Abstract A walking exerciser includes a frame structure having two board members on two sides and a handle member for a user to grip and two sets of swinging support members pivotally mounted on the board members of the frame structure. Each set of the swinging support members includes two swinging support members the upper ends of which are pivotally mounted on the board member and a step pedal pivotally mounted on the lower ends of the swinging support members. The swinging support members and said step pedal together form a substantially triangular pattern with a distance between the pivots on the upper ends of the swinging support members less than that between the pivots on the lower ends thereof so that the angle of the step pedal can be the most suitable foot angle for the user. Two resistance adjusting devices are disposed between said board members and the upper ends of the swinging support members. By means of tightening/loosening an adjusting knob of each resistance adjusting device, a frictional resistance against the swinging movement of the swinging support members can be adjusted.
A walking exerciser comprising a frame structure having two board members on two sides and a handle member for a user to grip and two sets of swinging support members pivotally mounted on said board members of said frame structure, said exerciser being characterized in that each set of swinging support members includes two swinging support members pivotally mounted on said board members by two pivots on upper ends of the swinging support members and a step pedal pivotally mounted on lower ends of said swinging support members by two pivots on the lower ends of the swinging support members.

A walking exerciser comprising a frame structure having two board members on two sides and a handle member for a user to grip and two sets of swinging support members pivotally mounted on said board members of said frame structure, said exerciser being characterized in that each set of swinging support members includes two swinging support members pivotally mounted on said board members by two pivots on upper ends of the swinging support members and a step pedal pivotally mounted on lower ends of said swinging support members by two pivots on the lower ends of the swinging support members.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
130 words
The walking exerciser as claimed in claim 1, further comprising two resistance adjusting devices disposed between said board members and upper ends of said swinging support members, each said resistance adjusting device comprising a main body pivotally mounted on said board member and an adjusting knob, said main body being fixedly attached to the upper ends of said swinging support members and a thread rod being passed through said main body and said board member to connect with said adjusting knob, several brake lining plates being disposed between said main body and said board member to frictionally contact with said board member so as to create a frictional resistance against swinging movement of said swinging support members, said adjusting knob being able to be tightened/loosened to adjust said frictional resistance.
