Problems solved by technology

However, the above two solutions may result in unstable foot support because the deflection / tilt resistance of the pedal is too low, or because the deflection / tilt resistance is too high, resulting in extra force on the feet, which instead becomes a burden on the user's feet

Abstract

The invention relates to a sports apparatus and pedal assemblies applied to the sports apparatus. The pedal assembles are assembled on the sports apparatus in a mode of one for each side (right and left sides) so as to guide the parts (performed repeated motion) of the feet of users, each pedal assembly is provided with a supporting surface on which the user can stand by using one foot, the whole supporting surface is in a shape of straightly extending in the width direction but gradually hunching up from the opposite two ends to the central area in the length direction, the central area is used for supporting the middle part between the toe tip end and heel end of a sole of a foot, and when the supporting surface bears the weight of a user, the whole supporting surface still can maintain the shape above. Therefore, each position in a foot motion trail and the middle part of a sole of a user can always be supported by the central area of the supporting surface of the pedal assembly, thereby avoiding a situation that the loads are all gathered on the toe tip or sole part of a foot.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to sports equipment, in particular to a sports equipment that uses left and right pedals to guide the user's feet to perform repeated movements, and a pedal assembly for the aforementioned sports equipment. Background technique [0002] In the field of sports equipment, there are many sports equipment that can guide the user's feet to perform cyclical exercise with the left and right pedals. Among them, except for the bicycle that most people are familiar with, the most typical one should be regarded as a kind of bicycle. Indoor exercise equipment called "elliptical exercise machine (Elliptical)", such as disclosed in patents such as U.S. No. 5,540,637, No. 5,685,804, and No. 6,689,019. The right two pedals are for the user to step on and apply force with both feet. Each pedal will support the user's soles to perform circular motion along a fixed, adjustable or variable elliptical closed track that can change with the appl...
