Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of muscle strength testing, in particular to a gantry structure for linear isokinetic muscle strength testing. Background Technique

[0002] Skeletal muscle is the muscle attached to the bones. Skeletal muscle not only plays a role in maintaining the human body posture and assisting movement, but also has functions such as sugar storage and endocrine. When skeletal muscle atrophies, it will not only reduce the motor function, but also easily cause metabolic diseases such as diabetes. For people who do not often participate in sports, the muscle mass peaks at about 20-25 years old, and then gradually decreases with the increase of age, and the motor ability will also gradually decline accordingly. Therefore, many people are carrying out exercise training aimed at increasing muscle mass in order to maintain or improve their motor ability.

[0003] Resistance strength training is an important method to exercise and improve the human skeletal muscle mass. However, it is not that as long as resistance strength training is carried out, the skeletal muscle mass can be increased. Among the training elements that stimulate skeletal muscle growth, mobilizing fast-twitch muscles that are easy to thicken is a necessary condition. Therefore, the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) once pointed out that when performing traditional resistance training, only an intensity of ≥70% 1RM can promote muscle hypertrophy. In addition, the human body realizes movement through the contraction of skeletal muscles that span the bones on both sides of the joint. Since skeletal muscles can only exert force in one direction and belong to linear force, while the movement of joints belongs to rotational movement, from a biomechanical perspective, when the human joints are at different angles, the forces exerted will be very different. For example, in the squatting and standing up movement, with the change of the lower limb joint angle, the maximum force shows a large difference. That is to say, in the weight-bearing squatting exercise aimed at increasing muscle mass, a certain weight-bearing may be the best muscle-building load weight when the knee joint is in deep squat, but the load will be too small when in shallow squat. If we want to exercise all the muscles of the quadriceps femoris through the squatting method, we need to measure the maximum force at different knee joint angles and train separately at different knee joint angles. This will not only consume a lot of physical strength, but also bear a great risk of injury during the process of measuring the maximum force.

[0004] In addition, eccentric training is also an important training method for rapid muscle gain and strength improvement. Eccentric training refers to the method of lengthening the muscle while it is exerting force. Research has confirmed that in eccentric training, fast-twitch muscle fibers that are prone to thickening are preferentially mobilized, and each muscle fiber can generate a force 1.5 - 1.8 times that of the maximum isometric contraction. Therefore, eccentric training can achieve the goal of rapid muscle gain. When performing eccentric training, it is not necessary to use a large amount of force or explosive force to obtain results. Instead, slowly lengthening the muscle while exerting force is more effective. In traditional resistance eccentric training, the speed often needs to be controlled by oneself, and the load weight is constant. As mentioned above, at different joint angles, the muscles mobilized and the strength exerted are not the same. If a barbell with a constant weight is used, the desired training effect cannot be obtained. Therefore, if there is a device that can quickly measure the maximum strength at different joint angles under the condition of ensuring safety, and can change the load size throughout the process during the change of joint angles to achieve linear isokinetic testing, it can not only greatly improve the targeted effect of muscle gain, but also reduce the risk of injury.
