Background
Running machines are commonly used exercise equipment, widely used in homes and business gymnastics. In order to reduce the impact force of the running platform, in particular to adjust the vibration reduction and buffering elastic quantity of the running platform, more and more running machines adopt an air bag as an elastic functional supporting component of a running platform running plate.
However, the prior art does not consider that when the airbag is abnormally ruptured, a runner can fall down due to the fact that the running platform loses the airbag support, and particularly the problem that the runner is dangerous under the condition of high speed is solved, and the airbag damping and buffering mechanism has a great potential safety hazard.
The invention of the running board and the running machine for realizing the self-adjustment of the soft hardness of the running board comprises a frame, a running board body, an air bag, a sinking monitor, an infrared light emitting tube, an air bag and a safety hidden trouble, wherein the running board body and the air bag are used for realizing the self-adjustment of the soft hardness of the running board, the running board body is arranged on the frame, the air bag is arranged on the frame, the top of the air bag is propped against the running board body, the sinking monitor and the infrared light emitting tube are used for monitoring the sinking amplitude of the running board body, the hardness of the running board body is regulated by inflating/deflating the air bag according to the monitoring data of the sinking monitor, the air bag is only regulated by automatically according to the detected sinking amplitude, and the infrared emission and the receiving tube are easy to be covered by dust to fail so as not to normally control the air bag pressure.
And as per the running machine with damping function and the self-adaptive adjusting method of damping performance of the running machine, as per the Chinese patent application publication No. CN113663285A, a running platform underframe and a running plate arranged on the running platform underframe are provided, a damping device is arranged between the running plate and the running platform underframe, the damping device comprises an installation seat arranged on the running platform underframe and an air bag arranged in the installation seat, the upper top surface of the air bag is in butt joint or clearance fit with the lower bottom surface of the running plate, an air pressure sensor and an air pump which are communicated with the inside of the air bag are arranged on the running platform underframe, a control valve is arranged on the air bag, and a control system which is in signal connection with the air pump, the control valve and the air pressure sensor is arranged on the running platform underframe. Mainly also through gasbag atmospheric pressure detection, automatically regulated gasbag atmospheric pressure reaches the fat reduction function of adaptation weight, and the potential safety hazard that the gasbag breaks and causes is not considered yet to this patent.
The running machine adopting the air bag type vibration reduction buffer mechanism can achieve good vibration reduction buffer effect by adjusting air bag air pressure, improves running comfort and reduces impact to knees, but because the air bag continuously impacts in the running process, the air bag air pressure is adjusted out of control, or the air bag is aged, or the air bag is broken caused by abnormal conditions such as sharp foreign body collision, the air bag breaks, the running platform loses important supporting parts after the air bag breaks, a runner is easy to fall down, and particularly, the running belt falls down more dangerously in high-speed running. The prior art fails to address this problem.
On the other hand, as more and more people run on the running machine, however, many people will cause sports injuries such as knee injury due to incorrect long-term running posture, such as unbalanced left and right foot landing or body side-to-side swing, or too high recoil force caused by too high soaring. At present, the running posture monitoring and correcting method mainly comprises the steps of hanging and clamping the running posture sensor on a shoe or a waist, but the hanging and clamping method is incorrect and affects the monitoring accuracy due to the fact that the hanging and clamping device is inconvenient to use. In addition, although the professional sports running platform adopts a plurality of cameras to monitor running postures at a plurality of angles, the cost is very high, and the sports running platform cannot be popularized to the public for use.
