Abstract

The invention relates to a folding treadmill, comprising: the running table is fixed on the base and is provided with a running belt; two supporting rods, one end of which is respectively pivoted on the main body; each support rod can rotate between a first position and a second position along the axial direction of the support rod, and can be turned to a folding position towards the running platform or turned to an unfolding position away from the running platform; when the supporting rod is located at the first position and the unfolding position, the treadmill is in the unfolding state, and when the supporting rod is located at the second position and the folding position, the treadmill is in the folding state. The invention solves the inconvenience that the whole running platform needs to be moved when the conventional running machine is folded, so that a person with small strength can easily operate the running platform, and the running platform can be horizontally placed on the ground in an unfolded or folded state without toppling.

Description

folding treadmill

technical field

The invention relates to sports equipment, in particular to a folding treadmill.

Background technique

A kind of conventional foldable treadmill 80 as shown in Figure 1, it has a base 82, extends two upright rods 84 on it (only shows one upright rod among the figure). A panel 86 is mounted on top of the two upright poles 84 . A running platform 88, its front end is pivotally arranged on the base 82, so that the running platform 88 can be placed on the ground, or turned upwards (shown by dotted lines in the figure), and is in a folded state.

When folding or unfolding the treadmill, the entire treadmill must be reversed. Because the weight of the treadmill is not light, it is a strenuous movement for women or children with low strength.

Detailed ways

In order to illustrate the structure and features of the present invention in detail, the following preferred embodiments are given below together with the accompanying drawings.

As shown in Figure 2, the folding treadmill provided by the present invention includes:

A main body 10 includes a base 12 and a running platform 34 . The base 12 has a U-shaped bracket 14 and a cross bar 16 connected to two ends of the bracket 14 . The bottom of the bracket 14 is provided with two legs 18 , two wheels 20 (only one of which is shown in the figure), and two pivotal seats 22 . Each pivot seat 22 has a U-shaped body with an opening 24 and three holes 26 , 28 , 30 (as shown in FIG. 6 ). A hook 32 is respectively disposed on the brackets 14 . Running platform 34, its front section is fixed on the base 12. The running platform 34 has a running belt 36 which rotates under the drive of a motor (not shown).

Two poles 38, one end is respectively pivotally arranged on the two pivot seats 22 of the base 12, can be in a first position (as shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 ) and a second position (as shown in Fig. 4 ) along its axial direction d. , as shown in FIG. 5 ), and flip between an unfolded position (as shown in FIGS. 2 to 4 ) and a folded position (as shown in FIG. 5 ). Each strut 38 has a bend 40 which, in the unfolded state, has the function of an armrest. Each strut 38 has a connecting end 42 at its outer end.

As shown in FIG. 6 , two slots 44 are formed at the bottom of each pole 38 , and a hole 46 and a screw hole 48 are formed above the slots 44 . A screw 50 passes through the pivot joint 22 and the second slot 44 of the pole 38 and is locked into the treadmill 34, so that the pole 38 can rotate and turn over. A spring buckle 52 is installed in the pole 38 . As shown in FIG. 7 , the snap buckle 52 has a buckle portion 54 and a U-shaped reed 56 . The buckle 54 protrudes from the hole 46 of the pole 38. When the pole 38 moves to the unfolded position and the pole 38 rotates to the first position and the second position, the buckle 54 of the elastic buckle 52 can be respectively connected with the pivot seat. Two holes 26 and 28 of 22 are embedded in cards, which play the role of positioning. In addition, when the pole 38 rotates to the first position, the screw hole 48 of the pole 38 can correspond to the hole 28 of the pivot seat 22 , and a bolt 58 can be locked in at this time to fix the pole 38 .

A panel 60 has components (not shown in the figure) such as a screen and control keys on it, and a circuit board (not shown in the figure) inside. As shown in FIG. 8 , the bottom end of the panel 60 has two holes 62 (only one is shown in the figure), and the connecting ends 42 of the two poles 38 can be inserted into the two holes 62 of the panel 60 , and locked into and fixed with a screw 64 . An electric wire 66 passes through the pole 38, and one end is connected to the circuit board (not shown) of the motor in the treadmill 34, and the other end is stretched out from the connection end 42, and is connected to the circuit board by a plug 68 and a socket 70 An extended electric wire 72 . Thus, the panel 60 can control the running state of the motor.

FIG. 2 shows that the present invention is in an unfolded state, the two poles 38 rotate to the unfolded position and the first position, and the panel 60 is fixed on the two poles 38 . When the present invention is to be folded, first the panel 60 and the two bolts 50 are unloaded (as shown in Figure 3), then the two poles 38 are rotated to the second position (as shown in Figure 4), and then the two poles are 38 is overturned to the retracted position, and two hooks 32 are hooked to two poles 38 (as shown in Figure 5). In this way, the treadmill is in a folded state. When the two poles 38 turn over to the retracted position, one end of the two poles 38 will enter the opening 24 of the two pivotal seats 22 (as shown in FIG. 9 ). In actual operation, the two poles 38 can rotate from the first position to the second position at the same time during the process of flipping from the unfolded position to the folded position. When changing the treadmill from the folded state to the unfolded state, just perform the above steps in reverse order.

In summary, the present invention only needs to move the pole 38 when unfolding and collapsing, instead of moving the entire treadmill 34 like a conventional folding treadmill. Therefore, people with less strength like women or children can also easily operate the treadmill provided by the present invention. In addition, the running platform 34 of the treadmill provided by the present invention is placed flat on the ground no matter in the unfolded or folded state, so there is no problem of tipping over.
