[0032] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0033] like Figure 1-9 As shown, the utility model provides a front and rear position adjustment structure of a seat cushion of an exercise bike, comprising a seat cushion 1, a support sleeve 2, an adjustment seat 3, an adjustment tube 4, a first wedge 5, a second wedge 6, a screw 7 and a knob 8; the support sleeve 2 is fixedly arranged on the frame 10 of the exercise bike, the adjustment seat 3 is horizontally arranged on the top of the support sleeve 2, and the adjustment seat 3 is specifically arranged horizontally along the front and rear direction, and a sliding channel 31 is provided inside the adjustment seat 3 along the front and rear direction, and the middle part of the adjustment tube 4 is slidably penetrated in the sliding channel 31, and the seat cushion 1 is fixed to one end of the adjustment tube 4, and the adjustment tube 4 slides back and forth to drive the seat cushion 1 to move back and forth, thereby realizing the position adjustment of the seat cushion 1.

[0034] To adjust the position of the seat cushion 1 , a structure for locking the adjustment tube 4 is also required. The utility model achieves locking and unlocking of the adjustment tube 4 through a screw 7 , a knob 8 , a first wedge 5 and a second wedge 6 . Specifically, a knob 8 is provided at the other end of the adjusting tube 4, which can only be rotated but cannot move forward and backward. An inner cavity 41 is provided inside the adjusting tube 4, and the first wedge block 5 is slidingly arranged in the inner cavity 41 back and forth. The screw 7 is located inside the inner cavity 41, and one end of the screw 7 is screwed to the first wedge block 5, and the other end of the screw 7 is connected to the knob 8; the side wall of the adjusting tube 4 is provided with a mounting hole 42 connecting the inner cavity 41 and the sliding channel 31, and the second wedge block 6 is arranged in the mounting hole 42 and wedge-matched with the first wedge block 5; rotating the knob 8 can drive the first wedge block 5 to move forward and backward, and the first wedge block 5 can push the second wedge block 6 to press against the inner wall of the adjusting seat 3, so that the adjusting tube 4 is clamped by the first wedge block 5 and the adjusting seat 3 and cannot move, and the adjusting tube 4 and the seat cushion 1 are locked. The first wedge block 5 can also push the second wedge block 6 to loosen the inner wall of the adjusting seat 3 when it moves forward and backward. At this time, the adjusting tube 4 is unlocked, and the adjusting tube 4 can be moved forward and backward to adjust the front and rear position of the seat cushion 1. In addition, one end of the screw 7 and the adjusting tube 4 can be the front end or the rear end, which is not limited in the present invention, but is preferably the front end, and the knob 8 is set at the rear end of the adjusting tube 4 to facilitate user adjustment.

[0035] In the present invention, the seat cushion 1 can be unlocked or locked by rotating the knob 8, and the adjustment is convenient and quick. During the adjustment, the adjustment tube 4 drives the second wedge 6 to slide back and forth. The second wedge 6 can slide to any position in the sliding channel 31 and can be locked as long as it does not leave the sliding channel 31. It is a stepless adjustment with a wide range of adjustment. In addition, Figure 1 As shown, the front-rear position adjustment structure of the present invention is not only arranged on the rear side of the frame 10 to adjust the front-rear position of the seat cushion 1, but can also be arranged on the front side of the frame 10 to adjust the front-rear position of the armrest.

[0036] Key references Figure 3-6 , the second wedge block 6 is located above the first wedge block 5, and the bottom surface of the second wedge block 6 is in an oblique wedge fit with the top surface of the first wedge block 5, that is, the bottom surface of the second wedge block 6 and the top surface of the first wedge block 5 are inclined surfaces of oblique wedge fit. When the knob 8 is turned to move the first wedge block 5 back and forth, the first wedge block 5 will push the second wedge block 6 to move upward to press against the inner wall of the adjustment seat 3, or push the second wedge block 6 to move downward to separate from the inner wall of the adjustment seat 3. Of course, the second wedge block 6 can also be set below the first wedge block 5, and the first wedge block 5 can push the second wedge 6 to move downward to press against the inner wall of the adjustment seat 3, or loosen the inner wall of the adjustment seat 3. However, the second wedge block 6 is preferably set above the first wedge block 5. When unlocked, the second wedge block 6 does not contact the first wedge block 5, which can reduce the wear of the second wedge block 6 and the inner wall of the adjustment seat 3.

