- 2. Related Art
- A pedaling machine in the prior art has a resistance device that goes with pedaling. The user sits on the seat of the pedaling machine, and step on the resistance device by both feet to train his or her body. Very often, the front end of the pedaling machine is erected with a handle for both hands of the user to grip, thereby assisting the exercise of pedaling. However, the conventional pedaling machine does not have a worktable. Thus, it is somewhat inconvenient.
- An objective of the invention is to provide an office pedaling device, which has a working surface thereon for users to exercise while working.
- To achieve the above-mentioned objective, the disclosed office pedaling device includes a base, a pedaling mechanism, and a working surface. The base stably stands on the ground. The pedaling mechanism is installed on the base. The base has a vertical pole, one end of which is fixed to the base and extends upward. The other end is provided with an undertaking element. The working surface is fixed to the undertaking element.
- These and other features, aspects and advantages of the invention will become apparent by reference to the following description and accompanying drawings which are given by way of illustration only, and thus are not limitative of the invention, and wherein:
-
FIG. 1 is a three-dimensional bottom view of the first embodiment of the invention; -
FIG. 2 is a planar side view of the first embodiment of the invention; -
FIG. 3 is a locally enlarged view of the control unit inFIG. 2 ; -
FIG. 4 is a planar side view of the first embodiment of the invention, showing that the control unit can be separated and disposed on a table plate; -
FIG. 5 is a three-dimensional bottom view of the second embodiment of the invention; -
FIG. 6 is a three-dimensional exploded view of the second embodiment of the invention; -
FIG. 7 is a planar side view of the second embodiment of the invention; and -
FIGS. 8 and 9 are locally enlarged views of the adjusting mechanism inFIG. 7 , showing the states of the adjusting mechanism. - The present invention will be apparent from the following detailed description, which proceeds with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein the same references relate to the same elements.
- Please refer to
FIGS. 1 and 2 for a first embodiment of the office pedaling device according to the invention. The device includes a pedaling machine and a working surface. In this embodiment, the working surface is aflat table plate 15. The pedaling machine 1 has abase 10 standing on the ground. Thebase 10 includes achassis 101 and anenclosure 102 on thechassis 101. Theenclosure 102 has aseat 11 thereon. Moreover, theenclosure 102 has acrank pedaling mechanism 12 inside for a user to pedal. The user can thus exercise by pedaling thereon. In this embodiment, theseat 11 is installed above thepedaling mechanism 12. When the user sits on theseat 11, his or her feet step on thepedaling mechanism 12 downward to exercise. This configuration forms a vertical pedaling machine. However, the invention is not limited to this particular case. This is only an example of the invention. - The front end of the
base 10 is extended upward with apole 13. In this embodiment, thepole 13 is erected at the front end of theenclosure 102 of thebase 10. The top end of thepole 13 has anundertaking element 14. Thetable plate 15 is fixed on the undertakingelement 14 to form the working surface. It is in front of theseat 11 for the user sitting on theseat 11 of the pedaling machine 1 to use conveniently. - Besides, the pedaling machine 1 has a
control unit 16 and a detection unit (not shown) electrically connected with thecontrol unit 16. Thecontrol unit 16 has ajunction 161 to connect with thetable plate 15. It can be connected with thetable plate 15 or, as shown inFIG. 4 , detached to form a movable device that can be placed on thetable plate 15 and arbitrarily slide. The detection unit detects the action data of the pedaling mechanism, and sends the measured data electronically to thecontrol unit 16. Thecontrol unit 16 receives the signal to control thepedaling mechanism 12. Thecontrol unit 16 controls the pedaling device in either wired or wireless type. The transmitted signal can be analog or digital. - Please refer to
FIG. 5 toFIG. 9 for a second embodiment of the invention. A primary difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the pedaling machine 1′ has an adjusting mechanism A to adjust the position of thetable plate 15. The adjusting mechanism A includes a slidingrail 131 on the top end of thepole 13 and a displacing element at the bottom end of the undertakingelement 14. The displacing element is asliding block 141 that can slide in the slidingrail 131. In this embodiment, the slidingrail 131 extends toward theseat 11 of the pedaling machine 1′. Theundertaking element 14 is installed via thesliding block 141 in the slidingrail 131 in a slideable way. As shown inFIGS. 8 and 9 , thetable plate 15 adjusts the position thereof as theundertaking element 14 slides in the slidingrail 131. Anurging device 17 provided on the slidingrail 131 urges and positions the slidingblock 141 in the slidingrail 131. Theurging device 17 is a rotational axle that goes through a connectinghole 18 at the bottom of the slidingrail 131 to urges against the bottom of thesliding block 141. When rotating, the urgingdevice 17 produces an upward displacement to urge against the slidingblock 141, thereby fixing the slidingblock 141 in thesiding rail 131. - It should be mentioned that, as shown in
FIGS. 5 and 7 , theenclosure 102 and thepedaling mechanism 12 therein in the embodiment are in front of thechassis 101. Theseat 11 is located behind thechassis 101. There is abackrest 111 on the rear side of the seat 1. Therefore, the user can sit on theseat 11 and lie on thebackrest 111, while using both feet to pedal thepedaling mechanism 12 forward. This configuration is a recumbent pedaling machine. Again, the style of the pedaling machine is not this particular example. - Although the invention has been described with reference to specific embodiments, this description is not meant to be construed in a limiting sense. Various modifications of the disclosed embodiments, as well as alternative embodiments, will be apparent to people skilled in the art. Therefore, it is contemplated that the appended claims will cover all modifications that fall within the true scope of the invention.
