[0028] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that these descriptions are merely descriptive and exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] It should be noted that similar labels in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it may not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0030] Figures 1-9 As shown, the shell mounting structure of the fitness equipment is mounted on the main support 1 of the fitness equipment. It includes a shell, which includes an integrally formed upper frame 3, an integrally formed lower frame 4, and two side plates 2. The upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4 are detachably fixed to the main support 1. The upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4 are combined to form the outer frame of the shell. The outer frame has a cavity and side openings on both sides. The upper frame 3 has upper positioning grooves 9 on both sides for the edges of the two side plates 2 to be inserted into respectively. The lower frame 4 has lower positioning grooves 15 on both sides for the edges of the two side plates 2 to be inserted into respectively. The side plates 2 are inserted into the upper positioning grooves 9 and the lower positioning grooves 15 and fixed to the outer frame. The side plates 2 cover the side openings.

[0031] This patent divides the shell into an integrally formed upper frame 3, an integrally formed lower frame 4, and two side plates 2. This means that only the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4 need to be molded, while the side plates 2 do not need to be molded and can be directly cut out, thereby reducing the mold investment cost. In addition, the separate molding of the upper frame 3, the lower frame 4, and the side plates 2 allows these three parts to be set with different colors. The colors of these three parts can be matched according to the needs to meet the current market demand for personalized small batches.

[0032] Preferably, the upper border 3 is a U-shaped border and the lower border 4 is a straight bottom border. However, it is not limited to the above structure and can also be other shapes, such as the upper border 3 being set as a U-shaped border and the lower border 4 being set as a U-shaped border; or the upper border 3 being set as a straight border and the lower border 4 being set as a U-shaped border.

[0033] The lower frame 4 is fixedly connected to the main support 1 by screws. The upper frame 3 rests on the side plate 2 inserted into the lower positioning groove 15 through the upper positioning groove 9. There are connecting cover plates 5 between the two sides of the upper frame 3 and the two sides of the lower frame 4. The connecting cover plates 5 are fixedly connected to the main support 1 by screws. The connecting cover plates 5 press on the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4 to join the two sides of the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4 to form an outer frame fixed to the main support 1.

[0034] Figures 5-8 As shown, during installation, the lower frame 4 is first fixedly connected to the main support 1 with screws. Then, the two side plates 2 are inserted into the lower positioning grooves 15 on both sides of the lower frame 4. The upper frame 3 is then placed on the two side plates 2, so that the two side plates 2 are inserted into the upper positioning grooves 9 on both sides of the upper frame 3. Then, the two connecting cover plates 5 are pressed between the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4 respectively. The connecting cover plates 5 are fixedly installed on the main support 1 with screws. At this time, the connecting cover plates 5 press on the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4 at the same time, joining the two sides of the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4, so that the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4 are relatively fixed. Since the edges of the side plates 2 are inserted into the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4, the side plates 2 are also fixed to the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4 at this time, thereby realizing the fixed installation of the shell on the main support 1.

[0035] When the upper frame 3 is a U-shaped frame and the lower frame 4 is a straight bottom frame, the connecting cover 5 is located at the bottom of the housing. The screws used to fix the lower frame 4 are located at the bottom of the housing, and the screws used to fix the connecting cover 5 are also located on both sides of the bottom of the housing to reduce the number of exposed screws, making the overall housing look more concise.

[0036] Figure 1 As shown, limiting baffles 6 are provided on the left and right sides of the connecting cover plate 5. The limiting baffles 6 limit the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4 on the left and right sides to restrict the relative movement of the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4.

[0037] Figure 2 As shown, the upper frame 3 has a first perimeter on both sides, which extends along the outline of the upper frame 3. The upper part of the first perimeter has a first inner extension 7 and a first outer extension 8. An upper positioning groove 9 is formed between the first inner extension 7 and the first outer extension 8. The first inner extension 7 is higher than the first outer extension 8. The first inner extension 7 is limited to the inner side of the side plate 2, and the first outer extension 8 is limited to the outer side of the side plate 2, thus positioning the inserted side plate 2. The first inner extension 7 is higher than the first outer extension 8, which allows the inner side of the side plate 2 to be better supported, thereby improving the strength of the shell, because when the side plate 2 is installed on the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4, it will generally only be subjected to an inward thrust.

[0038] The upper part of the first perimeter is provided with a first flange, and the first inner extension edge 7 and the first outer extension edge 8 are provided on the first flange. The first outer extension edge 8 includes a first straight edge and a first inclined edge. The lower end of the first inclined edge is connected to the first flange, and the first straight edge is connected to the upper end of the first inclined edge. The first straight edge is parallel to the first inner extension edge 7. The inner side wall of the first straight edge is provided with a first step for the inserted side plate 2 to abut against. When the side plate 2 is inserted into the upper positioning groove 9, the edge abuts against the first step, and is limited by the first straight edge and the first inner extension edge 7. The first inclined edge connects the first straight edge and the first flange, so that when the side plate 2 is inserted into the upper positioning groove 9, the bottom of the upper positioning groove 9 can have higher strength for support and stronger resistance to deformation.

[0039] Figure 3 As shown, a second perimeter 10 is provided on both sides of the lower frame 4. The second perimeter 10 extends along the outline shape of the lower frame 4. A second inner extension 12 and a second outer extension 17 are provided on the upper part of the second perimeter 10. A lower positioning groove 15 is formed between the second inner extension 12 and the second outer extension 17. The second inner extension 12 is higher than the second outer extension 17. The second inner extension 12 is limited to the inner side of the side plate 2, and the second outer extension 17 is limited to the outer side of the side plate 2, thus positioning the inserted side plate 2. The inner side of the second inner extension 12 is higher than the second outer extension 17, so that the inner side of the side plate 2 can be better supported, thereby improving the strength of the shell, because when the side plate 2 is installed on the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4, it will generally only be subjected to an inward thrust.

[0040] The upper part of the second perimeter 10 is provided with a second flange 11, and a second inner extension edge 12 and a second outer extension edge 17 are provided on the second flange 11. The second outer extension edge 17 includes a second straight edge 14 and a second inclined edge 13. The lower end of the second inclined edge 13 is connected to the second flange 11, and the second straight edge 14 is connected to the upper end of the second inclined edge 13. The second straight edge 14 is parallel to the second inner extension edge 12. A second step 16 is provided on the inner side wall of the second straight edge 14 for the inserted side plate 2 to abut against. When the side plate 2 is inserted into the lower positioning groove 15, its edge abuts against the second step 16, and is limited by the second straight edge 14 and the second inner extension edge 12. The second inclined edge 13 connects the second straight edge 14 and the second flange 11, so that when the side plate 2 is inserted into the lower positioning groove 15, the bottom of the lower positioning groove 15 can have higher strength for support and stronger resistance to deformation.

[0041] The first border, first flange, first inner extension 7 and first outer extension 8 on the upper border 3 have the same structure as the second border 10, second flange 11, second inner extension 12 and second outer extension 17 on the lower border 4.

[0042] Preferably, the upper frame 3 and the lower frame 4 are made of metal, such as aluminum alloy. However, they are not limited to metal; other materials, such as plastic, are also suitable for this patent.

[0043] Preferably, the side panel 2 can be made of acrylic board, decorative wood board or aluminum board, and various styles and materials can be changed according to needs.

[0044] The above describes the housing mounting structure of the fitness equipment provided by this utility model. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand this utility model and its core ideas. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications to this utility model without departing from its principle, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
