Abstract (en)
A pace-adjusting mechanism of an elliptical cross trainer having a U-shaped coupling rod (19) pivotally and laterally disposed on a bottom support frame (18). An electric adjusting mechanism (30) is interposed between the U-shaped coupling rod and the frame unit (10). The electric adjusting mechanism (30) includes a motor (31), a guide spindle sleeve (32) and a telescopic spindle (32). When the telescopic spindle (32) is driven to be moved, it results in the adjustment of the relative angle of the U-shaped coupling rod (19), and wherein an L-shaped connecting rod (20) is pivotally coupled to each top side of the U-shaped coupling rod (19) while the end of the L-shaped connecting rod (20) is pivotally attached to a treadle plank (12) so that the vertical position of the treadle planks (12) is adjustable by changing the angle of the U-shaped coupling rod (19) and, therefore, the adjustment of the exercise pace is achieved.
