The other end of the first connecting member 21 is connected to the positioning member 1, and the other end of the second connecting member 22 is a gravity portion 221.
[0038] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 When the running platform 20 of the treadmill 100 is laid flat, the gravity portion 221 of the second connecting member 22 drives the first connecting member 21 to rotate under the action of gravity, driving the positioning member 1 away from the plane where the motion trajectory of the handrail 30 is located;
[0039] See also Figure 5 and Figure 7When the treadmill 100 running platform 20 is placed vertically, the gravity portion 221 of the second connecting member 22 moves in the opposite direction of gravity, and links the first connecting member 21 to rotate, driving the positioning member 1 to approach the plane where the movement trajectory of the armrest 30 is located, and limiting the folded armrest 30.
[0040] By setting the swinging member 2, when the gravity portion 221 moves under the action of gravity as the treadmill 100 running platform 20 switches between the horizontal and vertical states, the positioning member 1 can be automatically linked to move away from or close to the plane where the movement trajectory of the armrest 30 is located, so that the armrest 30 can be quickly limited or released, thereby preventing the armrest 30 from falling over when the armrest 30 is folded into the running platform 20 and the running platform 20 is placed upright against the wall. The structure is simple, stable and reliable, which can effectively improve the safety of product use, and the product is easy to use, and there is no need to fix the armrest 30 as troublesome as the existing structure.
[0041] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 6 The angle between the swing member 2 and the plane where the treadmill 20 is located is 45°. Of course, the angle range can be selected within the range of about 35°-55°.
