Operating
principle
The patient pushes the pedals with their feet. The operator can
increase the workload using the Up and Down Key on the console.
When the workload change is requested an electromagnet is
energized at eld strengths relative to the workload requested. The
magnetic eld generated by the coil is induced into a ywheel
creating eddy currents to ow in the ywheel. The eddy currents then
create an opposing magnetic eld to the electromagnetic eld
creating more or less resistance at the pedal, determined by
workload setting by the operator.
