Abstract

A folding treadmill comprises a running platform, two columns and detachable rotating assemblies; the running platform comprises multiple sub-running platforms that are hinged in sequence; the two columns are arranged on both sides of the running platform; the detachable rotating assemblies are used for dismantling and/or rotationally connecting the running platform and the columns. The roller assemblies facilitate the movement of the treadmill, making it easy to transport; the columns and the running platform can be folded through the detachable rotating assemblies, or the columns and the running platform can be separated through the detachable rotating assemblies, making it convenient for transportation and reducing the risk of damage during transportation, facilitating the replacement of components; the running platform can be easily folded and transported through the design of three sub-running platforms, taking up less space.
