Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) This invention relates to a training cycle machine used for promoting health.

(Prior Art) Conventional general training cycle machines use mechanical resistance such as brakes as a load during training. Therefore, in this resistance, the energy generated by the person being trained is simply wasted as heat.

Furthermore, in the case of a training cycle machine that uses a generator as a load in conjunction with electric power generation, the power generation efficiency is low, so energy loss is significant and the amount of energy that can actually be extracted is small.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, the conventional training cycle machine described above has the following problems.

In other words, simply wasting energy during training will quickly cause you to lose interest in training, which will significantly reduce the use of expensive training cycle machines, making it difficult to increase the effectiveness of your training. The physical heat generated by the body and the heat generated by the resistance load raise the temperature of the training field, which becomes unbearable due to sweat and thickness, making the training itself extremely uncomfortable, and the amount of training can only be measured in hours. This is far from the reality, and furthermore, the amount of energy that can be taken out by the power generation load is very small, so it is difficult to accomplish anything effective and it is difficult to feel a sense of accomplishment.

Therefore, the present invention is intended to solve this problem, and is equipped with a heat pump that can obtain more energy while training in proportion to the amount of training, and can use this energy to produce practical effects. We provide training cycle machines.

(Means for Solving the Problems) A training cycle machine with a heat pump according to the present invention has the following configuration in order to solve the above problems.

In FIG. 1, the handle 12 of the training cycle machine 10 with a heat pump is connected to the saddle 16 on the crank part 14.
The crank part 14 is connected to the rotating shaft 22 of the compressor 20 by one heald 18 . The compressor tJ3120 is located between the evaporator 26 outlet with the fan 24 coaxial with the compressor 20 and the condenser 28 outlet, and the condenser 28 outlet and the evaporator 26 outlet are connected to the expansion valve 3.
0. They are connected via capillaries, etc.

(Function) The evaporator 26 is constantly supplied with fresh air by the fan 24 in an open space where outside air can be taken in, and is supplied with energy by the energy contained in this air. That is, the refrigerant liquid that has entered the evaporator 26 absorbs the thermal energy B of the outside air and is evaporated, enters the compressor 20, and in the compressor, the human power energy A is transferred from the training cycle machine 10 via the heald 18. As a result, the high temperature gas is sufficiently compressed in the compressor 20, converted into a high temperature gas, and then sent under pressure to the condenser 28. The gas body is liquefied, and the pressure of the liquefied refrigerant liquid is lowered by the expansion valve 30, making it easier to evaporate and generating the gas generator 26.
to go into. Then, the process of absorbing outside air energy is repeated. As a method of storing human power, the method of extracting it as electricity results in the fact that the amount of electrical energy that can actually be used becomes considerably small due to the poor charging efficiency when converting it into electricity, and the amount of energy that can be used as human power is 1
Although it is far from practical use as it is small, at less than 0.00 mm, in the present invention, the heat pump is used as an energy conversion tool, and the energy used to move the energy of the outside air is used as a power source for humans. Because it utilizes energy, the output energy is 2 to 3 times more than the power energy of a human being, and a super heat pump can obtain 6 to 8 times the energy A and B, and the power energy of a small human being can be economically converted into large energy. Human power energy, which was thought to be of no practical use, can be used for heating and cooling. This makes it possible to give immediate and visible effectiveness to the training itself, and it is also possible to set goals based on the amount of heating and cooling, which adds heat to the training and allows the cooling air from the heat pump fan to be used during training. By using this, you can enjoy a refreshing workout while applying the most desirable cold air to your body, especially your face, which gets colder the harder you row.

(Example) Hereinafter, preferred examples embodying the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[Example 1] Training cycle machine 10 shown in FIG. 2 (perspective view)

A cold air outlet 44 with a louver communicating with the fan 24 is provided at the upper front edge of the heat pump section 34, and a display panel 46 for displaying a thermometer, tachometer, calorimeter, timer, etc. is provided as necessary. With,
A bifurcated handle 12 is fixed below it.

A cover 48 is placed on the conductive portion extending forward from the middle part of the front surface to the lower part of the heat pump portion 34.
Inside, a heald 18, a heald driving pulley 50, and a variable speed tightener pulley 52 in contact with the upper part of the belt 18 are provided. is applied to a belt driving pulley 50. Outside the cover 48, the saddle 16 protrudes upward, and the petals 56 are located on the sides in the front and back direction.
A variable speed lever 58 protrudes from the top surface.

In terms of operation, the cold air whose energy has been absorbed after passing through the stem generator 26 passes through the cold air outlet 44 by the fan 24 and is blown out in the direction corresponding to the face during training above the handle 12. The most suitable temperature control is achieved in that the degree of cooling is proportional to the force with which the pedal 56 is stepped on. The hot water in the hot water tank 40 can be used for drinking, showering, etc., and can enhance the refreshing feeling.

In order to enable training according to physical strength by controlling the load, when the variable speed lever 58 is pulled forward and adjusted, the variable speed tightener pulley 52 moves to the heald 1
8 is strongly pressed downward to form a V-heald groove 58 of the variable speed pulley 54 shown in FIG. Fixed pulley 6
0 and the slide pulley 62 is expanded by the pressing force of the belt 18 while resisting the force of the disc spring 64, and becomes the same as if the diameter of the pulley had become smaller, allowing for stronger training.

[Embodiment 2] In FIG. 6, the hot water tank 40 is a closed type, and the hot water in the heat exchange tank 66 is taken out to the outside via the circulation hose 68 and the hot water pump 70, and the water in the separate tank 72 is drained. Heat,

In addition, food, beverage bottles, cans, etc. can be placed in the container for heating and cooling. Since hot air blowing out from the cold air outlet 44 is unbearable in summer, it is necessary to provide a shutter mechanism in addition to a simple louver. Handle 1
2 can use an upper part shaped like a vertically long rectangular frame.

(Effect of the invention) As described above, according to the present invention, energy exceeding human power can be freely extracted as hot water, cold water, cooling, heating, cold air, and hot air, and energy that was wasted can be used for training. However, it can be used extremely economically and effectively. The device is extremely versatile and can satisfy the playful spirit, as well as replacing a training goal with a concrete, useful purpose of producing hot water, so a boring training session can go from being a boring training session to a long one. It can continue for a period of time. Furthermore, since kinetic energy is converted into heat, the amount of training can be determined specifically by measuring the amount of hot water, temperature, etc., and the fun of drinking cold water or tea and taking a shower after training makes training competitive. . In addition, cold air makes training refreshing and can also be used as a learning tool to help students master the scientifically difficult to understand principles of heat pumps.

Although the present invention has been variously explained above with reference to preferred embodiments, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and it goes without saying that many modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. It is.
