DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The technical content of the present invention will become apparent by the detailed description of the following embodiments and the illustration of related drawings as follows.
With reference to FIG. 1 to FIG. 5 for a standing office walking equipment according to a first embodiment of the invention is depicted. The equipment is composed of a platform 21 placed on the ground and provided for a user to perform walking exercise, a working table 11 relatively crossing over the platform 21 and a position limiting device 40.
The working table 11 is downwardly extended with two support racks 12 spaced at an interval and leaning against the ground, and a table surface 13 capable of principally providing work is disposed on tops of the two support racks 12.
The platform 21 has a front end 22 and a rear end 23. While using the platform 21, its front end 22 is relatively below the working table 11, and the two support racks 12 are relatively located at two sides of the front end 22 of the platform 21 such that the platform 21 is placed at a first position SI capable of allowing the user to perform walking exercise thereon. A bottom of the front end 22 of the platform 21 is disposed with a supporting structure 31 provided for the platform 21 standing up. The supporting structure 31 comprises a bottom base 32, and pivot portions 211, 321 (as shown in FIG. 5) are disposed between the front end 22 of the platform 21 and the bottom base 32 such that the bottom base 32 is pivoted to the bottom of the front end 22 of the platform 21. A fastening element 33 provided for allowing the platform 21 to retain the standing state is disposed between the bottom base 32 and the platform 21. In the embodiment, the fastening element 33 is composed of a telescopic rod structure.
The position limiting device 40 comprises a baffle portion 41 and a placing-in portion 43. In the embodiment, the bottom base 32 is respectively extended and protruded with the baffle portion 41 toward two sides of the two support racks 12. Each baffle portion 41 has a baffle section 42 having curved arc shape. The two support racks 12 are respectively extended and protruded with the placing-in portion 43 toward a side of the bottom base 32. When the front end 22 of the platform 21 relatively located below the working table 11 is at the first position S1, each baffle portion 41 and the placing-in portion 43 are correspondingly disposed to each other such that the baffle section 42 of the baffle portion 41 downwardly surrounds the placing-in portion 43 through a crossing manner, and the two placing-in portions 43 protrude the baffle sections 42 of the baffle portions 41. Therefore, the placing-in portions 43 is restricted by the baffle portion 41 to prevent the working table 11 from escaping the platform 21, and a vibration of the platform 21 would not be transferred to the working table 11, so as to reduce an inference of the working of the exerciser.
Moreover, when the front end 22 of the platform 21 is relatively below the working table 11, the baffle section 42 of each baffle portion 41 crosses over the placing-in portion 43. The two placing-in portions 43 protrude in the baffle section 42 of the baffle portion 41. Therefore, when the working table 11 is displaced relative to the platform 21, as shown in FIG. 4, the placing-in portions 43 disposed at two support racks 12 are baffled by the baffle section 42 of the baffle portion 41 on the platform 21 to further limit the displacement of the working table 11 to prevent the working table 11 from toppling over, thereby ensuring the safety of the invention during the utilization.
When the platform 21 is not in use, the user only raises the front end 22 of the platform 21 to reach a predetermined height, the crossing configuration for the baffle portion 41 and the placing-in portion can be released, and the platform 21 can be separated from the working table 11.
Next, after the platform 21 is separated from the working table 11, as shown in FIG. 5, the user allows the platform 21 to upwardly pivot relative the bottom base 32 by upwardly turning over the platform 21, and the platform 21 can be individually stood and at a second position S2 through the effect of the fastening element 33 between the bottom base 32 and the platform 21. Accordingly, the space can be effectively saved to conveniently store the platform 21.
With reference to FIG. 6 to FIG. 8 for a second embodiment of the invention is depicted. The equipment is also composed of the platform 21 provided for the user to exercise thereon, a working table 11 crossing over the front end of the platform 21 and a position limiting device 40.
The working table 21 has a front end 22 and a rear end 23. While using the platform 21, its front end 22 is relatively below the working table 11, and the two support racks 12 are relatively located at two sides of the front end 22 of the platform 21 such that the platform 21 is at the first position S1 capable of allowing the user to perform walking exercise thereon. The front end 22 of the platform 21 is disposed with a supporting structure 31 b capable of allowing the platform 21 to stand up. The supporting structure 31 b is formed with a supporting surface 34, which is at the front end 22 of the platform 21, capable of leaning against the ground. In the embodiment, the supporting structure 31 b is composed of a supporting member vertically protruding toward the front end 22 of the platform 21. After the supporting member protrudes toward the front end 22 of the platform 21, it can form the supporting surface 34, which is at the front end 22 of the platform 21, leaning against the ground.
The position limiting device 40 comprises a baffle portion 41 and a placing-in portion 43. In the embodiment, the platform 21 is respectively extended and protruded with the baffle portion 41 toward two sides of the two support racks 12, and each baffle portion 41 respectively has a baffle section 42 having curved arc shape. The two support racks 12 are respectively extended and protruded with the placing-in portion 43 toward a side of the platform 21. When the front end 22 of the platform 21 is relatively below the working table 11 and at the first position SI, the each baffle portion 41 and the each placing-in portion 43 are correspondingly disposed to each other to allow the baffle section 42 of the baffle portion 41 to relatively cross over the placing-in portion 43 by means of crossing such that the two placing-in portions 43 protrude in the baffle section 42 of the baffle portion 41. Accordingly, it has fast assembly and convenience and limits the displacement of the working table 11 to prevent the working table 11 from turning over.
When the platform 21 is not in use, the user only raises the front end 22 of the platform 21 to reach a predetermined height, the cross assembly of the baffle portion 41 and the placing-in portion 43 can be released, and the platform 21 can be separated from the working table 11.
Next, after the platform 21 is separated from the working table 11, as shown in FIG. 8, the user can turn the platform 21 upwardly, and the supporting surface 34 formed by protruding the supporting member leans against the ground to support the platform 21 that is retained at a second position S2 by individually standing up, thereby achieving effects of saving space and storing in the platform 21.
While the means of specific embodiments in present invention has been described by reference drawings, numerous modifications and variatios could be made thereto by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention set forth in the claims, such as exchanging the position between the baffle portion and the placing-in portion. The modifications and variations should in a range limited by the specification of the present invention.
