However, when a user wishes to adjust the inclined angle of the support board, he to exert a larger force to lift the support board and to fix the adjusting pins, thereby causing inconvenience to the user in adjustment of the inclined angle of the support board.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0005] In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a treadmill, comprising a main body, and an angle adjusting device mounted on the main body. The main body includes a movable holding bar and a movable support board. The angle adjusting device includes a bolt rested on the holding bar to move therewith and secured to an end of the support board to move the support board so as to adjust an inclined angle of the support board.

[0006] The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a treadmill having an angle adjustable function to adjust the angle of the belt support board easily and conveniently.

[0007] Another objective of the present invention is to provide a treadmill, wherein when the holding bar is moved upward by the user, the bolt is moved upward by the holding bar, so that the upper transverse rod and the front ends of the two side rods are moved upward by the bolt so as to adjust the angle of the support board mounted between the two side rods.

[0008] A further objective of the present invention is to provide a treadmill, wherein the user only needs to hold and lift the holding bar so as to adjust the angle of the support board, thereby facilitating the user adjusting the angle of the support board.

[0009] Further benefits and advantages of the present invention will become apparent after a careful reading of the detailed description with appropriate reference to the accompanying drawings.
