划船健身機是結合全身運動兼具暖身伸展的健身器材，可提升心肺功能、肌耐力與燃燒脂肪的諸多優點，是廣受歡迎的休閒運動產品。本研究之目的在於提出一套連桿式划船健身機之系統化設計程序。首先針對划船健身機與划船動作進行調查與探討，歸納划船健身機之需求，並引出設計任務，進而決定本研究的設計目標，以建立連桿式划船健身機之設計規格表；其次利用機構構造設計程序進行划船健身機之創新設計；接著進行划船健身機的運動設計，應用電腦軟體進行尺寸合成與運動分析之工作；最後進行具體化設計，並將設計結果繪成實體圖。

Rowing exercise machines are the popular fitness goods with training the whole body, warm-up, and stretching. They have the advantages of promoting cardiopulmonary function, training muscles, and burning calories. The purpose of this work is to develop a systematic design procedure for the linkage-type rowing exercise machines. First, to investigate and discuss the rowing exercise machines and the rowing motion to induce the requirements and design tasks of rowing exercise machines. Then the design targets of this research are decided further in order to establish the design specification. Second, to carry out the creative design of rowing exercise machines by using the procedure of creative mechanism design. Third, to complete the kinematic design of rowing exercise machines. Computer software is utilized for the work of dimensional synthesis and kinematic analysis. Finally, to perform the embodiment design and to establish 3-D model drawing of the design solutions.
