Abstract

Gait tread simulation fitness equipment is provided, which utilizes a multi-linkage mechanism disposed on a main body and a suspending side frame to make an action track of a pedal to match the natural gait tread well. In addition, the relative position of the movable pivot can be adjusted to obtain different exercise modes for training different muscle groups, so as to achieve the objective of exercise training.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A gait tread simulation fitness equipment, comprising:
 a main body, having a support frame, and a central stand disposed at a front end of the support frame and having a first pivot;   two suspending side frames respectively disposed at two sides of the main body and each suspending side frame disposed with a suspending pivot;   a rotation mechanism having two active members disposed at two sides of the first pivot correspondingly and rotated about the first pivot respectively; and   two guiding mechanisms connected pivotally at two sides of the central stand respectively, each guiding mechanism comprising a tread rod and a suspending rod, the active member of the rotation mechanism and the suspending rod that are at the same side connected by the tread rod, one end of the suspending rod connected pivotally to the suspending pivot, the other end of the suspending rod and the tread rod connected pivotally to a movable pivot, and a pedal disposed on the tread rod; when the pedal is treaded, the pedal is actuated along a closed track to enable the guiding mechanism being drawn back and forth, wherein a distance of the suspending pivot relative to the movable pivot is adjusted, or a distance of the movable pivot relative to the pedal is changed to facilitate the closed track matching a natural gait tread.   
     
     
         2 . The gait tread simulation fitness equipment of  claim 1 , wherein the tread rod further comprises a stretching apparatus adjusting a length of the tread rod or a position of the movable pivot. 
     
     
         3 . The gait tread simulation fitness equipment of  claim 1 , wherein the suspending rod further comprises a length adjustment apparatus adjusting a length of the suspending rod so as to further adjust a position of the movable pivot. 
     
     
         4 . The gait tread simulation fitness equipment of  claim 1 , wherein the suspending rod further comprises a position adjustment apparatus adjusting a relative position of the suspending pivot. 
     
     
         5 . The gait tread simulation fitness equipment of  claim 1 , further comprising a linkage unit having a triple-joint link and a double-joint link, wherein a Stephenson six-bar linkage is comprised of the linkage unit, the rotation mechanism and the guiding mechanism. 
     
     
         6 . A gait tread simulation fitness equipment, comprising:
 a main body, having a support frame, and a central stand disposed at a front end of the support frame and having a first pivot and a second pivot;   two suspending side frames respectively disposed at two sides of the main body and each suspending side frame disposed with a suspending pivot; and   two guiding six-bar linkages respectively disposed at two sides of the central stand, each of the guiding six-bar linkages disposed at the first pivot and the suspending pivot that are at the same side to form a constrained kinematic chain; the guiding six-bar linkage comprising a crank, a swing rod, a triple-joint link, a tread rod and a suspending rod, wherein the crank is connected pivotally to the first pivot, the swing rod is connected pivotally to the second pivot and extends to form a handle, one end of the suspending rod is connected pivotally to the suspending pivot, the other end of the suspending rod and the tread rod are connected pivotally to a movable pivot, the triple-joint link is respectively connected to the crank, the swing rod and the tread rod, the triple-joint link and the suspending rod are connected by the tread rod, and a pedal is disposed on the tread rod to facilitate the pedal actuating along a gait track.   
     
     
         7 . The gait tread simulation fitness equipment of  claim 6 , wherein the tread rod further comprises a first adjustment apparatus adjusting a length of the tread rod so as to further change an aspect of the gait track. 
     
     
         8 . The gait tread simulation fitness equipment of  claim 6 , wherein the tread rod further comprises a first adjustment apparatus adjusting a relative position of the movable pivot so as to further change an aspect of the gait track. 
     
     
         9 . The gait tread simulation fitness equipment of  claim 6 , wherein the suspending rod further comprises a second adjustment apparatus adjusting a length of the suspending rod so as to further change an aspect of the gait track. 
     
     
         10 . The gait tread simulation fitness equipment of  claim 6 , wherein the suspending rod further comprises a third adjustment apparatus adjusting a relative position of the suspending pivot.
