ABSTRACT:
A treadmill or walker apparatus includes a mounting base, a pair of front rollers mounted fixedly on rotatable left and right front shafts which coaxially extend from a left front side to a right front side of the mounting base, a pair of rear rollers mounted rotatably on at least one rear shaft which extends from a left rear side to a right rear side of the mounting base, endless left and right foot belts engaging respectively one of the front rollers and one of the rear rollers, and a support unit disposed between the front and rear rollers to provide a supporting surface for the foot belts. The foot belts move independently and are to be treaded individually by the feet of the user, thereby preventing the action of the user's left foot from influencing the action of his right foot and vice-versa when the apparatus is in use. The apparatus may be used with a functional supporting frame that is in the form of a baby chair, a baby stroller, an exercise walker or any other suitable form. Disclosed structures include freely moving left and right side belts, fixed-tandem concurrently moving left and right side belts, and the latter moved by a motor.
