Prior to the full-scale description, the exercise device 10 of FIG. 1 is merely an example for facilitating understanding of the present invention, and the present invention is applicable to all exercise devices having a weight block 11 Of course.

1 is a block diagram of a user-customized exercise management system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the exercise device 10 and the exercise device terminal 20 of FIG. 1.

The user-specific exercise management system 1 may include an exercise device 10, an exercise device terminal 20, and an exercise management server 30.

3 and 4, the exercise device 10 is a weight training device for strengthening a user's muscle strength, a plurality of weight blocks 11, a plurality of weight blocks 11 inserted into the lifting rod 12 and It may include a plurality of push-pull solenoid portion (13, hereinafter referred to as a solenoid portion) coupled to the lifting rod 12 to correspond to each weight block (11).

In addition, the exercise device 10 forms a skeleton of the exercise device 10 in addition to the above-described configuration, is coupled to the frame 14 and the frame 14 supporting the weight block 11 to move the weight block 11 A pair of guide guides 15 and the weight blocks 11 are arranged on the upper surface of the top, and the lifting rods 12 are coupled to the lifting blocks 16 and the lifting blocks 16, depending on the movement of the handle It may include a rope 17 for moving the lifting block 16 up and down, but this is a general configuration of the exercise device 10, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The weight block 11 has a pair of guide holes 111 that can be inserted into the moving guide 15 on both sides, and can be penetrated up and down, and an insertion hole 112 through which the lifting rod 12 can be inserted in the center penetrates up and down. Can be. In addition, the weight block 11 may be formed with a first inner space 113, one surface of which is opened to communicate with the insertion hole 112. In this case, the first inner space 113 may be formed in a first direction perpendicular to the insertion hole 112.

The lifting rod 12 may be movably disposed in the insertion holes 112 of the plurality of weight blocks 11 stacked up and down, and may be formed in a circular or square column shape. At this time, the lifting rod 12 may have a first recessed groove 121 corresponding to the first inner space 113 of each weight block 11 in a one-to-one depression, and the first recessed groove 121 May be in communication with the first inner space 113.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the weight block 11 may be formed to have a second inner space 114 with one surface open so as to communicate with the insertion hole 112 in a second direction opposite to the first direction. have. That is, the first inner space 113 and the second inner space 114 may be formed on both sides of the insertion hole 112 around the insertion hole 112. In addition, the lifting rod 12 may have a second recessed groove 122 corresponding to the second inner space 114 of each weight block 11 in a one-to-one depression, and the second recessed groove 122 May communicate with the second inner space 114 and the first recessed groove 121 and may have sufficient space so as not to interfere with the rotation of the support member 135 to be described later.

The solenoid portion 13 may be coupled to each of the first recessed grooves 121, and the solenoid rod 131 may be inserted into the weight block 11 depending on whether current is supplied. When current is supplied to the solenoid portion 13, the solenoid rod 131 may be inserted into the first inner space 113, and the weight block 11 into which the solenoid rod 131 is inserted is the lifting rod 12 And may not be separated. In this state, when the lifting rod 12 is moved in a direction away from the weight block 11 by the rope 17, the weight block 11 and the solenoid rod 131 into which the solenoid rod 131 is inserted are inserted. The weight block 11 located on the upper side of the weight block 11 is moved together with the lifting rod 12 and can provide a weight load to the rope 17. For example, when the solenoid rod 131 is inserted into the weight block 11 located at the third position from the top with each weight block 11 having a weight of 5 kg, the rope 17 may take a weight load of 15 kg. That is, according to the present invention, the weight load applied to the exercise device 10 can be adjusted according to whether the solenoid part 13 is supplied with current.
