  • Publication number: 20200353304
    Abstract: A treadmill includes abase unit, a running belt unit and an idler-wheel unit. The base unit includes a base seat and two rotating shafts that are rotatably connected to the base seat. The running belt unit is trained around the rotating shafts such that rotation of the rotating shafts drives the running belt unit to move relative to the base seat. The running belt unit has an inner surface. The idler-wheel unit includes a supporting member and an idler-wheel. The supporting member is mounted to the base seat of the base unit. The idler-wheel is connected to the supporting member and abuts rotatably against the inner surface of the running belt unit for maintaining a predetermined tension of the running belt unit.

  • Patent number: 10702738
    Abstract: A treadmill includes a base frame and an one-way damping device. The one-way damping device includes a rotatable braking plate, an one-way clutch, and a resistance unit. The resistance unit is fixedly mounted to the base frame and abuts against the braking plate. The one-way clutch is sleeved on one of two rotating shafts of the base frame, is not engaged with the braking plate when the rotating shafts are rotated in a first rotational direction, and is engaged with the braking plate when the rotating shafts are rotated in a second rotational direction, which in turn drives the braking plate to co-rotate against a frictional force between the braking plate and the resistance unit.

  • Patent number: 7270561
    Abstract: A lamp arm fixing device of a junction box for a pendent lamp includes a lamp holder and a connection housing. When the connection housing is completely inserted in the lamp holder, the engaging plate of the lamp holder engages the positioning screw portion at one end of the connection housing whereby the connection housing is secured in the receiving hole of the lamp holder. The connection housing is defined with an open slot. A slide slot extends from an end of the open slot whereby when the connection housing is inserted in the lamp holder, the open slot is inserted in a direction facing the screw of the lamp holder and the screw extends through the open slot and is positioned in the slide slot. Thus, the female connector received in the connection housing is mated with the male connector received in the lamp holder in a proper direction.
