CA 2702640

An apparatus and method for determining the power of a user of an exercise cycle (10) by measuring an RPM and resistance level achieved by the user in combination with a predetermined relationship. The RPM may be measured by sensing the rotation of, for example, a driving wheel (30) or flywheel (32) of the exercise cycle (10). The resistance level experienced by the user may be varied by an eddy current braking system. The eddy current braking system may include a pair of magnets (70, 72) that sweep across the face of the flywheel (32) to thereby vary the experienced resistance level.

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant de déterminer la puissance d'un utilisateur de vélo d'appartement (10) en mesurant les tours/minute et le niveau de résistance atteints par l'utilisateur en combinaison avec une relation prédéterminée. Les tours/minute peuvent être mesurés en détectant la rotation, par exemple, d'une roue d'entraînement (30) ou d'un volant cinétique (32) du vélo d'appartement. Le niveau de résistance ressenti par l'utilisateur peut être modifié par un système de freinage à courant tourbillonnant. Le système de freinage à courant tourbillonnant peut comprendre deux aimants (70, 72) balayant la face du volant cinétique (32) de manière à modifier le niveau de résistance ressenti.
