  • Patent number: 11033775
    Abstract: A swingable exercise bicycle mechanism includes a base frame, two fastening seats at the front and rear, two extension springs arranged symmetrically in pairs connecting with the fastening seats, at least one sliding shaft extending between and being supported by the two fastening seats, a slider arranged on the sliding shaft, and a buffer arranged between each of the two fastening seats and the slider. An exercise bicycle is secured onto the top surface of slider. When a user swings their body on the exercise bicycle, the slider causes the fastening seats to rotate, and simultaneously generate a torque in the opposite direction, which enhances the swinging effect of the exercise bicycle. By moving the user's body back and forth, the exercise bicycle applies reciprocating component forces, which causes shifting of the slider, whereby damping by the buffer device is overcome to achieve the effect of intense exercise.

  • Publication number: 20110196607
    Abstract: A navigation method and an electronic apparatus with navigation function are disclosed. The method includes the following steps. When it is navigated to a substantial junction of an ordinary road and an elevated road, a detection signal outputted from a detector of the electronic apparatus is read, wherein the detection signal indicates variations in a physical quantity along at least two directional axes. Next, a determination regarding whether the electronic apparatus is on the elevated road is made according to the detection signal. If the electronic apparatus is on the elevated road, it is navigated to the elevated road. If the electronic apparatus is not on the elevated road, the navigation proceeds based on the ordinary road. According to the embodiment of this method, the navigation can be made accurately and in time when it is navigated to the junction.

  • Publication number: 20110006273
    Abstract: Scissor jacks are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a scissor jack includes a base, a saddle, a leadscrew, and a pair of arms. Each arm is rotatably coupled to the base and the saddle, and each arm is hinged at an elbow. A locking nut member having a threaded surface complementary to the leadscrew is rotatably coupled to one of the arms. The locking nut member is rotatable between an engaged configuration in which the threaded surface engages the leadscrew and a released configuration in which the threaded surface is disengaged from the leadscrew. The saddle is movable toward or away from the base without rotating the leadscrew while the locking nut member is at the released configuration, and the locking nut member must be at the engaged configuration for rotation of the leadscrew to cause the saddle to move toward or away from the base.
