DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0019] Hereunder, the utility model with the drawings and embodiments are described in detail.

[0020] FIGS. 1-7 show the embodiment in this utility model, dual function stationary bike, that includes the following that coordinate: the components of the central body 1, the shift mechanism 2, the bidirectional resistance adjustment mechanism 3, the screen adjustment mechanism 4; among them, the components of the central body 1 include those that are coordinated to comply with the stationary bike function: the base components 11, the handlebar components 12, the seat components 13, the resistance assembly 14 and the pedals components 15. The shift mechanisms 2 is installed between the base components 11 and the handlebar components 12 and regulates and fixes the relative position between the handlebar components 12 and those of the base 11 to perform the two different functions of the stationary bike. The shift mechanism 2 includes: elliptical plate 1 1111 fixed in the front tube 111 of the base components 11, elliptical plate 2 1121 fixed in the rear tube 112 of the base components 11 and elliptical plate 3 1211 fixed in the handlebar bar 121 of the handlebar components 12. The front tube 111, the rear tube 112 and the handlebar bar 121 are articulated with a pin to guarantee that the elliptical plates 1 1111, 2 1121 and 3 1211 coaxially rotate over the articulation point. In the elliptical plate 1 1111 there is a positioning hole 1 11111; in the elliptical plate 2 1121, the positioning hole 2 11211; and the elliptical plate 3 1211 has a strap spring pin 12111, which pin coordinates with the positioning holes 1 11111 and 2 11211 respectively to fix the position and carry out the function shift.

[0021] The described bidirectional resistance adjustment mechanism 3 is installed in the upper part of the handlebar bar 121; it includes the central body of the adjustment mechanism 31, which adjustment device 32 coordinates with the resistance assembly 14 to regulate the resistance. The adjustment device 32 has a coaxial bar 33 that protrudes the two ends of the main body 31. Each end of said bar 33 has a knob 34. When turning each of them, 34 can activate the rotation of the coaxial bar 34 and the coordination between the adjustment device 32 and the resistance assembly 14 to reach the purpose of regulating the resistance.

[0022] The described screen adjustment mechanism 4 is installed in the cross bar 122 of the handlebar components 12, including: the central body of the panel 41, which rotates over the rotation axis 42 and has a position stop 411. The rotation 42 has a protruding point to limit the position 421. The position stop 411 and the protruding point to limit the position 421 are coordinated to guarantee that the central body of the panel 41 can only rotate 180 over the rotation axis 42. On the other hand, there is a fixation slot 412 in the central body of the panel 41 and a fixation point 422 in the rotation axis 42. Both are coordinated to make the temporary fixation of the central body of the panel 41.

[0023] During its use, this utility model works as an ordinary horizontal stationary bike in its normal operation. The user exercises while seated in the seat holding the handles. If he wants to shift to the vertical stationary bike function, the spring pin is elevated; the handlebar components are moved to perform the coaxial rotation through the articulation point of the plates 1, 2 and 3. The spring pin makes the movement along the elliptical plate until automatically finding the positioning hole in the front tube and fixes the position. Through the shift mechanism, the components of the handlebar can rotate and fix their angle to transform into vertical stationery bike.

[0024] The user can exercise placing the feet in the pedals and the hands in the handles from the other direction. This way the shift is reached free of the two functions, with a simple and easy to regulate structure.

[0025] In order to coordinate the bidirectional use function, this utility model also includes a bidirectional resistance adjustment mechanism that is installed in the upper part of the handlebar bar to guarantee that the user can easily regulate the resistance in both directions. Furthermore, in the cross bar of the handlebar components the screen adjustment mechanisms is installed to guarantee that the user, when exercising either sitting or vertically, can rotate the panel at any time to carry out an adjustment of 180 and read the data in the screen at both sides.
