AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the existing comprehensive tension trainer, the labor-saving principle of moving pulleys leads to the tension output being only half the weight of the counterweight block. In order to achieve a larger tension output, more counterweight blocks need to be configured, which increases production and transportation costs and makes the trainer bulky and inconvenient to move.

Method used

A tension switching device is designed, by setting a detachable connecting connector and a moving pulley to switch the output tension of the counterweight block. When the connector is connected to the pull rod, the tension output by the counterweight block is equal to its own gravity; when the connector is disconnected from the pull rod, the tension is equal to half of its own gravity.

Benefits of technology

With the same training tension requirements, the number of counterweight blocks in the required configuration is reduced, the production and transportation costs of the trainer are reduced, and the trainer is lighter and easier to move.

[0036] A rope is wound around the moving pulley 2, one side of the rope of the moving pulley 2 is connected to a handle, and the rope on the other side of the moving pulley 2 sequentially passes around the upper fixed pulley 8 and the lower fixed pulley 4 and then is fixed on the connecting member A 5. The connecting member A 5 is movable, and a support member 103 is provided below the connecting member A 5. The support member 103 is fixed to the lower part of the frame 1 and is used to limit the lower limit position of the connecting member A 5; the connecting member A 5 is detachably connected to the moving pulley 2.

[0037] In this embodiment, two guide shafts 101 are fixed on the frame 1. The two guide shafts are arranged in parallel, and the counterweight 3 is slidably connected to the guide shafts 101; a pull rod A 9 is suspended below the moving pulley 2, and the counterweight 3 is detachably connected to the moving pulley 2 through the pull rod A 9; the connecting member A 5 is detachably connected to the moving pulley 2 through the pull rod A 9.

[0038] The connecting member A 5 includes an inner core 502 and an outer cylinder 501. The outer cylinder 501 is sleeved outside the inner core 502 and is fixedly connected to the inner core 502; the inner core 502 is fixedly connected to the end of the rope.

[0039] A boss 5011 is provided on the inner wall of the outer cylinder 501. A groove 901 that matches the boss 5011 is provided at the bottom of the pull rod A9. The groove 901 is in an inverted L shape, and the long side of the groove 901 communicates with the end position of the pull rod A9. Align the boss 5011 on the outer cylinder 501 with the groove 901 on the pull rod A9 and insert it, then rotate the outer cylinder 501 to connect the pull rod A9 with the connector A5. A number of counterweight connection holes 902 are provided on the pull rod A9. A through hole runs through the side of the counterweight 3. The position of the counterweight connection hole 902 corresponds to the position of the through hole of the counterweight 3.

Insert the pin shaft through the through hole of the counterweight 3 and through the counterweight connection hole 902 on the pull rod A9 to connect the pull rod A9 with the counterweight 3.

[0040] After the rope on the side of the movable pulley 2 close to the force application extends upward, it bypasses a plurality of fixed pulleys and finally connects to the handle. The handle is limited by the flying bird sliding sleeve 7. The flying bird sliding sleeve 7 is rotatably connected to the sliding sleeve connector 6 to adapt to the change of the force application direction. The sliding sleeve connector 6 is slidably arranged on the adjusting longitudinal beam 104 of the frame body 1. The adjusting longitudinal beam 104 is a square tube profile.

[0041] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows:

[0042] When the user needs the pulling force output by the counterweight 3 to be equal to half of its own gravity, it is necessary to separate the pull rod A9 from the connector A5. As Figure 13 shown, at this time, the pulling force that the user needs to apply is F1, and the gravity G of the counterweight 3 = F1 + F2, that is, the sum of the pulling forces on both sides of the movable pulley 2, and F1 = F2. Therefore, the pulling force at the handle end is half of the gravity of the counterweight 3.

[0043] When the user needs the pulling force output by the counterweight 3 to be equal to its own gravity, it is necessary to connect the pull rod A9 with the connector A5. As Figure 14 shown, at this time, the pulling force that the user needs to apply is F3, F3 + F4 = G + F5. Because F4 and F5 are the pulling forces on the same rope, they are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. Therefore, G = F3. At this time, the pulling force at the handle end is equal to the gravity of the counterweight 3.
