Treadmills usually have a running board, which is a support structure used to support runners during their running activities. The running belt of the treadmill usually moves across the running board. Runners stand on the running board by the running belt, and when the running belt moves, runners need to keep themselves on the running board by running.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN223208905U, entitled "A Double-Layer Treadmill," discloses a double-layer treadmill, including an upper running board, a lower running board arranged below the upper running board, and several connecting members. At least a portion of the connecting members is arranged between the upper and lower running boards to create a gap between them. The running board in this technical solution actually consists of an upper running board, a lower running board, and a connecting plate for fixing the upper and lower running boards, which is not only costly to manufacture and complex to assemble, but also excessively bulky. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a lightweight treadmill running board that can reduce the manufacturing cost of the treadmill running board and effectively reduce the overall weight of the running board, so as to solve the technical problems of existing treadmill running boards that are not only expensive to manufacture, complex to assemble, and too bulky.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a running board for a treadmill, including a running board and side strips integrally formed on both sides of the running board, wherein a limiting groove is formed between the side strips and the side of the running board.

[0006] Preferably, the running board is a one-piece molded structure with an internal grid pattern.

[0007] Preferably, the upper surface of the edge strip is provided with a plurality of raised ribs extending laterally, and a groove is formed between adjacent raised ribs.

[0008] Preferably, pigment supply positions are provided on both sides of the running plate.

[0009] Preferably, the side strip and the side of the running board form an "L"-shaped limiting groove.

[0010] Preferably, the running board and side strips are made of engineering plastics or carbon fiber composite materials.

[0011] Another protected subject of this invention is a treadmill, which includes a running board for the treadmill and a base frame formed by a first support rod and a second support rod, a drive mechanism disposed within the base frame, and a driven shaft and a passive shaft rotatably disposed within the base frame.

[0012] Preferably, the driving mechanism is a drive motor, the drive motor is connected to the driven shaft, and a running belt is connected between the driven shaft and the passive shaft. The running belt rotates around the upper and lower surfaces of the running board.

[0013] Preferably, the inner side of the first support rod matches the limiting groove, and the running board is covered between the two first support rods by the side strip, and the limiting groove limits the lateral movement of the running board.

[0014] Preferably, the edge strip and the first support rod are fixedly connected, and the connection method is any one of threaded connection, snap-fit ​​connection or tenon and mortise connection.

[0015] Preferably, the base frame is provided with a plurality of connecting seats, which are arranged opposite to each other on the first support rod and the second support rod. The running plate is mounted on the connecting seats and fixedly installed by fasteners.

[0016] Through the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: By setting integrally formed side strips on both sides of the running board, and forming limiting grooves between the side strips and the two sides of the running board, since the main body of the running board is an integrally formed structure, the integrally formed running board can provide better force performance, strength and shock absorption capacity. Therefore, the side strips integrally formed on both sides of the running board also have strong force performance to increase the stability and connection strength between the side strips and the running board; the limiting grooves formed between the side strips and the running board are used to match the first support rod of the treadmill to realize the function of fixing the running board and limiting the lateral movement of the running board. Specifically, when assembling the running board, first... The running board is placed into the placement slot formed inside the treadmill's base frame. At this time, the running board sinks into the placement slot. The upper surface and inner side of the first support rods located on both sides of the base frame abut against the side strip and the side edge of the running board, respectively, thereby confining the running board in the placement slot. The running board is then mounted on the side strip, achieving quick installation of the running board and simplifying the overall structure. At the same time, the running board is made of engineering plastic or carbon fiber composite material, further reducing the overall weight of the running board. This provides a lightweight treadmill running board that can reduce the manufacturing cost of the treadmill running board and effectively reduce the overall weight of the running board, thus solving the technical problems of existing treadmill running boards that are not only expensive to manufacture, complex to assemble, and too bulky.

[0022] like Figure 1-6 As shown: A treadmill running board includes a running board 1 and side strips 101 integrally formed on both sides of the running board 1. The side strips 101 are used to abut against the upper surface of the first support rod of the treadmill, thereby fixing the running board 1 inside the treadmill and effectively preventing the running board 1 from sinking. A connecting block 105 is also provided between the side strips 101 and the running board 1 to enhance the connection stability of the side strips 101. The connecting block 105 is in the shape of an inverted trapezoid, with the right-angled side of the trapezoid integrally formed with the side strips 101 and the base of the trapezoid... The running board 1 is integrally formed with the side strip 101. The hypotenuse of the trapezoid is used to provide support for the side strip 101, and the upper side of the trapezoid is perpendicular to the side strip 101. A limiting groove 102 is formed between the side strip 101 and the side of the running board 1. The limiting groove 102 is used to match the first support rod of the treadmill and restrict the running board 1 between the two first support rods to prevent the running board 1 from shifting during use. Specifically, the limiting groove 102 is formed by the side strip 101 and the upper side of the trapezoid that is perpendicular to the side strip 101.

[0023] like Figure 5 As shown: the running board 1 is a one-piece molded structure with an internal grid mesh. The one-piece molded running board saves costs, has high assembly efficiency, is easy to maintain and has a low failure rate. In addition, the grid mesh structure can provide better stress performance, rigidity and shock absorption capacity, and increase the overall strength.

