The rear guard belonging Treadmill design is seen in a recent patent application submitted by Peloton. In addition, it has the potential to serve as a solution for Peloton Tread+. However, how?
Some of the users are keeping a close eye on the recall of Tread+ and wondering what the next steps would be to get it back on the shelves. In this respect, Peloton has already made it clear that they are holding out optimism that the CPSC would give its blessing to the use of a rear guard as a solution to security difficulties.
When the company announced in October 2018 that they would be extending the time for returning the Tread+ that was subject to the recall to November 2023, they made explicit note of a rear guard. Bear in mind that this patent application does not specify if it has been authorized by CPSC or evaluated by them yet.
The application for the patent was first submitted on September 2022, but it was not made available to the public until this week. The patent submission includes several illustrations, each of which depicts a slatted treadmill with the Peloton trademark. It is an identical design to that which is seen in the Peloton Tread+. In addition, the name of the item is “Guard Assembly for Exercise Machine.”
As was just indicated, the pattern would consist of two distinct guards: one flexible one for outside, and it would be separated from a bigger, more solid guard by a tiny gap. It is said that this design would assist avoid pinching fingers while also enabling other things to get caught in any other way.
In the application for Peloton’s treadmill rear-guards, it is stated that the guard might be constructed with either rubber as well as bristles, or a mix of the two.
According to the patent, the rear guard has the potential to cooperate with other devices in specific circumstances, allowing the treadmill to be turned off or its speed to be reduced.
But patent applications only detail a few potential methods in which an invention may be put into practice. If this request is granted by authorities, we need to hold off judgment until we find out how recent version that will be combined with Peloton Tread+ will be developed and built.
Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) will need to examine and authorize any remedy that Peloton adopts as a repair for the Peloton Tread+. This may be a drawn-out procedure. Therefore, the fact that Peloton has submitted a patent application that outlines a possible solution does not suggest that the company is on the verge of being allowed to resume sales of the Peloton Tread+. Before anything like this can take place, there could be a lot more work to be done behind the scenes.
