Abstract: A system (200) comprising: a display screen (102; 300) associated with an exercise device (100); a sensor module (112; 304) associated with the display screen (102; 300); and a controller (110; 302) having a processor (116; 308) and memory (118; 310) for storing instructions, the processor (116; 308) executing the instructions to: based on output of the sensor module (112; 304), detect any one or more of position or proximity of the display screen (102; 300) in relation to the exercise device (100); and selectively change content displayed on the display screen (102) based on any one or more of the position and/or the proximity.

Abstract: A protective cover and system for detecting objects within or near an entrapment area on a treadmill or devices that incorporate a conveyor belt. A controller enables the treadmill to operate normally when no objects are detected within or near an entrapment area and is designed to stop the conveyor when an object is detected within or near the entrapment area.

Abstract: Treadmill protective cover and methods of use are disclosed herein. An example system includes a protective cover for a treadmill, a sensor associated with the treadmill or the protective cover, the sensor detecting when an object is near or within an entrapping area between the protective cover and a conveyor of the treadmill, and a controller configured to receive signals from the sensor, the controller allowing the conveyor to freely operate when no objects are sensed within the entrapping area and stopping the conveyor when an object is sensed within the entrapping area.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a gymnastic machine (1) comprising a base structure (2) having a front transmission assembly (23) and a rear transmission assembly (24), wherein said base structure comprises two lateral longitudinal members (27, 28) between which a sliding belt (22) slides, a sliding belt (22), associated to said base structure (2), on which a user can perform a gymnastic exercise, wherein said sliding belt (22) is configured to rotate by means of said front transmission assembly (23) and rear transmission assembly (24) according to a sliding direction (X), wherein said sliding belt (22) is arranged between said two lateral longitudinal members (27, 28) and an electric motor (3), having at least one stator (33) and at least one rotor (31, 31?, 32), said electric motor (3, 3?) being kinematically coupled to said front transmission assembly (23), or to said rear transmission assembly (24), for moving said sliding belt (22), said electric motor (3, 3?) being of axial type.
