Abstract

An elevation-adjusting device serves for a seat of an exercise bicycle. The exercise bicycle is capable of standing on the ground. The device comprises a positioning device having a buckling post; the buckling post having a buckling section; an outer tube; an inner tube installed within the outer tube; the elevation of the inner tube being adjustable with respect to the outer tube; the inner tube being fixed to the outer tube by using the positioning device to be buckled into one of a plurality of positioning holes of the inner tube; and each of the positioning hole having a respective lip which obliquely protrudes from an inner wall at a lower end of the positioning hole; thereby, the buckling section of the buckling post of the positioning device being tightly secured to the positioning hole and the inner tube being lifted easily and smoothly.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An elevation-adjusting device for a seat of an exercise bicycle; the exercise bicycle being capable of standing on the ground; the exercise bicycle moving when the user treads upon treadles of the exercise bicycle; the device comprising: 
 a positioning device having a buckling post; the buckling post having a buckling section;    an outer tube;    an inner tube installed within the outer tube; the elevation of the inner tube being adjustable with respect to the outer tube; the inner tube being fixed to the outer tube by using the positioning device to be buckled into one of a plurality of positioning holes of the inner tube; and    each of the positioning hole having a respective lip which obliquely protrudes from an inner wall at a lower end of the positioning hole; thereby, the buckling section of the buckling post of the positioning device being tightly secured to the positioning hole and the inner tube being lifted easily and smoothly.    
   
   
       2 . An elevation-adjusting device for a seat of an exercise bicycle; the exercise bicycle being capable of standing on the ground; the exercise bicycle moving when the user treads upon treadles of the exercise bicycle; the device comprising: 
 an outer tube extended from the body; an inner tube being installed within the outer tube; a top of the inner tube having a seat;    a positioning base installed near a top of the outer tube; the positioning base being a hollow cylinder and having an inner hollow portion; an inner wall of the positioning base at the end of the inner hollow portion being formed with female thread; each of an upper end and a lower end of the positioning base having a respective round hole; the positioning base being communicated to the inner hollow portion through a via hole; and    a positioning device formed by a main body, a spring and a cover; a front end of the main body being a front portion with male thread; an annular neck being formed behind the front portion having a radius smaller than that of the front portion; a middle section being formed behind the annular neck; the radius of the middle section being identical to that of the front portion; a combining end of a straight groove extending backwards from the middle section; the combining end being tightly engaged to a cover; an inner side of the cover being formed with straight embedding strips; the main body being installed with a penetrating round receiving groove at the front portion for receiving the spring and a buckling post; one end of the spring resisting against a buckling section of the buckling post; a neck section extending from the buckling section of the buckling post; the radius of the neck section being smaller than that of the buckling section; a distal end of the neck section being extended with a screw section; the screw section having a smaller radius than that of the neck section; the screw section having male thread; the screw section being screwed to the cover; another end of the spring resisting against the cover; a front end of the main body screwing into the female thread of the positioning base; pins passing through the round holes so as to resist against the annular neck of the main body;    wherein by above structure, the elevation of the inner tube is adjustable with respect to the outer tube easily and smoothly.
