pneumatic control system with application in physiotherapy treatments and muscle strength training

摘要

pneumatic control system with application in physiotherapy treatments and muscle strength training the present invention consists of a physical exercise control system capable of being configured to perform different types of exercises, under different loads. the control is performed by a data processing control platform (pcpd) (2) that sends the control signal to a stepper motor system (3) that drives the pneumatic valve system (4), in which, through a pneumatic actuator, alters the effort of the mechanical system (5) in the execution of the exercise. a force sensor and a position sensor are responsible for sending to pcpd (2) the current state of the system, in which the calculation of the new response of the actuator (stepper motors) (3) is carried out in order to reach the specifications requested by the user. from the proposed equipment, the user will be able to adjust the desired load, increasing or decreasing according to the need and can select which type of exercise control will be performed.
