A muscle-building apparatus for building the muscles of a user performing a physical exercise, comprising a frame on which are assembled a treadmill which is displaceable in a longitudinal direction and in opposite senses, a force generator that supplies an adjustable pushing or dragging force, and a swivelling support mechanically coupled to the force generator for the user to perform a pushing or dragging exercise on the swivelling support.

A mechanical braking system which can provide a brake to a self-powered treadmill, or a dual mode treadmill that can operate in both self-powered and motor-powered modes, that will rapidly halt the motion of the belt or rollers in the event of a power disconnect such as from the removal of a safety key.

A mechanical braking system for a high-incline treadmill utilizing a mechanical brake which may be used on its own or in combination with a traditional motor brake. The mechanical brake is generally mountable on a treadmill between or around the belt motor and the flywheel. Upon engagement of the brake, typically the brake engages the flywheel, the motor, or the axle in a way that effectively locks the axle, and thus the belt, in a fixed position.

A fitness equipment, including an exercise area, a control system, and a handle part located on one side of the exercise area. The handle part includes a fixed bracket and a rolling adjustment component connected to the control system. The fixed support is in a “U”-shaped structure, and at least one end of the opening of the fixed support is provided with an installation seat for accommodating the rolling adjustment component. The rolling adjustment component includes a rolling member and a limiting seat located in the installation seat. The two ends of the rolling member are hinged with the limiting seat. The fitness equipment is adjusted by the rolling of the rolling member.

A platform for enabling omnidirectional movement of an exercising machine is disclosed. The platform may comprise a hemispherical inner body comprising a hollow cavity. The hollow cavity may be used for accommodating an exercising machine into the hollow cavity. The exercising machine may be one of a treadmill, treadclimber, and bicycle. The platform may further comprise an outer body. The outer body may be rotatably engaged with the hemispherical inner body. The rotatable engagement may allow an omnidirectional movement of the hemispherical inner body in a horizontal plane and an inclination and declination of the exercising machine. The platform further comprises a communication unit. The communication unit may be connected with the hemispherical inner body for receiving user's inputs for movement. At least one of the hemispherical inner body and the exercising machine may move based on the user's inputs for movement. The platform may also find use in virtual shopping environments to help a user in buying products.

The present disclosure proposes an electric treadmill. The electric treadmill includes a base and an armrest. The base includes a front frame, a rear frame and a connecting assembly, wherein tread boards are provided within the front frame and the rear frame, and the front frame and the rear frame are hinged by the connecting assembly to enable the base to be folded. The armrest includes a vertical tube and a cross tube, wherein one end of the vertical tube is connected to the cross tube and the other end of the vertical tube is rotatably coupled to the base to allow the armrest to be foldable with respect to the base. The front frame and the rear frame may be folded with respect to each other, thus, a length of the base is greatly reduced for storage.

Disclosed is an omnidirectional treadmill which has several connected belt units with supporting frames and endless belts which are moved revolving in the first spatial direction. In the second spatial direction, the endless belts of the belt units are moved. The endless belts are driven in the second spatial direction preferably by gear wheels mounted on rolls and by a toothed shaft. The movement of all endless belts is synchronized by coupling with special tooth form crown gears arranged between the belt units.

A method for cooling a motor on a treadmill includes rotating a flywheel with a drive motor. A ring member coupled to the flywheel is be rotated with the flywheel. A pressure drop is generated in an annulus of the ring member between the drive motor and a lift motor. Intake air is drawn in a first direction across the lift motor toward the pressure drop.

The present invention provides a walking machine, relating to the technical field of fitness equipment, solving the technical problem existing in the prior art that the walking machine is low in overall safety and large in occupied space since a motor and a roller of the walking machine are exposed outside a frame. The walking machine comprises a base, a walking mechanism, a driving mechanism and a transmission mechanism connected with the driving mechanism, wherein the walking mechanism comprises a walking belt and a walking board for supporting the walking belt, the walking board is fixedly connected with the base, the transmission mechanism comprises at least three rollers rotatably provided on the frame, the front end and the rear end of the walking board are provided with a roller, respectively, a roller is provided below the roller at the front end of the walking board.
