[0031] To make the purposes, features, and advantages of the present disclosure more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative work shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
[0032] According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 1-7 As shown, the utility model provides a foldable treadmill, comprising:
[0033] The main structure 1 has an unfolded state and a folded state;
[0034] The shell structure 2 is arranged on the outside of the main structure 1, and the shell structure 2 is configured to be able to synchronously follow the main structure 1 to switch between the expanded state and the folded state; when the main structure 1 and the shell structure 2 are both in the expanded state, the shell structure 2 can fix and support the main structure 1, and when the main structure 1 and the shell structure 2 are both in the folded state, the shell structure 2 is covered on the outside of the main structure 1.
[0035] The main structure 1 of the foldable treadmill of the present application is foldable, and when in the folded state, the outer shell structure 2 can be wrapped around the outside of the main structure 1, thereby storing the main structure 1 while protecting the main structure 1 and preventing damage. It also prevents people from accidentally colliding with the main structure 1 and causing harm to the human body. The outer shell structure 2 of the present application is simple and convenient, and when in the unfolded state, it can fix and support the main structure 1, ensuring the stability of the main structure 1 when working. By providing the outer shell structure 2, the foldable treadmill of the present application can fold and store the main structure 1 of the foldable treadmill inside, making the foldable treadmill highly portable.
[0036] In one possible implementation, Figure 2-5 As shown, the main structure 1 includes a frame assembly 11, which includes a first folding frame 111 and a second folding frame 112 spliced along the length direction of the treadmill, and the rear end surface of the first folding frame 111 and the front end surface of the second folding frame 112 are in contact with each other;
[0037] The outer shell structure 2 includes a first shell 21 and a second shell 22 that are hingedly connected. The first shell 21 is arranged below the first folding frame 111 and is detachably connected to the first folding frame 111 through a first connecting member 211; the second shell 22 is arranged below the second folding frame 112 and is detachably connected to the second folding frame 112 through a second connecting member 221.
[0038] For example, two first folding frames 111 are provided in parallel, and two second folding frames 112 are provided in parallel. The two first folding frames 111 and the two second folding frames 112 are connected by a plurality of transverse connecting rods. The first folding frames 111 and the second folding frames 112 form the skeleton structure of the entire folding treadmill, serving as the mounting base for the front and rear running decks, rollers, and drive components. The first and second folding frames are provided with front and rear running decks, respectively. The folding treadmill of the present application also includes an endless running belt that is tactilely and intermittently mounted on the front and rear running decks. The phrase "the endless running belt is tactilely and intermittently mounted on the front and rear running decks" means: first, the endless running belt accommodates the front and rear running decks, and when in its original position without any external forces, a gap exists between the endless running belt and the front and rear running decks, preventing direct contact; and second, the endless running belt is tactilely and intermittently mounted around the front and rear running decks, i.e., it rotates around the front and rear running decks. Furthermore, when the user steps on the circular running belt, the circular running belt will adaptively contact the front and rear running boards. Since the first folding frame 111 and the second folding frame 112 are simply spliced along the length of the folding treadmill, they do not need to be connected by hinges, saving process steps and production costs. There is no need for a flexible layer connection between the front and rear running boards as in the prior art. In this embodiment, the front and rear running boards are directly and rigidly connected to the first and second folding frames, increasing the strength and service life of the front and rear running boards. The entire folding treadmill only needs to be provided with a shell structure 2 to fix and support the first and second folding frames when working flat. When folding, the shell structure 2 only needs to be folded, thereby driving the first and second folding frames to fold and store the main structure 1 inside. The entire process is simple and convenient, making the folding treadmill easy to carry.
[0039] For example, the rear end surface of the front running board and the front end surface of the rear running board are butted against each other; or, a gap is left between the rear end surface of the front running board and the front end surface of the rear running board. When the adjacent end surfaces of the front / rear running boards are butted against each other, the gap problem between the front / rear running boards is solved. Of course, it is also possible to leave a certain gap between the front / rear running boards and set rollers in the gap to support the endless running belt. Figure 4 As shown, a roller support frame is fixedly mounted on the first folding frame and the first connecting block, and a roller is mounted on the roller support frame. The roller is arranged in the gap and is used to support the endless running belt.
[0040] For example, the first connecting member 211 is disposed along the length direction of the first folding frame 111 ; and the second connecting member 221 is disposed along the length direction of the second folding frame 112 .
