DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0034] In the following, the technical solutions of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0035] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a water-resistance rowing exercise machine, which can comprise a bracket 100, two water tanks 1 fixed to the bracket 100, a linkage mechanism 2, and a rotation angle adjustment mechanism.

[0036] As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the linkage mechanism 2 can comprise a rotation shaft assembly 21, a pulley 22, a conveyor belt 23, a conveyor belt guide wheel 231, a handle 24, an elastic rope 25 and an elastic rope guide wheel 251. The rotation shaft assembly 21 can comprise a rotation shaft 211 whose axis is horizontally arranged, and two connection shafts 212 screwed to two ends of the rotation shaft 211. The pulley 22 can comprise a first cylinder 221, a second cylinder 222 coaxially sleeved around the middle of the first cylinder 221, and a number of connection plates 223 provided between the first cylinder 221 and the second cylinder 222 and spaced apart from one another. Two ends of the elastic rope 25 are fixedly connected to the bracket 100. A middle portion of the elastic rope 25 passes through a gap 223a between the two adjacent connection plates 223, so that it can be hooked by one of the connection plates 223. The conveyor belt 23 is wound on the second cylinder 222, and one end thereof is fixed to the second cylinder 222, and the other end thereof is connected to the handle 24. When the handle 24 is pulled, the pulley 22 is rotated, so that the elastic rope 25 can be tensioned and wound around the first cylinder 221. When no pulling force is applied to the handle 24, the pulley 22 is subjected to the tension of the elastic rope 25 and is rotated reversely, so that the conveyor belt 23 can be rewound on the second cylinder 222.

[0037] As shown in FIG. 5, a first impeller 11 and a second impeller 12 are provided coaxially inside each water tank 1. The first impeller 11 can comprise a first plate portion 111 and a plurality of first blades 112 distributed on the periphery of the first plate portion 111. The second impeller 12 can comprise a second plate portion 121 and a plurality of second blades 122 distributed on the periphery of the second plate portion 121. Two ends of the rotation shaft assembly 21 are respectively inserted into the two water tanks 1, and each connection shaft 212 is fixed to one of the first impellers 11 respectively so that the first impellers 11 can always rotate synchronously with the rotation shaft assembly 21.

[0038] The rotation angle adjustment mechanism is configured to adjust the relative rotation angle between the first impeller 11 and the second impeller 12 so that the first blades 112 and the second blades 122 can be approach to or depart from each other.

[0039] Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the rotation angle adjustment mechanism can comprise a first gear portion 31, a second gear portion 32, a knob 33, a compression spring 34, a return spring 35, and a clamping mechanism 36. The first gear portion 31 is fixed to the second plate portion 121 on a side away from the first plate portion 111 by a fixing screw 311. A push shaft 321 is fixed on the second gear portion 32, and the push shaft 321 is fixed to the knob 33 after passing through a push shaft hole 1a on a side wall of the water tank 1. The return spring 35 is provided between the knob 33 and the side wall of the water tank 1. When the knob 33 is pressed forward, the knob 33 drives the push shaft 321 and the first gear portion 31 to move forward, so that the second gear portion 32 can be meshed with the first gear portion 31. At this time when the knob 33 is pushed forward continuously, the second gear portion 32 pushes the first gear portion 31 and the second plate portion 121 to move close to the first plate portion 111, so that the clamping mechanism 36 can be disengaged from the second plate portion 121 to release the second plate portion 121. The compression spring 34 is disposed between the first plate portion 111 and the second plate portion 121 to always bear against the second plate portion 121 so that the second plate portion 121 can be always biased in a direction away from the first plate portion 111. When the knob 33 is no longer pressed, the second plate portion 121 is reset by the elasticity of the compression spring 34, so that the clamping mechanism 36 can continue to clamp it, and the knob 33 can be reset by the elasticity of the return spring 35, and the second gear portion 32 can be disengaged from the first gear portion 31.

