Technical Field

[0001] This utility model specifically relates to an intelligent electronic grip strength meter. Background Technology

[0002] A hand grip dynamometer is a commonly used tool in rehabilitation training, physical exercise, and medical testing. It is primarily used to measure the strength of the muscles in the human hand and can assist in assessing the recovery of upper limb function. Traditional mechanical hand grip dynamometers typically use a spring compression structure with a dial for reading. While simple in structure and inexpensive, they suffer from low reading accuracy, inability to record the number of operations, and inconvenient adjustments, making it difficult to meet the demands of modern rehabilitation medicine and personalized fitness training for data-driven and intelligent equipment.

[0003] With the development of electronic sensing and intelligent control technologies, some electronic hand grip dynamometers equipped with pressure sensors have emerged in recent years. However, existing electronic hand grip dynamometers still have certain limitations in their structural design. For example, the elastic components and transmission mechanisms are exposed, posing a risk of pinching injuries; the grip strength adjustment methods are complex or non-adjustable, making it difficult to adapt to the needs of different user groups; some products lack intuitive feedback mechanisms, and the adjustment process relies on experience-based judgment, affecting measurement accuracy; in addition, the human-computer interaction is relatively simple, lacking a visual interface and multi-functional switching capabilities, which limits their convenience and applicability in practical applications.

[0004] This utility model was developed precisely because of the aforementioned shortcomings. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a safer and more convenient intelligent electronic grip strength meter.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model provides an intelligent electronic hand grip strength meter, including a housing, which includes a barrel and a handle connected to the barrel for gripping. A support rod is provided inside the barrel, with an elastic element sleeved in the middle of the support rod. A front support member is connected to the front of the support rod for pressing against the elastic element, and a rear support member is connected to the rear of the support rod for axial sliding and compressing the elastic element. A finger grip handle is connected to the housing, with a handle portion rotatably connected to the housing in the middle, a handle portion for gripping in the lower part, and a rear support member connected to the upper part. This allows the handle portion to push the rear support member to compress the elastic element when it moves towards the handle. The handle is provided with a pressure detection component that detects the pressing pressure when the handle portion moves towards the handle. The housing contains a control module connected to the pressure detection component for collecting pressing pressure data or pressing frequency data, and a display module electrically connected to the control module for displaying the data collected by the control module.

[0008] As described above, the intelligent electronic grip strength meter also includes an adjustment mechanism on the barrel for pushing the front support member to move axially to compress the elastic member, thereby adjusting the elastic force of the elastic member in its initial state.

[0009] As described above, in the intelligent electronic hand grip strength meter, the support rod is rotatably connected to the barrel, and the adjustment mechanism includes a knob located at the front end of the barrel and capable of axial rotation. The knob has a polygonal hole with a length along the length of the support rod, and the support rod has a polygonal segment that is inserted into the polygonal hole and matches the shape of the polygonal hole, so that the support rod can be rotated when the knob is rotated. The front support member and the support rod are connected by a thread.

[0010] As described above, the intelligent electronic grip strength meter has a sliding slot on the inner wall of the barrel, a limiting protrusion that inserts into the sliding slot on the front support member, and an observation window on the barrel that communicates with the sliding slot so that the limiting protrusion in the sliding slot can be observed from the outside.

[0011] As described above, the intelligent electronic grip strength meter has an end cap on the knob, and the end cap has a rotation direction indicator.

[0012] As described above, the intelligent electronic grip strength meter has a transparent cover plate connected to the barrel for sealing the observation window and allowing light to pass through.

[0013] As described above, the intelligent electronic grip strength meter has a pressing component on the side of the handle near the grip, and the pressure detection component includes a pressure sensor disposed inside the handle and a pressure receiving component connected to the pressure sensor, with the end of the pressure receiving component exposed for the pressing component to press against.

[0014] As described above, the intelligent electronic grip strength meter has a limiting rod on the rear support and a strip hole on the upper part of the finger grip for the end of the limiting rod to be inserted and slid.

[0015] As described above, in the intelligent electronic grip strength meter, the display module is located at the rear end of the barrel, and a touch button module is also connected to the display module.

