Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fitness equipment technology, and in particular to an intelligent fitness belt. Background Technology
[0002] With technological advancements, solutions have emerged that utilize resistance generated by a drive motor for fitness. For example, Chinese utility model patent CN202322853458.9 discloses a fitness device comprising a fixed base, a motor, an electronic control module, a tension rope, an elastic rope, and a tension mechanism. The electronic control module is electrically connected to the motor, which is fixed to the fixed base, generating controllable resistance. One end of the elastic rope is connected to the fixed base, and the other end is wound around the motor rotor. One end of the tension rope is wound around the motor rotor without contacting the elastic rope, and the other end is connected to the tension mechanism. The direction in which the tension rope is wound around the motor rotor is opposite to the direction in which the elastic rope is wound around the motor rotor. The tension mechanism allows the user to pull back and forth. The user can connect to the electronic module via a mobile app, setting parameters to generate appropriate torque on the drive motor. The user then pulls the rotor with the tension rope to resist this torque, thus exercising.
[0003] However, the fitness equipment described in this plan needs to be fixed in a certain location, which requires a lot of space and cannot meet the needs of users to exercise in different scenarios. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an intelligent fitness belt to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option or create conditions.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] First, this utility model provides an intelligent fitness belt, comprising:
[0007] The belt is looped, with its inner loop connecting to the user's waist;
[0008] The resistance band includes a drive motor, an electronic control module, and a resistance rope. The drive motor is connected to a waist belt and located on one side of the outer ring of the waist belt. The axis of the drive motor is perpendicular to the outer ring surface of the waist belt. The drive motor is electrically connected to the electronic control module. One end of the resistance rope is connected to the rotor of the motor, and the tension direction of the resistance rope is perpendicular to the axis of the drive motor. The resistance band can be used in one or two ways. When using one resistance band, the user can exercise with one hand; when using two resistance bands, the user can exercise with both hands simultaneously.
[0009] The intelligent fitness belt provided in this solution connects the resistance band to the belt, allowing users to wear the belt for exercise anytime, anywhere, without taking up excessive space. When the user operates the belt, the control module drives the motor to generate power to wind the resistance band. The user pulls the resistance band, preventing it from being wound by the motor's rotor. The user performs work to overcome the motor's torque, thus achieving the purpose of exercise. Compared to existing technologies, this embodiment uses a connecting bracket to connect the motor to the belt, offering greater convenience and eliminating the need to fix the resistance band in one place.
[0010] It should be explained that in existing fitness solutions using drive motors, the torque generated by the motors ranges from 30 kg to 120 kg. One solution uses a drive motor that can generate 30 kg of torque, with dimensions of 185 mm long, 120 mm wide, and 50 mm high. Therefore, even if a smaller drive motor is used to compromise on portability, as long as the motor's torque is appropriate and paired with a suitable length of resistance band, the torque generated by the drive motor can still meet fitness needs. The drive motor can be a small brushless motor, a geared motor, etc.
[0011] There are various control methods for using a drive motor to generate torque for fitness. One method involves controlling the torque output of the drive motor through an electronic control module to adjust its resistance. At startup, the resistance cable is wound up. When the user performs a stretching motion, the cable is pulled out, and the drive motor provides pre-set force feedback. Once the user has fully straightened the cable and performs a retraction motion, the drive motor rewinds the cable until the next stretch. The electronic control module also controls the speed and number of rotations of the drive motor to prevent it from running continuously during winding, which would make operation difficult for the user.
[0012] As an extension of the above solution, the tensioner also includes a housing and a connecting seat. The drive motor is connected to the connecting seat, the connecting seat is connected to the belt, one end of the tension rope is connected to the housing, the housing is fixedly connected to the rotor of the drive motor, and the housing and the rotor of the drive motor rotate coaxially.
[0013] In this design, the resistance rope is first connected to the housing, and the housing is fixedly connected to the rotor of the drive motor and rotates coaxially with the housing. This allows the resistance rope to be wound up by the housing when the drive motor rotates. Compared to directly connecting the resistance rope to the rotor of the drive motor, this design improves the connection stability between the resistance rope and the drive motor. It is conceivable that, to meet the requirements of portability, the drive motor is relatively small. In this case, the connection between the resistance rope and the rotor of the drive motor may not be very stable, and slippage may occur, causing the resistance device to malfunction. However, with the addition of the housing, the housing is rotatably connected to the rotor and rotates coaxially with the rotor of the drive motor. Firstly, this increases the contact area between the resistance rope and the rotor of the drive motor, thereby increasing friction and improving connection stability. Secondly, after installing the housing, when the drive motor is not running, it is easier to rotate the rotor of the drive motor through the housing, facilitating the adjustment of the angle of the resistance rope to meet the user's different fitness posture needs.
