SAFETY SWITCHING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BRAKING ELECTRIC MOTOR
A safety switching system and method for braking an electric motor in a mobile device. A multi-phase shorting system brakes the motor by diverting power from the motor windings. Multiple independent switching units each include a switch control unit controlling multiple normally-closed switches which, in response to a safety controller, close to connect a respective motor winding to electrical ground. An electromechanical brake system mechanically brakes the motor. An independent switching unit includes two normally-open switches which, in response to the safety controller, opens to activate an electromechanical brake. A feedback system communicates to the safety controller a switch failure of any of the switches either as a short circuit fault or an open circuit fault. The feedback system may include an analog and/or a digital feedback system. If a switch failure is detected, the safety controller may activate the multi-phase shorting system and the electromechanical brake system.
REDUNDANT CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR AN EXERCISE DEVICE
An exercise device with a redundant monitoring and control circuit integrated within or otherwise in communication with various components of the exercised device to detect and act on real or possible improper operation of the exercise device. A redundant controller may, based on a determination of a potentially out of specification operating condition of the exercise device, transmit one or more control signals to alter (e.g., reduce or remove) power to the motor of the exercise device. The redundant controller may provide a control signal to a motor power gating device to remove power transmitted to the motor from a power source and/or enable an inhibitor line of a motor controller to disconnect main power from the motor. Controlling the motor power gating device and the inhibitor line may ensure that power is removed from the motor even when a conflicting signal is being transmitted to the motor.
Exercise machine
An exercise machine may include a frame, a resistance mechanism supported by the frame, first and second pull cables supported by the frame and linked to the resistance mechanism, a power rack attached to the frame, first and second handles selectively attachable to the first and second pull cable, and first and second pulleys. The power rack includes upright posts configured to have barbell holders adjustably attached thereto such that the barbell holders are configured to be adjusted in various positions between highest positions and lowest positions on the upright posts. The pulleys are configured to selectively receive the pull cables to enable the pull cables to be selectively attached to a barbell to assist or hinder a user in lifting the barbell in a combined cable and free weight workout, the pull cables decoupled from the pulleys for cable workouts.
Multifunctional electronic resistance strength training fitness device
An exercise device comprising a metallic box, two motors mounted at left and right sides of the box, a mirror touch screen, a camera, a loudspeaker, two motors mounted at the left and right bottom of the box, movable arms at slide tracks at both sides, a voltage transformer for the mirror touch screen, and four drive boards for four motors. All these four motors connect with gear reducers. Four carriages ride on both sides of slide tracks. The upper left and right two carriages provide support for upper limbs exercise. The lower left and right two carriages provide support for lower limbs exercise.
NOISE REDUCTION ASSEMBLY FOR MOTOR-DRIVEN EXERCISE DEVICE
An exercise device includes a housing and an internal frame disposed within the housing. The exercise device includes a dampening system that includes a dampening block coupled to a web of the internal frame disposed within the housing. The exercise device includes a motor having a motor casing and a shaft with the shaft supported and rotationally fixed by the dampening block. The exercise device may include a cable pulley coupled to the motor casing such that, when the motor is actuated, each of the motor casing and the cable pulley rotate to extend the cable from or retract the cable into the housing. Among other things, the dampening block attenuates vibrations produced by the motor during actuation, improving performance of the exercise device and enhancing user experience.