[0016] As described above, the intelligent electronic hand grip strength meter has a mounting base fixedly connected inside the barrel. The mounting base has mounting holes for a support rod to pass through. The rear end of the support rod is inserted into the mounting hole, and the rear end of the support rod has an annular groove. The mounting base has two mounting rods that pass through the mounting holes and are engaged in the annular grooves.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0018] 1. The compact and safe structure enhances reliability and portability. This utility model of intelligent electronic hand grip strength meter integrates core components such as elastic elements, support rods, and front and rear support elements inside the barrel. The overall structure is reasonable and compact, which not only effectively reduces the size of the device, making it easy to carry and store, but also avoids the risk of pinching caused by exposed external moving parts, significantly improving the safety and service life of the product.

[0019] 2. Dual-mode intelligent detection, versatile and highly adaptable: The device features both force measurement and counting modes. It collects user grip force data in real time via a pressure sensor and performs precise calculations based on the initial elastic force of the elastic element, meeting measurement needs in various application scenarios. It also supports exercise frequency statistics, making it suitable for rehabilitation training, fitness exercises, and other applications, with excellent personalization capabilities.

[0020] 3. Adjustable resistance + visual feedback enhances user experience and ease of operation. The grip resistance can be infinitely adjusted through the knob-linked thread structure, allowing users to flexibly adjust the initial grip strength according to their own strength level or training stage. Combined with the observation window and limit protrusion design, the adjustment process is visualized, which facilitates accurate positioning and calibration, improves the intuitiveness of operation and measurement accuracy, and the rotation direction indicator on the end cap further optimizes the human-computer interaction experience.

[0028] The utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0029] The orientations described in this utility model specification, such as "up," "down," "left," "right," "front," and "back," are based on the orientations in the accompanying drawings and are intended to facilitate the description of the relationships between the various components. They do not indicate the unique or absolute positional relationships between the various components, but are merely one embodiment of the utility model and are not a limitation on its implementation.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] This embodiment provides an intelligent electronic grip strength meter, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the intelligent electronic hand grip strength meter includes a housing 1, which includes a barrel 11 and a handle 12 connected to the barrel 11 for gripping. A support rod 2 is provided inside the barrel 11. An elastic element 3 is sleeved in the middle of the support rod 2. A front support member 4 is connected to the front of the support rod 2 for abutting against the elastic element 3. A rear support member 5 is connected to the rear of the support rod 2, which can slide axially to compress the elastic element 3.

[0032] In this embodiment, the elastic element 3 is a spring sleeved on the support rod 2, but alternative structures with elasticity, such as a rubber sleeve, can also be used. A finger grip handle 6 is connected to the housing 1. The middle part of the finger grip handle 6 is rotatably connected to the housing 1, the lower part has a handle portion 61 for hand gripping, and the upper part is connected to the rear support member 5, so that when the handle portion 61 moves towards the handle 12, it can push the rear support member 5 to compress the elastic element 3.

[0033] During operation, the user holds the handle 12 with one hand and flicks the handle 61 with their fingers, causing the finger grip handle 6 to rotate around its center. This causes the upper push support 5 to slide along the axis of the support rod 2 and compress the elastic element 3 (such as a spring), thus simulating the process of grip strength training.

[0034] To ensure that the finger grip handle 6 does not interfere with the sliding of the rear support member 5 during rotation, a limiting rod 51 is provided on the rear support member 5, and a strip-shaped hole 63 is provided on the upper part of the finger grip handle 6 for the end of the limiting rod 51 to be inserted and slid. This structure ensures the degree of freedom of movement of the rear support member 5 during the compression of the elastic member 3, while avoiding jamming or misalignment caused by the swinging of the handle 6.

[0035] The handle 12 is provided with a pressure detection component 7 that can detect the pressing pressure of the handle 61 when it approaches the handle 61. The housing 1 is provided with a control module 81 connected to the pressure detection component 7 and used to collect pressing pressure data or pressing number data, and a display module 82 electrically connected to the control module 81 and used to display the data collected by the control module 81.

[0036] Specifically, in force measurement mode, the system calculates the sum of the actual pressure value F2 detected by the pressure detection component 7 and the elastic force value F1 of the elastic element 3 in its current state as the grip force applied by the user; while in counting mode, the pressure sensor 71 determines whether a valid pressing action has occurred and counts the total number of operations. In this way, the system achieves the switching between grip force measurement and exercise count statistics.

[0037] A battery cell is installed in the handle 12 to provide power and a stable power supply for the entire system. This structural design not only accommodates key mechanical components such as the elastic element 3, support rod 2, front support element 4, and rear support element 5 inside the barrel 11, improving the overall compactness and aesthetics, but also effectively avoids the risk of pinching injuries that may be caused by exposed moving parts, thus enhancing the product's safety.