[0014] As an extension of the above solution, the number of resistance bands is two. The two resistance bands can be positioned symmetrically or asymmetrically on the waist belt, depending on the user's exercise movements. By setting two resistance bands, the user's need to exercise both hands simultaneously can be met.
[0015] As an extension of the above solution, the electronic control module is housed within the housing. This arrangement allows for a more compact overall product design.
[0016] As an extension of the above solution, the waist belt includes an outer layer and an inner layer, which are partially sewn together to form several identical, interconnected interlayers. The connecting seat is connected to the outer layer, and the connecting seat is partially located within the interlayers. This arrangement gives the waist belt two layers, with the tensioner primarily connected to the outer layer. The connecting seat, cushioned by the inner layer, avoids discomfort and ensures comfort.
[0017] As an extension of the above solution, the connecting seat includes a panel and a base plate. One side of the panel is fixedly connected to the housing, and the other side of the panel has a protruding rotating seat and a slot. The rotating seat is located on the upper part of the panel, and the slot is located on the lower part of the panel. One side of the base plate has a protruding first connecting part and a second connecting part. The first connecting part is rotatably connected to the rotating seat, and the second connecting part is inserted into the slot. A space is formed between the rotating seat, the slot, the panel, and the base plate, allowing the surface layer to pass through. This arrangement makes the connection between the housing and the panel more stable and improves ease of use. In use, the second connecting part is pried out of the slot, causing the base plate to rotate around the rotating seat. Then, the desired compartment in the belt is inserted, and the second connecting part is inserted into the slot. This arrangement allows the user to more easily adjust the position of the tensioner on the belt. As those skilled in the art will understand, the insertion of the second connecting part into the slot is an interference fit. The base plate and the panel clamp the surface layer, and the user's pulling force is not perpendicular to the panel. Therefore, the user will not separate the base plate from the panel when pulling the pull cord. The slot refers to two parallel protrusions on the lower part of the panel, and the space defined by the two protrusions is adapted to the shape of the second connecting part.
[0018] As an extension of the above solution, a protrusion is provided on the panel between the rotating seat and the slot. By providing a protrusion at this location, the friction between the panel and the surface layer can be increased, minimizing the possibility of the tensioner sliding relative to the surface layer during use.
[0019] As an extension of the above solution, the height H1 of the inner layer is greater than the height H2 of the connector. Since the connector contacts the human body through the inner layer, when the height of the inner layer is greater than the height of the connector, it can prevent the connector from contacting the human body in certain situations, further avoiding any discomfort or discomfort.
[0020] As an extension of the above solution, a smart fitness belt also includes a grip, which is connected to the other end of the resistance band. This design improves the user's grip comfort.
[0021] As an extension of the above solution, the grip includes a handle and a pull ring. One end of the pull ring is open, and the other end is closed. Both sides of the open end of the pull ring are connected to the handle. The end of the tension rope is connected to a connecting ring. The connecting ring has a through hole, and a horseshoe buckle is connected to the pull ring. This design allows the tension rope to be separated from the grip for easy assembly and disassembly. Furthermore, the connecting ring includes a connector and a connecting ring body. The connector is rotatably connected to the connecting ring body, and the connector is fixedly connected to the end of the tension rope. The connecting ring is connected to the horseshoe buckle. This design prevents the tension rope from twisting when the grip is rotated.
[0022] The intelligent fitness belt provided by this invention allows users to exercise without being confined to a specific location. Furthermore, the belt is comfortable to wear and allows for easy adjustment of the resistance bands to accommodate different exercise postures. This intelligent fitness belt belongs to the field of fitness equipment technology and can be applied to fitness activities in various scenarios. Attached Figure Description

[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The following are several embodiments of an intelligent fitness belt according to the present invention.
