Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of counters, and more specifically to a skipping rope counting device. Background Art

[0002] Rope skipping is a simple and effective form of exercise widely used in physical exercise and fitness activities. Traditionally, the counting of rope skipping is usually done manually by the rope jumper, which may lead to inaccuracy and subjectivity in the counting. Especially in the fast-paced rope skipping exercise, manual counting is prone to errors, which affects the accurate evaluation of the exercise effect.

[0003] In order to solve the problem of manual counting, some automatic counting skipping rope systems have been proposed. Such as Bluetooth skipping rope counters or visual recognition skipping rope counters. However, some existing systems may require specially designed skipping ropes, or require additional sensors or equipment when in use, which limits their versatility and portability. For example, when a Bluetooth skipping rope counter is used, the movement of the rope is detected by detecting the rotation of the handle, and the number of skipping ropes is calculated through a specific algorithm, and then the data is transmitted to the host through Bluetooth or other wireless communication methods. Special design improvements are required for the skipping rope, making this method not suitable for all types of skipping ropes. For example, when a visual recognition skipping rope counter is used, a camera is used for visual recognition to monitor the movement of the subject to count the number of skipping ropes. Based on the sensitivity of the visual recognition system to light conditions and camera angles, visual recognition instability may occur, and such systems require relatively complex hardware support, which limits their ease of use.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for a universal automatic counting rope skipping system that can be applied to all types of rope skipping without the need for special rope skipping equipment. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The present application is further described in detail below by specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Wherein similar elements in different embodiments adopt associated similar element numbers. In the following embodiments, many detailed descriptions are intended to enable the present application to be better understood. However, those skilled in the art can easily recognize that some of the features can be omitted in different situations, or can be replaced by other elements, materials, and methods. In some cases, some operations related to the present application are not shown or described in the specification, in order to avoid the core part of the present application being overwhelmed by too much description, and for those skilled in the art, it is not necessary to describe these related operations in detail, and they can fully understand the related operations based on the description in the specification and the general technical knowledge in the art.

[0027] In addition, the features, operations or characteristics described in the specification can be combined in any appropriate manner to form various implementations, and the operation steps involved in each embodiment can also be replaced or adjusted in a sequence in a manner that is obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the specification and drawings are only for the purpose of clearly describing a certain embodiment and do not mean that the composition and / or sequence are necessary.

[0028] The serial numbers of the components in this document, such as "first", "second", etc., are only used to distinguish the objects described and do not have any order or technical meaning. The "connection" and "coupling" mentioned in this application, unless otherwise specified, include direct and indirect connections (couplings).

[0029] refer to Figure 1-4 The present application provides a skipping rope counting device, including a base 100, a first monitoring component 200, a second monitoring component 300 and a processing module 400, wherein the first monitoring component 200 is arranged on the base 100, and the first monitoring component 200 is used to monitor the movement of the user's feet, the second monitoring component 300 is arranged on the base 100, and the second monitoring component 300 is used to monitor the movement of the skipping rope, and the processing module 400 is electrically connected to the first monitoring component 200 and the second monitoring component 300 respectively.

[0030] Different from the existing manual counting method or the counting method using a single detection device, the present application sets a first monitoring component 200 to monitor the movement of the user's feet, and determines whether the user has performed a jumping action during the skipping process by judging the movement of the feet, such as whether the feet are off the ground. The second monitoring component 300 is set to monitor the movement of the skipping rope to determine whether the skipping rope has performed a rotation (or swing) action during the skipping process. Combining the two as the basis for skipping rope action can not only improve the counting efficiency and counting accuracy, avoid invalid skipping rope actions from being counted in the counting results, but also avoid cheating, such as some people only performing jumping actions or rope turning actions in order to cheat.

[0031] Furthermore, the base 100 is disposed on the ground, and the second monitoring component 300 and the first monitoring component 200 are disposed in parallel on the base 100 .

[0032] In one embodiment, the distance between the first monitoring component 200 and the ground is smaller than the distance between the second monitoring component 300 and the ground, that is, based on the ground, the first monitoring component 200 and the second monitoring component 300 are arranged in parallel at different heights, and the first monitoring component 200 is arranged at the bottom, and the second monitoring component 300 is arranged at the top.

[0033] In another embodiment, the second monitoring component 300 and the first monitoring component 200 are arranged on the base 100 in parallel and on the same plane. In order to avoid mutual influence between the two, there is a certain distance between the first monitoring component 200 and the second monitoring component 300.

[0034] In one embodiment, the first monitoring component 200 includes a first transmitting component 210 and a first receiving component 220, the first transmitting component 210 and the first receiving component 220 are in the same plane, the first transmitting component 210 can transmit a signal with a first frequency, and the first receiving component 220 can receive the signal with the first frequency; the second monitoring component 300 includes a second transmitting component 310 and a second receiving component 320, the second transmitting component 310 and the second receiving component 320 are in the same plane, the second transmitting component 310 can transmit a signal with a second frequency, and the second receiving component 320 can receive the signal with the second frequency.

[0035] Furthermore, in order to avoid mutual interference between the signals received by the first receiving component 220 and the second receiving component 320, the first frequency and the second frequency are different, such as the first frequency is 38K and the second frequency is 56K, which effectively reduces interference between devices and increases the stability and reliability of the test results compared to a single-frequency monitoring system.

[0036] Furthermore, the first monitoring component 200 and the second monitoring component 300 are both infrared monitoring devices, and the first transmitting component 210 and the second transmitting component 310 can transmit infrared signals of different frequencies.

