[0046] Example

[0047] This application provides a walking bath tub, such as... Figures 1 to 6 As shown, it includes: a tank 1, a base 2, and a running mechanism 3;

[0048] The tank 1 is set on the base 2 to form a receiving space 13 for holding water. The running mechanism 3 is set in the base 2 and located at the bottom of the tank 2. The running mechanism 3 has a running surface 36.

[0049] The running surface 36 is located at the bottom of the tank 1. The tank 1 has an opening 17 at the position corresponding to the running mechanism 3. The opening 17 is connected to the receiving space 13 so that at least part of the running surface 36 is exposed on the bottom surface of the tank 1.

[0050] The design of the opening 17 exposes the running mechanism 3 to the tank 1, and creates an area for exercise and a rest area at the bottom of the tank 1, enriching the function of the walking bath. In addition, the setting of the opening 17 also helps to reduce the noise generated by the running mechanism 3.

[0051] Furthermore, the base 2 includes a first base 21 and a second base 22, which are stacked together;

[0052] The trough 1 is set on the first base 21, the first base 21 is provided with a running mechanism 3, and the second base 22 is provided with a number of support members 30.

[0053] The base 2 provides better support for the tank body 1, making the tank body 1 more stable, especially in a water environment where it is less likely to slide or shake, thereby improving the safety performance of the walking bath. At the same time, the base 2 also makes the bottom of the tank body 1 flatter, providing users with a more comfortable touch and optimizing the user experience.

[0054] Understandably, the base 2 includes a first base 21 and a second base 22. The running mechanism 3 is set in the first base 21, which can provide a stable environment for the operation of the running mechanism 3, meet the usage requirements of the running mechanism 3, enhance the safety of the walking bath, and is set apart from the second base 2. The second base 22 is provided with several support members 30, which helps to further enhance the stability of the treadmill 3, and makes there a certain gap between the base 2 of the walking bath and the ground, so that water film is not easily formed between the walking bath and the ground, which facilitates the movement of the walking bath.

[0055] Furthermore, the design of the first base 21 and the second base 22 optimizes the structural layout of the walking bath, facilitating the connection between the water inlet 18, the water outlet 19 and the pipes, thereby optimizing the pipe layout.

[0056] Furthermore, the support foot 6 is an adjustable support foot, which makes it easy to adjust the height of the walking bath tub to meet the user's personalized usage needs.

[0057] The running mechanism 3 includes a running belt 33, a first roller 31 and a second roller 32; the first roller 31 and the second roller 32 are movably connected to the first base 21, and a support member 30 is provided between the first roller 31 and the second roller 32. The support member 30 is placed in the running belt 33, and the running belt 33 is movably connected to the first roller 31 and the second roller 32.

[0058] With the above-mentioned structure of the running mechanism 3, there is no need to use a motor for driving, which eliminates the risk of motor leakage and helps to improve the safety performance of the walking bath.

[0059] Optionally, the support member 30 can be a support plate 34 or several third rollers 35; the presence of the support plate 34 or the third rollers 35 can help distribute the force on the running belt 33 and avoid force concentration. The support plate 34 can provide more stable support and enhance the stability of the running belt 33 during exercise. The setting of the third rollers 35 helps to improve the smoothness and fluidity of the running belt 33, optimize the user's stepping feeling, and enable the treadmill to match the human's gait.

[0060] Specifically, in some other embodiments of this application, the support plate 34 includes multiple component plates, which, while maintaining the support function of the support plate 34, also help to improve the smoothness of the movement of the treadmill belt 33.

[0061] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the tank 1 includes a frame 11 and a wall panel 12;

[0062] Each wall panel 12 is respectively disposed on different surfaces of the frame 11 to form an accommodating space 13 located inside the frame 11;

[0063] Each wall panel 12 is detachably connected to the frame 11, which facilitates effective cleaning of the walking bath tub, helps replace damaged components, and also facilitates the disassembly and transportation of the walking bath tub.

[0064] The frame 11 has at least one side with a door frame 14, and the door frame 14 is movably connected to a door body 15 with a matching shape. The wall panels 12 adjacent to the door frame 14 are respectively provided with handrails 16.

[0065] The door frame 14 and door 15 improve the way to enter and exit the traditional walking bath and enhance the convenience of use for users. The handrail 16 is set on the wall panel 12 adjacent to the door frame 14, so that users can grab the handrail 16 when running on the running mechanism 3 or when falling. The handrail 16 provides additional support and thus improves the safety of the walking bath.

[0066] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the first base 21 is also provided with a water inlet 18 and a water outlet 19. The water inlet 18 and the water outlet 19 are respectively connected to the accommodating space 13. The water inlet 18 is used to connect to the water replenishment mechanism and the water outlet 19 is used to connect to the drainage mechanism to realize the replacement of the water in the tank 1.

[0067] The bath tub is equipped with an inlet 18 and an outlet 19, which facilitates the replacement of water in the bath tub and optimizes the water replacement process. The inlet 18 is only used for water injection and the outlet 19 is only used for water discharge, which helps to maintain the cleanliness of the inlet 18 and thus maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the water in the holding space 13.

[0068] The outlet 19 can be connected to the drainage mechanism, and the inlet 18 can be connected to the water supply mechanism, enabling the walking bath to be used with various water treatment systems, such as filters and dosing devices, to provide a more comprehensive water treatment solution.

[0069] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the base 2 has anti-slip protrusions 23 on the side near the door 15.

[0070] Walking bathtubs are often used in aquatic environments, which are slippery and prone to causing users to slip. The anti-slip protrusions 23 are placed on the side of the base 2 near the door 15, which increases the friction of the base 2 surface, helps to reduce the risk of accidental slipping, and enhances the safety of users.

