Definitions
- the present invention relates to a weight training apparatus with load compensation, and a method of controlling the compensation provided.
- the bodybuilding, gymnastics or rehabilitation apparatus comprise a frame and at least one element intended to be mobilized with respect to this frame by a user of the apparatus in a return movement allowing to exercise successively muscles or muscle groups.
- these devices do not make it possible to modify the load, either during a movement, or between the eccentric movements (a controlled elongation of the worked muscle) and concentric movements (a shortening of the worked muscle).
- the current training in bodybuilding is actually to push and retain the same weight load.
- the resistance does not vary between the eccentric movement and the concentric movement.
- the variables of the training with the conventional apparatuses concern the quantity of movements carried out, the number of series and the number of repetitions of each series, the speed of execution, the amplitude of the movement, the time of rest between series and the load each series, increasing or decreasing the load.
- bodybuilding devices have been developed that allow to change the load between the eccentric movement and the concentric movement, usually to obtain a higher load when the user works in eccentric mode, because physiologically, the muscles have a greater force in eccentric phase than in concentric phase.
- FIG. 1 shows a weight training device 1 as described by patent EP 2 263 759.
- the apparatus 1 comprises a frame 2 comprising slides 3 (3-1, 3-2), a stack 4 of weight 5, a selector 6 weight load, and a key 7.
- Cylinders 8 (8-1, 8-2) are fixed vertically on the frame 2 of the apparatus 1.
- Each cylinder 8 (8-1, 8-2) a a respective body 9 (9-1, 9-2) and shaft 10 (10-1, 10-2), the shaft being retracted into the body in deactivated mode (i.e., when the cylinder compensation is is not desired) and pressing the selector 6 in the activated mode (ie when the cylinder compensation is desired) to push the selector 6 upward, providing assistance in mounting the load of weight.
- the activation and deactivation of the operation of the jacks 8 can be accomplished by means of a control 11 fixed to the frame 2, the jacks 8, a handlebar 12, or near the limbs not involved in the exercise (for example). example, if the exercise is for the arms, the control 11 will be located at the level of the feet and vice versa).
- the apparatus further includes a compressed air source and a power source (not shown) for operating the cylinders.
- the user uses the key 7 to select a load of weight comprising at least one weight 5 of the stack 4, sits on a bench 13, and catches the handlebar 12 which is coupled to the weights 5 by a strap and pulleys (not shown).
- the user presses with his foot (or with the hand following the exercises) on the control 11 to activate the cylinders 8 and pulls the handlebar 12 down in concentric mode, with the help of the jacks.
- the user releases the control 11 to deactivate the jacks and allows the handlebar 12 to return upwards, under the effect of gravity, by retaining it in eccentric mode.
- the thrust of the cylinders 8 is a function of the pressure sent into the cylinders, which can be selected more or less strong, which allows to adjust the compensation to the lifting of the load. For example, if the user wishes to work 60 kg in concentric mode (pull the handlebar 12 down by lifting the weights 5), he can select 100 kg on the weight stack 5, and the cylinders 8 will provide compensation equivalent to 40 kg during the concentric phase, so that the user feels a load of 60 kg.
- the rods 10-1, 10-2 retract into the bodies 9-1, 9-2 of the cylinders by simple gravity, provide no compensation and do not interfere with the return of the weight to the initial position. As a result, the user sees a load of 60 kg during the concentric phase, and a load of 100 kg during the eccentric phase.
- Embodiments of the invention relate to a weight training apparatus comprising a frame and at least one load that a user moves back and forth, the apparatus comprising at least one pneumatic cylinder which provides load compensation during the period of time. least a portion of the movement.
- the apparatus further comprises a system for automatically detecting the movement of the load, and controlling the compensation of the load supplied by the jack or cylinders according to the detection of the movement.
- the system comprises at least one transmitter, and at least one receiver, at least one of which is configured to be moved with the movement of the load.
- the load comprises a stack of at least two weights
- the apparatus comprises a key for selecting a weight from the stack
- the transmitter is arranged on the key
- the system further comprises a module comprising a plurality of receivers arranged near the transmitter and in the direction of movement of the key.
- the system is configured to further detect the selected weight by means of the key.
- the emitter is a magnet and the receivers are reed switches arranged on an electrical module.
- the apparatus comprises means for selecting a training program, the training program concerning the percentage of compensation provided by the jack or cylinders, the supply or not of the compensation in a given direction of movement. and / or a modification of the compensation provided along a direction of movement.
- the apparatus comprises means for activating and deactivating the compensation by the jack or cylinders.
- the apparatus comprises means for modifying the percentage of the compensation provided by the jack or cylinders.
- Embodiments of the invention further relate to a method of controlling the compensation provided by at least one jack of a weight training apparatus according to the invention, the method comprising the steps of automatically detecting the movement of a loaded load. in movement back and forth by a user, and control the compensation provided by the cylinder or cylinders according to the motion detection.
- the method further comprises the steps of detecting the selected load by a user, and controlling the compensation provided by the one or more jacks as a function of the selected load.
- the method further comprises the steps of detecting a chosen training program and controlling the compensation provided by the jacks according to the detected program.
- Embodiments of the invention relate to a non-transitory computer readable medium incorporating a code configured to perform the steps of the procedure according to the invention.
- Embodiments of a system and a method according to the invention will be set forth in the following description, given as a non-limitative example, with reference to the appended figures in which:
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a load motion detection and charge compensation control system according to one embodiment.
- FIG. 3 represents a view from above of the system of FIG. 2.