[0034] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a smart fitness belt includes:
[0035] The belt 100 is in the shape of a ring, with its inner loop connected to the user's waist;
[0036] The tensioner 200 includes a drive motor 207, an electronic control module 208, and a tension rope 203. The drive motor 207 is connected to the waist belt 100 and is located on one side of the outer ring of the waist belt 100. The axis of the drive motor 207 is perpendicular to the outer ring surface of the waist belt 100. The drive motor 207 is electrically connected to the electronic control module 208. One end of the tension rope 203 is connected to the rotor of the drive motor 207. The straightening direction of the tension rope 203 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the drive motor 207.
[0037] The number of resistance bands 200 can be one or two. When using one resistance band 200, the user can exercise with one hand; when using two resistance bands 200, the user can exercise with both hands simultaneously. The smart fitness belt provided in this embodiment connects the resistance bands 200 to the belt 100, allowing the user to wear the belt 100 anytime and anywhere for exercise without occupying excessive space. When the user operates the belt, the control module 208 can power the drive motor 207 to wind up the resistance rope 203. The user pulls the resistance rope 203, preventing it from being wound by the rotor of the drive motor 207. The user then performs work to overcome the torque of the motor, thus achieving the purpose of exercise. Compared to existing technologies, this embodiment uses a connecting bracket 201 to connect the drive motor 207 to the belt 100, offering greater convenience and eliminating the need to fix the resistance bands 200 in one place.
[0038] It should be explained that in existing fitness solutions using drive motor 207, the torque generated by the motor ranges from 30 kg to 120 kg. One solution uses a drive motor that can generate 30 kg of torque, with dimensions of 185 mm long, 120 mm wide, and 50 mm high. Therefore, even if a smaller motor is used to compromise on portability, as long as the motor torque is appropriate and paired with a suitable length resistance band, the torque generated by the drive motor 207 can still meet fitness needs. The drive motor 207 can be a small brushless motor, a geared motor, etc.
[0039] There are several specific control methods for using the torque generated by the drive motor 207 for fitness. One method involves controlling the torque output of the drive motor 207 through the electronic control module 208 to adjust its resistance. At the start of operation, the resistance rope 203 is wound up. When the user performs a stretching motion, pulling out the resistance rope 203, the drive motor 207 provides the user with a pre-set force feedback. When the user fully straightens the resistance rope 203 and then performs a retraction motion, the drive motor 207 rewinds the rope until the user performs the next stretch. The electronic control module 208 also controls the rotation speed and number of rotations of the drive motor 207 to prevent it from continuously rotating during winding, which would make it impossible for the user to operate.
[0040] In some embodiments, the tensioner 200 further includes a housing 202 and a connecting seat 201. The drive motor 207 is connected to the connecting seat 201, the connecting seat 201 is connected to the waist belt 100, one end of the tension rope 203 is connected to the housing 202, the housing 202 is fixedly connected to the rotor of the drive motor 207, and the housing 202 and the rotor of the drive motor 207 rotate coaxially.
[0041] In this embodiment, the tension rope 203 is first connected to the housing 202, and the housing 202 is fixedly connected to the rotor of the drive motor 207 and rotates coaxially with the housing 202. This allows the tension rope 203 to be wound up by the housing 202 when the drive motor 207 rotates. Compared to the tension rope 203 being directly connected to the rotor of the drive motor 207, this arrangement improves the connection stability between the tension rope 203 and the drive motor 207. It is conceivable that, in order to meet the requirements of portability, the size of the drive motor 207 is relatively small. At this time, the connection between the tension rope 203 and the rotor of the drive motor 207 may not be so stable, and slippage may occur between the tension rope 203 and the rotor of the drive motor 207, causing the tensioner 200 to fail to work properly. However, after adding the housing 202, the housing 202 is fixedly connected to the rotor and rotates coaxially with the rotor of the drive motor 207. First, it is equivalent to increasing the contact area between the tension rope 203 and the rotor of the drive motor 207, thereby increasing the friction and improving the connection stability. Second, after installing the housing 202, when the drive motor 207 is not running, it is easier to rotate the rotor of the drive motor 207 through the housing 202, making it easier to adjust the angle of the tension rope 203 to meet the user's different fitness posture needs.
[0042] In order to meet the user's need to exercise both hands at the same time, there are two resistance bands 200. The two resistance bands 200 can be positioned symmetrically or asymmetrically on the waist belt 100, depending on the user's exercise movements.
[0043] To meet the needs of users to exercise anytime and anywhere, the smart fitness waist needs to take into account the issue of portability. In order to make the entire product more compact, the electronic control module 208 is located inside the housing 202.
