Definitions

  • the invention relates to an electric treadmill with a folding mechanism by use of two swivel pieces, and more particularly, to a treadmill that permits a stable support in a folded-up position. Moreover, the entire volume of the treadmill in the folded-up position is effectively reduced.
  • An object of the invention is to provide an electric treadmill with a folding mechanism that employs two swivel pieces such that the folded-up assembly is concentrated possibly toward the front end of the base frame for considerably reducing the entire volume in the folded-up position. Meanwhile, the folding peak of the base frame is at an optimal folding angle perpendicular to the ground. Therefore, the concerns about safety may be eliminated. In addition, the support stability of the base frame is increased.
  • an electric treadmill with a folding mechanism by use of two swivel pieces includes a handrail frame mounted at both sides of the front end of the base frame.
  • a base frame swivel piece is pivotally positioned at both sides near the front part of the bottom of the base frame, respectively.
  • a handrail frame swivel piece is pivotally disposed near the bottom of the handrail frames, respectively.
  • a pull rod is pivotally interposed between the swivel pieces.
  • a movable support with ground-touching rollers is pivotally coupled to a cross shaft of the base frame swivel pieces.
  • the movable support is constantly biased by a telescopic supporting element. In this way, an action bar of the telescopic supporting element pushes the movable support forward when the base frame is folded upwards. Meanwhile, the ground-touching rollers are constantly in contact with the ground. Accordingly, a stable folded-up position is achieved.
  • a treadmill 10 includes a continuous moving belt 13 positioned around a base frame 11 and driven by an electric motor 12.
  • a handrail frame 14 is mounted at both sides of the front end of the base frame 11, respectively.
  • the bottom of the front end of the base frame 21 is provided with a front support frame 16 driven by a lifting motor 15 for adjusting the supporting angle of the base frame 11 that stands for the exercise slope.
  • several ground-touching elements 17 are fitted to the bottom of the rear side of the base frame 11.
  • a base frame swivel piece 18 is pivotally positioned at both sides near the front part of the bottom of the base frame 11, respectively. Meanwhile, a handrail frame swivel piece 19 is pivotally disposed near the bottom of the handrail frames 14, respectively.
  • a pull rod 20 is pivotally interposed between the swivel pieces 18, 19.
  • a movable support 23 with ground-touching rollers 22 is pivotally coupled to a cross shaft 21 of the base frame swivel pieces 18.
  • the movable support 23 is constantly biased by a telescopic supporting element 24. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 , the action bar 25 of the telescopic supporting element 24 pushes the movable support 23 forward when the base frame 11 is folded upwards in a stable folded-up position. Meanwhile, the ground-touching rollers 22 are constantly in contact with the ground.
  • a locking assembly 30 for locking the movable support 23 in place is positioned at the bottom of the base frame 11.
  • the locking assembly 30 includes a handle 31, an insertion shaft 32 passing through a cross bar 111 at the bottom of the base frame 11, and an elastic element 33.
  • the insertion shaft 32 fits into a lock element 26 on the movable support 23.
  • the handle 31 In folding-up the base frame 11, the handle 31 has to be pulled to disengage the insertion shaft 32 from the lock element 26 in a release position. In this way, the use safety is ensured.
