Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fitness equipment technology, specifically a screen-flipping device for fitness equipment. Background Technology

[0002] The promotion of national fitness activities has spurred the rapid development of the fitness equipment industry. Indoor fitness equipment, especially treadmills, has made exercise no longer limited by location or weather, and is very popular. Currently, the electronic screens on fitness equipment not only allow users to adjust exercise parameters but also support functions such as screen mirroring from mobile phones to play videos, making it convenient for users to relax by watching TV shows or playing games anytime, anywhere.

[0003] However, the electronic screens of fitness equipment on the market are all at a fixed angle and cannot be adjusted according to the needs of the exerciser. For example, when the exerciser is doing yoga or stretching activities in front of the treadmill, they cannot see the screen clearly, which causes some inconvenience to the exerciser and results in a poor experience.

[0004] In response to the above phenomenon, it would be of great significance to provide a mechanism that allows the electronic screen to be flipped to the front of fitness equipment and to any angle therein, so that exercisers can still clearly see the screen when performing activities such as stretching or yoga in front of the fitness equipment, thereby further expanding the range of exercise types and maximizing the utilization of the screen. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned shortcomings by providing a screen-flipping device for fitness equipment. This device allows the electronic screen to be flipped to the front of the fitness equipment or to any angle therein, so that users can still clearly see the screen while performing activities such as stretching or yoga in front of the equipment. This further expands the range of exercise types and maximizes the utilization of the screen.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, a screen-flipping device for fitness equipment is designed, comprising a rotating bushing 1, a support rod 4, and a screen connecting plate 9. The screen connecting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the back of the electronic screen 3. A bent sheet metal 9-A and a baffle 9-B are fixed on the screen connecting plate 9. The rotating bushing 1 is fixedly connected to the support rod 4. The rotating bushing 1 is rotatably connected to the bent sheet metal 9-A via a rotating screw 5. The screen connecting plate 9 drives the electronic screen 3 to rotate relative to the rotating bushing 1. A limiting block 1-A is connected to the rotating bushing 1. The limiting block 1-A is used to mechanically limit the movement direction of the electronic screen 3 on the fitness equipment. A limiting block 4-A is connected to the support rod 4. The limiting block 4-A is used to mechanically limit the movement direction of the electronic screen 3 on the front side of the fitness equipment. The limiting blocks 1-A and 4-A respectively collide with the baffle 9-B to achieve mechanical limiting.

[0007] Furthermore, the bottom of the support rod 4 is fixedly installed on the base 2 of the fitness equipment, and the top of the support rod 4 is provided with a bushing mounting groove. The rotating bushing 1 is fixedly connected in the bushing mounting groove, so that the connection between the rotating bushing 1 and the support rod 4 is more stable, thereby making the electronic screen 3 rotate more smoothly.

[0008] Furthermore, the first limiting block 1-A is fixedly connected to the rear side of the rotating bushing 1, and the second limiting block 4-A is fixedly connected to the front side of the support rod 4. The first limiting block 1-A collides with the baffle 9-B to achieve limiting when the electronic screen 3 rotates to the rearmost side, and the second limiting block 4-A collides with the baffle 9-B to achieve limiting when the electronic screen 3 rotates to the frontmost side.

[0009] Furthermore, the bent sheet metal 9-A is arranged symmetrically on the left and right, and the baffle 9-B is disposed between the bent sheet metal 9-A.

[0010] Furthermore, a wear-resistant washer 10 is installed between the rotating bushing 1 and the bent sheet metal 9-A, the rotating screw 5 passes through the rotating bushing 1, and rigid flat washers 7 and disc-shaped washers 6 are symmetrically installed on the outer side of the bent sheet metal 9-A in sequence, and an anti-loosening nut 8 is installed at the tail of the rotating screw 5.

[0011] Furthermore, two sets of rigid flat pads 7 and disc-shaped pads 6 are respectively provided on the outer side of the bent sheet metal 9-A. The rigid flat pads 7, disc-shaped pads 6, rigid flat pads 7 and disc-shaped pads 6 are symmetrically installed on the outer side of the bent sheet metal 9-A in sequence, thereby increasing the friction damping.

