Benefits of technology

The present invention is a stationary bike that is easy and quick to assemble, and can be used on conventional stationary bikes without needing additional conversion costs.

Problems solved by technology

It is often that people living a modern life are not free to perform physical exercise outdoors due to tight schedules or weather conditions.
However, when a user excises using the conventional stationary bike as described above, he / she performs repeated pedaling movements without getting any kind of feedback from the stationary bike.
Particularly, this working-out pattern lacks for feedback in the form of transverse jolts as experienced by the user when he / she otherwise rides a real bicycle on the road.
Therefore, the conventional stationary bikes are not weak in providing lifelike riding experience and thus less interesting as exercise equipment for people to use.

Embodiment Construction

[0029]Referring to FIGS. 1 through 4, in the first embodiment of the present invention, a stationary bike 10 comprises a main frame 11. The main frame 11 has a saddle 12 for a user to sit thereon, a handle 13 for the user to hole, and a crank mechanism 14 for the user to drive by pedaling. The main frame 11 stands on the ground 51 using a base 15 supporting it from below. The base 15 has an end surface 151 facing the ground 51 and a plurality of elastic feet 21 that are attached to the end surface 151 of the base 15 facing the ground 51 and arranged symmetrically with intervals therebetween. The elastic feet 21 are configured to press on the ground 51. In the present embodiment, the base 15 has an H-shaped body, and four elastic feet 21 are attached to four corners of the end surface 151 of the base 15, respectively. The elastic feet 21 may be made of a soft, elastic material, such as rubber, casting polyurethanes, thermoplastic carbon fiber composite materials (TP), nitrile-butadie...

Abstract

A stationary bike has a main frame. The main frame has a base that is configured to be laid on the ground. The base has its end surface facing the ground provided with a plurality of elastic feet that are arranged symmetrically with intervals therebetween for pressing on the ground. The elastic foot is made of a soft, elastic material and contains therein an inner space defined by a circular wall. When the elastic foot receives an external force from the base, the circular wall of the elastic foot deform correspondingly, thereby allowing the main frame to jolt and simulate road-riding experience.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Technical Field[0002]The present invention relates to stationary bikes for indoor exercise, and more particularly to a stationary bike that provides simulation of road-riding experience.[0003]2. Description of Related Art[0004]It is often that people living a modern life are not free to perform physical exercise outdoors due to tight schedules or weather conditions. This fact has brought about the prevalence of indoor fitness / exercise gear. A stationary bike is a fitness device that provides simulation of cycling exercise, and it uses a stationary transmission to train and enhance a user's muscles and cardio-respiratory capacity.[0005]As shown in FIG. 15, a conventional stationary bike mainly has a frame 91 for a user to sit thereon and an H-shaped base 92 supporting the frame 91 from below. The base 92 has its four bottom corners each equipped with an anti-slip foot 93 that presses on the ground. The anti-slip foot 93 has an upright screw 931 for...