[0037] Specifically, since the first transmitting component 210 can transmit an infrared signal with a first frequency received by the first receiving component 220, and the infrared signal has a certain distance, when the user is jumping and his feet are off the ground, there will be a moment when the infrared signal is connected, so that the first receiving component 220 receives the infrared signal. At this time, it can be considered that the user has performed a jumping action of skipping rope. Similarly, the second transmitting component 310 can transmit an infrared signal with a second frequency received by the second receiving component 320. When the user rotates the skipping rope, the skipping rope will pass through the area of ​​the infrared signal, and there will be a moment when the infrared signal is blocked, so that the second receiving component 320 cannot receive the infrared signal. At this time, it means that the skipping rope rotation action has been performed. When both are satisfied at the same time, it can be known that the user has performed a complete skipping rope action, and the count can be increased by 1 time.

[0038] Of course, in other embodiments, the first monitoring component 200 can be a pressure sensor, which is arranged on the base 100. When the user stands on the base 100 with both feet, the pressure sensor can sense the existence of pressure. When the user jumps with both feet off the ground, the pressure sensor cannot sense the pressure. It can be considered that the user has performed a jumping action of skipping rope. The second monitoring component 300 is an infrared sensor. When the skipping rope rotates to its infrared signal area, the second receiving component 320 cannot receive the infrared signal. At this time, it means that the skipping rope rotation action has been performed. When both conditions are met at the same time, it can be known that the user has performed a complete skipping rope action and the count can be increased by 1 time.

[0039] In one embodiment, a plurality of the second monitoring components 300 are provided, and the plurality of second monitoring components 300 are evenly arranged in a direction perpendicular to a line connecting the second transmitting component 310 and the second receiving component 320, so that the rotation direction of the skipping rope can be determined according to the order or time in which the skipping rope passes through the plurality of second monitoring components 300 in sequence.

[0040] For example, the second monitoring component 300 includes five second monitoring components 300, and the five second monitoring components 300 are evenly arranged in a direction perpendicular to the line connecting the second transmitting component 310 and the second receiving component 320, and the five second monitoring components 300 are arranged in sequence from front to back in the order of second monitoring component A, second monitoring component B, second monitoring component C, second monitoring component D and second monitoring component E. The direction of the skipping rope passing through the second monitoring component A, second monitoring component B, second monitoring component C, second monitoring component D and second monitoring component E in sequence is forward rotation, and the reverse direction is reverse rotation, so as to determine whether the user has performed the skipping rope according to the required action. On the other hand, after the first monitoring component 200 determines that the user's feet have left the ground, it can be determined whether the user has completed a complete skipping rope action by determining whether the skipping rope has passed through the five second monitoring components 300 in sequence. If completed, the count is increased by 1, and if not completed, the action is invalid and not counted.

[0041] In one embodiment, the base 100 includes a first base 110 and a second base 120, the first base 110 and the second base 120 are arranged in parallel, the first transmitting component 210 and the second transmitting component 310 are arranged in the first base 110, and the first receiving component 220 and the second receiving component 320 are arranged in the second base 120.

[0042] During use, the user stands between the first base 110 and the second base 120, and the skipping rope and the user's blocking of the signal are used to determine whether the corresponding action of skipping rope is completed.

[0043] In another embodiment, the base 100 includes a first base 110 and a second base 120, the first base 110 and the second base 120 are arranged in parallel, the first transmitting component 210 is arranged in the first base 110, the first receiving component 220 is arranged in the second base 120, the second transmitting component 310 is arranged above the first base 110, and the second receiving component 320 is arranged above the second base 120.

[0044] In one embodiment, the second monitoring component 300 further includes a plurality of protective shells 330 , wherein the protective shells 330 are disposed above the second base 120 , and the second transmitting component 310 and the second receiving component 320 are disposed in the protective shells 330 in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0045] In one embodiment, the processing module 400 is of the type STM32F103C8T. The processing module 400 can comprehensively analyze the infrared signal emitted by the first transmitting component 210 when the first infrared monitoring component detects that the user's feet are off the ground through the built-in algorithm. At this time, it can be determined that the user has jumped. When the infrared signal emitted by the second transmitting component 310 in the second infrared monitoring component is blocked by the skipping rope, it can be determined that the skipping rope has passed. When multiple second infrared monitoring components are set, an infrared network can be formed. When the skipping rope passes through a certain point and blocks the above infrared network in turn, it is determined that the skipping rope has rotated one circle. Through the order of the skipping rope blocking or the blocking time of multiple nodes, it can be determined whether the skipping rope is rotating forward or reverse, and then the feet are off the ground to determine whether the correct direction of the rope has passed, thereby accurately calculating the number of skipping ropes.

[0046] Furthermore, it also includes a wireless module (not shown in the figure), and the processing module 400 is electrically connected to the first monitoring component 200 and the second monitoring component 300 respectively through the wireless module, and various data information can be transmitted to the processing module 400 through the wireless module.

[0047] In order to further improve the convenience of use, a display module (display screen) may also be provided. The processing module 400 may display the processed counting results through the display module, so that the user or the invigilator can view them conveniently.

[0048] The utility model realizes the rotation of the skipping rope and the judgment of whether the user's feet are off the ground through the combination of the first monitoring component 200 and the second monitoring component 300, thereby completing the judgment of a skipping rope, and does not need to improve the existing skipping rope. It is suitable for all types of skipping ropes, has strong applicability, reduces the cost of purchasing special skipping ropes, and reduces unnecessary expenditure costs. At the same time, the design of the application is simple, and when used, it only needs to be placed on the ground, and the user can perform the skipping rope action in the placement area, without excessive operation, and is easy to use.

[0049] The above specific examples are used to illustrate the present invention, which are only used to help understand the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art of the present invention, some simple deductions, deformations or substitutions can be made based on the idea of ​​the present invention.
