[0038] Embodiment 1
[0039] See Figures 1-3 , this embodiment provides an upper limb training system, which is characterized by including:
[0040] A training rod 1, and the training rod 1 includes an electronic component circuit for sending a signal based on the user's gripping action;
[0041] A pop-up book 2, and the pop-up book 2 includes a driving device, movable book pages 21 and a microcontroller 22 respectively connected to the driving device. The microcontroller 22 is signal-connected to the training rod 1 and is used to receive the signal sent by the electronic component circuit.
[0042] The upper limb training system proposed in this embodiment is mainly used to help special groups such as athletes, the elderly, or patients in need of rehabilitation to perform upper limb rehabilitation training. In particular, it is beneficial to the recovery process of the patient's hand grasping action. Through the electronic component circuit of the training rod 1, the grasping action of the user can be sensed, making the training more personalized and effective. The movable pages 21 of the pop-up book 2 are controlled by a driving device and can be synchronized with the actions of the training rod 1, providing a training environment for visual and motor coordination for the user;
[0043] Through the electronic component circuit of the training rod 1, the system proposed in this embodiment can send signals according to the user's grasping action, so that the user's grasping ability and rehabilitation progress can be accurately monitored and adjusted. Thus, the function of the system can be extended by adjusting the design of the pop-up book 2 and the settings of the driving device, enabling the user to adapt to different types of upper limb rehabilitation training needs and skill levels, and ultimately achieving personalized rehabilitation training. The microcontroller 22 can display the user's actions through the movable pages 21 of the pop-up book 2 by receiving the signals sent by the training rod 1, providing real-time feedback and visual guidance to help the user better control the actions and progress;
[0044] Therefore, the system proposed in this embodiment combines electronic technology and traditional rehabilitation training tools, which can enhance the user's motivation and sense of participation, making the rehabilitation training more attractive, effectively reducing the user's boredom, and thus improving the effectiveness and persistence of the training.
[0045] Specifically, the training rod 1 includes a rod-shaped main body 11 and a protective sleeve 12 covering the outside of the rod-shaped main body 11. The protective sleeve 12 can prevent the internal electronic component circuit of the training rod 1 from being damaged due to external collision or friction of the rod-shaped main body 11. At the same time, it provides an additional grasping surface for the user, which can reduce the possibility of affecting the training effect due to hand discomfort or pain, and provides additional grasping stability to prevent the training rod 1 from accidentally slipping during use, effectively improving the comfort and stability of the user when holding the training rod 1. In this embodiment, the protective sleeve 12 includes a 3D printed silicone sleeve.
[0046] See Figure 4 , the electronic component circuit includes a switch, a power supply, a communication chip, and a pressure sensor connected in series in sequence. The pressure sensor is also connected in parallel with an accelerometer, a communication module, and a filter. The communication module is signal-connected to the microcontroller 22. Among them, the pressure sensor is used to detect the grip strength and changes when the user holds the training rod 1, the accelerometer is used to detect the movement and posture changes when the user holds the training rod 1, the communication chip is used to process and manage communication protocols and data transmission, the communication module is used to transmit the data collected by the pressure sensor and the accelerometer to the microcontroller 22 of the pop-up book 2, and the filter is used to process the sensor data signal to ensure the accuracy and stability of the signal. In this embodiment, the communication module includes a Bluetooth module.
[0047] Preferably, the pressure sensor includes a conductive sponge 13. The conductive sponge 13 can change the capacitance in the circuit based on the user's gripping action, so that the communication module sends a corresponding signal to the microcontroller 22. In this embodiment, the conductive sponge 13 is arranged in a cylindrical shape inside the rod-shaped main body 11. The cylindrical structure of the conductive sponge 13 can ensure that the conductive sponge 13 can stably change its capacitance when pressure is applied, effectively protecting itself from external environmental interference and physical damage, and helping to accurately capture the subtle changes in the user's gripping action, thereby enhancing the stability and reliability of the electronic component circuit.
