A walking exerciser includes a horizontal frame and an upright frame extending uprightly from the horizontal frame, and a treadmill body attached to and disposed over the horizontal frame. An inclination adjustment mechanism includes two rear links having lower ends mounted pivotally on a rear portion of the horizontal frame and that are inclined forwardly and upwardly. Two horizontal first pivots extend through upper ends of the rear links, and connect the rear links rotatably to the treadmill body. Two front links have upper ends sleeved rotatably on the first pivots, respectively, and are inclined forwardly and downwardly. Two slots are formed in the horizontal frame. Two sliding members are fixed respectively to lower ends of the front links and are received slidably within the slide slots. A connecting member interconnects the front links fixedly. A movable tube has a rear end that is connected pivotally to the connecting member, and a front end surface that is formed with a threaded hole. A threaded rod has a rear end portion that engages threadedly the threaded hole in the tube. A second pivot extends in a direction parallel to the first pivots, and connects a front end portion of the threaded rod rotatably to the treadmill body.

[ I claim:] [1.]1. A walking exerciser comprising:a supporting member includinga horizontal frame with front and rear portions, andan upright frame disposed on and extending uprightly from said horizontal frame;a treadmill body attached to and disposed over said horizontal frame, and having a front section and a rear section; andan inclination adjustment mechanism includingtwo rear links which have upper ends, and lower ends that are mounted pivotally on said rear portion of said horizontal frame and that are inclined forwardly and upwardly, said rear links being secured to each other,two horizontal first pivots extending through said upper ends of said rear links and attached to said treadmill body, thereby connecting said rear links rotatably to said treadmill body,two front links which have lower ends, and upper ends that are sleeved rotatably on said horizontal first pivots, respectively, and that are inclined forwardly and downwardly,two slide slots formed in said supporting member and extending rearwardly from said front portion of said horizontal frame to said rear portion of said horizontal frame,two sliding members fixed respectively to said lower ends of said front links and received respectively and slidably within said slide slots in said supporting member,a connecting member interconnecting said front links fixedly,a movable tube having a rear end that is connected pivotally to said connecting member, and a front end surface that is formed with a threaded hole in said tube,a threaded rod which has a rear end portion that engages threadedly said threaded hole in said tube, and a front end portion,a horizontal second pivot disposed to extend in a direction parallel to said first pivots, said second pivot passing through said front end portion of said threaded rod and connecting said threaded rod rotatably to said treadmill body such that said treadmill body can be folded manually on said upright frame, anda drive unit disposed on one of said supporting member and said treadmill body and connected operably to said threaded rod for rotating said threaded rod; andwhereby, when said threaded rod is rotated to move said tube relative to said threaded rod, said sliding members move within said slide slots in said supporting member so as to move said lower ends of said front links toward and away from said lower ends of said rear links, thereby adjusting inclination of said treadmill body with respect to said horizontal frame of said supporting member.
