Abstract:
Aparato para entrenamiento del ciclismo (1) que comprende una plataforma de rodadura (2) que tiene una zona de rodadura anterior (3) y una zona de rodadura posterior (4), y un conjunto de anclaje (5) que soporta la bicicleta (8) sobre la plataforma de rodadura (2). Dicho conjunto de anclaje (5) presenta una horquilla (6) que se une por los extremos (6') de sus brazos al eje de la rueda trasera (7) de la bicicleta (8), y por su otro extremo (6'') está vinculada a un brazo intermedio (9), donde dicho brazo intermedio (9) se une por su parte inferior (9`) de forma articulada a un brazo de sujeción (11), definiendo un eje de giro "X", y donde dicho brazo de sujeción (11) se une articuladamente a una pieza de desplazamiento lateral (12) definiendo un eje de giro "Z", donde el eje de giro "X" y el eje de giro "Z" se intersectan en un punto de rodadura (13).

본 발명은 가상공간 속에서 실제로 주행을 하는 것과 동일하게 움직이면서 가상현실을 체험할 수 있도록 한 스마트 사이클링 시뮬레이터 및 스마트 라이딩 시뮬레이터에 관한 것으로서, 수평의 고정 베이스부와; 고정 베이스부 상에 회동 가능하게 결합되는 중앙의 힌지를 중심으로 전후 틸팅이 가능하게 구비되는 가동 베이스부와; 가동 베이스부 상에 지지되는 삼각프레임에 안장과 페달이 결합되는 탑승부와; 탑승부의 전방에 설치되는 모니터 또는 탑승부에 탑승하는 사용자에 착용되는 헤드마운트디스플레이로 이루어져 사용자에게 가상의 주행공간을 디스플레이하는 가상현실표현부; 및 가상현실표현부에 디스플레이되는 주행공간의 지면 경사도에 맞추어 고정 베이스부에 대하여 힌지를 중심으로 하여 가동 베이스부의 전방 또는 후방 단부를 승강 조절할 수 있도록 구비되는 경사조절부를 포함하는 것을 특징으로 한다. 이에 의해, 실제 사이클링이나 라이딩과 같이 다양한 자세를 구현할 수 있도록 함으로써 가상의 주행공간현실에서도 실제로 주행하는 것과 같은 박진감을 줄 수 있다.
Abstract:
A device (1) for determining a cinematic magnitude of a bicycle and a rate of the pedal- thrust exerted by an user on the pedals of said bicycle comprises: - a sensor (2) of said cinematic magnitude of the bicycle, adapted to be associated to said bicycle, suitable for detecting said bicycle cinematic magnitude (ω i ) and for generating a signal representative of said bicycle cinematic magnitude; - a filter (13) connected to said sensor (6) of the bicycle cinematic magnitude, configured for receiving at the input said signal representative of the bicycle cinematic magnitude (ω i ) and for supplying, at the output, an optimized signal (ω opt ) of the bicycle cinematic magnitude obtained by eliminating from the signal representative of the bicycle cinematic magnitude (ω i ), estimated errors (ϑ i ) correlated to the structure of said sensor of the bicycle cinematic magnitude; - a module (15) for the frequency-analysis of said optimized signal (ω opt ) of the bicycle cinematic magnitude, connected to said filter (13), configured for determining said pedal-thrust rate based on the frequency-analysis of said optimized signal (ω opt ) of the bicycle cinematic magnitude and for supplying a signal representative of the pedal-thrust rate (C).
Abstract:
A two-stage resistance trainer is provided having a first magnet that is in proximity to a rotating wheel, and a moveable second magnet that is linked to the first magnet. The first magnet is moved when the rotating wheel rotates and the second magnet is moved closer to the rotating wheel to add a second order effect to the resistance. The trainer is capable of adjusting the first magnet position in relation to the rotating wheel to provide a different relationship of speed to resistance.
Abstract:
A frame for a bicycle trainer, the frame comprising: a pair of end members, each end member having a first leg rotatably attached to a second leg, and each end member comprising a bearing for receiving an end of a pivot for a hub of a bicycle wheel, a base adapted for securing the end members said base further adapted to support a bicycle trainer in contact with a periphery of the bicycle wheel, wherein when the bicycle wheel is moved into contact with the bicycle trainer, there is coaxial movement of at least part of the frame to accommodate the diameter of the bicycle wheel.
Abstract:
A stationary trainer for use with a bicycle with the rear wheel removed. The stationary trainer has a fan assembly including a fan (2) attached to a fan hub configured to rotate about a fan hub axle (4). The trainer has a drive assembly including a drive hub having at least one gear cog configured to connect with a chain of the bicycle for providing power to the stationary trainer, and a chain ring (7), the drive hub configured to rotate about a drive hub axle (8). The drive hub axle is configured to engage with the rear dropouts of the bicycle. The trainer has a chain drive including a chain connecting the chain ring on the drive hub to a cog on the fan hub. There is a first side panel (9) located on a first side of the fan and a second side panel (10) located on a second side of the fan opposite the first side of the fan. One or more bracing elements connect the first side panel to the second side panel. The fan assembly and the drive assembly are supported by the first side panel and the second side panel, and a distance between an edge of the fan blade and either the first side panel or the second side panel is in the range from 4 mm to 70 mm.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a bicycle trainer comprising a support for supporting a bicycle having a frame and a rear wheel attached to a rear axle, the support comprising means for biasing the bicycle into an upright orientation, and a roller for engaging with the rear wheel of the bicycle, wherein, when the bicycle is supported by the support, the roller is adapted to provide resistance against turning the rear wheel and the rear axle of the bicycle is not connected to the support.
Abstract:
Described herein is a training harness comprising: a harness comprising at least one anchor point connecter; and a retractable tether comprising a casing supporting and storing a rotatable spool, a handle grip connected to the casing, a tether comprising a first end coupled to the spool and a second end configured for reversible coupling to the at least one anchor point connecter, an elastic section at or proximal to the second end. The training harness may be used by children learning a sport, particularly a downhill gliding sport such as skiing or snowboarding.