[0024] like Figure 6-7 As shown: The upper surface of the edge strip 101 is provided with a plurality of raised ribs 106 extending laterally, and a groove 103 is formed between adjacent raised ribs 106. By setting raised ribs 106 and grooves 103 to form a reinforcing rib structure, the compressive strength and connection strength of the edge strip 101 can be further improved.

[0025] like Figure 4As shown in Figure 7: Pigment supply positions 104 are provided on both sides of the running plate 1. The pigment supply positions 104 are symmetrically arranged and located on both sides of the running plate 1 near the edge strip 101.

[0026] like Figure 4-7 As shown: the side strip 101 and the running plate 1 form an "L"-shaped limiting groove 102. In this embodiment, the limiting groove 102 is an inverted "L" to fit with the vertical surface of the first support rod, ensuring that the side strip 101 and the running plate 1 can accurately fit with the upper surface and side of the first support rod.

[0027] The running board 1 and the side strips 101 are made of engineering plastics or carbon fiber composite materials. In this embodiment, the engineering plastics can be materials such as polycarbonate, nylon, and ABS to reduce the overall weight of the running board 1 and the side strips 101, thereby making the treadmill lighter.

[0028] like Figure 1-3 The treadmill 100 shown is a treadmill with the above-mentioned running board. The treadmill 100 includes a base frame 2 formed by two first support rods 201 on the left and right, a second support rod 202 near the drive mechanism, and a passive shaft 5. The drive mechanism 3 is set in the base frame 2, and the driven shaft 4 and the passive shaft 5 are rotatably set in the base frame 2. A placement groove for placing the running board 1 is formed between the two first support rods 201, and a top support seat is provided below the placement groove. A space for accommodating the drive mechanism 3 and the driven shaft 4 is formed between the second support rod 202 and the running board 1. The driven shaft 4 is rotatably set between the two first support rods 201 through connecting seats on both sides.

[0029] like Figure 1-3 As shown: the drive mechanism 3 is a drive motor, which is connected to the driven shaft 4 through the cooperation of pulleys and conveyor belt. A running belt 6 is connected between the driven shaft 4 and the passive shaft 5. When the drive motor starts, it drives the driven shaft 4 to move synchronously. Since the running belt 6 is located between the driven shaft 4 and the passive shaft 5, it is driven to move along the upper and lower surfaces of the running plate 1. That is, the running plate 1 is located between the driven shaft 4 and the passive shaft 5 and inside the running belt 6. The above structure is simple, lightweight and easy to use.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown: the inner side of the first support rod 201 matches the limiting slot 102, the running plate 1 is covered between the two first support rods 201 by the side strip 101, and the running plate 1 is laterally limited by the limiting slot 102.

[0031] In summary, by providing integrally formed side strips 101 on both sides of the running board 1, and simultaneously forming limiting grooves 102 between the side strips 101 and the two sides of the running board 1, the running board 1, being an integrally formed structure, provides better load-bearing performance, strength, and shock absorption. Therefore, the integrally formed side strips 101 on both sides of the running board 1 also possess strong load-bearing performance, increasing the stability and connection strength between the side strips 101 and the running board 1. The limiting grooves 102 formed between the side strips 101 and the running board 1 are used for connection with the treadmill 10. The first support rod 0 matches and realizes the function of fixing the running board 1 and limiting the lateral movement of the running board 1. Specifically, when assembling the running board 1, the running board 1 is first placed into the placement groove formed inside the base frame 2 of the treadmill 100. At this time, the running board 1 sinks into the placement groove. The upper surface and inner side of the first support rod 201 located on both sides of the base frame 2 abut against the side strip 101 and the side of the running board 1, respectively, thereby restricting the running board 1 in the placement groove. The running board 1 is then mounted on the side strip 101, realizing the quick installation of the running board 1 and simplifying the overall structure.

[0032] The edge strip 101 and the first support rod 201 are fixedly connected. The connection method is any one of threaded connection, snap connection or tenon connection. In this embodiment, after the running plate 1 is erected between the first support rods 201 on both sides through the edge strip 101, it is initially limited and fixed. Then, it is connected and fixed through a further fixed connection method. When using threaded connection, corresponding blind holes need to be opened on both the edge strip 101 and the first support rod 201, distributed longitudinally along the edge strip 101 and the first support rod 201. Then, the bolts are inserted into the blind holes on the edge strip 101 and the first support rod 201, and the nuts are locked to complete the further fixed connection.

[0033] The snap-fit ​​connection method involves setting several clips below the edge strip 101, and setting several slots on the upper surface of the first support rod 201 that match the clips. Inserting the clips into the slots will further fix the two together.

[0034] like Figure 8 The image shows one method of fixing the running board. Specifically: The base frame 2 is provided with several connecting seats 203. In this embodiment, three sets of connecting seats 203 are respectively arranged opposite to each other on the first support rod 201 and the second support rod 202. The connecting seats 203 are fixed to the base frame 2 by welding or fasteners to increase the connection strength. The running board 1 is mounted on the connecting seats 203 and fixed in place by fasteners. The specific installation process is as follows: First, place the running board 1 on each connecting seat 203, so that the threaded mounting holes on the bottom of the running board 1 correspond to the blind holes on the connecting seats 203. Then, pass the fasteners (fastening bolts) through the blind holes and lock them in the threaded mounting holes to complete the fixed installation of the running board 1. This method hides the fasteners under the treadmill, and the outer surface of the running board has no holes and the fasteners are exposed, which improves the aesthetics.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
