DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The present invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0033] The present invention provides a roller-type omnidirectional physical exercise platform, including: a housing, a plurality of groups of alternately-placed spiral rollers disposed inside the housing, and two motors 200 configured to drive the spiral rollers. The housing includes a base 100 and a machine body cover 105.

[0034] FIG. 1 shows the base 100 of an exercise platform in this embodiment. Details of parts 100a, 100b, 100d, and 100c that are circled in FIG. 1 are respectively shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4, and FIG. 5. It can be learned from FIG. 1 to FIG. 5 that, both a side of a connecting line between 100a and 100b and a side of a connecting line between 100d and 100c are provided with support bearing grooves 101 for mounting spiral rollers and gear grooves 102 for gear transmission. There are two motor mounting grooves, that is, a right motor mounting groove 103 and a left motor mounting groove 104, in the side of the connecting line between 100a and 100d. The two motors 200 are respectively fixed and assembled in the right motor mounting groove 103 and the left motor mounting groove 104.

[0035] As shown in FIG. 6, the machine body cover 105 is approximately symmetrical with the base 100, and a difference lies in that the machine body cover 105 is bottomless. After the spiral rollers, the motors 200, and the like are assembled on the base 100, the machine body cover 105 and the base 100 are assembled, and the entire machine body can be fixed.

[0036] As shown in FIG. 7, the motor 200 includes a rotation shaft 201 and a gear fixing region 202. The gear fixing region 202 fixedly fits a driving gear 400, and is configured for transmission.

[0037] As shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 13, a bearing fixing hole 301 at the center of a driven gear 300 may fit a bearing 705, so that after the driven gear 300 fits in a driven gear fixing region 703 on the spiral roller, the driven gear is freely rotatable round the spiral roller.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 9, the center of the driving gear 400 is a polygonal fixing hole 401. The polygonal fixing hole may fit the gear fixing region 202 on the motor 200, so that the motor can drive the gear, or may fit a driving gear fixing region 706 on the spiral roller, so that the gear can drive the spiral roller.

[0039] As shown in FIG. 10, a wheel 501 is provided with a wheel shaft 502, and the wheel 501 is only rotatable around the wheel shaft 502. For any speed or force forming a particular angle with the direction of the wheel shaft 502. In a case that there is friction with the wheel 501, no slide is generated, and only rotation is generated, a speed or force in the direction of the wheel shaft 502 is offset, and only a speed or force in a rotation direction of the wheel is decomposed and kept.

[0040] As shown in FIG. 11, detailed parts of 700a circled on a counterclockwise spiral roller 700 are shown in FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, and detailed parts of 700b are shown in FIG. 14 and FIG. 15. The roller body of the counterclockwise spiral roller 700 is embedded with rotatable wheels 501 at counterclockwise oblique 45 degrees. At both ends of the roller, a support bearing 704 providing a support function and a gear are mounted on a support bearing fixing region 702. Referring to FIG. 14 and FIG. 15, the gear at the end and the counterclockwise spiral roller 700 are fixed through the driving gear fixing region 706, so that the gear can drive the counterclockwise spiral roller 700 to rotate, and is referred to as the driving gear 400. Referring to FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, the gear at the end is assembled on the driven gear fixing region 703 of the counterclockwise spiral roller 700 by the bearing 705, so that the gear is freely rotatable around the roller, and is referred to as the driven gear 300. The counterclockwise spiral roller 700 merely provides a support function to the driven gear 300.

[0041] As shown in FIG. 16, the clockwise spiral roller 800 is mirror-symmetrical with the counterclockwise spiral roller 700. That is, a direction in which the wheels 501 are embedded is clockwise oblique 45 degrees. The structure of two ends of the clockwise spiral roller 800 is the same as that of the counterclockwise spiral roller 700. Both the two structures are that a driving gear 400 is fixed at one end, and a driven gear 300 is assembled at the other end. It should be noted herein that for the clockwise spiral roller 800 and the counterclockwise spiral roller 700, provided that it is ensured that there is a particular angle between directions in which the wheels 501 are embedded into the clockwise spiral roller and the counterclockwise spiral roller and a wheel direction is not parallel to the axial direction of a roller, a synthesized vector in any direction in an entire plane can be synthesized according to a synthesis rule of planar vectors. In this embodiment, the embedded wheels 501 are respectively at clockwise oblique 45 degrees and counterclockwise oblique 45 degrees.

