Dual-shaft hinge module for interactive training apparatus

Abstract

The present invention discloses a dual-shaft hinge module for an interactive training apparatus. The dual-shaft hinge module comprises a first shaft assembly and a second shaft assembly, which orthogonally intersect and are positioned at a shaft seat. The first shaft assembly and the second shaft assembly can be controlled by a main post to rotated clockwise or anticlockwise against axes thereof. A first sensing and the second sensing units sense rotational directions and angles of the first and the second shaft assemblies to generate signals accordingly. The signals are then transmitted to an interactive device.

1 . A dual-shaft hinge module for an interactive training apparatus, comprising:
 a shafts;   a main post, having a top thereof fixedly fastened to a bottom of a swinging member of the interactive training apparatus;   a first shaft assembly and a second shaft assembly, which orthogonally intersect and are positioned at the shaft seat and can be controlled by the main post to rotated clockwise or anticlockwise against axes thereof; and   a first sensing unit and a second sensing unit, fixed at the shaft seat and positionally corresponding to one ends of the first shaft assembly and the second shaft assembly, respectively, for sensing rotational directions and rotational angles of the first shaft assembly and the second shaft assembly, respectively, and generate signals for being further transmitted to an interactive device.   
   
   
       2 . The dual-shaft hinge module of  claim 1 , wherein the main post has a bottom pivotally connected to a stem of the first shaft assembly through a pivot. 
   
   
       3 . The dual-shaft hinge module of  claim 2 , wherein the second shaft assembly comprises a driven member embracing the main post and shafts driven by the driven member. 
   
   
       4 . The dual-shaft hinge module of  claim 3 , wherein the driven member comprises a pair of touching rods that are parallel and contact an exterior of the main post, in which each two corresponding ends of the touching rods are combined by a swinging plate and each of the swinging plates is connected to one of the shafts. 
   
   
       5 . The dual-shaft hinge module of  claim 4 , wherein the shaft seat comprises a lower positioning seat and an upper positioning seat axially aligned to the lower positioning seat, in which a first shaft recess set and a second shaft recess set are provided at a surface of each of the lower positioning seat and the upper positioning seat facing the other of the lower positioning seat and the upper positioning seat for positioning two ends of the stem and the two shafts. 
   
   
       6 . The dual-shaft hinge module of  claim 3 , wherein the first and second sensing units sense rotational directions and angles of the stem and the shafts, respectively. 
   
   
       7 . The dual-shaft hinge module of  claim 1 , wherein the interactive device at least comprises a computer, a display device and a software stored in the computer and providing a specific function, in which the software receives and processes the signals output by the first and second sensing units and instantly presents an interactive screen in the display device so that the signals are processed by the software to be presented as an object in the interactive screen. 
   
   
       8 . The dual-shaft hinge module of  claim 1 , wherein the shaft seat is positioned on a substantial surface of the interactive training apparatus. 
   
   
       9 . The dual-shaft hinge module of  claim 8 , wherein an elastic swinging-member supporting unit is positioned on a substantial surface of the interactive training apparatus for supporting a bottom of the swinging member. 
   
   
       10 . The dual-shaft hinge module of  claim 9 , wherein the swinging-member supporting unit has an annular shape.