[0071] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, a handle 151 is provided on the door body 15;

[0072] The handle 151 includes a first rotating part 1511, a second rotating part 1512, and a rotating shaft 1513. The first rotating part 1511 and the second rotating part 1512 are located on the inner and outer sides of the door body 15, respectively. The first rotating part 1511 and the second rotating part 1512 are movably connected to the door body 15 through the rotating shaft 1513 to realize the synchronous rotation of the first rotating part 1511 and the second rotating part 1512.

[0073] Equipped with a first rotating part 1511, a second rotating part 1512, and a rotating shaft 1513, the mechanism of synchronous rotation makes the opening and closing of the door smoother. The door 15 can be opened from both the inside and the outside, fully taking into account the actual use needs of hemiplegic users and realizing the user-friendly design concept.

[0074] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, the first rotating part 1511 and / or the second rotating part 1512 are also provided with an abutment part 1514 on the side near the door body 15.

[0075] The abutment portion 1514 provides additional support when the door handle 151 rotates, helping to maintain the stability of the handle 151, reducing unnecessary shaking or movement of the handle 151 during operation, thereby making the operation of the handle 151 smoother and providing a more comfortable grip and operating experience.

[0076] The abutting part 1514 also helps the door body 15 to fit fully with the door frame 14, which can help improve the sealing effect of the door body 15 and make it less likely for water to leak out from the door gap.

[0077] Furthermore, a touch screen 41 is also provided. Inside the tank 1, there are one or more sensors (not shown in the figure) used to sense the water level. The touch screen 41 is connected to the sensors to display water level information.

[0078] The touchscreen 41 provides real-time water level information, allowing users to view water level changes at any time and take timely measures. Multiple sensors distributed within the tank 1 provide more accurate water level measurement data, reducing measurement errors caused by different sensor positions. Timely access to water level information can prevent potential safety issues caused by excessively high or low water levels. The intuitive touchscreen 41 interface makes water level monitoring simpler.

[0079] Specifically, in some embodiments of this application, the walking bath is also equipped with a waterproof motor (not shown in the figure). The output shaft of the waterproof motor is coaxially connected to the first roller 31 and / or the second roller 32 of the running mechanism 3. The waterproof motor is electrically connected to the touch screen 41 to adjust the speed of the running mechanism 3 to meet the actual needs of the user. The waterproof motor is also electrically connected to an emergency stop button 52. The emergency stop button 52 can stop the function of the walking bath. In an emergency, stopping the operation of the waterproof motor can effectively avoid accidents or unexpected events and improve the safety performance of the walking bath.

[0080] The waterproof motor enriches the functional modes of the running mechanism 3. It can be driven by the waterproof motor or manually, meeting the diverse exercise needs of users and improving the user experience to a certain extent.

[0081] Of course, you can also opt for a non-powered running mechanism instead of a waterproof motor.

[0082] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, several buttons 5 and a main control unit 4 are also provided. The buttons 5 include function buttons 51 and / or emergency stop buttons 52, which are electrically connected to the main control unit 4.

[0083] Function button 51 provides a quick way to operate. Users can quickly start, stop or adjust the functions of the walking bath by pressing button 5. Specifically, it can include functions such as filling water, draining water, and adjusting the speed of the waterproof motor, which improves the efficiency and convenience of operation. Emergency stop button 52 can immediately stop the operation of the walking bath in an emergency to prevent equipment damage or personal injury, which is a key measure to improve system safety.

[0084] Furthermore, at least part of the wall panel 12 is provided with a transparent structure (not shown in the figure) to facilitate observation of the interior of the tank 1. The transparent structure enhances the visibility of the tank 1, allowing direct observation of the internal state and water level changes of the tank 1.

[0085] Specifically, in some embodiments of this application, the transparent structure can be implemented using transparent or visual materials.

[0086] Furthermore, the bottom of the base 2 is provided with several support feet 6, and all support feet 6 are arranged in rows and columns to form a support foot array 60.

[0087] The support leg array 60 can evenly distribute the load, reduce local stress, lower the risk of structural deformation, and improve the overall stability of the walk-through bathtub; multiple support legs 6 can also provide higher stability and anti-overturning ability, so that the base 2 can remain balanced under various conditions and prevent accidental tipping or movement; the setting of the support legs 6 creates a gap between the base 2 and the ground, which helps to promote water drainage and prevent water accumulation from damaging the base 2.

[0088] The embodiments of this application have at least the following beneficial effects:

[0089] This application provides a walking bath tub that not only meets the requirements of a stable operating environment for the running mechanism 3, but also facilitates the lifting or moving of the walking bath tub.

[0090] Specifically, it is equipped with a waterproof motor, a touch screen 41, function buttons 51, and an emergency stop button 52, which enhances the human-computer interaction function of the walking bath, enriches the functional modes of the walking bath, and meets the diverse usage needs of users.

[0091] Specifically, the base 2 includes a first base 21 and a second base 22. The running mechanism 3 is located in the first base 21, which provides a better operating environment for the running mechanism 3. The first base 21 restricts the running mechanism 3, making it less prone to shaking. The second base 22 is provided with several support feet 6, which creates a certain gap between the base 2 and the ground, making it less likely for water film to form and facilitating the movement of the walking bath.

[0092] Those skilled in the art will understand that the modules in the apparatus of the implementation scenario can be distributed within the apparatus of the implementation scenario as described, or they can be located in one or more apparatuses different from this implementation scenario, with corresponding changes. The modules of the above-described implementation scenario can be combined into one module, or they can be further divided into multiple sub-modules.

[0093] The serial numbers in this application are for descriptive purposes only and do not represent the superiority or inferiority of the implementation scenario.

[0094] The above disclosures are only a few specific implementation scenarios of this application. However, this application is not limited to these. Any variations that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of this application.
