[0022] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this embodiment provides a backrest slow-down structure for a fitness bench, including: a rotating shaft damping assembly, a connecting member 6, a seat cushion 7, a backrest 8, a first locking member 9 and a fitness bench body 10, the seat cushion 7 is slidably arranged on the fitness bench body 10, and the backrest 8 is rotatably connected to the seat cushion 7 through a rotating connecting member 82; the rotating shaft damping assembly is arranged in the first rotating inner hole 81 between the seat cushion 7 and the backrest 8, and the end of the rotating shaft damping assembly is connected to the seat cushion 7 through the connecting member 6 and the first locking member 9.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, preferably, the shaft damping assembly of this embodiment includes a main shaft 1, a friction plate 2, a fixing member 3, an elastic gasket 4, and a second locking member 5. A first limiting shaft 11 and a second limiting shaft 12 are respectively provided at both ends of the main shaft 1. The first end of the main shaft 1 is fixedly connected to the connecting member 6 via the first limiting shaft 11; the second end of the second limiting shaft 12 passes through the friction plate 2, the fixing member 3, and the elastic gasket 4 and is fixedly connected to the second locking member 5. When the backrest is lowered, the second limiting shaft 12 ensures that the friction plate 2 always rotates synchronously with the main shaft 1. During the rotation process, the elastic gasket 4, which is locked by the second locking member 5, generates a damping torque to achieve a slow lowering of the backrest 8.

[0025] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the first rotating inner hole 81 refers to the inner hole structure of the rotating connector 82 between the seat cushion 7 and the backrest 8. The rotating connector 82 is preferably arranged in the backrest 8, and the backrest 8 is rotatably connected to the seat cushion 7 via the rotating connector 82. The rotating shaft damping assembly refers to a specifically designed rotating shaft damping assembly that can be directly arranged in the first rotating inner hole 81 to reasonably and efficiently utilize the existing space of the fitness bench. By adding the rotating shaft damping assembly, the connector 6 and the first locking member 9, and adaptively designing the rotating connector 82 between the seat cushion 7 and the backrest 8, the backrest can be effectively slowly lowered. This embodiment can reasonably utilize the existing space without changing the main structure of the existing fitness bench, achieve product upgrades and optimized design, and effectively improve the product's humanized design and user experience.

[0026] like Figure 1As shown, the inner wall of the fixing member 3 of this embodiment is provided with a second rotating inner hole 31, and the fixing member 3 is rotatably connected to the second end of the main shaft 1 through the second rotating inner hole 31, so as to realize the rotation of the main shaft 1 in the fixing member 3. It should be noted that the outer wall of the fixing member 3 is provided with an anti-rotation structure, which includes a polygonal shape, including but not limited to a hexagonal or quadrilateral shape, to prevent the fixing member 3 from rotating itself; at this time, the inner wall structure and size of the first rotating inner hole 81 are preferably matched with the outer wall structure and size of the fixing member 3, so that in the first rotating inner hole 81, the fixing member 3 does not rotate, while the main shaft 1 in the fixing member 3 rotates, and drives the synchronous rotation of the friction plate 2, and the elastic gasket 4 generates a damping torque under the pressure of the second locking member 5 to realize the backrest slow-down function.

[0027] Preferably, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the elastic gasket 4 of this embodiment comprises multiple overlapping gaskets. Under the pressure of the second locking member 5, the elastic gasket 4 generates a damping torque. The second locking member 5 preferably employs a nut structure with an internal thread. The number of elastic gaskets 4 can be adjusted according to actual conditions and needs, ensuring sufficient installation and adjustment space for the second locking member 5.

[0028] Preferably, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, both the first limiting shaft 11 and the second limiting shaft 12 utilize a flat shaft structure, with symmetrical limiting planes on either side of the flat shaft structure, and an arcuate axis disposed between the limiting planes. In other words, the flat shaft structure does not utilize a traditional cylindrical shaft body, but instead utilizes a flat shaft having both limiting planes and an arcuate axis. This allows for both a position-limiting connection with the friction plate 2 and a rotational connection with the fixing member 3, resulting in a simpler and more efficient overall structural design.

[0029] Correspondingly, such as Figure 1 As shown, a limiting hole 21 is provided in the middle of the friction plate 2 in this embodiment, and the shape and size of the limiting hole match the shape and size of the flat shaft structure of the second limiting shaft 12 to ensure that the friction plate 2 always rotates synchronously with the main shaft 1.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the main shaft 1 of this embodiment is further provided with a threaded fixing end 13 , which is arranged at the end of the second limiting shaft 12 away from the first limiting shaft 11 , and the second locking member 5 is connected to the threaded fixing end 13 .

[0031] It is worth noting that, since the damping torque generated by the elastic gasket 4 is affected by the pressure of the second locking member 5, it is preferred that Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the length of the threaded fixing end 13 in this embodiment is greater than the thickness of the second locking member 5, so that the second locking member 5 can be fixed at different positions of the threaded fixing end 13 to provide different pressure effects. This embodiment can adjust the damping torque generated by the elastic gasket 4 by adjusting the position of the second locking member 5 on the threaded fixing end 13, and then control the slow descent speed of the backrest 8 to meet different practical application requirements. In actual applications, if you want the damping torque for slow descent to be larger, that is, the descent speed of the backrest 8 to be slower, you only need to further tighten the second locking member 5; on the contrary, if you want the damping torque for slow descent to be smaller, that is, the descent speed of the backrest 8 to be faster, you need to loosen the second locking member 5. The adjustment process is simple and efficient, and no additional adjustment structure is required.

[0032] The friction plates 2 of this embodiment are multiple in number, and the multiple friction plates 2 are arranged at any one or more locations including between the main shaft 1 and the fixing member 3, between the fixing member 3 and the elastic gasket 4, and between the elastic gasket 4 and the second locking member 5. Preferably, as Figure 1 As shown, the friction plates 2 are provided between the main shaft 1 and the fixing member 3, between the fixing member 3 and the elastic gasket 4, and between the elastic gasket 4 and the second locking member 5 to ensure the friction force and the reliability of the slow-descent structure.

[0033] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the connector 6 of this embodiment includes a connected rotating shaft 61 and a locking seat 62. The limiting inner hole 63 of the rotating shaft 61 is connected to the first limiting shaft 11 of the main shaft 1, and the locking seat 62 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the seat cushion 7 via the first locking member 9. The shape and size of the limiting inner hole 63 match the shape and size of the flat shaft structure of the first limiting shaft 11 to ensure the reliability of their synchronous rotation. The connector 6 is the connection structure between the rotating shaft damping assembly and the seat cushion 7. The first locking member 9 can adopt a variety of locking structures such as screws, bolts, or bolts, and the selection is based on actual assembly requirements.

[0034] The specific implementation methods described above are preferred implementation methods of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the specific implementation scope of the present invention. The scope of the present invention includes but is not limited to the specific implementation methods. All equivalent changes made in accordance with the shape and structure of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
