Control Apparatus and Method for Exercise Therapy Device

摘要

Provided are a control apparatus and method for an exercise therapy device, including the following steps: calculating a first-order lag waveform of a waveform of the target value of the exercise physiological response as a corrected target value of the exercise physiological response using a response time constant; calculating a difference between the corrected target value of the exercise physiological response and the measured value of the exercise physiological response as an exercise physiological response deviation after correction; generating a command value for the exercise load based on the exercise physiological response deviation after correction, so that the exercise physiological response of the exerciser approaches the corrected target value of the exercise physiological response, to thereby control the exercise load to be applied to the exerciser.

1. A control apparatus for an exercise therapy device, the exercise therapy device comprising an arithmetic control part for controlling an exercise load to be applied to an exerciser so that a measured value of one of a heart rate and a pulse rate of the exerciser, which are each an exercise physiological response of the exerciser, approaches a preset target value of the exercise physiological response, the arithmetic control part being configured to:
set the preset target value of the exercise physiological response and a response time constant of the exercise physiological response of the exerciser in a storage part of the exercise therapy device in response to an input operation of the exerciser; use the response time constant to calculate a first-order lag waveform of a waveform of the preset target value of the exercise physiological response as a corrected target value of the exercise physiological response; calculate a difference between the preset target value of the exercise physiological response and the measured value of the exercise physiological response as an exercise physiological response deviation before correction; calculate a difference between the corrected target value of the exercise physiological response and the measured value of the exercise physiological response as an exercise physiological response deviation after correction; and generate, based on the exercise physiological response deviation before correction and the exercise physiological response deviation after correction, a command value for the exercise load so that the exercise physiological response of the exerciser approaches one of the preset target value of the exercise physiological response and the corrected target value of the exercise physiological response, to thereby control the exercise load to be applied to the exerciser.