[0041] Furthermore, the first connecting member 211 is a plate-like structure, with its upper and lower surfaces abutting the bottom inner surface of the first housing 21 and the bottom surface of the first folding frame 111. A first mounting hole 15 is defined through the first housing 21, the first connecting member 211, and the first folding frame 111. The first mounting hole 15 is removably connected to a fixing member. Furthermore, for ease of installation, the first mounting hole 15 can also extend through the front running board, allowing the fixing member to securely connect the front running board, the first folding frame, the first connecting member, and the first housing.
[0042] The second connecting member 221 is a plate-like structure, with its upper and lower surfaces abutting the bottom inner surface of the second housing 22 and the bottom surface of the second folding frame 112. A second mounting hole 16 is defined through the second housing 22, the second connecting member 221, and the second folding frame 112. The second mounting hole 16 is removably connected to a fixing member. Furthermore, for ease of installation, the second mounting hole 16 can also extend through the rear running board, allowing a fixing member to securely connect the rear running board, the second folding frame, the second connecting member, and the second housing. The fixing member can be a threaded member such as a screw or bolt.
[0043] For example, the first housing 21 and the second housing 22 may be connected by a hinge, such as a hinge. The first housing and the second housing may be hingedly connected by existing technology, which will not be described in detail here.
[0044] For example, the outer surfaces of the first shell 21 and the second shell 22 are paved with a flexible buffer layer, so that when the outer shell structure is in a folded state, the end surfaces of the first shell and the second shell touch each other to form a box structure, such as Figure 6-7 As shown, the flexible buffer layer is provided on the outer surface of the first / second shell, which can reduce the damage caused by the shell structure to the human body when the shell structure is accidentally bumped by the user. Furthermore, the flexible buffer layer can be provided on the outer surface of the first / second shell by bonding.
[0045] In one possible implementation, Figure 4-5 As shown, the main structure 1 further includes a driving assembly 12 , which is mounted on the free end of the first folding frame 111 ; a wear-resistant layer 18 is provided between the driving assembly 12 and the first shell 21 .
[0046] For example, the wear-resistant layer 18 is provided between the mounting shell 121 of the drive assembly 12 and the first housing 21 by bonding. The wear-resistant layer is used to protect the drive assembly 12 and increase the connection area between the mounting shell 121 of the drive assembly and the first housing 21, so that the outer shell structure 2 can further fix the main structure 1.
[0047] For example, the main structure 1 further includes a roller 13 , which is installed at the front end of the mounting shell 121 of the driving assembly. A first avoidance opening 212 for avoiding the roller 13 is opened at a corresponding position of the first shell 21 .
[0048] For example, the main structure 1 further includes a plurality of foot pads, including a first foot pad 14 and a second foot pad 19. The first foot pad 14 is located at the connection position between the first and second folding frames. The first foot pad 14 is connected to the rear end of the first folding frame 111 via a first connecting block 141, and is connected to the front end of the second folding frame 112 via a second connecting block 142. The end surfaces of the first connecting block 141 and the second connecting block 142 abut against each other. The second foot pad 19 is located around the first and second folding frames. The second foot pad 19 is directly connected to the first and second folding frames via a connecting shaft. A second avoidance opening 213 is provided at the corresponding positions of the first shell 21 and the second shell 22. The second avoidance opening 213 is used to avoid the first foot pad 14 and the second foot pad 19. When the main structure 1 is fixed in the outer shell structure 2, the bottom surfaces of the first connecting block 141 and the second connecting block 142 abut against the inner surface of the shell bottom.
[0049] For example, the bottom surface of the foot pad is located below the bottom surface of the first shell and the second shell. Specifically, the first foot pad 14 and the second foot pad 19 are both located below the bottom surface of the first / second shell. When the first foot pad 14 and the second foot pad 19 are supported on the ground, the first shell and the second shell are at a distance from the ground, that is, the outer shell structure is suspended above the ground.
[0050] Alternatively, the bottom surfaces of the foot pads (including the first and second foot pads) are arranged at the same horizontal plane as the bottom surfaces of the first shell 21 and the bottom surfaces of the second shell 22. Thus, when the first / second shells and the main structure are in the unfolded state, the foot pads, the first shell, and the second shell are all in contact with the ground, further ensuring the stability of the treadmill in the unfolded state. When the first shell 21 and the second shell 22 are in the unfolded state, the angle between the first shell 21 and the second shell 22 is 180°.
[0051] For example, the first shell 21 and the second shell 22 are further provided with running wheels, which can assist the outer shell structure 2 in walking. Of course, the running wheels can be configured as retractable running wheels, so that when the outer shell structure 2 is in the unfolded state, the running wheels are not in contact with the ground, and when the outer shell structure 2 is in the folded and stored state, the running wheels are extended so that the running wheels contact the ground, thereby assisting the user in pushing the treadmill for walking.
