System integrating display interface and control interface of running machine

Abstract

A system that integrates a graphic display and a control interface of a running machine includes a graphic display, a top control unit for receiving biological information and control information having at least running speed information so as to show the information on the graphic display according to one of mode setting choices on the graphic display and a control device operably connected to the graphic display and the top control unit so as to transmit a control signal for control of the running machine. Therefore, a user is able to use the control information on the graphic display to send a command to the control device so as to accomplish interaction requirements.

1 . A system for integrating a graphic display and a control interface of a running machine, the integrating system comprising: 
 a graphic display;    a top control unit for receiving biological information and control information having at least running speed information so as to show the information on the graphic display according to one of mode setting choices on the graphic display; and    a control device operably connected to the graphic display and the top control unit so as to transmit a control signal for control of the running machine,    whereby a user is able to use the control information on the graphic display to send a command to the control device so as to accomplish interaction requirements.    
   
   
       2 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the control device may be selected from a group consisting of a remote control and a touch panel.  
   
   
       3 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising a video/audio transformer having multiple video/audio interfaces for receiving and processing video or audio information so as to send processed video or audio signal to the top control unit and a switch to switch among control information, biological information, or specific video/audio information such that the top control unit is able to display or play the specific video/video information via the graphic display or a speaker.  
   
   
       4 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the video/audio information is selected from a group consisting of DVD, VCD, CD, or MP3.  
   
   
       5 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising an adjusting device adapted to be mounted on handles of the running machine for sending a control signal to the top control unit.  
   
   
       6 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the graphic display is selected from a group consisting of a liquid crystal display, a plasma display, a CRT screen or a projector.  
   
   
       7 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the graphic display has multiple mode setting choices stored in a memory card readable for a card reader.  
   
   
       8 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the graphic display has multiple mode setting choices stored in a memory readable for the top control unit.  
   
   
       9 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising a bottom control unit controlled by the top control unit to control a transmission subsystem.  
   
   
       10 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the transmission subsystem includes a motor for controlling rotation speed of a running belt of the running machine so as to adjust speed o the running belt.  
   
   
       11 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the transmission subsystem includes an elevation motor for elevating a running board of the running machine so as to control slope of the running belt.  
   
   
       12 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 9  further comprising an emergency stop mechanism which includes two terminals respectively connected to a magnetic seat formed on the bottom control unit via a magnetic connector formed on a distal end of a rope and the runner via a clip formed on a proximal end of the rope such that when the runner is tripped or falls to the running belt, the magnetic connector is pulled away from the magnetic seat, which results in that the electrical connection in the bottom control unit is cut off and thus the machine is terminated.  
   
   
       13 . The integrating system as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the biological information includes blood pressure, pulse, muscle signal or any other measured information.