[0038] Preferably, to facilitate user operation, the display module 82 is located at the rear end of the barrel 11, allowing users to view data information while holding the device. The display module 82 is also connected to a touch button module 83, enabling users to perform operations such as mode switching, data clearing, and unit selection via touch, enhancing the human-computer interaction experience of the device.

[0039] As a preferred implementation method, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the barrel 11 is also equipped with an adjustment mechanism 9 for pushing the front support member 4 to move axially and thus compressing the elastic member 3, thereby adjusting the elastic force of the elastic member 3 in its initial state. Through this adjustment mechanism 9, users can adjust the initial resistance of grip strength training according to their own needs to adapt to different people or different training stages.

[0040] In detail, the support rod 2 is rotatably connected to the barrel 11. The adjustment mechanism 9 includes a knob 91 located at the front end of the barrel 11 and capable of axial rotation. The knob 91 has a polygonal hole 911 with a length along the length of the support rod 2. The support rod 2 has a polygonal segment 21 that inserts into the polygonal hole 911 and matches the shape of the polygonal hole 911. When the knob 91 is rotated, it can drive the support rod 2 to rotate synchronously. Since the front support member 4 and the support rod 2 are connected by a thread, the rotation of the support rod 2 will push the front support member 4 to move axially through the thread structure, thereby adjusting the compression degree of the spring in its initial state. Through this mechanism, the user can flexibly adjust the initial resistance of the grip strength meter to meet personalized training needs.

[0041] As a further optimization, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the inner wall of the barrel 11 is provided with a sliding slot 13, and the front support member 4 is provided with a limiting protrusion 41 that inserts into the sliding slot 13. This structure can improve the stability of the front support member 4 during axial sliding, preventing it from deflecting or shaking. On the other hand, the barrel 11 has an observation window 14 that communicates with the sliding slot 13 and allows external observation. The user can visually see the position change of the limiting protrusion 41 through this window, thereby understanding the sliding state of the front support member 4 and the compression of the spring. This visual adjustment method helps the user quickly locate the appropriate resistance level, and in measurement mode, it also helps to restore the front support member 4 to the standard initial position, thereby ensuring the consistency and accuracy of the measurement results.

[0042] As a preferred option, such as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the knob 91 is provided with an end cap 92, and the end cap 92 is provided with a rotation direction mark 921, so that the user can intuitively identify the relationship between the rotation direction of the knob 91 and its influence on grip force (for example: clockwise increases resistance, counterclockwise decreases resistance), thereby improving the ease of operation and user experience.

[0043] As another preferred option, such as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the barrel 11 is connected to a transparent cover 15 for covering the observation window 14 and allowing light to pass through. This protects the internal structure from dust contamination or accidental damage, while not preventing the user from observing the status of the limiting protrusion 41 through the window.

[0044] To be more specific, such as Figures 2 to 5As shown, the handle portion 61 has a pressing element 62 on the side near the handle 12. The pressure detection assembly 7 includes a pressure sensor 71 disposed inside the handle 12. The pressure sensor 71 is connected to the handle 12 by fasteners and is connected to the pressure receiving element 72. The end of the pressure receiving element 72 is exposed for the pressing element 62 to press against. When the user presses down on the handle portion 61, the pressing element 62 pushes the pressure receiving element 72, causing it to contact and press against the pressure sensor 71, thereby completing one grip force acquisition action.

[0045] Preferably, to ensure the installation stability of the support rod 2 within the barrel 11 while retaining its rotational freedom, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a mounting base 16 is fixedly connected inside the barrel 11. The mounting base 16 has a mounting hole 161 for the support rod 2 to pass through. The rear end of the support rod 2 is inserted into the mounting hole 161, and an annular groove 22 is provided at its end. The mounting base 16 has two mounting rods 17 that pass through the mounting hole 161 and are engaged in the annular groove 22. This structure enables reliable fixing and smooth rotation of the support rod 2.

[0046] Example 2

[0047] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment one is that this embodiment does not include a battery cell compartment 18, such as... Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, a storage battery 19 for powering electronic components is built into the housing 1, and a corresponding charging interface is provided on the housing 1 to realize the charging function.

[0048] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of this utility model, and common knowledge regarding specific structures and characteristics is not elaborated upon here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the structure of this utility model, and these should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. These modifications will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of this utility model or the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed in this application shall be determined by the content of its claims, and the specific embodiments described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
