[0045] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 , armrests 11 are provided on both sides of the seat 1.

[0046] In one embodiment, see Figure 1-Figure 3 The elderly rehabilitation fitness chair also includes a display mechanism 5, which includes a display screen 51, and the display screen 51 is installed on the front upper part of the seat 1.

[0047] In one embodiment, see Figure 1-Figure 3The display mechanism 5 also includes an outer sleeve 52, an inner sleeve 53 and a locking screw 54. One end of the outer sleeve 52 is fixed to the mounting bracket 2. A locking screw hole is provided on the outer sleeve 52. One end of the inner sleeve 53 is slidably inserted into the other end of the outer sleeve 52. The other end of the inner sleeve 53 is fixedly connected to the display screen 51. The locking screw 54 is threadedly inserted into the locking screw hole. One end of the locking screw 54 is used to abut against the outer wall of the inner sleeve 53. When in use, the locking screw 54 can be loosened and the height of the inner sleeve 53 can be adjusted to adjust the height of the display screen 51, and then the locking screw 54 can be tightened.

[0048] In order to better understand the present invention, the following Figures 1 to 7 The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail: the user first powers on the fitness chair, sits on the seat 1, and selects a training mode suitable for them using the display screen 51. The system automatically adjusts training parameters, primarily the speeds of the upper drive motor 315 and the lower drive motor 413, based on preset or user-entered personal information (such as age, physical condition, and training goals). The user then holds the handles 32 with both hands. Elderly individuals can then perform push, pull, and rotate the handles as needed to strengthen their upper limb muscles and increase flexibility. Simultaneously, the display screen 51 displays real-time movement data and visual feedback, helping them understand their training progress and effectiveness. The user also places their feet on the footrests 42 and performs movements such as pedaling, flexion, and extension to strengthen their lower limb muscles. Training modes may also require elderly individuals to perform simultaneous upper and lower limb movements to improve coordination and balance. For example, in simulated walking training, elderly individuals are required to move their arms and legs simultaneously to simulate real walking movements. The display screen 51 presents various visual stimuli and cognitive tasks, such as number memory and color recognition. The elderly need to concentrate on completing these tasks to exercise the brain's cognitive function and reaction speed. At the same time, these tasks will be combined with the movements of the hands and feet to form a comprehensive training effect.

[0049] The specific embodiments of the present invention described above do not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made based on the technical concept of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