- Figures 2 and 3 show a perspective view and a top view of a load sensing and load compensation control system, the system being for equipping a conventional apparatus as described in relation to with Figure 1. Compared with the apparatus shown in relation to Figure 1, the same elements have retained the same references.
- the detection and control system 15 comprises a vertical electrical module 16 with a plurality of receivers 17 and a transmitter 18 arranged on the key 7.
- the transmitter 18 can be arranged in the handle of the key 7, with the module 16 arranged in front of the weight stack 4, or on the contrary, the transmitter 18 can be arranged at the end of the key 7, with the module 16 arranged behind the stack of weight 4.
- the solution chosen depends on the device, preferences from the manufacturer, etc. Here, the first solution is shown.
- Each weight 5 comprises a through hole 19 which opens on its upper face and on its underside to allow a selector rod 20 to be introduced vertically into the stack 4 of the weights 5.
- Each weight 5 further comprises a hole 21 on its front face to receive the key 7 horizontally in a cavity 22 (shown in Figure 3).
- the through-hole 19 and the recess 22 intersect, allowing the end of the key to be inserted into a receiving hole 23 of the stem 20 to select the load (the weight and the weights above, the case appropriate), and so select the desired number of weights 5 that will be worked.
- the receivers 17 are fixed and electrically connected to the module 16 which is arranged longitudinally in front of the front face of the battery 4, next to the key 7 so that the movement of the key with the rise and the descent of the weights goes along the path of the receivers 17 of the module 16.
- the transmitter 18 is here a magnet and the receivers 17 are open / closed contacts arranged in the magnetic field of the transmitter 18, making it possible to ensure the detection by one or more receivers 17 of the proximity of the transmitter 18 during his displacement.
- the receivers 17 may be soft reed switches comprising two magnetizable and elastic contacts that magnetize in the presence of a magnetic field. The contacts are attracted to each other, come closer and touch each other, establishing a current. Once the magnetic field is no longer present, the magnetization stops and the contacts are no longer attracted and separate, cutting off the current. Each switch is connected to a detection circuit by a specific electronic circuit so that its state, open or closed, can be discerned individually.
- the total number of receivers 17, as well as the distance between each receiver, depends on the desired accuracy and the total length of the maximum path traveled by the key. Several receivers can be "operated” at a time, depending on the distance between them, the speed of movement, etc.
- motion detection technology described in the example is not limiting. Any technology (mechanical, optical by means of a laser installed on the key and optical sensors installed on the module, etc., inductive) using the principle described here, where the mobile key is emitting and the receiver is fixed and consists of a set of detectors is included in the present invention.
- a receiver on the key and one or more fixed transmitters is also possible, as well as a mobile transmitter and one or more mobile receiver (s) ), but may be more expensive and / or more difficult to implement.
- a detection and control system with respect to the selector rod 20, for example a means arranged with respect to each receiving hole 23 to detect the insertion of the end of the key 7 so as to deduct the weight.
- a means for detecting the movement of the key 7, for example a means of counting the number of rotations of a pulley would make it possible to determine the displacement of the weights.
- the module 16 is connected to a power supply, and can be connected to a digital-to-analog converter that makes the module compatible with any other detection and control system, including a paper printer, a computer, a touch screen, etc. .
- the apparatus allows the user to choose a particular training mode, according to his needs and objectives.
- the device can be equipped with several push buttons on its front panel, or a screen for example.
- the apparatus provides security in that the charge compensation provided can not be greater than the charge selected by the use because it detects the selected charge. As a result, the load can not move under the action of the cylinders, which presents a risk for the user and can reduce the operation of the device.
- the user selects a weight for the eccentric phase or a weight for the concentric phase, and the system determines the weight for the other phase, depending on the applicable percentage, for example 40% as described above. .
- This percentage can be fixed, variable thanks to a touch screen, or with several corresponding pushbuttons (30%, 40% and 50% only, for example). It is possible for a trainer to determine the weights to use, in which case a password may be required.
- the device applies the selected assistance as soon as the movement is detected by the system for the concentric phase. Once the system detects that the weight changes direction, the jacks are disabled.
- the compensation offered by the cylinders varies, it is generally more important at the beginning of movement, and less important at the end of the movement.
- This mode of use can be advantageous for exercises where the user has more trouble starting the movement, for example for ergonomic reasons.
- the compensation provided may be, for example, 70% during the first quarter of movement, and once the system detects that the movement has exceeded a quarter, the compensation is reduced to 40%.
- the compensation offered by the cylinders varies, so that it is important on one part of the movement and zero or almost zero on the other part of the movement.
- This mode of use makes it possible to move the load without much effort on a part of the movement, to stop and to retain all the charge statically for a moment, then to push the load by accelerating by soliciting the compensation.
- the device can detect that the amplitude of the movement is reduced, and can deduce that the user is tired.
- the system provides compensation (for example 10 to 20% of the load) to lighten the load and allow the user to finish the series.
- the described invention can be implemented differently, with different ways of detecting the movement of the load, processing the information, controlling the jacks, modifying and controlling the compensation. etc.
- the number of jacks is not limited to two, but can be more or less depending on their capabilities and the needs of the device.
- the apparatus may comprise a non-modifiable load or "monoblock" of 100 kg.
- the user indicates the weight of work on a screen and the system provides permanent compensation so that the residual charge matches the chosen value.
- the weight training apparatus comprises a microcomputer comprising a memory that stores a code configured to execute the different modes of use, with the motion detection and the provision of the charge compensation as a function of the chosen mode of use and motion detection.
- This code can be stored on a non-transitory medium.