[0037] Key references Figure 7-9 The top wall of the sliding channel 31 is a horizontal plane, and the top surface of the second wedge 6 is a horizontal plane that mates with the top wall of the sliding channel 31. The tight fit between the two planes further secures the locking of the adjustment tube 4. Furthermore, the flat top wall of the sliding channel 31 also restricts axial rotation of the adjustment tube 4. Furthermore, a limiting slide 46 is provided along the front-to-back direction at the bottom of the inner cavity 41 of the adjustment tube 4. The bottom of the first wedge 5 mates with the limiting slide 46. The limiting slide 46 facilitates the sliding of the first wedge 5 while also restricting its circumferential rotation.

[0038] Key references Figure 7 The top surface of the first wedge block 5 is provided with a protrusion 51 along the front-to-back direction, and the bottom of the second wedge block 6 is provided with a groove 61 that cooperates with the protrusion 51, so that the second wedge block 6 can only move forward and backward relative to the first wedge block 5. The mounting hole 42 can limit the left and right rotation of the second wedge block 6. Therefore, the groove 61 cooperates with the protrusion 51 to further limit the circumferential rotation of the first wedge block 5. Specifically, the protrusion 51 is provided in the middle of the top surface of the first wedge block 5, with inclined surfaces on both sides of the protrusion 51. The bottom of the second wedge block 6 is provided with inclined surfaces on both sides of the groove 61. These two inclined surfaces abut to achieve an oblique wedge fit.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment, a vertical mounting tube 9 can be provided at one end of the adjustment tube 4 , and the seat cushion 1 is fixed on the top of the mounting tube 9 so that the seat cushion 1 does not interfere with the arrangement of the adjustment seat 3 .

[0040] Key references Figure 3-4 The other end of the adjusting tube 4 is provided with an L-shaped limiting sleeve 43. The middle portion of the screw rod 7 is provided with a step 71. The limiting sleeve 43 is sleeved on the screw rod 7, with one end of the limiting sleeve 43 abutting against the step 71. The other end of the limiting sleeve 43 is fixed to the side wall of the other end of the adjusting tube 4. The knob 8 abuts against the limiting sleeve 43. Since the limiting sleeve 43 is fixed to the other end of the adjusting tube 4, the two ends of the limiting sleeve 43 abut against the step 71 and the knob 8, respectively, preventing the screw rod 7 from moving forward and backward, thereby allowing the first wedge 5 to move forward and backward. In addition, gaskets 44 are provided between the two ends of the limiting sleeve 43, the step 71, and the knob 8 to reduce friction between the knob 8, the screw rod 7, and the limiting sleeve 43.

[0041] Specifically, one end of the limiting sleeve 43 extends into the inner cavity 41 of the adjusting tube 4 to be sleeved on the screw 7, and the outer diameter of the other end of the limiting sleeve 43 is larger than the outer diameter of the adjusting tube 4, and fits against the side wall of the other end of the adjusting tube 4, so that the limiting sleeve 43 is L-shaped, and the other end of the limiting sleeve 43 and the side wall of the other end of the adjusting tube 4 can be fixed by screws.

[0042] Key references Figure 7 The top surface of the adjusting tube 4 is provided with a gear mark 45 on one side of the mounting hole 42. The gear mark 45 can remind the user to record the seat gear that suits him / her, which is convenient for consumers to use.

[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the design of this case. Any equivalent changes made based on the key design of this case shall fall within the scope of protection of this case.
