Mobile Device Which Simulates Player Motion
A mobile device and system which simulates human motion. The device includes a base with a drive system for providing motion to the device. A receiver is provided which controls the drive system the receiver receives wireless control signals. Pads and a self-stabilizing component are provided on the device. The device accurately mimics the unpredictable motion of a human motion to provide a safer alternative to live interaction to increase participant safety and decrease the incidence of injuries during practice or drill sessions. The system includes at least one mobile device. The mobile device includes: a base having a drive system for providing motion to the device; a receiver which controls the drive system the receiver receives wireless control signals; and self-stabilizing component provided on the device. The system also includes a transmitter for transmitting the control signals to the receiver.
Apparatus for natural torso and limbs tracking and feedback for electronic interaction
An apparatus for natural torso and limbs tracking and feedback for electronic interaction with fall safety support. The apparatus comprises a body harness worn on the body of a user, a support structure designed to bear the weight of the user in the event of a stumble, trip, or fall, and a plurality of tethers attached at one end to the harness and at the other end to the support structure. One or more sensors are integrated into the system to measure aspects of the user's movement and used as input to control a computer system. In the event of stumble, trip, or fall, all of, or a portion of, the user's body weight is borne by the tethers as a safety mechanism to prevent injury. The system is designed to be used with virtual reality systems wherein the user's vision is blocked or obscured by a virtual reality visor.
EXERCISE SYSTEM AND METHOD
A treadmill includes a deck having a continuous track, and a plurality of slats fixedly connected to the track. The treadmill also includes a first post extending from the deck, a second post extending from the deck opposite the first post, and a first arm supported by the first post and including a first rotary control. The treadmill further includes a second arm opposite the first arm and supported by the second post. The second arm includes a second rotary control separate from the first rotary control. The first rotary control is configured to control a first function of the treadmill and the second rotary control is configured to control a second function of the treadmill different from the first function.
SQUAT RACK MOUNTABLE DIP EXERCISING SYSTEM
A squat rack mountable dip exercising system includes a frame that is removably positionable on and extended between a first guard and a second guard wherein the first and second guards are engaged with and extend forwardly from a squat rack. A grip is attached to the frame and is configured to be graspable by a person performing a dip exercise.
System for Controlling the Use of An Exercise Course by a Person in a Climbing Park
A system for controlling use of an exercise course by a person in a climbing park has a guiding element, which extends along a longitudinal direction and along which a person can move between a connecting section of the guiding element and a disconnecting section of the guiding element. A securing device is movably attachable along the guiding element between the connecting section and the disconnecting section. The securing device is connectable to the guiding element in the connecting section and is disconnectable from the guiding element in the disconnecting section. An identification device is configured such that, by the identification device, at least a connecting of the securing device within the identification section is identifiable, such that an occupancy of the guiding element with another person is identifiable therewith. An actuating device of the securing device is controllable with the identification device, such that the actuating device of the securing device is adjustable in a clearance position and, upon identification of the occupancy of the guiding element by another person, in a blocking mode. The actuating device of the securing device is coupled with the securing device, such that, in the blocking mode, a connecting of the securing device in the connecting section and/or a displacing of the securing device along the guiding element is blocked.
SAFETY ENCLOSURE FOR TRAMPOLINE USERS
A trampoline comprising a trampoline mat defining a jumping area and supported via springs from a circumextending support structure, the support structure including a plurality of legs so that the trampoline mat is positioned at a height above ground or flooring; the trampoline being provided with a safety enclosure surrounding the jumping area. The safety enclosure comprises a net supported by a plurality of telescopically extendable poles, each pole when extended comprising a plurality of sections, each successive extended section with distance above the trampoline mat having a cross-section less than that that of the next less extended section whereby the sections nest when telescopically collapsed. The lowermost such section is supported at a position above the ground or flooring by the support structure.
MOTOR RESISTANCE CONTROL STRUCTURE FOR AN EXERCISING APPARATUS
A motor resistance control structure for an exercising apparatus comprises a motor, a drawing member, a control unit, and a sensing element. The control unit controls the motor to generate a resistance and outputs a first instruction to allow an output shaft to rotate by a first present revolution along a first sense of rotation. The drawing member receives an applied force and pulls the output shaft to rotate by a training revolution along the first sense of rotation. The sensing element senses the applied force and gets a sensing result. By the comparison of the applied force with the resistance, the control unit controls the output shaft to rotate by a second preset revolution along a second sense of rotation or release the resistance of the motor, which avoids a problem in an ordinary exercising apparatus that a counterweight may fall freely to injure a user.
Swimming machine
A swimming machine comprising a housing adapted to be mounted to an interior wall of a swimming pool. The housing comprising a hydraulic motor connected to an impellor mounted within the housing for producing a current of water in the pool when in use. The swimming machine further comprising a hydraulic pump stored outside the housing operably connected to the hydraulic motor mounted within the housing, an electric motor connected to and powering the hydraulic pump, an inverter drive system connected to, powering and controlling the electric motor. Wherein in use the speed of the current produced is controlled by the inverter drive system.
Modified weight training equipment
A weight object configured to be lifted from a ground surface includes a first portion made of high-durometer material, a second portion made of elastomeric material having equal to or durometer than the first portion, and a handle for holding the weight object and lifting the object from the ground surface, where the second portion includes spaced holes within the elastomeric material for absorbing noise generated when the weight object is dropped on the ground surface. Alternatively, a weight object which is configured to be lifted from a ground surface, including at least one layer of elastomeric material having spaced holes therein for absorbing noise generated when the weight object is dropped on the ground surface, and an opening configured to receive a handle.
Exercise Machine with Resistance Selector System
An exercise machine with resistance selector system for selecting the number of bias members applying a resistance force against a movable platform. The exercise machine with resistance selector system generally includes one or more switches which are connected to the movable platform. Each of the one or more switches is adapted to engage or disengage a corresponding latch. When engaged, the latch will connect a corresponding bias member to the movable platform. When disengaged, the latch will disconnect a corresponding bias member from the movable platform. In this manner, an exerciser may easily adjust the number of bias members connected to the movable platform so as to adjust the resistance force applied against movement of the movable platform along a rail.