[0040] The clamping mechanism 36 can comprise a clamping plate 361, a fastening screw 362, a compression ring 363, and four limiting posts 364. Each of the limiting posts 364 is provided with a cap 364a. The clamping plate 361 is key-connected to the end of the connection shaft 212, so that the clamping plate 361 can rotate synchronously with the rotation shaft assembly 21. In some embodiments, the end of the connection shaft 212 is provided with a stepped portion 212a, and an insertion hole 361a corresponding to the shape of the end surface of the connection shaft 212 is arranged in the middle of the clamping plate 361. When the end of the connection shaft 212 is inserted into the insertion hole 361a, the clamping plate 361 can rotate synchronously with the connection shaft 212. The limiting posts 364 pass through the perforations 361b on the clamping plate 361, and the fastening screw 362 is screwed into an internal threaded hole 212b on the end of the connection shaft 212, so that the fastening screw 362 can press the compression ring 363, and the compression ring 363 can press the caps 364a on the clamping plate 361, making the clamping plate 361 to be pressed on the stepped portion 212a so as not to be able to move in the axial direction of the connection shaft 212. There are four sets of hole groups 121a corresponding to the limiting posts 364 perforated on the second plate portion 121. Each set of hole groups 121a can comprise two limiting holes 121a capable of accommodating the limiting posts 364, and an angle between perpendicular connection lines from the two limiting holes 121a of each hole group 121a to the axis of the rotation shaft assembly 21 is 30?.

[0041] Under the action of the compression spring 34, the second plate portion 121 is pressed by the compression spring 34 and moves close to the clamping mechanism 36, so that the limiting posts 364 can be inserted into the limiting holes 121a. At this time, the rotation shaft assembly 21 can drive the first impeller 11 and the second impeller 12 to rotate synchronously therewith. When the knob 33 is pushed to bring the second plate portion 121 to be closer to the first plate portion 111, the limiting posts 364 can disengage from the limiting holes 121a, and at this time the first impeller 11 and the second impeller 12 can rotate relative to each other. Therefore, when the knob 33 is further rotated, the knob 33 can drive the second gear portion 32, the first gear portion 31 and the second impeller 12, to rotate. When it is rotated by a rotation angle of 30?, the knob 33 is released, and then the second impeller 12 is reset under the action of the compression spring 34, so that the limiting posts 364 can enter another limiting holes 121a and the rotation shaft assembly 21 can continue to drive the second impeller 12 to rotate.

[0042] In some embodiments, it is of course to be understood that the angle between the two perpendicular lines from the two limiting holes 121a of each hole group 121a to the axis of the rotation shaft assembly 21 may be 30?, because the number of the first blades 112 and the second blades 122 is six respectively. If the number of the first blades 112 and the second blades 122 are set to other number, for example, two or three, then the number of the limiting holes 121a in each hole group 121a may also be more than two, and an angle between the perpendicular connection lines from adjacent limiting holes 121a to the axis of the rotation shaft assembly 21 may also be less than or greater than 30?.

[0043] The second plate portion 121 is provided with a bowl portion 121b protruding toward the side away from the first plate portion 111, and the compression spring 34 bears against the bowl portion 121b. The bowl portion 121b is configured to accommodate the compression spring 34, so that other portions of the second impeller 12 except the bowl portion 121b can be made closer to the first impeller 11.

[0044] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 19, the water-resistance rowing exercise machine can further comprise a pedal part 105 and a linear guide rail 101. A seat cushion 102 capable of sliding along the linear guide rail 101 is mounted on the linear guide rail 101. The linear guide rail 101 is mounted on a telescopic plate 103, and a slide rail 104 is provided on the bracket 100. The telescopic plate 103 is capable of being extended or retracted on the slide rail 104. When the machine is not in use, the telescopic plate 103 can be retracted toward the inside of the bracket, thereby reducing the floor space and facilitating storage.

[0045] Obviously, the aforementioned embodiments are only examples for a clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the way of implementation. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. There is no need and it is impossible to exhaustively list all implementations. Any obvious changes or modifications derived from this disclosure are still within the scope of the disclosure.
