13 acquire the attitude data of the pedal support platform 2 under the corresponding simulated ski training module in real time. The attitude data includes the tilt angle, tilt speed and sway amplitude of the pedal support platform 2. The gyroscopes 13 transmit the acquired attitude data to the controller in real time.

[0053] Step S2: Control command generation. After receiving the attitude data transmitted by the two gyroscopes 13, the controller analyzes and processes the data, and generates a corresponding control command set by combining it with the preset vibration parameters of the skiing scene. The control command set includes the control parameters of the start, stop, vibration frequency and vibration amplitude of the vibration simulation motor 15 in the two vibration simulation motor components. The control commands correspond one-to-one with the two simulated skiing training modules to ensure accurate matching between attitude data and vibration feedback.

[0054] Step S3: Vibration response control. The controller transmits the generated control command set to the corresponding two vibration simulation motors 15. After receiving the command, the vibration simulation motor 15 starts to work. Its main shaft drives the drive eccentric wheel 16 to rotate. Vibration is generated by the eccentric rotation of the drive eccentric wheel 16. The vibration simulation motor 15 adjusts the rotation speed according to the control command, thereby adjusting the vibration frequency and amplitude to achieve vibration feedback that matches the posture of the pedal support platform 2, simulating the road vibration feeling during real skiing.

[0055] Step S4: Real-time dynamic adjustment. During the control process, the gyroscope 13 continuously collects the attitude data of the pedal support platform 2 and feeds it back to the controller in real time. The controller dynamically adjusts the control instruction set according to the changes in attitude data and synchronously adjusts the working state of the corresponding vibration simulation motor 15 to ensure that the vibration feedback is always synchronized with the user's skiing posture, thereby enhancing the realism and immersion of the simulated skiing.

[0056] Step S5: Control Termination. When the user stops skiing training, the pedal support platform 2 remains stationary. The attitude data collected by the gyroscope 13 remains within the stationary threshold range. After the controller recognizes this state, it generates a termination control command to control the two vibration simulation motors 15 to stop working, thus completing this control process.

The main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer that plays a control role.
