Abstract: A treadmill arrangement, which comprises a treadmill and also a transmitter (31) that is arranged to be connectable to a treadmill user and to transmit an electromagnetic signal (30), at least one receiver (32) that is arranged in connection with the treadmill to receive the signal transmitted by the transmitter (31), apparatus for processing (33) the signal, and apparatus for generating (34) information that is arranged to receive the information arriving from the signal processing apparatus (33) and to generate therefrom the user's position data (39) and/or control information (38). To provide accurate operation, the transmitter (31) transmitting the electromagnetic signal (30) is a transmitter part of a heart rate monitor or a heart rate measuring system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an arrangement in connection with an exercise device, which comprises a flywheel, wherein resistance of an exercise being performed is adjusted by decelerating the rotation of the flywheel. The method and arrangement also comprise adjusting the magnitude of the exercise resistance by means of a virtual flywheel simulation.

Abstract: A seat including a frame section and a seat section and backrest arranged thereon. The frame section is arranged movably in the back and forth direction to the base of the seat, whereby the backrest is pivotally connected to the frame section by a first lever structure for adjusting the tilt of the backrest. A second lever structure is pivotally connected to the frame section, and in one position it is arranged to lock the frame section to the base and in another position to release the frame section to move back and forth for longitudinal adjustment of the seat. The seat including an adjustment arranged to affect both the first and the second lever structure so that moving it in one way is arranged to affect the first and moving it in another way is arranged to affect the second lever structure.

Abstract: A treadmill that includes a frame supported against the floor at its front and back sections, a belt section arranged on the frame, first device for turning the belt at a desired speed, and second device for adjusting the tilt of the belt section with respect to the horizontal, and a hand support structure extending upward from the plane of the frame in the operating position of the treadmill and comprising a support part on both sides of the frame. Extending from both support parts, there are low supports forming a low frame that are arranged to extend substantially parallel to the frame in the operating position of the treadmill and to rest against the floor at least in the area of the ends.

Abstract: The invention relates to a treadmill comprising a frame structure as well as roller parts supported against the frame structure, a belt part, and means for rotating at least one of the roller parts, whereby the belt part is arranged to rotate as an endless loop around the roller parts. The frame structure is made of a self-supporting structure functioning as a tread base and formed as an integrated glued structure.

Abstract: A measuring device for measuring strength/acceleration comprising a frame part, which is arranged to be in contact with a power transmitting means. The frame part is formed as an independent separate component comprising a gap for receiving the power transmitting means and the gap is provided with a sensor element measuring strength/acceleration. The gap is arranged to be closed, whereby the frame part grips the power transmitting means on both sides of the sensor element and the sensor element comes in contact with the power transmitting means so that the power transmitting means forms a bend in the closed gap and is pressed against the sensor element by means of a force that is proportional to a force exerted in the direction of the power transmitting means.

Abstract: A seat comprising a frame section and a seat section and backrest arranged thereon. The frame section is arranged movably in the back and forth direction to the base of the seat, whereby the backrest is pivotally connected to the frame section by a first lever structure for adjusting the tilt of the backrest. A second lever structure is pivotally connected to the frame section, and in one position it is arranged to lock the frame section to the base and in another position to release the frame section to move back and forth for longitudinal adjustment of the seat. The seat comprises an adjustment means arranged to affect both the first and the second lever structure so that moving it in one way is arranged to affect the first and moving it in another way is arranged to affect the second lever structure.

Abstract: A treadmill comprising a subframe supported against the floor or a corresponding support surface, a frame supported on the subframe for rolls and a belt section running in an endless loop around the rolls, and means arranged between the subframe and frame to vertically shift the location of one end of the frame relative to the subframe. Support arms are arranged to the frame with first ends articulated to the frame and second ends arranged slidably into slide bars arranged to the subframe. Slide bars are formed of flat components fastened to the subframe, and sliding elements are arranged at second ends of the support arms and equipped with slots compatible with the flat components, whereby the slide bars are arranged to push into the slots, thus enabling the sliding of the sliding elements along the slide bar when the location of one end of the frame is shifted vertically relative to the subframe.

Abstract: An arrangement in connection with a treadmill, the arrangement comprising a basic unit composed of a frame and a running track movably arranged thereon and rails arranged in connection with the basic unit. To provide a flexibly modifiable structure arrangement comprises articulation parts on both sides of the basic unit, the articulation parts being arranged to be fastened to first points of the rails on both sides of the basic unit. A supporting rack extending in the longitudinal direction of the basic unit is arranged to the articulation parts, the supporting rack being arranged to be fastened from its free end to second points of the rails on both sides of the basic unit.

Abstract: A treadmill that comprises a frame, a belt section arranged on the frame and comprising a belt arranged in an endless loop around two rolls at a distance from each other, first means for turning the belt around a front roll and a back roll at a desired speed, and second means for adjusting the tilt of the belt section with respect to the horizontal. The second means comprise a rotary actuator arranged in the frame and having a support arm arranged to rest against the frame, and lifting arms, the angle of which is arranged to change with respect to the frame when the rotary actuator is working.