[0048] Specifically, referring to Figure 5 , the pop-up book 2 includes a first cover 23 and a second cover 24 that are movably connected. The first cover 23 and the second cover 24 are used to unfold so that the movable pages 21 are exposed on the first cover 23 and the second cover 24; or, they are used to close so that the movable pages 21 are stored between the first cover 23 and the second cover 24. In this embodiment, the movable connection between the first cover 23 and the second cover 24 is achieved through a hinge 25.
[0049] Preferably, the driving device includes a rotatable servo 26 connected to the microcontroller 22. In this embodiment, the servo 26 and the microcontroller 22 are embedded in the first cover 23. The servo 26 is connected to the microcontroller 22 through a wire 27, and the wire 27 is buried inside the first cover 23. Embedding the servo 26 and the microcontroller 22 in the cover does not add extra thickness to the pop-up book 2, does not interfere with the movement of the pages, and will not loosen or be affected by external forces, reducing the risk of their damage or accidental destruction. This can extend the service life of the pop-up book 2, and at the same time ensure that the servo 26 can stably control the movement of the movable pages 21 during operation without affecting the functionality due to unstable position. In addition to using the servo 26 to drive the movable pages 21, in other embodiments, the driving device can also drive the movable pages 21 through a turntable or a spherical rotating shaft 28.
[0050] In this embodiment, the movable pages 21 are made of paper. The bottom surface of the movable pages 21 is connected to the first cover 23 and / or the second cover 24 by adhesion. The servo 26 is connected to the movable pages 21 through a connecting line. Optionally, the connecting line includes a nylon line 29.
[0051] Specifically, the upper limb training system proposed in this embodiment can provide training modes including but not limited to gripping training, pushing training, and rotation training;
[0052] Exemplarily, an image including a pump and a balloon is provided on the page. When the system conducts gripping training, the communication module in the training rod 1 will transmit the grip force data of the user obtained through the pressure sensor to the microcontroller 22 of the pop-up book 2 in real time. The microcontroller 22 will control the servo 26 connected to the movable page 21 according to the received data, so as to drive the pump image on the movable page 21 to perform a pumping action;
[0053] Referring to FIGS. 6(a)-(b) and FIGS. 8(a)-(b), an image including a box, a pushing action, and a pulling action can also be provided on the page. The images of the pushing action and the pulling action can be connected to each other and jointly arranged in the sliding groove 211, or arranged in the sliding groove 211 in a stacked manner by setting them as two layers of images. When the system conducts translation training, the communication module in the training rod 1 will transmit the data of the displacement of the user driving the training rod 1 obtained through the accelerometer to the microcontroller 22 of the pop-up book 2 in real time. The microcontroller 22 will control the servo 26 connected to the movable page 21 according to the received data, so as to drive the box image on the movable page 21 to perform a translation action and correspondingly display the image of the pushing action or the image of the pulling action;
[0054] Referring to FIGS. 8(a)-(b), a shutter mechanism 212 and an eye image can also be provided on the page. When the system conducts rotation training, the communication module in the training rod 1 will transmit the data of the displacement of the user driving the training rod 1 obtained through the accelerometer to the microcontroller 22 of the pop-up book 2 in real time. The microcontroller 22 will control the servo 26 connected to the movable page 21 according to the received data, so as to drive the shutter mechanism 212 on the movable page 21 to change from the closed state to the open state and reveal the eye image hidden under the shutter mechanism 212, or drive the shutter mechanism 212 to change from the open state to the closed state and hide the eye image under the shutter mechanism 212.
[0055] In summary, the present invention proposes an upper limb training system. The solution proposed by the present invention provides an intuitive and highly interactive interaction system, which can send corresponding signals according to the gripping action of the user on the training rod, so that the movable pages of the pop-up book can respond to the user's actions in real time to adjust the training mode or provide feedback, thereby realizing personalized training plans and rehabilitation plans, increasing the user's participation and motivation, and optimizing the user's experience.
