Abstract

The present invention discloses a dumbbell structure capable of delivering exercise information and status, comprising one or more electronic devices installed on the dumbbell for transmitting related parameter information exercise information and status to a computer (such as PC or NB) or a personal smart mobile device (such as PAD and PDA) with corresponding software, and the computer or personal smart mobile device display data of the total amount of exercise (including frequency and calorie consumption), and the electronic device comprises a weight information transmitting sensor, a weight information receiving sensor, a G-sensor, a power supply unit, an information integration and computation unit and an information output unit.

Claims

1. A dumbbell structure capable of delivering exercise information and status, comprising one or more sets of electronic devices installed on each dumbbell, wherein the electronic devices transmit parameter information including related exercise information and status to a computer or a personal smart mobile device with corresponding software, and the computer or personal smart mobile device displays data of a total amount of exercise.

2. The dumbbell structure capable of delivering exercise information and status as recited in claim 1, wherein the electronic device comprises:

a weight information sensor, installed on a weight, for showing the weight of a specific weight;

a weight information sensor, installed at a position proximate to a sheathing end of the weight, for sensing and reading weight information of each weight mounted onto the sheathing end, and transmitting the information to an information integration and computation unit;

a G-sensor, for sensing an exercising distance, a use frequency and time of the dumbbell, and transmitting all of said information to the information integration and computation unit;

a power supply unit, for supplying an electric power required by the electronic device;

an information integration and computation unit, for converting weight information received from the weight information sensor and related exercise parameters including the exercising distance and time sensed by the G-sensor into an exercise power by built-in software;

an information output unit, for transmitting a computing value obtained from the information integration and computation unit to a computer or a personal smart mobile device through a cable or wireless transmission.

3. The dumbbell structure capable of delivering exercise information and status as recited in claim 1, further comprising an electronic gyroscope installed in the electronic device.
