==MOTORIZED FITNESS WHEEL - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240009518 titled 'MOTORIZED FITNESS WHEEL

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes a motorized fitness wheel that is used for exercise. The fitness wheel consists of a wheel that rotates on an axle and has two handles extending outward from the sides. The user holds the handles and rolls the wheel back and forth on the floor. A motor applies torque to the wheel in either a forward or backward direction to provide resistance or assistance during the exercise. A position sensor provides information about the wheel's position to a microcontroller. Based on this information, the microcontroller dynamically controls the motor's output torque according to predefined torque trajectories. These torque trajectories define the motor's output torque over a cycle of the exercise, based on the wheel's position and/or time.

* The fitness wheel includes a wheel that rotates on an axle and two handles extending outward from the sides.
* A motor applies torque to the wheel in either a forward or backward direction to provide resistance or assistance during exercise.
* A position sensor provides information about the wheel's position to a microcontroller.
* The microcontroller dynamically controls the motor's output torque based on the wheel's position and/or time.
* Torque trajectories define the motor's output torque over a cycle of the exercise.

Potential applications of this technology:
* Fitness and exercise equipment for individuals or fitness centers.
* Rehabilitation and physical therapy for patients recovering from injuries or surgeries.
* Sports training to improve strength and coordination.

Problems solved by this technology:
* Provides a motorized fitness wheel that can provide resistance or assistance during exercise, allowing users to customize their workout intensity.
* The microcontroller dynamically controls the motor's output torque based on the wheel's position, providing a more efficient and effective exercise experience.
* The position sensor provides accurate information about the wheel's position, allowing for precise control of the motor's output torque.

Benefits of this technology:
* Allows users to easily adjust the intensity of their workout by changing the motor's output torque.
* Provides a more engaging and interactive exercise experience.
* Can be used for various fitness and rehabilitation purposes, catering to different user needs.
* The dynamic control of the motor's output torque ensures a more efficient and effective exercise routine.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

systems and methods disclosed herein concern a motorized fitness wheel. the fitness wheel includes a wheel that rotates about an axle with two handles that extend outward from respective sides of the wheel along the rotational axis. in use, the user grasps the handles with their hands and rolls the wheel back and forth along the floor. a motor is configured to apply a torque to the wheel in either forward or backward direction to apply resistance or assistance and enhance the exercise. a position sensor feeds positional information of the motor to a microcontroller. based on the positional information, the microcontroller dynamically controls the output torque of the motor as a function of one or more torque trajectories. the torque trajectories define the output torque of the motor over a cycle of the exercise as a function a spatial variable (e.g., wheel position) and/or time.