[0012] Furthermore, after the anti-loosening nut 8 is tightened, it presses against the disc-shaped washer 6. After the disc-shaped washer 6 undergoes elastic deformation, it presses against the rigid flat washer 7. After the rigid washer 7 is subjected to force, it causes the bent sheet metal 9-A to deform, thereby pressing against the wear-resistant washer 10 to achieve friction damping. The damping magnitude can be adjusted by the anti-loosening nut 8.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, this invention features a novel, simple, and rationally designed structure. By adding a flip-up electronic screen mechanism to the fitness equipment, the screen can be flipped from its normal operating angle to the front of the equipment or any other angle. This allows users to clearly see the screen even after completing their workout and performing stretching or yoga activities in front of the equipment, further expanding the range of exercise types and maximizing the use of the screen while improving the user experience. Furthermore, the anti-loosening nut in this invention compresses the disc-shaped washer when tightened, causing the washer to elastically deform and compress the rigid flat washer. Using two sets of disc-shaped washer and rigid flat washer on one side increases frictional damping. Additionally, the wear-resistant washer prevents end-face wear between the screen connecting plate and the rotating bushing during rotational movement. Both wear-resistant washer and the two bent sheet metal end faces of the screen connecting plate generate equivalent frictional force, thus doubling the final damping force.

[0015] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 5As shown, this utility model provides a screen flipping device for fitness equipment, including a rotating bushing 1, a support rod 4, and a screen connecting plate 9. The screen connecting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the back of the electronic screen 3. A bent sheet metal 9-A and a baffle 9-B are fixed on the screen connecting plate 9. The bent sheet metal 9-A is arranged symmetrically on the left and right, and the baffle 9-B is located between the bent sheet metal 9-A. The rotating bushing 1 is fixedly connected to the support rod 4. The rotating bushing 1 is rotatably connected to the bent sheet metal 9-A through a rotating screw 5. The screen connecting plate 9 drives the electronic screen 3 to rotate relative to the rotating bushing 1. A limit block 1-A is connected to the rotating bushing 1. The limit block 1-A is used to mechanically limit the movement direction of the electronic screen 3 on the fitness equipment. A limit block 4-A is connected to the support rod 4. The limit block 4-A is used to mechanically limit the movement direction of the electronic screen 3 on the front side of the fitness equipment. The limit blocks 1-A and 4-A respectively collide with the baffle 9-B to achieve mechanical limitation.

[0016] The first limiting block 1-A is fixedly connected to the rear side of the rotating bushing 1, and the second limiting block 4-A is fixedly connected to the front side of the support rod 4. The first limiting block 1-A collides with the baffle 9-B to limit the rotation when the electronic screen 3 rotates to the rearmost side, and the second limiting block 4-A collides with the baffle 9-B to limit the rotation when the electronic screen 3 rotates to the frontmost side. The bottom of the support rod 4 is fixedly installed on the base 2 of the fitness equipment, and the top of the support rod 4 is provided with a bushing mounting groove. The rotating bushing 1 is fixedly connected in the bushing mounting groove, so that the connection between the rotating bushing 1 and the support rod 4 is more stable, and thus the electronic screen 3 rotates more smoothly.

