Detailed Implementation
[0031] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding of this utility model, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0032] This utility model provides a water resistance rowing device, such as Figures 1-3As shown, the device includes a support frame 100, which is elongated. A slide rail 110 is provided on the support frame 100, and a seat 200 is slidably connected to the slide rail 110. A foot pedal 600 is also fixedly connected to the support frame 100. The foot pedal 600 includes foot pedals located on the left and right sides of the support frame 100. When exercising, the exerciser sits on the seat 200, with both feet on the corresponding foot pedals to avoid contact between the feet and the ground. The exerciser holds onto the handhold 520, which will be described in detail below. By pulling the handhold 520, the seat 200 slides along the slide rail 110, thereby achieving the purpose of exercising arm strength.
[0033] The support frame 100 is also fixedly connected to the water resistance box 300 and the transmission part 400 for transmitting motion. The transmission part 400 applies the resistance of the water resistance box 300 to the exerciser. The transmission part 400 is provided with a resilient hand grip structure 500 for the exerciser to hold. The resilient hand grip structure 500 includes a hollow tube 510 and a hand grip 520 disposed on the outside of the hollow tube 510. The hollow tube 510 is preferably a hollow square tube. An elastic band 530 is provided inside the hollow tube 510. One end of the elastic band 530 is fixedly connected to the hand grip 520, and the other end passes through the hollow structure of the hollow tube 510 and is connected to the transmission part 400. The water resistance tank 300 is filled with liquid. The exerciser sits on the seat 200 with both feet on the corresponding footrests 600 and hands holding the handles 520. By pulling the handles 520, the exerciser leans back, and the elastic band 530 stretches under the exerciser's pulling force. The exerciser's hips move the seat 200 towards the water resistance tank 300. The elastic band 530 rebounds with its own elasticity, pulling the exerciser's upper body towards the water resistance tank 300. The hips move the seat 200 away from the water resistance tank 300 along the length of the support frame 100, thus completing one reciprocating exercise.
[0034] The transmission unit 400 includes a wheel 410 and a belt 420 wound around the outer circumference of the wheel 410. One end of the belt 420 is fixedly connected to an elastic belt 530, and the other end of the elastic belt 530 is fixedly connected to the output end of the transmission unit 400. A connecting shaft connected to the center of the wheel 410 is connected to a rotating shaft 700 inside the water resistance box 300, thereby connecting the transmission unit 400 and the blade adjustment structure inside the water resistance box 300. Preferably, the belt 420 is a multi-wedge belt. Specifically, the teeth are arranged in parallel along the length of the belt. Correspondingly, the grooves on the outer circumference of the wheel 410 are annular grooves, with multiple grooves distributed along the axial direction of the outer circumference of the wheel 410. The annular grooves of the wheel 410 mesh with the teeth of the belt 420. Compared with existing synchronous belts, the multi-wedge belt and the wheel 410 work together to make the transmission unit more stable and less prone to lateral wobbling of the wheel 410 in the axial direction.
[0035] Furthermore, the bottom of the support bracket 100 is provided with a support 120. There are two supports 120, located on both sides of the length of the support bracket 100. Because the rowing machine is heavy, in order to avoid friction on the placement surface and cause wear, a friction pad 121 is provided at the bottom of the support 120 to prevent the support 120 from directly contacting the placement surface. During exercise, the friction between the support 120 and the placement surface is reduced, thus reducing damage to the placement surface.
[0036] To facilitate the movement and transport of the rowing machine, a pulley 122 is installed on or near the top surface of the support 120. One pulley 122 may be used, but preferably, for ease of dragging, pulleys 122 are used in pairs. In use, lifting the other end of the support bracket 100 brings the pulley 122 into contact with the ground, and pulling the support bracket 100 allows the pulley 122 to slide on the ground, moving the support bracket 100 to a new position, thus saving time and effort in transporting the machine.
[0037] In order to increase water resistance and adapt to the load requirements of different athletes, a rotating shaft 700 is provided inside the water resistance box 300. One end of the rotating shaft 700 is connected to the transmission part 400, and the other end is connected to the rear cover of the water resistance box 300. A first bevel gear set 710 and a second bevel gear set 720 are fitted around the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 700. The second bevel gear set 720 is a single unit and is located at one end of the rotating shaft 700 near the rear cover. The first bevel gear set 710 is located between the second bevel gear set 720 and the transmission part 400. The first bevel gear set 710 includes a first bevel gear 711 and a long connecting shaft 712. The long connecting shaft 712 has a hollow structure, and both ends of it are connected to the first bevel gear 711. A blade 800 is connected around the outer periphery of the bevel gear set 710. One end of the blade 800 is provided with a second bevel gear 810 that meshes with the first bevel gear 711. The second bevel gear set 720 includes a short connecting shaft 721 and the first bevel gear 711 connected to both ends of the short connecting shaft 721. The length of the short connecting shaft 721 is shorter than the length of the long connecting shaft 712. Preferably, the blades 800 are configured in three groups, with each group consisting of two blades symmetrically arranged about the axis of rotation 700.
[0038] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 700 is a round shaft, which is easy to process. Two opposing keyways extending along its length are provided on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 700. Correspondingly, a sleeve is provided on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 700. The inner wall of the sleeve has protrusions that match the keyways, so as to realize the mating connection between the rotating shaft 700 and the sleeve. The relative position of the rotating shaft 700 and the sleeve will not change during the rotation process, thereby improving the accuracy of adjusting the blade.
[0039] To facilitate adjustment of the rotation angle of the first bevel gear set 710 and the second bevel gear set 720, a rotary locking switch 310 is connected to the housing of the water resistance tank 300. The top of the rotary locking switch 310 is located above the housing of the water resistance tank 300. The top of the rotary locking switch 310 has a knob 311. The bottom of the rotary locking switch 310 is provided with a third bevel gear 311 that meshes with the first bevel gear 711 connected to the short connecting shaft 721 via a connecting rod 312. Rotating the knob 311 causes the third bevel gear 311 to drive the first bevel gear 711 connected to the short connecting shaft 721 to rotate, which in turn drives the blade 800 to rotate through the first bevel gear set 710, and locks the angle after rotation. The rotation angle range is 0°-360°. By changing the angle of the blade 800, the resistance of the liquid in the water resistance tank 300 is increased, thereby adjusting the load of the water resistance tank 300.
[0040] Furthermore, the connecting rod 312 of the rotary locking switch 310 has a hollow structure and is segmented, with the upper segment fitted around the outer periphery of the lower segment. The connecting rod 312 has a water injection hole 3121. When water needs to be injected, the connecting rod 312 is pulled upward, and the third bevel gear 311 disengages from the first bevel gear 711 connected to the short connecting shaft 721. The bottom of the connecting rod 312 is open, and water is injected into the water resistance box 300 through the water injection hole 3121. The water enters the water resistance box 300 through the bottom of the connecting rod 312, thus injecting water into the water resistance box 300. After the water is injected, the connecting rod 312 is pushed downward, so that the third bevel gear 311 meshes with the first bevel gear 711 connected to the short connecting shaft 721.