[0042] As shown in FIG. 17, the counterclockwise spiral rollers 700 and the clockwise spiral rollers 800 are assembled in the base 100 at intervals in a staggered manner by the support bearings 704. The support bearing 704 is arranged in the support bearing groove 101, a driven gear 300 of the counterclockwise spiral roller 700 is engaged with a driving gear 400 of the clockwise spiral roller 800 in the same gear groove 102, and a driving gear 400 of the counterclockwise spiral roller 700 is engaged with a driven gear 300 of the clockwise spiral roller 800 in another gear groove 102.

[0043] According to the connection manner in FIG. 17, as shown in FIG. 18 and FIG. 19, a plurality of counterclockwise spiral rollers 700 and a plurality of clockwise spiral rollers 800 are assembled in the base 100 at intervals in a staggered manner by the support bearings 704. An end, assembled with a driven gear 300, of the counterclockwise spiral roller 700 and an end, assembled with a driving gear 400, of the clockwise spiral roller 800 are arranged on one surface. The surface is driven by one motor 200 through the driving gear 400. That is, the motor 200 on the surface drives all the clockwise spiral rollers 800. One the other side, an end, assembled with a driving gear 400, of the counterclockwise spiral roller 700 and an end, assembled with a driven gear 300, of the clockwise spiral roller 800 are arranged on one surface. The surface is driven by the other motor 200. That is, the motor 200 can drive all the counterclockwise spiral rollers 700. In this embodiment, spiral rollers in a direction are driven by the same motor 200 driving the driving gears 400. There is one driven gear 300 between every two driving gears 400, and the driven gear is configured for transmission of rotation. It should be noted herein that a manner of the transmission is not limited to using the driven gear 300 to perform transmission between the driving gears 400, and all methods, for example, a method in which a chain is used to drive driving gears 400 on the same side or a method in which one motor is placed for each driving gear 400 are feasible. In consideration of noise, reliability, and the like, the transmission between the driving gears 400 is performed by using the driven gears 300 herein.

[0044] As shown in FIG. 20, after all the foregoing assembly operations are completed on the base 100, the machine body cover 105 and the base 100 are assembled, and the fixing of the entire machine body can be completed.

[0045] The present invention is used for providing a reverse moving speed for a human body moving on the surface of a machine body, thereby achieving movement experience that the human body does not leave a surface region of the machine body. FIG. 18 shows that speeds of the two motors are respectively adjusted according to a required outputted synthesized speed, that is, a speed in an opposite direction of the movement of the human, to drive the counterclockwise spiral rollers 700 and the clockwise spiral rollers 800 to rotate, where specifically:

[0046] in a machine body plane, a direction obtained by counterclockwise rotating 45 degrees from the axial direction of the counterclockwise spiral roller is used as the y direction, that is, the axial direction of the wheel on the counterclockwise spiral roller is used as the y direction; and a direction obtained by clockwise rotating 45 degrees from the axial direction of the clockwise spiral roller is used as the x direction, that is, the axial direction of the wheel on the clockwise spiral roller is used as the x direction; and a coordinate system is established accordingly, and when the surface of the platform requires an outputted synthesized speed with a magnitude of V.sub.w and an angle of w, a rotational linear speed of the counterclockwise spiral roller needs to be V.sub.1=V.sub.w*sin(w)/sin(pi/4), and a rotational linear speed of the clockwise spiral roller needs to be V.sub.2=V.sub.w*cos(w)/sin(pi/4), so that a rotational speed of the motor driving the counterclockwise spiral rollers is W.sub.1=a*V.sub.1, and a rotational speed of the motor driving the clockwise spiral rollers is W.sub.2=a*V.sub.2, where a is related to a gear radius and a transmission ratio, and is a constant.
