EXERCISE MACHINE SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An exercise administration system that is an exercise machine system, in which one or a plurality of exercise machines for allowing a user to perform an exercise is connected to a server that is operated by a service provider of a service that promotes health of the user via a network, whereinthe exercise machine comprises:
- an exercise load application means for applying an exercise load to the user;
an operation control means for changing an operation state of the exercise load application means in response to a machine control signal input from the server;
an identifier storage means for storing user identifiers that have been allocated to individual users;
an operation time interval measurement means for measuring an operation time interval of the exercise machine;
a measurement data storage means for storing measurement results of the operation time interval in association with the user identifiers; and
a communication means for communicating with the server via the network, andthe server comprises;
a communication means for communicating with the exercise machine via the network;
a server storage means for storing the user identifiers and the measurement data on the operation time interval that have been received by the communication means from the exercise machine in association with each other;
a point conversion means for determining exercise points obtained by quantifying an exercise amount of each user from the operation time interval of the user stored in the server storage means and storing the exercise points in the server storage means; and
a machine operation control means for transmitting, from the communication means to the exercise machine, a machine control signal for changing an operation state of the exercise machine for the user when the cumulative total number of exercise points for each user that has been stored in the server storage means exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Abstract
Operation time interval measurement means 28 of a passive exercise machine 1 measures the operation time interval and stores the measurement result of the operation time interval in association with the user identifiers in a machine operation table TB2. A server 2 includes an exercise history table TB12 that associates and stores the user identifiers and the measurement data on the operation time interval received by external communication means 41 from the passive exercise machine 1 via a network, operation time interval-to-exercise point conversion means 46 for determining exercise points that are obtained by quantifying the exercise amount of each user from the operation time interval of the user stored in the operation history table TB12 and storing the determined exercise points in the exercise history table TB12, and machine operation pattern determination means 47 for determining a machine operation pattern number indicating an operation state of the passive exercise machine 1 that is being used by the user when a cumulative total number of exercise points per user that has been stored in the exercise history table TB12 exceeds a predetermined threshold level. The server 2 transmits the determined machine operation pattern number from the external communication means 41 to the passive exercise machine 1.
