Vibration device for muscle training

USPTO Application #: 20090118098
Title: Vibration device for muscle training
Abstract: A training device includes a motor including a sensor member connected therewith which is electrically connected to a control unit which controls the motor via commands from a user. A torque output unit is connected with an output shaft of the motor and transfers a resistant force to users and to transfers the force from the user to the motor. The torque output unit includes a speed reduction unit and a tension unit so as to transfer proper force between the motor and the users. The users exercise muscles by the vibration provided by the motor which rotates to-and-fro repetitively. (end of abstract)

The present invention relates to a Vibration Training device for enhancing muscles power and nerves reaction.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

An athlete needs strong muscles which reacts fast in the games and the power is a conduct of muscles force and velocity of the retraction of the muscles. The method for enhancing the force of the muscles is to include the number of fibers of the muscles and to increase the size of the muscles. The method for increasing the reaction of the muscles is to train the sensitivity of the nerves so as to enhance the efficiency and speed for dominating the reaction of muscles.

A conventional training device is shown in FIG. 1 and generally includes a frame with pulleys connected thereto and a cable has one end connected with a weight and the other end reeve through the pulleys and pulled by the user. The user pulls the cable to lift the weight to exercise his or her muscles. This type of device can only exercise the muscles and cannot help increase the response of nerves of the user. FIG. 2 shows another training device which is similar to the device disclosed in FIG. 1 and a vibration unit is cooperated with the cable so that when the user pulls the weight upward, the vibration unit provides vibration to the cable. The vibration unit provides a periodical vibration mode to stimulate the reaction of the nerves of the user so that the user has to use more exercising parts of his or her body to deal with the vibration.

The conventional training devices are huge so that most of the users cannot have their own training devices at homes.

The present invention intends to provide a training device which uses a motor cooperated with a torque output unit and a speed reduction unit to generate resistant force when the user operates the training device, and the torque output unit changes the modes of the resistance so as to train the speed of the nerves of the user.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a training device that comprises a motor including a sensor member connected therewith which is electrically connected to a control unit which controls the motor via commands from the users. A torque output unit is connected with an output shaft of the motor and transfers a resistant force to users and an operation force from the user to the motor.

The present invention will become more obvious from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings which show, for purposes of illustration only, a preferred embodiment in accordance with the present invention.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

FIG. 1 shows that a user uses a first conventional training device;

FIG. 2 shows that a user users a second conventional training device;

FIG. 3 shows that a user uses the training device of the present invention;

FIG. 4 shows the arrangement of the main parts of the training device of the present invention;

FIG. 5 shows the relationship between the torque and time of the training device of the present invention;

FIG. 6 shows the size relationship of the first speed reduction wheel, the second speed reduction wheel and the tension wheel of the speed reduction unit of the training device of the present invention;

FIG. 7 shows a second embodiment of the training device of the present invention;

FIG. 8 shows a third embodiment of the training device of the present invention, and

FIG. 9 shows a user uses the third embodiment of the training device of the present invention.
