[0002] As fitness equipment, treadmills are widely used in various fitness venues. Treadmills are large in size and occupy a large area, which wastes space when not in use. In order to solve the problem of its large footprint, a foldable treadmill is disclosed in the prior art. The foldable treadmill includes front and rear running boards that are hinged to each other and can be folded, an annular running belt that is rotatable on the outer periphery of the front and rear running boards, and a driving control component that controls the transmission of the annular running belt. In the prior art, in order to reduce the inconvenience caused by the hinge seam between the front and rear running boards to exercise, a flexible layer is fixedly provided on the upper surface of the front and rear running boards, and the flexible layer is stretched during the folding process of the front and rear running boards. However, after the flexible layer has been used for too long, the flexible layer is deformed and an irreversible bulge is formed on the surface, which affects the use. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, a running board and a treadmill with a multi-layer cushion structure are provided.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, as a first aspect, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a running board with a multi-layer cushion structure, comprising:

[0005] front running board;

[0006] A rear running board coupled to the front running board, and the two can be folded;

[0007] A buffer layer is laid on the upper surfaces of the front running board and the rear running board, and a longitudinal opening that does not penetrate the upper surface of the buffer layer is formed on the surface facing the upper surface of the front running board and the rear running board; the position of the opening corresponds to the coupling connection between the front running board and the rear running board.

[0019] 2. The segmented buffer layer disclosed in the present invention is segmented at the connection between the front and rear running boards, which not only plays a secondary buffering role, but also leaves a pre-folding activity space at the intervals between the segments, which will not affect the folding action between the front and rear running boards, and reduce the stretching of the buffer layer during the folding process of the running boards, thereby increasing the life of the buffer layer.

[0020] 3.

[0028] The following description is used to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments described below are only examples, and those skilled in the art may think of other obvious variations.

[0029] like Figure 1-4c As shown, the embodiment of the present application discloses a running board with a multi-layer cushion structure, including a front running board component and a rear running board component coupled to the rear end surface of the front running board component, and the two can be folded; in the use state, the two are in a flat state; when not in use, the two are folded, and the rear running board component is folded above the front running board component, thereby reducing the overall floor space and facilitating storage. The front running board component includes a front support frame and a front running board 100 fixed to the front support frame, and the rear running board component includes a rear support frame body foldably connected to the front support frame and a rear running board 200 fixed to the rear support frame body. In order to reduce the wear or noise caused by the hard surface contact of the front running board 100 and the rear running board 200 when they are laid flat, a gasket 600 is arranged on the rear end surface of the front running board 100 and / or the front end surface of the rear running board 200. The gasket 600 is made of elastic material, preferably a silicone gasket; wherein the gasket 600 can be in the shape of a long strip covering the entire end surface, or can be in the shape of a segmented type covering the entire end surface or in the shape of a point, and multiple gaskets can be evenly distributed along the end surface where they are arranged, as long as they can achieve the isolation and shock absorption effect. It mainly plays the role of reducing the noise caused by the gap and improving the flatness.

[0030] In order to solve the problem of low sports comfort caused by the hinged seam between the front running board component and the rear running board component, a segmented buffer layer 300 and an integral buffer layer 400 are laid on the upper surfaces of the front running board 100 and the rear running board 200 from bottom to top. The setting of the integral buffer layer 400 can reduce the friction of the running belt during operation, eliminate movement noise, reduce resistance, and at the same time block the gap between the front running board component and the rear running board component to ensure flatness. It cooperates with the segmented buffer layer 300 to play a role of secondary reinforced buffering, providing a better user experience.

[0031] Specifically, the segmented buffer layer 300 includes a front buffer layer 310 laid on the surface of the front running board 100 and a rear buffer layer 320 laid on the surface of the rear running board 200, with a gap 330 between the two; preferably, the width of the gap 330 is greater than the gap width between the front running board 100 and the rear running board 200, which can play a secondary buffering role, and the gap 330 leaves a pre-folding activity space, which will not limit the folding action between the front running board component and the rear running board component. The segmented buffer layer 400 can also be laid in multiple layers.

[0032] Furthermore, an intermediate buffer layer 500 is laid above the interval 330. The intermediate buffer layer 500 is an integral structure with the front buffer layer 310 and the rear buffer layer 320 which are arranged in sections, and only the edge of the intermediate buffer layer 500 is integrally connected with the corresponding surface of the front buffer layer 310 and the surface of the rear buffer layer 320. Preferably, the integral connection is fixed by gluing. There is no gluing on the surface of the intermediate buffer layer 500 corresponding to the interval 330, and no noise caused by gluing and tearing will occur when folding.

[0033] In the embodiment of the present application, the length of the middle buffer layer 500 is less than the sum of the lengths of the front buffer layer 310 and the rear buffer layer 320 .

[0034] In the embodiment of the present application, the integral buffer layer 400 is made of PET material, which is resistant to high temperature and friction, has a smooth surface, and reduces movement resistance; the segmented buffer layer 300 is made of EVA material, which is elastic and has a good buffering effect.

[0035] It is explained here that the running board with a multi-layer cushion structure disclosed in the embodiment of the present application can be used on a foldable treadmill.

[0036] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not any formal or substantial limitation of the present invention. It should be pointed out that ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several improvements and supplements without departing from the present invention, and these improvements and supplements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention. Any technician familiar with this profession, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, can make some changes, modifications and equivalent changes made by using the technical content disclosed above, which are equivalent embodiments of the present invention; at the same time, any changes, modifications and evolutions of any equivalent changes made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