[0017] A wear-resistant washer 10 is installed between the rotating bushing 1 and the bent sheet metal 9-A. The rotating screw 5 passes through the rotating bushing 1. Rigid flat washers 7 and disc-shaped washers 6 are symmetrically installed on the outer side of the bent sheet metal 9-A in sequence. An anti-loosening nut 8 is installed at the tail of the rotating screw 5. Two sets of rigid flat washers 7 and disc-shaped washers 6 are respectively set on the outer side of the bent sheet metal 9-A. Rigid flat washers 7, disc-shaped washers 6, rigid flat washers 7 and disc-shaped washers 6 are symmetrically installed on the outer side of the bent sheet metal 9-A in sequence. After the anti-loosening nut 8 is tightened, it presses the disc-shaped washers 6. After the disc-shaped washers 6 undergo elastic deformation, they press the rigid flat washers 7. After the rigid washers 7 are subjected to force, the bent sheet metal 9-A deforms and then presses the wear-resistant washer 10 to achieve friction damping. The damping magnitude is adjusted by the anti-loosening nut 8.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments: A screen-flipping device applicable to fitness equipment mainly consists of a rotating bushing 1, a base 2, an electronic screen 3, a support rod 4, a rotating screw 5, a disc-shaped washer 6, a rigid flat washer 7, an anti-loosening nut 8, a screen connecting plate 9, a wear-resistant washer 10, a limiting block 1-A, and a limiting block 4-A. The rotating bushing 1 is connected to the support rod 4, and the limiting block 1-A is connected to the rotating bushing 1 for mechanically limiting the movement direction of the electronic screen 3 on the fitness equipment. The limiting block 4-A is connected to the support rod 4 for mechanically limiting the movement direction of the electronic screen 3 in the front side of the fitness equipment. The rotating bushing 1 is installed and connected to the bent sheet metal 9-A of the screen connecting plate 9. A wear-resistant washer 10 is installed between the two. The rotating screw 5 passes through the rotating bushing 1. Rigid flat washers 7, disc washers 6, rigid flat washers 7, and disc washers 6 are symmetrically installed on the outer side of the bent sheet metal 9-A of the screen connecting plate 9 in sequence. An anti-loosening nut 8 is installed at the tail of the rotating screw 5. When the anti-loosening nut 8 is tightened, it presses the disc washer 6. The disc washer 6 undergoes elastic deformation and presses the rigid flat washer 7. Using two sets of disc washers 6 and rigid flat washers 7 on one side can increase the friction damping. The rigid washer 7 under force deforms the bent sheet metal 9-A of the screen connecting plate 9 and presses the wear-resistant washer 10 to achieve friction damping. The damping magnitude can be adjusted by the anti-loosening nut 8.

[0019] When the screen connecting plate 9 drives the electronic screen 3 to rotate relative to the rotating bushing 1, the wear-resistant pads 10 are pressed against the two end faces of the rotating bushing 1, generating friction with the bent sheet metal 9-A of the screen connecting plate 9. This friction is the damping force. The wear-resistant pads 10 are mainly used to prevent end face wear when there is rotational movement between the screen connecting plate 9 and the rotating bushing 1. Both wear-resistant pads 10 generate equivalent friction with the two end faces of the bent sheet metal 9-A of the screen connecting plate 9, which can double the final damping force. The screen connecting plate 9 is connected and fixed to the baffle 9-B, which is used to achieve mechanical limiting by colliding with the limit block one and the limit block two.

[0020] This utility model's screen-flipping device allows the electronic screen 3 to rotate around an axis and stop at the position shown in the attached figure through manual operation. Figure 5 At any of the two extreme positions A and B shown, the damping of the rotating mechanism can be adjusted by the anti-loosening nut 8.

[0021] The rotating bushing 1 of the screen flip-up device is connected and fixed to the support rod 4. The rotating bushing 1 is connected to the limiting block 1-A and the support rod 4 is connected to the limiting block 4-A, which are used for mechanical limiting of the electronic screen 3 on the fitness equipment and in the front direction of movement, respectively. The screen connecting plate 9 and the rotating bushing 1 rotate relative to each other, and friction is achieved by the wear-resistant pad 10. The rotating screw 5 passes through the rotating bushing 1, and two sets of rigid flat pads 7 and disc-shaped pads 6 are installed symmetrically in sequence. The anti-loosening nut 8 is installed at the tail and screwed in to press the disc-shaped pads 6 and rigid flat pads 7 in sequence, so that the bent sheet metal 9-A of the screen connecting plate 9 is deformed, and the wear-resistant pad 10 is pressed to generate damping.
