Description of the Invention: TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The exemplary embodiments relate generally to a counting device for a push-up motion. [Prior Art] Voldemort is one of the oldest and perhaps the most effective sports of humanity. The military and competitive sports teams around the world use the push-up movement to measure the overall health of the team. I When moving, many users need to keep a count of the repetitive actions they perform. Historically, when a user needs to repeat the number of actions performed " ten o'clock, the user typically has to keep counting in his mind and observe the clock or watch, and/or set a timer on the clock or watch. If the user is performing a push-up movement, counting the repeated actions within a specified time period proves to be difficult. Counting devices have been developed to solve this problem. In general, for the volley forward movement, a counter has been developed in which the user touches the sensor (e.g., button) with his or her chest. The sensor actuates a switch or counter within the housing. The repeated actions counted can be represented by an audible sound or an up count on the display. Other counters include proximity sensors that do not touch the human body. However, the conventional physical touch sensor counter cannot simultaneously count the ground and repeat the action and time the motion. In addition, the conventional counter does not provide a situation in which the athlete cannot support his or her body in the position of the push-up position, and the contact surface is usually a static pad and the counter body is generally 136144.doc 201018508 Rigid. The proximity sensor is not suitable for counting the uplift movement and is therefore ineffective. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An exemplary embodiment of the present invention is directed to a counting device for a push-up movement. The device includes a body of the device and a counter assembly having a display and a plurality of actuating buttons thereon. The counter assembly is assembled within a deformable foam ring that forms the top of the device. During exercise, the user presses the foam ring down a given distance with his chest to (iv) at least the sensor in the counter assembly to record the repeat action count and the elapsed time of the movement on the display. . Another exemplary embodiment is directed to a counting device for a push-up movement that includes: a device body including an inductor and a first transceiver electrically coupled to the inductor; a deformable foam ring, Attached to the body of the device to form a top of the device; and a removable counter display unit having a second transceiver configured to fit within the foam ring. In the case where the display 1 is far away from the device, the sensor senses the user's pressing of the foam ring during the push-up movement, and sends a counting signal to the first transceiver, and the counting signal is transmitted to the The second transceiving is to record the repetitive motion count and the elapsed time of the motion on the counter display unit. Another exemplary embodiment of the present invention is directed to a motion system. The system includes: a pair of handle devices, which are The user grasps to perform the push-up movement; the counting device is positioned below the chest of the user and includes a sensor for detecting the chest of the user 136144.doc 201018508 Pressing of the foam ring; and a distal display unit in the field of view of the user. Once the sensor senses that the ring retainer holding the foam ring is in contact therewith, The counting device transmits a wireless signal that is received by the display unit and displayed as a repeating action count along with the elapsed time of the motion on the display unit. [Embodiment] The exemplary embodiment is generally directed to a type of ground. Counting device for moving forwards ^ In one example, the device includes a body of the device and a counter assembly. The body of the device includes a central aperture for receiving the counter assembly. The counter assembly includes a display for displaying a repeating action count and elapsed time. In an example, the counter assembly can be configured to have a set time period from countdown to zero. The counter assembly is mounted within the body of the device and includes a foam ring that forms the top of the device to expose a plurality of counters Button. The device repeats counting when the user presses down on the foam ring, triggering together with the elapsed time The count recorded on the display. The elapsed time of the exercise can be understood as, for example, the time from the given set movement time to zero, or from zero to the set end time. The device body itself can be deformed under the user's weight to allow _ Pressing the counting device exceeds the distance required to trigger the count. The deformable device body may also provide a security feature to prevent the user from losing muscle control during exercise and to protect the device electronics. In another example, the device includes A removable counter for remote communication of the device body. The device body includes a sensor that senses that the foam ring is pressed during the push-up motion. The sensor is attached to the transceiver 'the transmission is received by the transceiver of the remote counter Signal. This signal causes the counter to repeat counting. 136144.doc 201018508 The user can view the count and elapsed time on his monitor. 1 is a perspective view of a tilting movement for a push-up body according to an exemplary embodiment 1, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a number of helmets and a number of devices 10.

The device 10 simulates the height of the hoe and counts the repeated action. The disgusting device body 15G may be composed of a suitable (four) or rubber kick material that allows for some deformation. An exemplary material may be a thermoplastic rubber knee (TpR). This material provides deformation or variability of the apparatus main body 15G under stress. This prevention device 10 is damaged if the user cannot maintain its position above the device 1〇. The counter assembly (10) in this example includes a foam rubber ring iG5 that supports the top screen 110 and the display unit 12G, and a plurality of actuation buttons (2), 123, 125 that extend through the top screen U0. Through hole. In an example, display unit 120 can include an LED display. In general, during the operation, the user who performs the downward movement during the push-up movement contacts the foam rubber ring 1〇5. The foam rubber ring 1〇5 is seated in the ring holder 1G7. When the foam rubber ring 1Q5 is deformed, this causes the ring holder 107 to press down a given distance before recording a count. Give 'J and. When the foam rubber ring 5 is deformed so that the holder 1 〇 7 is displaced downward by about 0.5 (3 mm stroke), a counting sequence is started to count C on the display unit 136144.doc 201018508 120. This is merely an example, and the foam rubber ring 1〇5 is deformed so that the holder 107 is displaced by a distance in the range of about 2-7 mm to start a counting sequence. At a given deformation distance, the bottom surface of the holder 1〇7 contacts one or more of the sensors in the device electronics to record a repetitive motion. This juice number is displayed on the display unit 12A together with the elapsed time. The elapsed time can be, for example, a countdown from a given start time or a cumulative time from zero. Figure 3 is an exploded view of the counting device to illustrate the constituent components in more detail. The counter assembly 1〇〇 includes a top screen 11 around the display 12〇. The top screen 110 includes a plurality of drill holes ln through which the actuation buttons 125 extend. The counter assembly 1A includes a bottom cup 130 that is threaded onto the device body 15A via a threaded post 155 in this example. The bottom cup 13〇 includes a series of apertures 131 that are designed to receive the legs 112 of the top screen 11〇. The bottom cup 130 includes a cavity 132 that is designed to receive a battery holder 140 for the battery 142. The battery 142 supplies power to the PC board i 17 of the display unit 120 to display the count and elapsed time thereon. The actuation buttons 121, 123, 125 that extend through the aperture m in the top screen 110 can have a given function. One of the buttons can be the "On/Reset" button 121. Another button 123 is provided for the "increasing time" function to increase the amount of time displayed on the display 120, and the third button 125 is dedicated to the "reduce time" function to reduce the amount of time displayed on the display 12A. In general, by pressing the on/reset button 121, the power ϋ instance towel reaching the counting device ίο is turned on, and when power is turned on, the display device 12 〇 displays 2 minutes and 0 repeated operations. When recording the first repeated action time meter 136144.doc -10- 201018508: The device starts counting down, sounds for each repeated action, and records the repeated action by increasing the count. The base used by the Leopard Commando (Navy SEAL) during the 2 minutes of exercise is as long as the US Sea Gate can be reached – the duration of the delay + delay, but the default is 曰 ° ^ ',, - different internal time.
