Woodway USA, Inc.

A treadmill is provided. The treadmill includes a frame; a first side support coupled to and extending substantially vertically upwards relative to the frame; a second side support coupled to and extending substantially vertically upwards relative to the frame; and a handrail assembly having a first side coupled to the first side support. The first side includes an upper and a lower member vertically spaced from one another and a front and a rear push member spaced apart from one another along a longitudinal length of the treadmill. The front and rear push members couple to the upper and lower members.

A treadmill includes a frame; a running belt configured to rotate relative to the frame; and a motor coupled to the running belt. The motor is operable in a plurality of user controlled operating modes. In a first operating mode, a holding torque of the motor is disabled to allow the running belt to substantially freely rotate so that a user of the treadmill provides a force of rotation to the running belt. In a second operating mode, the motor is adapted to resist rotation of the running belt.

In a second operating mode, the motor is adapted to resist rotation of the running belt. In a third operating mode, the motor is adapted to provide a force of rotation to the running belt at a desired speed.

A treadmill is provided. The treadmill includes a frame; a first side support coupled to and extending substantially vertically upwards relative to the frame; a second side support coupled to and extending substantially vertically upwards relative to the frame; and a handrail assembly having a first side coupled to the first side support and a second side coupled to the second side support, each of the first and second sides of the handrail assembly comprising upper and lower members vertically spaced from one another and front and rear push members spaced apart from one another along a longitudinal length of the treadmill, the front and rear push members coupling the upper and lower members, and collectively providing a plurality of hand placement positions including at least two substantially horizontally aligned hand placement positions and at least one primarily vertically aligned hand placement position.

A treadmill includes a frame, a running belt coupled to the frame, and a handrail coupled to the frame. The treadmill further includes a display device configured to display information to a user of the treadmill, and a light source coupled to the handrail. The light source is configured to emit a light at least partly away from a front of the treadmill, whereby at least one of a color, a transition characteristic, or a brightness of light from the light source is varied based on collected use information.

A treadmill includes a frame having a front end and a rear end, substantially opposite the front end; a front shaft assembly coupled to the frame proximate the front end of the frame; a rear shaft assembly coupled to the frame proximate the rear end of the frame; a running belt disposed about the front and rear shaft assemblies that has a running surface including a curved portion; and a first bumper and a second bumper, the first and second bumpers coupled to the frame proximate the running belt such that the first and second bumpers are each disposed between the running belt and the frame. In use, the first and second bumpers are configured to selectively engage and restrict movement of the running belt towards at least a portion of the frame.

A manually powered treadmill includes a front rotatable element and a rear rotatable element coupled to a frame; a bearing assembly at least partially supporting one of the front or rear rotatable elements; and a running belt disposed about the front and rear rotatable elements. The bearing assembly includes a predefined low viscosity bearing fluid. The running belt defines a non-planar running surface. The running belt includes a first endless belt and a plurality of slats, each slat having a first side and a second side and coupled to the first endless belt. Each slat in the plurality of slats defines at least one aperture, and the at least one aperture is structured to receive a fastener to facilitate coupling to the first endless belt.

A treadmill includes a frame and a running belt coupled to the frame. The running belt is configured to rotate relative to the frame. The treadmill includes at least one sensor configured to collect information regarding a rotation of the running belt and a use of the treadmill by a user of the treadmill. The treadmill also includes a light source coupled to the frame and configured to emit a light at least partly away from a front of the treadmill to at least partly illuminate a rear of the treadmill.

A treadmill includes a frame having a front end and a rear end, substantially opposite the front end; a front shaft assembly coupled to the frame proximate the front end of the frame; a rear shaft assembly coupled to the frame proximate the rear end of the frame; a running belt disposed about the front and rear shaft assemblies; and a bumper coupled to the frame proximate the running belt such that the bumper is disposed between the running belt and the frame. The bumper includes a partially rounded surface and a substantially flat surface. In use, the partially rounded surface and the substantially flat surface of the bumper are configured to selectively engage and restrict movement of the running belt towards at least a portion of the frame.