[0044] In some embodiments, considering that the smart fitness belt is worn by the user, if the connecting seat 201 directly contacts the body, it may cause discomfort during exercise. Therefore, the belt 100 can be configured to include a surface layer 101 and an inner layer 102, with the surface layer 101 and the inner layer 102 partially sewn together to form several identical, interconnected interlayers 103. The connecting seat 201 is connected to the surface layer 101, and the connecting seat 201 is partially located within the interlayers 103. Furthermore, the height H1 of the inner layer 102 is greater than the height H2 of the connecting seat 201.
[0045] This design gives the waist belt 100 two layers. The inner layer cushions the connecting seat 201, preventing it from feeling uncomfortable and ensuring comfort. Furthermore, since the connecting seat 201 contacts the body through the inner layer 102, when the height of the inner layer 102 is greater than the height of the connecting seat 201, it can prevent the connecting seat 201 from contacting the body in certain extreme situations, further avoiding discomfort.
[0046] In this embodiment, the connecting seat 201 includes a panel 2011 and a base plate 2012. One side of the panel 2011 is fixedly connected to the housing 202. The other side of the panel 2011 is provided with a protruding rotating seat 20111 and a slot 20112. The rotating seat 20111 is located on the upper part of the panel 2011, and the slot 20112 is located on the lower part of the panel 2011. One side of the base plate 2012 is provided with a protruding first connecting part 20121 and a second connecting part 20122. The first connecting part 20121 is rotatably connected to the rotating seat 20111, and the second connecting part 20122 is inserted into the slot 20112. A space is formed between the rotating seat 20111, the slot 20112, the panel 2011, and the base plate 2012, allowing the surface layer 101 to pass through.
[0047] This design makes the connection between the tensioner 200 and the panel 2011 more secure and improves ease of use. In use, the second connecting part 20122 is pried out of the slot 20112, causing the base plate 2012 to rotate around the rotating seat 20111, creating an opening in the connecting seat 201. Then, it is inserted into the desired compartment 103 on the belt 100, and the second connecting part 20122 is inserted into the slot 20112. This design allows the user to more easily adjust the position of the tensioner 200 on the belt 100. As will be understood by those skilled in the art, the insertion of the second connecting part 20122 into the slot 20112 is an interference fit. The base plate 2012 and the panel 2011 clamp the surface layer 101. Since the user's pulling force is not perpendicular to the panel 2011, the user will not separate the base plate 2012 from the panel 2011 when pulling the tension cord 203. The slot 20112 refers to two parallel protrusions on the lower part of the panel 2011, and the space defined by these two protrusions is adapted to the shape of the second connecting part 20122.
[0048] Furthermore, since the resistance band 200 may slide relative to the surface layer 101 when under force during exercise, a protrusion 209 needs to be provided on the panel 2011 between the rotating seat 20111 and the slot 20112. By providing the protrusion 209, the friction between the panel 2011 and the surface layer 101 is increased, minimizing the possibility of the resistance band 200 sliding relative to the surface layer 101 during use, improving safety, and preventing injury to the user due to sudden loss of force during exertion.
[0049] In the aforementioned embodiments, users exercise by directly pulling the resistance rope 203, but this is not easy to exert force and is not comfortable. Therefore, based on the above embodiments, a handle 300 can be added to the smart fitness belt provided by this utility model, so that the handle 300 is connected to the resistance rope 203. At this time, the user holds the handle 300 and then pulls the rope, which can improve the comfort of the fitness equipment.
[0050] The grip 300 can take many forms, but as a preferred option, it includes a handle 301 and a pull ring 302. One end of the pull ring 302 is open, and the other end is closed. Both sides of the open end of the pull ring 302 are connected to the handle 301. The end of the tension cord 203 is connected to a connecting ring 204. The connecting ring 204 has a through hole, through which a horseshoe buckle 206 is connected. The horseshoe buckle 206 connects to the pull ring 302. This design allows the tension cord 203 to be separated from the grip 300 for easy assembly and disassembly.
[0051] Furthermore, the connecting ring 204 is rotatably connected to a connecting head 205, which is fixedly connected to the end of the tension rope 203. The connecting ring 204 is connected to the horseshoe buckle 206. This arrangement prevents the tension rope 203 from twisting when the grip 300 rotates.
[0052] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and these equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
