CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 202321391449.6, filed on Jun. 2, 2023, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of treadmills, in particular to a lifting structure for a treadmill.

BACKGROUND

The existing treadmill includes a main frame as a base, a treadmill platform mounted on the main frame, armrests and a control platform. The treadmill platform is fixed to the base in parallel to form an exercise plane for walking or running, and when the exercise plane is used, the climbing exercise function can also be realized through a lifting mechanism.

For example, as disclosed in patent document CN112337046A, an inclination angle of the treadmill platform is adjusted by means of bolt fixing to achieve the climbing exercise function. However, in a specific use of the method, the overall weight of the treadmill platform and the user is mainly borne by the bolt. For a long time, the bolt is easily damaged, and the service life of this structure is not long. Therefore, the improvements have been made.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present disclosure will be further described in detail with the attached drawings and specific implementations.

Referring to FIGS. 1-8, a lifting structure for a treadmill includes a first unit 1 and a second unit 2 rotatably fitted thereto, the first unit 1 being fixedly mounted at a bottom of a treadmill frame 3. As one implementation, the first unit 1 is welded to the bottom of the treadmill frame 3.

In the example, the first unit 1 includes a first side edge 11 having an L-shape, a second side edge 12 having an L-shape, and a third side edge 13 integrally connecting the first side edge 11 and the second side edge 12. As an alternative, the first side edge 11, the second side edge 12 and the third side edge 13 are integrally formed.

In the example, an upper wall of the first unit 1 is a flat wall, which is parallel to the bottom of the treadmill frame 3 and closely fits to the bottom of the treadmill frame 3, so that the whole surface can be used to bear the weight of the treadmill frame 3.

In the example, as shown in FIG. 5, the second unit 2 includes a first portion 21 having a smaller diameter and a second portion 22 having a larger diameter; and as shown in FIG. 6, in the first unit 1, a gap 14 exists between the first side edge 11 and the second side edge 12 for accommodating the first portion 21.

In the example, a first hole 23 is disposed on the first portion 21 of the second unit 2, and second holes 15 corresponding to the first hole 23 are disposed at a lower end of the first unit 1. Specifically, corresponding second holes 15 are disposed on lower ends of the first side edge 11 and the second side edge 12 to form a through hole with the gap 14 between the first side edge 11 and the second side edge 12.

A pin roll 4 is further included. The pin roll 4 penetrates through one of the second holes 15, then penetrates through the first hole 23 of the first portion 21, and then penetrates through the other second hole 15, so that the first unit 1 and the second unit 2 form a rotating fit.

As an alternative, the pin roll 4, being a bolt, penetrates through and is threadedly connected to a nut.

In order to make the rotation of the second unit 2 more smooth, in the example, a roll sleeve 24 is assembled in the first hole 23, and the pin roll 4 penetrates through and is arranged in the roll sleeve 24.

In the example, the second unit 2 has two states: an unfolded state and a folded state, shown in FIG. 2 as the folded state, in which a third wall 25 of the second unit 2 abuts against first walls 16 of the first unit 1, and shown in FIG. 4 as the unfolded state, in which fourth walls 26 of the second unit 2 abut against second walls 17 of the first unit 1.

Specifically, the first wall 16, the second wall 17, the third wall 25, and the fourth wall 26 are flat walls, so that the transmission of force can be effectively guided and the bearing effect is better after the corresponding walls are fitted and abutted.

In order to make the rotating fit between the second unit 2 and the first unit 1 more smooth, in the example, the lower end of the first unit 2 has rounded corners; and the second wall 17, the fourth wall 26 and a bottom surface 27 of the second unit 2 are inclined surfaces.

Referring to FIGS. 7 and 8, another form of the first unit 1 is shown, which differs from the form described above in that: the first unit 1 includes an extension wall 18 extending to the lower end of the first unit 1, the extension wall 18 being capable of limiting the second unit 2 when the second unit 2 is in an unfolded state. At this time, the extension wall 18 abuts against an outer wall of the second unit 2.

As an alternative, an extension wall 18 and the first unit 1 are integrally formed, a width of the extension wall 18 being less than an overall width of the first unit 1.

The above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present disclosure, but not to limit this. Although the present disclosure has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing examples, the technical solutions described in the foregoing examples can still be modified, or some technical features can be replaced by equivalents; while these modifications or substitutions do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of various examples of the present disclosure.
