FOLD-OUT TREADMILL

摘要

A foldable treadmill (10) includes a deck (12) having a rear end (30) that is hingedly attached to a stationary base (14). The deck (12) can be selectively rotated between an operational position, wherein the deck (12) is substantially level, and a storage position, wherein the deck (12) is lifted so that the deck is substantially upright. The treadmill (10) also includes a handrail (16) that is movably attached to the deck (12) and which has a first end attached to the base, and an opposing second end projecting above the front end of the deck when the deck is in the operational position. The handrail (16) is configured to automatically collapse into substantial alignment with the deck when the deck is rotated into the storage position. The deck (12) and the handrail (16) are configured such that the treadmill (10) can be selectively stored against a wall, and the deck selectviely rotated from the storage position to the operational position causing the handrail to also move without either the deck or handrail contacting the wall.
