[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Example:

[0024] Please see Figure 1-6 An adjustable handrail walking machine includes a walking machine body, with a handrail position set at the upper front side of the walking machine body. The handrail position includes a liftable handrail 8. A lifting mechanism for adjusting the lifting of the handrail 8 is set at the lower middle front side of the walking machine body. Hinged slide bars 12 are rotatably connected to both sides of the top of the walking machine body. Both hinged slide bars 12 are guided and slidably engaged with the two ends of the handrail 8.

[0025] Specifically, the lifting mechanism includes an L-shaped rod sleeve 6 fixedly installed at the bottom of the walking machine body, a lifting slide rod 7 fixedly installed at the bottom of the middle position of the handrail 8, which slides and cooperates with the lifting guide of the L-shaped rod sleeve 6, and a locking component is provided at the top of the L-shaped rod sleeve 6 to lock the lifting slide rod 7. Through the locking component, the lifting slide rod 7 can be easily locked at any height on the L-shaped rod sleeve 6, thereby adjusting the height of the handrail 8.

[0026] Specifically, the locking assembly includes a positioning rod 10 that slides horizontally with the top of the L-shaped sleeve 6. A pull block 9 is fixedly installed at one end of the positioning rod 10, and a spring 11 is sleeved on the positioning rod 10. The two ends of the spring 11 are fixedly connected to the pull block 9 and the L-shaped sleeve 6, respectively. Multiple positioning holes that slide with the positioning rod 10 are opened from top to bottom on the lifting slide rod 7. By pulling the pull block 9 outward, the positioning rod 10 can be pulled out from the positioning holes, thereby adjusting the height of the handrail 8. Then, by releasing the pull block 9, the positioning rod 10 passes through the positioning holes aligned with its position under the action of the spring 11, thereby locking the lifting slide rod 7 in place.

[0027] Specifically, the walking machine body includes a walking frame 1 with a fixed base 2 fixedly installed at the bottom. Two walking rotating rods 3 are symmetrically rotatably connected to the top two sides of the walking frame 1. Foot pedals 4 are set at the bottom of the two walking rotating rods 3 at opposite positions. The two foot pedals 4 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the L-shaped bar sleeve 6. Through the foot pedals 4, walking rotating rods 3, fixed base 2 and walking frame 1, walking fitness activities are convenient. The fact that the two foot pedals 4 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the L-shaped bar sleeve 6 helps to prevent the legs from hitting the L-shaped bar sleeve 6 when walking.

[0028] Specifically, the foot pedal 4 is mounted to the walking rotating rod 3 via a flange, and the top and bottom of the foot pedal 4 are provided with embedded foot pedal grooves 5. The foot pedal 4 is mounted to the walking rotating rod 3 via a flange, which facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the foot pedal 4. Furthermore, the two embedded foot pedal grooves 5 may have different or the same specifications. When the specifications are different, it is convenient to use foot pedals of different sizes.

[0029] Specifically, both ends of the handrail 8 are fixedly equipped with limiting rings 13 that slide in cooperation with the hinged slide bar 12. The limiting rings 13 facilitate the limiting of the hinged slide bar 12 and prevent the hinged slide bar 12 from separating from the handrail 8.

[0030] It should be noted that the terms "one embodiment," "embodiment," "exemplary embodiment," "some embodiments," etc., mentioned in the specification indicate that the described embodiment may include a specific feature, structure, or characteristic, but not every embodiment necessarily includes that specific feature, structure, or characteristic. Furthermore, such phrases do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Moreover, when a specific feature, structure, or characteristic is described in connection with an embodiment, implementing such a feature, structure, or characteristic in conjunction with other embodiments, whether explicitly described or not, is within the knowledge scope of those skilled in the art.

[0031] It should be readily understood that “on,” “above,” and “on top of” in this disclosure should be interpreted in the broadest manner, such that “on” means not only “directly on something” but also “on something” with an intermediate feature or layer therebetween, and that “above” or “on top of” means not only “on something” but also “on something” without an intermediate feature or layer therebetween (i.e., directly on something).

[0032] Furthermore, for ease of explanation, spatially relative terms such as "below," "below," "under," "above," and "above" may be used to describe the relationship of one element or feature relative to other elements or features as shown in the figures. Spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation other than those shown in the figures. The device may have other orientations (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptive terms used herein may be interpreted accordingly.

[0033] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
