Benefits of technology

The patent text describes an improved shock absorption mechanism for a treadmill. The mechanism uses strong magnets to buffer shocks and has no noise, a long service life, and good comfort. The design includes a magnet frame with at least two accommodating cavities and a reinforcing rubber column to provide support and prevent the running platform from being pressed too low. Overall, the technical effect of the invention is to provide a better shock absorption mechanism for treadmills.

Problems solved by technology

However, for the existing treadmills that provide shock absorption by springs, the running platforms of the treadmills compress the springs to cause squeak noise when in use, and the springs gradually lose elasticity after long-term use, thus the shock absorption effect is also gradually weakened.

embodiment 1

[0017]Referring to FIG. 1, a shock absorption mechanism for a treadmill provided by this embodiment comprises a running platform 101, a base 102 and rubber columns 103, wherein the rubber columns 103 are four rubber columns which are respectively disposed at the bottom of four corners of the running platform 101 and used for being fixed to the base 102.

[0018]Referring to FIG. 2, two magnet frames 104 are fixed at a middle part of each side of the running platform 101, and two magnet frames 104 are fixed at a middle part of each side of the base 102, thus forming four sets of magnet frames 104 which are vertically opposite to one another in pairs; an opening at one side of the magnet frame 104 is hollow inside to form an accommodating cavity therein, a partition plate 106 is fixed in the accommodating cavity to form two cavities in the accommodating cavity, magnets 107 are respectively fixed in the two cavities, and the magnet frame 104 at the opening side is preferably movably fixed...

Abstract

The invention provides a shock absorption mechanism for a treadmill. The shock absorption mechanism for a treadmill consists of a running platform, a base and rubber columns connecting the running platform and the base, wherein opposing magnets are respectively fixed below middle parts of two sides of the running platform and above middle parts of two sides of the base, and the magnets on the running platform and the magnets on the base have the same magnetic pole, thus forming a repulsive force for shock absorption. Such shock absorption mechanism has the advantages of no noise, a long service life, good comfort and the like when in use.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The invention provides a treadmill accessory and in particular relates to a shock absorption mechanism for a treadmill.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]A shock absorption mechanism is generally arranged between a running platform and a base of an existing treadmill so as to reduce noise and protect the knee joint of a user. An existing treadmill is generally provided with rubber columns below four corners of a rectangular running platform, and the running platform is fixed on a base by the rubber columns, while a middle part of the running platform is pressed against the base by several springs, thus providing a damping and buffering action. However, for the existing treadmills that provide shock absorption by springs, the running platforms of the treadmills compress the springs to cause squeak noise when in use, and the springs gradually lose elasticity after long-term use, thus the shock absorption effect is also gradually weakened.SUMMARY OF THE INVENT...
